Chapter 5: Time to Change the Address

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Huo Quan rubbed her head. “Don’t say anything when we get home. Leave everything to me.”

“But…” Li Miaoke pursed her lips. She knew that her status in the Li family was awkward. She was Li Biao’s illegitimate daughter. Her mother passed away when she was three years old, leaving her to live under someone else’s roof. Although the Li family didn’t treat her harshly, they never let her feel the warmth of home.

Huo Quan sighed and pulled the little girl into his arms. “I’m here.”

How could he bear to let his little girl be hurt?

Li Miaoke was irritated by his action. She was both embarrassed and angry. “Brother Huo! I’m going to be eighteen soon. I’m an adult now. Don’t keep hugging me like that.”

“Yeah, you’re going to be an adult soon.” Huo Quan laughed softly. “You’re going to be my bride soon too.”

Li Miaoke covered her face. D * mn it, she didn’t mean it that way!

The two of them didn’t go straight back to the Li family’s home. Li Miaoke had a class to attend. If they went back at this time, the Li family would start gossiping again. Therefore, Huo Quan brought Li Miaoke to his villa.

“Brother Huo…” Li Miaoke hopped behind him.

Huo Quan stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Li Miaoke, who was smiling. His gentle voice carried a hint of mirth. “Miaoke, it’s time for you to change your address.”

Li Miaoke tilted her head. Change her address? Change her address to what?

Huo Quan’s heart softened when he saw her adorable expression. He held Li Miaoke’s hand as they walked into the living room and sat down on the sofa. Huo Quan rested his chin on Li Miaoke’s shoulder and pressed his well-defined lips against her earlobe. He called out in a low and hoarse voice, “Wife.”

Li Miaoke’s body trembled. She felt the temperature of her earlobe rising rapidly. Instinctively, she wanted to get up and escape. But how could Huo Quan give her the chance to escape? He had already trapped her in his arms.

When Wei Ling came over with the fruit juice, he saw this scene. He paused for a moment, and a smile appeared on his cold face. Then, without saying anything, he took the fruit juice and went out again.

Huo Quan glanced at him and turned his attention to Li Miaoke again. His lips pecked her earlobe, and he asked in a low and husky voice, “What’s wrong?”

Li Miaoke dodged him and stammered, “I, I think I can sit. No, you don’t have to do this…” she felt her heart was about to jump out of her chest. She couldn’t resist him acting like this!

“Ha.” Huo Quan laughed hoarsely. “Then call me husband, and I’ll let you sit next to me.”

Li Miaoke was speechless.

She felt like she was about to break down. “Brother… Brother Huo, we… We’re not husband and wife yet. Isn’t it a little inappropriate to call you that?”

“We’re going to be husband and wife soon.” Even though he said that, Huo Quan still let go of Li Miaoke. He knew that he couldn’t push the little girl too hard. If he went too far, it might completely trigger the little girl’s rebelliousness.

Li Miaoke immediately jumped out of Huo Quan’s arms as soon as she got her freedom. She couldn’t help but raise her hand to touch her earlobe. Her little face was red as she complained, “Brother Huo, you’re not allowed to do this in the future.”

Ever since he took control of the Huo family, no one besides Li Miaoke had dared to speak to Huo Quan in such a commanding tone. If it were anyone else..

Huo Quan smiled. “Huh? What am I not allowed to do?”

“You’re not allowed to… kiss…” Li Miaoke stomped her feet. She couldn’t say anything else, so she simply moved to Huo Quan’s side. Her fair and tender fingertips poked Huo Quan’s body. “Don’t you have a psychological burden when you treat me like this and that? You’ve always been my older brother. All of a sudden, you said that you wanted to marry me. You even took my first… kiss, and even touched me…”

“Brother? I’ve never thought of you as my sister, so how can I be your brother?” Huo Quan suddenly turned around and trapped Li Miaoke under his body. His deep voice contained some sort of repression. “It seems that my feelings were too inconspicuous before, which is why you thought that I was just your brother.”

Huo Quan’s lips curled into a smile. “But it’s not too late to correct it…” under Li Miaoke’s shocked gaze, he slowly kissed her lips. Unlike the previous kiss, this kiss seemed to carry a sense of punishment.

The collision of lips and teeth and the intense exchange of breath made Li Miaoke whimper. She couldn’t help but push him away. Huo Quan grabbed Li Miaoke’s wrist with one hand and firmly held her down. He lifted her skirt with the other hand, then reached inside.
