Huo Yanqing frowned slightly. Why did he forget to tell Shen Tingxi, "Don't listen to his nonsense."
"Xiaoxi said you are all together, you still want to lie to me?"
"I did not lie to you… "
"Xiao Wu, your father and your brothers left early. There are only two boys in our Huo family, you and Xiaobai. Xiaobai is still young. I am an old man and I will definitely not be able to wait for him to get married and have children. And you , I’m 28 and still single. I won’t be able to see the ancestors of the Huo family even if I die in the future... "
Huo Yan listened to the intermittent fake crying on the other end of the phone, pinched her forehead with a headache, sighed softly, and said helplessly: "Yes, I have a girlfriend."
"Really?" The voice on the other end suddenly became extremely loud, and there was no trace of crying just now.
"Um."
"Then when will you take it home and show it to me?"
"Take it slow, she's still young..."
"But I am already old. Do you want me to be buried without even seeing my daughter-in-law?"
"You are in good health and you will definitely be able to see her."
"Recently, my chest often feels tight in the middle of the night, and sometimes I can't breathe..." The voice stained with fake crying came again, "I must be sick. If this continues, I'm afraid..."
"I'll take her to see you as soon as possible." Huo Yanqing interrupted the other party in time to curse her.
"As soon as possible? My body..."
"Mom, it's too much."
There was an awkward coughing sound on the phone. After a while, the coughing stopped, "Then I'll wait, don't make me wait too long, or I..."
"Don't check her out, I'm not happy."
"...Okay, I'll just wait and wait, okay?"
"Um."
"Xiaowu, if you are really filial, please show it to me quickly. I won't choose. As long as it is your choice, it must be the best. I just want to see my daughter-in-law, okay?" The tone behind it was close. beg.
"Um."
Huo Yanqing hung up the phone and the car fell into silence.
Shu Xin didn't know what the other party said, but she knew from Huo Yanqing's answer that the other party was his mother.
He also said that he had a girlfriend and his mother asked him to take her back to meet his parents as soon as possible.
And that sentence, "Don't check her out, I won't be happy."
His words were full of pampering.
Shu Xin felt extremely uncomfortable, as if she had been pricked by a needle. There was no blood flowing out, but her heart was already in pain.
Shu Xin tried her best to hide her emotions along the way, but Song Li still noticed something strange.
Song Li asked: "Miss Shu, you don't look good. Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Shu Xin forced herself to smile, "It's okay. Maybe I haven't had a good rest in the past few days. I just need to go back and take a nap."
Huo Yanqing frowned slightly, "Would you like to sleep in the car for a while?"
I don't know why, but hearing Huo Yanqing's caring words made Shu Xin feel even more uncomfortable, and there was a hint of anger growing up. Since he had a sweetheart, why was he so nice to her
Shu Xin said nothing and turned sideways with her back facing Huo Yanqing as if she was angry.
Huo Yanqing didn't hear the answer and shouted softly, "Xin'er..."
Shu Xin closed her eyes and said nothing.
Song Li glanced at Shu Xin through the rearview mirror, lowered his voice and said, "Fifth Master, Miss Shu is asleep."
The entire journey was silent.
The car stopped at the entrance of the residential complex where Shu Xin and Tong Qiao rented.
When she felt comfortable, she opened her eyes, turned to Huo Yanqing and said, "Thank you, Uncle Wu. I'm here and I'm getting off the car."
Huo Yanqing could hear the alienation and politeness in Shu Xin's words. She frowned slightly and told Song Li, "Help her send her luggage up."
