Six years later, I and my four cubs blew up my ex-husband's house

Upon hearing this, Shi Ye frowned slightly.

He glanced at his phone, but the screen was blank; there wasn't a single new message.

Why didn't you say anything before going to your grandparents' house?

Moreover, her hand injury hasn't healed yet; is it safe for her to run around like this?

A vague suspicion arose in his heart: she went to her grandparents' house to avoid him.

Tokino asked almost instinctively, "When will she be able to come back?"

Xia's mother smiled gently and replied softly, "Didn't she ask the school for a few days off? I think she probably just went out to clear her head."

They'll probably be back in two or three days, and should be able to return to school normally next week.

She didn't go into the specifics of the arrangements, but I'll let you know as soon as she gets back, okay?

Shino hesitated for a moment, seemingly lost in thought.

However, he could only nod slightly and reply, "Okay, then I'll trouble you."

Oh, by the way... Auntie and Uncle, please take these supplements home!

As he spoke, he solemnly handed over the beautifully packaged gift box with both hands.

The two elders initially declined, insisting that Shi Ye take it back for himself to eat.

Tokino explained sincerely, "There's really still a lot left at home; it would be a waste if we couldn't finish it."

Seeing his resolute attitude, the two elders finally stopped refusing, accepted the gift, and thanked him repeatedly, saying, "Thank you so much, you're too kind."

Shi Ye nodded, then bid farewell to the two elders and prepared to leave.

The two elders didn't try to keep her, but smiled kindly and said, "When Xia Lin comes back, you must come to our house for a meal again. Auntie will cook something delicious for you."

Shino responded in a low voice, turned around, and drove away.

On his way back, he tried calling Charlene, but could not get through.

As he drove, he pondered Charlene's feelings.

There's been no news at all, and I can't even get through on the phone.

Why is that?

That girl is really hard to figure out.

This gradually made him feel somewhat depressed.

Upon arriving at the club, Aaron greeted her with concern and asked, "How is Charlene? Did those things online affect her?"

Tokino was puzzled and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Aaron looked slightly surprised and explained, "Don't you know? Look, look at her personal account, the video is hidden, and her fans are crying, begging her to release it."

Also, the couple-themed videos posted by Jenny and Jessica have all disappeared for some unknown reason.

People speculate that perhaps they felt this content had a negative impact.

Shi Ye frowned, a hint of confusion and concern in his eyes, and asked, "When did this happen?"

Aaron answered truthfully, "Just last night, around midnight."

Tokino immediately understood.

It seems he didn't sleep much last night, dealing with these matters and also apologizing to himself.

Shino's brows furrowed even more.

He paused for a moment, then immediately took out his phone and sent a message to Xia Lin.

"I'll call you if your phone is off. Contact me as soon as you turn it on."

Immediately afterwards, he dialed Sister Xue's number.

Sister Xue answered the phone quickly.

Shi Ye said in a calm tone, "Sister Xue, I need to trouble you with something."

Could you please help suppress this news related to Xia Lin? Let's not let the impact continue to escalate.

He paused, then added, "Yesterday's trending topics caused such a huge uproar, and the public's attention was so high that it was difficult to suppress."

However, now that a day has passed, the level of attention should have decreased somewhat, making it easier to operate.

Without hesitation, Sister Xue replied, "Okay, no problem, I'll arrange for someone to handle it right away."

Shi Ye breathed a slight sigh of relief and said softly, "Thank you for your help."

After that, the two hung up the phone without saying another word.

After the call ended, Shi Ye didn't linger and went straight to the training ground to begin the day's training.

With the date of the international competition fast approaching, time is running out.

I took time out of my schedule to film a variety show, which disrupted my training plan and caused me to fall behind.

In addition, his coach recently enrolled him in an intercontinental competition.

This means that he needs to double his efforts in training and preparing for matches.

Therefore, he must get busy as soon as possible and make the most of every minute.

Soon, Shino drove the race car onto the track, and with the roar of the engine, the car shot away like an arrow.

He ran several laps on the track at full speed, constantly adjusting his pace of cornering and acceleration, so focused that he almost forgot about time.

He only slowly drove the race car back to the pit lane and stopped when the fuel was almost exhausted and the dashboard issued a warning.

When he returned to the rest area and sat down, his phone rang.

Shino picked up his phone and saw the caller ID flashing on the screen; it was Marcy's name.

So he quickly answered the phone.

Marcy's voice on the other end of the phone clearly carried a hint of worry.

She said, "I was planning to go see Charlene, but I couldn't get through to her on the phone, and she didn't respond to my messages."

I was a little worried, so I called my aunt. She said that Xia Lin had gone to her grandparents' house.

Are you aware of this?

Tokino replied, "I know, I've already been there, but I didn't see her."

"It's over."

Marcy's tone turned somber as she said, "She's definitely hiding again."

Shi Ye frowned, a hint of understanding in his voice, and asked, "Hidden away???"

"Oh, yes!"

Marcy said seriously, "This incident has caused quite a stir, and the public pressure is so great. Given her personality, she must be finding it difficult to face it."

She was timid and sensitive about this matter.

Now...after everything that's happened, she's probably even less able to face you honestly.

Tokino was even more puzzled, "Why can't you face me?"

I don't really care about what happened this time, and I don't mean to blame her.

Marcy sighed deeply, her tone tinged with helplessness, "You really don't care, but the problem is, she has absolutely no idea about it!"

You never told her that you already knew the whole truth.

Moreover, I bet she feels really embarrassed, even a little ashamed, right now.

Just like I asked you in the car earlier, if you were in this situation, wouldn't you find it particularly strange?

You replied that you didn't think so.

But have you considered that, in the eyes of others, especially those who don't know the inside story, her actions might really seem a bit...

She paused briefly, her voice gradually lowering, as if she couldn't bear to continue: "How should I put it? It's not very reserved, and it might even lead to misunderstandings."

Also, you should have known in your heart for a long time that Charlene likes you, right? It's impossible that you weren't aware of it at all.
