Chapter 477
But how fast was Huo Si Xing, only in the twinkling of an eye, she had already taken off her own earring, then in three clicks she straightened it and inserted it into the keyhole of that small building’s front door.
“Click–” the lock opened.
Wen Shuxu: “……”
“Okay, I’m going in, you keep watch here ah, by the way, you better find a place to hide, it’s not good if someone finds you.”
After Huo Sixing managed to open this door, when he went in, he purposely instructed Wen Shuxu.
Things had come to this point, and Wen Shuxu couldn’t refuse to agree.
She closed the door behind her and then found a more secluded place to hide.
The time pa*sed, as the sun rose higher and higher overhead, Wen Shuxu heard nothing inside, she began to get a little anxious.
The scary thing was that someone else would just happen to be coming too.
“Strange, why is the door in here being opened?”
“Huh? Then hurry up and go in and have a look, the old man will be saved soon, it would be bad if he found out.”
A slightly panicked voice came out, and immediately, Wen Shuxu heard someone coming in.
What?
The old master is coming?!
Wen Shuxu also panicked and immediately backed up towards the back, she wanted to avoid this person and then find a way to inform Huo Si Xing who had gone in.
But at this moment, her ears suddenly seemed to hear a “thud” from inside.
What happened?
Had something happened to Huo Sicheng?
She suddenly turned white and saw that the man was getting closer and closer, so she had no time to think about it and had to dive into the small building.
Then she closed the door tightly!
The door was closed, so naturally, there was no movement outside.
Wen Shuxu saw with her own eyes through the doorway that the servant had left, and only then did she turn around and begin to survey this place that she had never been to before, even though she had married in.
“Hoo-”
“Who?”
The sudden gasp that came from the room caused a cold sweat to break out behind Wen Shuxu’s back in fright.
However, after she drank, there was no movement to be seen in here, but instead, it was the tablets that had been enshrined over at the ancestral hall, in the not-so-bright light inside.
It sent a chill down one’s spine to see it.
This place, too eerie, too spooky.
Wen Shuxu swallowed her saliva and forced herself to calm down first.
Afterwards, she glanced upstairs and began to creep up step by step, ready to find Huo Sicheng.
“Huo Sixing? Huo Sixing? Where are you?”
“……”
There was no sound.
After she climbed up, there was no movement at all in this treacherous, numbingly small building, except for her own breathing.
And where was Huo Si Xing? Where had she gone?
Wen Shuxu stood on the first floor where the windows were shut tightly, and her eyes quickly swept around.
As a result, she was shocked to find that this first floor was actually a complete bedroom, with a bed curtain, a round table, and even a dressing table.
Only, it seemed to be a bit old, as a layer of dust had accumulated on all these. Also, the furniture was not modern, it was all old and vintage.
Who the hell had lived here?
She slowly walked over, and then she noticed several pieces of paper scattered on the floor in front of that dresser.
What was this again?
She picked it up.
“A birth certificate?”
She was shocked.
How could there be a birth certificate here? And it was such old-fashioned proof paper.
She looked at the paper in dismay, only to find that the yellowed paper said that the father’s column was called Shen Ying, and the mother’s column was filled in: xiao fuli.
Fuli Xiao?
She had never seen such a strange name, nor did she know the person.
But the words “xiao fuli” looked familiar to her.
It seemed that Huo Sijiu’s mother’s surname was xiao?
Could that be her?
She almost blurted out.
But soon, after thinking it over, she dismissed it again because she remembered that her mother-in-law’s surname was indeed xiao, but her name was not xiao Fuli.
Her name was xiao Yan Yan.
Then who was this woman?
Wen Shuxu couldn’t figure it out, and at this time, in the quiet upstairs, there was a sudden “pop…”!
“Who is it?”
She immediately shoved the things in her hands onto her body, and then went after the sound.
As a result, she never expected that when she came over, she would see, to her horror, that Huo Sicheng had fallen down there, and at that moment, beside her feet, something was nibbling on her toes.
“Ah…”
She finally let out a wretched scream!
—
Wen Shuxu had disappeared.
Huo Sijiu had noticed something was wrong at noon when he realised she hadn’t returned for dinner as promised.
“President, I found out that Madam had gone to meet with Missy again.”
“What meeting? Has this woman changed her nature since she came back? Why do you keep asking her to meet you? Are the two of them close?”
As soon as he heard that it was this sister who had asked his wife out again, the man immediately scolded in a very unpleasant manner.
Lengxu could only listen with a cold sweat on his face.
It wasn’t until a few minutes later that the man sent to follow returned the message.
“What did you say? The two of them went to the old mansion?”
“Yes, we don’t know what’s going on, but when we arrived at the old mansion, we couldn’t get in, we could only keep watch outside, but until now, we haven’t seen the two of them come out.”
“……”
This time, Lengxu’s face changed all over.
Chapter 478
What else would you do at the Old House?
To do something stupid, of course!
There were so many options available to her, but she chose the most stupid one.
If the old man found out about this, how far would she go to put her brother?
Lengxu was dying of anxiety.
Just then, the man he had sent out had come back with news.
“It’s not good, Captain Leng, the old man has already gone back.”
“What?!!!”
Leng Xu jumped up in shock at once.
“I’ll get rid of her!!!”
Almost at the same time, the man who could no longer hold down his rage, also slammed his fist onto the table fiercely, and he immediately slammed the door and left.
Lengxu could only rush to follow.
Twenty or so minutes later, at the entrance of the Huo family’s old mansion.
Huo Sijiu had just arrived here, and he really saw the Rolls Royce outside.
At once, after his face changed again, he immediately pushed open the door and came down, ready to go straight in.
However, he did not expect that just as he reached the front door, Huo Yanying, who was on crutches inside, acted as if he already knew he would come and had someone carry a woman and follow him to the door.
“You’ve finally come?”
The old man actually greeted his son nonchalantly after seeing him.
Huo Sijiu’s face turned blue for a long time before he took his eyes back from the woman he was carrying behind him.
“What’s wrong with her?”
“Nothing, just sneaking into the shrine, Huo Siji, you’ve grown in skill now, I told you to leave Huo, and you actually thought of stealing.”
“What did you say?”
The moment Huo Sijiu, who was standing outside the main door, heard these words, a shockingly cold hostility immediately rose up on his handsome face.
However, the old man was not the least bit afraid.
Even a hint of extremely disappointed disgust appeared on his old face, which had no trace of warmth, after seeing this expression on his face.
“Am I wrong? The two of them would have had the audacity to run to the ancestral hall to steal something if they hadn’t gotten your permission? Huo Sijiu, I really didn’t expect that you were such a person, one thing in front of you, but one thing behind your back, if you really didn’t want to, then at that time you directly and explicitly told me, I wouldn’t force you, and why play this game along with two women now?”
This last sentence was quite ruthless!
Leng Xu, who arrived afterwards, saw with his own eyes the man standing by the car in front of him, and after a handsome face faded in blood at a speed visible to the naked eye, he immediately rushed over.
“President, calm down!”
“……”
No one paid any attention to him, and all that responded to him was the scarlet that was pouring from the man’s eyes at an even faster rate!
This was definitely not acceptable.
In his desperation, Leng Xu could only grab his arm and bellowed, “President, the wife is still over there, she’s still waiting for you!”
Then, it was this sentence that saw the murderous aura that was rolling violently on his body slowly calm down.
This sentence, Leng Xu, as someone who had followed him for so many years, actually knew very well what kind of impact it would have on him.
It was impossible for him to covet Huo!
This man, he was too conceited and too tough, he could casually take out ten billion after being abandoned by Huo, that meant that he was definitely capable of creating another empire after leaving Huo.
Moreover, he was also lonely by nature.
Such a person, to put it in layman’s terms, is that even if he were to starve to death on the streets one day, he would not suffer you to beg for pity half the time.
So, why should this old man insult him like this?
Did he really know this son?
When Lengxu finally saw this man finally go over and carry the mistress back, he didn’t dare to stay a moment longer, and as soon as the two got into the car, he immediately took them and flew away.
He was really afraid of getting into trouble.
Up to that point, the door of the small courtyard of the Wen family had not been opened again that day.
—
When Wen Shuxu woke up, it was already nightfall.
She opened her eyes and at first saw the orange light overhead, she didn’t remember for a moment what had happened to her.
Until, a few moments later, memories from before she pa*sed out came flooding back to her mind.
In a flash, she sat up straight!
“You’re finally awake? It wasn’t easy at all.”
Just at this time Wen Jin came in.
But strangely enough, his tone was grim and strange, and after seeing her awake, he had completely lost his usual respect and politeness.
Wen Shuxu: “……”
Just for a moment, she suddenly snapped out of it.
At once, she didn’t care what his attitude was, and immediately hurriedly asked, “How did I come back? Who brought me back?”
“Who else could it be but brother-in-law? Sister, what the hell were you thinking? How could you do such a thing? Do you know how ugly brother-in-law’s face looked when he carried you back?”
“……”
Wen Shuxu couldn’t listen to this anymore, she panicked and immediately got off the bed before running out to look for someone.
However, to her great disappointment, she searched all up and down the mansion and saw no one.
Including the three children, who weren’t there either.
Was he angry?
Didn’t even want to see her anymore, did he? He wasn’t even here anymore, and he had taken the children with him.
She lost her composure and was about to go out and look for them.
At that moment, the children’s voices suddenly came from outside: “Finally we are home, brother, help me carry them, Ruo Ruo can’t carry them anymore.”
“Who told you to pick such a big one, you deserve it if you can’t carry it.”
“Boing~~~”
Wen Shuxu immediately rushed out from inside.
