CHAPTER 271: CHAPTER 272 THE TRUTH 9

Hearing her say this, the corners of Huo Shaohua’s mouth unconsciously lifted.

The anger in his heart had disappeared, and he picked up his chopsticks to start eating.

"Wait until your health is better before you do that. Right now, what’s important is to recover."

She purposely cooked for him; of course, he was very happy.

But her body hadn’t recovered yet and she couldn’t exert herself too much.

"Okay." Tian Xingyun replied, lowering her head.

"Why are you reading these books?" Huo Shaohua glanced at the book in her hand. Even such boring books she was reading.

"Learning how to knit a sweater."

"Who are you knitting it for?" Huo Shaohua tilted his head to look at her, somewhat anticipating her answer.

"For Tianxin."

"..." He felt a sudden sense of disappointment in his heart; he thought she would knit a sweater for him.

"Buzz~" Huo Shaohua’s phone kept ringing. Song Yi was continuously calling him.

After reading those documents, she felt deeply guilty toward Huo Shaohua.

She didn’t know he had suffered such grievances, that he was threatened by Tian Xingyun.

If Grandma knew what kind of woman Tian Xingyun was, would she still protect her?

She originally thought the child in her belly was a son, but it turned out to be a daughter!

Such a useless woman, Grandma wouldn’t protect her anymore, right?

This time, she would utterly drive Tian Xingyun out of the Huo Family!

"Your phone is ringing, why aren’t you answering it?" Tian Xingyun glanced in the direction of the phone, then looked at Huo Shaohua.

"It’s okay not to answer." Huo Shaohua frowned, lowering his head to eat. He had already guessed who was calling.

"It might wake up our daughter."

"..."

"Go answer it quickly." Tian Xingyun said softly, glancing at Little Sweetheart to make sure she wasn’t awakened.

Without saying a word, Huo Shaohua put down his phone, stood up, and went to pick it up.

Seeing that the caller ID was Song Yi, he didn’t want to answer.

But afraid it would wake up his daughter, he took the phone to the balcony to answer.

Tian Xingyun watched him walk out, her eyelashes drooping with a touch of sadness in her eyes.

Going out to answer the phone, she had already guessed who it was.

The grandmother in the garden saw Huo Shaohua standing on the balcony making a call.

She shook her head and smiled. This boy, if only he were more decisive.

Aunt Liu standing beside Grandma smiled and said, "Old Madam, you can’t be too hard on the young master either."

She was worried that the Old Madam would really not let the young master in, thinking she had blocked the young master’s secret passage.

Now that she saw the young master come in, she felt relieved.

"Just making him suffer a bit. Who told him to keep protecting Song Yi and her mother." Grandma sighed. Shaohua was her precious grandson.

How could she possibly be harsh on him, but most of the time, she had to be strict.

"I never thought Miss Song would turn out to be such a heartless woman!" Aunt Liu shook her head, sighing. She always thought Song Yi was a good girl.

Even if her mother was terrible, she believed she would not be as bad as her mother.

She never expected her to be so heartless, harming the Young Madam and the little miss!

What a cute little miss, luckily she wasn’t harmed by Song Yi and her mother.

Otherwise, they would never be forgiven!

"You can’t judge people by their appearances, we didn’t see through Song Yi’s character before."

"Yes." Aunt Liu sighed, agreeing with Grandma’s words.

Luckily Song Yi didn’t marry the young master, otherwise, the Huo Family would be ruined.

Song’s mother’s greedy and selfish nature would surely destroy the Huo Family.

"Go upstairs and ask that boy what he wants to eat and make it for him." Grandma glanced at Huo Shaohua, who was still on the balcony making the call.

"Yes, Old Madam." Aunt Liu nodded with a smile, and immediately turned to leave.

The young master hadn’t come down to eat earlier, he must be very hungry.

Huo Shaohua explained to Song Yi that he was staying at the old house tonight and wouldn’t be going back to the villa.

Song Yi didn’t say much, just told him to take care of his health and rest early.

Him not coming back also made it easier for her to investigate some things.
