The implication of defending Wen Xingyue made the people in the family compound scoff. Wen Xingyue is good? Has someone lost their mind? How can someone as troublesome and capricious as Wen Xingyue be good?
However, despite their inner complaints, the Huo family was known for their fierce protectiveness of their own. No matter how fiercely they argued internally, they would not tolerate any slander in front of outsiders.
The fact that the two of them are now appearing together, seemingly getting along very well, naturally attracts a lot of attention.
The little peach blossom spirit doesn't understand the complexities of the human world, but Huo Tingxiao does. However, he doesn't intend to let Wen Xingyue know about these complicated matters, lest the little peach blossom spirit be frightened.
"Really?"
Huo Tingxiao's gentle and steady voice soothed Wen Xingyue's nervousness and timidity.
Wen Xingyue had only recently taken human form. Before that, she had lived in a secret realm in the cultivation world, basically isolated from the outside world. She spent most of her time with Grandpa Tree and the little elves of the fairy realm. She was very innocent.
After arriving in the human world, she has only met a handful of people. Even though she has absorbed the memories of one of her souls, she has never truly faced them in person. Having been a tree for thousands of years, she is still not quite used to it and is slowly exploring everything about the human world. She is also quite timid.
"Of course it's true."
Huo Tingxiao nodded seriously, even though he knew the reason, he didn't feel guilty at all for not lying.
The little peach blossom spirit was naive and, because Huo Tingxiao was her partner, she trusted him completely and believed him.
"Let's go pick up Little Fatty. Do you know where he is?"
Wen Xingyue pushed Huo Tingxiao forward again.
The others actively avoided the two, creating a small gap in the crowded road. Firstly, they didn't want to get involved with Wen Xingyue, that troublesome person, and secondly, they were worried that they might accidentally bump into Huo Tingxiao's leg.
"Tingxiao, are you here to pick up Xiaojun?"
A kind-looking woman named Aunt Zhang, who was on good terms with Huo's mother, approached the two with a vegetable basket in her hand.
“Aunt Zhang, yes.” Huo Tingxiao nodded.
"This is Aunt Zhang."
He then turned around and gently introduced the product to Wen Xingyue.
Hello, Aunt Zhang.
Sensing no malice from this person, Wen Xingyue smiled slightly, her eyes crinkling, and spoke in a clear voice.
"well."
Aunt Zhang was taken aback for a moment when she saw Wen Xingyue greeting her so sweetly, but when she met those gentle eyes, she smiled and nodded.
"Tingxiao, what did the doctor say about your leg? It can definitely be cured, right?"
What prompted Aunt Zhang to approach was her concern for Huo Tingxiao; her eyes were filled with care.
She had just returned home from her hometown when she learned that Huo Tingxiao had come back from a neighboring city. She happened to run into him while picking up her grandson, so she came over to ask him about it.
"The chances are slim."
Huo Tingxiao looked down at his legs, which he couldn't use, and a bitter smile appeared on his lips.
Even though Wen Xingyue said there was still hope for his leg, where was that hope?
When will we be able to wait for that day?
"It can definitely be cured."
Wen Xingyue didn't miss Huo Tingxiao's fleeting sadness, and for some reason, she felt a dull ache in her heart.
The calamity has been broken, and Huo Tingxiao's leg can definitely be healed. It's just that a suitable doctor hasn't been found yet. Once that doctor is found, Huo Tingxiao's leg will be cured.
I could sense that the doctor would appear soon.
Just wait a moment.
“Yes, Xingyue is right, Tingxiao’s leg can definitely be healed.”
Wen Xingyue's firm and decisive words surprised Aunt Zhang. She looked into Wen Xingyue's clear and bright eyes and nodded and smiled in agreement.
She didn't see any disdain in Wen Xingyue's eyes, but rather a lot of worry.
When she returned from her hometown, the first thing she heard was that Huo Tingxiao's leg was crippled. The second thing was that everyone was saying Wen Xingyue was running away, had found a new man, wanted to divorce Huo Tingxiao, and was causing a scene at the Huo family home, cursing Huo Tingxiao for being crippled. One thing after another, Aunt Zhang was completely overwhelmed.
Now, after meeting Wen Xingyue, he couldn't help but doubt those rumors. The young girl and Tingxiao seemed to get along harmoniously, chatting and laughing together. How could she look like she was getting a divorce or disliking Huo Tingxiao? Let's put aside the matter of her finding another man for now.
Judging from what she sees, the couple seems to have a pretty good relationship.
I told you, couples don't hold grudges overnight. Before, it was just that Tingxiao left on their wedding night, which made Wen Xingyue unhappy. Now that he's back, the two of them can spend some time together and have a good talk. See, he's changed.
"Xingyue, Tingxiao is back now. He's a very good person. You'll know once you spend more time with him. Medical technology is advancing every day, so there's still hope for Tingxiao's leg."
Aunt Zhang leaned closer to Wen Xingyue and said cheerfully.
In this day and age, most people advise reconciliation rather than separation.
Now, Wen Xingyue looks docile and gentle, unlike before when she was covered in thorns and would prick anyone who got close. This put Aunt Zhang's mind at ease, since Wen Xingyue's previous troublesome nature made people unwilling to provoke her.
Now that I've put it down, I can't help but chatter.
"I know."
Wen Xingyue didn't understand the deeper meaning of Aunt Zhang's words, but she could still understand the simple meaning: Aunt Zhang was praising Huo Tingxiao.
The little girl had a sweet smile, and her charming eyebrows couldn't hide her joy.
Huo Tingxiao will cook delicious food for me, let me watch TV, and have Xiao Pang play with me. Now he's even taking me out to play, and he's going to buy me some more treats later. Hehe, of course that's great!
Her heartfelt words reached Huo Tingxiao's ears; her simple and straightforward words conveyed her sincere affection for him, making Huo Tingxiao's heart feel as if it were being soaked in sweet water.
