After an unknown amount of time, in a half-asleep state, Qin Suisui felt her body being gently wiped by a warm towel.
She lazily opened her eyes and looked down to see her senior brother carefully washing her calves with a towel.
Upon regaining consciousness, I was immediately struck by aches and pains in my body.
Thinking of their passionate encounter last night, her face flushed slightly, and she kicked him with her leg.
"woke up!"
Huo Zhongyuan leaned over and his deep, hoarse voice rang in her ear.
"Um!"
Qin Suisui slowly got up, looked out the window, and saw that it was already bright outside.
Through the dappled sunlight filtering through the plain-colored curtains, Qin Suisui knew it was going to be another sunny day.
"Senior brother, what time is it?"
She looked around but couldn't find her phone; it must have been left in the living room last night.
"It's just past eight o'clock."
Huo Zhongyuan put down the towel in his hand and sat down next to her.
Are you still sleepy?
Qin Suisui glared at him but didn't reply.
She threw off the thin blanket, got out of bed, and went to the shower to wash herself.
The moment her toes touched the ground, the soreness in her body made her legs go weak. If her senior brother hadn't been there to support her, she might have collapsed to the ground.
"I'll carry you over."
Huo Zhongyuan's voice carried a hint of satisfied laughter.
"No need, I can go by myself."
Qin Suisui struggled to get down, but Huo Zhongyuan gently patted her buttocks.
"You can keep messing with me."
His voice was hoarse, a deliberate attempt to suppress his emotions.
Qin Suisui was so frightened that she dared not move for a moment.
Only after Huo Zhongyuan carried her into the bathroom and put her on the ground did she glare at him, push him out, and close the bathroom door.
Through the door, he could faintly hear Huo Zhongyuan's cheerful laughter.
"Hmph~"
Qin Suisui reached out and rubbed her sore muscles, wondering why she, who also exercised regularly, was not as physically fit as her senior brother.
After she finished washing up in the bathroom, changed her clothes, and walked out of the bedroom, she immediately saw a figure busy in the kitchen.
She stopped and leaned against the wall, watching her senior brother's tall and busy figure.
He rolled up his sleeves, revealing beautifully defined muscles in his arms.
From behind, he has broad shoulders, narrow hips, and a lean waist; every movement exudes a power that is ready to be unleashed.
This is her man, and a slight smile played on her lips.
A faint aroma wafted from the kitchen, awakening her hungry stomach.
With a smile in her eyes, she walked to the dining table, sat down, and rested her chin on her hand while looking at him.
Huo Zhongyuan, carrying the tray, turned around and saw Sui Sui smiling and looking at him.
Are you hungry?
"Mmm~, I'm so hungry."
Qin Suisui's voice was languid and comfortable.
Huo Zhongyuan walked to the dining table and placed the bowls and plates on the tray in front of Qin Suisui.
A plate of ham and vegetable rolls, a small bowl of vegetable and chicken porridge, a few slices of kiwi, and a glass of milk.
"So much? I can't finish it!"
"How much is that?"
Huo Zhongyuan looked at her with a meaningful gaze.
"Sui Sui, you need to nourish your body more!"
The deeper meaning in her words made Qin Suisui's cheeks burn.
"Huo Zhongyuan!"
She spoke in a coquettish tone and rolled her eyes at him.
The atmosphere between the two was sweet and warm.
After breakfast, Huo Zhongyuan dropped Sui Sui off at her company building and then drove to his own company.
As soon as he entered the company, his assistant, Guan Shuzhan, came forward to greet him.
"Mr. Huo, Prosecutor Mu from the procuratorate called the company, saying they haven't been able to reach you!"
"Okay, I understand!"
Huo Zhongyuan glanced down at his phone, only to find it was dead when he woke up in the morning.
Seeing that it was almost time to go to work, I realized there wasn't enough time to charge my phone, so I just wanted to charge it when I got back to the office.
I wonder why Mukfi is in such a hurry to find him.
He walked into the office, sat down at his desk, and dialed Mukfi's mobile phone, which was answered immediately.
"Huo Zhongyuan, Mr. Huo, how come you, a busy person who is always on 24 hours a day, have had your phone switched off from last night until this morning, making it impossible for me to contact you?"
When Mu Kefei received Huo Zhongyuan's call, his heart finally settled down.
He kept grumbling and complaining.
"And Qin Lu, we haven't been able to contact him since this morning. Were you and Qin Lu together last night?"
The fact that two such busy people couldn't be contacted is quite intriguing.
If it weren't for an urgent matter, he would have already started mocking him.
"Let's get down to business!"
Huo Zhongyuan directly interrupted his daydreaming.
Mukfi's voice choked, he swallowed hard, and laughed in exasperation.
"Alright, alright, let's get down to business."
"Did you tell Qin Lu yesterday about the criminal record of Pang Yi in Old M that she asked you to deliver?"
Huo Zhongyuan: "I said it!"
"I did, but did you ask Attorney Qin how he found the other party's criminal record?"
Since last night, Mukfi had been eager to get information, and his voice rose several octaves in his anxiety.
Huo Zhongyuan was speechless. Last night, because he was sharing the same secret and happy thing with Sui Sui, he had forgotten to ask Sui Sui about it.
