Chapter 213 Who is the outsider?
Old Mrs. Huo just looked at her quietly.
"If you can really stop interfering in Ting Xiao's problems, why worry about these things?"
Ji Huiying was speechless.
She had never expected the old lady to be here.
Jianyuan never told her about it.
If she had told him, she really wouldn't have rashly come to Peking.
Ji Huiying took a deep breath.
He lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking about.
——
On this side, Huo Tingxiao returned to the car.
He restrained his expression imperceptibly, and tenderness spread in his eyes.
"Where's grandma?"
Shen Qingran asked in a soft voice.
Huo Tingxiao said calmly, "Grandma said to stay here today."
Shen Qingran understood that the old lady was probably trying to help her.
"Grandma's cerebral blood vessels can't stand the stimulation, so why don't you stay?"
Huo Tingxiao nodded and said, "I'll take you back first. I'll ask Sun Feng to help me keep an eye on it."
Seeing that he had made all the arrangements, Shen Qingran said nothing more.
Huo Tingxiao started the car and drove into the darkness.
Shen Qingran glanced at someone's icy eyes.
The voice was gentle, "Huo Tingxiao, don't worry, I don't care."
When Huo Tingxiao heard her say this, he felt even more sad.
He just felt sorry for her.
Let her suffer such injustice.
Certain emotions in his eyes grew stronger. He reached out and held her hand, stroking the back of her soft hand with his fingertips.
The voice was tinged with fatigue.
"I didn't know she would come, Ranran. If I had known, I wouldn't have let you see her."
Shen Qingran said sincerely, "Huo Tingxiao, I will not waste my emotions for someone who is not worth it, even if he is your mother."
Why do you have to sacrifice yourself for someone if you like him?
Shen Qingran now thinks very clearly.
"Huo Tingxiao, not every pair of parents in this world are competent parents. Not every mother will love her children unconditionally."
"You are not her appendage."
Huo Tingxiao's grip tightened slightly.
"good."
Compared to herself, Shen Qingran is actually more worried about Huo Tingxiao.
His status seems to be better than what he checked.
The car arrived downstairs quickly.
Shen Qingran got out of the car and walked around to the driver's seat. The two of them just looked at each other quietly.
"It's cold outside, go back and rest."
Shen Qingran suddenly reached out and hugged his head and rubbed it.
"Huo Tingxiao, I like you. So, you have to treat yourself well."
Huo Tingxiao was stunned.
There was a light of joy in his deep eyes.
"Okay, let's go back, Captain Huo."
Huo Tingxiao touched her cheek with his fingers, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
"good."
Watching her go upstairs, Huo Tingxiao let out a long sigh.
He closed his eyes.
Disappeared downstairs in the unit.
The silence of the night is like a silent tide.
When Huo Tingxiao returned to the compound, he looked at the house where the light was still on.
The night wind blew, but Huo Tingxiao still walked in.
With a creaking sound.
The mother and son looked at each other.
Huo Tingxiao looked at her with complicated eyes.
"mom."
Ji Huiying turned her head away without even saying a word.
Anyone could see her displeasure.
Huo Tingxiao walked over slowly and stretched out his hand to help the man up.
Ji Huiying slapped him away without mercy.
At this moment, anger began to rise little by little on his tense face.
Huo Tingxiao froze.
He bent his legs silently and knelt beside her without saying a word.
Time passes by every second.
Neither the mother nor the son spoke, it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
The night wind kept blowing in into the cold and deserted living room.
Ji Huiying only felt her breathing becoming more and more rapid, and her fingers pinched her palms hard.
"Since you're on that woman's side, why are you kneeling in front of me, your mother?"
Huo Tingxiao froze for half a second.
"Mom, I never wanted to take anyone's side."
Ji Huiying's voice unconsciously rose, and she said aggressively, "Huo Tingxiao, you teamed up with outsiders to treat your mother like this, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
"Outsider?" Huo Tingxiao repeated the two words, "Mom, are you talking about grandma or my wife?"
Ji Huiying felt a pang in her heart and turned to stare at him hatefully.
"Is this your upbringing?"
Huo Tingxiao turned around silently and looked at Ji Huiying, "Mom, do you still remember Ji Mingxu?"
Ji Huiying was stunned.
An overwhelming amount of memories came flooding back to her. Ji Huiying breathed rapidly, her chest rising and falling. "So, do you still remember those things from your childhood?"
Huo Tingxiao shook his head lightly, "Too many times, there are always a few times that I can't forget."
Ji Huiying stammered, as if she had never known the person in front of her.
His voice and attitude softened unconsciously.
"Ting Xiao, Mom is doing this for your own good. Your cousins... are younger than you, so you should protect them. We are all family, and you are so petty... You are so pathetic."
Huo Tingxiao did not refute, as if he had heard these words too many times.
Already immune.
"Are they more relatives than grandma and Ranran?"
Ji Huiying was furious and said, "Huo Tingxiao, do you want me to kowtow to you and admit my mistake?"
Huo Tingxiao's internal organs seemed to be squeezed again.
You clearly know what it is like, so why do you still want to confirm it again?
But I really heard this sentence.
The turbid air that had been weighing on my heart for so long seemed to slowly dissipate.
Ranran said, Huo Tingxiao, you have to be good to yourself.
He stood up slowly and looked quietly at Ji Huiying who was still kneeling on the ground.
"Where are you going?"
Huo Tingxiao seemed to have regained his indifference. "Office."
"You..." Don't you care about me?
Before Ji Huiying could ask any questions, Huo Tingxiao had already turned around and left home.
The sound of a door closing.
A gust of cold wind suddenly stopped and Ji Huiying trembled all over. She seemed to feel that something was missing.
It slipped away from her hands silently.
"Ting Xiao..." Ji Huiying's dry throat couldn't even make a sound.
Old Mrs. Huo walked out of the room quietly.
"mom......."
"You forced him away with your own hands. It has nothing to do with me."
Ji Huiying's mouth was full of bitterness.
That's not the case. She loves him. They are her own flesh and blood. How could she really not love him?
She obviously didn't mean to say that, she...
Old Madam Huo glared at her pale face and said, "Get up. It's useless to kneel down and feel unconvinced."
"You're on your own."
Old Mrs. Huo is a sensible person.
The eldest grandson came back and still practiced the same method.
She also has to give face to her eldest grandson.
We can't make life difficult for him.
As for the rest, let’s talk about it tomorrow.
