Chapter 164 - Liu Yan Returned Home
“Actually, Duo Duo …”
“Dingdong! Dingdong!”
Suddenly, the phone ringing interrupted Xia Luobing’s words. Huo Yunqi frowned and took out her phone. It was Xia Luoxin’s phone. Because the two of them were standing very tightly, she also saw the name of the call clearly and her heart suddenly twitched.
Huo Yunqi looked at Xia Luobing, hesitated for a moment, then picked up the phone and said in a low voice, “What is it?”
“Qi You, Auntie and Yunxi are back. Hurry up and drive over! We’ve already arrived at the old mansion.”
Huo Yunqi was surprised, “Why didn’t you notify me in advance?”
“Aiya, didn’t everyone want to give you a surprise?” Huo Yunxi said coquettishly, “Hurry up and come over. Alright, let’s not talk anymore. I’m going to accompany Auntie.”
If possible, Xia Luobing would rather not stand so close to Huo Yunqi, so that he would not hear Yunqi’s words so clearly, nor would he discover that he would be sad
“What did you just say about Duo Duo?” Yunqi hung up the phone and looked at Xia Luobing.
Xia Luobing shook her head and said, “Go ahead and ask the driver to take me and the three children home.”
Duo Duo had already brought two children called Hao Hao and Yu Yu over. Xia Luobing smiled at her daughter, but her fingers were tightly clenched.
Missing is missing. Besides, Charlotte is currently dating Huo Yunqi. What does she mean by interfering in the middle?
Huo Yunqi saw a flash of disappointment in Xia Luobing’s eyes. When she shook her head and tried to distinguish it carefully, she discovered that she still had an indifferent expression. She immediately ridiculed her lips. Why was Xia Luobing disappointed because of him? He really thought too much!
“I’m leaving.” Yunqi glanced at Xia Luobing and turned to leave.
Seeing Huo Yunqi slowly walk away, Xia Luobing felt an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart, as if she was about to lose something important.
“Mommy, can we go home now?” Duo Duo held the hands of the two children and ran to Xia Luobing with a bright smile. Then, she looked at the direction behind Xia Luobing and blinked her eyes. “Where’s Daddy?”
Xia Luobing reached out and touched the little girl’s head. “Let’s go home first.”
Huo Yunxi drove to the Huo Clan’s old mansion and saw that Xia Luoxin had said something that made Liu Yan smile. Huo Yunxi carried the child down the stairs and saw Huo Yunqi. His eyes flashed, “Big brother, you’re back.”
Two years ago, Huo Yunxi and Ye Shaochen held a wedding ceremony in the United States. Now that their son is one year old, it is time to pester him.
Huo Yunqi nodded and said to Liu Yan, “Why did you suddenly come back?”
Liu Yan looked at her son reproachfully, “What’s the problem with me returning to my own home? Besides, why would you leave me there alone if you both came back?”
” Yunqi, it’s good that Auntie is back. It’s convenient for us to take care of her.” Charlotte smiled sweetly as she held Liu Yan’s arm and acted coquettishly, “Auntie must teach me what I can’t do in the future!”
Hearing this, Liu Yan was satisfied. She was also Xia Yan’s daughter. This Xia Luoxin was a hundred times stronger than Xia Luo Bing’s. Not to mention that her son had left City A with nothing, but Xia Luo Xin had come all the way to find them. She also hoped that Xia Luo Xin would marry the Huo family.
Huo Yunqi glanced at the two of them indifferently and sat on the sofa without saying a word. He turned to look at Huo Yunxi and said, “Where is Ye Shaochen?”
“The QC brand’s new product launch is about to begin. He’s going to keep an eye on the scene.” Huo Yunxi smiled and hugged his son.
Huo Yunqi nodded. Looking at the baby in Huo Yunxi’s arms, he suddenly remembered Duo Duo. The corner of his mouth curved inexplicably, and the tense expression on his face unconsciously softened a lot.
“Big brother?” Huo Yunxi said with a surprised expression and smiled, “Why do I feel like you’re different from before?”
Ever since the Huo Corporation had fallen into Feng Shuo’s hands and their family had left the United States, Huo Yunqi had fallen into a state of insane work. Moreover, he was getting colder and colder. Sometimes, Huo Yunxi didn’t even dare to look into his eyes, fearing that he would freeze stiff from the cold air if he wasn’t careful.
Xia Luoxin, who was discussing lunch with Liu Yan, had been paying attention to Huo Yunqi’s situation. Hearing Huo Yunxi’s words, her heart thumped and she had a bad feeling.
If she hadn’t noticed it before, but after Huo Yunxi’s reminder, she realized that Huo Yunqi’s condition … seemed to be much brighter than before
Xia Luoxin narrowed her eyes and had her own thoughts in her heart. She hoped that she had thought too much about it, but in order to prevent her from getting into trouble, it was better to do some things ahead of time.
After lunch, because Huo Yunqi was going to the company, there was no point in Xia Luoxin staying. He also found a reason to leave the Huo family and sat in her car. The gentle smile on Xia Luoxin’s face instantly disappeared without a trace.
Charlotte pursed her lips, took out her phone and dialed, “Charlotte, let’s talk.”
After hanging up the phone, Xia Luoxin turned the car around and headed in the direction of the cafe with a sinister expression. His lips were tightly pursed, and her body emitted intense irritation and uneasiness.
When she arrived at the cafe, Charlotte chose a secluded corner. She stared in the direction of the entrance of the cafe. When she saw Charlotte’s figure, she raised her hand to signal.
“Why are you looking for me?” Xia Luobing sat down and said straightforwardly.
Charlotte pursed her lips and suddenly smiled, “We’re sisters. Even if there’s nothing else, we can go out for coffee. What do you think?”
“Tell me directly.” Charlotte looked impatient.
When she went out, she entrusted her three children to her family’s part-time aunt. She was really worried.
Charlotte nodded her head and looked into Charlotte’s eyes with an unconvinced expression. She thought that she was prettier than Charlotte and had accompanied Huo Yunqi for four years, but why was there still a strong sense of unease in her heart when facing Charlotte
It felt like no matter how hard she tried, as long as Xia Luobing gently poked her finger, she would once again be thrown into the abyss of despair.
“I will marry Huo Yunqi.” Charlotte looked into Charlotte’s eyes and said word by word, her eyes even more unblinking, as if she was afraid that she would miss the expression on her face.
Xia Luobing was stunned for a moment, then smiled faintly, “Congratulations.”
“I am very happy to hear my sister’s blessing.” Xia Luoxin stared at Xia Luobing and smiled. He stirred the coffee with the silver spoon and continued, “So I don’t think sister will do anything to ruin our sisters’ relationship, will she?”
If it was just a euphemistic probing before, then it would be a straightforward pointing out now.
Xia Luobing was stunned, his heart filled with displeasure, and his tone became very bad. “If you are confident in this relationship, why would you tell me that? Besides, Yunqi and I have been divorced for four years.”
“It’s good that big sister remembers you. You’ve been divorced for four years. Also, big sister must remember the circumstances under which you divorced.” Xia Luoxin smiled and said, “Four years ago, you helped Feng Shuo cheat him out of everything. He left the United States in a car accident with serious injuries. So, my good sister, you must not forget.”
Every time Charlotte said that, her heart ached a little more, because all of this was true. She had hurt him so cruelly and heartlessly
“I’ve been by Yunqi ‘s side all these years, accompanying him to make a comeback, so we’re getting married. I hope sister doesn’t provoke anything to hurt him again.” Charlotte put down the coffee cup in her hand and looked into Xia Luobing ‘s eyes. “From now on, the woman next to him can only be me!”
Xia Luobing did not know that she had walked out of the cafe. She remembered what had happened four years ago. The Huo Clan had suffered heavy injuries and Huo Yunqi had left the United States with nothing
Xia Luoxin was right. She was the one who caused all of this, so she didn’t even have the qualifications to make up for it when they met today.
The originally clear sky started to rain at some unknown time. Drops of rain fell on his face and body. His heart was also wet, and the world became blurry in his eyes.
“Bing Bing, what’s wrong with you?”
A familiar voice drifted into his ears. At the same time, a black umbrella covered his head. Xia Luobing turned around and saw Feng Shuo. He was stunned for a moment and said coldly, “Why are you here?”
“I just happened to drive by. Looks like your mental state isn’t very good.” Feng Shuo said affectionately, “I’ll send you back.”
Xia Luobing took a step back on guard and frowned unhappily, “I drove over. There’s no need to trouble you.”
The current Feng Corporation was the Huo Corporation of the past, and the Feng Shuo in front of her was the person who had cheated her out of five percent of her shares
She hated Feng Shuo, but she hated herself even more.
If it wasn’t for her, the Huo Clan wouldn’t have fallen to this state.
Feeling Xia Luobing’s resistance, Feng Shuo was stunned for a moment, but he still smiled, “Bing Bing, what’s wrong with you?”
“It has nothing to do with you!”
After saying that, Charlotte turned around with a cold face and left. She got into her car under Feng Shuo’s gaze. She saw Feng Shuo who was still parked in the distance through the rearview mirror, and her expression darkened a little.
When Xia Luobing returned to Yunqi’s villa wet, Duo Duo was already asleep on the sofa. Looking at her quiet daughter, Xia Luobing’s heart softened. “Duo Duo, do you blame Mommy?”
She did something wrong, causing Duo Duo to be able to recognize Huo Yunqi even if she was with him day and night. As a mommy, she really failed her duty.
“Mommy, you’re back?” Duo Duo suddenly opened her eyes and stared blankly at Xia Luobing’s hand. She said softly, “Hao Hao and Yu Yu were taken away by their mommy.”
Charlotte lowered her head and kissed her daughter’s cheek. “Sorry, Mommy just came back,” she whispered.
“Mommy, hug me.” Duo Duo stretched out her hand and winked at Xia Luobing.
Xia Luobing looked down at the wet clothes on her body and pressed her daughter’s hand to comfort her, “Mommy’s clothes are wet. You can’t carry Duoduo.”
Duo Duo blinked her eyes and suddenly asked, “Is Uncle Huo really Duo Duo’s daddy?”
“What do you think, Duo Duo?” Xia Luobing hesitated for a moment and whispered.
Xia Luoxin was right. The defeat of the Huo Clan was directly related to her. Now that Huo Yunqi had returned, how could she let him know Duo Duo’s background
“I like Uncle Huo. I … want him to be my daddy.” Duo Duo lowered her head and twisted her fingers, looking helpless and nervous. “Mommy, do you think Uncle Huo will agree?”
Xia Luobing’s heart ached, but she still maintained the smile on her face and whispered, “Uncle Huo likes flowers very much.”
