Chapter 412: I’ll Wait for You to Come Back

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

There was only silence in response to Huo Sicheng’s question.

The night in the clouds was very quiet, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Huo Sicheng’s long hands caressed the thin blanket, as if he were caressing Gu Qingcheng.

As time passed, golden sunlight poured into the bedroom through the window. He turned to look out of the window, his anticipation of Gu Qingcheng’s return fading away.

The next moment, he came to the window of the living room. The sunlight cast a layer of light on him, making the already cold and handsome man even more radiant, like the moon.

He could see the door. As soon as Gu Qingcheng entered, he would see her immediately.

However…

“Daddy, Mommy isn’t back yet?” Huo Xuan woke up at ten in the morning and rubbed his sleepy eyes as he walked to the living room. He looked around and looked at his father. “You still haven’t been able to contact Mom?”

Huo Sicheng’s well-defined handsome face was pale from exhaustion.

Compared to his fatigue, his heart felt like it was being stabbed by a knife, so painful that he even found it difficult to breathe.

Huo Xuan was young but sensible. He could tell that his father was very sad, and the blame he had for his father turned into comfort.

“Daddy, wait a little longer. Mommy will definitely come back. No matter how Mommy quarrels with Daddy, she actually loves Daddy very much.” He tugged at his father’s sleeve with his small hand. “If there’s really no other way, I’ll accompany Father to Royal Dance Academy. Mother will definitely go to school and will definitely be able to see her.”

Huo Sicheng’s heart skipped a beat when he heard Huo Xuan’s words.

Gu Qingcheng loved him very much.

She did like him, but her feelings were not loyal and always hovered between him and Qi Shaoze.

After a while, he turned to Huo Xuan and said, “The Peach Lotus Cup is over. Your mother won’t be going to Imperial Arts School.”

“Ah?” Huo Xuan was surprised. “How could that be? Mom is the principal of Royal Dance. She definitely has to deal with school matters.”

“The matters of the Imperial Art School are handled by the vice-principal, Li

Jing.” Huo Sicheng told Huo Xuan, “Your mother only goes to school once in a while. A few days ago, she went to school for the Peach Lotus Cup. After the Peach Lotus Cup, she won’t go to school anymore.”

Huo Xuan knew that his father knew his mother better than he did. He thought about it and said, “Let’s wait then. Baby and Daddy will wait here for Mommy to come back. Mommy will definitely be back in Yunduan within three days.”

Huo Sicheng had a complicated look in his eyes.

Wait.

He knew that no matter how much conflict Gu Qingcheng had with him, and no matter how she didn’t return to Wanmei Villa, she would eventually return to Yunduan City.

He knew that Yunduan City was Gu Qingcheng’s home, a home that belonged to her alone. It was a place where she could rest when she was tired.

“I’ll wait for your mother here. I’ll get Ah Qing to send her to school,” he told Huo Xuan.

“No.” Huo Xuan shook his head firmly. “I’m not going to school. I’m not going to school until I see my mother.”

“Huo Xuan, you’re not good,” said Huo Sicheng in a deep voice.

“I’m not going to school.” Huo Xuan immediately took a few steps back to put some distance between him and his father. He pleaded, “Daddy, let me stay. As long as I see Mommy, I will go to school immediately. I will never be a third wheel for Daddy and Mommy.”

Huo Sicheng looked at Huo Xuan, who was missing Gu Qingcheng, and finally gave in.

“Alright.” “Wait for me here,” he promised Huo Xuan. “I’ll make breakfast for you.”

“Okay,” Huo Xuan replied.

Li Jing would bring fresh vegetables to Yun Duan regularly so that Gu Qingcheng could have fresh food whenever she came back. So, Huo Sicheng made Huo Xuan breakfast with fresh ingredients.

Huo Sicheng didn’t have the slightest appetite for Huo Xuan’s breakfast. He just sat by the window and looked in the direction of the door.

In the blink of an eye, night fell. After a long day of waiting, Huo Xuan fell asleep on the sofa in the living room.

Huo Sicheng carried Huo Xuan to the guest room, then returned to the living room to wait for Gu Qingcheng.

“Qingcheng, come back…” He muttered hoarsely.

“Achoo…” Gu Qingcheng, who was far away in Lu Chi’s safe house, sneezed.

“I miss you once, I curse you twice, and I’m going to get sick three times.” Lu Chi looked at Gu Qingcheng and said, “Your husband Huo Sicheng misses you.”

Gu Qingcheng rolled her eyes at Lu Chi.

“Shut your jinx.”

Huo Sicheng didn’t have time to think about her. He only cared about his love for Miss Li.

Lu Chi took off his suit jacket. The black shirt on his body wrapped around his eight-pack abs, and his slender trousers wrapped around his strong long legs.

He exuded a different kind of muscular and yuppie aura, and his smile made him look especially evil.

“Your husband killed your entire family? Why do you hate him so much now?”

He teased her.

“You f*cking…” Gu Qingcheng picked up the teacup in front of her and threw it at Lu Chi. “You have a foul mouth, don’t you?” she said angrily.

She didn’t hate Huo Sicheng, but she was in pain.

Because in Huo Sicheng’s heart, she was not as good as Miss Li. How could she not be sad?

Lu Chi turned his head to the side, perfectly avoiding the teacup hitting his head.

“Alright, I won’t tease you anymore.” He stood up. “I’ll go cook for you.”

“Cooking?” Frowning, Gu Qingcheng said, “I live in the safe house. You’re not going to stay here, are you?”

“What’s wrong?” “I can’t stay here?” Lu Chi looked at Gu Qingcheng calmly. “I can’t.” Gu Qingcheng said bluntly, “I want to stay here alone for a while.”

Lu Chi stared at Gu Qingcheng for a while before sighing softly. He turned around and walked to the door with a complicated look in his eyes. “I’ll be leaving now. There’s everything in the fridge. You can make whatever you want to eat.”

Gu Qingcheng saw that Lu Chi was about to leave. She called out to him, “Lu

Chi, wait a minute.”

Lu Chi stopped in his tracks. When he turned to look at Gu Qingcheng, he asked her calmly, “What’s wrong?”

“You…” Gu Qingcheng pursed her lips. “Why don’t you go check it out…”

“No problem. I’ll send someone to investigate immediately,” Lu Chi said without hesitation.

‘ Gu Qingcheng was taken aback. “I haven’t said what to investigate yet.”

Lu Chi chuckled. His laughter made the scar on his face twitch, adding a hint of malevolence to it. His eyes were as bright as the stars as he stared at Gu Qingcheng, soothing the fear on his face.

“Investigate Huo Sicheng.” He said with certainty, “Do you think I can’t see through your little thoughts? You may be angry at Huo Sicheng, but your heart is filled with him.’

Gu Qingcheng did want Lu Chi to investigate Huo Sicheng. She wanted to know if he had returned to Jiang City and if he was happy with Miss Li overseas.

In the end, her expression turned ugly when Lu Chi exposed her thoughts.

“Get lost.” Her face was cold. “There’s no need to investigate. I’m going to stay here for half a month. Huo Sicheng can go to hell.”

Lu Chi laughed again. “What a woman who doesn’t mean what she says.”

Gu Qingcheng watched Lu Chi leave. She lay on the sofa unhappily, clearing her mind of Huo Sicheng. She closed her eyes and wanted to sleep.

At this moment, Lu Chi drove away. Halfway through, he took out his phone and dialed a number. “Go check on Huo Sicheng. See where he is..”
