Huo Yanxi's eyes landed on Huo Yao's phone, but he did not reach out to take it. Moments later, he tilted his head sideways and said in a deep voice, "If you really didn't take Grandma Lu away, why did you hang up on the Lu family?"
"Isn't it normal to hang up on the Lu family? Little Yao's adoptive mother has always treated her badly. Why did she have to pick up her phone? What kind of logic is that? "asked Huo Tingrui calmly.
"Yeah, Second Brother is right. If it were me, I would have blocked them long ago, not to mention hanging up." Song Ning didn't have a good impression of the Lu family at the mention of them.
Huo Yanxi looked at Huo Tingrui with a complicated expression on his face. It was one thing for his parents to dote on Huo Yao, but even his smartest little brother...
Moments later, Huo Yanxi shook his head and said disappointedly, "I don't care how much you spoil her, but you have to account for what happened to Xiaxia's grandmother."
Huo Yanxi's eyes landed on Huo Yao. "Come with me to the Lu family's place. Since you didn't take Grandma Lu away, explain..."
Before he could finish his sentence, his phone on the coffee table rang. He paused and instinctively glanced at the caller ID on the screen.
Seeing that it was Lu Xia calling, Huo Yanxi did not continue the conversation. He walked over, picked up his phone, and answered the call. "Hello, Xiaxia..."
"Yanxi, I found Grandma. She went back to her hometown in Fu County alone. I'm sorry. My mom misunderstood Yaoyao. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have called you because I couldn't get in touch with Yaoyao. I hope I didn't cause any misunderstandings..."
On the phone, Lu Xia's voice was soft and weak, as if she was about to cry, full of regret and regret.
Huo Yanxi was holding his phone when he heard Lu Xia's words. He recalled how he had angrily questioned Huo Yao earlier, and his head started buzzing.
Did he misunderstand Huo Yao?
"... Yanxi, are you listening?" Lu Xia could not help asking cautiously and aggrievedly when Huo Yanxi did not speak for a long time.
Huo Yanxi closed his eyes and replied calmly. "Got it." Without saying anything else, he hung up the phone.
Lu Xia felt a little annoyed when she heard Huo Yanxi's last few words. She held her phone tightly for a long time before releasing it.
When Huo Yanxi looked at Huo Yao again, he was no longer as aggressive as before. He opened his mouth, but something seemed to be stuck in his throat. It was bitter and uncomfortable, and he could not say a word for a long time.
Huo Yao did not show much emotion on her face. When she met his complicated gaze, she said calmly, "It seems like you have figured out the truth."
"I …"
"I'll go upstairs first." Huo Yao did not give Huo Yanxi a chance to speak. She glanced at her parents and Huo Tingrui in the living room before walking up the stairs unhurriedly.
"Brother Yanxi, we all know that Lu Xia has always been close to you, but there's something I want to remind you. You need to know who's related to you by blood," said Huo Tingrui calmly before he went upstairs.
