C7 It Was Obvious That He Wasn't Speaking the Truth

She reached out and covered her eyes, not wanting to let her tears fall. Memories of her childhood kept rushing into her mind, forcing Tong Xue to face this matter.

Huo Shaobai stood behind Tong Xue, as long as she spoke, he would help, but he never made a sound. He just looked at the chandelier in a daze, as if he was thinking about something he was afraid of. His action of subconsciously covering his eyes and showing her weakness was obvious.

"What's going on with you? Are you pretending to be pitiful?" Huo Shaobai was not used to her acting like this, so he could only speak slowly.

Tong Xue's body stiffened. She put down her hand and looked at Huo Shaobai, but she did not know what to say.

Tong Xue had fantasized about many scenes, but she had never imagined that when Huo Shaobai came back, it would be the scene of her mother asking for money. This was really out of her expectations.

But she also expected that it would be even stranger if her mother did not ask for money from her.

"If you need help, for the child's sake, I can help you. No matter how much money you can ask for, you can do it!"

It was all because of the child. Without this child, she was nothing. It was all because of the child. Tong Xue could not speak the bitterness in her heart. She could only look at Huo Shaobai with a bitter smile.

"If it is possible, I really do not like to hear you say these things." Tong Xue said self-deprecatingly.

Huo Shaobai also returned the sarcasm and said, "No 'if'. You just happen to need it. And your belly just happens to have my child."

A night of absurdity caused two people who did not belong to the same path to intertwine. Whether it was a tragedy or a comedy, Tong Xue undoubtedly chose the first one.

"Do as you see fit!" How much she gave and how she gave, Tong Xue really did not want to care anymore. Didn't she say it was because of the child? Alright, then let Huo Shaobai do as he pleased before the child was born. He was also willful this time. His mother wanted money. If Huo Shaobai wants to give money, then let Huo Shaobai give it to him. When the child was born...

The moment the child was born, it had nothing to do with her!

Tong Xue closed her eyes in grief, but Huo Shaobai could not see it. He just felt that it was a little unbelievable. He originally thought that Tong Xue would at least argue with him. But now it seemed that she seemed to be very powerless. Why was that?

According to what he knew, Tong Xue's mother's gambling debts had all been paid off. Recently, she did not owe any new gambling debts. Then why did she want this money?

Tong Xue seemed to know the use of this money. She originally did not want to give it to him but changed her mind because of his words? What was there that she did not know?

Huo Shaobai was curious about a woman. This curiosity made him want to know what she had been through in the past.

Why would she be afraid when she saw her father? Why would she be scared? Why would she be scared? Why would she be scared when she saw her father? Why would she be scared? Why would she be scared when she saw her father?

Huo Shaobai's curiosity was immediately piqued, but it was not enough to make him use his connections to investigate a woman who had only been with him for one night.

He just thought that he had never seen such a woman before, and that was why he had such a feeling.

"You should pay attention to your own mood. If you are not in a good mood, it will affect the child's development. I hope you understand." After saying that, Huo Shaobai did not continue to be in a daze with her. Instead, he walked to his own study and made a call, instructing to give the money to Tong Bi.

After giving her a hand, Huo Shaobai suddenly got someone to investigate everything about Tong Xue.

When he realized what he had done, Huo Shaobai did not seem to stop him. He was just thinking that it had nothing to do with him, but now he did it again. Huo Shaobai frowned and did not understand what he had done.

Huo Shaobai stayed in the villa with Tong Xue for an entire afternoon. In the afternoon, other than occasionally going out to see what Tong Xue was doing, he had been holding a video conference.

Tong Xue was very sensible and did not disturb him. She just sat quietly in the garden and occasionally ate the snacks or fruit juice made by the auntie.

Tong Xue knew that her mother's matter had been resolved. Seeing that she did not continue to call, she knew.

She did not remember when she hung up the phone call today. Perhaps it was her mother who hung up, or perhaps she accidentally hung up. But everything was no longer important. The relationship between her and Huo Shaobai had completely become a deal.

After thinking about it again, Tong Xue felt that she had thought too much. It was basically a deal from the beginning. She was chosen because she was pregnant, so she was qualified to stand here and talk terms with Huo Shaobai.

Was it because Zhang Qiang had forced her to call her again?

Tong Xue had always been unable to understand what kind of evidence her mother had been caught by Zhang Qiang. He had made her compromise time and time again, and had even come to her place to set up a trap. After being rejected by her, she began to ask her mother to call and play emotional cards. Tong Xue did not want to think too much about it. She wanted to wait for the delivery with peace of mind.

Since she could not escape, she might as well wait for the child to be born. However, human nature was that the more she had nothing to do, the more she would think about other things.

While Tong Xue was still in deep thought, she suddenly saw Jun Anran waving at her from the side of the fence.

Calculating the time, it should be almost time, right? But why did Jun Anran come over? Tong Xue looked at Huo Shaobai who was still in the middle of the meeting. She did not get up but chose to pretend that she did not see anything.

The memory that Jun Anran gave herself was too deep, but the Huo Shaobai at that time was also very scary. Comparatively, she was more afraid of Huo Shaobai.

Seeing that she was ignored by Tong Xue, Jun Anran's expression became ferocious for a moment. When she thought of her purpose of coming here, she returned to her especially gentle appearance and got someone to open the door for her.

Regarding her identity, the security did not dare to doubt it. After all, not everyone could pretend to be the young mistress of Jun family. After searching on the computer, the information was immediately found, and the consequences of disobeying was not something a small security guard like him could do.

Thus, he directly opened the door for Jun Anran and let her in.

Jun Anran did not enter the house but went straight to the garden to find Tong Xue.

"Miss Tong, you look very leisurely. Don't you feel bored? This kind of life of being kept in a cage should not be good!" Jun Anran continued to use the tone of first meeting, even if she wanted to reconcile with Tong Xue. But she could not act too excessively. Jun Anran had very good control over everything.

After that night, Tong Xue could not be said to not care about Jun Anran's sarcasm but at least she could remain calm.

"Miss Jun, is there something you need?" Thinking of Huo Shaobai's reminder, Tong Xue forced herself to calm down.

Jun Anran did not continue to speak, but walked around her. She sat opposite of Tong Xue's original seat and looked at the desserts on the table, as well as fruit juice, flower tea and other things. Her eyes flashed and she smiled, "Not bad. These days are very comfortable. I just don't know how long you can live." After saying that, he poured himself a cup of flower tea and drank it alone.
