“I was wondering why you didn’t come looking for me. It turns out that you have already found someone.” Huo Jue’s nasty voice instantly made Xia Jin’s heart sink.

“You’ve misunderstood.”

“Did I interrupt your date? Then, I’m really sorry.” Huo Jue’s tone tinged with an unconcealed mockery.

At the same time, a girl’s panting sound came from Huo Jue’s side. “Mr. Huo, you…”

It was Dong Yue’s voice.

Xia Jin’s eyes turned cold. “If there’s nothing else, then I won’t disturb Mr. Huo.”

Huo Jue snorted coldly. “Come here to Phoenix Club in half an hour.” Then, he hung up the phone before Xia Jin could say anything.

After hanging up the phone, Duke Huo threw Dong Yue’s phone away. He looked down and saw that he was grabbing her wrist. A hint of annoyance flashed in his eyes, and he shook Dong Yue’s hand off immediately.

Before Dong Yue could leap with joy that her wrist was suddenly held by Huo Jue, he had already flashed an impatient look at her.

“Was that… Senior Xia just now?” Dong Yue asked cautiously.

Huo Jue lifted his eyes and said nonchalantly, “Are you very curious about me?”

“No.” Dong Yue’s heart was beating extremely fast, and she explained hurriedly, “Then, I’ll go charge your phone.”

After Dong Yue bit her red lips and left, Huo Jue’s face fell without the slightest hint of disguise.

Just now, a man’s voice came from Xia Jin’s side.

Who was it?

He had heard that Xia Jin was victimized by the rumors recently and had intended to call her to ask her about it, but he hadn’t expected to find out that she would actually be on a date with another man.

Huo Jue’s eyes were cold, and a dangerous aura emanated from his body.

Xia Jin closed her phone and frowned for a long time, but she had to go to the clubhouse to see Huo Jue.

Huo Jue’s temper was not to be taken lightly, and his tone was so bad just now. If she dared to disobey his orders again, she would not be able to continue staying in the capital.

“Boyfriend?” Xu Chuan, who was next to her, suddenly asked.

Xia Jin froze. She did not expect Xu Chuan to still be here. She shook her head immediately and said, “No, it’s… my former boss.”

“Oh,” Xu Chuan replied with a look of understanding, not knowing if he had formed any association in his mind about Xia Jin’s relationship with Huo Jue.

“I’ll take my leave first then…” Xia Jin waved her hand when she saw a taxi approaching.

She had just gotten into the back seat of the car, and to her surprise, Xu Chuan also squeezed in.

“You…” Xia Jin was a little surprised–someone like Xu Chuan shouldn’t be so poor as to want to carpool with her, right?

Xu Chuan smiled and pointed his finger outwards.

Xia Jin looked in the direction he indicated. She happened to see the old lady standing in front of the window on the second floor, looking in their direction.

Xia Jin was rendered speechless.

“Don’t worry, I won’t disturb you.” Xu Chuan smiled apologetically. “I have to show better behavior this time, otherwise I won’t be able to go home this New Year.”

Xia Jin did not say anything else and gave the address to the driver.

When they arrived at the Phoenix Entertainment Club, Xia Jin and Xu Chuan got out of the car. Just as Xia Jin was about to bid farewell to Xu Chuan, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure from the corner of her eye, and her face turned a few shades paler instantly.

Zhou Qi, wearing a checkered shirt, was getting out of the car next to her.

Xia Jin did not expect to bump into Zhou Qi here. Her heart was pounding, and she grabbed Xu Chuan over hurriedly so that he could block her.

Xu Chuan was grabbed by Xia Jin violently. He saw the woman in front of him hiding in front of him in a panic, as if she had seen something scary.

“… what’s wrong?” Xu Chuan said a little speechlessly.

Xia Jin said nervously, “Don’t say anything.”

Zhou Qi was about to enter the clubhouse, and he shouldn’t have noticed her… cold sweat almost broke out on the corner of Xia Jin’s forehead.

“Mr. Huo…” When Dong Yue entered, she saw Huo Jue standing in front of the window. She placed the fruit plate on the table carefully and was about to say something when she saw that Huo Jue did not seem to hear her at all.

Huo Jue’s cold gaze passed through the transparent glass and landed on the man and woman snuggling together in front of the parking lot. A fierce, murderous aura emanated from him instantly.

Dong Yue felt as if the temperature in the room had plummeted by more than ten degrees. Her heart clenched violently, and before she could react, she saw Huo Jue turn around with an icy expression.

“Get lost.” Huo Jue’s tone was frigidly cold. Dong Yue trembled, not daring to speak again. She cowered and got out.

“Thank you.” Xia Jin let out a long sigh of relief and loosened her hand that was holding Xu Chuan’s shirt.

Xu Chuan looked at his wrinkled shirt and fell silent.

“Leave me your contact information.” Xia Jin was a little embarrassed. She remembered that she was here on a blind date with the man in front of her. So, in order to avoid exposing herself in front of the old lady, she took out her phone and added Xu Chuan as a friend.

Xu Chuan did not refuse.

It was only when Xia Jin was adding him as a friend, Xu Chuan suddenly sensed that something was wrong. He turned his head slowly and gazed at the tall building of the clubhouse behind him.

Before Xu Chuan could find the source of that cold and hostile gaze, the curtains of a window were pulled shut..
