Chapter 102
Huo Changfeng's Adam's apple rolled violently. Looking at Mu Qingxuan's curled eyelashes trembling slightly, his heart felt like it was being scratched repeatedly by a cat's claws.
His thumb gently stroked her red lower lip, and his fingertips touched the tiny teeth marks left by her biting too hard, and his breathing instantly became hot.
"I'm sorry, I'm late."
His voice was low and hoarse, filled with unrelieved guilt.
Before he finished speaking, he leaned over and kissed her on the lips.
The kiss was as gentle as a feather, with a cautious tentativeness.
Huo Changfeng held the back of her head with his palm, and ran his fingertips through her messy hair, feeling her slight tremor.
Mu Qingxuan froze at first, and then all her strength seemed to be drained away.
She slumped in his arms, her hands unconsciously clutching at the fabric of his shirt.
His nose brushed against her cheek, his breath filled with the fresh scent of her shower gel, and his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
After a long time, Huo Changfeng reluctantly let her go.
His forehead rested against hers, their breaths mingling together.
He looked at Mu Qingxuan's blurry eyes, and gently rubbed her red eyes with his thumb, but found that her eyelids had begun to droop uncontrollably.
The next second, Mu Qingxuan's head tilted and leaned directly on his shoulder.
Her even breath sprayed on his neck, and the warm touch made him shiver all over.
Huo Changfeng's heart instantly softened into a pool of spring water.
He lowered his head and looked at the person in his arms. The moonlight poured in through the window, casting a soft halo on her profile.
There were dark circles under her eyes and her brows were tightly furrowed, as if even in her dreams she was not at peace.
Huo Changfeng's throat tightened, and he reached out and gently smoothed the wrinkles between her brows, his movements so gentle as if he was touching a rare treasure.
When he carried Mu Qingxuan to the bed, she unconsciously rubbed against his arms, murmuring incoherently in her sleep.
Huo Changfeng's heart skipped a beat. He lowered his head and placed a kiss on the top of her head, coaxing her in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
He carefully tucked in the quilt for her and stood by the bed for a long time, watching her until her breathing became long and even, then he tiptoed out of the room.
The floor clock in the study pointed to two o'clock in the morning, and the copper pendulum swung with a dull sound.
The cigarette between Huo Jianye's fingers flickered, and there was a mountain of cigarette butts in the ashtray. The curling green smoke formed a mist net under the warm yellow wall lamp.
Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, he looked up.
It’s Huo Changfeng.
"sit."
Huo Jianye pushed over a cup of warm water, and the porcelain cup made a crisp sound when it hit the table.
After Huo Changfeng sat down, he told the whole story of tonight in detail.
Huo Jianye put out his cigarette, and sparks flew into the glass ashtray.
He stared at the dark circles under his son's eyes and asked the key question: "Does Feihua know about this?"
His voice was a little hoarse.
Huo Changfeng lowered his eyebrows: "I don't know."
"But he should at least take care of the person next to him. I warned him a long time ago that if he indulges Mu Qianqian to cause trouble again, don't blame me for not caring about family affection."
The moonlight shone through the cracks in the window, cutting out alternating light and dark lines on Huo Changfeng's face.
The tail end of his tone was extremely long, carrying a chilling chill.
Huo Jianye opened his mouth but said nothing.
Huo Changfeng raised his eyes, as if he knew what he was going to say, and said, "Dad, don't worry, I won't do anything out of line."
Huo Jianye rubbed his swollen and painful brows, sighed, and said, "I know you know your limits, so just go ahead and do it. Our family has been bullied, so we must get back at them."
Huo Changfeng then smiled and nodded.

the next day.
The morning mist had not yet dissipated, and the carved iron gate of the Shi family made a harsh creaking sound.
Sun Qiumei staggered and fell out of the threshold, her floral cloth bundle falling onto the bluestone slabs, revealing half a moldy tortilla.
Today is the last day that Shi Feihua can issue the order to expel guests.
Mu Dashan and Sun Qiumei originally wanted to stay, but they didn't expect Shi Feihua to be so heartless as to kick them out.
Sun Qiumei had never suffered such hardship in her life, and her face was twisted with anger.
She dug her nails deep into the back of Mu Qianqian's neck and her saliva sprayed on Mu Qianqian's face.
"You bastard! Seeing your mother being bullied like this, you can't even fart."
"If I had known you were so useless, I should have strangled you to death."
Mu Qianqian, contrary to her usual behavior, did not react at all and just stared at the package on Sun Qiumei's back.
A strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Sun Qiumei's scolding was like a blunt knife cutting flesh. She suddenly laughed out loud, revealing her shaky teeth: "If you hadn't insisted on forcing Mu Dongjie into Capital High School..."
"Shut up!"
Sun Qiumei slapped her daughter hard in the face and was about to continue scolding her.
Shi Feihua on the second floor suddenly smashed down a celadon vase, and the fragments exploded at the feet of the mother and daughter: "Get out! Get out now!"
The neighbors poked their heads out from the cracks in the door, and their complaints mixed with the morning mist.
Sun Qiumei's hands, which were tightly clenched around the bundle, began to tremble. She swallowed and dared not make any more noise.
Just as she was about to turn around, a group of policemen in uniform approached rapidly.
Lu Jingfeng stood at the front, the police badge on his shoulder reflecting a sharp light in the morning sun.
"Who is Mu Qianqian?"
He asked in a cold voice, but his eyes had already fallen on Mu Qianqian who was hiding behind Sun Qiumei with the help of his sixth sense.
His eyes narrowed dangerously.
Mu Qianqian avoided his gaze and did not dare to look directly at Lu Jingfeng.
Suddenly, Lu Jingfeng waved his hand and signaled the police behind him to come forward: "Take the person away."
Mu Qianqian's face changed, and she grabbed Sun Qiumei's arm and asked in panic, "Why are you arresting me?"
Lu Jingfeng snorted coldly and said, "You are suspected of being an accomplice to kidnapping and hooliganism. We will take you back for investigation according to the law."
Mu Qianqian widened her eyes, looked confused, and struggled desperately.
She said: "I have never done these things. You have found the wrong person."
Mu Qianqian violently shook off the police officer's hand, but used too much force and crashed into Sun Qiumei.
Sun Qiumei didn't react and staggered backward. The blue cloth bag on her back fell to the ground with a "clack", and the clothes inside scattered like torn cotton.
The air froze in an instant.
Lu Jingfeng's breathing suddenly became heavier and his pupils trembled.
I saw a small medicine bottle hidden in a pile of clothes, and the white powder inside was particularly eye-catching.
He went forward to pick up the medicine bottle, and remembered that according to the transcript, Mu Qingxuan lost consciousness after inhaling a drug.
Lu Jingfeng's suspicious gaze moved from Mu Qianqian to Sun Qiumei.
Mu Qianqian also exclaimed: "Mom, what is that bottle you put in?"
Sun Qiumei was also confused.
Before she left, she stole a lot of treasures from the Shi family.
Could it be that there was something valuable in that small bottle, so it was put in together?
Sun Qiumei knocked her head and couldn't remember.
But she subconsciously threw herself on Lu Jingfeng: "Give me back my things."
"Even if you are a police officer, you cannot steal our things!"
