Chapter 187 Is her son so incompetent?

When Xiao Junhe finally talked about his father's soul being imprisoned in a certain place and being tortured, Xi Yao's expression immediately changed.

"What you said... is true?!"

Her voice trembled, and her eyes were filled with surprise and worry.

She thought she would never see her husband again.

But now, her son told her.

Her husband is still alive!

Does that mean she still has a chance to meet her husband?

However, when she thought of her husband being tortured, her heart felt as if it was being pulled by someone.

This emotion comes from the heart and cannot be ignored.

Xiao Junhe nodded.

"Well, this time we came to Gui City just to find Dad, but he wasn't there.

But we already know our next destination.

Get ready to go today."

"That......"

Xi Yao was originally about to ask if she could be taken along.

She also wanted to go with him to find her husband.

But when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back.

She was afraid that staying with her son would hurt him.

Xiao Junhe noticed that she was hesitant to speak and seemed to have guessed what she was struggling with.

"Mom, do you want to go with us?" he asked directly.

Xi Yao hesitated for a while, but finally nodded.

She really wanted to go.

Although so many years have passed, her feelings for her husband have not diminished in the slightest.

Now that she knew he was suffering, how could she remain indifferent?

"But I'm worried..." She looked worried.

"Mom, if you're worried that you'll hurt me if you stay with us, that's totally unnecessary." Xiao Junhe raised his brows slightly, "Ajiu is very capable, she'll find a way."

Guling is also a ghost.

But he can stay with Ajiu normally.

This means that Ajiu must have a way.

When Xiao Junhe mentioned the word "Ajiu", his eyes instantly became gentle, and a smile crossed Xi Yao's lips.

"Is the Ajiu you are talking about the girl just now?"

"Um."

"You have good taste. The girl is pretty, capable, and has a good personality. Are you married? Do you have children?" Xi Yao asked with a smile.

Xiao Junhe clenched his fist and placed it on his lips, coughing softly, "Mom, we are not even boyfriend and girlfriend now."

"ah?"

Xi Yao was confused.

Is my son so incompetent?

She looked at Xiao Junhe with a strange look.

With a bit of disbelief and a bit of disgust.

When his father was pursuing her, he was very powerful.

This son didn't inherit anything.

In line with the principle of encouragement, she said earnestly, "Then you have to work harder. Good girls are hard to come by. She is so outstanding. If you don't work harder, it will be too late for someone else to snatch her away."

Xiao Junhe: ...

Why did he see a hint of disgust in his mother's eyes?

Xi Yao knew that Xiao Junhe still minded that she and He Huainan had lived together for so many years.

She recounted the events of those years in a matter-of-fact manner and from her perspective.

After finishing the story, Xiao Junhe's knot in his heart was finally resolved.

The strange feeling between him and Xi Yao after not seeing each other for a long time was gradually disappearing.

Although they are not as close as when they were children, he is no longer the little boy who loved to stick to his mother when he was a child. He is already very satisfied with the current situation.

Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected surprise when I came to Gui City this time!

Although he didn't find his father, he did find his mother.

Isn’t this another kind of gain?

The mother and son chatted about family matters.

They talked about interesting childhood events, Xiao Junhe's growth, Mr. Xiao's strictness, and the company's development.

In short, they talked about whatever came to their mind.

Xiao Junhe also knew that the reason why Xi Yao acted like this was because she felt that she owed him and wanted to get closer to him.

On the other hand, he was probably also worried about He Huainan's situation, afraid that he would think too much when he had free time.

After the conversation just now, he no longer minded He Huainan's existence.

On the contrary, he was quite grateful to the other party.

If it weren't for the other person, he would never have the chance to see his mother again.

Moreover, for so many years, the other party has been taking care of his mother for him and his father.

He will naturally never forget this kindness.

Time passes by every second.

The He family and Xiao Junhe were all waiting in agony.

It was almost one o'clock in the afternoon when Yun Mojiu pushed open the door and walked out.

Mr. He and others who had been waiting outside the door immediately went to greet them.

"Miss Yun, what's going on?"

Mr. He's face was full of concern.

Yun Mojiu wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"He's fine now, but he's still a little weak. For the next month, it's best not to let him move around freely. He needs to take good care of himself and eat some warm and nourishing food."

She explained.

Mr. He wrote them down one by one.

"Okay, you can go in and see him now."

Yun Mojiu moved aside the door.

Mr. He thanked him gratefully and hurried inside.

Although he kept calling He Huainan a "bad boy, a rebellious son", he really loved this son in his heart.

He Shiyao and the others followed him in.

Finally, everyone finished speaking and came out together.

They looked at Xi Yao.

He Shiyao spoke first, "Um, Aunt Xiyao, my uncle said he wants to talk to you alone."

Even though the other person is much older than me, there is nothing wrong with calling her auntie.

But who can blame him for dying so young?

He Shiyao always felt something was weird about calling such a young-looking girl "Auntie".

Hearing the voice, Xi Yao glanced at Xiao Junhe.

"Xiaohe, I..."

"Mom, please go in."

Xiao Junhe knew that she was still concerned about his feelings, so he smiled gently to comfort her and show that he didn't mind.

Seeing this, Xi Yao walked in with confidence.

Everyone tactfully walked away.

However, Yun Mojiu, who had extraordinary hearing, still heard some of it.

In fact, the two of them didn't say anything.

At first, Xi Yao was concerned about He Huainan's health.

After He Huainan said it was nothing serious, the two of them fell into silent silence.

After a while, He Huainan spoke first.

He did not mention anything about the past, but only asked Xiyao to take good care of herself in the future.

He seemed to have known that Xiyao was leaving.

Listening to his words, Xi Yao sobbed softly.

She kept saying thank you and sorry.

Finally, both of them said goodbye to each other with a smile.

It also put an end to the fate between the two.
