Shuxin knew that Yao Huiqin was worried that she would fall. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Mom, I'm fine. The cobblestones are beautiful. They're uneven and have resistance. It's not easy to fall. The cement floor is even more slippery on a rainy day."
"I think so." Yao Huiqin nodded seriously. "Okay, I'll listen to you."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted and laughed all the way to the villa. Shuxin turned around and saw Huo Yanqing following behind her. She was puzzled. "Where's Dad and Sister-in-law?"
Huo Yanqing looked indifferent and found an excuse. "Dad said that he wanted to consult Sister-in-law about some work matters. They're talking at the bamboo forest. They'll be here in a while."
"Oh." Shuxin didn't suspect anything. She thought of something and her watery eyes lit up. "Yanqing, if Sister-in-law helps Dad with the company, do you think she'll be willing to do it? Dad's health hasn't been very good recently. Sister-in-law is so capable. If she helps, Dad will be much more relaxed. "
Huo Yanqing pinched his eyebrows. "Definitely not. She doesn't even want to go to the Huo Group. Why would she go to Lankang Company?"
"That's true." Shuxin was a little disappointed.
Huo Yanqing held Shuxin's hand and comforted her. "I'll help Dad. Don't worry."
"Can you?"
Huo Yanqing raised his eyebrows. "Are you doubting my ability?"
"No, I'm just worried that your body won't be able to take care of both sides."
"It's okay. A capable manager only needs to give advice. He doesn't need to do everything himself." It was a very arrogant statement coming from Huo Yanqing. However, it didn't make people feel disgusted. Instead, it made people trust him even more. It also made Shuxin feel more at ease.
Why did she like this man so much?
The one who made dirty jokes and was never serious.
The one who was arrogant and conceited.
The one who was mature and steady.
No matter which side, Shuxin liked him very much.
Huo Yanqing gently tapped the tip of Shuxin's nose. "Don't look at me like that."
"What do you mean?"
"Like you want to eat me."
Shuxin was speechless. Mom was still here. Why didn't this man look at the situation?
Yao Huiqin looked away and pretended not to hear anything, but the corners of her mouth unconsciously curved up.
…
In the bamboo forest
Shu Youkang's gaze landed on Jian Xi's face. This woman whom he had yearned for for twenty years was now standing in front of him. He had clearly thought of many things to say to her, but he couldn't say a single word at this moment.
Jian Xi stood there and looked at the green bamboo. After waiting for a while, she saw that Shu Youkang didn't speak. She took the initiative to say, "If there's nothing else, I'm leaving."
"Ruolan …" Shu Youkang called out to her. "Are you … doing well?"
"Before I met you, I was doing very well." Jian Xi's expression was cold.
Shu Youkang's eyes darkened, but he quickly returned to normal. "I know you hate me. You hate me for lying to you, for possessing you, and for using unscrupulous means. I won't defend myself and I know you won't forgive me. However, Xin 'er is innocent. You can hate me as much as you want. I can stay far away from you if you don't want to see me again. I just hope you won't hurt Xin' er."
Jian Xi frowned and looked at Shu Youkang. Her eyes were filled with hatred and anger. "Although I hate you, I gave birth to Shuxin. I will only do what's best for her. Why would I hurt her?"
"But you persuaded Yanqing to leave Xin 'er. This is the greatest harm to her. You don't know how much Xin' er loves Yanqing. She purposely had a high fever to be with Yanqing. Then, she begged me to let them be together when I was feeling sorry for her. She didn't hesitate to hurt herself to pursue happiness. If you want to destroy it, won't you be taking her life?"
