Chapter 230 - 230 The Hidden Genius
230 The Hidden Genius
“How is it? I said it can be eaten!” Su Qing looked at Huo Qi’s shocked expression seriously and said proudly, her tone even smug.
Huo Qi tasted it carefully in disbelief. This was something he had personally made? Could it be that he was a culinary genius whose secret abilities had been buried for many years? How could it be so delicious? He couldn’t believe it.
“If I hadn’t been in this line of work, I might have been a good chef!”
Huo Qi was just joking, but the serious Su Qing really considered it seriously. “I don’t think so. You have to practice more. As a chef, you have to be at least as good as Third Master!”
Huo Qi couldn’t help but pinch Su Qing’s face. He smiled dotingly, but didn’t say anything.
After eating this breakfast that was painstakingly prepared, Su Qing extinguished the fire and took the initiative to take the backpack. She looked up at Huo Qi, who was also prepared, and said calmly, “Let’s go.”
Huo Qi looked at her and smiled. “The sky is already bright, and I’m fine. Why don’t you go back and find your companions? After all, what I’m going to do is still a little dangerous!”
Su Qing looked at him, her big eyes filled with confusion. She didn’t say anything, but Huo Qi understood what she meant.
She was asking him, ‘What nonsense are you talking about?’
Huo Qi smiled faintly and raised his hands in surrender. He compromised, “Alright, alright, alright. Let’s go over together. But let me make this clear first. You have to listen to me and not barge in alone.”
Su Qing glanced at him indifferently and walked in front, complaining, “You’re really talkative. Aren’t we just going to rob a dock that no longer has a leader? What’s the big deal?”
Huo Qi was speechless.
Resigned to his fate, Mr. Huo followed her. He wanted to look up and ask the heavens what he should do if his wife was too strong, but Su Qing didn’t give him the time and opportunity.
In Su Qing’s eyes, it seemed like it was easy for them to go to the pier to retrieve the goods.
Actually, it was really not difficult.
The military’s cleanup operation was completed very smoothly and perfectly. In the morning, Huo Qi realized that there was already a signal on the satellite phone. He sent Huo Jue his location, and within half an hour, Huo Qi and Su Qing met the Huo family members who had come to support them not far from the river.
Huo Ming had brought dozens of elite subordinates and five powerful and expensive speedboats to support Huo Qi. When he saw the disheveled but energetic Huo Qi, he bowed deeply to Su Qing gratefully.
“Miss Su has done the Huo family a huge favor. Please accept my sincere gratitude.” As he spoke, he looked up at Su Qing and smiled respectfully. “Thank you for saving my son’s life last night.”
Su Qing was stunned. Huo Qi sat at the side and explained to her gently, “He’s Huo Feng’s father and my butler.”
When Su Qing heard this, she nodded. From the looks of it, Huo Feng had probably discussed this with Huo Ming, and he was here to take over Huo Feng’s remaining work.
Huo Qi raised his hand and gestured for Huo Ming to leave. Looking at the silent Su Qing, he smiled faintly and said, “Huo Ming is such a rule-abiding person. You’ll understand when you interact with him more in the future.”
Su Qing looked up at him. Her intuition told her that there was a trap in Huo Qi’s words, but she didn’t care. Instead, she was more interested in Huo Qi’s next plans.
“What are you going to do next? Are you going to dash into the pier and snatch your goods back? Do you need me to tell Third Master? The military probably won’t allow you to go overboard! However, this matter is indeed Scorpion’s fault. You can do whatever you want.”
Huo Qi leaned against the railing of the wide yacht and said to Su Qing in a wicked tone, “What’s the matter? Are you opening a backdoor for your husband? Is Third Master easy to talk to? Should I speak to him personally?”
Su Qing looked at the shameless Mr. Huo speechlessly and frowned as she started to reflect. Should she not have agreed to his strange request last night?
After Huo Qi slept on her legs for the night, he seemed to have become a different person. He became even more shameless and childish!
Su Qing didn’t know that this was Huo Qi’s true colors. He was honest, sincere, passionate, and stubborn! In front of the woman he liked, he refused to put on any pretenses.
