BXBX NOVEL Chapter 74 - Hu Han
Chapter 74: Hu Han
The courtyard house in the West Gate Alley was different from what Shen Xiaoxiao had imagined. She had thought that the courtyard house as the ‘base’ was heavily guarded, with guards and bodyguards everywhere.
But when she really arrived here, she saw that it was not the case.
“Where are your men?”
Shen Xiaoxiao asked Yan Kuan curiously. Now that she had explained everything to Yan Kuan, she no longer had any worries. She said whatever came to her mind.
Yan Kuan glanced at her and took the box of useless clothes that she insisted on taking away. He said, “This place is close to your school. They have a villa in the suburbs.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was stunned when she heard this answer. Did Yan Kuan mean that he bought this place on purpose for her?
“You…”
“Little thing, your man still has a lot of things to be moved by you. Is that all? Let’s go. Let’s go in.”
“Wait a moment.”
“What’s wrong?”
“The school is on holiday. Even if we have to go to school, we have to wait until a month later. There’s no need for us to live here now.”
This was a rare kind gesture from Shen Xiaoxiao. What she said was also the truth. However, Yan Kuan was stunned and said, “Holiday? Winter holiday? It’s been too long since I’ve returned to China. I’ve forgotten about this. The New Year is an important day for Chinese people to reunite with their families. It’s really my oversight.”
For some reason, when Shen Xiaoxiao heard him speak like this, she felt that his voice was particularly lonely, as if he was recalling something. The sadness that radiated from his entire body was even colder than the winter snow.
She reached out to hold his palm, attempting to pass on her warmth to him. Yan Kuan came back to his senses, glanced at her, and lovingly touched the top of her furry head.
“Then let’s go to the villa area. When school starts, we’ll move here. This little thing is becoming more and more feminine. Let’s go…”
Shen Xiaoxiao knew that she couldn’t be kind to this guy. What did he mean by feminine? She was a woman to begin with, alright? Could it be that he didn’t know if she was a woman or not?
…
“Look, look, you guys have lost. Pay up, pay up. I knew that Boss wouldn’t be willing to lay a hand on this Little Oriental Loli.”
Lei Lie grinned as he extended his hand towards the other three brothers. He knew Boss would bring her back unscathed. These people didn’t believe him, but now, one win, three wins, hahaha… The money for tonight’s drinks had been secured.
Yun Qi pouted unhappily as he took out his money and said angrily to the others, “Boss is too spineless. This little girl ran away from him and now he’s eagerly bringing her back. Why isn’t he tidying up?”
“Alright, Yun Qi, you really don’t know what you’re talking about. What are you talking about? This is Boss’ first love. Do you know what first love is? You’ve never been in a relationship before, so what do you know?”
Huo Gui looked at Yun Qi with disdain. However, he had always been a good gambler. He had to admit defeat as he spoke while taking out his money.
“Huo Gui is right. This is Boss’ first love. Of course he values it. Besides, there’s nothing bad about Boss being with this Little Oriental Loli. This loli has been locked up for more than ten years. She’s simple and innocent. Can’t you see that Boss is raising her like a daughter?
“Anyway, I think Boss is doing quite well. It’s better than being at peace with that big celebrity, don’t you think so?”
As Feng Hao said this, he unhappily took out the money from his wallet and threw it to Lei Lie. He had always been stingy, but since he had lost the bet, there was nothing to be reluctant about.
Moreover, what he said was the truth. In any case, he looked down on that actress. Compared to her, this little loli was still better.
“Alright, you guys, Boss definitely doesn’t look up to An Ning. She’s always pretending. If she wasn’t from the Ouyang family, Boss wouldn’t even bother with her.”
“Let’s not talk about them here anymore. Let’s go and have two rounds. It’ll give you a chance to take revenge.”
“Let’s go, who’s afraid of who? It’s agreed that the loser will treat us tonight…”
…
The only six-star hotel in the capital’s top office building was on direct Samen Street.
Tonight, Shen Xiaoxiao wore a pink lace long-sleeved dress, silver high heels, and a white cashmere coat. She still had a simple pin to tidy up her short hair neatly and beautifully.
As soon as they entered the hotel, the hotel manager eagerly walked over. They directly entered the top floor of the VIP elevator.
“This hotel isn’t yours, is it?” Shen Xiaoxiao asked the question in her heart without the slightest hesitation.
Yan Kuan smiled, patted her arm, and said, “Not yet, but I’m considering whether to let them become mine.”
“What do you mean?”
“Literally?”
Shen Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and ignored this annoying man, not saying anything.
Yan Kuan looked at the little guy’s increasingly lively appearance and smiled.
“The one who invited us tonight is the CEO of this hotel. It has only been open for a month, so tonight can be considered an official introduction to the outside world. Later, the Liu family and the Pei family will all come here.”
“Are you very familiar with the CEO of this hotel?”
Shen Xiaoxiao was a little puzzled because ‘The Pavilion’ was quite famous in her previous life. It was not that it was very famous. Of course, as the only six-star hotel, it was indeed famous. However, what really made it famous was the wedding ceremony of the CEO of this hotel four years later.
At that time, Hu Han, the CEO of this hotel, was revealed by the bride to be a member of the Ouyang family at the wedding. In less than a month, the owner of the hotel was changed. Of course, it naturally fell into the hands of the Ouyang family in the end.
It caused quite a stir at that time. However, according to Shen Xiaoxiao’s understanding of Yan Kuan now, if she knew that the CEO of The Pavilion was a member of the Ouyang family, he should not have had any relationship with him.
There was also the CEO of The Pavilion. Even a rookie like her knew clearly how big this incident was back then and hadn’t forgotten it until now.
The CEO of The Pavilion was called Hu Han. He was only in his thirties this year, but he was quite capable.
Logically speaking, if Hu Han was a member of the Ouyang family, or if Hu Han had a close relationship with the Ouyang family, he would have long used the Ouyang family’s influence to take his business to the next level.
However, no one had heard that Hu Han was actually from the Ouyang family, regardless of whether it was from the opening of The Pavilion or until the incident.
Hu Han’s personal information clearly stated that both his parents had died. As one of the famous golden bachelors in the capital, Shen Xiaoxiao still remembered this bit of information clearly.
However, later on, he was exposed by the woman he loved, which made people’s jaws drop. Back then, as the heir of the Shen family, she had been invited to participate in the wedding ceremony. At that time, the expression on Hu Han’s face was very interesting.
It was unbelievable to the point that he was full of hatred. The killing intent on his face could not be blocked.
However, his wife took the initiative to announce to everyone present that Hu Han was the illegitimate child that the Ouyang family had left behind. She even made the decision to announce that the Ouyang family would move into The Pavilion.
It could be seen how much of a blow this matter had dealt to Hu Han.
After the hotel was taken over by the Ouyang family, Hu Han went to Chongyang and traveled overseas. There was no news from him ever since.
Therefore, now that she heard that he was personally invited by the CEO of the hotel, Shen Xiaoxiao could not help but want to know what the relationship between Yan Kuan and Hu Han was.
