Quick Transmigration: The Charismatic Woman Uses Her Stunning Beauty to Complete Missions
Chapter 81 The Drama Queen Sister in the Rebirth Era (36)
Upon learning that Huo Fei had been sentenced, Xin Lei gasped and fainted. Yi Yarong panicked and quickly helped Xin Lei up, calling out anxiously, "Auntie! Auntie, wake up!"
Yi Yarong was extremely anxious. The Huo family was in dire straits, and if Xin Lei were to have another accident, the Huo family would be in complete chaos, and her dream of marrying into a wealthy family would be utterly shattered.
Just then, Huo Yunhan heard the noise and rushed over. He saw Xin Lei lying unconscious on the ground.
He rushed over, scooped Xin Lei up in his arms, and gently placed her on the bed in the room. Xin Lei had suffered a tremendous blow recently, leaving her physically and mentally exhausted. Gray hairs had appeared on her head, and her face looked much older.
His once fair skin became dull and lifeless, his eyes sunken, and his lips pale, filling Huo Yunhan with guilt and remorse.
The doctor arrived quickly and conducted a thorough examination of Xin Lei. After a diagnosis, the doctor told them that Xin Lei had only fainted due to a sudden surge of anger and was not seriously injured.
However, Xin Lei needs to rest after waking up, avoid further stimulation, and maintain emotional stability.
Huo Yunhan lowered his head and gripped Xin Lei's hand tightly, his emotions somber. He had already lost his father and didn't want to lose his mother as well.
Seeing this, Yi Yarong had an idea. Although the Huo family had fallen, Old Master Huo was still alive. Even a fallen camel is bigger than a horse. Perhaps marrying Huo Yunhan was a good choice.
Although Yi Yarong felt a little disgusted with Huo Yunhan, now was not the time to be picky. She just hoped that Shen Chumo wouldn't dislike her because of Huo Yunhan.
Yi Yarong walked over and gently placed her hand on Huo Yunhan's shoulder, softly comforting him, "Cousin, don't worry, Aunt will be alright. I will stay by her side and take good care of her."
Huo Yunhan slightly raised his head, glanced at Yi Yarong, and a hint of gratitude flashed in his eyes. "Thank you, Yarong."
Yi Yarong smiled gently. "Cousin, we're family, no need to thank me. The most important thing now is for Aunt to get better as soon as possible."
Huo Yunhan nodded gently. The gloom in his heart seemed to be dispelled by Yi Yarong's gentle words. He looked at Yi Yarong, his cousin who was usually unremarkable, but at this moment she seemed so reliable.
"Ya Rong, we are so grateful to have you here during this time." Huo Yunhan's voice was deep and sincere.
Yi Yarong blushed slightly and said softly, "Cousin, this is what I should do. My aunt is so good to me, so of course I should take good care of her."
At this moment, Xin Lei slowly woke up. After seeing Huo Yunhan, and thinking about the current state of the Huo family, she said with a sorrowful expression, "Yunhan, what will you do in the future?"
After Huo Fei was convicted, Huo Yunhan was implicated and could no longer serve in the military. However, Xin Lei knew that her son had longed to become a soldier since he was a child and had put in so much effort, all of which had now been in vain.
Huo Yunhan held Xin Lei's hand tightly, "Mom, it's okay. Even if Father is gone... this family still has Grandpa and me. I will definitely restore the glory of the Huo family."
A flash of resentment crossed Xin Lei's eyes. "You still call him grandpa? He doesn't deserve it! He doesn't even spare his own son. How can he be so heartless?"
Huo Yunhan frowned slightly. "Mom, Grandpa did this for the greater good of the country. Father did something wrong, so he should bear the consequences."
Xin Lei was in tears. "Yun Han, how could you say that? He's your father. Even if he made a mistake, he shouldn't be sentenced to death."
Huo Yunhan was also upset, but he knew that his grandfather's decision was right, because in his heart, his role model from childhood to adulthood had never been Huo Fei, but his grandfather.
He had seen his grandfather's achievements, which were earned with countless blood and tears. From then on, he had a dream of becoming a soldier.
"Mom, what's done is done. I believe Grandpa is even more upset than we are. Let's live our lives well from now on."
Seeing that Huo Yunhan was determined, Xin Lei turned away, unwilling to say anything more.
Although the Huo family was shaken, it did not fall apart because the patriarch was still alive. However, its former glory was long gone, and all the prominent families in the capital began to avoid the Huo family.
Looking at those who used to fawn over her, now displaying their cold and sarcastic attitudes, Xin Lei felt an urge to tear their mouths apart.
Yi Yarong watched from the side, feeling an indescribable sense of satisfaction. Back when she first arrived at the Huo family, she had to endure Xin Lei's sarcasm and harassment every day.
Now, the tables have turned, and Xin Lei is finally tasting the pain she once suffered.
After looking around for a while, Yi Yarong stepped forward, took Xin Lei's hand, and said softly, "Aunt, let it go. The Huo family can't afford to offend these people easily these days. Cousin is already having a hard time enough. Please don't add to his troubles." Her tone carried a hint of helplessness and worry, as if she genuinely cared about the Huo family's situation, but also a touch of sarcasm.
Upon hearing this, Xin Lei shoved Yi Yarong aside and angrily retorted, "Are you trying to teach me how to do things? Don't you see they're practically riding on my head? Do you think that just because the Huo family has lost power, you can take advantage of me? Let me tell you, Yi Yarong, people like you from the countryside are only fit to spend your whole lives rolling in the mud."
Yi Yarong stumbled from the push, almost falling to the ground. A flash of resentment crossed her eyes as she cursed inwardly, "You old hag, I've taken care of you for so many days, and you don't even give me a shred of kindness. One day when I marry Huo Yunhan, I'll make you pay!" But she dared not show it on her face, simply lowering her head.
She said, feeling wronged, "Auntie, you've misunderstood me. I was just worried that you'd upset yourself."
After returning home, Huo Yunhan heard about what happened today and went to apologize to Yi Yarong. "Yarong, I'm sorry. You know my mother has been in a bad mood lately. She shouldn't have treated you like that today. Please don't take it to heart."
Yi Yarong raised her head, tears glistening in her eyes. "Cousin, I know Aunt is upset. I won't blame her. I'm just worried about you. I'm also very anxious about the Huo family's current state."
Huo Yunhan looked at Yi Yarong, a feeling of gratitude welling up inside him. He knew his mother had always had a bad temper, but Yi Yarong had always stayed by her side to take care of her. He was very grateful for her persistence and dedication.
He gently patted Yi Yarong's shoulder and said softly, "Yarong, you've had a hard time these past few days. Thank you for taking care of my mother and putting up with her temper. Without you, I really don't know how I would have handled these things."
Yi Yarong's eyes flickered. She stepped forward, took Huo Yunhan's hand, lowered her head, and said with a blush, "Cousin, I did all of this willingly. I'm willing to do anything for you. As long as I can help you, I'll feel very satisfied."
