Qin Ya saw her packing and thought that she was going to escape. She asked with her sharp voice, “Where are you going?”

“I’m staying in school,” said Mo Zhu calmly.

“What did you say? Are you angry that your uncle didn’t arrange for you to enter Jingyang High School?”

“Where can a girl like you go? Are you going to be a street thug? Isn’t the Fang family good to you? We provide food and clothing for you. You’re about to marry into the Huo family, so stop fooling around.”

“Tomorrow, I’ll get your uncle to arrange for you to study at Second High School and you can study there.”

Mo Zhu was unmoved by Qin Ya’s accusation.

How could Qin Ya let her leave? She still needed her to marry into the Huo family. If she wasn’t with the Fang family, what would happen if the Huo family came to ask for her? She quickly stopped her.

“Get out of the way.” Mo Zhu’s expression was somewhat cold. She looked at the person blocking in front of her impatiently.

“Don’t think that I’m afraid to touch you.”

“Why? Are you still going to hit me?”

Qin Ya had already forgotten her image as a rich lady and started to throw a tantrum.

“Don’t forget who’s taking care of your grandmother. Do you know how expensive the First Hospital’s medical fees are? If you leave now, you’ll be killing your grandmother!”

“Don’t threaten me with my grandma!”

Qin Ya saw Mo Zhu’s gaze and felt a little apprehensive. The fear from the last time was still fresh in her memory.

“Someone, stop her.” Qin Ya called for a few bodyguards to block Mo Zhu’s way.

“Do you think this is your grandmother’s house? Do you think that you can come and go as you please? You haven’t married into the Huo family.”

At this moment, Mo Zhu was already rather impatient and was about to take action. “Hey, what are you doing?”

Xu Huan’s carefree voice suddenly sounded behind them.

Qin Ya turned around and asked in horror, “Why is Young Master Xu here?”

“I’m here to pick up sister-in-law. Seems like it’s not the right time for me to be here. Why are you still throwing knives and guns at sister-in-law?”

“Does the Fang family have any respect for the Huo family?” Xu Huan’s tone suddenly turned harsh.

“Is this how you treat Young Madam Huo?”

Qin Ya panicked. “No, Young Master Xu, this girl is running away from home. I’m disciplining her.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“I won’t trouble you to discipline Young Madam Huo.”

Then, he said to Mo Zhu, “Let’s go, sister-in-law.”

Qin Ya didn’t dare let the bodyguards stop her. They left the Fang manor in no time.

“Thanks,” Mo Zhu said to Xu Huan.

“What are you thanking me for, sister-in-law? We’re all family. Let’s go, Master Huo is waiting for you.”

Mo Zhu got into the car and saw Huo Xuan. Huo Xuan wasn’t wearing a mask.

The man leaned against the back of the chair. When Mo Zhu enter the car, she was met with a pair of amorous eyes.

Mo Zhu only exchanged a glance before looking away.

“Ms. Mo hasn’t eaten yet, right? Let’s go to the garden.” The last sentence was directed at Xu Huan.

“Okay.” The mighty young master of the Xu family was reduced to a driver. If he told others, not many would believe him, but he was enjoying himself.

Mo Zhu looked out the window, the light occasionally falling on her face.

Her fair skin looked fragile under the sunlight, but it made her look more unreal than usual.

The girl raised her hand to block it, her dark eyes narrowing impatiently.

“It seems like you ate the medicine I gave you,” Mo Zhu suddenly said.

The two people in the car had a subtle reaction to Mo Zhu’s words. Xu Huan originally wanted to ask about Mo Zhu’s background, but he would not probe rashly.

However, he did not expect Mo Zhu to speak first. Could it be that she knew the value of this bottle of medicine?

“You mean the De-condensation Pill?” Xu Huan hurriedly replied.

The young woman’s brows furrowed slightly as if she was pondering over what De-condensation Pill Xu Huan was talking about.

When Xu Huan saw Mo Zhu’s reaction, he gave up on what he wanted to continue saying.

It was very quiet in the car, and the girl’s soft breathing could be heard.

However, as they passed by a bustling city, the car jolted violently. A man’s hand appeared on Mo Zhu’s wrist. It was well-defined and had a hint of warmth. In just a few seconds, he let go.

“Sorry.”

They could still hear Xu Huan cursing in front of them. Huo Xuan retracted his hand and continued resting.

Soon, the car stopped at the entrance of the garden. The two of them brought Mo Zhu into the private room.

After ordering, the three of them looked at each other in silence.

“Your poison will invade your lungs in five months.”

The young lady’s unhurried words broke the silence, but it also released a thunderous sound.

Huo Xuan froze.

Xu Huan, on the other hand, was no longer as slovenly as before. His questioning gaze landed on Mo Zhu.

“How did you know that?”

The young girl was still as nonchalant as ever. She was not frightened by Xu Huan’s abnormal behavior.

Mo Wu, who was standing at the door, became alert when he heard this.

She actually knew all of this. Huo Xuan’s true physical condition was only known to the Huo family’s private doctors, and they would definitely not betray Huo Xuan to tell Mo Zhu about this. Also, the De-condensation Pill was definitely not something that could be casually given away, yet Mo Zhu had given it away like candy. Mo Zhu’s words made it impossible for others to treat her as a little girl who came from the countryside who knew nothing.
