Shock! I fell for the paranoid Mr. Huo after he misread my thoughts

Chapter 7: Meeting the Heroine 1 and Sticking Together

Grandma? Hearing this name, Jiang Muwan was stunned for a moment while handing over the fruit.

Huo Chenchao's grandmother? Jiang Muwan looked at Mrs. Huo who was smiling at her kindly, then looked at the green fruit in her hand, and instantly understood.

Mrs. Huo and Mr. Huo had a deep love for each other all their lives. Unfortunately, Mr. Huo passed away three years ago. After that, Mrs. Huo suffered from Alzheimer's disease, so she mistook the green fruit for red fruit, because this was also a memory that belonged exclusively to her and Mr. Huo.

Old Madam Huo stepped forward and took the fruit from Jiang Muwan's hand, wiped it and then held it tightly in her palm.

"I saw the fruits here were turning red, so I thought of picking some for your grandfather. Fortunately, I met this kind-hearted girl who helped me."

Madam Huo spoke very clearly, but her entire time was confused. She always thought that Grandpa Huo was still there, and Jiang Muwan couldn't help but be moved when she heard it.

"Grandma," Huo Chen stepped forward and walked to Jiang Muwan, standing beside her. "She is not only a kind-hearted girl, but also your granddaughter-in-law, Grandpa Lin's granddaughter, Jiang Muwan."

"So you are Old Lin's granddaughter. That's great. You look a bit like your grandfather. You look alike, and you are also very agile."

After listening to Huo Chenchao's introduction, Mrs. Huo liked Jiang Muwan even more. She immediately stood between her grandson and his wife, put the fruit in her pocket, and then held the two people in one hand, not forgetting to glance at her grandson.

"You are such a jerk, how can you let a girl stand here and chat all the time? You, it's a good thing that your grandfather has a close relationship with Old Man Lin, otherwise you would be single for the rest of your life."

Facing Mrs. Huo's sudden change of topic, Huo Chenchao asked, "Isn't Jiang Muwan here to help you pick fruits and talk to you? Why did it become his responsibility again?"

Huo Chenchao shook his head helplessly. After all, it wasn't the first time he had to take the blame. As long as the old man was happy, that was enough.

Jiang Muwan was pulled by Old Madam Huo all the way into the Huo residence. When the three of them entered the house, the Huo family members were already waiting in the hall.

The first person to come was Huo Chenchao's mother, Mrs. Huo. Because the original owner had briefly spoken with Mrs. Huo on the phone before and had met Mrs. Huo several times, Jiang Muwan was somewhat familiar with Mrs. Huo.

At this time, Mrs. Huo was only wearing a light-colored cheongsam, with her long hair tied up with a hairpin. She looked elegant and youthful, and one could vaguely see the charm of the former Golden Horse Award winner.

"My girl, look, who did I bring back by chance?" Mrs. Huo smiled even more happily when she saw Mrs. Huo.

"Mom, I saw it, it's Muwan." Mrs. Huo helped Mrs. Huo, then looked at Jiang Muwan with a smile, "Muwan, you must be exhausted from the journey, right?"

"Thank you, Mom. I'm not tired." Seeing Mrs. Huo's friendly smile, Jiang Muwan's nervousness was relieved a little.

The four of them were walking into the living room when Mrs. Huo touched her pocket and remembered the fruit. "Oh, it was Xiao Jiang who picked the fruit for me just now. It's the reddest and most beautiful. I'll give it to your father first and then come back to chat with you."

As Mrs. Huo spoke, she walked upstairs accompanied by Mrs. Zhang, holding the fruit in one hand and leaning on a walking stick in the other.

"Alas," Mrs. Huo shook her head but said nothing. They all knew about Mrs. Huo's illness, but they could do nothing but maintain the lie together.

After hearing Mrs. Huo say that it was Jiang Muwan who helped her pick the fruits, Mrs. Huo looked at Jiang Muwan with even more appreciation. Before, people said that the eldest daughter of the Jiang family was spoiled and willful, but now it seems that she is considerate, generous and kind.

"Mom, are my brother and sister-in-law back?" Just as Mrs. Huo and Jiang Muwan were about to sit down, a lively voice came from the door.

Jiang Muwan looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl with a bun and big round eyes jogging towards her with two pots of succulents in her hands.

Although he had never seen her before, Jiang Muwan recognized the girl in front of him at a glance: Huo Chenchao's biological sister, the heroine of this book, Huo Chenxi.

"Slow down, don't run and fall when you meet your sister-in-law for the first time." Mrs. Huo looked at Huo Chenxi who was jogging over, and hurriedly took the two pots of succulents from her hands.

"Hehe" Huo Chenxi smiled, then took the two pots of succulents back from Mrs. Huo and handed them to Jiang Muwan.

"Sister-in-law, hello. Nice to meet you. My name is Huo Chenxi. I designed and planted these two pots of succulents myself. I'm giving them to you."

Looking at the girl in front of him who was always looking at him with a smile on her face, Jiang Muwan also smiled and took the succulents from her hand. "Thank you, I like this gift very much. By the way, do they all have their own names?"

She had seen people like Huo Chenxi who liked to design and grow these small plants by themselves, and each finished product would be given a unique name by them.

"Sister-in-law, you understand me. Let me tell you, this is called a sunflower. If you put it in the sun, it will turn towards the sun like a sunflower and bloom on its own."

"And this one is called the Happy Ball. I designed it in the shape of a smiley face..."

Girls’ friendship is often so simple, they just start chatting directly based on a common interest.

Mrs. Huo had originally planned to go over and join directly, but she suddenly remembered that she had a son.

"Son, why are you still wearing sunglasses at home? I almost didn't see you."

Huo Chenchao: “…” Is there a possibility that he was simply and habitually ignored, and it has nothing to do with whether he wore sunglasses or not.

"I didn't get much sleep last night, so I used this to cover up the dark circles under my eyes."

"Look, what did I say?" Mrs. Huo looked at Huo Chenchao with an expression that said, "I told you a long time ago that you are not young anymore. You should take care of yourself and not stay up late. Your dad still has some men's skin care products that I bought for him. You can apply some later."

Huo Chenchao, who was only 25 years old, "......"

In order to maintain the mother-son relationship with Mrs. Huo, Huo Chenchao took the initiative to change the subject, "Why don't you see my dad?"

"Your father is in the kitchen. I was originally planning to cook for him, but he didn't trust me, so he pushed me out. But I made the soup today."

"I'll go help my dad." Huo Chen pushed his sunglasses up and walked straight to the kitchen.

After he left, Mrs. Huo turned around and joined the conversation between Jiang Muwan and Huo Chenxi. The originally polite tone of the three people suddenly changed as they chatted.

"Muwan, what do you like to do when you have free time?"

"I watch TV series, listen to novels, play games, and go to the gym, run, and play ball."

"Really? Mom also likes watching TV series, especially rural love stories. I even specially applied for lifetime VIP membership of various websites."

“I also watched Country Love Story, but I only watched the second season.”

"Then we can start watching the second season together tonight."

"Sister-in-law, do you like playing games too? Do you play King of Glory? I like playing but I'm never very good at it."

"Of course I did, but I'm still at the beginner stage. I have some strategies I found before that I can share with you."

“Okay” (((o??`o)ノ?ヽ(o??`o))) consensus was reached.
