The Imperious President and His Pampered Young Wife

4. Joy of Having a Home

Translator: 灵芝11

“Yes, President Huo!”

He opened the bag and took out a stack of data, handing it to Huo Lang who was sitting on the sofa.

There were new as well as old papers in that data, and the old papers were faintly yellowing.

Huo Lang casually fiddled with his long fingers while his eyes had never fallen on it, only speaking blandly, “Take them away first and wait for me in the hall!”

“Yes!”

The driver responded respectfully with a poker face and then turned around to say to the two little girls, “Please follow me. Don’t disturb the President.”

The two little girls felt a little nervous, glancing at Huo Lang timidly and turning around to follow the driver out.

Unexpectedly, the person who adopted them was so good-looking and young!

When the door was closed, Huo Lang glanced out as if he was telepathic. At that moment, a pair of starry eyes caught his eye.

How to describe those eyes? They were clear and bright as if the God picked two brightest stars and embedded them into her eyes to replace the eyeballs of mortals.

Huo Lang was shocked and a storm arose in his mind!

Those eyes…

Huo Lang closed his eyes, in which the indifference was restored when he opened again. With his long finger flipping through the data, he gently twisted with his fingertips, and a piece of A4 paper in the middle was twisted into a corner.

There was a picture pasted on the top of the paper. The woman in the picture had black hair and bright and charming smile just like a lotus flower that had just come into bloom, pure and peaceful.

The man gently smoothed that piece of paper with his long fingers, put the data aside, stood up and went over to the window to part a curtain. He cast his brooding gaze out, which were merged with the darkness outside.

In the hall on the first floor, two little girls were sitting on the sofa, who were so overcautious that their bodies were completely stiff.

Because they were afraid of being disdained by those servants who were pointing at them in the distance and forced into the car again and sent back to the original place.

The driver stood expressionlessly beside them.

The whole hall was brimming with oppressive pressure, which made people short of breath.

Patter…

The sound of leather shoes stepping on the stairs broke the silence in the hall. Everyone looked at the direction the sound came from.

The Deity-like man had already changed his bathrobe into a well-cut suit, carrying himself with great nobility and temperament. Though his narrow eyes were glowing with cold light, he was still intoxicating.

The driver standing beside the little girls was a little dazed as his stolid face changed slightly, but soon he recovered his equilibrium again.

The patter of footsteps approached slowly and stopped in front of the two little girls.

Huo Lang looked down at the two little girls, who could not help trying to press close together, swallowing his oppression with his eyes looking back and forth slowly.

There were two totally different emotions, veering between

tenderness and coldness in his eyes.

What did this mean?

A moment later, the magnetic voice said again to the two little girls, “From now on, I am your guardian. Call me Uncle!”

The two little girls felt relieved and their face relaxed into a happy smile, “Uncle!”

A sense of happiness couldn’t be concealed welled up in their heart. All the previous nervousness disappeared instantly for they were allowed to stay!

They had home and families. The good-looking man in front of them was their uncle!

They would never be bullied again!

Huo Lang  bent over and took the dirty little hand of one of the little girls, and his voice was so gentle that it didn’t seem to came from his mouth. “Your name is Huo Xue from now on! And you are the noblest and purest princess in this mansion. Do you like it?”

The little girl called Huo Xue was extremely happy with her eyes glowing with an incomparably bright radiance.

Huo Lang picked up Huo Xue in spite of her dirty and messy appearance, while he lowered his head with hatred in his eyes. His tender eyes seemed to have been devoured by the demon in an instant, which were gloomy and evil.

His tone was filled with undisguised ridicule, “Your name will be Huo Xiu from now on!”

No superfluous word.

Everyone could tell the discrimination between the two little girls.

The little girl named Huo Xiu didn’t seem to be loved, instead, she was brought back to be tortured and destroyed.

The sudden change in attitude made Huo Xiu relapse into panic.

She was so sensitive that she could understand Uncle’s disgust and displeasure.

Was she not good enough? Or because she stole a glance at the luxury in the room just now?

But Huo Xiu still smiled at once, no matter how this Uncle disliked her, after all he gave her a home, didn’t he?

“Thank you, Uncle!” Her timid voice seemed to have lost all confidence, but she still tried to keep smiling.

The teacher in the kindergarten once told them that everyone liked the kids who loved to laugh and disliked the kids who loved to cry.

As long as she tried to smile, Uncle would like her someday as he liked Huo Xue!

Although his eyes were cold and indifferent, she still extracted a feeling of joy of having a home!
