Seeing that he remained silent, Su Xixi assumed he was mute and shook her head with a sigh, saying, "You're quite handsome, but you can't speak properly. What a pity!"
How would you like to cook this rabbit? Hot pot? Boiled rabbit? Rabbit with chili peppers? Or rabbit hot pot?
How about we make a rabbit hot pot?
"Judging from your poor communication skills, you probably don't have many friends. I have two older brothers and a younger sister here. Let's make a rabbit hot pot together later and eat together, and also make some friends."
Susie walked ahead, carrying the rabbit with a proud and confident air.
Actually, seeing Qin Huan reminded her of her and Su Lei when they were still living at Su Quan's house.
Back then, Su Lei, like Qin Huan, had a deep and gloomy look on his face. She would also salivate at the delicious aromas wafting from Su Quan's kitchen.
But none of the carefully prepared dishes were for her; she and Su Lei could only eat what the servants left behind.
Sometimes the servants ran out of food and went hungry.
She felt that Qin Huan must also be an illegitimate child of one of the Qin family branches, and because he couldn't speak, he was bullied.
He must have been starving to be staring so intently at the rabbit in her hand, wanting to eat it.
Susie felt her reasoning was perfect, and her sympathy for Qin Huan grew even stronger.
She had only taken a few steps toward the kitchen when Su Xiaowu and Su Lei caught up, panting, followed by the little cuddly girl with her short legs.
Su Xiaowu couldn't help but complain, "Damn, Qianqian, you not only hurt your head, but you also made your motor skills even more developed! You're going to make me run myself ragged!"
Su Lei, however, noticed Qin Huan following behind Su Xixi and asked her, "Who is this person?"
"I don't know." Su Xixi answered calmly, "He can't speak, he must be mute. He kept staring at the rabbit in my hand, probably because he wanted to eat it. I gave him the rabbit, but he didn't take it, probably because he was afraid to kill it."
So, I plan to go to the kitchen, kill the rabbit, and make a rabbit hot pot to invite him to eat with me.
Su Xiaowu and Su Lei exchanged a glance: ...
Su Xiaowu stared at Su Xixi in shock, "You make hot pot?"
Su Xixi gave Su Xiaowu a disdainful look, "Of course not me. How can I, an injured person, take on such a great responsibility? Xiao Ruanruan should do it!"
Little Ruanruan, who had just caught up, stared at Qin Huan with her already large eyes wide open.
Is Qin Huan the mute person her sister thought he was?
But before she could expose Qin Huan, Su Xixi was already calling to her, "Little Ruanruan, come on, let's go to the kitchen to make rabbit hot pot."
Xiao He and the two bodyguards who were protecting them watched Qin Huan leave with Su Qianqian with suspicion. When did their fourth young master become mute? How come they didn't know?
Susie's scalpel spun rapidly, and in just three minutes, a lively rabbit had been gutted, its head removed, and its skin peeled off.
As Qin Huan watched her practiced movements, he suddenly thought of Tang Xue's severed tendons.
I heard it was a little girl who cut it off with a scalpel. Could it be this little girl in front of me?
He glanced at Su Xixi with a flickering look in his eyes.
Su Xixi, however, was completely oblivious and asked Xiao Ruanruan, who was standing next to her, "If Xiao Ruanruan is making hot pot, I'll cut it into bigger pieces!"
"Oh, okay!" Little Ruanruan replied somewhat slowly.
She was still trying to figure out what was going on with Qin Huan.
She pretended to be mute in front of her sister, followed along to freeload, but what was her purpose?
Moreover, although she had already found out the truth about what happened back then and sent it to Qin Huan, she was still unsure of Qin Huan's current attitude towards Tang Xue, and his attitude towards those who had sent Tang Xue to prison.
If Qin Huan still sees Tang Xue as his mother and sides with Tang Xue...
While her older sister was carefully chopping the rabbit into pieces, the little girl gave her older brother a look, signaling him to stay and watch over her sister.
She scurried over on her short legs, pulled Su Lei aside, and went to whisper to him in a corner.
After hearing Xiao Ruanruan reveal Qin Huan's identity, Su Lei frowned and looked at Qin Huan, "He's Tang Xue's son? And he pretended to be mute to deceive Qianqian, what is he trying to do?"
Little Ruanruan was also puzzled, "Little Ruanruan just doesn't understand, so Brother Su Lei, you should go and ask him."
Su Lei nodded and walked towards Qin Huan.
He was a head shorter than Qin Huan, and with his small face upturned, he said to Qin Huan with a serious expression, "Come with me, I have something to ask you."
Su Xixi chopped the rabbit into pieces and ordered Su Xiaowu to wash the rabbit meat clean and prepare the side dishes.
When the servants from the Qin family kitchen offered to help, she refused, declaring righteously that her injuries would only heal quickly if she ate vegetables personally washed by her husband.
Su Xiaowu also looked helpless.
He suddenly felt a little envious when he saw that Su Xixi had gained so many privileges after getting injured…
Su Xixi and Xiao Ruanruan squatted down together, looking at Su Lei and Qin Huan talking in the other corner, and asked in confusion, "Xiao Ruanruan, what is Su Lei doing?"
Why are you suddenly talking so much to a mute person?
Little Softie: "..."
"Sister, how do you know he's mute?"
"If he's not mute, why doesn't he say anything?"
Little Softie: "..."
She was conflicted about whether to tell her sister that Qin Huan was not only not mute, but also Tang Xue's son.
At this moment, Qin Huan had already walked over with Su Lei.
Xiao Ruanruan and Su Xixi quickly stood up.
