Chapter 39 This Child is Born Stupid

Huo Jingchuan grabbed the furious Huo Jingye.

"Let Chacha finish what she has to say first."

This little girl had to wait until she was injured before she went home to ask for help!

Huo Jingchuan wanted to teach Jiang Cha a lesson, but when he saw her injured, he felt so distressed.

Such a delicate little girl, they couldn't wait to love her, why did she have to suffer so much at the hands of that bastard?

"Cha Cha, please continue." Huo Tingkun's face darkened visibly.

"I have no grudge against him. As soon as I joined the art troupe, he repeatedly and maliciously targeted me. I really don't understand why."

If you say you don’t know, you’re just pretending.

Bai Shuyao's father is an extraordinary person to Uncle Huo. If she directly accuses Bai Shuyao of involvement in this matter and she cannot produce any evidence, she is not sure whether Uncle Huo will believe her.

She could only offer some suggestions to guide them to investigate in this direction.

"I will investigate this matter thoroughly and will not let you suffer such injustice in vain."

The guilt on Huo Tingkun's face was not fake. Huo Jingchuan sat next to Jiang Cha, staring at her profile seriously.

Beneath the long eyelashes, there was a cunning light in the dark eyes.

This little girl is really, although she is young, she has a lot of ideas.

He is always good at fooling people.

Even Lao Huo is no exception.

"Dad, can't I sneak into the interrogation room in the middle of the night and beat up that bastard Chi Jun first?"

Huo Jingye raised his fist as big as a casserole, with fire blazing in his eyes.

Huo Tingkun got a headache after hearing this.

"Is the army a place where you can mess around? From now on, stop hanging out with those ragtag bunch of idiots at the steel mill. Look at you, what have you learned out there?"

"What does this have to do with them? I want to beat up Chi Jun because he bullied Cha Cha."

Huo Jingye angrily picked up a piece of potato and stuffed it into his mouth.

Huo Jingchuan scooped up a meatball with a spoon and brought it to Jiang Cha's mouth. "Do you want to beat Chi Jun up yourself?"

Jiang Cha opened her eyes wide in shock and subconsciously looked at Huo Tingkun.

Surprisingly, Huo Tingkun didn't react much, as if he didn't hear these words at all.

Huo Jingye chewed the potatoes harder and harder.

He said, Master Huo is partial to Huo Jingchuan, right?

If he said the same thing, he would be scolded, but if Huo Jingchuan said it, he would agree.

He narrowed his eyes.

Jiang Cha suddenly became bolder.

"Is it okay?" She was inexplicably excited.

"sure."

Jiang Cha took a gulp and put the ball in the spoon into his mouth. His eyes, like black grapes, became brighter.

Huo Jingye also came over.

"Can I join?"

Huo Tingkun slammed his chopsticks on the table, and Jiang Cha and Huo Jingye were startled.

Huo Jingchuan didn't even glance at Huo Tingkun. He patiently scooped a spoonful of rice and waited for the next sip of ginger tea.

Ye Surong thought Huo Tingkun was going to lose his temper with the children, and when she was about to say something to smooth things over, Huo Tingkun actually held her hand.

"I'm full, come with me for a walk!"

"ah?"

Ye Surong paused for a second before reacting, "Okay, let's go for a walk."

Jiang Cha and Huo Jingye looked at each other, then turned their gazes to Huo Jingchuan.

"No, why? Why did Old Huo stop objecting the moment you asked?"

As soon as Huo Tingkun left, Huo Jingye showed his dissatisfaction on his face.

Huo Jingchuan raised his hand and poked Jiang Cha's bulging cheek.

"chew."

Jiang Cha obediently began to chew the meatball in his mouth.

After that, Huo Jingchuan raised his head coldly and asked, "Do you know where he is being held?"

Huo Jingye: “…”

"Do you know the patrol shift change times?"

“!”

Huo Jingye heard a strong sense of sarcasm in Huo Jingchuan's calm tone.

"Do you really think the army is the Third Steel Plant and you can come and go as you please?"

"Huo Jingchuan, I want to challenge you in a duel!"

Huo Jingchuan didn't take Huo Jingye seriously at all.

Jiang Cha was about to speak when a spoonful of rice was put into her mouth. Her cheeks were puffed up, and her big eyes with distinct black and white looked at Huo Jingye and then at Huo Jingchuan, looking both cute and innocent.

Huo Jingchuan smiled suddenly.

Huo Jingye was even more furious.

"How dare you make fun of me? I'm going to break up with you!"

Huo Jingye howled at the top of his lungs, and Huo Jingchuan frowned helplessly.

"Are you going then?"

"……go!"

Ginger Tea: “!”

The look she gave Huo Jingye gradually turned into pity.

Is this child born so stupid?

The fact that he was able to grow up safely and not be kidnapped must be due to Huo Jingchuan's silent efforts behind the scenes, right?

Jiang Cha lifted Zongzi and held his forehead with his hand.

"Brother, I'm full!"

Jiang Cha blinked his eyes, his belly felt round and he really couldn't eat anymore.

Huo Jingchuan didn't make things difficult for her. He put the spoon into the bowl and said, "Then I'll let Aye push you out for a walk?"

"I don't want to go out."

She was covered in bandages and was pushed out of her house in a wheelchair. No one knew what was wrong with her.

"Then I'll push you back to your room to read?"

"good."

Huo Jingye finished the rice in his bowl in a few mouthfuls, and walked around the houses on both sides, thinking about what tool would be most effective in beating someone up.

He had completely forgotten about his previous words about wanting to duel with Huo Jingchuan.

Huo Jingchuan placed Jiang Cha in front of the desk in the study. "Which book do you want to read?"

"Second row, third book, human body position."

Huo Jingchuan took the book from the shelf as Jiang Cha requested and placed it in front of Jiang Cha.

There was a bookmark in the book. Huo Jingchuan turned to that page accurately, and Jiang Cha read it with great interest.

As she looked at it, she pondered the corresponding functions of the acupoints.

Huo Jingchuan pulled a chair over and sat next to her. She read a book and he looked at her.

Following Jiang Cha's gaze, Huo Jingchuan reached out and turned to the next page for Jiang Cha.

Jiang Cha was absorbed in her thoughts when Huo Jingchuan's action briefly pulled her soul away from the medical book.

She looked at Huo Jingchuan blankly.

"What's wrong? Keep watching!"

Ever since Jiang Cha entered the hospital, Huo Jingchuan's attitude towards her has changed.

I can’t tell you exactly what the difference is with ginger tea.

Because, apart from his harsh words, Huo Jingchuan has always been nice to her.

"Would you like some water?"

Jiang Cha blinked, "Brother, you should... not be angry with me anymore, right?"

Huo Jingchuan sat up straight, "Do you think I should be angry with you?"

He threw the question back to Jiang Cha.

That night, the disappointment in his eyes when he looked at her was like a steel needle piercing Jiang Cha's heart.

Jiang Cha thought about this question seriously, and Huo Jingchuan was waiting for her to speak.

He wanted to know what kind of life Jiang Cha had lived with Jiang Guodong and Jiang Cheng in the past.

"should!"

Jiang Cha's voice was a little muffled, "But I really didn't mean to hide this from you."

Her beautiful eyes were misty.

"I'm afraid you'll... think I'm troublesome!"

From childhood to adulthood, Jiang Cheng never took her with him no matter what he did. He just found her annoying.

"We are a family."

Huo Jingchuan gripped the armrest of the wheelchair and turned it around, forcing Jiang Cha to face him.

"If I thought you were troublesome, I would never have agreed to the marriage between Lao Huo and your mother from the beginning."

"I will try my best."

"What are you working hard for?"

“Try to adapt to this family!”

Huo Jingchuan was so angry that he tapped Jiang Cha on the forehead.

“Ouch, that hurts!”

Jiang Cha shrank back in pain.

"What does this family require you to adapt to?"

Huo Jingchuan asked this out of the blue. Jiang Cha opened her mouth but didn't know how to answer.

"This is your home. You have Old Huo, your mother, and my two brothers, Huo Jingye and I. We don't need you to adapt to us. If you want to work, you can go to work. If you don't want to work, the three grown men in our family can support you. You don't have to worry about anyone's attitude. Just do whatever you want. We are your support."

If a person is cautious when speaking to his closest relatives at home, what kind of home is this?

It had been a long time since Huo Jingchuan spoke so many words in one breath.

In the past, before Jiang Cha and Ye Surong came, the three grown men lived under the same roof, and sometimes they couldn't get together for several days.

Either Old Huo was on a mission or he was on a mission. Huo Jingye would live in the steel factory dormitory from time to time and come back once a week.

In a month, it was a luxury for the three of them to get together for a meal, let alone talk.

Huo Jingye's habit of being a chatterbox was caused by the fact that both he and Old Huo were less talkative than the other.

"Jiang Cha, I don't know what your definition of family is. In my opinion, home is always a person's safe haven. Now that you have an unbreakable safe haven, what else do you have to fear?"

It turned out that he saw her anxiety and fear.

No one has ever said such words to Jiang Cha in a sincere manner.

She does whatever she wants without having to worry about what anyone thinks.

They are her safe haven and her strength.

Jiang Cha knew that Uncle Huo was a good man worthy of her mother's lifelong trust, but she didn't expect that the two older brothers of the Huo family were also so good.

"Jiang Cha, tell me your concerns, okay?"

Jiang Cha didn't dare look directly into Huo Jingchuan's eyes. During dinner, she was even a little petty in front of Uncle Huo.

She was ashamed.

In fact, she doesn't like herself like this at all.

However, the feeling of trusting someone was too unfamiliar, and normal father-daughter and normal brother-sister relationships were also too unfamiliar to her.

"I still need some time to adjust my mentality."

She spoke these words in a muffled voice, as if she was afraid that Huo Jingchuan would get angry, and she stole a glance at him from time to time.

Huo Jingchuan raised his hand.

Jiang Cha subconsciously shrank her neck and closed her eyes, she thought he was going to hit her.

He dodged skillfully, but didn't dare to move too far away, which made him more certain of what Huo Jingchuan was thinking.

She must have been beaten often in the past, right?

Huo Jingchuan's palm fell on the top of Jiang Cha's head and gently rubbed her hair.

"As long as you are happy!"

Jiang Cha opened his eyes in surprise and met a pair of unspeakably gentle eyes.
