644 The words she said
Huo ting had reported to su Mianmian in advance that he would be meeting Yao Xinyi again today.
So, other than glaring at him when they were going out, su Mianmian didn’t feel any other difficulties.
However, he knew that he had to be more careful today. At the very least, he couldn’t let Yao Xinyi get too close to him.
After all, a little lamb could also turn into a little wild cat when pushed too hard.
......
They didn’t know what was wrong with the weather today. It was still sunny in the morning, but after they went up the mountain, it became gloomy. There were dark clouds floating in the sky, as if it was going to rain.
Huo ting asked the driver to wait at the foot of the mountain, and he and Yao Xinyi went up the mountain.
Today, Yao Xinyi was wearing a navy blue linen dress that fluttered in the wind. She had a beige scarf around her neck and a pair of comfortable white leather shoes.
Her expression was dignified and solemn, with a hint of sadness.
“The road is finally fixed.” Yao Xinyi said softly, ” I still remember the first time I came here. This road wasn’t built yet, especially when we reached the middle of the mountain. It was all muddy and very difficult to walk on.
Huo ting turned to look at her and showed a speechless look.
Of course, she didn’t see it.
Even if he had to find a topic, he should find something stronger. Many rich people were buried on this mountain, so the road up the mountain was specially repaired. The stone steps were specially cleaned by people, so they were particularly clean.
Both sides of the road were lined with green trees, and the air was fresh with a gentle breeze.
Yao Xinyi turned to look at Huo ting and said,”Ting, do you know that this is not my first time here?”
Huo ting glanced at her lightly and didn’t speak.
He suddenly realized that this person did not play her cards according to common sense. He did not understand what she meant by this.
Yao Xinyi looked at his expression and suddenly laughed. ting, you don’t believe me, right? ”
Huo ting,”hehe.”
He was just speechless. Thank you.
“I still remember that I came here with uncle Huo. He brought me here to see the land he bought.” Yao Xinyi sighed, feeling rather sad.
I still remember him telling me with a smile that he was a man who liked all beautiful things. He had seen many beautiful sceneries while he was alive, and beautiful people had to be buried in a place with beautiful scenery when they died.
She looked around, as if she was reminiscing about something, and also as if she was mourning over something.
Huo ting,”hehe.”
He didn’t understand Yao Xinyi’s world. He suddenly thought that if he went back earlier, he would have asked the little lamb to make him strawberry cake. Yesterday’s strawberry cakes were all finished by Dongdong and the others, and he didn’t even get a single piece.
Yao Xinyi said a lot of things. She secretly looked at Huo ting and saw that he didn’t respond to her words, so she couldn’t help but call out sadly.
“Uncle Huo, I’m here to see you, Yingluo!”
Huo ting thought about the cake and was shocked by her voice.
He turned around to look at her and saw that she was crying silently again.
If she wasn’t clear, she would really think that she had seen a ghost.
“Let’s go,” he said. He interrupted her.
......
The two of them arrived in front of Huo Zhenyuan’s tombstone. At this time, the sky seemed to be even gloomier. The sound of the wind blowing was whimpering, as if someone was crying.
Yao Xinyi walked forward and slowly knelt on the ground.
“Uncle Huo, Xinyi’s not well. It’s so late to see you.” Yao Xinyi looked at Huo Zhenyuan’s name on the tombstone. Her eyes turned red, and there were tears in her eyes.
“I’m sorry, Yingluo. I’ve been locked up in the research room doing research and didn’t care about what happened outside. If it wasn’t for father suddenly finding Yingluo, I wouldn’t have known about this.”
She finally couldn’t hold it in and cried out. It was a very sad cry, and it didn’t seem like she was pretending.
“Uncle Huo, I’m sorry. Please don’t blame me, okay? I really didn’t mean to come and see you so late.”
As she cried and spoke, her tears wet the marble floor in front of her, quickly forming a large watermark.
After a long while, her sobs turned into soft sobs.
uncle Huo, dad was very sad when he found out about what happened to you. He even fell seriously ill because of this and was only discharged a few days ago. Otherwise, I could have come to see you earlier.
Yao Xinyi took out a handkerchief from her pocket and wiped the tears on her face.
I’m sorry, uncle Huo, ” she said with a smile. you don’t like women crying, but I’m still crying at this time. Don’t laugh at me.
She took a deep breath to calm herself down. uncle Huo, I’ve brought you a gift. You’ll like it.
She was like a child presenting a treasure. She took a wooden box from her side and placed it in front of the tombstone.
“Uncle Huo, do you want to take a guess?” Yao Xinyi said in a light tone.
Unfortunately, no one would answer her. If someone really answered her, she would probably be scared to death.
alright, ” Yao Xinyi said with a smile. I know that uncle Huo doesn’t like it when people leave you hanging. I’ll give you the answer.
She slowly opened the wooden box, and a faint dazzling light was revealed from the wooden box. It turned out to be an exquisitely made Chinese Chess.
From the texture of the Jade, the quality of this chess set was not comparable to Huo ting’s.
Although it looked good on the surface, one could see the difference if they observed carefully.
Huo ting looked at her performance expressionlessly and didn’t speak.
“Uncle Huo, I know you like to play chess, so I got someone to make this Jade chess set for you. Although it’s not as good as the one you left for ting, it’s still pretty good. I hope you like it. ”
She quietly looked at the Chinese Chess and said after a long while, ” “Uncle Huo, do you still remember the last game we played?”
Yao Xinyi chuckled as she poured out the Chinese Chess pieces. She began to arrange them one by one, and in the end, she actually managed to lay out an Endgame.
She looked at the game in front of her and showed a sad expression. She said to Huo ting, ” ting, can you play this game with me on behalf of uncle Huo? ”
Huo ting said, ” I can’t.
He was not out of his mind to play chess in a Cemetery.
After Yao Xinyi heard his words, she chuckled as if she had already guessed that Huo ting would say this.
She turned to face the tombstone and said, ” uncle Huo, I still remember that I lost that game of chess. I was very unconvinced at the time and said that I would marry ting in the future and become your daughter-in-law to compete with you again.
Huo ting,”hehe.”
She sighed and said,”I just didn’t expect that things would change so much in such a short time.” Uncle Huo, why did it happen so suddenly? I still remember calling you before. At that time, you sounded perfectly fine.”
Huo ting stood behind her expressionlessly, listening to her murmuring in a daze.
Perhaps Yao Xinyi was really sad, or perhaps she was just acting.
But who could say for sure?
