As if just to cooperate with the old lady's words, Qiqi looked at the things on the plate but did not move her chopsticks.
Huo Shaoting withdrew his hand after finishing picking up the vegetables.
The old lady and Sheng Yunxia were both watching this scene. Qiqi could only hold the chopsticks and eat what he gave her.
After Huo Shaoting saw her eating, he picked up the porridge under his hands and continued to eat.
There was silence at the dining table, no sound.
At this time, the old lady said again: "Don't go out during the day, right?"
Qiqi was eating and did not raise her head when listening to the old lady's words, but her ears were carefully waiting for Huo Shaoting's answer.
Huo Shaoting put down the spoon again, picked up the napkin on the table, wiped the corners of his lips and said, "There is something else."
When the old lady heard his answer, her anger reached the corner of her eyes, but after the corner of her eyes passed, she said again: "You have been busy for so many days, you must be busy enough, right?"
Huo Shaoting did not reply to the old lady's words.
Sheng Yunxia put down the chopsticks in her hands and said, "Why do you need to take care of her yourself? Since she is Qiqi's sister and she is also a relative, then our family can just send a caregiver to watch over her."
Qiqi's hand loosened her grip on the spoon for a few seconds, and she knew that the war seemed to be starting again.
After listening to Sheng Yunxia's words, Huo Shaoting put down the napkin in his hand and looked at Sheng Yunxia. In response to Sheng Yunxia's words, he leaned on his chair and said in a calm tone: "When did you have such leisure time?" Well, if you have this free time, why not take good care of my dad?"
When Huo Shaoting said this, he did not bring any sarcasm, and he was indeed very indifferent.
The tone was like saying that the weather today is not bad.
Sheng Yunxia looked at him and looked at him coldly. Huo Shaoting looked towards her.
After a long while, Sheng Yunxia laughed angrily: "Well, now it seems that I am indeed meddling in other people's business."
Huo Shaoting stood up from his chair and said, "I'm full, you can eat."
After saying that, the person left the table.
Qiqi didn't dare to be alone at all. She seemed to have touched something from this subtle conversation, and those things might be about Sheng Yunxia and Huo's father.
Since Qiqi came to the Sheng family, she rarely saw Huo's father at home. At first, Qiqi thought it was because Huo's father was busy at work, but no matter how busy he was at work, why was he away from home for so long?
Moreover, Qiqi found that the relationship between Sheng Yunxia and Huo Zhengkun was also very cold. The two couples did not communicate much. They seemed to be husband and wife, but there seemed to be a huge gap in their relationship. In addition, Huo Shaoting seemed to have no regard for the relationship between his parents. Not really concerned.
It was the first time Qiqi came into contact with a family like the Huo family, so she was a little confused about the reason for this subtle relationship.
She didn't dare to make a sound, so she had to put down the spoon in her hand and sit quietly aside, continuing to reduce her sense of existence in front of a transparent person.
After Huo Shaoting left, Sheng Yunxia stood up from the table and said to the old lady: "Mom, I'm full too, you can eat."
The old lady sighed: "Don't pay attention to Shao Ting's words."
She seemed to be comforting Sheng Yunxia.
Sheng Yunxia chuckled and said, "Why would I care about what my son says."
It doesn't matter, she will make him understand the consequences of going against her, even if this person is her son.
Sheng Yunxia left the table.
The old lady's face was filled with infinite sadness.
She said to Qiqi: "Eat."
Qiqi didn't dare to look around, she only dared to lower her head and continue eating the food on the plate.
This morning's breakfast seemed to have ended in a hurry.
Qiqi returned to her room after morning, and Huo Shaoting also returned to the bedroom not long after.
Qiqi's whole body tensed up in the room, and she looked back at him from her wheelchair.
Huo Shaoting walked in and saw her sitting in a wheelchair. No one around him asked: "Where is the servant?"
The servant happened to come in at this time. Hearing his words, he immediately responded: "Sir, I went to get an ice pack to give my wife an ice pack."
After hearing this, Huo Shaoting said yes and went to change clothes and go out.
Qiqi, who was sitting in a wheelchair, said, "Brother Shao Ting, I want to go with you to see my sister."
When Huo Shaoting heard her words, his eyes stopped on her.
Qiqi's hands on her knees were clasped tightly, and after a long while, she added, "I'm a little worried about her."
"You don't have to go, just stay at Huo's house."
He rejected her words directly without giving her any room for negotiation.
Qiqi's hands shook, but she still said: "I just want to explain to my sister..."
She didn't know why her sister fainted at the door of the examination room that day, but she vaguely knew that it must have something to do with her. During this time, she rolled over and turned around, and she was actually feeling uneasy all the time.
Regarding her words, Huo Shaoting still said: "She doesn't want to see you, and you'd better not appear in front of her during this period."
A thunderous sound came from Qiqi's heart. She raised her face and looked at him, somewhat confused by the meaning of his words.
After Huo Shaoting said this, he looked away from her coldly, turned around and left, and continued walking forward.
After about four or five minutes, Huo Shaoting changed his clothes and came out.
The servant stood there without moving, and Qiqi did not move in her wheelchair.
Huo Shaoting left without saying hello to her.
The servant standing there immediately looked at Qiqi.
Qiqi blinked her eyes, and she felt a sourness rushing straight into her nose.
Is he not letting her go to see her sister because he is afraid that her appearance will irritate her again?
But she didn't do anything.
Qiqi was a little confused. She sat there for a long time without reacting, and her face was even more dazed, but there was a bit of sourness in the daze, and she looked like she wanted to cry.
The servant immediately came to her side and asked, "Madam, are you okay?"
However, Qiqi's face remained expressionless. She quietly grasped the other hand with one hand. For a long time, two words stuck in her throat: "It's okay."
But the servant heard a hint of choking and trembling in her voice.
After Huo Shaoting walked downstairs, he stopped for a few seconds. He stood there wondering what he was thinking. The secretary was waiting outside. She had just received some changes of clothes from Li Nai from the Li family, but Soon, the secretary walked in and called: "Mr. Huo."
Huo Shaoting's frown gradually relaxed, and his face became extremely cold.
He continued to move forward.
The secretary didn't know why he stood there and didn't move just now. When he saw others walking towards the door, the secretary immediately followed.
After Qiqi heard the sound of the car leaving downstairs, she said to the servant: "No need to wipe it for me. I'm fine. You can go out."
Her voice was so low that no one could hear her.
The servant looked at her pale face and did not dare to say anything more, so he left the room.
