Chapter 239: Suspecting Poppy
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Poppy heard this, her lips curled up in amusement. “It’s alright, Young Master Huo. I’m the only one who protects others. No one in the world has the ability to protect me.”
When Huo Xuan heard this, he nodded in understanding. Then, he loosened his grip and calmly took out a card from his pocket. On it was a name and a string of numbers. He handed the card to Poppy and said with a smile, “In that case, I won’t keep you any longer. However, you might encounter some unpredictable danger along the way. If there’s anything you can’t solve, you can call this person. He will help you deal with it.”
Ying Su followed Huo Xuan’s words and turned to look at the number on the card. Just as she saw the string of numbers, she was instantly stunned for two seconds. Her fingers trembled slightly as she forced herself to remain calm and took the card. She said, “Thank you for your concern and care, Young Master Huo.”!!
The moment the card was handed out, Mo Zhu sat beside Huo Xuan and looked at it curiously. When she saw the number on the card, her eyes darkened.
After saying this, Poppy politely closed the car door and walked into the trees by the highway without looking back.
After sending Poppy away, the car returned to silence. Xu Huan was sitting in the front passenger seat, looking sleepy. Mo Zhu was leaning lightly against the back of the seat, quietly observing Huo Xuan.
If the string of numbers she saw just now wasn’t written wrongly, that should be Black Tiger’s contact number. Furthermore, it wasn’t a public number used by the Love Pavilion.
Mo Zhu frowned slightly, not understanding why Huo Xuan had handed Black Tiger’s name card to Ying Su. The two of them were staff members of the Love Pavilion. Could it be that Huo Xuan had already guessed their identities?
She had no clue at all. The more Mo Zhu thought about it, the more frustrated she felt. Ever since she helped Black Tiger avoid Huo Xuan’s pursuit the last time, she had sensed that something was wrong. She really didn’t know how Black Tiger had provoked Huo Xuan. The man had spent so much effort to capture him and even ordered her to help him.
Putting everything else aside, she was the one who was going to have a hard time. Both parties had a good relationship with her, and it would appear that she was biased if she helped either of them.
Seeing that Mo Zhu looked like she had something on her mind, Huo Xuan frowned slightly. He leaned close to the girl and gently rubbed her hair. “What’s wrong? Are you still thinking about Qingyuan Village?”
Mo Zhu raised her eyes indifferently and glanced at Huo Xuan. She turned around and looked out the window before answering softly, “I’m fine.”
As the journey from Qingyuan Village to Cloud City was very long, after driving for five hours, Xu Huan and Mo Wu got out of the car and changed seats before Xu Huan started driving.
Just as Mo Wu sat in the front passenger seat, he buckled his seatbelt and couldn’t wait to turn around and ask Huo Xuan, “Young Master, did you observe Ms. Mo’s friend carefully today? Do you think she looks like someone?”
When Huo Xuan heard this, he first turned his head and glanced at Mo Zhu lightly. After confirming that the girl had already started breathing evenly, he looked up at Mo Wu and said, “Yes, and then?”
Mo Wu didn’t quite understand what Huo Xuan meant. He immediately scratched his head and replied, “There’s no then. I just think that she looks like someone, but if you want me to explain in detail, I really can’t remember the person who looks like her.”
Huo Xuan turned his head and stared at Mo Zhu’s sleeping face. He smiled lightly and replied, “She’s like Poppy.”
If Huo Xuan hadn’t seen through Yang Lan’s disguise, he wouldn’t have stopped the woman and handed her Black Tiger’s contact details.. From Yang Lan’s expression and posture just now, it was hard to say that she didn’t know Black Tiger.
