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

Although she did suspect that Huo Xicheng was the one who bullied Wen Yingying, she didn't expect that Huo Xicheng would come over so quickly, and the two of them seemed... to have an unusual relationship?

Seeing Huo Xicheng carrying Wen Yingying in, Meng Xia squeezed the shopping bags in her hands tightly. After hesitating for a long time, she went up and knocked on the door, then put down her things and left before Huo Xicheng came to open the door. Got——

She didn't know whether it was appropriate to leave the two of them alone, but the person who tied the bell had to untie it, and their problems ultimately needed to be solved by themselves.

When Huo Xichen came over to open the door, there was nothing outside. Just as he was about to close the door, he happened to catch a glimpse of the shopping bag leaning against the wall. He knew without even thinking that it was bought by Meng Xia.

only……

I bought it but didn't send it in. I must have seen him.

She clearly saw him and ran over to knock on the door, but she refused to show up and left only these things. Was she asking him to take good care of Wen Yingying, or was she warning him that she knew he was here?

His eyes flickered, and Huo Xicheng couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. He actually looked down on this "sister" who had always been taciturn.

Suddenly, there was a noise in the living room. Huo Xicheng looked back and saw that it was Wen Yingying who made the noise, so he hurried in carrying his things.

When Meng Xia arrived home, it was almost ten o'clock, and when she opened the door, the house was completely dark——

Um? Huo Xibai is not at home?

She was probably used to Huo Xibai picking her up, or Huo Xibai waiting for her at home, but now she suddenly couldn't see anyone, which made her feel a little uncomfortable and worried for a while——

First, I sent Huo Xibai a WeChat message. After seeing that he didn't reply, I called him again, but it rang for a while and the other party didn't answer.

Meng Xia couldn't help but become more worried. Huo Xibai rarely didn't answer her calls. Even if there was an important meeting, he would pause to listen to her first.

After Meng Xia discovered an accident in the past, she no longer dared to call Huo Xibai casually. Unless there was something important, she would send WeChat messages directly.

After not answering two calls in a row, Meng Xia couldn't help but frown. He couldn't be angry, right? Just because she didn't let him go suddenly today?

But today doesn't seem to be an important anniversary. Generally, Huo Xibai will not refuse to answer the phone when he can feel confident and confident.

Could it be that... something happened?

Feeling nervous, Meng Xia called again, but this time the other party answered quickly, "Hello? What's wrong?"

He even asked her what was wrong...

Meng Xia pursed her lips unhappily, "What are you doing? Why don't you answer the phone?"

"Overtime."

"Working overtime? Where do you work overtime? Why are you so noisy?"

"Let's talk about cooperation outside."

The man spoke concisely and half a beat slower than usual. Meng Xia couldn't help but frown, "Are you drunk?"

"No."

Huo Xibai shook his head to deny it, and added, "I just drank a little, and I will go home right away."

Hearing him say going home, Meng Xia's brows relaxed a little, "Then why did you come back after drinking? I'll pick you up?"

"No, I'll call a driver myself. It's too late and it's not safe."

Hearing this, Meng Xia finally couldn't help but chuckle. Originally, Huo Xibai always asked her to pick him up whenever he had the chance, wanting to show off their relationship to everyone.

Later, in order to open a new store, she always drove Huo Xibai's car to go shopping. Once she accidentally rear-ended him, and he was so scared that he no longer dared to let her drive. He even went to the store to pick her up from get off work every day.

"Okay, then I'll cook some hangover soup for you."

"I want the osmanthus-flavored one from last time."

"it is good."

Meng Xia smiled and hung up the phone. She made sobering soup first, then went to take a shower and change clothes. When she just came out of the bathroom, she happened to hear Huo Xibai's sound of opening the door——

"Are you back? Take a quick bath, and then come over to drink hangover soup..."

Before he finished speaking, the man suddenly tilted his body and was about to fall. Meng Xia quickly stepped forward to support him——
