Chapter 1807: Huo Ze and Xia Tang (11)

Before Old Madam Huo came to the Xia family, she had asked around about how many suitable granddaughters the Xia family had for her Heng’er.

The eldest branch had a daughter called Xia Furong. She was about the same age as her Heng and was said to be as pretty as a flower.

She originally thought that Xia Wangshi would call Xia Furong out to see her, but in the end, she had sent an unfavored and timid granddaughter.

She had even claimed that her eldest granddaughter was sick and was bedridden.

Wasn’t the girl in front of him called Sister Furong red-faced and energetic?

How was she like a bedridden person?

When Xia Wangshi saw Xia Furong appear at the door of the third room, she was angry and embarrassed.

Why had Furong come out instead of staying in the room?

Ye Guixiang was the first to react. She walked quickly to Xia Furong and pinched her lightly. “Rong’er, why do you look so pale? Are you feeling unwell again?”

Xia Furong blinked and received Ye Guixiang’s gaze. She knew that she had to act weak now.

Her eyes turned red and tears fell. “Mom, my stomach hurts. The washroom at home is broken. I came to borrow Third Uncle’s washroom. Ouch, it really hurts!”“Sister Furong, did you drink chicken soup? I see chicken soup on your clothes.”

“Nonsense. I never dripped my chicken soup on my clothes…” Xia Furong glared at Xia Cha, who was talking. Seeing that everyone’s eyes were on her again, she realized that she had let it slip.

Xia Wangshi’s expression was extremely ugly.

Seeing Xia Furong like this, Ye Guixiang must have secretly made chicken soup for her in private.

A few days ago, Ye Guixiang had gone back to her family’s house but had not bring anything back. It turned out that she was fooling her. She had brought back a chicken but only made soup for her daughter.

“Second Brother, what’s wrong with your Xia Cha? She got into a car accident and has become muddle-headed? Furong is her older sister. Why is she maligning her older sister?”

Car accident?

Sitting in the wheelchair, Huo Heng looked in Xia Cha’s direction.

She was that slender figure who had been acting furtively earlier.

Huo Heng looked at her carefully.

She was wearing a gray long shirt and pants. Her clothes were very old, but they were washed very clean. Her dry yellow hair was braided into two long braids, and her face was fleshless and yellowish. At first glance, she looked like a malnourished little girl.But looking at her closely, her eyes actually looked a little similar to Tang Tang’s.

They both had the typical red phoenix eyes. The corners of their eyes were slightly upturned, slender, and long.

Huo Heng’s heart suddenly started to beat violently.

His slender hands on the wheelchair tightened and the veins on the back of his hands popped out.

Was Xia Cha Tangtang?

Xia Cha stood behind the adults. Suddenly, she felt that something was wrong, as if a pair of eyes that could not be ignored had landed on her.

It made her feel uneasy.

Xia Cha looked around, her clear eyes meeting a pair of upturned eyes that were probing and deep.

Xia Cha’s heart skipped a beat when she saw the handsome young man sitting in the wheelchair.

When the man saw her looking at him, not only did he not look away, he even stared at her openly.

Xia Cha muttered in her heart.Was there something wrong with that person?

Why was he staring at her?

Xia Cha naturally knew that he was the young master of the Huo family and the useless person that the eldest branch was talking about!

Although his gaze made her feel disrespected and panicked, but… She glanced at his legs covered by the thin blanket. Thinking that he would not be able to walk in the future, she looked at him with some sympathy.

Huo Heng saw the change in Xia Cha’s gaze and his thin lips curled up slightly.

His smile was handsome and devilish.

Seeing the man’s smile, Xia Cha hurriedly looked away.

Xia Furong, who was leaning against Ye Guixiang’s arms, was thinking about how to fool everyone when she saw Huo Heng sitting in the wheelchair from the corner of her eye.

His smile just now seemed to have hit her heart.

He was really too handsome!

And it was that kind of devilish handsomeness.If he had not become useless, she would have considered marrying him.

Unfortunately, she did not want to be a widow after marrying into the Huo family.

Xia Furong had been stunned by Huo Heng’s smile just now and had not heard what Old Madam Huo said to Xia Wangshi. She only saw Old Madam Huo say with a dark expression, “This time, coming to the Xia family really opened my eyes. Since Old Sister didn’t take the agreement between the two old men to heart, just treat it as if we didn’t come today!”

Old Madam Huo left with Huo Yuan and Ye Shuangshuang, Jian Yi, and Huo Heng left.

Before Huo Heng left, he glanced at Xia Cha again.

Xia Cha met his gaze and shrank behind the adults, avoiding his gaze.

Huo Heng’s smile widened and he looked even more devilish.

Xia Cha cursed in her heart. There had to be something wrong with him!

…

The Huo family did not want to marry the Xia family anymore. Of course, some people were happy while others were sad.

The second branch was undoubtedly happy.Xia Lan had pretended to faint. After the Huo family left, she opened her eyes and got up from the bed.

Xia Cha came to Xia Lan’s side and clapped. “Sister, don’t worry about Grandma marrying you into the Huo family anymore.”

Xia Lan nodded and held Xia Cha’s hand. “Cha Cha, it’s all thanks to you. By the way, how did you get Big Sister to go to the third branch’s wing?”

“I plucked a laxative leaf on the mountain and dripped the leaf juice into Big Sister’s chicken soup. She had diarrhea after drinking it. The drainage pipe in her bathroom broke two days ago and she must have had diarrhea. She doesn’t like our house, so she could only go to Third Uncle’s house.”

Xia Lan pinched Xia Cha’s nose. “You’re smart.”

“Oh right, will Auntie notice that there are laxative leaves in the chicken soup later?”

Xia Cha shook her head. “Grandma guessed that First Aunt had secretly made chicken soup for Big Sister. First Aunt will definitely go back and deal with it immediately and won’t be found out. Even if First Aunt ate it secretly, would she dare to let Grandma find out who added laxative leaves in the chicken soup? Wouldn’t that be telling Grandma that she gave Big Sister preferential treatment?”

“Oh, you.” Xia Lan looked at Xia Cha with gentle eyes. “You didn’t even make a sound when you were bullied in the past. After the accident, you seemed to have become a different person.”

Xia Cha hugged Xia Lan’s arm and rubbed her head against it. “Is the current Cha Cha better or the previous Cha Cha better?”

“Of course it’s the current one. Cha Cha has become smarter. Mom and I are happy for you.”

Xia Cha saw that Xia Lan’s elbow was injured. It must have been hurt when she pretended to faint. Xia Cha stood up from the bed. “Sister, I’ll go to the drugstore to buy some medicine for you.”

“It’s nothing. It’s just a small injury.” Xia Lan took out twenty yuan from under her pillow and gave it to Xia Cha. “Didn’t you want to eat popsicles before? I asked Dad for some pocket money. You can take it to the supermarket and eat it outside. Take the rest of the money and buy whatever you want to eat.”

Xia Cha walked out of the door. She did not plan to buy a popsicle herself and planned to buy some medicine for Xia Lan.

After a few steps, she realized that something was wrong.

A black sedan was following her.
