Chapter 228 Borrowing a Daughter



After hanging up the phone, Huo Jiansheng drove to his sister Huo Peiqing's home.

Huo Jiansheng has four brothers and sisters in his family. He is the second oldest. He has an older brother Huo Jianguo, a younger brother Huo Jianping and a younger sister Huo Peiqing.

Huo Peiqing was a little surprised to see his second brother suddenly come to see him, and he teased, "What's the wind that brings you here today?"

Huo Jiansheng glanced at his sister and said with a smile: "Tornado!"

"Hey, this tornado is blowing here, what's going on?" Huo Peiqing joked.

"If I miss you, I can come to see you. Is that not okay?" Huo Jiansheng said unhappily.

"Stop it, you missed me? No one comes to see me for no reason. Tell me, what do you want to see me for?"

The sweet lie was ruthlessly exposed by his sister. Huo Jiansheng touched his nose in boredom and asked, "Where is Xinyu?"

Huo Peiqing's daughter Liu Xinyu is also eleven years old. He wants her to pretend to be Li Man's daughter. In any case, Li Man's parents have never seen Huang Duoduo.

Besides, Huang Duoduo and Li Man are having a falling out now. Even if she is allowed to go, it will be troublesome and it might make everyone unhappy.

In fact, Huo Jiansheng knew that the person the old man wanted to see most was not Huang Dehan, but the child.

"What do you want from Xinyu? She's studying."

Huo Jiansheng smiled and said, "Can I borrow your Xinyu for two days?"

"Lend me Xinyu?"

Huo Peiqing looked at Huo Jiansheng strangely, "Why are you borrowing my Xinyu?"

Huo Jiansheng cleared his throat somewhat unnaturally and said, "Something happened."

Huo Peiqing looked at him suspiciously and said, "If you don't explain clearly, I won't lend my daughter to you."

"Aren't you interested in a villa in Phoenix City? My second brother gave it to you. Now you can lend me Xinyu, right?"

Huo Peiqing's curiosity was immediately aroused by Huo Jiansheng. What could have made her second brother so generous as to give her a villa right away?

"No, I won't lend Xinyu to you unless you tell me the reason."

Huo Jiansheng was too embarrassed to tell his sister the truth, so he had to soften his tone, "Just stop asking so many questions, okay?"

"No!" Huo Peiqing refused.

The more Huo Jiansheng didn't tell her, the more interested she became and the more she wanted to know.

Huo Jiansheng knew that if he didn't give his sister a reason, she would not agree. He had no choice but to tell the truth: "I want Xinyu to pretend to be my friend's daughter."

Huo Peiqing was confused when he heard this. "Why would she pretend to be your friend's daughter? What about his own daughter? No, doesn't he know what his own daughter looks like?"

"Her father is seriously ill and the old man wants to see his children, but it is not convenient for her children to go, so she wants to find a child to go and comfort the old man." Huo Jiansheng explained succinctly.

Huo Peiqing was immediately attracted by the "he" that Huo Jiansheng mentioned. Was it a male "he" or a female "she"?

"Who is 'he'?" Huo Peiqing couldn't help but ask curiously.

Huo Jiansheng rolled his eyes at her and said impatiently, "I've already told you, do you want to lend it to me or not?"

Seeing that Huo Jiansheng was about to lose his temper, Huo Peiqing had to suppress his curiosity and said, "I can lend her to you, but I have to ask Xinyu's opinion. If she doesn't want to go with you, I can't do anything about it."

"Okay, let her out and I'll talk to her." Huo Jiansheng said.

Huo Peiqing had no choice but to ask the servant to bring Xinyu down.
