Chapter 139

"Aunt Xiu, is there anything you want to tell me?" Huo Xianchen asked softly.

Wu Xiumei glanced at him sideways, and couldn't help laughing: "How do you know that I have something to tell you?"

Huo Xianchen didn't say anything, just looked at her.

Wu Xiumei didn't show off, she said to him: "Do you like my Yuan Yuan?"

Although it was a questioning word, the tone was very firm.

Before, she really thought that Huo Xianchen just wanted to repay them, but she was not a fool, after a long time, she could see that this child was not purely because of this reason.

Huo Xianchen's expression became very serious, he nodded heavily, and said to Wu Xiumei: "I don't want to hide from you, I really like Yuan Yuan."

He even fell in love with Jiang Yuanyuan from a very young age.

He has fallen in love with this little girl since the little girl used her thin figure to block him and help him block other people's attacks.

When he came back this time, his purpose was naturally very clear.

Wu Xiumei nodded lightly, and said to him: "We have already seen it."

After a pause, she continued, "You must be able to tell that Lao Wan and I like you very much."

Hearing what Wu Xiumei said, Huo Xianchen couldn't help but chuckled and nodded.

He is not a fool, of course he knows that.

"What Lao Wan and I mean is that Yuan Yuan hasn't graduated yet, and now is the most critical time. As her relatives, we naturally have to do our best to get her admitted to the ideal school!" Wu Xiumei said softly.

The meaning of Wu Xiumei's words is already very clear, they have no objection to the two of them getting together again in the future, but now is the most critical moment for Jiang Yuanyuan, so it should not affect her study.

Huo Xianchen naturally heard the meaning of her words, and a gleam of joy appeared on his face.

"Thank you, Aunt Xiu." Huo Xianchen said sincerely.

Wu Xiumei waved her hand indifferently: "It's too early to thank you now, and I can see that Yuanyuan doesn't have that kind of thought for you. Whether you can be together in the future is still unknown!"

After hearing Wu Xiumei's words, Huo Xianchen didn't care.

Recently, Jiang Yuanyuan's attitude towards him has gradually changed, and he can detect it.

Moreover, there is no other opposite sex around her, this is also his chance.

It's just that the current him is indeed because of Jiang Yuanyuan's studies, that's why he didn't express his affection for her.

When the time is right, he will naturally reveal his feelings to her.

Wu Xiumei saw that he understood in her heart, so she didn't say anything, she just nodded lightly: "I won't interfere with the affairs of you young people, there is only one thing, you can't affect Yuan Yuan's study now, other things , you can figure it out yourself."

Then, he said to him, "It's getting late, go back early! You have to go to work tomorrow morning."

Huo Xianchen responded, said goodbye to Wu Xiumei, then got on the motorcycle and disappeared into the darkness.

Wu Xiumei watched him go, then turned and went upstairs.

Just as he was about to go up, he saw a figure standing not far away.

Wu Xiumei took a closer look and found out that this person was Cuiping's mother downstairs.

It looked like she had been standing here for a while.

Seeing that Wu Xiumei found her, she walked out of the shadows and said to her with a smile, "Xiumei, what are you doing?"

Wu Xiumei gave her a cold look, and then said to her: "Did you hear everything?"

Cuiping's mother originally wanted to pretend to be confused, but seeing Wu Xiumei's expression, she nodded with a sneer: "I heard a little bit."

Wu Xiumei didn't intend to make false claims with her, so she said to her directly: "Don't talk nonsense if you hear that, I believe you also know why Meizhu was beaten by me."

She knew that these gossip women could spread rumors randomly by grabbing a topic. If she pretended that this hadn't happened, rumors about Jiang Yuanyuan would spread throughout the family courtyard again tomorrow morning.

After hearing Wu Xiumei's blatant threat, Cuiping's mother couldn't help swallowing, and the expression on her face became even more embarrassing: "No! No! I won't spread this matter to the outside world! You know that too , I'm not the kind of person who can chew people's right and wrong!"

Wu Xiumei sneered, went upstairs without saying anything.

Cuiping's mother looked at her back and couldn't help giving her a soft pew.

Wu Xiumei just turned around and saw her movements.

Her expression froze, and the expression on her face became more and more embarrassing.

"I won't tell! Only I know about this matter. If I tell the outside world, wouldn't you know about it?" Cuiping's mother said with a smile.

Wu Xiumei didn't bother to argue with her, so as not to annoy her, and then go outside to talk nonsense.

Back upstairs, Jiang Yuanyuan has already returned to his room.

She came to the door of Jiang Yuanyuan's room and gently pushed the door open.

Fortunately, Jiang Yuanyuan didn't enter the space. He was sitting on the stool beside the bed and folding clothes. Seeing Wu Xiumei coming in, he raised his head and smiled and asked, "Mom, what's the matter?"

Wu Xiumei shook her head with a light smile, and whispered: "It's nothing, you should go to bed early at night, don't be too late."

Jiang Yuanyuan responded, saying that he knew.

"I see, you should rest early too!"

Just when Wu Xiumei was about to close the door and go out, she suddenly saw the emerald seal on the table.

She reached out to pick it up curiously, and asked suspiciously, "What is this? I haven't seen you take it out before?"

As he said that, he turned it over and saw Jiang Yuanyuan's name engraved on the back, so he asked, "The seal? Where did it come from?"

Jiang Yuanyuan didn't hide anything, and told her directly: "Huo You sent it."

After thinking about it, I added, "Birthday gift."

Wu Xiumei rubbed the cold jadeite in her hand, frowned and said, "Is this jade? Doesn't it look cheap?"

Jiang Yuanyuan nodded lightly: "It should be jadeite."

Even though Wu Xiumei has no experience, she still knows that jadeite is very precious. She never thought that Huo Xianchen would give it to Jiang Yuanyuan like this.

"Hey, this thing is not cheap, we can't accept such expensive things from others for no reason!" Wu Xiumei continued.

Jiang Yuanyuan also nodded: "I know, I am going to give him something of similar value in return when I have the opportunity."

Seeing this, Wu Xiumei agreed: "You are right to think so."
