Chapter 12: I feel like they really don't like me.



"Xiao Jun, school has just ended, it's still early. Aunt Huo can't let you eat too much when you get home, you'll definitely feel uncomfortable if you go hungry tonight. I haven't even touched the lunchbox in my hand yet. Come on, let's find a place to eat before we go back."

As he spoke, he reached out to pull Huo Tingjun to another place to eat.

He went to have lunch with him today, but he said he had already eaten and that he would eat at home from now on and wouldn't eat with him anymore. How can that be?

Qian Feipeng's gaze fell on Huo Tingjun's obese body, and a smile inadvertently appeared on his lips.

Eat up, eat as much as you like.

Even if you get as fat as a pig, I don't believe she'll still like you.

Huo Tingjun was a fool; he actually believed that jerk's words.

Huo Tingjun and Wen Xingyue didn't get along, and Huo Tingjun often complained about Wen Xingyue in front of Qian Feipeng. Therefore, he also knew that Huo Tingjun privately called Wen Xingyue a drama queen.

"No, my mom won't let me eat too much. I need to lose weight. What my sister-in-law said is true. Besides, my sister-in-law is really nice. You're not allowed to badmouth her, or I won't play with you anymore."

He repeatedly tried to eat by himself, but Huo Tingjun's expression turned cold. She shook off his hand and even took a step back angrily.

After spending the last two days together, he unilaterally concluded that the two had established a solid foundation of friendship and would not tolerate anyone slandering his friend.

He didn't eat the lunch he brought at noon today. In the afternoon, he took time out during breaks between classes to come to the classroom and ask me if I was hungry.

Something seemed amiss.

"Xiao Jun?"

...

"Young Master, shall I push you there?"

The driver, Uncle Chen, who was responsible for taking the two of them, took the wheelchair out of the trunk of the car and helped Huo Tingxiao sit in the wheelchair. Uncle Chen was about to push Huo Tingxiao.

They parked their car across from the school, and with parents coming and going to pick up their children, it would take some time to walk there. The wheelchairs of today are not as advanced and convenient as those of later generations. Huo Tingxiao could turn the wheelchair manually over short distances without any problem, but it would be inconvenient over long distances.

"Uncle Chen, Uncle Chen, let me do it, let me do it."

Wen Xingyue got off the car from the other side, went around to Huo Tingxiao's side, and snatched the job from Uncle Chen.

Uncle Chen is getting on in years, he should rest and not overwork himself. Besides, it is my husband who should be taken care of. Grandpa Tree said that I should be good to my husband. My husband is the person who will accompany me for the rest of my life. If I am good to my husband, he will be good to me.

Although the little peach blossom spirit felt that Huo Tingxiao had always treated her well, giving her good food, letting her watch TV, and letting Little Fatty play with her, she thought her husband was good.

Huo Tingxiao's lips curled up involuntarily.

How can the little peach blossom spirit be so cute?

"Young Master?"

Uncle Chen looked at him with a troubled expression.

The young mistress looks delicate and frail, with small arms and legs; how could we let her push us?

The wheelchairs of this time were not as lightweight and easy to use as those of later generations, and Uncle Chen was worried that Wen Xingyue would not be able to push them.

"Huo Tingxiao, they... I feel like they hate me?"

Wen Xingyue successfully snatched the right to push Huo Tingxiao from Uncle Chen. Without Uncle Chen and Huo Tingxiao's permission, Wen Xingyue's small arms and legs couldn't push him. On the contrary, Wen Xingyue pushed him steadily and smoothly, even on the bumpy road.

This rendered Huo Tingxiao, who was secretly plotting against him, completely useless.

After all, the weight of the wheelchair itself, plus the weight of Huo Tingxiao, an adult male estimated to be 140 pounds, is twice as heavy as Wen Xingyue.

Wen Xingyue felt that ever since she appeared around the school, many eyes had been fixed on her. She could feel their displeasure towards them, so she silently moved closer to Huo Tingxiao.

[It seems they really dislike peach blossom spirits.]

This was the first time in three days since Wen Xingyue came to the human world that she had felt such a strong dislike.

The peach blossoms seemed a little afraid.

Hearing these words, Huo Tingxiao frowned slightly. He had naturally felt the burning gazes of those people on him ever since he got out of the car.

He looked back at the person behind him, his eyelashes drooping, his peach blossom eyes tinged with sadness, and his bright and beautiful eyes filled with a hint of worry. A pang of heartache swept through his heart.

Since arriving in the human world, the little peach blossom spirit has been quite happy, except for her initial timidity. Now, seeing her fear again is heartbreaking.

Huo Tingxiao reached out and grasped her hand that was gripping the wheelchair handle. His voice was gentle and steady, giving people a sense of reassuring strength. "It's okay. They're anxious because they can't get their child back, so they're irritable and don't seem happy to see anyone."

It was the time for school to let out, and parents and students were coming and going. A pretty little girl was pushing a wheelchair with a disabled but handsome man. This combination attracted a lot of attention, and many people stared at them with surprise and a strange feeling.

They were utterly shocked to see that it was Wen Xingyue who pushed Huo Tingxiao; it was as if they had seen a ghost.

Most of the children in the military schools are from family compounds, so the people picking up the children are mostly from those compounds. Since they all live in the same compound, many people naturally know Huo Tingxiao and Wen Xingyue, which attracted a lot of attention.

One is the troublemaker who's been causing all sorts of problems lately, and the other is the wounded hero whose injuries have been a source of regret for everyone. During this time, Wen Xingyue has been cursing Huo Tingxiao for being crippled and the Huo family for deceiving her into marriage, calling them shameless. Wen Xingyue's disruptive behavior at the wedding banquet had already drawn criticism from many people, and her constant cursing of Huo Tingxiao and the Huo family's affairs only fueled their disgust for her.

Especially after the news of Huo Tingxiao's leg disability came out, Wen Xingyue shamelessly chased after the man, which made everyone despise her even more. They had never seen such a shameless woman.

When someone is doing well, they insist on marrying them, but as soon as something happens to them, they turn their backs on them faster than flipping through a book.

Even though they lived in the same residential compound, it was obvious who everyone favored: the Huo family's character and conduct, and Huo Tingxiao, that kid everyone talked about since childhood—a troublemaker who made everyone's home uneasy.

Although it was indeed a bit inappropriate for Huo Tingxiao to leave on his wedding night to carry out a mission, that's just how it is in the military. Since Wen Xingyue insisted on marrying Huo Tingxiao, who is a soldier, she should be prepared for this.

Wen Xingyue's outburst was despised by many, and there has been much discussion about it behind her back.

During this period, Wen Xingyue became the focus of everyone's attention in the family compound.

She behaved herself for two days and didn't chase after the man anymore, which surprised everyone. They secretly wondered what big trouble Wen Xingyue was going to cause this time, and whether the two of them would get a divorce.

After all, Wen Xingyue's affair with another man was common knowledge, and no man could tolerate such a thing, even if it was a life-saving favor.

Some people privately inquired with the Huo couple whether the two were getting a divorce. The Huo couple warned them not to spread rumors, saying that nothing of the sort was going on, and that Wen Xingyue was a good person.
