Taming The Hidden Bigshot By Kissing Him-Chapter 138 - : Qiao Xi Gets Drunk, Charming and Coquettish
Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Qiao Xi Gets Drunk, Charming and Coquettish
Qiao Xi slept soundly on the tatami, her long hair draping onto her skin, barely covering the important parts.
It was tantalizingly indistinct.
Huo Xingzhou’s eyes were deep as they swept over her.
She had drunk alcohol, and her skin was flushed with a delicate pink. For some reason, he thought of the phrase “spring sleep under begonia trees, voluptuous and charming.”
He caught sight of the most depraved and persistent desire deep within his heart, an uncontrollable craving.
He lowered his eyelashes and took out a sketchpad he hadn’t used in years from the cabinet, his slender fingers holding a pen. Smooth lines fell onto the paper…
His body was burning hot, unbearable.
He scrutinized every inch of her skin with his sharp gaze, every different shade, every detail deeply imprinted in his mind.
Those things he hadn’t done in reality were repeated over and over again under his lingering and invasive gaze.
The night deepened.
The “shasha” sound of the pencil tip rubbing against the sketch paper stopped.
Huo Xingzhou covered Qiao Xi with a blanket, and slowly walked out of the studio to answer his vibrating phone.
“Hello.”
“President Huo, it’s me, Chen Xun.” Chen Xun had been searching day and night and finally convinced “Fei Luan” to hack into the network and delete those photos and videos.
Perhaps President Huo went through the trouble of finding a female hacker because of his possessive desire for the Young Madam.
“Fei Luan has deleted all backup videos. But she discovered that the files had traces of being copied and printed; they have already been leaked.”
Huo Xingzhou’s expression darkened, “Traces of copying?”
Chen Xun hurriedly declared his loyalty, “I’ve already followed the clues and am on the trail. I believe we will find it soon.”
“Mmh.”
Huo Xingzhou responded indifferently.
He had just hung up the phone when he received a new message alert with a “dingdong” on his phone. He switched to the green app, where Xu Xingluo had sent him a photo.
He opened it.
In the chat box appeared a photo of someone in revealing sleepwear, translucent and quite seductive. Only, the chest was not full enough to exude a sexy charm.
Xu Xingluo: Brother Xingzhou, do you think this nightgown looks good on me?
Huo Xingzhou regarded it coldly.
Dingdong!
Dingdong!
Xu Xingluo then sent several more photos of her long legs and chest, barely squeezed to create cleavage, full of a worldly air.

Huo Xingzhou coldly saved the pictures and warned,
“The photos and videos recorded by the pinhole camera have been erased by someone I found. Don’t use this method again, or don’t blame me for pursuing it to the end. Also, hand over the photos you’ve copied and printed, or else your pictures will be hung in Haicheng’s largest mall.”
Block, delete friend.
…
In the Xu Family, inside the Princess room.
Upon reading Huo Xingzhou’s words, Xu Xingluo was anxious to explain but saw a red exclamation mark instead.
The other party is no longer your friend.
Brother Xingzhou had deleted her!
Xu Xingluo stomped her feet in anger. She began to check the backups of videos and photos on her phone, only to find they had vanished into thin air.
She nervously picked at her nails. She had sent the printed photos to the old lady in the countryside; where was she to find them now.
Jealousy crazed her heart. Why did Brother Xingzhou like a country girl!
She bit her hand, anxious and angry, when suddenly the villa’s hall erupted in fierce quarreling and the sound of things being smashed startled Xu Xingluo.
Clutching her phone, Xu Xingluo pushed open the door of her room and crouched at the corner of the second floor to eavesdrop.
In the living room, the atmosphere was as tense as a drawn bow.
Liu Qiushuang wielded her cane, lashing out at Liu Huimin in agony, “Fool! You really are a fool! Your second brother was just starting to get better, and you forced Qiao Xi to resign!”
Liu Huimin defensively argued, “I didn’t expect her to be so extreme! She actually wanted to resign just like that!”
She was panicked at the time.
But her pride prevented her from stooping to appease a young girl.
“Even a clay figurine has a temper. You hurt her grandma, causing her to be hospitalized. How could she not fight back!”
Liu Huimin said in a low voice, “She has no evidence, I was just trying to persuade her to divorce Huo Xingzhou. I will compensate her. Xingluo even attempted suicide!”
Compared to Qiao Xi’s fate, she cared more about her own daughter.
Liu Qiushuang saw that she was being obstinate and, unable to contain her anger, hit her hard.
“Why should they divorce! Weren’t you and your husband the ones who forcefully sent Xingluo abroad? Now you regret it?” Liu Qiushuang gasped for breath.
“Mom, don’t be angry, Huimin is just worried for her daughter,” Xu Guangyao tried to soothe from the side.
He was secretly pleased to hear about Qiao Xi’s resignation, as the news of Liu Zongyun’s improvement had him restless.
Liu Zongquan, who had been sitting on the side the whole time, suddenly said, “Tomorrow, all of you go to the hospital and apologize to Qiao Xi. Please ask her to stay at Haicheng City Hospital.”
“Huimin, do you understand? You must be humble and sincere.”
Liu Huimin nodded reluctantly, “I understand.”
She acknowledged her mistake, but ever since Xingluo returned to the country, heartbroken, and eventually chose to take her own life, Liu Huimin’s heart ached, and she constantly thought about breaking up Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou.
She loved her daughter after all.
Liu Qiushuang snorted coldly, “Children will have their own luck. As a mother, how could you aid and abet such cruelty! From today onwards, control Xingluo’s behavior and prevent her from meddling with that young couple.”
“Mom…” Liu Huimin pleaded, “Xingluo is sick. She can’t control her behavior.”
“Then find the best psychiatrist in the country.”
Liu Qiushuang, frustrated at her lack of progress, said, “Tomorrow, you must try your hardest to make Qiao Xi stay.”
“Yes.”
Xu Xingluo was squatting in a corner on the second floor, listening intently to the conversation in the living room.
So the old lady from Moon Village had come to Haicheng and was hospitalized.
She needed to find a chance to retrieve the printed photos.
Otherwise, Huo Xingzhou really could do such a thing.
Xu Xingluo calculated in her mind when a shadow fell upon her, blocking most of the light.
Startled, she looked up to see it was Xu Yunye, dressed in a heavy motorcycle outfit.
“Big brother, you scared me to death!” she complained, patting her chest.
Xu Yunye, with delicate and handsome features, looked androgynous. Holding a cool helmet in one hand, he looked down from above and said, “Did you do something guilty?”
“That’s none of your business,” Xu Xingluo pouted. Other twins might get along well, but the Xu family’s twins had been at odds since childhood.
Xu Yunye hummed lightly and took her phone from her, the screen displayed explicit photos.
“Sending private photos to a married man in the middle of the night. Xu Xingluo, you really have morals,” he mocked. “If Huo Xingzhou was that stupid, he wouldn’t have made it with Tianyuan Group.”
“Give it back to me!”
Xu Xingluo snatched her phone back. “It’s none of your business.”
Xu Yunye laughed coldly, “You’re the mistress, bringing shame to our Xu family. If you didn’t resemble Dad slightly, I’d really think you were picked up from the streets.”
Xu Yunye was tired of Xu Xingluo’s dual facades—docile and charming in front of the elders, shameless and mischievous in his presence.
Even the identity of “younger sister” was something she had cried and fought to get.
According to their grandmother, she was the first to be born, originally the older sister. But at the age of three or four, she cried and insisted on being the younger sister.
Since then, the Xu family had one more pampered young lady.
Xu Xingluo glared at him with anger puffing her cheeks, “You’re the one who was picked up. The most superfluous person in our family is you!”
Xu Yunye glanced at her coldly, “Do you need me to tell Huo Xingzhou about what you did abroad?”
Xu Xingluo’s face turned pale.
Xu Yunye contemptuously walked past her and entered his room.
