"I originally planned to wait until she turned 18 and then tell my parents about my relationship with her, but later our family was framed and sent down to the countryside. My parents were afraid of getting them into trouble, so they gave them some money and let them leave first."

"Xiao Shuang originally wanted to go with me, but she still has her mother, and I couldn't let her suffer with me, so I said some... words to her." When Huo Xinyuan said this, his tone was full of regret.

"I shouldn't have done this. I thought if I left her in Beijing, with the money mom gave them, they would live a good life. But who would have known that her dad found them, and not only did he gamble away all the money mom left them, he even lost... Xiaoshuang..." Huo Xinyuan gritted his teeth.

"Then why didn't you bring the person here?" Su Miaomiao frowned.

"Xiao Shuang doesn't want to go with me."

Su Miaomiao was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "She's afraid of getting you into trouble?"

"It should be 㱕." Huo Xinyuan nodded.

"But she is afraid of bringing trouble to you. As long as you are not afraid, what does it matter? We can take her and her mother to Shimatou Village. The living conditions in the village are good now, and we will not let them suffer." Su Miaomiao said firmly.

Huo Xinyuan opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.

"Are you hiding something from me?" Su Miaomiao squinted at him.

"It's not that I'm hiding it from you. You just know that our family was originally sent down from Beijing, and the mastermind behind the incident is still sitting firmly in a high position. Now everyone in the family is planning to return to Beijing. If I get into trouble at this critical juncture, I'm afraid our family will never be able to return to the city." Huo Xinyuan remembered what Tang Chunlan had told him before they left.

"If we can't go back, then we can't go back. It's fine for us to stay in Shimatou Village." Su Miaomiao didn't care.

"How can that be possible? How can you let everyone be implicated because of one person's trouble?" Huo Xinyuan refused.

"This is not called being implicated, this is called taking responsibility. What's more, things may not be as serious as you think. Let's be careful so that others won't find out." Su Miaomiao coaxed.

"No! This is too dangerous. I can't let you take risks with me." Huo Xinyuan remained unshakable.

"Then are you willing to let Xiaoshuang marry someone else? Besides, with her father's character, I guess the partner he finds for her won't be a good person either." Su Miaomiao dragged out the last part of her voice.

As expected, Huo Xinyuan's expression changed instantly.

Look, you still can’t let it go.

"Do you know when Xiaoshuang will get married?" Su Miaomiao asked again.

"Three days later." Huo Xinyuan said.

Three days?

Time is a bit tight, but it’s not too late.

"In the next three days, you should find out the identity of the man Xiaoshuang is going to marry, where he lives, and whether he has any background." Su Miaomiao opened her mouth.

"Why are you trying to find out all this? Are you trying to steal the bride?" Huo Xinyuan looked at her nervously.

"This depends on the situation. You should investigate first and remember not to let others know." Su Miaomiao reminded.

"I..." Huo Xinyuan wanted to say something, but Su Miaomiao interrupted him.

"Don't hesitate, ask yourself what's in your heart. If you still feel unwilling, then do it, otherwise you may live in regret for the rest of your life. After all, the worst outcome for us is that we will stay in the countryside forever. Do you know what the worst outcome for Xiaoshuang is?" Su Miaomiao didn't say it clearly, but how could Huo Xinyuan not understand.

Once a man at the gambling table becomes obsessed with gambling, he will not care about his wife and children at all.

Xiao Shuang will not survive...

"Little sister..." Huo Xinyuan's eyes were a little red.

"Okay, stop dithering. That's not like you. Hurry up and do what I say, otherwise you really won't make it in time." Su Miaomiao looked extremely serious.
