Chapter 306 Investigation
People's thoughts are sometimes very complicated.
She wanted to hear the real answer from Huo Xilin, but she was afraid.
Because when the truth is laid out before you, no matter what choice you make, it will become difficult.
What will be faced at that time is the revenge for her parents and the grace of saving her brother. He is the father of her child and the most important person in her heart.
At this moment, it was as if there were two villains fighting in Xu Qingsui's mind, one was eager to know the truth of the matter, and the other was timid and wanted to pretend that nothing had happened and let this matter be buried as time passed.
After hearing Xu Qingsui's question, Huo Xilin was stunned for a moment, then he gently hooked her nose, with a doting look in his eyes, and said to her very gently: "I treat you so well not because of your identity. You are you, the one and only Xu Qingsui, the person I, Huo Xilin, love most in this life."
Even though this was a lie, she was still deeply moved when she heard it.
People are like this sometimes. They are afraid of getting hurt, but they are willing to give others the opportunity to hurt them.
Seeing Xu Qingsui's red eyes, Huo Xilin couldn't help but hug her into his arms: "Silly girl, why are you crying? Good days are still to come."
Xu Qingsui couldn't help but hug him tightly, burying his face in his chest, and tears fell uncontrollably.
She burst into tears because what Huo Xilin said made her very sad.
He said that good days were yet to come, which was obviously a nice thing to say, but she was very scared and sad.
If the truth were to be uncovered, and it turned out that their parents' death was really related to the Huo family and Huo Xilin, their good days would be over.
Although Xu Qingsui did not cry out loud, the feeling of her trembling shoulders and warm tears through her shirt still made him feel distressed.
He patted her back gently and said, "What happened today? Tell me, maybe I can help."
Xu Qingsui wiped her tears on his clothes, then looked up and asked him, "Have you ever done anything to let me down? Now I'll give you a chance to confess and get some leniency."
As long as he said it, as long as he didn't do it, Xu Qingsui was willing not to pursue the matter.
If you think about it carefully, Huo Xilin was still so young at that time. How could a child have any bad thoughts?
If it was done by the Huo family, then what grudge could there be between the Huo family and the Xu family? To do this cruel thing.
Xu Qingsui racked his brains but couldn't figure out why.
Looking into Xu Qingsui's eyes, Huo Xilin spoke seriously, "I will never do anything to truly let you down, not in the past and not in the future."
His expression was so serious, so serious that Xu Qingsui almost believed it.
Putting aside whether the death of his parents was related to the Huo family and him, just the matter of Yan Xisui and Yan Linzhou, doesn't it count as being unfair to her?
In his eyes, what kind of thing could be considered an apology?
"What's wrong with you today?" Huo Xilin's eyes were full of panic. He was a smart man and he noticed that something was wrong with Xu Qingsui from the moment they met. Moreover, she asked him so many strange questions.
Could it be that someone said something to her?
"Did you meet someone or hear any misunderstandings?" he asked subconsciously.
Xu Qingsui was surprised by his question and asked, "You seem to be afraid that I know something? So is there something that Mr. Huo doesn't want me to know?"
Huo Xilin was stunned for a moment, then his eyes dodged a little, and he said casually, "What can I hide from you?"
In front of her, he always lied, but he seemed not to be good at lying, and she always saw through him at a glance.
"Since you are deliberately concealing it, how would I know?" Xu Qingsui stared at him motionlessly, as if trying to find the answer from his face.
Huo Xilin's gaze seemed to be sharp, and whenever he looked at someone, the other person would just avoid him. But this time, he didn't dare to look directly into Xu Qingsui's eyes, as he was obviously feeling guilty.
Her heart instantly sank to the bottom. Xu Qingsui knew very well that Huo Xilin would not tell her the truth, but his expression already explained everything.
"Mr. Huo, I have given you a chance. If I find out in the future that you are hiding something from me and you don't tell me now, don't blame me for leaving you!" Xu Qingsui blinked mischievously and spoke to him in a deliberately joking tone.
But only she herself understood how serious she was in saying this.
She was not only giving Huo Xilin a chance, but also giving herself a chance, a chance to be reborn, or to give up.
But even though it was a joking tone, Huo Xilin still looked nervous after hearing it, and hugged her tightly in his arms, as if he was imprisoned: "Don't say such things again in the future, I will never let you leave me!"
Xu Qingsui sighed silently. If two people's hearts are not together, what's the point of keeping a body by their side?
If he can control her body, can he also control her heart?
Xu Qingsui thought that the day the truth came out might be the day her heart died.
At this moment, she was very conflicted. She resisted his release because of her doubts, but she also longed for his tenderness because of her reluctance to let go.
Seeing that Xu Qingsui let him hug him obediently without resistance, Huo Xilin's tense heart gradually relaxed.
At this time, the little guy ran in after strolling in the back garden. Seeing the two hugging each other, he quickly ran over and hugged their thighs with his hands: "Daddy, Mommy, this place is so big!"
Xu Qingsui pushed Huo Xilin aside, picked up the little guy, and asked, "Do you like it here?"
Xu Youyou nodded vigorously: "I like it. It would be great if Ye Zihan could be invited to visit."
Perhaps it was the thought of facing a new environment and unfamiliar classmates and teachers that made Xu Youyou feel a little melancholy.
For a child of his age, adapting to a new environment requires courage, not to mention that he is an introvert.
Thinking of this, Xu Qingsui still felt guilty, because the grudges between adults indirectly affected the children, which was really wrong.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she thought of something. She said to the little girl, "Although we can't directly invite little girl Ye Zihan to visit the site, we can give her a video call. You can see everything in the video. What do you think?"
After hearing what Xu Qingsui said, Xu Youyou instantly became happy: "Okay!"
