“What’s wrong? Why aren’t you talking?” his companion asked worriedly.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Are you feeling unwell? Why don’t you switch with me? You should rest first.”

The two of them had just switched not long ago, but seeing that the man was uncomfortable, he still proposed the switch.

“No, I’m fine.” The man shook his head.

He kept recalling that gaze. As he looked at the telescope at his feet, he was actually a little afraid to pick it up again.

If he saw that gaze again, he felt that he might break down.

Perhaps he had already broken down.

“Can you continue now?” his companion asked worriedly.

Actually, previously, they only needed to understand Huo Chulan’s general location. There was no need to stare inside like this.

However, this time, it was because the main daughter of the Huo family had suddenly gone over. The Huo family had not arrived yet, so they were told to take note of the situation at all times and not let the young miss suffer.

“I think…” The man spoke with difficulty. “I think Young Miss is not an ordinary person.”

“What do you mean?”

“I was frightened by her gaze earlier.”

“Old Zhao, what kind of joke is this?” His companion laughed and said, “Young Miss is not even twenty years old. How can she scare you with just one look? Your joke isn’t funny!”

“No, I…” The man sighed suddenly. “Forget it. I’ll continue watching.”

With that, he set up the binoculars again.

Xing Jiuan had only taken a casual glance earlier.

She had always been very clear about being watched and followed. It was mainly because she had been practicing her five senses since she was young and had been on international missions for years. Sometimes, if she was not careful, she might lose her life in the next second.

Therefore, when she looked over, it was a subconscious action and her gaze was also subconscious.

It seemed to have frightened the guy!

She did not know where they were sent from!

There were really many people who paid attention to Huo Chulan!

Huo Chulan happened to look up just now. Unlike what the man had seen through the binoculars, she was the one who could sense it the most.

The change in Xing Jiuan’s aura and the things that were revealed in her eyes shocked her.

She wanted to retreat, but she sat on the sofa and had no room to.

In front of her was Xing Jiuan.

Xing Jiuan lowered her head and stared at her coldly. Her unrestrained gaze made one feel fear.

Huo Chulan did not dare to look into her eyes.

“Huo Chulan, is switching fates easy?”

Xing Jiuan spoke as if she was chatting casually. There was even a slight smile on her face, but it did not feel friendly at all.

“…I didn’t.” Huo Chulan was still struggling.

Xing Jiuan was too strange!

If she really admitted it, would Xing Jiuan… kill her?

She had a feeling that Xing Jiuan would strangle her neck ruthlessly at any moment and ask her if she wanted to die with a smile.

“It’s okay if you don’t admit it,” Xing Jiuan said softly. She sat down again and stared at Huo Chulan. “There’s someone who’s about to die. Do you think we can get some information out of him before he dies?”

“Forget it. I still have something on, so I won’t talk to you about it.” Xing Jiuan stood up and smiled. “You don’t have to send me off.”

“…”

After taking two steps, she suddenly turned around with a mocking expression.

“There’s something else I forgot to remind you about.”

“Huo Chulan, when I asked you about switching fates earlier, you should have answered that you didn’t understand what I meant. Instead, you quickly rebutted me by denying it.”

“So your lie is really awkward.”

“I think if you were to become an actor, no director would be willing to look for you.”

After saying this, Xing Jiuan slowly opened the door.

Huo Chulan was about to heave a sigh of relief when Xing Jiuan stopped at the door.

Four people from the Huo family were standing outside the door.

They looked like they had rushed over in a hurry. She only felt a little ironic when she saw the anxiousness on their faces.

“Why? I just stayed here for a while and you couldn’t wait to rush over?” Her gaze was not on anyone’s face, as if she was looking at a certain void. “Are you so worried that I’ll bully her?”

“Yan… Jiuan, we’re here to see you,” Madam Huo said quickly, worried that she would misunderstand.

“So, what do you want to do?”

Huo Chulan saw the Huo family members outside the door. She did not want to welcome them like before.

At this moment, she really wanted someone to help her close that door and lock those people outside.

However, Xing Jiuan obviously would not let her have her wish.

“Huo Chulan is inside.” Xing Jiuan took two steps back and made way.

The Huo family members stood at the door and looked at her expression, but they could not tell what Xing Jiuan was feeling.

If Xing Jiuan were to act, under certain circumstances, Lin Feng would probably think that she was a good seedling!

“Aren’t you coming in to see her?” Xing Jiuan spoke slowly and turned to look at Huo Chulan. “Hey, someone is here to see you.”

The Huo family members walked in.

Huo Jinqi, who was at the back, closed the door.

Huo Chulan stood up. She looked at the Huo family members who had arrived and felt a little flustered.

From the beginning to the end, she was not valued in the Huo family. She had always been aware of this.

At the moment, nothing had been completed. In fact, because of what had happened last time, she had been cut off from the Huo family. After that, this was the first time she had met the Huo family, and all of them had come.

Huo Chulan was flustered and afraid. She was alone now. What should she do?

There were four members of the Huo family, Xing Jiuan, and Huo Chulan. It was not a confrontation, but there was an indescribable atmosphere.

“Why aren’t you talking?” When Xing Jiuan saw that they were all silent, she decided to help them.

“If you guys aren’t talking, then I’ll talk,” Xing Jiuan said slowly as she looked at the Huo family.

“Don’t ask about me in the future.”

“Don’t bother me.”

“Please don’t meddle in my affairs.”

“And Huo Chulan, if you have any ideas about me…”

She suddenly lowered her voice and looked at Huo Chulan with an extremely cold gaze. She slowly walked to Huo Chulan’s side and leaned close to her ear. Her voice was extremely soft. “I will make you wish you were dead.”

Huo Chulan widened her eyes. Xing Jiuan looked at her eyes. “Do you understand?”

“I…”

Xing Jiuan took two steps back and looked at the Huo family before looking at Huo Chulan.

“You guys continue.”

With that, she turned to leave.

“Wait, Jiuan,” Huo Jinyuan suddenly said. His face was not as calm as usual.

Xing Jiuan turned around and seemed a little frustrated.

“What’s the matter?” Her attitude was as if she was facing someone she hated.

However, these people were related to her by blood, so she could not do anything.

Master had taught her to be kind. No matter how much she hated the Huo family, she could not do anything against her own morals.

She only knew how to use her mouth!
