"Why are you back?"
The man spoke, his voice a little hoarse.
"I... left something behind before. I'll come back to get it this time."
Mingyao lowered his head and whispered.
She knelt down and changed her shoes. When she got up, she smelled a strong smell of alcohol on the tip of her nose, and there was also a hint of rose perfume.
It turned out that Huo Xiao had walked in front of her and was looking down at her steadily. The light fell from the top of his head, and his high brow bones cast heavy shadows on his eyes, making his gaze extraordinarily deep.
Mingyao trembled and lowered her eyes to avoid his sight.
"Brother, you've been drinking..."
"Hmm." The man responded, "We have a social event tonight."
Huo Yan had told himself before that his eldest brother was always very busy at work, and sometimes he didn't even have time to sleep and rest.
She thought for a while, went to the refrigerator, took out honey and mixed it with a glass of water.
"Brother, drink some hydrolysis bar."
Huo Xiao stared at the glass of honey water and reached out to take it.
The condensed water droplets on the glass slid down, and their fingertips touched each other.
Almost at the same time, both of them remembered the last time Huo Xiao came back drunk in the middle of the night and Mingyao took care of him.
Mingyao opened her mouth and pointed upstairs:
"Brother, let me go up and clean up first."
"Well, you go ahead..."
Huo Xiao responded nonchalantly, staring at the cup in his hand.
Mingyao turned around and walked up the stairs to the second floor. Halfway there, he looked down and saw Huo Xiao sitting on the sofa, drinking water in sips, looking a little lonely.
Alas, although Huo Xiao looks very good to outsiders, it must be a lot of pressure to support such a large business by one person.
It's not easy for him either...
There was a 'squeak' sound.
Mingyao opened the bedroom door and turned on the light. The room was still familiar with the layout, without any change. The room was clean and should be cleaned.
This room was specially renovated when Huo Yan and she got married, and Mingyao participated in the whole process. The overall style of the room is a bit retro.
The green patterned wallpaper, chandeliers, curtains and landscape paintings on the walls were all chosen together.
There is an armchair by the window, where Huo Yan often sits and reads...
Feeling a burst of sadness in her heart, Mingyao sniffed to suppress this intense feeling.
Mingyao slowly walked to the wooden cupboard and opened the drawer. There were some notebooks and stationery inside. Mingyao sorted it out briefly and found the mobile hard drive that stored college photos.
Mingyao walked into the cloakroom in the bedroom and found a few storage bags to store things in.
After walking out with the bag, Mingyao looked up and was startled.
Suddenly there was a tall man in the room.
At some point, Huo Xiao walked in quietly.
With his back to her, he stood by the window and looked into the distance. He took off the suit jacket he was wearing just now and was wearing a dark gray shirt. His shoulders were wide and his waist was narrow, and his back muscles had obvious undulations.
There seemed to be some restless molecules floating in the air.
Mingyao clutched the bag tightly with her fingers. She felt something was wrong, but she couldn't explain it.
The man turned his head slightly to look at her, his pupils were dark, and the expression on his face could even be called cold.
"Brother...I'll pack up my things and leave soon."
Mingyao quickly walked to the cabinet and swept everything on it into the bag.
Feeling a little panicked, she wanted to leave here quickly.
"Let me help you." The man said as he walked over, his leather shoes making a subtle sound on the wooden floor.
Mingyao bit her lip and moved a little faster.
A big hand with sharp bones pressed on her hand with warmth and did not move.
Obviously, it was not an accidental touch, but a deliberate one.
"Brother..." Mingyao looked at him in horror.
The distance between the two was very close, and the lights in the room were bright, making the aggression and desire in the man's eyes clearly visible.
Mingyao's body trembled, and she took a step back but stopped because her hand was being held tightly by the man, and both of their hands were sticky and wet.
"Brother, are you drunk? I, I am Mingyao..."
The man suddenly smiled.
Of course he knew she was Mingyao.
He also knew that she was his twin brother's wife.
A woman who annoyed him but left him wondering what to do.
Although she had never deliberately seduced him, Huo Xiao did not think she was innocent.
She gave him a taste of jealousy for the first time and plunged him into the pain of not getting what he wanted.
His patience had been reaching its limit for a long time, but she took the initiative to throw herself into the trap.
How could he let go of this opportunity?
Obviously, he was the one who met her first that day...
She should be his.
"I, I'm going back first..."
Mingyao suddenly pulled his hand back, didn't want anything anymore, lowered his head, turned around and ran towards the door.
"Your parents haven't retired yet."
The man spoke calmly, and his tone seemed to be chatting.
When she married Huo Yan, he did some background research and checked her family background.
One is an engineer and the other is a university teacher.
Early fifties, not retired yet.
Even he was a little surprised that he remembered it so clearly.
The woman took two steps forward, and then she was shaken all over, her steps stopped, and she turned to look at him in disbelief. Her face was pale, her body was trembling, and her voice was trembling.
"what are you up to......"
During the time he lived in the Huo family, Mingyao knew how capable Huo Xiao was, and also knew that he was a man of his word.
The man walked up to her slowly, raised his hand and touched her hair.
"As long as you stay here obediently, I won't do anything..."
Mingyao looked away in embarrassment.
Because of her similar appearance to Huo Yan, she has always had a natural sense of trust in Huo Xiao.
In her heart, she really regards him as family!
How could he do this? !
She stared at him with red eyes, hatred in her eyes.
"You are like this, are you worthy of Huo Yan?!"
After listening to her words, the man's face did not show the embarrassment and shame she thought he had. Instead, he tilted his head and looked at her face with interest.
This was the first time he saw her show such an expression.
"Huo Yan told me in the hospital to take good care of you."
take care of me?
Is that how you take care of me?
Mingyao looked at him sarcastically, and when she was about to say something, she smelled the smell of alcohol on his body, and a conversation suddenly sounded in her mind.
I was also in this room at that time, but late at night.
The man's tone was gentle.
[Yao Yao, go and see your elder brother, he must be drunk...]
[Go and take a look. Brother is actually very stressed, but he just doesn’t show it...]
When Huo Yan said these words, she was sleepy and did it without thinking. Now that she thought about it carefully, she felt a little weird.
Huo Yan...did he really just let himself take care of Huo Xiao?
The woman suddenly paused, and the look on her face became dazed and a bit confused.
Huo Xiao didn't know what she was thinking, but she was definitely not thinking about him.
He reached out and pinched her face, staring into her eyes to make sure she was looking at him.
"Didn't you live here very well before? You will continue to live here from now on. You are not allowed to leave again..."
He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, which was close to him. The moist and hot breath sprayed on her face, and her body tensed up and the hair stood on end.
The man raised his hand and took off her windbreaker.
Mingyao only wore a white T-shirt and jeans. There was no wind in the room, but she began to shiver.
Huo Xiao lowered his head and came close to her face. Mingyao pushed him hard, then took two steps back, tripping on the clothes on the ground and almost falling.
Her waist sank, and a strong hand hugged her.
Huo Xiao wanted to kiss her lips, but the woman turned her head and avoided it. He didn't care. He grabbed the back of her neck with one hand and gently licked the side of her face. The creamy white jade smelled sweet.
It doesn't matter. He was in no hurry.
Save the delicious food for last.
"No, don't be here..."
Mingyao closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling, and a string of tears fell from the corners of her eyes.
At least.
At least not here.
"good."
Huo Xiao held her hip with one hand, let her wrap her legs around him, dropped both slippers, and walked up to the third floor like a child.
