Chapter 355: Huo Jinnan, I’ve got a score to settle with you! (2)_1
Huo Jinnan remained silent as he watched the little one lead Che Huan by the hand and leave, glancing at the direction of the ward, wondering what means Grandfather and Father still had to stop him and Che Huan from marrying.
He was actually looking forward to it!
————Yunqi Academy————
Near the European-style flowerbeds at the hospital, Che Huan and the little one ran into Huo Jinxue and Huo Jinbei.
Huo Jinxue, being naturally optimistic, felt after hearing Shen Mubai’s words that her mother’s illness wasn’t a big issue anymore. With her second brother and Dr. Shen there, her mother would surely be fine.
Having finally caught Che Huan when Huo Jinnan was not around, her gossiping heart was ignited.
"Second sister-in-law, did Second Brother take you back to the old house during Dragon Boat Festival last time?"
Upon hearing this, Che Huan’s face flushed—she had thought that no one knew about that time, but she didn’t expect Huo Jinxue would ask!
Seeing Che Huan’s embarrassment, Huo Jinxue chuckled, "That morning, I woke up a bit early and just happened to see my second brother holding you as you left the backyard."
Holding?
After hearing this, the little one frowned. At that time, Huo Jinnan was already secretly together with Huanhuan?
He pursed his lips, feeling increasingly indignant inside!
As he thought back to that day, why hadn’t he seen Huanhuan?
Just then, he heard his little aunt’s voice again.
"Second sister-in-law, were you in my second brother’s room all that day?"
This question—
"..."
Che Huan looked at Huo Jinxue, unsure of how to respond. To say no was obviously contradicted by having been seen, to say yes would be—
She remained silent.
The little one stealthily glanced at Che Huan, and seeing her flushed face, felt even worse.
It seemed that his little aunt was telling the truth! Huanhuan was indeed in Huo Jinnan’s room that day. Remembering that Uncle Gu had gone downstairs to report a noise from Huo Jinnan’s room, and Gu Jizhou had followed upstairs, Huanhuan must have been in Huo Jinnan’s room at that time, right?
And to think they said it was the platoon leader—always deceiving!
The despicable Huo Jinnan must have hidden Huanhuan in his room.
Recalling that his little aunt said she saw Huo Jinnan holding Huanhuan as they left the next day, could it mean Huo Jinnan and Huanhuan spent the night together? One room, one bed?
So, Huo Jinnan had been after Huanhuan even then.
Realizing that he’d been kept in the dark and knew nothing, the little one sat there with an extremely odd expression on his face!
Che Huan noticed and looked down at him, "What’s wrong, don’t you feel well?"
The little one shook his head, feeling gloomy inside, his face showing the aggrieved look of a baby with a bitter heart who wouldn’t speak up.
Che Huan observed him for a moment and seemed to understand, wanting to laugh but not daring to. Instead, she bent down and kissed the little one’s round cheek.
The little one sat there, his lips pursed, thinking, Huo Jinnan, I’ve got a bone to pick with you!
He looked towards Huo Jinxue, ears perked up to listen.
Huo Jinxue, after pestering Che Huan for a while without digging up any juicy gossip, felt very unsatisfied and started to inquire in a roundabout way.
The little one gradually couldn’t take it anymore and glanced at her, "Little auntie, a girl shouldn’t be so nosy. Shouldn’t you be more concerned about Grandmother’s condition!"
When her mother’s illness was mentioned, Huo Jinxue looked at the little one and flicked his forehead hard, "With your dad around, no big deal is really a problem, right? Didn’t we say that everything will be fine once we find a suitable heart for the transplant?"
The little one rolled his eyes at Huo Jinxue, "Where’s it that easy to just find a suitable heart?"
Huo Jinxue was taken aback, as if realizing it really wasn’t that easy.
She looked at Huo Jinbei, "Third brother, is it hard to find?"
Huo Jinbei nodded, "It’s hard to find."
