While he was setting the table, Song Li felt that The Fifth Lord was constantly giving him a cold vibe.
What's wrong?
Did Huo Jinyao think that he was disturbing their private time?
Okay, okay, I'll leave right away!
Song Li quickly placed the lunch on the dining cart onto the table, then pushed the dining cart away like a gust of wind.
"Pass me the prawns and disposable gloves," Huo Yanqing said in a low voice. His handsome face had returned to its usual calmness.
Shuxin thought that Huo Yanqing wanted to eat the prawns, so she obediently placed the plate and clean disposable gloves beside him and started eating.
Huo Yanqing put on the disposable gloves. His slender fingers looked so good as he peeled the prawns. As he peeled the prawns, he asked, "When are you going back to Fan City?"
Shuxin bit her chopsticks and thought for a moment. Zhang Wenhai had told her the truth, so she had to keep her promise and let Zhang Haotian go. She had to go to the police station in the afternoon to withdraw the case.
In the evening, Qiao'er asked her to go back to the Tong family for dinner, so she couldn't leave today.
Shuxin replied, "Tomorrow morning."
"Okay, I'm going back to Fan City tomorrow morning too. I'll take you back with me." Huo Yanqing's tone was oppressive.
"… Oh, thank you, Uncle Wu."
After a moment, Huo Yanqing took off the disposable gloves and pushed the plate of peeled prawns across the table. He then leaned back in his seat. "Eat slowly."
Shuxin looked at the prawns in front of her and blinked her watery eyes. "Uncle Wu, did you peel these prawns for me?"
"Yes."
Shuxin patted her chest, feeling flattered. She instantly felt sweet inside. "Thank you, Uncle Wu."
After dinner, Shu Xin went to the police station and told the police that she had drunk too much the night before yesterday. She was in a daze and could not remember what had happened. She had thought about it carefully for the past two days. It turned out that nothing had happened that night. Zhang Haotian had wanted to do something to her, but the police had arrived in time.
Rape was a felony, so the case had been filed.
Withdrawing the case was a little troublesome. There was a lot of paperwork, questioning, and signing. When Shuxin came out of the police station, the sky was already dark purple.
When Shuxin returned to the Tong family's house, Tong Wenbin and Li Yang were already there.
Tong Wenbin and Xia Daiyun were very grateful to Shuxin and kept thanking her. They treated her like a VIP, making Shuxin was a little embarrassed..
Tong Qiao put her arm around Shu Xin's shoulder and said with a smile, "Dad, Mom, don't be so polite to my wife. She's blushing. She's my family from now on.
Xia Daiyun glared at Tong Qiao. "This child, why are you calling me your daughter-in-law? Isn't it better to call me your sister?"
"How can a younger sister be as intimate as a daughter-in-law?" Tong Qiao winked mischievously.
After Tong Qiao's interruption, the atmosphere became much more relaxed.
Li Yang didn't speak much. Occasionally, he would say a few words to Tong Wenbin. When he first came in, he greeted Shu Xin. After that, he didn't speak, but his gaze always seemed to be on Shu Xin.
After dinner, Li Yang stayed for a while and said that he was going to leave. He even asked Tong Qiao to go out.
That night, Shuxin slept in Tong Qiao's room.
Tong Qiao was waiting at the bathroom door. When she saw Shuxin come out of the shower, she hurriedly pulled her to the bed.
Shuxin couldn't help but laugh. She joked, "Look at how anxious you are. It's just going to bed. Why are you so anxious?"
