Mother Huo's overly warm and affectionate manner left Ye Fanxing completely bewildered.
Seeing that Ye Fanxing seemed a little lost, Huo Dongfang reached out and pulled her close, saying in a deep voice, "Mom, you scared Xingxing."
Huo's mother glared at Huo Dongfang. If it weren't for that girl from the Lu family helping them out, they wouldn't have known that Huo Dongfang had a fiancée.
She likes stars, so cheer up, be enthusiastic, what's wrong?
"Huo Dongfang, put the luggage in the car."
Mrs. Huo was wearing a trendy dress, leather shoes, and glasses perched on her nose.
Her hair was a trendy medium-length curly style, and even without makeup, she still exuded an elegant and intellectual beauty.
"Xingxing, are you tired from the flight? Let's get in the car and talk slowly."
Mrs. Huo pulled Ye Fanxing into the black sedan parked by the roadside.
Huo Dongfang opened the passenger door and sat down directly.
The more Huo's mother looked at Ye Fanxing, the more she liked her.
It's probably because we clicked.
Of course, it's also possible that because of Lu Xiangrong as a comparison, Huo's mother felt that her son must have been incredibly lucky to have such a lovely and obedient fiancée as Ye Fanxing.
"Mom, how serious is Grandma's illness?"
When Huo Dongfang was young, his parents were both busy with work, so he was basically raised by his grandmother.
Hearing that Grandma Huo was ill, Huo Dongfang was extremely anxious.
"You'll find out when you get home."
Huo's mother didn't bother answering Huo Dongfang's questions. Instead, she held Ye Fanxing's hand affectionately, as if afraid that her son's fiancée would run away.
"Xingxing, what are your plans for the future? How about you study at Tsinghua University or Beijing University of Technology?"
Mrs. Huo thought that if Ye Fanxing studied at these two universities, she could live at home.
It's fine if she doesn't want to live at home; they can find her a place nearby. She just needs to focus on her university studies.
As for Huo Dongfang's illness, they have never given up looking for a treatment plan.
Once Huo Dongfang's illness is cured, the young couple can live happily ever after.
“Mom, Xingxing will attend military academy,” Huo Dongfang answered for Ye Fanxing.
Mrs. Huo praised him again, saying, "Going to military school is great. Your father is a soldier, so you can follow in his footsteps..."
Ye Fanxing belatedly sensed something unusual about Huo's mother's enthusiastic attitude.
Did Huo's mother know about her "temporary engagement" with Huo Dongfang?
Given Huo's mother's current attitude, wouldn't she be a perfect accomplice in helping her complete her mission?
"Aunt……"
Mrs. Huo coughed lightly and said, "Why are you calling me 'Auntie'? It's too formal. You can either call me 'Auntie' like my brat does, or you can call me 'Auntie'."
"Auntie." Ye Fanxing readily changed her address.
Mrs. Huo smiled broadly and said, "Xingxing, the first time I saw you, I felt a sense of closeness to you. Is he good to you?"
"Auntie, Uncle Huo treats me very well."
Ye Fanxing spoke the truth sincerely.
"If it weren't for Uncle Huo, my life would have been ruined by them."
Hearing Ye Fanxing praise Huo Dongfang like that, Huo's mother was secretly pleased, but on the surface she still looked disgusted and said, "That's all he's good for."
Huo Dongfang rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache. "Mom, I'm your son."
"I never said you weren't my son, why are you in such a hurry?"
Mrs. Huo held Ye Fanxing's hand, looking at the calluses on Ye Fanxing's hand, and thinking about what they had learned before.
He couldn't help but feel a deep contempt for the Cheng family.
How could they treat Ye Fanxing like this?
That's utterly heartless and ungrateful.
They deserve this fate.
Looking at Huo's mother's intellectual and elegant face, Ye Fanxing couldn't help but think of her "death" in the original novel.
The story unfolds from the perspective of Huo Yanchen, the male protagonist of the original novel, because Huo's mother disapproves of his marriage to the female protagonist.
Huo's mother died unexpectedly in a car accident.
He feigned tears, lit an incense stick, and then became intimate with the female protagonist.
In reality, this car accident was also a case of him using someone else to do his dirty work.
He knew perfectly well that the female lead's younger brother was a yandere, yet he still deliberately told him that Huo's mother did not approve of their marriage, belittling the female lead as unworthy of the Huo family's status.
This led the female lead's brother to harbor murderous intent, and he even deliberately covered up the evidence when Huo Dongfang discovered there was something wrong with the car accident.
Everything that happened to the male protagonist, Huo Yanchen, made Ye Fanxing feel that he was an ingrate.
With her around now, she will definitely stop Huo Dongfang from adopting Huo Yanchen.
She would never allow Huo's mother to die an unexplained death like in the original novel.
"aunt."
Looking into Ye Fanxing's eyes, which shone like stars, Mrs. Huo asked softly, "Xingxing, what's wrong?"
How much longer until we get home?
Mrs. Huo smiled gently, "About five minutes."
Although Ye Fanxing already knew about the Huo family's background from the original novel's plot, she only realized how illustrious Huo Dongfang's family was when she stood in the Huo family's house in person.
The residents living in this courtyard house are all big shots from various industries.
Any one of them could be on CCTV's "News Broadcast".
"Xingxing, don't take your luggage." Huo's mother took Ye Fanxing's hand. "Come on, I'll take you to see Grandma."
From afar, Mrs. Huo called out, "Mom, Mom, we're back!"
Huo Dongfang had a vague feeling that something was wrong. Wasn't his grandmother supposed to be seriously ill?
In the quaint room, Grandma Huo instantly switched to a "sickly" state, covering her mouth with a handkerchief and coughing forcefully several times.
