She ran away from him and was not to be offended by her sickly brother.

[If you don’t reply, I will go directly to Meng Xia. 】

Huo Xibai's eyebrows jumped hard when he saw these words, and he tightened his arms unconsciously. He didn't let go of Meng Xia until Meng Xia in his arms frowned and cried out in pain.

"Are you okay?"

"Are you OK?"

Meng Xia subconsciously raised her hand and touched his forehead, with a worried look on her face, "What's wrong with you recently? Are you always absent-minded?"

"Nothing, just..."

His eyes darkened, and the man suddenly spoke again, "I'm going on a business trip soon, and I can't bear to leave you."

"..."

Meng Xia was startled, and an inexplicable heat flashed across his face, "It's just a business trip, what's the reluctance to do?"

After finishing her words, she was worried that the man would complain like before and she would not let him go, so she immediately added, "I'll be back in a few days, and if you want... if anything happens, you can call me. .”

The words suddenly changed. Meng Xia glanced at Huo Xibai shyly, but the man lowered his eyes and didn't seem to notice. He only whispered, "Then do you want to stay in the hospital for two more days? I won't let you stay at home alone. rest assured……"

"What's wrong with this?"

Meng Xia immediately interrupted him, "I'm not a three-year-old child. What's the problem with being alone at home?"

"..."

Huo Xibai stared at him, thinking about Huo Xicheng's news, and felt a little worried for a moment.

Seeing his silence, Meng Xia spoke again, "I have been lying in the hospital for a long time. I want to go home and see my grandma. Besides, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and I also want to prepare."

"it is good."

Huo Xibai hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.

-

Meng Xia left the hospital the next day, and Huo Xibai went to see her grandmother before returning home.

Huo Xibai packed up his things and went out in the afternoon. Meng Xia, who had always been unresponsive, uncharacteristically offered to see him off this time.

Huo Xibai was overjoyed, hugged her and kissed her, "Forget it this time, it's windy today and it's cold outside. You should have a good rest at home."

"?"

Normally, she would always argue that she was not considerate, but today she offered to give it to him, but to her surprise, he actually refused.

Meng Xia pursed her lips and didn't say much. She just told him to pay attention to safety on the road.

Huo Xibai held her intimately for a while, then reluctantly entered the elevator.

It wasn't until the elevator door closed that Meng Xia sighed and went home. She walked to the balcony of the living room and stared at the downstairs of the community.

After a while, I saw the familiar white car slowly leaving, and an inexplicable emotion flashed through my heart——

Maybe she wasn't completely reluctant?

However, what she didn't know was that after the man drove away, he did not go to the airport, but turned around and went in the opposite direction.

after an hour--

The black car parked steadily in front of Huo's house.

Staring at the familiar yet unfamiliar building in front of him, Huo Xibai hesitated for about two minutes before getting out of the car and entering——

"Hello, may I ask who you are..."

The new servant didn't recognize Huo Xibai, but the old man who was trimming the flower garden nearby recognized him at a glance, "Young Master! Are you back!?"

The old man excitedly welcomed him in and ordered the servant who was still standing aside, "Go and tell Madam quickly that the young master is back!"

"Yes……"

"no need."

Huo Xibai interrupted, "Where's my dad? I came back to see him."

Before he finished speaking, a cold voice took over his words——

"His flight is at 6 o'clock today and he won't arrive home until 7 o'clock."

Huo Xibai raised his eyes and saw Huo Xicheng in a black suit walking out——

We haven't seen each other for several years, but he is still as cold and sharp as he remembers. However, compared with his original sharpness, he is now more mature and restrained, but also more unfathomable.
