Chapter 151 Is There a Misunderstanding?
After sitting for about half an hour, Lu Xia saw that Huo Yanxi was still busy, so he stood up and walked to the desk, "Brother, you go ahead and do your work. I should go home too."
Huo Yanxi paused, then put down the pen and looked up at Lu Xia. His handsome face showed an apologetic expression. "I'm busy today. Why don't you wait for me for a while? When you're done with your work, can we go out for dinner together?"
Lu Xia's eyes flickered slightly, and she just smiled and shook her head, saying sympathetically: "It's okay, you have to be busy with work, and it's okay to have dinner another day. I'll leave first."
After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for Huo Yanxi to say anything else. She turned around and walked towards the door, her back looking a little lonely.
Huo Yanxi watched her disappear at the door, then he leaned heavily on the chair, pressed his fingers between his brows, and was silent for a long time. He then raised his head and reached out to take the phone next to him.

Huo Tingrui, who had just finished his work, saw two missed calls from Lu Xia on his phone. He swiped his fingertips across the screen, as if thinking about whether to call back.
At this moment, his cell phone suddenly rang, interrupting his thoughts. Seeing that it was his eldest brother calling, he pressed the answer button without hesitation.
"Hey, brother, what do you want from me?"
Huo Yanxi thought that the second brother might be busy and might not answer the call so quickly, so he was stunned when the call was connected. Then he said, "It's nothing. Xia Xia came to see me just now and asked when we can go out for dinner together."
Huo Tingrui heard this, combined with the missed call just now, the look between his eyebrows suddenly became a little dull, "I'm afraid it's not possible to have dinner together. I've been very busy recently and can't spare the time."
Huo Yanxi was silent for two seconds, then asked, "Tingrui, do you have any misunderstandings about Xia Xia?"
Huo Tingrui was stunned for a moment while holding the phone. "Misunderstanding? I don't quite understand what this means."
"Last time, because of the incident with Old Lady Yang, it was indeed my preconceived misunderstanding of my younger sister, which may have caused a misunderstanding between Yaoyao and Xia Xia..."
Huo Tingrui didn't need to listen any more when he heard this. He already understood what his elder brother meant by the question just now, and he interrupted directly: "Xia Xia called me twice about half an hour ago. I was in court just now, and my phone was always with my assistant."
After a pause, Huo Tingrui's voice was slightly heavy. "Besides, my younger sister has never mentioned Xia Xia in front of me, so there is no such thing as misunderstanding or not."
In the past, he thought that his adopted sister was just spoiled and had no bad intentions, but after seeing this today, he now has a new respect for her.
Shaking his head, Huo Tingrui didn't want to deepen the gap between them because of Lu Xia, so he just said, "Brother, if you don't have anything else, I'll hang up first. The client is still waiting for me to say something."
Huo Yanxi could hear the second brother's impatience, but he didn't say anything more. "It's okay, go and get busy."
After hanging up the phone, Huo Yanxi sat there for a long time without moving.

After Lu Xia went downstairs, he took a taxi and went straight back to the Lu family villa.
As soon as I entered the house, He Xiaoman's slightly accusatory voice came over, "What did you do after school this afternoon? The driver just called and said that he waited for you at the school gate for a long time but didn't see you, and the phone call couldn't get through."
Lu Xia looked at He Xiaoman and said perfunctorily without much mood: "I went back to the training room and put my phone in my bag, so I didn't pay attention."
