But today, her son actually took the initiative to give her a gift!

Oh my God, Meng Meiqin was so moved that she wanted to cry!

She glanced at Shengxia who was standing beside her, her eyes moist, which made Shengxia feel very confused.

Meng Meiqi is not stupid. She knows that Huo Tingxiao is nice to her today because of Shengxia. It seems that she has to be nicer to Shengxia in the future, so that her son will treat her better!

"Auntie, what's wrong with you?" Shengxia asked with concern.

Meng Meiqin held Sheng Xia's hand and said, "Xia Xia, I didn't know a lot of things before. I listened to other people's words and provoked you, so I said some hurtful words to you and did some things that hurt you. I apologize to you for this."

Shengxia smiled when she heard that and held her hand back.

"Auntie, let's just let the past be the past. Let's not talk about it anymore."

Meng Meiqin smiled and nodded, "Well, let's not talk about it."

The two had a great time, and when they separated, Meng Meiqin even made an appointment with Shengxia to go shopping and have afternoon tea together next time!

By the time Shengxia got home, Sheng Yi had already returned home.

He frowned and asked, "Where did you go? Why did you come home so late?"

When Shengxia looked at the time, it was indeed very late.

Originally, it was still quite early when the two finished shopping, but Meng Meiqin asked her to go for dinner, so the two ate outside before going home.

Sheng Xia said truthfully: "I went out with Huo Tingxiao's mother, went shopping and had a meal."

"His mother?" Sheng Yi was puzzled. "Doesn't his mother dislike you?"

Shengxia didn't know how to explain, "Well... maybe she agrees now..."

"Didn't it embarrass you?" Sheng Yi asked suspiciously.

Shengxia shook the things in her hands, "Look, these are all bought for me by her mother."

Sheng Yi looked at the bags of things in Sheng Xia's hands and found that she had bought quite a few.

Sheng Xia smiled and said, "His mother is quite cute and easily influenced. I guess she was instigated by someone to dislike me before."

Seeing Shengxia coming to protect him, Sheng Yi poked Shengxia's forehead with his finger.

"You should take a closer look. Don't think everything is good just because Huo Tingxiao is mentioned. Be careful not to be deceived!"

Midsummer smiled mischievously.

"What are you afraid of? I'm a second marriage and he's a first marriage, so I'm the one who gets the upper hand anyway."

"Nonsense!" Sheng Yi's face darkened. "It's obvious that he was the one taking advantage. How many men are waiting to marry my genius sister? He took advantage of my absence and tricked you away."

Shengxia acted coquettishly to her brother, "Hehe, then brother, you can't leave me again in the future, lest I be deceived by others again."

Sheng Xia's words made Sheng Yi's eyes suddenly darken.

After a moment, the strangeness in his eyes disappeared, and he reached out and rubbed Shengxia's head.

"You can't always rely on your brother. You will have to make your own judgments and decisions on many things in the future. Be more careful."

Shengxia smiled and said, "Don't worry, brother. I've grown up!"

Sheng Yi looked at his sister and smiled, with a barely perceptible darkness flashing in his eyes.

On the other side, Huo Tingxiao also received a work report from his old mother. Seeing that she bought so many things for Shengxia, Huo Tingxiao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

He couldn't help but call Shengxia again. Shengxia had just returned to her room to rest. When she saw Huo Tingxiao's call, her mood instantly improved.

"Hey?"

Huo Tingxiao asked with a smile, "How come you have such a good relationship with my mom? She just sent me a lot of compliments about you."

Shengxia was even more curious and asked with a smile, "Really? What did you praise me for?"

"She said you were sensible, smart, generous, capable, and filial, and bought her a lot of things."

Shengxia was a little surprised. She didn't expect Meng Meiqi to praise herself like this. You know, she only called herself one name before, which was "second-married woman".

But now, I can actually tell you all her good points.

"Auntie can actually praise me so much!"

Huo Tingxiao did not hesitate to praise her. "Xia Xia is really capable. I said a lot of good things to her before, but she didn't listen. Now, after going out with you once, she is conquered by you."

Sheng Xia laughed and said, "You are just talking nonsense. I gave you a gift. You don't understand women's minds at all."

"Yes, I don't understand anything, so this family can't do without you." Huo Tingxiao took advantage of the situation.

Shengxia's heart moved, and the word "home" made her feel inexplicably comforted.

"My aunt is a lovely person, but she is easily influenced and impulsive. But as long as you explain the truth to her, she will understand."

Huo Tingxiao was very pleased to hear this, "You also said something good for her."

But, is his mother like this? Huo Tingxiao has never thought about it this way.

He had told her countless times that Shengxia was very good and asked her to get along well with Shengxia, but she had never listened to him once.

"I'm happy to see you guys getting along so well."

Huo Tingxiao's voice inexplicably made people feel at ease. Shengxia lay on the bed, feeling as secure as if Huo Tingxiao was right next to him.

"How's it going over there? Are things almost done?" Shengxia asked with concern.

Huo Tingxiao stayed in Continent M to investigate the truth of the explosion, and several days have passed in the blink of an eye.

"We have found clues, but they have not been confirmed yet. It is expected to take a few days."

Shengxia understood, "Well, then you should be more careful."

"Okay, I will."

Feeling Shengxia's care, Huo Tingxiao felt sweeter than eating honey.

His low and hoarse voice sounded, "Xia Xia, do you miss me?"

His voice was so alluring that Sheng Xia felt a ripple in her heart...

Subconsciously, I blurted out what I wanted: "I miss you. I hope you come back soon..."

In a word, Huo Tingxiao wished he could grow wings and fly over immediately, but He Si happened to come over at this time.

Generally, he would not bother her unless it was something important, so Huo Tingxiao had to put aside his love affair.

"Okay, I'll be back soon, don't worry."

After hanging up the phone, Huo Tingxiao returned to his calm and indifferent state.

"what's up."

"Mr. Huo, we have a clue." He Si rushed over hurriedly.

"We found some special warheads on the remaining buildings at the scene. These warheads did not belong to Guimen, but to another more mysterious organization."

Huo Tingxiao frowned, "Who is it?"

He Si: "It is an organization that has only emerged in recent years and has a close relationship with the K organization."

He Si handed the information he found to Huo Tingxiao. After reading it, Huo Tingxiao's brows became even more furrowed.

"It's actually him?"

"Why would they become our enemies if they don't interfere with our own business?"
