Chapter 262 - Lingering Warmth


    “You’re pressing on me,” Huo Zhen kindly reminded her as a sly smile spread across his face.


    Mo Yan was shocked and about to stand up in a panic. Unfortunately, Huo Zhen was one step ahead


    and used his uninjured hand to grab Mo Yan’s wrist. Seeing that Mo Yan was still struggling, he added


    in a serious tone, “You’d better listen to me, or else you’ll pull on my wound and I don’t know when it


    will heal.”


    At this, Mo Yan ceased to struggle.


    Her face turned even redder, and she didn’t know how to face Huo Zhen. She lowered her head and


    couldn’t believe that her voice was so soft. “Huo Zhen, what on earth do you want to do? You’re still


    injured; you can’t, right?”


    “You said I can’t?”


    Huo Zhen raised his eyebrows slightly. Had she just been provoking him?


    “I didn’t mean that. I… I meant… I meant it’s not convenient.” Knowing that Huo Zhen’s thoughts were


    elsewhere, Mo Yan exined in rm. Unfortunately, her painstaking exnation still sounded strange


    to Huo Zhen…


    It was even ambiguous.


    Sure enough, Huo Zhen had misunderstood Mo Yan’s meaning.


    He threw a meaningful smile at Mo Yan. “Is that so? It’s not inconvenient. I can eat you up with one


    hand.”


    Mo Yan was so stunned that she immediately escaped from Huo Zhen’s arms.


    She patted her chest, which was still heaving violently. Although they had been husband and wife for


    so long, they had not really taken thest step. Moreover, wasn’t his earlier flirting a little too direct?


    “Can’t you be more serious? Aren’t you afraid that others will see what happened just now? Since


    you’re Master Huo, you should have many visitors when you’re injured, right?”


    Thinking that he was the unattainable Huo Zhen, Mo Yan sighed faintly.


    If he had just been Luo Tao, Mo Yan was confident that through her own efforts, she could be


    someone as outstanding as him and make others sincerely feel that they were a good match. However,


    when she thought about him being favored by the heavens, the difference between them was like that


    between heaven and earth. No matter how hard she tried, others would think that she had struck lottery


    by getting hold of Huo Zhen.


    “No one wille to visit me,” Huo Zhen said lightly. He could also feel that Mo Yan was distant from


    him. He patted the side of his bed and motioned for Mo Yan to sit down, “The people who want to


    assassinate me are definitely rted to the Huo family. I don’t need anyone to visit me either. Even if


    I’m injured, no one else will know about it.”


    “Aren’t they your family?” Mo Yan was so aghast that her eyes widened. Huo Zhen’s expression was


    solemn and did not carry the slightest hint that he was joking.


    “Isn’t Mo Lian also your rtive? When she does things, does she have any regard for your


    rtionship?” Huo Zhen did not directly answer Mo Yan. He stood and extended his hand to shake


    hers. “It’s funny to say that family ties can’t bepared to thin banknotes. For money, even close


    rtives can turn against each other.”


    Mo Yan’s eyes dimmed. She could understand Huo Zhen. It was just like how she used to treat Mo


    Dong and Mo Lian as family, giving her all for their sake. She naively thought that sincerity would beget


    sincerity. She did not expect that, not only would they not feel touched at all, they even schemed


    against her. Time and time again, they put her in danger or made use of her.


    “So now, in the entire Huo family, only that girl, Huo Yu, will be treated well by me.” Huo Zhen did not


    want Mo Yan to get involved in the feud enveloping the Huo family. He only let her know who was


    friend and who was foe.


    “Oh.”


    Mo Yan responded lightly. She thought of the arrogant and domineering Huo Yu and was a little


    worried. “I quite like that girl, Huo Yu. She’s willful and entric, and has a straightforward personality.


    However, she doesn’t seem to like me very much. Should I do something?”


    “So, I can understand that you really want to gain the approval of my family?” Huo Zhen smiled lightly


    and raised his hand to gently scratch Mo Yan’s nose.

    Mo Yan was rmed. Although she did mean it, the wordsing out of Huo Zhen’s mouth were a


    little strange and ufortable.


    “That’s not what I meant!”


    She stood up in a panic and was pulled back by Huo Zhen. He suggestively brought his lips close to


    Mo Yan’s ear and moved his throat slightly. “You don’t have to do anything. This is good enough.”


    “But…”


    Mo Yan was still a little hesitant. Huo Zhen cleared his throat and added.


    “That girl, Huo Yu, has always distinguished clearly between love and hate. Her earlier attitude showed


    that she has epted you. If not, she would have torn you apart on the spot.”


    Although he wanted tofort Mo Yan, Huo Zhen knew his sister very well. Based on her attitude just


    now, she had already epted Mo Yan, but she did not know how to coexist peacefully.
