Chapter 197 He Was Protecting Her?

, the aura of her being from a wealthy, scholarly family was too strong, and she didn't dare to speak to her. As she grew up, their Wen family had become a burden to her, and she felt guilty and self-...[ ]

The old man was indeed even more radiant.

He had someone bring over a check for twenty million yuan and handed it to Wen Xixi himself.

“She really went too far, no matter what you say. This is just a little something from me, as compensation for you. From now on, I'll make your sister go abroad. She can't set foot here for five years. What do you think”

"What"

Wen Xuxu was stunned and looked up, a little disbelieving of what she had heard.

How about it

Of course, I don't think it's a big deal. Debt has to be repaid, and murder needs to be avenged. Legally speaking, Huo Sistar did that to her, which is premeditated murder. She deserves to be in jail for a long time.

But he just brushed it off so casually.

It seems he had already made arrangements for her to come, but it was just a formality.

Wen Xixi lowered her head, a trace of self-deprecation crossing her lips: "It's fine, I..."

"What's so good Wen Xixi, so you're such a bitch! Your father isn't his old friend Brothers who risked their lives for each other, how is it Are you worth this much to him"

Never would I have expected, at this very moment, the man who had been silently watching from the side all along, suddenly spoke.

His words were dripping with sarcasm, and his sharp, well-defined face was a mask of mocking amusement. The old man's face flushed crimson at once.

"You bastard, what are you talking about"

"What I'm saying, you can't understand I'm reminding you, don't ruin your reputation. Back then, you let me marry her, but in City A, you made everyone know that Huo Yaning is ruthless and heartless. Now your daughter wants to kill her, and you only give her 20 million as hush money"

This man, unbelievable!!

He even said something like this in the end!

The main hall fell into a deathly silence. The old man, enraged, choked and began to roll his eyes.

"Master! Master!!"

"Dad—"

Everyone in the hall saw it and rushed over, including Huo Sijia who was on the ground. He immediately got up and went over as well.

Wen Xuxu's jaw dropped!

Finally regaining her composure, she saw that the man opposite her still seemed relentless. Her heart skipped a beat and before she could react, she rushed forward. Just as he was about to speak again, she covered his mouth!

"Shut up, you're making things worse!"

Ho Si-jue: ...

Caught off guard, he was meekly covered by this woman, forgetting to even move.

Only those deep, ink-like eyes remained, dangerously half-closed in her small hand. Her thick, slightly upturned eyelashes looked like two rows of tiny fans.

This woman, she's really bold!

Wen Xuxu hadn't realized the recklessness of her actions.

She was keeping a close eye on the activity in the hall. She truly didn't expect this guy to be so outspoken; he's his father, doesn't he fear angering him to death

Seeing that something happened inside, everyone outside came over. The old man was about to start yelling again, and she was getting anxious.

"Come on, you're still just standing here You want to fight"

She turned her head with a slightly frustrated expression.

But unexpectedly, the moment she turned around, her gaze fell upon those eyes that were being covered by her hand and peeking out.

Those eyes, they had always been stunningly beautiful. But at this moment, seeing her finally discover her masterpiece, a playful gleam appeared in their depths, like a lazy ripple across a tranquil lake. It made Wen Xixi's heart skip a beat!

My goodness!

What is she doing!

Wen Xuxu woke up, and in an instant, she was as if struck by lightning, retracting her hand. Her palm-sized face instantly flushed red, so scarlet it seemed like blood would drip from it.

"Sorry, I... I didn't mean to."

She had never been so flustered.

Because she had never been this close to him before, let alone such an intimate gesture.

Wen Xuxu wished she could disappear from here immediately.

Huo Sijue took in her panicked appearance, but remained silent. Instead, his long and slender fingers first brushed against his own lips, and after a moment, his cool and watery gaze suddenly lifted.

Wen Xuxu :“……”

In almost an instant, she gasped for air!

She thought he was about to scold her, humiliate her, after all, he had always disliked her very much.

What's strange is that the creature didn't attack. It just stared at her for a while, and then suddenly stood up from its chair.

"Are you sure you want me to leave"

"What"

Wen Xuxu immediately raised her head.

Ho Si-jue was getting a little impatient.

He smoothed down his coat, still bearing the chill of winter, and with a cold glint in his eyes, he scanned the messy hall. He said, half-sarcastically, half-warned, "Leave now, and you'll never be able to do anything to her again!"

He actually pointed directly at his sister Huo Si Xing!

Wen Xuxi suddenly froze.

Ho Si Xing saw, from afar he could still hear her shrill screams: "Ho Si Jue, you heartless beast! I curse you to not live past tonight!!"

Dear younger brother, how could you be so malicious

Wen Xuxu finally understood, and suddenly, her heart felt a complex mixture of emotions she couldn't describe. Don't be afraid, Mommy and your younger siblings will always be by your side. This is a training opportunity, it's okay if you lose."Wen Xixi saw this, reached out and hugged him, naturally comfortin...
