Chapter 103: A Public Kiss, Full of Affection

"Ah! The child!"

"Careful now!"

Qiao Xi's face was stricken with fear as she clutched the child in her arms tightly, ready to use her body as a cushion to protect the little one.

In the blink of an eye, a strong arm encircled her upper body, pulling her into an embrace. She steadied herself, standing dumbfounded as she looked at the man who had hastily appeared before her.

His features were handsome, his expression cool and collected. His eyes were dark as ink, irresistibly drawing one in.

The child in her arms wailed loudly.

Qiao Xi was still in shock when Yang Yuerong took the child over, examining it with tender concern.

"Mr. Huo..." Qiao Xi wanted to explain but wasn't sure how to begin.

It seemed like she had been tripped by someone, but she couldn't be certain who. There were too many guests around, and it was unclear what their intentions were.

Huo Xingzhou gently pinched the back of her hand, a gesture meant to comfort.
