Chapter 190 - The Devil Who Protects His Sister
It was just a faint glance, as if it was unintentional.
And then she retracted her gaze.
The two people standing at the corner saw her looking in their direction and quickly retreated.
They heaved a sigh of relief when they saw that she was only looking over unintentionally and did not seem to notice them.
These two people were Yuan Xi and Yuan Yuan, the siblings who had left first.
After their car drove for a while, Yuan Xi suddenly asked Yuan Yuan to stop by the side and he got out of the car.
Not knowing what he was going to do, Yuan Yuan quickly got out of the car and followed.
Seeing that Yuan Xi was standing at a corner of the wall, she walked over and stood beside him. Just as she was about to ask, she saw Yan Jinyu and the rest surrounded.
Yuan Yuan was so frightened that she almost exclaimed. It was only after Yuan Xi said "don"t make a sound" that she covered her lips and kept quiet.
They had all seen what happened next.
Yuan Xi"s eyes were filled with shock, not to mention Yuan Yuan.
He was shocked by Huo Siyu"s skills and even more shocked that Yan Jinyu had the courage to remain calm in such a situation and that she had actually interacted with Chen Xiaotian before.
Yuan Xi retracted his thoughts and said, "Let"s go back."
"…Alright." There was shock and curiosity, but Yuan Yuan wasn"t a nosy person, so she didn"t intend to probe further.
After taking two steps, she stopped and looked at Yuan Xi, "Xi"er, let"s not interact with these people in the future."
Yuan Xi"s eyes flickered. "Alright."

On the other hand, after hearing Yan Jinyu"s words, Huo Siyu slowly retracted her hand. With a turn of her palm, the lancet in her hand disappeared. No one knew where she had hidden it.
This scene made w.a.n.g Quan even more afraid to speak up.
Even when he knew that his hand was going to be crippled.
However, compared to having his hands crippled, he didn"t want to die.
"Be careful in the future. Don"t have any designs on beautiful girls anymore. You might meet someone like us who has trained for a few years, understand?"
w.a.n.g Quan covered the wound on his neck and nodded repeatedly with lingering fear, "Yes, yes, yes, yes."
Huo Siyu turned to look at the Xiang siblings, who were still in shock, before turning to Huo Sisi.
She smiled faintly, "Huo Sisi, looking at you. Are you frightened?"
"What"s there to be afraid of? Didn"t I say that I trained for a few years in Country F in the ski park previously? On the slide, I was fine even when I fell at such a fast speed. It"s obvious that I"m quite skilled."
"Don"t overreact."
"However, Beauty Yu is right. We were indeed a little frightened after being stopped by people. Even if we weren"t frightened, our mood was also affected. So, I"m afraid we can"t go to the hospital with you. You can take Young Master Xiang"s car."
The more Huo Siyu spoke, the more Huo Sisi"s expression twisted.
The crux was that as soon as Huo Siyu finished speaking, Xiang Jie said angrily, "Who wants her to ride in our family"s car!"
"Huo Sisi, you left me in the lurch. I won"t let this matter rest! Hmph, why go to the hospital? We"re not familiar with Cao Ming. I"m not going!"
Xiang Jie looked at Xiang Qing, whose face was a little swollen, but was so shocked by everything that he forgot about the pain. "Brother, let"s go home!"
She then turned to Huo Siyu. "Second Miss Huo, thank you for today. I"ll remember your favor."
She dragged Xiang Qing away.
"What are you going to do now that they"re gone, Huo Sisi? Are you going back to the Huo Family with us?" Before Huo Sisi could reply, Huo Siyu said, "Cao Ming is your friend. The Huo Family and the hospital are in the opposite direction. If you go back to the Huo Family first, you"ll have to make a big detour. Or are you not going to visit your friend today? If you don"t go, you were the one who asked him out. I wonder if the Cao Family will go straight to the Huo Family to ask you for an explanation."
"If the Cao Family really go look for the Huo Family, Mom and Dad will probably be unhappy. Mom and Dad seem to have taken my joke yesterday seriously. Now, Mom and Dad should already have some opinions about you."
"In that case, I think you should make a trip to the hospital first. Then, take a taxi yourself. Beauty Yu and I will go back first."
"Beauty Yu, let"s go."
Yan Jinyu smiled and nodded. She didn"t look at Huo Sisi, whose face was twisted.
The two of them headed straight for the parking lot.
Looking at their backs as they left, Chen Ye called for people to bring those injured people away. Looking at w.a.n.g Quan, who still looked like he was in a daze, he sighed softly, "Let"s go, w.a.n.g Quan."
Normally, w.a.n.g Quan wouldn"t have left Huo Sisi alone after pursuing her for so many years. But now, how could he be in the mood to care about Huo Sisi?
He followed Chen Ye and went away.
However, Chen Ye looked at Huo Sisi sympathetically before he left.
He didn"t know what this Eldest Miss Huo was thinking that she actually dared to offend Second Miss Huo.
Just based on Huo Siyu"s words earlier, he also had some ideas after he calmed down and thought about it.
It didn"t seem to be a coincidence that he suddenly received news that Xiang Jie was here. Someone had deliberately done so.
Huo Sisi actually dared to use him!
He had more important things to do today, so he would let Huo Sisi off for the time being. After he was done, he would slowly settle this score with her!
***
On the other side, Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu sat in the Huo Family"s car.
"Huo Sisi went to the hospital to visit her friend. She"s not coming with us." This sentence stopped the driver from asking.
The driver naturally favored Huo Sisi since he drove Huo Sisi to school.
However, since Huo Siyu had already said so, he did not dare to say anything.
"Alright, Second Missy."
"I wonder where Second Missy and Eldest Miss Yan are going next?"
Return to the Huo Family?
Impossible.
Huo Siyu had invited Yan Jinyu over to bring her around South City. The excuse of returning to the Huo Family earlier was just nonsense.
After giving the driver the location, he sent them over.
It was already dark when the two of them returned to the Huo Family.
Huo Sisi, who took a taxi to the hospital, arrived home earlier than them.
As soon as the two of them stepped into the main building of the Huo Family, they saw a group of people sitting in the living room.
Other than Huo Lin, Sun Xiangxiang, and Huo Sisi, Huo Xuan was also present.
Of course, it wasn"t just them. There were two other people.
Chen Ye and a man in his late thirties.
He had a fierce look and was obviously not a kind person.
However, when he saw Yan Jinyu walking in, he immediately stood up in surprise. He even put on a kind smile on his fierce face. "Eldest Miss Yan."
Then, as if he felt that it wasn"t appropriate to only greet Yan Jinyu in the Huo Family"s territory, he turned his gaze to Huo Siyu. "Miss Huo."
It wasn"t "Second Miss Huo", but "Miss Huo".
It seemed like he was also a tactful person who could tell that in Huo Xuan"s heart, Huo Siyu was the legitimate eldest daughter of the Huo Family.
"My brothers were insensible and offended you today. I specially came to apologize to the two of you."
This man was Chen Ye"s elder brother, Chen Xiaotian.
However, although Chen Xiaotian was greeting Huo Siyu, his gaze was always on Yan Jinyu.
Actually, the two of them had just arrived at the Huo Family. The Huo Family only knew that they were here to apologize, but they didn"t know who they were apologizing to. They only thought that they had an unhappy incident with Huo Xuan and specially came to apologize.
They didn"t expect that after seeing Huo Xuan, they only said polite words like "Sorry for disturbing you" and nothing else.
At that moment, Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu returned.
"What do you mean by that, Boss Chen?" Huo Xuan asked with a pale face.
His gaze was sharp and his tone was unkind.
Huo Lin and Sun Xiangxiang"s expressions were a little ugly.
"I"m sorry. This is the fault of my brothers, but…"
Halfway through his sentence, Chen Xiaotian suddenly paused and looked at Huo Sisi, who was sitting at the side. "Miss Huo was also present at that time. Didn"t she mention this to you guys when she came back?"
This question was intentional.
Obviously, Chen Xiaotian had already found out about Huo Sisi"s scheme from Chen Ye.
"Sisi, why didn"t you say that something happened after you were back?" One could tell from her tone that Sun Xiangxiang was very unhappy.
Huo Sisi had spent a lot of time dealing with the Cao Family in the hospital. If not for her status as the eldest daughter of the Huo Family, Cao Ming"s mother would have slapped her on the spot.
However, even though she didn"t slap Huo Sisi, her son suddenly crippled his legs. The doctor even said that it might be very difficult for him to stand up ever again. The Cao Family"s att.i.tude towards Huo Sisi was very bad, especially Cao Ming"s mother. She would scold all the unpleasant words.
In the end, the Cao Family only let Huo Sisi go after Cao Ming pleaded for her.
Cao Ming spoke up for her and then told her to go home and rest early. He told her to remember to send him some bone soup early tomorrow and Huo Sisi naturally couldn"t reject him.
Just as she returned to the Huo Family angrily, Huo Siyu and Yan Jinyu didn"t come back. After being questioned by Sun Xiangxiang, she roughly told them about the accident at the ski resort. She said that she went to the hospital to visit her friend and wasn"t with them. Sun Xiangxiang kept calling Huo Siyu and only stopped after she found out where Huo Siyu was.
However, she was still reprimanded by Sun Xiangxiang. She was saying that since she had brought Huo Siyu and Yan Jinyu out to play, she shouldn"t have called those indecent people.
Huo Lin also lectured her.
Huo Sisi was even angrier.
Then, she saw Huo Xuan return.
Huo Sisi"s emotions were even more complicated when Huo Xuan, who was so busy that his feet barely touched the ground, returned to the Huo Family. She was happy and angry at the same time.
She was happy that Huo Xuan was back and she could see him. She was angry that he obviously didn"t come back because of her, but because of that extra guest at home!
Under such circ.u.mstances, how could she be in the mood to say anything? Furthermore, she was the one who had done that today. She wasn"t stupid. Why would she take the initiative to mention it?
Who knew that Chen Xiaotian and Chen Ye would actually visit them personally!
"S-sorry. Too many things happened today. My friend might not be able to stand up for the rest of his life. I was a little frustrated and forgot about it."
"I wanted to say it, but Brother Chen and Boss Chen came. I-I didn"t have the chance to speak again."
Huo Xuan threw a glance at Huo Sisi and his sharp and cold gaze frightened her.
Just as Huo Sisi was about to collapse and couldn"t sit still, Huo Xuan retracted his gaze.
However, even so, Huo Sisi would probably be so frightened that she couldn"t stand straight if she wasn"t sitting on the sofa.
"Come and sit first." Huo Xuan looked at the two people who had entered the house.
Then, he looked at Chen Xiaotian. "Tell me, what exactly is going on? How dare anyone touch my sister in South City.. This matter isn"t so easily resolved."
