Chapter 8
Huo Xihuai froze in place.

He never thought that one day he would see his brother and this person appear in front of him in such an intimate manner.

Due to the violent impact, he froze for a moment and did not move.

And Huo Yuyan just remembered that there was such a person in the family, his scalp exploded, and he stiffly wanted to put Shen Yuntang down, but Shen Yuntang held him motionless, very stubborn.

Huo Yuyan's teeth clenched, he looked up helplessly and said: "...Xiao Huai, have you had breakfast? Go and eat."

He didn't communicate much with Huo Xihuai, and he didn't know what to say, so he could only bite the bullet A few words of politeness, just begging him not to continue to witness his embarrassment.

Huo Xihuai opened his mouth, closed it again, and fell silent.

The housekeeper suddenly came out from nowhere, and walked up with his arms neatly: "Go, let's go, children, don't look at this."

Huo Xihuai looked back as he was being led away, as if he still couldn't accept it.

Huo Yuyan: "..."

He didn't do anything unspeakable!

Why was Huo Xihuai looking at him with a weird sense of guilt, as if he had betrayed his country and defected to the enemy.

He breathed a sigh of relief, but when he lowered his head again, he found that Shen Yuntang's expression was very strange.

It can't be said to be stunned, it can only be said to be sluggish.

Huo Yuyan frowned lightly, "Shen Yuntang?"

Can you get off him first before distracting?

Shen Yuntang suddenly tightened his grip on his arm, and asked him: "Is he your brother? Huo Xihuai?"

Huo Yuyan's expression read "Otherwise".

Shen Yuntang's expression could immediately tell that she was not happy.

Huo Yuyan paused for a moment, and was just beginning to wonder where Huo Xihuai offended her again, when she heard her say with a sulky face, "When will school start?" "..." Huo Yuyan weighed how much she rejected

Huo Xihuai , I feel that there may indeed be a big contradiction.

He thought about it, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Huai's situation is quite special, he can't go to school yet."

Shen Yuntang's expression was visibly disappointed.

Huo Yuyan fell silent, only to realize that he hadn't mentioned it to Shen Yuntang.

After being under the same roof for a long time in the future, he felt that it was necessary to explain the reason to her clearly.

"His father, that is, my uncle died on business, his stepfather is a gambler, his mother doesn't care about him, and the elders in the family are estranged from him, so he lives here." Huo Yuyan paused, "I don't get along with him much

. Huo Xihuai, he... is a little bored, easy to get into trouble, but he is not an annoying child."

He calmed down, and suddenly remembered an idea that had once appeared in his mind.

Although it seemed unreasonable to Shen Yuntang, it didn't seem like she would accept it at all.

But... what if?

He paused, and said bravely, "Although this is not a responsibility that you should bear, I would like to ask you one thing."

Shen Yuntang snorted coldly and turned his head away.

It was rare for Huo Yuyan to feel that he was a bit brazen and couldn't bear the image of an indifferent elite. He continued: "May I ask you to take care of him when you are at home?"

Then he added, "It doesn't matter, if he wants to go to class, let the housekeeper hire a tutor, if he wants to go to school, let the driver take him there, if he is hungry, there is a cook, When he was sick and went to the hospital, his only request was to pay more attention to him."

"I don't care?" Shen Yuntang glared at him.

There is nothing to say, Huo Yuyan gritted his teeth and said, "I don't go home often."

Shen Yuntang frowned, "Is it difficult to make a phone call every day?"

Huo Yuyan: "..."

Absolutely, absolutely scolding him for turning a blind eye to his family since he got married.

He was silent for a while, rationally told him to admit defeat, "...in the future."

Seeing that Shen Yuntang did not agree with his plan, Huo Yuyan said the last sentence without much hope.

"He is too short of relatives. He needs to communicate with people face to face."

After a moment of silence, he looked up at Shen Yuntang, and found that her eyes were fixed on the ground in the yard.

Shen Yuntang turned to look at him.

Huo Yuyan: "...OK."

Shen Yuntang

said blankly, "I still lack a lot of things." Huo Yuyan: "..." He was speechless for a moment, "Just brush."

​​It was rare for his wife to have a good look at him.

...

At the breakfast table, the two sat facing each other at a distance.

Huo Yuyan was thinking about whether it was his turn to cook Western or Chinese style today, so Ji Liang pushed three dining carts over and put them on the long table one by one.

Huo Yuyan was stunned for a moment, seeing him lift the lid with incomparable hospitality, introduce the dishes to Shen Yuntang enthusiastically, his eyebrows were beaming. The dishes were a mix of Chinese and Western dishes, and there were also some that shouldn't be there. For example, a hot pot with delicious beef tripe was placed in front of his eyes.

Although the portions are not big enough for two or three people to finish, the dishes are beyond his imagination for breakfast.

Huo Yuyan was a little speechless for a moment, he wanted to speak but stopped, and he stopped talking but wanted to.

Didn't the chefs in the family have a lot of opinions on Shen Yuntang? He even made a fuss with him, which episode did this develop into? Competition to stay? So so hard?

After listening to the introduction, Shen Yuntang nodded without changing his face, and dropped the knife very naturally.

The maid enthusiastically tied the square scarf for her.

As for Huo Yuyan, it was deserted.

He tied the only perfunctory beef rib on the plate, twitched his eyebrows, and suddenly asked the chef: "Are you new here?"

Ji Liang was stunned for a moment, before he noticed Bo Le's husband. He straightened his clothes, and said politely and proudly: "From now on, I will be a long-term chef. Thanks to Ms. Shen's insight."

Huo Yuyan: "... so long-term chef, can I have two more meals?"

Ji Liang was still polite: "Of course, as my employer, your wishes are very important."

So Huo Yuyan was assigned to the dishes that Shen Yuntang hadn't seen a few times.

... He didn't see how important he was.

How long has it been since he was away from home, and his family status has dropped so quickly.

Huo Yuyan took a mouthful of cold noodles in grief and indignation.

The housekeeper and Huo Xihuai came downstairs.

I don't know what the housekeeper chatted with him, but Huo Xihuai who came downstairs again had a strange expression on his face. He looked at them quietly for a few times before he was pressed on the seat by the housekeeper Li with his arms around his shoulders.

Ji Liang was taken aback for a moment, and also gave him a portion of the dish.

Huo Xihuai's eating was very quiet, just like him, silent and silent, like a blind spot in the crowd, almost no one would notice him.

The three of them finished their breakfast in eerie silence without asking anyone else.

After Ji Liang served tea again, Huo Yuyan rubbed his wrist and told Huo Xihuai his decision.

"Xiao Huai, my brother is very busy with work, so I can't communicate with you in time. I have already entrusted your sister-in-law, and she will—" before he finished

speaking, he was interrupted by two people at the same time.

"What?"

"Don't call me sister-in-law!"

One was shocked, the other angry.

Their gazes collided, Huo Xihuai quickly retracted, lowered his head, and clenched his fists.

Shen Yuntang yelled angrily: "Who is the sister-in-law? Miss Shen!"

The people around bowed their heads and shut up silently in fear.

Look at Mr. Huo, how disgusted you are, she has not allowed us to be called Mrs.

Huo Yuyan: "...Okay, okay, Ms. Shen. Then Ms. Shen will communicate with you in the future. If you have anything to say, feel free to talk to her. If she..." If she doesn't want to listen

, then I can't help it.

Huo Yuyan swallowed this sentence wisely.

It was getting late, and he decided not to stay in this painful and sad place, got up and put on his coat.

"I will call home every day in the future, and let me know if there is anything."

He took the watch and buckled it, and left.

The housekeeper hurriedly followed him to the porch, and whispered, "Sir, sir!"

Huo Yuyan stopped to look at him.

"One more thing, Madam received an invitation from Master Charles to attend their family's incense tasting party next month."

Huo Yuyan paused.

He has heard of the name of Master Charles, and his mother also likes his brand very much. It is a pity that he cannot obtain the handicrafts of the master for many years.

The Charles Family's Fragrance Club has a long-standing reputation, and tickets are hard to come by. Not long ago, Mrs. Huo asked if she could get an invitation letter, but all the famous people with many connections refused.

Just because they sent the letter internally, everyone who was invited could only go there with the approval of Master Charles.

Unless it is a luxury brand of the same level that has been cooperating for many years, a wealthy family that has used Charles's perfume since childhood, or a superstar who adores Charles' name, it is extremely difficult for others to have the opportunity to enter.

But what does the butler say now?

Shen Yuntang received an invitation from Master Charles himself.

Huo Yuyan believed it without checking. He was silent for a moment, and only then did he deeply realize that Shen Yuntang was really different from before.

Her second personality seems to have strange abilities.

Thinking of this, Huo Yuyan left a message for Huo Xihuai before starting the car.

"Shen Yuntang may have a dual personality.

Recently, the second personality is showing, remember not to provoke her."

He consciously made all instructions, started the engine and drove on the road.

The two people in the restaurant were still sitting awkwardly.

Huo Xihuai tightly curled his fingers, his palms turned red from being pinched.

He was entrusted to Shen Yuntang by his brother.

funny?

It's like handing over a fat and tender white rabbit to a wolf.

The hairs all over his body were blown up, his knuckles were white, he was staring at the table, his jaw trembling.

Shen Yuntang may explode at any time, she may overturn the table, then look at him coldly, turn and leave.

Maybe throw the cup at him at him.

He has a scar on his shoulder, which was thrown out by Shen Yuntang's jewelry rack, and he often feels a dull pain. Huo Xihuai touched his shoulder subconsciously, but remembered that it was in his previous life, and this life is gone.

His heart sank to the bottom.

On the smooth marble tabletop, the reflection of the arm started to move, his heart beat quickened, and he saw Shen Yuntang raised that hand.

Huo Xihuai's Adam's apple twitched.

He didn't dare to look up, so he could only look at the white arm from the corner of his eye, brought the tea cup to his mouth, and took a sip.

His trembling stopped, and he was taken aback.

Then, as if delusional, I heard Shen Yuntang muttering: "Swipe casually..."

Then she raised her head, sized him up with critical eyes, and continued to mutter: "Which beauty wants to bring such a big child at such a young age?" ..."

Huo Xihuai shook his hand.

She said: "I don't like gray, I'm not happy to see you wearing gray, so go out with me to buy clothes."

He froze.
