“Qiao Xi?”
By her side, Huo Xingzhou called out.
“Ah? Are we going home?” Qiao Xi came back to her senses, her gaze crashing into his deep eyes.
“Going home.”
Huo Xingzhou didn’t ask further, opening the car door for her to get in.
Old Chen drove the car, heading onward.
Qiao Xi sat on the leather seat, and finally fully awakened, she said, “Today, Lu Yingxue also began to study with Master Huang. There might be changes to the successor of the Zhong Family. According to what Old Master Zhong implies, he wants Zhong Yi and Lu Yingxue to have a child. If Lu Yingxue does not get pregnant, Zhong Yi might not necessarily be the heir.”
Qiao Xi leaned on the soft cushion, her back sore and aching, and said, “What a strange rule, shouldn’t the competition for the heir be about ability?”
Huo Xingzhou saw her in this state and extended his hand to gently knead the side of her lower back, saying, “The Zhong Family is strong enough; the heir only needs to have brains. Both Zhong Lingxiao and Zhong Yi are capable. Since Zhong Lingxiao’s woman is pregnant, the old man has to reconsider… and moreover…”
“Moreover what?”
Qiao Xi’s clear apricot eyes looked at him.
Huo Xingzhou swallowed that answer, saying, “Old Master Zhong needs Zhong Yi to show loyalty. Lu Yingxue is the fiancée arranged for him, to test if Zhong Yi is obedient enough and can consider the family’s interests. My cooperation with Zhong Yi has angered the old man.”
He left out the most important reason.
