Huo Xiao quickly looked at Wen Xia Nuan. His smile was tinged with coldness, which Wen Xia Nuan could see, but she wasn't the least bit flustered. "I wonder what else you're going to say?"
"Wen Zhiqing, my family would never abuse my brother. What you said is a bit inappropriate."
Wen Xia Nuan burst out laughing. She looked Huo Xiao up and down and asked, "You don't abuse your brother?"
She raised her eyebrows, and Huo Xiao looked at Wen Xia Nuan quietly: "Yes, my family would never abuse my brother!"
"Huo Jue, don't you feel abused?"
Wen Xia Nuan stared at him curiously, but Huo Jue said nothing.
Huo Xiao frowned and looked at his brother: "Brother, tell me, what is going on?"
"Huo Xiao, I don't care about anything else, but I can't let go of Huo Chen."
He stared at Huo Xiao with burning eyes. The moment Huo Xiao fell silent, there were some words he really couldn't say.
A hint of coldness flashed across Huo Xiao's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. He smiled and said, "Brother, no matter what, I am still your brother. How could I let someone else hurt our relationship?"
Huo Xiao looked at him with a smile, and Huo Jue's eyes were indifferent: "I don't know if this will hurt our relationship. Huo Xiao, you should take care of yourself now."
"Huo Jue, your brother has already admitted his mistake to you! Why are you still being so arrogant? Isn't that unnecessary?"
The old lady's face darkened, and she looked at Huo Jue with anger in her eyes: "That's enough!"
Huo Jue said nothing, and the old lady snorted coldly: "Ah Xiao, if your eldest brother is unwilling to forgive you, then forget it!"
She protected Huo Xiao: "After all, you are not wrong. Your elder brother just doesn't care about brotherhood!"
Huo Xiao held his grandmother's hand and quickly shook his head at her after hearing what she said: "Grandma, my brother is not what you said!"
Old Madam Huo glanced at Huo Jue and snorted coldly, "I'm not that stupid, Huo Xiao, so don't explain yourself for your brother."
Huo Jue said nothing, but Wen Xia Nuan knew that he must be feeling bad at the moment.
She subconsciously patted the back of his hand, looked at Mrs. Huo and said with a smile: "Madam, I said you were partial before, but I didn't expect you to start in the blink of an eye."
Old Mrs. Huo frowned and looked at Wen Xia Nuan with a look of disgust in her eyes: "Wen Zhiqing, if you say that, I won't agree!"
Wen Xia Nuan shrugged innocently: "If you don't agree, there's nothing I can do. After all, the facts are right in front of us. We all saw everything you did clearly."
Mrs. Huo's eyes glared. She hadn't expected Wen Xia Nuan to be so sharp-tongued. "Huo Jue, are you just going to watch an outsider bully your grandmother?"
Huo Jue said nothing. Wen Xia Nuan chuckled and looked at Mrs. Huo: "You allowed others to bully your grandson, so what if I get scolded a few times?"
After such a commotion, she really didn't want to continue.
Wen Xia Nuan put down her chopsticks and glanced at Huo Jue calmly: "I'm leaving first, you have a good rest."
She walked out of the kitchen. Old Mrs. Huo watched Wen Xia Nuan leave and couldn't help but spit: "Bah! Troublemaker!"
After seeing Wen Xia Nuan leave, Huo Xiao also turned his gaze to Huo Jue: "Brother, I'm not saying anything bad about Wen Zhiqing, but she's a little too ungrateful!"
He looked at Huo Jue angrily: "Look at what this person is doing, is she right?"
When he heard this, Huo Jue glanced at him indifferently, but walked out without saying a word.
Huo Xiao hadn't expected his brother to have such an attitude. He glanced at his grandmother for help: "Grandma, has Wen Zhiqing put a spell on my brother?"
He said urgently, "This is the first time I've seen him like this!"
The old lady frowned, and her eyes showed dissatisfaction with Huo Jue.
Huo Xiao pursed his lips and looked at his grandmother: "I know there are some things I shouldn't say, but grandma, you've seen our eldest brother's temper. I don't know what to say."
Old Mrs. Huo's face was grim. When she heard Huo Xiao's voice, she forced out an awkward smile: "Ah Xiao, you've seen your brother's attitude. He's obsessed with Wen Zhiqing now. You have to make more plans for yourself."
"I know, Grandma."
Huo Xiao shook her hand, looked at the old lady and said, "Don't worry, I'll take you back first."
He smiled, and Mrs. Huo responded but didn't refuse.
After walking out of the old lady's room, Huo Xiao walked out of the yard in the heavy rain.
Huo Chen has been waiting for Huo Xiao nervously.
After hearing his father's voice, he quickly stood up from his chair and walked out of the house: "Huo Xiao, you're finally here! How is your brother doing?"
He pursed his lips tightly: "Did he say he forgave me?"
Huo Xiao shook his head. "Second brother, I've tried my best to persuade my eldest brother, but he just doesn't want to. Look, there's nothing I can do."
Huo Chen's face darkened. "I knew Huo Jue wouldn't let it go so easily! He really wants to trample me into the mud!"
"Mom, the dismissal notice hasn't come down yet, you have to help me think of a solution!"
Li Mei gritted her teeth, her expression showing a bit of embarrassment: "Achen, this matter is not easy to handle!"
"The captain has already started to intervene, do you still expect me to change?"
Huo Chen took a deep breath and finally suppressed the anger in his heart. As his mother said this, he became angry again and said, "Then tell me, what should I do?"
This doesn't work, and that doesn't work either. Does he really have to make Huo Jue pay the price?
Thinking of his girlfriend who was still waiting for him in town, he felt uneasy: "Mom, if you don't solve this problem for me, are you sure I can still find a girlfriend?"
Huo Jue stared at his mother intently, and Li Mei felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. She certainly knew what her son's attitude was. Looking at Li Mei in front of her, she was inexplicably at a loss.
Huo Xiao stood aside, watching the situation between Li Mei and Huo Jue, and said with a tense expression, "Auntie, I have an idea."
Li Mei's gaze instantly fell on Huo Xiao: "If they refuse to let us beg for mercy, why not go and take a look when there are more people around?"
Huo Chen's eyes quickly filled with concern. He recalled everything that had happened in the past and looked at Li Mei and said, "Yes, Mom, just do as he says!"
Huo Xiao's eyes were filled with seriousness. Li Mei saw it and was silent for a long time before she said with difficulty: "Okay, I got it!"
