After almost drowning, Wen Xiuan awakens to bullet comments, discovering that she is actually in a novel!
Her savior, it turns out, is a scheming "phoenix man" (a man who rises from p...
"Huo Jue!"
Wen Xia Nuan hurried into his room. Seeing that the man had not put on his clothes yet, her face turned red and she turned and ran out the door.
Huo Jue quickly put his clothes on his head and walked out of the house. His eyes fell on Wen Xia Nuan: "What's wrong?"
Wen Xia Nuan looked up and glanced at him: "Your uncle is here and went straight to your grandma. It seems like something happened."
Huo Jue was silent for a moment, and Wen Xia Nuan urged him, "Don't just stand there like an idiot. Go over and take a look."
Her urging voice was heard, and Huo Jue nodded. Before he even reached the old lady's door, her angry curses were heard.
Huo Jue paused, his eyes falling on Wen Xia Nuan: "Wen Zhiqing, please stay here."
Wen Xia Nuan responded, and Huo Jue walked forward. The door creaked open, and Huo Zhiguo walked out with a gloomy face. His eyes fell on Huo Jue. His expression was cold, and he snorted and was about to leave.
"etc!"
Wen Xia Nuan blocked Huo Zhiguo's way and said, "Uncle Huo, it's a good opportunity for you to come back and talk to us."
Huo Zhiguo came here this time to ask his mother for some money for his son's wedding, but he didn't expect that he not only didn't get the money but was also stopped by Wen Xia Nuan.
He had a gloomy face and stared at Wen Xia Nuan with a heavy gaze: "Wen Zhiqing, what else do you want to say?"
Wen Xia Nuan's frank eyes fell on Huo Zhiguo: "Uncle Huo, you haven't forgotten what happened last time you came here, have you? Shouldn't you also pay grandma's alimony?"
Huo Zhiguo had been speaking in a gentle manner, but when he heard Wen Xia Nuan mention alimony, his face darkened and his gaze fell on her: "Wen Xia Nuan, don't refuse a toast and then drink a forfeit! What does our Wen family's affairs have to do with you?"
Wen Xia Nuan landed on Huo Jue, who was not far away. Huo Jue walked out and said, "Uncle, Wen Zhiqing is right."
"Huo Jue!"
Huo Zhiguo's eyes fell on Huo Jue. Hearing what he heard, his expression fell on Huo Jue: "Where can I get the money? I haven't even settled on the betrothal gift for your cousin!"
He was breathing heavily. Huo Jue's eyes fell on Huo Zhiguo and he chuckled when he heard this: "So, you came here to ask grandma for money?"
Huo Jue knew the old lady's financial situation, and Huo Zhiguo still had the audacity to ask the grandmother for money. Wasn't he pushing her to death?
Huo Zhiguo, however, didn't think he was wrong at all: "Huo Jue, your cousin wants to get married, is it wrong for her, as his grandmother, to pay a little money? Then our Huo family must have roots left, right? You can't do that, and you won't allow your brother to get married?"
"Uncle, I respect you so I call you Uncle, but if you come to Grandma and force her to give you money, I won't tolerate it!"
Huo Zhiguo was furious at being taught a lesson by a junior in front of outsiders. His eyes fell on Huo Jue. He stretched out his hand to hit Huo Jue, but Huo Jue dodged at this moment.
Huo Zhiguo's expression trembled, and he reached out to grab him again. The moment Huo Jue saw Huo Zhiguo's hand stretched out, he reached out and twisted his hand to press it on his back.
Huo Zhiguo frowned in pain, and Huo Jue stared at him gravely: "Huo Zhiguo, that's enough!"
Huo Jue struggled, and Huo Zhiguo stared at him angrily: "You, you let me go!"
Huo Zhiguo struggled, Wen Xianuan's eyes fell on him, the emotions in her eyes were incomprehensible.
"Xiaobo, don't struggle now."
Wen Xia Nuan approached him step by step, her eyes fell on Huo Zhiguo's ear, and she whispered softly: "Do you really think we don't know where you buried the old things that were taken away in the past?"
Huo Zhiguo's struggling body trembled, and his eyes fell on Wen Xianuan. He opened his mouth, and the emotions in his eyes were clearly visible.
Wen Xia Nuan's eyes were half-smiling, but there was a hint of coldness in them: "Uncle, you should think about this carefully."
Huo Jue also let him go at this moment. Huo Zhiguo's face turned pale with anger. Looking at Wen Xia Nuan, he also looked at Huo Jue: "Why are you telling Wen Xia Nuan everything now?"
Huo Jue was completely bewildered. Wen Xia Nuan's half-smiley gaze fell on Huo Zhiguo. Huo Zhiguo stared at him with gritted teeth. Wen Xia Nuan took a deep breath and said, "Uncle, you can discuss the alimony for grandma with your wife."
"Of course, if the discussion doesn't work out, some things will have to see the light of day!"
Huo Zhiguo paused as he turned to leave, his eyes landing on Wen Xia Nuan. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, since Wen Zhiqing has said so, I'll naturally think about it carefully when I get back!"
The door to the courtyard slammed shut with a deafening bang. Huo Jue frowned, his eyes fixed on Wen Xia Nuan. "What's wrong with him?"
Wen Xia Nuan thought about what she had said and decided not to hide anything else.
Huo Jue laughed when he heard what Wen Xia Nuan said. "No wonder Huo Zhiguo is upset when you say that."
Wen Xia Nuan snorted softly: "He dare not not make trouble."
Huo Jueluo didn't take her words to heart at all, and Wen Xia Nuan was also very curious: "Huo Jue, don't you want to take it back at all?"
Huo Jue's questioning gaze fell on Wen Xia Nuan. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Is it necessary?"
Wen Xia Nuan was stunned. Huo Jue lowered his eyes, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
"What's the point of me bringing those things?"
Huo Jue knew that possessing a treasure would bring one a crime, and he had suffered greatly from it. If he still dared to think about it now, it would be tantamount to asking for trouble.
Wen Xia Nuan's eyes fell on him. She could feel that Huo Jue was now filled with sadness all over his body.
She thought that Huo Jue must have thought about the previous events, which was why he had such emotions.
Wen Xia Nuan felt sorry for Huo Jue and thought he was smart now, but she felt unwilling to leave these things to Huo Zhiguo.
Her eyes fell on him, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "Can I take it?"
Huo Jue looked at Wen Xia Nuan in surprise. Wen Xia Nuan curled her lips and said, "I think it's better for me to keep it for you than to give it to him. Then, no matter what Huo Zhiguo does, he won't dare to do anything to me."
Huo Jue took her suggestion into his ears. Seeing Wen Xia Nuan's serious expression, Huo Jue thought for a moment and said, "Okay."
Wen Xia Nuan was startled and looked at Huo Jue in surprise: "Really?"
Huo Jue nodded and looked at Wen Xia Nuan: "I'm serious."
Wen Xia Nuan's eyes were filled with smiles as she reached out and patted his shoulder: "Huo Jue, with your temper, you'll succeed in everything you do!"
