Huo Tingâs thinking is right, and there is somebody whoâs trying to sow discord.
But heâs not quite sure yet who it is.
He thought about the possibility of Song Yunxuan.
But Song Yunxuan is not local and has no help, she wouldnât be able to do it.
At this point, he canât figure out who is trying to make Xiao and Huo become enemies.
After sharing his thoughts on the matter as the eldest son, he sends his father to rest.
Then he heads to the Xiaos and is going to make nice with them.
The Harbor city is now in a mess.
Huo Ting has no way to find Song Yunxuan, but Xiao Luo finds Song Yunxuan with great ease.
Song Yunxuan waits for him on the first floor of the hotel, she walks up to greet him after he comes in, âThis hotel is not easy to find, isnât?â
Xiao Luo laughs. âItâs not easy. If you didnât leave a message, I would have no idea youâre here.â
Song Yunxuan leads him to the hotel elevator and says, âSorry, I left your home without telling you last time, and I broke your plate.â
Xiao Luo smiles at her with relief in his eyes. âItâs all right. Itâs just a plate, as long as youâre not in danger.â
Song Yunxuan presses the elevator button, the elevator slowly ascends, Xiao Luo looks a little blue, âI thought I wouldnât be able to see you anymore.â
âWhy?â
âI was really worried when I saw the plate broken on the ground,â he clutches his coat with his fingers tightly. âI thoughtâ¦I thought my grandfather had come to my house and made a mess, then took you away. I was so upset. â
Song Yunxuan sees the sad look on his face, she smiles softly, âYou think too much, I was just picked up by someone I know, I wasnât hurt at all.â
Chu Mochen has never hurt her, except that he would occasionally be difficult and stop her from doing what she wants to do.
At least he doesnât mean to hurt her.
He likes Gu Changge, so he treats and protects her as if she were Gu Changge.
Although sheâs not happy with what he does sometimes.
But he cannot be denied.
In the end, Chu Mochen has no malice against her.
Chu Mochen took her back, just to protect her and bring her back to Yuncheng.
Living in that apartment would really hurt someone, not Song Yunxuan, but Xiao Luo.
âDid anybody get hurt while you were in that apartment?â
Xiao Luo nods, âOccasionally.â
The elevator door opens and Song Yunxuan walks out.
Xiao Luo follows Song Yunxuan to the hotel room and walks in with her after she opens the door.
Song Yunxuan asks him to sit on the sofa first, then brings him fruit and drink.
Xiao Luo looks at the things on the table and is confused, âDid you get me here to talk?â
Song Yunxuan asks him, âDo you think itâs just a simple talk?â
âI donât think so,â Xiao Luo forces a smile.
Song Yunxuan nods, âThatâs good.â
Xiao Luo looks up at her, says with a sense of self-mockery, âYou know who I am, donât you?â
âThe eldest grandson of the Xiaos?â
âMm-hmm.â Xiao Luo confirms then takes a few sips of the beverage thatâs put in front of him.
Seeing him remain silent, Song Yunxuan says again after thinking, âI may have offended you asking you to be here and talk.â
âDid Chu Mochen bring you back?â
Xiao Luo looks at her as soon as she finishes talking.
Song Yunxuan sees a bit of hatred from Xiao Luoâs eyes. Just a little bit, but itâs there.
She answers, âI came back with him myself.â
âI thought he forced you back, that assholeâ He hates Chu Mochen, and he hated him the first time he saw him.
He had certainly expected that he would go to grandpaâs house, but when he saw him, he didnât even talk to him as if he was a fool.
He was the one who took Yunxuan away from his apartment and he still pretended to know nothing.
Even just thinking about this man makes him feel disgusted.
âIf that man is bad for you, you can come to me.â Xiao Luo looks at her seriously with a pair of amber eyes, âI would never treat a friend like that.â
âFriend?â Song Yunxuan smiles, her eyes are sparkling and gentle.
Xiao Luo nods, âMm-hmm.â
âSince you think of me as a friend, I want you to do me a favor. Would you like to help me?â
This is something that must be done by Xiao Luo and by him only.
If itâs not done by Xiao Luo, it wouldnât have a same result as she wants.
Xiao Luo is asked for a favor, and his face is startled: âCan I help you?â
âYes.â She is determined.
Xiao Luo looks very happy, âThen tells me. Iâll help you as long as I can.â
Hearing this, Song Yunxuan looks down and takes out a card from the small drawer under the glass table, âRemember the words by heart, then go to the detention center to meet Huo Qixiongâs wife and daughter.â
Xiao Luo looks at the folded card, puzzled with a frown.
He reaches out and takes up the folded piece of paper and unfolds it.
The young manâs eyes lay on the dense words, his clear eyes become gloomy, as if they were clouded and made the whole world quiet.
Song Yunxuan thought he would ask her something.
But Xiao Luo didnât say anything the whole time while he was reading. He folds it up quietly and puts it in his pocket then raises his eyes, âIâll help you, donât worry.â
His words make Song Yunxuan feel so relieved.
Song Yunxuan looks at him into his eyes, with a big smile on her face.
Although Xiao Luo is only sixteen years old, he understands the cruel social rules better than she thinks.
He should know what to do and what the consequences will be.
Of course, after eight years living in the Xiao family, he is no longer an innocent boy.
â¦
When Xiao Luo leaves, he sees Chu Mochen open the door.
Chu Mochen is surprised, he frowns and looks at Song Yunxuan.
Song Yunxuan leans at the door, the creamy knitted sweater on her slim body makes her look like a tea millet, delicate and gorgeous.
Xiao Luo takes a look at his face in calm, looking neither angry nor friendly.
The two pass by each other, Chu Mochen takes a quick glance at him.
Xiao Luo looks at him too, maybe itâs just an illusion, but the boy has a defiant smile on his face.
Chu Mochen is offended, he pauses.
After the boy left, Song Yunxuan closes the door.
âWhy did you get him here?â
Song Yunxuan, looks at Chu Mochen, stays calm, âAt this critical time, only he can give Huo family a deadly blow, right?â
Chu Mochen cannot refute, but looks at her coldly.
Xiao Luo looks different.
Different from the last time he saw him.
Chu Mochen watches Song Yunxuan take away the beverage cups on the table then sits on the sofa to eat the fruit, then walks up to her, âYou want Huo and Xiao to become enemies?â
Song Yunxuan raises her eyes, âIf not, are you going to fight with Huo for me?â
âNot as serious as you think.â
Song Yunxuan nods, âIndeed, it wouldnât be serious if you were only against Huo alone, but what if Xiaoâs two uncles took power and then fought against us together with Huo? Then weâll be doomed. â
Chu Mochen thinks for a while then says, âIt doesnât matter.â
As long as Song Yunxuan is proved to be the eldest granddaughter of Xiao family, Xiao family will not in any way give the power to Xiao Yu and Xiao Liang, because Lu Xia will help her.
Help her keep a foothold in the Xiaos, so that she can become an ally of the Lus.
With the help of Lu Xia, Song Yunxuan will never be in danger.
But Song Yunxuan has not yet known that the Lu family is on her side.
It seems that Song Yunxuan has not known that she is the eldest granddaughter of the Xiaos, nor has she recognized Mr. Xiao as her grandfather.
If so.
âLet Xiao Luo own his place in the Xiaos, then he will help me control Xiao family. Iâll go back to Yuncheng with you. How do you like that?â
Chu Mochen doesnât say anything, but looks straight at Song Yunxuan.
Since he says nothing, Song Yunxuan smiles and says to herself, âNo matter what you think, I feel good about it.â
Chu Mochen still doesnât respond, Song Yunxuan smiles again then leaves.
Xiao Luo left the hotel and was followed by the bodyguards.
At the corner of the street, Xiao Luo glances at the rear-view mirror on the right, he sees a car that looks rather unappealing but makes him very uncomfortable.
âMy two uncles just donât stop! Iâve said that I donât want grandpaâs inheritance, and they still send people to follow me.â He frowns impatiently, and he looks so annoyed.
He steps on the gas, the Lexus speeds up instantly.
The car rushes forward like a flash of lightning, and the bodyguard behind the car is taken by a surprise.
âThe young masterâs car suddenly speeded up, didnât he see us?â
âEven if he sees us, he wonât be able to get rid of us, the speed of this car isnât half bad.â
The bodyguards are getting angry. They still canât get close enough after miles of chasing, and their car is left behind by the Lexus further and further.
âHe remolded his car, otherwise it wouldnât be this fast.â
âYouâre kidding. The car has been kept in the warehouse. The second master and the third master have reduced the speed of the car.â
âThen how come heâs getting faster and faster now? Damn it! I canât catch up⦠â
The bodyguard holds the steering wheel, after a swift turn, Xiao Luoâs Lexus has been long gone on the seashore road ahead.
The bodyguard on the passenger seat is astonished, âWeâ¦We lost him?â
The bodyguard whoâs driving smashes his hand on the steering wheel and says, âThis little son of a bitch is deliberately getting rid of us!â
âDonât call him son of a bitch. Heâs the future heir to the Xiaos!â
âHeir?â The bodyguard laughs coldly, âas soon as the old man dies, his uncles will surely get rid of him. I donât think he will be the heir to the Xiaos.â
The bodyguard on the passenger seat frowns, but heâs suddenly stunned with his eyes wide open in fear as if something terrible happened outside the window.
