The Atypical Young Lady Has Returned Chapter 201 – The Edge Of Courting Death

Chapter 201: The Edge Of Courting Death

Huo Xuan, who was beside the window on the second floor, also saw Huo Sisi, but he didn’t pay much attention to her. He only glanced at her briefly before retracting his gaze. Even though his vision was good enough, he could clearly see the bruise on Huo Sisi’s neck at a glance, so he didn’t take it to heart.

He turned to continue watching the warm scene beside the snowman.

His gaze suddenly landed on Yan Jinyu’s beautiful smile.

Yan Jinyu played a huge role in making his younger sister so close to their family.

This girl was clearly only 18 years old.

Her own experience was not very good either. She had been missing for many years and returned to the Yan Family, but she was treated harshly by her biological parents. Not only did she not blame anyone, but she also always had a smile on her face and looked very cheerful.

She didn’t have a dark heart and wished for others to be disliked by her family like her. She even very warmly helped Rainy build a good relationship with her family.

She was a very kind girl.

She was also a girl who was very protective of her friends.

And she was a girl who was so sensible that she didn’t look 18 years old.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Yin Jiujin was lucky.

Why did such a good girl belong to Yin Jiujin?

Suddenly, Huo Xuan thought of something and the light in his eyes darkened.

Even if she wasn’t Yin Jiujin’s, she would still be someone else’s. Anyway, such a girl wouldn’t be his no matter what.

He did not know when his body would collapse.

It was not suitable for him to think about things that he should not.

Otherwise, he would only tire himself out and others.

***

Huo Sisi tried her best to suppress the jealousy and hatred in her heart. She smiled and said, “Dad, Mom.” However, this smile looked a little sinister.

Anyway, it made people feel uncomfortable.

Sun Xiangxiang looked at her and frowned slightly. She clearly sensed Huo Sisi’s strangeness.

“Sisi, you’re back?”

“Why are you only back now?” Huo Lin frowned.

They knew that Huo Sisi went to the hospital to visit Cao Ming.

It was understandable for her to visit her injured friend who was hospitalized, but for a girl to visit a boy who was hospitalized regularly every day, and the other party was the second-generation heir of the Cao Family, Cao Ming, Huo Lin and Sun Xiangxiang were a little dissatisfied with this.

Huo Sisi had been out for so long today. She left around 10 in the morning and only came back when it was almost dark.

Huo Lin and Sun Xiangxiang were even more dissatisfied.

“After visiting Cao Ming in the hospital, a friend asked to shop with her. The friend wanted to choose a birthday present for her mother and asked me to be her adviser. Mom, you know that I will seriously choose a gift for you on your birthday every year. Among those friends, I’m the best at this.”

Sun Xiangxiang didn’t say a word.

She was probably thinking about the past.

It had to be said that Huo Sisi was indeed very good at currying favor. It was not without reason that Sun Xiangxiang liked and trusted her so much in the past.

She was always meticulous and no one could find fault with her.

At the mention of this, Sun Xiangxiang’s heart softened again. “The weather is so cold. Don’t play until so late out there in the future.”

Sun Xiangxiang’s heart softened, but Huo Lin didn’t. He looked at Huo Sisi, “You’re the eldest daughter of the Huo Family. Even if the other party is your friend, it’s normal for you to visit him occasionally after he’s hospitalized. But what would happen if word got out that you went to the hospital every day?”

“Could it be that you’ve taken a fancy to that son of the Cao Family?”

“Dad!” At the mention of Cao Ming, Huo Sisi recalled what happened in the ward today and burned with anger.

“How could I possibly like Cao Ming!”

“Something happened to him because I invited him to go to the ski resort. Before this, I promised to send him soup every day. I couldn’t go back on my words, so I went to the hospital every day. Dad, you don’t want others to say that the Huo Family is untrustworthy, right?”

“I’m the daughter of the Huo Family, so I naturally have to consider the Huo Family’s interests. I definitely won’t do anything that would disgrace the Huo Family. I only went to the hospital every day after careful consideration.”

Huo Lin was not convinced by her words. Instead, his frown deepened. “Compared to keeping my word, I don’t want others to mistakenly think that my daughter has taken a fancy to that useless son of the Cao Family. I can’t afford to lose face like this.”

“Besides, only a few people know that you promised to deliver soup to him every day. Even if you don’t deliver it every day or get a servant or friend to deliver it for you, what will others say?”

“It’s fine if you don’t care about your reputation. Don’t ruin the Huo Family’s reputation!”

With that, Huo Lin didn’t wait for her to reply and turned to enter the house.

With Sun Xiangxiang and the others watching, no matter how angry Huo Sisi was, she didn’t dare to show it at that moment. She clenched her fists tightly. “I understand, Daddy. I’ll pay attention in the future.”

Huo Xuan could see the bruise on Huo Sisi’s neck on the second floor, so how could Huo Lin, who was the closest to her, not see it?

Hence, Huo Lin’s anger was actually reasonable.

He did not expose her because he did not want to expose her in front of the guests. He also did not want to publicize their family’s scandal.

As for this matter, Huo Lin planned to talk about it slowly after Yan Jinyu left the Huo Family.

He kept mentioning Cao Ming and telling her not to go to the hospital just to remind Huo Sisi, but Huo Sisi used such dignified words to refute him.

It would be a wonder if Huo Lin was happy.

“Let’s go in first,” Sun Xiangxiang said as she looked at Huo Siyu and Yan Jinyu.

“Sisi, come in too. Although your father’s words are a little harsh, they’re also reasonable. If you don’t like that second son of the Cao Family, try not to interact with him as much as possible. Of course, you can visit him occasionally, but not so often.”

“Rumors could be spread just with the mouths. If this goes on, your reputation might be ruined.”

“I’ll take note of that, Mom.”

“Mm-hm.”

Huo Siyu walked to Huo Sisi and suddenly stopped in her tracks. She smiled at her, “Huo Sisi, why were you fine when you left the house in the morning? Why do you look so haggard when you come back at night?”

Huo Sisi’s pupils were constricted. “I-is it?”

“Yes, especially.”

“T-that’s probably because I was out in the cold wind. That’s why I look so haggard. I’ll go back to my room and take a hot shower. I’ll probably feel better.”

“That’s good.”

After saying that, Huo Siyu smiled at her mysteriously.

Huo Sisi’s heart skipped a beat.

She had a feeling that Huo Siyu seemed to know something.

But was that possible?

Before she came back, she specially bought a concealer to cover her traces. She had bought it at a cosmetics shop that wasn’t very good at the last minute, so the effect was not very good. The darker traces could not be covered, but it was not obvious anymore. Furthermore, it was winter and she was wearing thick clothes, so how could Huo Siyu possibly tell?

Not only Huo Siyu, but Yan Jinyu also smiled at her when she walked past her.

Yan Jinyu’s smile looked no different from usual, but Huo Sisi was still a little uneasy.

With this uneasy feeling, Huo Sisi entered the house and went upstairs.

She returned to her room to take a bath.

She didn’t soak for long. She changed and went downstairs.

She went to the kitchen as usual to watch the servants cook.

“Hello, Eldest Missy.” The three servants in the kitchen greeted her in unison as soon as she walked in.

The servants’ attitude towards her depended on Sun Xiangxiang and Huo Lin’s attitude towards her.

Hence, the servants who used to be very respectful to her were all very perfunctory when they greeted her now.

This made Huo Sisi even angrier.

In the living room, Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu were watching television.

The remote control was in Huo Siyu’s hand. She turned on a channel that was playing “Tom and Jerry”.

Yan Jinyu took a few more glances.

Huo Siyu, who was sitting beside her, shifted again and again until she was beside her. She bumped her shoulder and gestured for her to look into the kitchen. “Beauty Yu, Huo Sisi will definitely be a good wife and mother in the future. Look, she went into the kitchen to inspect their work again.”

When Sun Xiangxiang, who was sitting on the other sofa, heard that, she threw a glance at her angrily. “What are you talking about?”

Huo Siyu smiled. “Mom, I didn’t say anything wrong either.”

“Beauty Yu, are you thirsty? Shall I get you a glass of water?”

Yan Jinyu looked at her and chuckled, “Thank you.”

She smiled at Huo Lin and Sun Xiangxiang who were looking over. Huo Siyu asked, “How about Mom and Dad? Do you want to drink water? I’ll pour it together.”

Sun Xiangxiang finished the tea in her hand in one go. “Yes, pour a cup for your father and me too. I’m thirsty.”

Huo Lin glanced at the teacup Sun Xiangxiang had placed on the coffee table and raised his eyebrows.

He nodded too.

“Alright, I’ll pour a glass for each of you.”

Getting glasses of water was just an excuse. She was there to observe.

Huo Sisi still had the mood to go to the kitchen to inspect after experiencing such a thing?

She did not believe it.

As for why she was so sure about what Huo Sisi had experienced, it was not because she could tell, but…

She had received a video from Xiang Jie and had seen it in her room with Beauty Yu.

Otherwise, how could they be in the mood to build snowmen?

She was too happy and pulled Beauty Yu to build a snowman to express her joy.

The video was very interesting.

It was similar to watching a movie.

She didn’t expect Huo Sisi to be so… Uh, bold?

As for whether she had any sympathy for Huo Sisi after watching that video, she could say with certainty that she did not!

Putting aside the fact that Huo Sisi had planned to use such a method to destroy her a year ago, regarding the matter between Huo Sisi and Cao Ming, it was completely Huo Sisi who took the initiative later on. Cao Ming only said a few threatening words. If Huo Sisi had loved herself a little more, Cao Ming, who was lying on the hospital bed and unable to move, would not have been able to do anything to her.

Unfortunately, Huo Sisi…

After a while, Huo Siyu came over with three cups of warm water on a tray, one for each of them.

She turned around and put the tray back.

However, be it when she was pouring or putting the tray down, she kept glancing into the kitchen discreetly.

After dinner was ready, Huo Xuan didn’t come downstairs to eat.

The reason was that he had eaten outside and had work to do.

This made Huo Sisi very distracted during the entire meal.

Since Huo Xuan wasn’t at the dinner table, his medicinal meal naturally wasn’t brought out to the table.

After dinner, Huo Sisi volunteered to send some food upstairs for Huo Xuan. Although Huo Lin and Sun Xiangxiang, who suspected that she was interested in Huo Xuan, were unhappy, they didn’t say anything in the end.

Huo Siyu and Yan Jinyu looked at each other, but they didn’t say anything.

Huo Sisi carried the tray upstairs and knocked on Huo Xuan’s study door, but no one answered.

“Brother, are you there?”

No one answered, so Huo Sisi pushed the door open and walked in.

The next second, a black gun was pointed at her head.

Huo Sisi was so frightened that she almost knocked over the medicinal soup in her hand.

“B-Brother…”
