The ones who came in were Xu Xiaoxiao and Du Haoran

The two slowly opened the door and walked into the room. Her eyes quickly scanned the entire room like a radar, and immediately locked onto the man sitting in the corner - Hong Huo.

He sat there quietly, motionless, as if isolated from the whole world.

His eyes were extremely cold, without the slightest emotion, like a pool of stagnant water, bottomless.

This kind of indifference is not a superficial pretense, but emanates from the bones, making people shudder.

She couldn't help but shudder, and an indescribable fear surged in her heart.

The presence of this man gives people a strong sense of oppression, making it hard to breathe.

An invisible shadow seemed to be shrouding him, swallowing up everything around him.

At this moment, she deeply experienced what it meant to "feel like falling into an ice cellar", and her whole body became numb and cold.

This cold expression is similar to Fu Yanchen's, but there are some differences between the two.

Fu Yanchen's coldness is more like a kind of arrogant loneliness, alienation and disregard for the world.

But this person is different. There is real indifference in his eyes, as if he has no heart.

There was a cigarette butt that was almost burned out between Hong Huo's fingers, but he didn't seem to care about it and continued to smoke heavily.

He did not restrain his behavior just because Xu Xiaoxiao was pregnant, as if he didn't care about her health at all.

The smoke that came out of his mouth, with a strong smell of tobacco, slowly spread in the air.

The pungent smell made people feel a little uncomfortable, but Hong Huo didn't care.

Xu Xiaoxiao covered her face with her hands, trying to push away the smell of smoke. Now she could no longer smell the smoke.

Fu Yanchen has quit smoking for her. If he wants to smoke occasionally, he will go to the balcony or outside, and will not smoke in front of Xu Xiaoxiao.

Hong Hu frowned, looking a little unhappy, with a hint of impatience in his tone: "What on earth do you two want from me? To borrow money? Let me be clear, I'm a loan shark, and the interest rate is very high."

As he said this, he casually glanced at Du Haoran who was standing next to Xu Xiaoxiao. No matter how he looked at him, he didn't think this man was short of money.

However, Xu Xiaoxiao did not respond to Hong Huo's gaze, but pointed her finger at Lu Yingying and Lu's mother standing aside without hesitation, and said firmly: "I'm looking for them!" There was an unquestionable tone in her voice, which made people look sideways.

Her voice was firm and clear, indicating that her target was not Hong Huo, but the two women beside him.

This straightforward attitude obviously surprised Hong Huo, but he did not show too much emotion. He just glanced at Xu Xiaoxiao lightly and continued his silence.

He always felt that this woman was not simple.

Lu Yingying and her mother had just been brought to this strange place and had not yet been invited into the luxurious VIP suite inside.

Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in front of him—Xu Xiaoxiao!

She was wearing bright and beautiful clothes, and her slightly bulging belly was particularly eye-catching, as if announcing to everyone her happy life now.

A complex emotion suddenly surged in the hearts of the two people, with anger and unwillingness intertwined.

However, a faint glimmer of hope soon emerged.

Perhaps, Xu Xiaoxiao can help them out of their predicament.

Deep in their memories, there was no deep hatred between Xu Xiaoxiao and them.

What happened three years ago was entirely an order issued by Fu Yanchen and had nothing to do with the Lu family directly.

The real culprit should be Lu Jingjing

Neither the mother nor the daughter had ever done anything excessive towards Xu Xiaoxiao.

Since Xu Xiaoxiao was released from prison, their interactions have been relatively peaceful, without any conflicts or contradictions.

Moreover, Xu Xiaoxiao has always been known for her kindness, and her appearance may bring them a glimmer of hope.

Compared with the cold-blooded and terrifying Hong Huo, Lu Yingying and her mother would rather fall into Xu Xiaoxiao's hands.

Because they firmly believed that with Xu Xiaoxiao, they could at least retain a glimmer of hope for understanding and even forgiveness. Maybe in order to keep them away from Fu Yanchen, Xu Xiaoxiao would help them pay back the money and redeem them.

So, their eyes turned to Xu Xiaoxiao at the same time, with a hint of expectation and pleading in their eyes.

Mother Lu looked very embarrassed at the moment. She no longer looked like the noble lady who was so high and mighty and looked down on the whole world.

She suddenly pounced on him like a ferocious beast, so fast that people were caught off guard.

Her originally delicate face now became hideous and distorted, and her eyes were filled with fear and despair, as if the end of the world was about to come.

She stretched out her hands and grabbed Xu Xiaoxiao's arm tightly with such force that she almost crushed it.

Her fingers dug deeply into Xu Xiaoxiao's skin, as if she was trying to seek a sense of security in this way.

At this moment, she seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and refused to let go no matter what.

Her eyes were filled with eagerness and desire, and she said in a trembling voice:

"Xiaoxiao, you must help us. We really don't know what to do now. Our Lu family owes 5000 million. We have no money. Where can we find 5000 million now? Xiaoxiao, please help our Lu family. You are so rich now. 5000 million is just your usual pocket money."

Xu Xiaoxiao was startled by Lu's mother's sudden action, but she quickly regained her composure and understood what was going on. Unfortunately, her wishful thinking was wrong. Xu Xiaoxiao was a saint. How could she help someone who almost killed her? However...

She stared into Mother Lu's anxious and helpless eyes, and a trace of indescribable "pity" arose in her heart. At the same time, a sneer of contempt rose involuntarily at the corner of her mouth.

She decided to play nice with them, so she gently patted the back of Lu's mother's hand, suggesting that she calm down first, and then said: "Don't be anxious, talk slowly, if there is any way I can help, I will definitely do my best."

At this moment, Du Haoran was quietly looking at the mischievous little girl in front of him, knowing in his heart that she was about to start acting naughty again.

Even though she is pregnant, she is still so naughty and playful.

He shook his head helplessly and warned softly: "Xiaoxiao, stop fooling around, the key is to deal with serious matters quickly."

Xu Xiaoxiao nodded, "Yes, I almost forgot..."
