Chapter 866: Shi Xu Backed Her Up

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Rather than caring about Ning Yu, she might as well care about Shi Xu.

“How’s Brother doing?” Shi Xi asked.

Father Shi’s head started to hurt again. “I’m not sure yet. He didn’t pick up my call just now.”

One by one.

None of them didn’t let him worry!

Shi Xi consoled him. “Brother is a reliable person. He must have his own plans.

Maybe he just wants to support Tao Tao.”

The attitude of the Jun family in the private room just now was really not good.

“I hope so.” Father Shi pulled a long face.

Shi Xu had said that he wanted to marry Tao Yuxuan and help the Tao family out of the doldrums, so he walked over to Tao Yuxuan. “I’ll send you back.”

Tao Yuxuan smiled sweetly. “Alright, you can stay at my place today.”

As she spoke, Tao Yuxuan even deliberately held his arm and left Qingshui Restaurant with her head held high.

Coming out of Qingshui Restaurant, Tao Yuxuan loosened her grip on Shi Xu and said, “Thank you for helping me out.”

If it wasn’t for Shi Xu, she would have been so angry with Madam Jun that she couldn’t sleep.

Shi Xu’s car was waiting at the entrance. He opened the door and said to Tao

Yuxuan, “Get in the car.”

Tao Yuxuan quickly waved her hand. “No need, no need. We can go back on our own.”

Father Tao looked at Shi Xu and tried to get close to him. “Shi Xu, you said you wanted to marry Tao Tao just now…”

“Dad, Shi Xu was just to helping us out. How can it be true?” Tao Yuxuan pushed her father onto the Tao family’s car and said, “Go home, go home!”

Father Tao was pushed into the car, but he still wanted to struggle. “Shi Xu said he would help us, you child!”

“Tao Tao. I’ll send you back,” Shi Xu called out to her.

Tao Yuxuan stood rooted to the ground, somewhat at a loss.

Father Tao pushed his daughter over and said, “I’m going to borrow money from a friend.”

After saying that, Father Tao closed the car door and let the driver drive.

Tao Yuxuan:

Was there such a father?!

She slowly walked up to Shi Xu and glanced at him.

Shi Xu was still holding onto the car door, and his other hand was protecting the top of the door to prevent her from hitting her head when she got in.

Tao Yuxuan sat in the car, her face flushed and her heart pounding.

When Shi Xu got into the car, Tao Yuxuan told herself that this was all fake!

It was Shi Xu who was backing her up!

“Um, thank you.” Tao Yuxuan thanked him once again. Then, she thought of something and said, “Will the Jun family hate you for helping me like this?”

At the thought of this, Tao Yuxuan felt a rare sense of guilt.

“Don’t worry. This is Feng City. The Jun family can’t do anything,” Shi Xu consoled.

Tao Yuxuan heaved a sigh of relief.

She leaned back in her chair and looked out the window in a daze.

If the marriage alliance with the Jun family failed, the Tao family’s factory would probably really have to close down.

As the car drove, Tao Yuxuan realized that the route was wrong and said, “This is not the way home.”

Shi Xu was slightly surprised. “I asked you if you were hungry and suggested that 1 take you out to eat something, and you nodded.”

Tao Yuxuan was confused. “Ah? Perhaps I was distracted just now and didn’t hear it clearly.”

“Do you want to eat something?” Shi Xu asked again like a gentleman.

Tao Yuxuan actually did not have much of an appetite, but she had not eaten much in the private room just now, so she nodded. “Go ahead.”

Shi Xu probably hadn’t eaten yet.

When it was midsummer, Tao Yuxuan was immediately hungry when she saw the food being served.

The food at Qingshui Restaurant was naturally good, but they had been discussing it all along. How could they have the time to eat?

Tao Yuxuan buried her head in her food, turning her grief into appetite.

Shi Xu looked at Tao Yuxuan, his eyes darkening.

The two of them tacitly didn’t speak.

The phone rang..
