Chapter 855 - Internal Injury from Holding Back
Chapter 855: Internal Injury from Holding Back
Ling Sheng had guessed correctly indeed. When it was time to get in the car…
Xiao Hui opened their car door first and pushed Huo Feifei directly. She shot her a look. “Feifei, get in quickly. Be well-behaved when you get there. Don’t cause trouble for your Sixth Uncle.”
Edward and King William were very familiar with each other too, but Feifei had said that Edward wanted to use this opportunity to build a good relationship with King William, so he had asked her to help him.
She knew about this matter but even her husband did not, so she had told Huihui to tell others that Edward and King William were very close friends.
When Huo Ci and King William met, the latter had to even call him Sixth Brother. Naturally, they did not have an ordinary relationship.
Huo Ci kicked the car door with a fake smile. “Why? Does Fourth Sister-in-law want me to take them there? You even want me to be their chauffeur?”
“Sixth Brother, what are you talking about?” Xiao Hui offered an obsequious smile hurriedly and turned around to shout. “Uncle Liu, where’s our chauffeur?”
“Fourth Madam, our Old Master is kind. He let them go home for the Lunar New Year,” Uncle Liu followed her and replied.
“Sixth Brother, Edward is a guest. It’s not appropriate for us to let the guest drive either, right? You’ll have to suffer a little. Fourth Brother will treat you to a big meal someday,” Huo Li tugged at Huo Ci, as he lowered his voice .
Huo Ci’s lips curled up into a sneer as he asked, “Why? Does Prince Edward not have a driving license?”
“Sixth Uncle, Edward doesn’t need to drive the car himself when he goes out,” Huo Feifei smiled obsequiously. “Besides, the traffic rules in our country are different from those overseas. He doesn’t know.”
Huo Ci asked, “You mean he’s noble? Am I only worthy of being his chauffeur?”
Huo Feifei sucked in a deep breath. “Sixth Uncle is an elder. No matter how bold I am, I wouldn’t dare think that way.”
“I understand.” Huo Ci turned around and ordered, “Uncle Liu, Prince Edward doesn’t know how to drive. You should drive them to the airport!”
Then, with a distant look, he opened the car door straight away and threw Xiaoqi in before getting in the driver’s seat himself.
Fourth Brother and his wife were extremely angry, but they could not flare up. They looked at each other and gritted their teeth as they stomped their feet. What did he mean? Was Sixth Brother not giving them any face when they had begged him humbly?
Huo Feifei and Edward were also dumbfounded. Since they had already said that, a normal person would not refuse them even if it was to deal with it perfunctorily! He was too much!
Ling Sheng smiled at the group of people with varying expressions, who looked like they had internal injuries from holding themselves back. She said goodbye politely and got in the car elegantly. When she saw her father’s cold handsome face, she held back her laughter.
Ha ha ha ha! She did not know why, but she felt really good, especially when she saw her father’s arrogant look; it was as though he was saying that ‘even if you cannot stand me, you are unable to do anything to me’. He was really impressive.
Xiaoqi sat in the front passenger seat and fiddled with it for a long time, but he still could not fasten his seatbelt. He looked at the person beside him for help. “Grandpa.”
Huo Ci gave him a disdainful look before helping him fasten his seatbelt. Then, he started the car and zoomed off arrogantly, not caring if the people behind him had followed him.
“Father, does that Edward really know the King and Queen?” Ling Sheng asked with interest.
Why did she feel like Huo Feifei wanted to get to know the King and Queen through her father? Since they were so familiar with one another, the two of them could just go to the airport on their own? They did not even need to ask for help or be at the whim of her father.
“What does that have to do with me?” Huo Ci took a look at the rearview mirror. The car behind him had already hurried over, and his lips curled up coldly.
One who was unaccountably solicitous was hiding evil intentions. His Fourth Sister-in-law and Fourth Brother were people who did not get up early without any benefit. If they did not have something to ask of him, they would not be so easy to talk to.
That Prince Edward, who had popped out of nowhere, still dared to act arrogantly in front of him.
Ling Sheng also saw the car chasing after them. Then, she heard her father tell her to fasten her seatbelt and sit properly.
As soon as she sat properly, the car flew forward at a high speed. After two mere intersections, when she turned her head back, she could not see the car following them.
Huo Feifei’s face flushed with anger. “Uncle Liu, what’s wrong with you?! Follow them!”
Uncle Liu was already in his sixties this year, and the Old Master did not even need him to be his chauffeur anymore. Upon hearing her words, he blushed in shame. “Ms. Feifei, as you know, Sixth Master is a professional racer. How can I compare to him?!”
He usually drove for the Old Master. The Old Master’s heart could not take any stimulation. He could only drive like this. How could he catch up to the Sixth Master? It was too difficult for him.
Huo Feifei was so angry that she punched the car seat and gritted her teeth. Sixth Uncle had done it on purpose. How could he be like that as a person? He did not keep his word at all. “Edward, let us go alone. You know King William too, right? He’ll definitely meet us!”
However, Edward, who was beside her, suddenly clutched his stomach. His complexion was ugly, and he was covered in cold sweat. He was in great pain. “My stomach hurts, Feifei.”
Upon seeing his sudden ailment, Huo Feifei shouted anxiously toward the front of the car, “Uncle Liu, go to the hospital! We’re not going to the airport!”
A sly and sinister glint flashed across Edward’s eyes. But when he looked at Huo Feifei, his eyes were full of guilt as he endured the pain and said, “I’m sorry, my dear. I’ve disappointed you.”
Huo Feifei was anxious and her heart ached. Upon seeing that her lover was in such pain yet he was still thinking about her, she felt even more touched. She hugged him and said, “Don’t speak. Don’t speak anymore. Bear with it. We’ll be reaching the hospital soon.”
At the very least, she had a man who loved her and placed her first. He was also a gentlemanly, powerful, influential, and rich prince.
No matter how arrogant Sixth Uncle was, what did he have? That illegitimate daughter of his did not even know which wild man her child belonged to.
No matter what, she was thousands of times better than that little b*stard Ling Sheng. Sixth Uncle had not allowed her to go because he was afraid that she would be too outstanding and steal his b*stard’s limelight.
When she thought of that, her lips curled up smugly, and her heart felt much better. They were all jealous of her!
The Huo Family had to wait for the Old Master to get up for breakfast. The Old Master would wake up at seven o’clock sharp every day, take a half hour walk, and eat at seven-thirty.
The family had just sat down when Huo Feifei and Edward returned.
Huo Xuanzhou usually gave Huo Feifei the cold shoulder. She was always the one following behind him and calling him Brother Zhou. He just felt annoyed, but he did not hate her.
However, ever since she had messed with Ling Sheng, he had found her increasingly unpleasant to his eye. Upon seeing her return, he smiled and drawled, “Didn’t the two of you go to the airport to fetch King William and his wife? Why are you back so early?”
Huo Feifei was a stupid person who could not hide her emotions well. She looked like she was fine, but her emotions had already been revealed and she was not in a good mood.
Clear hatred flashed across Huo Feifei’s eyes before she returned to normal. She looked at the people at the table and explained, “Edward’s stomach didn’t feel well. We went to the hospital.”
