"A friend of mine is in the hospital, and I have to go back now. I'm a little worried about her. Could you please take care of her for me for one night? Don't worry, I'll come over first thing tomorrow morning!"
Xun Ting had a smile on his lips and his tone was ingratiating.
After all, in their friendship, it was always Wen Xiyang who helped her, and she had never helped Wen Xiyang in any way.
“Okay, I happen to be on the night shift tonight.”
"Thank you, room number 5019, remember to be good-natured." Xun Ting ran off in a flash.
Oh my god, she's having such a hard time!
I checked the time on my phone; it was 8:42, so I still had time to get back!
Looking further down, there was a mountain of missed calls and text messages—damn! They were all from the villains! She always kept her phone on silent, and now she was truly doomed!
She couldn't wait to call back, and the other end answered almost immediately. "Hello, Mr. Huo, I accidentally turned my phone off...on silent today, so I didn't see your call."
"Um."
"Mr. Huo, please don't be angry, okay?"
"You don't answer the phone or reply to texts when I'm not around?" The male voice on the other end was magnetic and husky, carrying a strong sense of intimidation.
"No, no, no! I didn't see it. I forgot to turn on the sound! Otherwise, I would have replied to your message nonstop!"
"One phone call a day, but not a single text message?"
"I... something happened to me today, I was so busy I forgot, sob sob~ And today isn't over yet, right? I was thinking of texting and calling you when I got home."
"Try seeing you get close to another man again."
"I didn't! I've been utterly wronged!"
"Today, at the hospital."
"..."
After listening for a moment, he suddenly realized who it was. "I just went to the doctor to ask him something."
"Do you need to scratch your head to ask a question?"
"..." There's no way to respond to that. Maybe the second male lead was itching to rub his head against hers at that moment?
At nine o'clock sharp, Huo Lin received another message from Gu Zhu on his computer: his wife had not yet arrived home.
"Aren't you home yet?"
"Damn it! I had twenty minutes left to get home, but... you were chatting with me and I forgot!" Xun Ting was utterly dejected.
The phone I took off my ear showed 9:01.
"Where are you? I'll have Assistant Gu come pick you up."
"No, I'm not going back tonight. I don't want to be bitten by a dog." Xun Ting doubted her life just thinking about the dog getting close to her. She would rather stay out overnight.
"If you knew you were afraid, wouldn't you have gone back sooner?"
"Master Huo, I feel more and more that you resemble someone."
"who?"
"My biological father!" Xun Ting said in an extremely serious tone, as if it were true.
Huo Lin's face darkened on the other end of the phone. Was she implying that he was old?
"If I were your father, I would beat you." The deep male voice was full of threat.
She then added a sentence, instantly softening her tone, "Your husband will only spoil you."
Which one to choose?
"Would you beat me every day if I were your dad?" Xun Ting thought having a dad wouldn't be bad, especially a rich villain dad like that, so nice!
"Yeah, I'm tired of beating people up. Let's switch bodyguards."
Damn! Is this even human language? They're replacing someone after they're tired of beating people? Being the villain's daughter really isn't easy.
"I don't want to be your daughter anymore."
"Then be my wife."
"..." Why does she have the feeling that the villain is flirting with her?
"Send your location to Assistant Gu, he'll come pick you up in a bit. We'll let it go today, but if you dare to come home late again, or get close to other men again, you'll see what happens."
