Chapter 528 She Has a Better Candidate

It's the sound of a car!

Then there was the sound of chaotic footsteps.

A figure rushed in, "Sister-in-law!"

"Huo Sijiao? Why is she in the imperial capital?" Sun Weimeng looked puzzled.

Qiao Xi looked at her in astonishment: "Jiao Jiao?"

I looked at Huo Xingzhou again and found that there was no surprise on his expression.

This was obviously known a long time ago.

Huo Sijiao ran to Qiao Xi and saw the gauze wrapped around her hands, her eyes turned red.

Tears fell instantly!

She did not go to the Chinese Medicine Hall to watch the game today, but was angry with Shen Xuanzhi. So she stayed in the hotel to watch the live broadcast, but she did not expect such a thing to happen.

Her tears rolled down like big pearls: "Sister-in-law, how did they hurt you like this? It must be very painful, I wish I could cut them into pieces!"

Qiao Xi quickly comforted him, "It's okay, it's been handled. When did you arrive in the capital? Why didn't you tell us?"

Huo Sijiao cried and choked: "I arrived a few days ago! This must have been done by Xiang Mingzhu. That night I was still wondering what she was doing at Yunqi Hotel. She must have bribed that guy named Li Songwen!"

She cried so sadly and couldn't stop her tears!

"It's all my fault! If I had followed them, I would have discovered their conspiracy!"

"It has nothing to do with you. It's their dirty thoughts."

Qiao Xi patted her back gently and said, "Don't cry. You won't look good if you cry."

Sun Weimeng quickly pulled out a few tissues and stuffed them into Huo Sijiao's hands with disgust: "Not only that, but when you cry, you look like Zhu Bajie! You cry so loudly, it's so ugly."

"Sun is mighty!"

Huo Sijiao wiped her tears vigorously with a tissue and glared at him fiercely.

Sun Wei glanced at her and muttered a few words, then moved to the side with the medicine grinder. He was still grinding the herbs with a grunt.

Qiao Xi just said that the amount for one time is enough, and the medicine will definitely need to be changed later!

So he had to prepare more medicine powder, as freshly ground ones would be more effective.

This family would be ruined without his grandson!

Blah, blah!

Sun Weimeng sat on the edge and started rolling again.

Huo Sijiao sat beside Qiao Xi, sniffing and asking about her well-being.

Qiao Xi held her hand and said, "I'll ask Xiao Yuan to clean up the guest room for you. You can stay here tonight."

Huo Sijiao shook her head quickly: "My luggage is at Yunqi Hotel. This small villa seems crowded with so many people living in it. It's more convenient for me to stay in the hotel."

She has selfish motives.

She cares about her sister-in-law, but can't let go of Shen Xuanzhi.

Qiao Xi pursed her lips and said worriedly: "But the imperial capital is dangerous, those people will do anything to get what they want. I'm afraid they will do something to you..."

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. This is a society ruled by law. I will be careful."

Qiao Xi frowned slightly, thinking that Huo Sijiao might not have fully understood the true colors of the Lu and Xiang families. In their hearts, there is no law, only interests.

Maybe Lu Yan and Xiang Ze are just pawns who can be abandoned and take the blame at a critical moment.

Her gaze fell on Huo Xingzhou, hoping that he could speak up to keep Huo Sijiao.

After all, Huo Sijiao is most afraid of her brother and usually listens to him!

Who knows!

Huo Xingzhou said calmly: "Then you should stay in a hotel. It's a bit crowded here."

Qiao Xi opened her mouth slightly, but still did not say a word of questioning.

Huo Xingzhou has his reasons for everything he does.

Huo Sijiao was relieved: "Thank you, brother. I will take good care of myself. And please don't tell my parents that I lied to them and said I was traveling abroad."

If her parents knew that she followed Shen Xuanzhi to the imperial capital, who knows what kind of trouble would happen.

She really can't let go of the person she fell in love with for the first time.

"Um."

Huo Xingzhou responded indifferently.

Huo Sijiao was very happy to get Huo Xingzhou's consent.

"Sister-in-law, I..."

She wanted to pull Qiao Xi aside to talk to her for a few more words, but Huo Xingzhou hugged Qiao Xi's shoulders and said, "Your sister-in-law is very tired. I'll take her back to her room to rest. Dinner will be brought to her room later."

Qiao Xi's face was pale, with cold sweat on her forehead, and she looked very tired indeed.

Huo Sijiao didn't dare to say anything more, and only said: "Sister-in-law, you should take good care of yourself. I will come to see you tomorrow."

"Well, Jiaojiao, be careful on the road. Let Lao Chen take you to the hotel."

"Okay, sister-in-law, don't worry about me. I'm actually one year older than you."

Qiao Xi pursed her lips and smiled at her, but was picked up by Huo Xingzhou.

He carefully avoided her right hand and carried her towards the stairs.

He didn't say anything else.

Her rosy thin lips were tightly pursed and her eyes were deep and calm.

Qiao Xi looked at his graceful profile and for a moment she forgot the pain.

Huo Xingzhou carried her to the big bed in the master bedroom, and the man turned on all the lights.

The room is bright.

He took a pillow gently and covered her with the silk quilt.

Qiao Xi half leaned against the head of the bed and said, "I'm not a porcelain doll. I just hurt my hand, but I can still walk and jump. He just left like that without even saying a few words to Jiaojiao."

Huo Xingzhou poured her a glass of warm water and said, "She can talk till dawn. She has no sense of propriety. If you want to chat, there will be plenty of time later."

Qiao Xi pulled at his clothes and asked, "Why do you let Jiaojiao live outside? It's very dangerous out there. Many people know that she is your sister. Who can guarantee that they won't have bad intentions."

Qiao Xi was still worried that Huo Sijiao would be used by those people.

Huo Xingzhou passed the warm water to her mouth and said, "I have sent people to protect her. As long as her life is not threatened, it's fine. As for the rest, it's time to let her experience the dangers of the world."

"How can you be such a brother?"

Qiao Xi complained softly.

Huo Xingzhou twitched his lips and said, "She came here to chase after Shen Xuanzhi. If the eldest daughter of the Huo family chases after a man, she will get hurt sooner or later. We can't persuade her about this. We can only let her give up on her own."

"How do you know Shen Xuanzhi is not a good match?"

"He and I are both men, I know what he is thinking."

Shen Xuanzhi is aloof and proud, but he has a sense of inferiority in his bones. He always longs for the existence of a little sun like Jiaojiao, but he is afraid of being burned by the light.

When a person who has lived in the darkness of hatred for more than 20 years suddenly sees the dazzling sun, his first reaction is to close his eyes.

Instead of basking in the morning light!

Huo Xingzhou reached out and gently pinched the tip of her nose: "There are better candidates than Shen Xuanzhi. But I won't interfere with her feelings. Let's see what fate will choose."

Qiao Xi asked: "Who is the better candidate?"

Huo Xingzhou curled his lips and said, "You'll know then."

Qiao Xi pouted a little dissatisfiedly, and another question came to her mind.

She raised her eyes to look at him and asked.
