Chen Yanzhuo nodded, "Be careful, don't let him notice."
"I understand. I won't disturb your rest. Take care of your illness first." As Zhao Wei said this, he prepared to leave.
"By the way, can you let Vivian take care of me in the next few days?" Chen Yanzhuo suddenly said.
Hearing that, Zhao Wei frowned, "Vivian? How did you... Is it because of Miss Huo? "
"She seems to be interested in me." Chen Yanzhuo said.
"What?" Really? This is good news." When Zhao Wei heard this, he was obviously overjoyed.
"You think this is a good thing?" Chen Yanzhuo looked at him and asked.
"Of course, we were most afraid that she would fall in love with that imposter, weren't we? Now that she has fallen in love with you, we don't need to worry about him being bewitched by that fake Fu Muyun." Zhao Wei said as if that was the case. However, he soon understood Chen Yanzhuo's concern."Are you worried for her safety?"
"Before this mission ends, I don't want her to be in any danger. Furthermore, with my current situation, no one can guarantee that I will be able to escape from this mission unscathed. I've already given her a taste of the pain of losing a loved one, and I don't want her to experience that despair again." When Chen Yanzhuo said this, his expression was sorrowful.
There was nothing in this world that was more sorrowful than not daring to recognize the person in front of him, even when the person he loved was him.
"I understand. I will arrange for Vivian to come and take care of you." Zhao Wei did not dare to persuade him anymore. He knew that it would be painful for him to show his love in front of the woman he loved.
Huo Xiwen slept at home until the next morning.
When she woke up, it was already 9 in the morning.
After washing up, he prepared to go downstairs for breakfast.
He was surprised to find her aunt, Tang Yingyue, sitting on the sofa in the hall. She had arrived at some point and was chatting with her mother.
Xu Lan stood beside her and flattered her from time to time.
Seeing the two of them, Huo XIwen was ready to leave the scene and turn back, but Xu Lan had caught her sharp eyes.
"Miss Huo, you're up." Xu Lan shouted at her back that had just turned around.
At that moment, Tang Yingyue's gaze shot over as well."Xi Wen, you're up. Why didn't you come greet me when you saw me?"
With that, he began to criticize Zhou Wanru again, "Wanru, I'm not talking about you. Ximen Wen's disrespectful nature is truly bad. With her appearance, when she marries in the future and goes to someone else's house, she will be told that she doesn't have a home tutor."
It just so happened that she hadn't even released the grievances she had suffered at Chen Yanzhuo's place. She turned around, walked up to Tang Yingyue with a cold expression, and said with a cold tone, "I don't need aunt to worry about my tutoring. In any case, no matter who I marry in the future, I probably won't marry aunt. So you don't have to worry about me."
"You..." Tang Yingyue didn't expect that she would open her mouth to choke him, so her face immediately paled in anger.
It was Xu Lan who was by her side who kept her cool. She only smiled and said, "No wonder big brother said that the Huo family's big sister has a sharp tongue and has an honest personality. It seems that big brother's words are not bad."Big sister Xi Wen, your aunt has no ill intentions in her words just now, she's just reminding you, after all, you know, high class families all follow etiquette rules, this is also because I'm afraid that you'll be too careless. At that time, if you unintentionally offend others, you don't even know it yourself."
"Miss Xu, right?" Speaking of eloquence, I really can't compare to you, black can make you white. What does Aunt mean? I don't think I need you to translate it. As for that brother of yours that you mentioned earlier, forgive me for being blunt, but aunt is here discussing tutoring with me."Such people will rarely appear at the banquet of the Huo Family. Otherwise, if we were to lose the face of the Huo Family, I really would not know who to seek justice with." Huo XIwen didn't intend to give Xu Lan any face at all. This little girl seemed to be that kind of person, one who would speak ill of others, and she didn't like her at all.
Her words caused Tang Yingyue's anger to surge. Just as she was about to reprimand her, she heard Zhou Wanru take the initiative to ask, "Xi Wen, what did you say? Is there anyone who treats their guests this way? "
"Guest?" Mommy, do you think they are guests? They think they are the master." Huo Xi Wen said as he looked at Tang Ying Yue coldly.
In the past, the position she occupied had always been occupied by her father, the head of the clan.
"Wanru, look, this is the good daughter you taught." Tang Yingyue was so angry that her breathing became ragged. Ever since Huo Jiabao had taken charge of the Huo Family, her status in the Huo Family had skyrocketed. Everyone was respectful when they saw her. Even Zhou Wanru felt the same way, but when she went to Huo XIwen, she didn't even buy it. This made it difficult for her to keep her temper.
"Aunt, don't be angry. Have you forgotten what we came here for?" Seeing that Tang Yingyue was about to fly into a rage, Xu Lan hurriedly consoled her.
When Huo XIwen heard these words, he vaguely felt that something was wrong. Could it be that these two people had not come here today just to scold him?
What other purpose did he have?
With Xu Lan's reminder, Tang Ying suppressed the anger in her heart and remained silent with a straight face.
At this time, Xu Lan smiled and said to Zhou Wanru, "Aunt Huo, it's like this. Regarding the banquet, after brother went back, he was very regretful. He originally wanted to personally come and apologize, but he was afraid that this would be too abrupt, and that the anger in Big Sister Xi Wen's heart would not be quelled, so he didn't dare to show his face. He deliberately made me and his aunt come and apologize for him, and told Big Sister Xi Wen to calm down and forgive his actions that night."
Hearing her words, Huo XIwen sneered, "So you guys are here to apologize? I thought you guys were here to get even with me."
"Big sister Xi Wen is joking." Xu Lan smiled as she looked at her.
Huo XIwen was a little scared by her gaze. That fake smile on her face made him feel very uncomfortable.
Zhou Wanru also didn't want her relationship with Tang Yingyue to get out of hand, so she said amiably, "Young Master Tang, we're all relatives now, it's good that you've said the wrong things. You don't need to specifically ask Eldest Sis to come and apologize."
"Aunt Huo, you are generous enough to not care about it. What happened that day was indeed my brother's fault. He should apologize." I just don't know if big sister Xi Wen is willing to forgive my big brother." Xu Lan said as she glanced at Huo XIwen.
