Chapter 377 Huo Xingzhou, You Have a Cruel Heart
A strong and stimulating liquid splashed out.
Huo Xingzhou leaned over and held Qiao Xi in his arms, but Liu Huimin was faster. She stood in front of Xu Xingluo to block most of the liquid, and she stumbled and fell on the deck, with a large piece of skin on her knee scraped and soaked with bright red blood.
Liu Huimin cried out in pain.
But the liquid that fell on my body did not cause any pain, only a strong pungent smell.
Still in shock.
Xu Xingluo had been controlled by the bodyguards. She struggled and stared at Qiao Xi and Liu Huimin in disbelief.
"impossible!"
"How could this happen?"
Her voice was hoarse, as if it had been rubbed by rough gravel, very unpleasant and harsh. There was a taste of blood in her throat, and her eyes were about to pop out.
"That can't be true! I brought concentrated sulfuric acid with me, how come you are fine?"
Normally, concentrated sulfuric acid would corrode clothes and skin immediately when it came into contact with them, and it would even emit an unpleasant burning smell. However, the things she splashed only wet the clothes of Liu Huimin and Huo Xingzhou, leaving their skin unscathed.
How could this happen?
Xu Xingluo bent down and smelled the glass bottle, and even touched it with his hand, but there was no damage at all.
This is not concentrated sulfuric acid!
It's vinegar!
The strong vinegar smell was also very pungent, and everyone was too panicked to recognize it at first.
Now I have calmed down and reacted.
It turned out that the so-called sulfuric acid bottle actually contained extremely concentrated vinegar. The pungent sour smell was almost indistinguishable from the real thing, and Xu Xingluo almost fooled him.
Qiao Xi raised her head from Huo Xingzhou's arms, and things were exactly as she had guessed.
Xu Xingluo's concentrated sulfuric acid was tampered with.
She said, how could Huo Xingzhou allow such a big mistake to happen at the Huo family's banquet? It turned out that they had been prepared in advance.
This is the big fish that will catch Xu Xingluo.
Xu Xingluo's hair was disheveled and her face was grim: "Huo Xingzhou, you already knew what I was going to do. You were the one who changed my things, right?"
Huo Xingzhou looked at her calmly: "You were once a famous lady in Haicheng, a daughter of the Liu family, you received higher education, and you were also a victim of the real daughter being swapped with the fake one. If you had confessed Xu Guangyao's crime at the first time, instead of choosing to cover it up and become an accomplice, I don't think you would have ended up like this. The Liu family would have treated you well..."
He is telling the truth.
Xu Xingluo burst into tears and said, "You said those few words so easily! But do you understand the feeling of falling from the clouds to the mud? On what basis do you..."
“He understands!”
Qiao Xi dropped her hands to the ground with a sound. She looked at Xu Xingluo and said coldly, "He understands better than anyone! When he got into a car accident and became a waste, and was trampled on and abandoned by you, his pain was no less than yours! Do you want to destroy the whole world because you think everyone has wronged you? But no one has wronged you, and you were happy enough in the past."
Qiao Xi felt sorry for Huo Xingzhou, and she hated Xu Xingluo's face even more.
Huo Xingzhou held her hand tightly and said in a cold voice: "Zhou Yu, take her away first. Don't let her go crazy here and disturb everyone's interest."
"Okay."
Zhou Yu called on the bodyguards to drag Xu Xingluo away, and he would probably interrogate her thoroughly.
"Huo Xingzhou! Is your heart made of stone? Huo Xingzhou!" Xu Xingluo screamed loudly.
Zhou Yu picked up a rag and stuffed it into her mouth, blocking her voice.
"Behave yourself, or you'll be in trouble. Can't you just stay in the mental hospital with all the good food and drinks? Why do you have to come out and cause trouble? Xu Xingluo, this is your last chance."
Two bodyguards dragged Xu Xingluo away, and the fireworks on the deck also ended.
…
"Excuse me, everyone. Please move to the banquet hall to enjoy the food and wine." Huo Xingzhou looked at all the guests and said, "I'll change my clothes first. Excuse me."
"Mr. Huo, you're too polite. It's all the fault of that spoiler."
"Today was a thrilling day. It was a special experience hahaha..."
They were all interesting people, and they all brought their female companions back to the banquet hall.
The band in the banquet hall played dance music, and many people danced together. There were also groups of three or five people gathered together to chat over snacks, and the topic of conversation was all about the secret of Xu Xingluo's life, and they were full of emotion.
And on the deck.
The fireworks in the sky have ended.
The lighthouse in the distance was very dazzling, and the rows of lights on the deck shone on the Huo family and the Liu family. Du Ya and Yang Yuerong helped Liu Huimin up, looked at the dirt and wounds on her body and said, "Why don't you go back to the lounge to change clothes? I happen to have spare clothes."
Liu Huimin's hair was messy and she shook her head with tears on her face.
"It's OK."
Du Ya said, "You also need to treat the wound on your leg. It's quite large."
The deck was rough, so how could such rapid friction be a minor injury? Du Ya lifted her skirt slightly and saw that her knees were bloody and the fabric was torn.
It was obvious that he was hurt from the fall.
Du Yan's mind was complicated, and she said, "Why did you go to stop them? Xingzhou said something like that to provoke her, so there must be a trick up her sleeve. This cruise ship belongs to the Huo family, how could Xu Xingluo bring concentrated sulfuric acid on board?"
They didn't react at first, but gradually they came to their senses.
Liu Huimin burst into tears and looked at Qiao Xi with hazy eyes: "I didn't think too much about it. Fortunately, it wasn't concentrated sulfuric acid."
She would not regret it even if concentrated sulfuric acid splashed on her.
This is what she owes Qiao Xi.
As a mother, she should protect her child.
Even if it was concentrated sulfuric acid, what did it matter? She had done so many wrong things and deserved to be disfigured and burned. If I could get a little bit of the child's sincerity in return, I would be satisfied.
"Yes, fortunately it's not concentrated sulfuric acid."
Yang Yuerong held the child and whispered, "I was so scared that my soul flew away. I was thinking about how to deal with so much concentrated sulfuric acid splashing on Huimin. She has always been spoiled and pampered. I never thought she would run away."
She said this to improve Liu Huimin's favorability.
I hope the Huo family won’t be so hostile towards her.
"Which mother doesn't truly love her children? Sometimes, she is biased against them without any reason. It is this love that is exploited by evil people that leads to repeated mistakes."
Yang Yuerong stopped at the right time.
Qiao Xi heard her words, her hands dropped to her sides, and she said in a very calm tone: "Mom, Jiaojiao. Xingzhou and I will go upstairs to change clothes first. The party is still going on."
She had some doubts that needed Huo Xingzhou to clarify.
Du Ya nodded: "Okay, then you guys go slower."
"knew."
Qiao Xi took Huo Xingzhou's arm, paused and said, "Mom, Ms. Liu is also a guest of the Huo family. Please take her upstairs to change clothes and treat her wounds, so that outsiders won't say that our Huo family didn't entertain her well."
The Liu family felt a surge of joy in their hearts, especially Liu Huimin, who was smiling even with tears on her face.
"Why."
Du Ya responded.
The child is a good child, and has a soft heart. It's a pity that he was hurt too deeply by the Liu family.
She watched Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou walk away, then she deliberately put on a stern face and said to Liu Huimin: "Our Xixi is very kind to cats and dogs. If anyone was injured on our Huo family's territory, she would do the same. Don't be so self-indulgent."
Liu Huimin pretended not to hear what Du Ya said, and believed that Qiao Xi's attitude had softened and that she had changed her mind about her.
"She is a good child, but I am not a good mother. I will definitely work hard to be a good mother. Yunye, can you accompany me to change the dressing?"
"Um."
Xu Yunye's expression was cool and a little cold. Recently, Liu Huimin had been making delicious food for him at home in various ways, and he didn't complain much about Liu Huimin.
The Huo family took the Liu family upstairs.
The deck was quiet, with lights flickering.
Zhong Yi leaned against the railing, with the corners of his mouth curled up for some inexplicable reason.
He glanced at Mingzhu nonchalantly and said, "You look unhappy. Are you unhappy in some way?"
When he is unhappy, he makes trouble for others.
