Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 724 - Chapter 724 Chapter 723 Thousands of People_1

Chapter 724: Chapter 723 Thousands of People_1 Chapter 724: Chapter 723 Thousands of People_1 Huo Kewei drew a sharp breath, “Hundreds…thousands of men?”

After speaking, he looked He Shasha up and down with a scrutinizing gaze, clicking his tongue as he said with evident astonishment, “Never would have guessed it, you’ve seen quite a bit for someone your age.”

“Screw your ‘seen quite a bit’.” He Shasha quickly turned hostile and kicked at him.

Although Huo Kewei was referred to as a spoiled rich kid, having grown up in a large compound and being repeatedly thrown into the military for training by Huo Dongfeng, he did have quick reflexes and agility. Seeing He Shasha’s move, he quickly retreated. Just as he planned to counterattack, he remembered that she was a woman, and he never liked to be as ruthless as his uncle.

So, he continued to retreat until he was pushed to the side of the road, where he was held steady with a firm hand on his back, keeping him in place.

He Shasha stopped, staring incredulously at the scene before her.

“Huh, no wonder people say compared to Imperial City, any other place in the country is just rural.”

Indeed, she was a country bumpkin. People from the Imperial City always played bigger games, of questionable nature.

Once she thought of that, He Shasha wilted instantly and turned to run.

Nan Fei was still waiting for her to bring back something to eat!

Zuo Xinyao was standing there supporting Huo Kewei’s waist with one hand, his tall and straight posture unmoved. Huo Ke Wei stood firmly with their bodies pressed close. Zuo Xinyao didn’t mind, his devilishly handsome face showed no expression.

“Did she misunderstand something?” Huo Kewei stood up straight again, watching the retreating figure. He felt something was off.

“I don’t know!” Zuo Xinyao didn’t care about such trivial matters, he turned his head to glare at Huo Kewei unhappily. “Didn’t your uncle tell you not to run around? How come you still sneaked out?”

“Shush! I’m trailing Wei Qin. My brother told me that Wei Qin’s illegitimate son lives here.” He had been cooped up at home all day, feeling stifled.

Zuo Xinyao had long known that Huo Kewei was incapable of staying put and didn’t bother to deal with it. Although Huo Kewei was the youngest among them, he was definitely not the weakest. His cunning mind matched his devilishly bad boy face.

Anyone who thought Huo Kewei was easy to bully would be sorely mistaken.

“You’re really here tracking Wei Qin?” Zuo Xinyao was a little skeptical.

Commander Huo had died, and Huo Kewei had been secretly investigating against Huo Beijiang’s orders. He hid it well, but they had lived together since childhood, so it was hard to deceive Zuo Xinyao’s keen eyes.

Huo Kewei was well aware of this, but he was prepared.

“My aunt also lives here.”

“Jiang Nanfei?” Zuo Xinyao had heard about what Tang Qian had done without even returning to the compound.

“Yeah!”

“So why are you standing outside? Go in!”

“Sure!”

A devilish smile appeared on the corner of Huo Kewei’s mouth. He took Zuo Xinyao with him and walked towards the building. He rang the doorbell of the third unit and after a while, to his surprise, the door was opened by Wei Qin.

The two of them stood at the doorway, instantly frozen in shock.

“Are you looking for Jiang Nanfei?” Wei Qin asked with his usual calm and polite manner.

“Uh…yes.”

“Come in, please! But she’s been locking herself in her study so I’m not sure if you’ll be able to see her. In fact, I’ve been here for three days and I haven’t seen her once.”

Wei Qin moved aside to make room for them and led the two of them into the living room familiarly.

Jiang Yang was playing with a complex puzzle on the living room carpet. The scattered pieces were all over the place, almost like a small mountain. Even when unfamiliar people came in, he didn’t look up, completely immersed in his task.
