C23 The Xi Family Went Bankrupt
Of course, the one who was most pleased with herself now was Bai Jinjin. Xi Xiaosu pulled Bai Jinjin away and advised her, "Keep a low profile."
However, Bai Jinjin laughed out loud, "That woman, she came to find trouble with me for no reason. Why didn't she go and fix her face?"
A brain was a good thing. One had to bring it out.
They were just about to go find food to eat when they came to a home-cooked house. Just as they ordered their dishes, Bai Jinjin received a phone call. Bai Jinjin's expression was serious.
"What's wrong?"
Bai Jinjin's hand, which was holding the phone, was trembling and her expression was ashen. She made an expression that made Xi Xiaosu feel at ease, but she did not hear her laughter as they ate.
Xi Xiaosu wouldn't force Bai Jinjin to say what she didn't want to say, but she could guess.
"Is it Hsu Qinghe?"
When Bai Jinjin heard this voice, her entire body seemed to have been shocked by lightning. She raised her head mechanically. From her expression, Xi Xiaosu knew that she had guessed right.
"He, what do you want?"
Bai Jinjin revealed a difficult expression. "He said he wants to see me."
There had been hope, there had been hope, and that was why he had been disappointed. He hadn't said anything when his mother had slapped him, and then he had been humiliated in front of his classmates.
But, why did he come looking for her?
Xi Xiaosu asked angrily, "Then are you going to see him?"
Bai Jinjin hesitated for a moment, then raised her eyes and said, "Yes."
Xi Xiaosu could not sit still anymore. She slammed the table and roared, "Why are you still going to see him? It doesn't matter if you don't see such a man."
Bai Jinjin picked up the clothes she had bought today, stood up, and was about to leave. "We still have some unfinished business."
In fact, she also wanted to see that person. Xi Xiaosu glared at Bai Jinjin and warned her with her eyes, "Don't go. What's the matter? When the time passes, it won't be a problem anymore."
Bai Jinjin forced a smile and gave Xi Xiaosu a look." Tell me, are you worried about me? Don't worry, I won't be bullied by him. Who am I? I won't let anyone hurt me."
Under Xi Xiaosu's worried expression, Bai Jinjin took her bag and left impatiently.
Xi Xiaosu shook her head helplessly. She couldn't even finish a bite of the unfinished food on the table.
She supported her head and looked into the distance. Her eyes were filled with worry for Bai Jinjin.
She was usually a carefree person. Her mind was actually very sensitive. She looked very open-minded on the outside, and she didn't care about anything. Her cynical appearance was actually very fragile in her heart.
She must have had that man in her heart before.
Just as she was thinking about this, a person sat in front of Xi Xiaosu. Song Yihuan had a disdainful and tsundere expression as she sat opposite Xi Xiaosu. She pretended to be concerned and asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"
Xi Xiaosu looked at the food in front of her that she had barely eaten and felt a little sick. But why did he care about her?
"What's the matter?"
Xi Xiaosu raised her eyelids slightly and looked at Song Yihuan with an extremely cold expression. To her, he was not even a stranger.
"Last night, Yue Rou went to find you. Why did she disappear today?"
He came here to ask about this.
"So you know what happened last night, don't you?"
Xi Xiaosu's burning gaze made Soong Yihuan a little scared. He did not dare to answer directly. He knew. Instead, he continued to ask, "What exactly is going on? Early this morning, the Xi family declared bankruptcy. I couldn't find Uncle Xi, Auntie, and Yue Rou no matter what."
"So, you know, that's what they're going to do to me?"
Under Xi Xiaosu's repeated questioning, Soong Yihuan could no longer hold it in. Xi Yuerou had told him everything, but he pretended not to know about it. Perhaps, in his heart, he hated that what he couldn't get, was best destroyed.
"That's their business. I'm asking you where they all went."
He even raised his voice, as if he wanted to suppress Xi Xiaosu with his voice. Xi Xiaosu looked at the person in front of her and said softly, "Are you concerned about Xi Yuerou now? You already have Lin Yuehuan by your side, and you still say you care about Xi Yuerou? "
The obvious ridicule made Soong Yihuan very uncomfortable, "That's a matter between her and me, it's not your place to interfere."
Xi Xiaosu chuckled and packed her handbag. Inside were the clothes she had just bought today.
She didn't want to stay here any longer. Whether he knew that Xi Yuerou was going to use that kind of method to deal with her, but he was indifferent, or whether he was now holding a woman's arm and asking about another woman, it all made Xi Xiaosu feel ashamed.
Xi Xiaosu directly ignored him. She didn't want to say anything, just wanted to leave.
Soong Yihuan saw that Xi Xiaosu was about to leave, but he did not get the answer he wanted. He reached out his hand and wanted to hold Xi Xiaosu's hand, but Xi Xiaosu cleverly dodged it. She even looked at the hand with some disdain.
Soong Yihuan felt completely embarrassed when he saw Xi Xiaosu like this. He clenched his fists and chased after her.
When Xi Xiaosu arrived at the door, she saw a man leaning against the side of a Maybach. His tall figure, coupled with his crossed long legs, attracted the attention of passersby.
When Xi Xiaosu saw Huo Jingyu, she felt stunned. Wow, such a man was really easy to seduce.
However, Huo Jingyu's expression was somewhat fierce. He strode forward, and Xi Xiaosu found it strange. A moment later, she felt a gust of wind blow past her ear.
Xi Xiaosu stood there in a daze. She slowly turned her head and saw Soong Yihuan attacking her from behind.
And his sneak attack punch landed on Huo Jingyu's palm. Huo Jingyu tightened his grip, and Soong Yihuan was now screaming in pain.
Xi Xiaosu's body moved stiffly to the side and looked at the expressions of the two men in front of her. One was like a god descending, and the other was filthy. If Bai Jinjin was here, she would definitely laugh at her. How could she look at men so poorly before?
"You want to die?"
Huo Jingyu squeezed Soong Yihuan's fist, and even from a distance, Xi Xiaosu could hear the sound of bones rubbing against each other. It could be seen how much strength Huo Jingyu used.
Soong Yihuan grimaced in pain. At this moment, there were some stars in his eyes, and he could only hope that this feeling would lessen. However, he couldn't even speak. He could only mutter, "It hurts, it hurts."
Huo Jingyu's cold tone was filled with disgust as he asked, "My woman, if you want to make a move, have you asked me?"
Soong Yihuan's body was being pressed lower and lower. His knees were bent, and he seemed to be kneeling on the ground. Huo Jingyu shook off his fist in disgust, wiped his hands with a handkerchief in disgust, and warned, " Don't let me see you within ten steps of Xi Xiaosu. Be responsible."
Soong Yihuan did not dare to say anything in the face of such a naked threat. Huo Jingyu was someone that no one in the entire A City dared to offend, not to mention that his own family's current status in A City was not even one percent of his.
Soong Yihuan tactfully took a step back. Huo Jingyu wanted to pull Xi Xiaosu away, but Xi Xiaosu stopped in her tracks.
She walked in front of Soong Yihuan with a face full of disdain.
"Why are you asking Xi Yuerou like this? If you love her, you ought to stop her from doing things that hurt her. If you love her, you ought not to hold hands with other women for some purpose."
Xi Xiaosu didn't know where she was or how she was doing right now.
Soong Yihuan's eyes slowly became smaller and smaller, until finally he lowered his eyes and could not see his light. No one knew what he was thinking.
Xi Xiaosu did not know whether he loved or not. Her matters were not over yet, so why should she care about those people?
"In the future, no matter where we meet, I will treat you as if you have never appeared. You are like an object, do you understand?"
With that, Xi Xiaosu strode forward, holding Huo Jingyu's hand as she walked away.
In the car, Huo Jingyu sat on the leather seat, motionless, like a statue. Xi Xiaosu leaned lazily against the window, watching the lights fly past her eyes." What are you looking at?"
Xi Xiaosu shook her head." I'm just a little bored. "
The window was open so wide, but she didn't mind the cold.
Huo Jingyu reached out and grabbed someone's arm. Xi Xiaosu fell backwards and smashed into a meat wall.
Huo Jingyu lowered his head, exhaled softly beside her ear, and asked, "Is it so boring to be with me?"
Xi Xiaosu looked at his deep eyes, which were clearly filled with playfulness. If she said she wasn't, wouldn't that make her seem too unreserved? If she did, then she didn't dare to imagine what kind of punishment she would receive tonight.
Xi Xiaosu reached out her hand to support Huo Jingyu's head. Her hand gently touched his earlobe, and she leaned her head over. Originally, she only wanted to whisper, but his earlobe had an alluring taste to it. Xi Xiaosu couldn't help but take a light bite and smiled. "Guess."
Well, that seemed even less reserved.
When Xi Xiaosu thought of this, her face turned red. Huo Jingyu, travel-worn, had rushed over to pick her up and bring her home.
Huo Jingyu looked at the little woman reclining in his arms and chuckled. "I don't guess."
Would he be so kind? When did he change his personality? Xi Xiaosu blinked at Huo Jingyu in disbelief. She asked curiously, "If I were bored, what would you do to keep me from being bored?"
Huo Jingyu looked at the naive Xi Xiaosu and couldn't help but laugh. He stretched out his palm and started to attack Xi Xiaosu's waist. After so many days of interaction and intimate contact, Huo Jingyu still knew where Xi Xiaosu's sensitive area was.
Well, the waist is a sensitive spot for most people.
