She ran away from him and was not to be offended by her sickly brother.

Before Meng Xia could open his mouth, Meng Anan, who heard that he was about to leave, said first, "No! No! You have to go to dinner with us!"

Meng Anan hugged the man's thigh. How could the reinforcements he had finally brought in leave so easily?

"Yes, you can go eat with us. You have worked hard to take care of grandma and An An during my absence. I am planning to find an opportunity to treat you to a meal."

Hearing Meng Xia's words, the man hesitated for a second and subconsciously glanced at Huo Xibai, only to see Huo Xibai suddenly step forward, put his arm around Meng Xia's shoulders, and chuckled like an owner -

"Mr. Daniel, please don't refuse. I have heard Xia Xia tell you about you a long time ago. I am very grateful to you for taking care of Meng Xia, An An and grandma."

"It's our first meeting and I haven't prepared anything for you to continue. Why don't you let me serve as a host and treat you to a meal today to express our family's gratitude."

In just two sentences, he not only included himself in the family, but also completely excluded Daniel.

The moment the words fell to the ground, the surrounding air froze.

Seeing Daniel's stunned expression, Meng Xia couldn't help but pinch Huo Xibai's waist secretly, and forced a smile, "Anyway, if you have time, let's go have a meal together."

As both men, it was impossible for Daniel not to see the provocation in Huo Xi's words. Just as he was hesitating, Meng An'an suddenly grabbed his arm and shook it——

"Uncle Daniel, just go with us. If you don't go, then I won't go either."

Hearing this, Daniel smiled and reached out to pinch Meng Anan's face, "Since you said so, I have to go if you don't want uncle to go."

"Great!"

Meng Anan threw herself into his arms happily, and glanced at Huo Xibai provocatively. Two against one, he didn't believe he couldn't win!

Huo Xibai glanced at his son's heartless appearance and couldn't help but sneer in his heart, especially with a face similar to his own.

Meng Anan didn't care what he thought and took Daniel to pack her things. As soon as the two left, Meng Xia suddenly felt a weight on her shoulders——

Huo Xibai put his chin on her face and sighed softly, "Is this little fool really my son? Why are his elbows turned outward?"

Meng Xia's eyebrows tightened when he heard this, "What nonsense are you talking about! An An doesn't know your relationship with him. He has known Daniel for a longer time, so he will naturally be closer to him."

"is it?"

Why did he feel that this boy was trying to force a hat on his father's head?

Meng Xia didn't know Huo Xibai's thoughts, so she just stretched out her hand to push him, "Okay, you still have the nerve to say An'an, didn't you act like a child just now? What words did you say that made people listen? How embarrassing.”

Although she did not have any romantic feelings for Daniel, she was still very grateful and fortunate that Daniel had taken good care of them over the years, and she did not want Huo Xibai's appearance to ruin their relationship.

Huo Xibai didn't take it seriously, "Are you embarrassed? Am I not telling the truth? If that guy didn't have any evil intentions against you, why would he be embarrassed?"

"Forehead……"

Meng Xia was speechless for a moment, and Huo Xibai couldn't help but narrowed his eyes, and his deliberately lowered voice was a bit dangerous, "Did I tell you right? Do you know what he was thinking? Did he confess to you? Or did he do something to you? Um?"

A series of questions came down, and Meng Xia didn't know how to answer. She quickly found an excuse and pushed Huo Xibai away, "I'm going to see how grandma is preparing..."

"return."

Before she had even taken two steps out, she was pulled back by Huo Xibai, "You want to leave without telling me clearly? Is there something wrong with you?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? If there was something wrong with me, you wouldn't have found me yet!"

Huo Xibai naturally knew that if Meng Xia didn't still have him in her heart, she wouldn't have gone back to look for him.

Thinking of this, the man felt happy again, and he immediately leaned over and kissed her, "Okay, let me believe you."
