Chapter 879 - no one is allowed to leave
Chapter 879: 879, no one is allowed to leave!
Chapter 879: 879, no one is allowed to leave!
Shi Huan fell on the steps as if weightless, then rolled down and finally, her head heavily struck the concrete floor with a loud “thud”.
There was nothing around to grasp, making the scene utterly shocking.
Chu Xiuhuang rushed over immediately.
On the phone, the old Mr. Chu asked anxiously, “What happened? What exactly is going on over there?”
The next second, the phone completely lost its signal.
**
The screams of Shi Qingge drew the attention of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the living room.
Qian Yulin hurriedly helped her mother-in-law out, and upon seeing Shi Huan unconscious in Chu Xiuhuang’s arms, eyes closed, with what seemed like a broken patch on her forehead, bleeding…
“Huanhuan, what’s wrong with you!”
Qian Yulin rushed over hastily.
Just as she tried to touch Shi Huan’s face, she was stopped mid-way by a vice-like grip and then was fiercely thrown off.
Caught off guard, Qian Yulin fell backward onto the ground, her wrist aching intensely, her face full of shock.
Especially when she saw Chu Xiuhuang’s cold and grim expression…
Although he didn’t even look at her and directly picked up Shi Huan, he strode out.
“Xiuhuang!” Qian Yulin scrambled to her feet, not thinking twice before chasing after him, only to see the man suddenly stop.
He turned around.
His handsome face was exceptionally cold, “All three of you, stay put and don’t move, nobody is allowed to leave!”
Qian Yulin was stunned.
Shi Qingge was also somewhat scared by his demeanor.
Mrs. Shi was furious, “What do you mean by this? Are you treating us like criminals?”
Chu Xiuhuang’s gloomy gaze swept past the three, looking at the servant behind them, “Call the old man, tell him to come back immediately! And these three women, if one leaves, I’ll hold you responsible!”
Having said this, he turned and carried Shi Huan away.
His steps were large and he moved quickly.
Mrs. Shi was furiously indignant, “This is outrageous!”
She kept tapping her cane on the steps, “What is this attitude? He didn’t even greet me when he saw me, and he directed us around! Is this how he treats his elders? Ah!”
“Mom.” Qian Yulin couldn’t help but speak up, “Didn’t you see Huanhuan is hurt?”
“It’s just a crack on the head, some blood, right? In the past, didn’t she come out fine after being with a few men…”
“Mom, what are you saying?” Qian Yulin rarely choked her mother-in-law and sounded very upset, “Huanhuan wasn’t… that’s all nonsense from others. Later, Xiuhuang sent those people to the police station, and they confessed they only hit Huanhuan. Huanhuan was saved by an old man, she only had superficial injuries, she definitely did not…”
“Enough already.” Mrs. Shi interrupted impatiently, “All day long your eyes are only on your useless younger daughter, your older daughter is still standing right here, are you blind?”
Upon hearing this, Shi Qingge immediately sobbed out loud, “It’s all my fault… I just couldn’t hold Huanhuan, it’s my fault…”
Qian Yulin asked anxiously, “Qingge, what exactly happened? How did Huanhuan fall down from here?”
“I really didn’t know,” Shi Qingge explained as she wiped her tears. “I was just out to see Aunt Chu off when Axui brought Huanhuan back. She got so angry when she found out we were here, claimed this was a military zone and family disgrace shouldn’t be aired, demanding that we leave immediately! I just couldn’t stand her attitude. Does marrying into the Chu Family make her better than us? How can she disrespect Grandma like that? It’s all my fault. I couldn’t hold back and snapped at her a few times, and she got angry, turned to leave and accidentally stepped into empty space and fell.”
After hearing this, Old Mrs. Shi said, “Then it’s just her being careless, right? You’re not to blame!”
Shi Qingge continued to blame herself, “I shouldn’t have argued with her. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have had such a careless fall. It’s all my fault… It’s my mistake…”
“Since that is the case,” Qian Yulin suggested, “why don’t we all go to the hospital to see Huanhuan…”
“Enough, enough, she’s not some Lin Daiyu. She just scraped her head a bit. What’s there to see!” Having said that, Old Mrs. Shi ordered her daughter-in-law, “Go inside and get my purse, and we’ll go home first.”
“…Okay,” Qian Yulin could only agree.
She walked into the living room, picked up the handbag on the couch, and was about to leave when a servant who had just finished a phone call immediately followed her, “Old Madam, the young master says you can’t leave…”
Old Mrs. Shi sternly asked, “How long have I been here? Old man Chu hasn’t shown his face, and others leave without a word, leaving an old woman like me hanging here for over an hour, and now you’re stopping me from leaving? Is this how the Chu Family treats its guests?”
The servant said, “I’m sorry, Old Madam, we’re just following the Young Master’s orders…”
“Just because your young master says we can’t leave, we’re supposed to stay? Who are you trying to scare! I’ll tell you, this is a society ruled by law! Does he still think he’s some bandit leader on the mountain? No laws anymore, is that it? I’m leaving now, let’s see who dares to stop me!” Old Mrs. Shi declared and turned to leave.
The servant naturally didn’t dare to physically stop her.
If things were to escalate and the mother-in-law got even slightly hurt, the situation would surely worsen.
Qian Yulin was still hoping to persuade, “Mom, why don’t we wait a bit longer? Axui was just in a rush when he said those things…”
“Enough, shut up!” Old Mrs. Shi was truly furious with her daughter-in-law. “How can our Shi Family have such a disgraceful daughter-in-law? You were pushed to the ground just now, and yet you still speak well of him? You don’t want to leave, do you? Fine! Qingge, let’s go!”
Shi Qingge hurried to help Old Mrs. Shi, “Grandma, please be careful.”
The two of them really just left like that.
Qian Yulin stood there, torn.
On one hand, she was very worried about Huanhuan, who had bled and was still unconscious, fearing something bad might happen…
But on the other hand, she dared not oppose her mother-in-law…
A few seconds later, Qian Yulinc clenched her teeth and followed.
Old Mrs. Shi saw from the corner of her eye that her daughter-in-law had followed, sneered coldly, her face instantly appearing more smug.
**
But when the three of them reached the gate of the military zone and were about to leave…
“Stop!”
Shi Qingge’s heart skipped a beat.
Two young soldiers stood at the gate, blocking their way.
Soon, a middle-aged man emerged from the security office, seeming to be in his forties or fifties, dressed in a green military uniform, exuding a commanding presence. His gaze was particularly cold and intimidating.
Even Old Mrs. Shi looked somewhat apprehensive.
Qian Yulin also didn’t dare to speak.
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on freёwebnoѵel.com.
Finally, it was Shi Qingge who gathered her courage, “What are you doing?”
The officer, expressionless, replied, “We received a call from the Chu Family. You cannot leave for now.”
Old Mrs. Shi hadn’t expected Chu Xiuhuang to actually mean it?
This little brat!
“Why can’t we leave?” she began to throw a tantrum, “We came to find old man Chu, and now that he isn’t home, are we supposed to keep waiting in his house?”
The officer was unmoved, “We just checked the surveillance video at the entrance of the Chu Family’s house…”
He looked at Shi Qingge, “The video shows that Ms. Shi is suspected of intentional injury, so you can’t leave now because the police will be here soon.”
Shi Qingge turned pale.
Qian Yulin sharply turned to look at her daughter.
Old Lady Shi was also shocked and bewildered, hardly daring to believe her granddaughter could do such a thing…
**
The private car of the Chu Family arrived almost simultaneously with the 110 police car.
The car door opened, and a small old man in traditional attire briskly walked over.
As they waited, Old Lady Shi had already thought of a strategy. As soon as the small old man approached, she immediately took the initiative to explain, “Dear Grandpa-in-law, Qingge already explained to me, she really didn’t push Huanhuan, it’s all a misunderstanding…”
“A misunderstanding?” Old Master Chu huffed twice, “You think there’s no evidence just because nobody saw it? Every household in the courtyard is equipped with surveillance cameras specifically to deal with vile women like you who dare to act but not own up!”
Old Lady Shi didn’t expect Old Master Chu to be so unforgiving, and her face fell immediately.
“Grandpa Chu…” Shi Qingge hurriedly spoke, “I really didn’t do it on purpose, Huanhuan is my own younger sister, how could I possibly push her? I was trying to pull her…”
She thought that by taking a humble attitude and explaining proactively, Old Master Chu would possibly soften his heart and forgive her because of their past good relations.
Who knew…
“I really misjudged you.” Old Master Chu spoke in a tone filled with deep loathing, “To think I once believed, among all the women my grandson fancied, there was one with a good reputation from an honorable family, but it turns out… you’re even more vicious than those vixens outside! You even dare to harm your own sister, and right under the surveillance cameras during broad daylight! How dare you?”
“I… I really didn’t do it on purpose… Grandpa Chu, listen to my explanation…”
“All lies! Self-contradictory!” Old Master Chu was tired of arguing, “That’s enough, Officer Wang, proceed according to the rules. This woman has no relation to the Chu Family anymore, take her away immediately!”
The police officer called Officer Wang with a glance, immediately had police coming over to make the arrest.
At this point, Shi Qingge was in complete panic, desperately clinging to Old Lady Shi’s arm, “I won’t go, grandma save me, grandma save me…”
Old Lady Shi was jerked back and forth, looking pathetic, but no matter what she said, the police without a word pulled out handcuffs and directly handcuffed Shi Qingge.
Old Lady Shi, furious, shouted at Old Master Chu, “Old man Chu, Qingge is Huanhuan’s own elder sister, our Shi Family is your in-laws, and you dare treat us this way…”
“Cut the crap!” Old Master Chu, furious, cursed, “I had warned you long ago, although Huanhuan’s surname is Shi, she suffered too much and endured many hardships in the Shi Family. Once she got married, she belonged to our Chu Family! She has nothing to do with your Shi Family! Such shameless in-laws I do not acknowledge! Today you arrived uninvited, even dared to harm Huanhuan, and it was all caught on surveillance, yet you still have the audacity to argue here? Do you really think my Chu Family is easy to bully? Shameless! Absolutely shameless!”
“…” Old Lady Shi was dumbstruck.
Isn’t the Chu Family a family of scholars?
From top to bottom, all are scholars, poets, calligraphers, painters… and so on.
The most notable is Mrs. Chu, who always acts so aloof, not even bothering to greet others, with her nose practically pointing to the sky!
Old Master Chu, a leading figure in the literary world, is sometimes seen on the television news, and now…
She blurted out, “Do you know what we came here for today!”
Old Master Chu looked impatient.
Grandma Shi said, “Qingge has told me everything. Luoluo is her biological daughter, unrelated to Huanhuan. The woman who had an affair with your grandson years ago was Qingge, not Huanhuan!”
Hearing this, Grandfather Chu burst into laughter, “Absurd! Truly absurd! Axui and Huanhuan got their marriage registered months ago and even went through a paternity test. Luoluo is indeed their daughter. Now out of the blue, you, as her sister, claim to be Luoluo’s mother. Do you have any proof?”
Shi Qingge clenched her fingers, “Huanhuan got injured and lost her memory of that time, I don’t blame her, but indeed, the woman who was with Axui was me. It was he who pursued me back then; otherwise, I wouldn’t have kept the child after discovering I was pregnant…”
“If that’s the case, why didn’t you seek Axui when you gave birth? Instead, you show up now? What’s with this suicide act? You disappeared for five years, I really thought you had died!”
Shi Qingge’s face changed slightly, “I… After giving birth, I went to study in France; my family had just gone bankrupt, and we were heavily in debt. I did it because I had no choice…”
“So you fled far away, let Huanhuan help pay off your family’s debts, and even let her bear the disgrace of being pregnant before marriage?” Grandfather Chu said sternly, “If that’s true, don’t you, as a sister, feel ashamed? Huanhuan worked hard for five years to pay off the debts. Now she’s finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, having married my grandson and formed a happy family of three. Yet you return now, claiming the child? That’s clearly out of jealousy and spite, intending to destroy it!”
“No, I didn’t!” Shi Qingge frantically opposed, “I just wanted to meet Luoluo. I had no intention to cause harm. It was Axui. He was the first to make a move and even threatened me…”
“Axui has been polite to you!” Grandfather Chu was beside himself with anger, “Now tell me, are you people from the Shi Family even humane? Is Huanhuan really your daughter from the Shi Family? Why do you treat your daughters so differently? And now you have the audacity to come complaining first?”
“I didn’t…” Shi Qingge’s tears started to fall.
Seeing her granddaughter like this, Grandma Shi felt unbearably heartbroken, “Huanhuan is my granddaughter. As a member of the Shi Family, she has a responsibility to bear the debts! And back then, she took it upon herself to pay the debts, we didn’t force her! This matter is different from that of the child!”
“You’ve lived so long, your life might as well have been in vain! Confused!” Grandfather Chu felt a headache coming on, “Enough, I don’t want to hear any more of this nonsense. My daughter-in-law is Huanhuan! You shameless people… Get out of here at once!”
He firmly believed his judgment was never wrong.
Huanhuan had worked in Chu Xiuhuang’s company for many years, always diligent and outstanding professionally, yet modest and steady privately, always well-behaved and never involved in any scandals.
With his grandson being such a catch, being with her day in, day out at the company, yet he never thought of “taking advantage of the proximity to the water to get the first dibs on the moon”?
In the end, it was he, as the elder, who facilitated their marriage, successfully making her the Chu Family’s granddaughter-in-law…
Since the wedding three months ago, Huanhuan had continued to behave very well, treating his not-so-fond mother-in-law with due respect on every occasion.
Not to mention to him, the grandfather, bringing the child over from time to time for family reunions, often cooking personally to comfort him…
In summary, in Grandfather Chu’s eyes, Huanhuan was a girl with a righteous mind, very suitable for a steady domestic life.
“Grandfather Chu!” Shi Qingge called out, “I can go for a paternity test with Luoluo!”
Her tone was agitated, but as she spoke, her gaze and expression contained not a trace of guilt or hesitation.
“Look, my granddaughter is even willing to undergo a paternity test. Could this matter still be false?” Grandma Shi immediately echoed, unwavering in her belief in her granddaughter.
Although Grandfather Chu had already been certain that Huanhuan was Luoluo’s biological mother, at this moment he couldn’t help but narrow his eyes.
Shi Qingge and Huanhuan were sister, and regardless of who Luoluo’s biological mother was, there would definitely be a genetic link. Although a paternity test might be complex, the percentage of DNA match should be able to determine who actually shared a closer blood relationship with Luoluo…
Shi Qingge couldn’t possibly be unaware of this fact, yet she was so sure? And so insistent, without showing any guilt? This…
The next second, Grandfather Chu immediately said, “I don’t care whether you do it or not, I have already acknowledged Huanhuan as my granddaughter-in-law!”
Grandma Shi was speechless, “Old man, you can’t be like this…”
“What are you still standing around for?” Grandfather Chu bristled, “Hurry up, take her away!”
The police started to lead Shi Qingge away.
“Grandma! Mom! Save me! Please save me!”
Qian Yulin and Grandma Shi hurried after them, even trying to pull the police away…
The scene was very chaotic.
Grandfather Chu took the opportunity to head back to his car, “Old Wu, go to Nangong Hospital quickly.”
“Okay, old master.”
The driver, Old Wu, immediately turned the car around.
It wasn’t long before Shi Qingge was also put into a police car, which whistled away.
There were quite a few onlookers watching the excitement, while Qian Yulin was already so frightened and at a loss, “What should we do? Mom, why was Qingge taken away by the police? What should we do now…”
Madam Shi gripped her cane tightly, her old face clouded with worry.
Finally, she snapped and slapped her hand down.
With a “smack,” Qian Yulin felt pain on her face, causing her whole body to stagger to the side.
“Useless thing!” Madam Shi could only vent her anger on her daughter-in-law. “Look at the wonderful daughter you raised! How dare she lay a hand on her own sister! Now Qingge has been taken away by the police, are you satisfied now? Ungrateful brats! All of you, ungrateful brats who backstab their own family!”
She grew angrier as she spoke, swinging her cane toward Qian Yulin.
Qian Yulin cowered, dodging the hits non-stop.
Some bystanders couldn’t bear to watch and tried to intervene, but they were frightened off by the fierce look of the old lady.
Finally, when the old lady got tired, she put down her cane, breathing heavily.
A kind-hearted person approached, “Are you alright?”
Qian Yulin felt unbearable pain all over her body, her forehead bruised and swollen where she had been hit…
She shook her head, just about to speak.
With a “clang,” something fell to the ground.
Immediately after:
“The old lady has fainted!”
“Someone come quickly!”
“Call an ambulance!”
Seeing Madam Shi fall to the ground along with her cane, Qian Yulin was terrified out of her wits, no longer caring about her own pain, she rushed over, “Mom!”

Meanwhile, Chu Xiuhuang sped all the way and arrived at Nangong Hospital in less than 20 minutes.
He had already called Nangong Ci on the way.
So outside the emergency hall on the ground floor, Nangong Ci was already there with Doctor Liu and a group of medical staff, waiting grandly.
Shi Huan was orderly placed on a stretcher and quickly pushed into the emergency room.
In the corridor, Nangong Ci first sent a message in the group.
After putting down his phone, he saw Chu Xiuhuang standing there with a tight frown, his long eyebrows deeply furrowed, his narrow phoenix eyes staring unblinkingly at the emergency room.
His whole demeanor was tense and serious, his face clearly expressing four words — “burning with anxiety.”
“Second brother, don’t worry, your wife will definitely be fine,”
Chu Xiuhuang looked as if he hadn’t heard, showing no response.
Nangong Ci looked at him, then stood up and quickly brought over a cup of warm water, “Second brother, have some water first, calm down…”
With a “smack,”
The disposable paper cup was knocked to the corridor floor, soaking a large portion of Nangong Ci’s white lab coat with water…
But looking at the expression on someone’s face…
Forget it.
Nangong Ci could only hold his tongue.
No good deed goes unpunished!
He called the nurse to clean up the floor.
Then he found a spot to sit down and reply to messages in the group.
About twenty minutes later, the lights in the emergency room went out and the door opened.
Chu Xiuhuang rushed over, “How is she?”
Doctor Liu took off his mask, stepped aside, and let the medical staff push out the operating table.
Chu Xiuhuang looked at Shi Huan lying on the bed, her eyes closed, her forehead bandaged, her complexion slightly pale…
His handsome features suddenly appeared even colder.
Doctor Liu hurriedly explained, “Mrs. Chu’s brain was seriously injured previously, and this time it was hit again. The previously accumulated blood clot in her brain shifted, pressing on her brain nerves. Although the brain CT shows no obvious danger, Mrs. Chu is now in a deep coma, so it’s hard to say at this point.”
Nangong Ci frowned deeply.
Chu Xiuhuang pressed, “What does that mean?”
“It means that we can only wait for Mrs. Chu to wake up before deciding on further steps.”
Seeing Chu Xiuhang frown deeply, Doctor Liu quickly added, “Apart from the coma, Mrs. Chu does not have any external injuries. The forehead just has some superficial cuts, which don’t need stitches, and won’t leave any scars…”
His voice grew softer and softer.
In the end, Doctor Liu almost didn’t dare to speak.
“Alright, I’ve understood,” Nangong Ci spoke up, “Doctor Liu, you can go now.”
“Okay, thank you, Vice-President,” Doctor Liu gratefully wiped the sweat from his forehead and quickly turned to leave.
“Second brother,” Nangong Ci looked at the stormy and handsome face of the other man, “Doctor Liu means we need to wait for your wife to wake up. Although she hasn’t woken up yet, there shouldn’t be any major issue, you don’t need to worry too much…”
Chu Xiuhuang turned and walked away.
Nangong Ci twitched the corner of his mouth, only to follow him.
…
Upstairs in the hospital room.
Just as he stepped out of the elevator, Chu Xiuhuang’s phone rang.
He answered with some impatience, “What is it?”
The call was from Grandfather Chu.
He boastfully told his grandson that he had already reviewed the surveillance footage and had also sent Shi Qingge to the police station, finally asking, “By the way, my granddaughter-in-law is okay, right?”
“She’s still not awake.”
“She just fell, didn’t she? How come she’s still not awake? Did she pass out? Is it that serious?” Old Master Chu was angry, “Why didn’t you make it clear to me earlier? If I had known, I would have sent that old lady in too!”
“Do I need to tell you that? How do you even manage things? You weren’t even home when we had visitors!” Chu Xiuhuang lashed out at him.
“I went to your Uncle Wang’s house to catch crickets this afternoon…”
“Catch, catch, catch! All you ever do is play! You’re not young anymore and all you think about is playing! Go and spend your life with your crickets!” Having said that, Chu Xiuhuang hung up the phone.
Behind him, Nangong Ci shivered.
Oh my, the second brother’s temper is truly frightening!
I really sympathize with Grandfather Chu…
Chu Xiuhuang walked straight into the hospital room.
Nangong Ci was about to follow, but his phone rang.
It was Huo Jingshen asking for the room number.
Nangong Ci hurriedly started to type…
At that moment, the door of the hospital room behind him swung open, “Vice President.”
Nangong Ci sent the room number, turned around, and immediately put on a handsome smile, “Auntie Zhou.”
It was the servant who used to serve the little princess.
Auntie Zhou also smiled and asked, “Vice President, the gentleman wants to know about gallbladder surgery, how long is the maximum hospital stay?”
Nangong Ci said, “Mr. Mo is undergoing a minor surgery, a two-day observation in the hospital is sufficient, and he can be discharged once the attending doctor agrees.”
As Mo Weiyi left and Xiao Yebai took office at Mo Group, the turmoil within the Mo Family finally began to dissipate.
Mo Yaoxiong also stepped down from the company’s board of directors. It was said that the next day after stepping down, he went to the hospital for a thorough health checkup.
Maybe it was because he had endured for 10 years, but finally saw his own son acknowledge his ancestors and formally take over the company; as a father, his mentality has changed as well, paying more attention to his health.
Indeed, they discovered a minor issue, not serious—an intestinal gallstone.
The surgery occurred the afternoon before yesterday, and it’s been three days now. Logically, recovery from such a minor surgery should be quick, and he was honest about it.
To his surprise, Auntie Zhou said, “Vice President, actually, the gentleman means… he’d like to stay a few more days, can you arrange that? Within reasonable limits.”
Nangong Ci raised an eyebrow, “Is he feeling unwell anywhere else?”
Auntie Zhou smiled awkwardly, explaining tactfully, “The sir has been here for surgery and hospitalization for three days, and young master Xiao has not visited him, so…”
Nangong Ci: “…”
I understand.
**
Su Wanwan quickly arrived at the hospital with Huo Jingshen.
“How could this happen?”
Seeing Shi Huan unconscious, Su Wanwan was filled with regret, “If only I knew, I wouldn’t have left earlier. I thought about calling Grandfather Chu, with him here, nothing should have happened…”
Chu Xiuhuang didn’t speak.
It was Huo Jingshen who spoke, “What use would you have been?”
Su Wanwan looked at him, “What do you mean?”
Huo Jingshen said, “This husband here couldn’t even protect her properly, and you think you being by her side would have made a difference?”
Su Wanwan: “…”
Nangong Ci: “…”
Chu Xiuhuang’s eyelids twitched, but he remained silent.
Su Wanwan coughed softly and pulled on Huo Jingshen’s arm.
Then looking toward Chu Xiuhuang, she spoke softly, “Xiuhuang, rest assured, Huanhuan will be alright. Also, Luoluo is being taken care of by her grandmother, you don’t have to worry about her…”
Chu Xiuhuang still maintained his posture, sitting there, his gaze fixed on Shi Huan, still not speaking.
A deadly silence ensued in the hospital room.
“Alright.” Huo Jingshen checked the time, “It seems she won’t wake up anytime soon, let’s head back first.”
Su Wanwan was still worried, “Mistress, what did the doctor say?”
Nangong Ci briefly repeated what had been said.
Of course, he spoke optimistically.
Finally, he added, “Your sister-in-law is in a deep coma now, I estimate… it might still be several more hours before she wakes up. Perhaps you two should head back first.”
Huo Jingshen agreed.
Although Su Wanwan was worried, since Nangong Ci had put it that way, and seeing Chu Xiuhuang’s expression, clearly not wanting to communicate…
Forget it.
She nodded, “Okay then.”
She went to pick up her bag, ready to leave…
“Sister-in-law.” Suddenly, Chu Xiuhuang spoke.
Su Wanwan looked at him.
“Could you please take care of Huanhuan for me?” Chu Xiuhuang’s tone was quite formal, “Call me as soon as she wakes up, and I’ll come right back.”
Filled with guilt, Su Wanwan naturally did not hesitate, nodding eagerly, “Sure.”
Huo Jingshen: “…”
Chu Xiuhuang turned and walked out.
Nangong Ci hurried after him, “Second brother! Second brother, where are you going!”
Su Wanwan watched the two leave, dazed.
Turning back, she saw Huo Jingshen with a dark expression, “What is he going to do?”
“Maybe…” Su Wanwan thought, “He’s going to settle accounts with the Shi family.”
Huo Jingshen: “……”
