These words were like a revelation, igniting the deepest part of Nan Xi's heart.
When she gathered her emotions and prepared to go back, Nanzhi happened to come out. Angrily, she walked around Nan Xi and went to touch up her makeup in front of the mirror.
Nan Xi clenched her fists and held back for a long time, but finally couldn't hold it in any longer and turned back.
"I didn't expect that you would be willing to give birth to Huo Sijue's child."
These words sounded particularly weird, as if Nan Xi knew from the beginning that Nan Zhi was unhappy. Nanzhi fiddled with her lipstick and ignored her.
She also felt that this marriage was strange. A smart person like Huo Sijue would not do anything unimportant. From the beginning when he promised to introduce Nan Xi to a blind date, she felt strange.
After hearing what he said on the road. At this moment, Nanzhi felt that things were not simple.
Just now, she came out on purpose to test out Nan Xi's story.
"Having children is a matter of time. You also know why I married into the Huo family in the first place. Even if my relationship with him is no longer harmonious, the Huo family will eagerly hope that I will leave a seed."
Nanzhi turned around and leaned on the marble table in front of the mirror. The red lips she had just applied made her look gorgeous and perverse, and her whole person seemed to have an inaccessible beauty.
When she was in the Nan family, Nan Xi was always arrogant. She is better dressed than Nazhi, eats better than Nazhi, and even receives a much better education than Nazhi.
But now, just because she is Huo Sijue's woman, the status difference between them is huge. Not to mention anything else, at this moment, Nan Xi felt that he had lost a lot of energy.
"So what if I give birth?" Nan Xi sneered, "Isn't it Gu Mingxi who raised her?"
There was still a trace of luck left in her heart, and she wanted to use this to bully Nazhi. It's a pity that Nanzhi didn't take it to heart at all. Instead, he smiled expectantly.
"Who told you that my child would be raised by Gu Mingxi?"
Nanzhi smiled helplessly. She thought Nan Xi was stupid: "Even if Huo Sijue really likes Gu Mingxi, the old lady values this child so much that she will not fall into her hands. Besides -"
Nanzhi gave it a try, and it wasn't until Nan Xi's eyes became more and more urgent that she let go: "I have already moved into Jingyuan halfway up the mountain."
Nan Xi's pupils were slightly stunned, and she doubted her ears.
There were rumors in Kyoto in the early years that Huo Sijue spent a lot of money to decorate the wedding room for his future beloved wife. Nanzhi never moved in, and Nan Xi laughed at her about it more than once.
"Is it surprising?"
Nanzhi walked up to Nan Xi and stared at her eyes that were almost like his own. A terrible thought suddenly came to his mind.
But she didn't dare to think deeply. If that was the case, it would be incest!
She took a deep breath, "You all think Huo Sijue loves someone other than me, but what if..."
"Does he pretend to be me?"
In less than half a month, she watched Huo Sijue go crazy three times. Once he took her back to Kyoto, once he forced the Su family to get married, and once he searched her in the middle of the night.
If he said he didn't like it at all, Nanzhi himself wouldn't believe it.
She was just speculating whether Huo Sijue had a temporary interest in her, or whether he was taking advantage of her. How much sincerity there is is still unknown.
With all the past events, she no longer dared to surrender herself to this man easily, fearing that it would be like drawing water from a bamboo basket, and the reflection would be reflected in the mirror.
Nan Xi stared at her coldly and laughed sarcastically: "Stop being so sentimental. How many people can be sincere about a family matter like theirs?"
"Will you really leave you alone for three years?"
In just a few words, Nanzhi had already made a general decision in his mind.
Nan Xi and Huo Simian were probably married by family, but Huo Simian had bad legs and feet, so it was her turn.
But there are so many rich young men in Kyoto...
Why did Huo Sijue introduce Nan Xi to Huo Simian without even thinking about it? How did he learn that Nan Xi was Aunt Huo's favorite and thus add fuel to the flames?
Nanzhi was deep in thought, and her silence seemed almost acquiescence in Nan Xi's eyes.
Nan Xi smiled proudly and said, "If I marry Huo Simian, at least he will be easy to control."
"Can you take care of your man?"
After saying that, she was about to leave proudly. But the moment he came out of the bathroom, he was stunned.
Nan Xi clenched her hands in fear, her eyes gradually darkened, she didn't dare to raise her eyes, and she stood there uneasily.
"Si...Si Mian." Her voice was so low that it was almost inaudible.
In front of me, a man was sitting in a wheelchair. His eyes were so cold that they looked like they were stained with blood. He raised his lips and asked with a smile, "Who do you think is easy to control?"
"No, that's not what I meant." Nan Xi explained hurriedly.
Her heart jumped to her throat, and she was at a loss. "I, I mean, on our...our wedding night, I will take the initiative."
As soon as she finished speaking, Huo Simian laughed coldly.
Those eyes were fixed on Nan Xi's face, and she smiled sinisterly, "What are you taking the initiative for? You don't think I'm good at it, right?"
Huo Simian suppressed the last two words, and his pressure dropped to the extreme.
…
"Still not leaving?"
The slender high-heeled shoes followed slowly.
Nanzhi leaned lazily against the door and smiled when he saw it was Huo Simian, "My fiancée has only been out for a while, and you are already anxious?"
She joked, and with just one sentence she almost broke Nan Xi's deadlock.
Huo Simian's gloomy face finally softened, and he even smiled softly and brightly. Such an obvious change was more like a needle pricking Nan Xi's heart.
She clenched her fists and glared at Nanzhi.
"I've been watching my sister-in-law come out for a long time, and I was afraid that she wouldn't be well received, so I stopped by to see Xiao Xi."
What a nice way!
Nan Xi seemed to be feeling a storm in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it at all. It’s just that Huo Sijue prefers this woman, why does Huo Simian also...
"I had a good meal, so I'm going back first." Nanzhi looked back with a half-smile, "You should also go in earlier, don't let those elders worry."
"After all, if I can't give birth, the whole responsibility will be on you."
Nan Xi held back, gritting her teeth and smiling, "Thank you, sister, for caring."
"younger sister?"
Nanzhi laughed out loud, "I just wanted to remind you at the dinner table that Simian is Si Jue's younger brother, and he calls me sister-in-law. After you married into the Huo family, you were his wife, so naturally you should also call me sister-in-law. Sister-in-law."
Nanzhi emphasized the last two words and smiled lightly, "Sister, it's time to change your name."
Huo Simian watched, Nan Xi didn't dare to disobey.
Her face was red and she couldn't keep her face down for a long time. Nowadays, she is not as good as Nanzhi in every way. The title of elder and younger is the only thing she can use to suppress her, and now it is gone.
"Why, don't you want to?" Nanzhi had no intention of leaving yet.
"Sister-in-law...sister-in-law!" Nan Xi said with difficulty.
"It doesn't matter. You'll get used to it after calling him a few times." Nanzhi was in a good mood. She patted Huo Simian on the shoulder and said, "I'm going back first."
After the woman left, Huo Simian didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
He raised his hand and stroked the spot where Nanzhi had touched just now. He couldn't hide his smile until he noticed Nan Xi's gaze. When he raised his head again, he seemed to be a different person.
Huo Simian said coldly: "Have you seen enough?"
In comparison, Nan Xi is almost gaudy. In Huo Simian's heart, she is not as smart as Nazhi, nor as beautiful as Nazhi, nor as knowledgeable as Nazhi.
Their family doesn't need stupid people, but it's a pity that his wings are not full yet, so he has to find ways to take advantage of his situation.
Huo Simian's expression became gentler: "Go back."
Nan Xi carefully pushed the wheelchair back to the banquet hall.
At the dinner table, Nanzhi ate happily. Huo Sijue kept picking up food for her, and he couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw her eating.
"Does Aunt Li's cooking not suit your taste?"
He wanted to say last night that Nanzhi seemed to have lost some weight. The already slender arms and waist that were too full to hold seemed to have become smaller again.
She is so delicate that she really cannot give birth and is prone to dystocia.
Huo Sijue served Nanzhi another dish as if no one else was watching, arranged it delicately in a small bowl, and placed each one in front of Nanzhi.
Such banquets are almost all just for show, and everyone is just going through the motions. Only Nanzhi is really doing the work!
My cousin had just been scolded by Huo Sijue, and the others just looked at her and didn't dare to speak.
Even if he is speculating in his heart, he can still see that Huo Sijue is really interested in Nanzhi. Who would dare to be the first person at this time?
"Slow down. If you like the food, I will invite the cook here back." Huo Sijue wiped Nanzhi's mouth gently.
"I'm just hungry. It's not as good as what my mother made." Nanzhi said.
She couldn't eat in peace these days, either because she was worried that Leng Lie's whereabouts would be discovered, or she always felt like someone was watching her from behind.
She slept on Huo Sijue's bed and couldn't feel at ease in any way, let alone eat.
Suddenly such a large table is placed in front of you, which will inevitably make people's appetites whet their appetite. After drinking the last bowl of chicken soup, Nanzhi finally burped.
In the past, she was under the control of the Nan family, and due to Mrs. Huo's status, she never dared to be so unbridled. Now she doesn't care about anything and is eating happily.
Huo Sijue wiped the frangipani from Nanzhi's lips with his thumb and smiled softly and fondly: "Is it because I'm back that you are happy?"
That being said, it’s quite true!
Nanzhi didn't say anything, so he just took it as her acquiescence.
Huo Sijue took Nanzhi's hand and put it in his arms, "It doesn't matter, I still have a lot to eat."
He called the waiter and ordered the dishes that Nanzhi loved just now. Such obvious differential treatment made Nazhi blush.
"I'm really full!"
"It doesn't matter, just think that I'm replenishing my baby's body in advance."
? ? ?
Can this be done?
Nanzhi frowned beautifully and was speechless due to his magical brain circuit. Until the waiter served chicken soup, sweet and sour pork ribs, pineapple sweet potato, smelly mandarin fish... in front of all the elders...
Another small table of dishes...
Grandpa, who had been silent until now, smiled. He pointed at Huo Sijue and praised him, "What a good boy. You have the same style as I did to please your great-grandma."
"You are so kind to Nanzhi, I feel at ease."
He had heard rumors from the outside world, so he openly wanted to give Nanzhi one billion to support her. Even without Huo Sijue's love, she could still gain a foothold in the Huo family with her inheritance.
Now it seems that his old man is worried about everything for nothing.
