The driver said, "No, we met her accidentally. It was the square where we went to find her last time when my wife disappeared. Xu Yunhe found her before us."
"It seems they happened by chance."
Huo Shaoting said in an extremely calm tone.
The driver did not dare to reply, but after Huo Shaoting said this casually, he turned around and entered the hall.
After Qiqi arrived upstairs, she felt a bit gloomy inexplicably. She didn't know where this feeling came from. She only felt that the actions of the servants when they threw the photo were extremely cold, including when Huo Shaoting saw it. He had the same indifferent reaction when he took photos of his younger sister Huo Yun.
Just as she was sitting on the sofa, motionless, Huo Shaoting walked in from the bedroom door.
Huo Shaoting stood at the door and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
After Qiqi heard the sound, she immediately looked towards the bedroom door. The moment she looked over, her eyes met Huo Shaoting's. Her first reaction was: "It's nothing, I'm just a little tired."
Huo Shaoting walked up to her: "Is it because of Huo Yun's photo?"
Qiqi immediately denied: "No."
Huo Shaoting added: "Huo Yun will be born in the next few days. If you feel scared, go back to Tan Palace to stay for a few days."
Qiqi asked: "Brother Shao Ting, why did you throw away the photo? Isn't that the photo of your sister...?"
When it came to this matter, Huo Shaoting didn't show much emotion on his face. He just said: "When a person dies, things naturally have to be thrown away. If they are left here, they are just taking up space."
When Qiqi heard this, her pupils tightened, and she couldn't believe that these words came out of his mouth.
Huo Shaoting looked at her face and did not continue. He just walked to her side, picked up the blanket on the sofa and gently wrapped her body: "Are you scared by the photo just now?"
His silent eyes were now filled with a bit of softness and worry.
Qiqi distanced herself from him: "No, Brother Shao Ting."
Huo Shaoting looked at her lightly.
Qiqi sat not far from him, quietly lowering her head.
She didn't know how he would react, her heart was beating slowly, and she didn't even raise her head to look at the face of the man in front of her.
Just when she felt that her breathing was not smooth, Huo Shaoting stopped approaching her, tolerated her behavior just now, and only said: "If you are tired, take a rest."
Qiqi still kept a certain distance and whispered: "Well, okay, Brother Shao Ting."
…
Huo Shaoting didn't have much time to communicate with her in those days, because Huo Yun would be born in two days.
The Huo family did not do much to deal with Huo Yun's death. They only sent a few servants to the mountain to pay homage to Huo Yun in a very simple way. Qiqi found that there was no sadness in the Huo family this day, which was normal. of living.
The day after Huo Yun's death, Qiqi received a text message from Xu Yunhe. He said in the text message: "Qiqi, let's go see the maple trees together."
It was in the morning when Qiqi saw this text message. bijinglou
Huo Shaoting was washing up in the bathroom, while Qiqi was still sitting on the bed.
She held the phone and wondered in her heart, how could Xu Yunhe have her new number.
She didn't want to understand this and looked at it for a long time with her phone.
After hearing the movement in the bathroom, she immediately put her phone away and looked towards the bathroom door.
Huo Shaoting came out after washing up. Seeing her still sitting on the bed, he asked, "Should the servant bring breakfast?"
Qiqi thought for a while and said slowly: "Brother Shao Ting, I can just go downstairs by myself."
He didn't say much: "Okay."
After that, he went to the cloakroom again.
Qiqi's hand holding the phone was shaking.
Huo Shaoting came out again. This time he had changed his clothes, including a shirt and a suit, but his tie was still on. After he sat down by the bed, he said to Qiqi in a low voice: "Do you know why the Huo family treats Huo Yun so much?" Is it so simple to celebrate a death anniversary?”
Qiqi didn't know why he suddenly mentioned this matter.
Huo Shaoting spoke again: "Because someone who commits suicide for love is not worthy of being a member of the Huo family. She chose her own path and no one forced her, so she has to bear the consequences of her death. In other words, the daughter of the Huo family He who died because of a man is not worthy of being missed or remembered."
After a few seconds, he looked at her and asked, "You know who the man I'm talking about is, right?"
"Xu, Xu Yunhe."
"right."
"How did you die...?"
"Jumped off the building and committed suicide in front of Xu Yunhe."
Qiqi's hair stood on end and her body tightened.
"Jumped off the 23rd floor, his flesh and blood were bloody. When the body was collected on the spot, even the bones were falling apart."
When Huo Shaoting said all this, he seemed to be describing an extremely ordinary thing, and his tone was not even pity.
Qiqi was frightened, and a layer of dense sweat broke out on her back.
Huo Shaoting looked at her face with a slight smile on his face: "Are you scared?"
Why did she commit suicide?
Qiqi didn't dare to ask this. Some time ago, she heard people from the Huo family talking about it. Xu Yunhe and Huo Yun seemed to have been engaged, and the Huo family and the Xu family were married.
After a long pause, she just shook her head and said, "No, no."
Huo Shaoting put his hand on her head: "Did I tell you to stay away from Xu Yunhe?"
Qiqi's heart reached her throat, and she whispered: "Well..."
He only pointed out everything here, and said in a low voice: "Yeah."
Then, he got up from the bed, picked up the tie from the sofa and tied it on his collar, and then said to her: "You can rest for a while."
After saying that, the man walked out of the bedroom.
Qiqi's body was still trembling slightly, and the words "bloody and bloody" kept flashing back and forth in her mind.
After Huo Shaoting got downstairs, she received a call from Li Nai. She said on the phone: "Shao Ting, I'm sorry. It was my problem last time."
After the last quarrel between the two, they have not reconciled yet and are always in a cold war.
Li Nai added: "Shao Ting, I want to apologize to Qiqi. Why can't she get through on the phone? Did she change her number?"
After Huo Shaoting heard Li Nai's words, his hand on the collar stopped. After a long time, he replied: "Last time I heard that it was broken, so there is no need to apologize. She is your sister. Whether she goes back or not is up to your Li family." It’s up to you to handle the matter.”
When he said this, he paused for a while, and then asked again: "The child has become more stable recently. Have your parents talked to Qiqi about returning to Li's house for a short stay?"
Huo Shaoting seemed to be letting the Li family make a choice.
After listening to his words, Li Nai immediately said: "Qiqi should be raised in the Huo family. The most important thing is that the child is born safely."
She was quite sincere this time.
Huo Shaoting guessed that she would make such a choice, and he hummed flatly.
