Chapter 6: I Am He Jingyao
Editor: Atlas Studios
Outside the Su Family villa, a line of well-trained bodyguards stood in formation, as one luxury car after another occupied the entire main road…
Su Zixi felt dizzy… It was then that she realized she might have really provoked someone formidable.
The young Master He… Could he be from the legendary He Family, which practically controlled the lifeblood of Z Country’s economy?
What exactly were this man’s intentions? Su Zixi already sensed that things were not simple. If he was seeking revenge, there was no need for him to make such a grand spectacle!
He Jingyao sent her into the car, and he followed in as well.
The car started moving quickly, and the Su Family villa soon disappeared from her view. Su Zixi comforted herself, thinking that no matter what, she had at least escaped and wouldn’t have to marry that sixty-year-old man.
She turned her head back, only to find the man beside her staring at her without a blink.
Su Zixi’s heart skipped a beat, and she spoke with difficulty, “Master He, where are you taking me?”
“To my home first,” He Jingyao smiled faintly, “The doctor is waiting at home; he will heal the wounds on your face.”
She remembered that this man had just told Su Guo’an that she was his woman. Was he joking?
Summoning her courage, Su Zixi wanted to ask what exactly he planned to do, but the man suddenly smiled. His dark eyes seemed to sparkle, “Your name is Su Zixi?”
“Uh… yes.” Su Zixi was dazzled by his smile.
“I’m He Jingyao.” He said as he grabbed her hand and gave it a firm squeeze. His voice turned a bit hoarse, “Remember it?”
Su Zixi quickly nodded, “I remember.”
So, he really was a member of the famous He Family.
But her hand was still firmly held by him… His fingers were long and strong, with slight callouses…
Her heart trembled, and she instinctively tried to pull her hand back, but she failed.
He Jingyao looked at her deeply, then casually scratched her palm and interlocked his fingers with hers.
The gesture was too intimate… The itch seemed to travel from her palm straight to the tip of her heart… Su Zixi’s face flushed bright red!
He Jingyao suddenly let out a low laugh, “Your hand is really soft.”
Su Zixi’s voice was a bit embarrassed and angry, “Master He!”
Although they had done everything last night that should be done, to her, the man in front of her was still a stranger.
He Jingyao’s expression grew increasingly pleased.
This woman seemed quite interesting.
Su Zixi, flustered under his gaze, felt both embarrassed and uneasy. Fortunately, it wasn’t long before the car finally stopped at the entrance of the He Family’s mansion.
Su Zixi hurriedly opened the door and got out, only to be scooped up by He Jingyao as soon as she stood firm.
“I… I can walk by myself!”
Soon enough, He Jingyao carried her directly into the villa.
The male servants respectfully greeted him, but upon seeing Su Zixi in his arms, their mouths gaped wide enough to fit an egg.
Su Zixi felt all those surprised stares making her extremely uncomfortable…
“Where is Dr. Huo?” He Jingyao raised an eyebrow and asked.
“Here…” At the staircase on the second floor, a man responded lazily and sauntered downstairs, “Are you crippled or dying? Why did you call me here so urgently?”
He Jingyao glared at him, ignored him, and directly placed Su Zixi on the sofa.
Huo Yanhui had, of course, noticed that He Jingyao was carrying someone, but it wasn’t until he got downstairs that he realized… it was a woman?
He widened his eyes in disbelief! His handsome face looked a bit comical.
“What are you standing there for? Get over here!” He Jingyao turned around and saw Huo Yanhui looking dumbfounded, expressing his dissatisfaction.
Huo Yanhui, as if discovering a new continent, strode up to Su Zixi and examined her from head to toe, “A woman?”
Su Zixi abashedly responded, “Um.” Being a woman was hardly surprising. Were these people all out of their minds?
“A woman?” Huo Yanhui repeated, but this time he directed it at He Jingyao.
He Jingyao glanced at her and, with a hint of pride in his calm tone, said, “That’s right, she’s my woman. She was slapped in the face. Quickly, take a look at it!”
Huo Yanhui shook his head, making sure he wasn’t hallucinating, “Your illness is cured?”
“Why do you have so much nonsense to say?” He Jingyao couldn’t be bothered with him and gently patted Su Zixi’s head, “Don’t worry, with him here, you won’t be left with any scars at all!”
Although Huo Yanhui was full of questions and curiosity, seeing the young master’s urgency, he dutifully checked Su Zixi’s injury first.
He lifted Su Zixi’s face to examine it closely, only for He Jingyao to slap his hand away!
“What do you think you are doing?” He Jingyao’s eyes darkened.
