The Glory of Noxus

Chapter 351 Disgusted Widow Harassment
Xueling Town, southeast corner area.

A large number of colonists gathered in this area, and through their efforts, they built their own homes brick by brick.

Huo Jixing held Annie's hand and walked slowly along the dark gray stone road, with some words floating in the air.

"He is very busy. He always leaves early and comes home late. He doesn't know what he is doing. Sometimes he doesn't even bother to eat."

Anne pouted and complained a lot about her father Gregory.

"I usually take care of myself, and occasionally help him prepare some simple food."

Huo Jixing looked at Annie, who had her head lowered. She was wearing a tattered skirt and carrying a damaged small bag on her back.

He could only shake his head helplessly.

If Amorin was still alive, how could she let her daughter wear such clothes?
"Maybe he does have his own matters to deal with." Huo Jixing held Annie's hand tightly and said comfortingly.

"How about we go buy some things first and give your father a surprise when he comes back!"

And less than half of his attention fell on the stuffed teddy bear Tibbers.

Huo Jixing sensed Tibos's strength, and his heart rippled.

Unexpectedly, Annie would also be connected with the legendary devil.

"Hey, ordinary people, are they Gregory's friends in Snow Ridge Town?"

When Huo Jixing heard the sound, a red-gold light appeared in his eyes.

Time passes slowly.

"I have money, use my money!"

The black wooden table commonly used in the north is placed in the middle of the living room, with an oil lamp placed on it.

"Is this Mr. Gregory's house?"

Especially her mother Amorine.

Huo Jixing paused, thinking of the noise Annie made just now, and reached out to hug Annie.

"etc."

"Does Gregory know something? Otherwise, there is no way to explain why he chose to live here." Huo Jixing thought to himself.

With Gregory's status and extraordinary strength, even if he was looking for a place to live, he shouldn't live in such a crude place.

Huo Jixing and Annie were talking quietly in the room, and Annie would laugh softly from time to time.

And through some traces of decoration in the house, Huo Jixing could think of the way Gregory decorated the house, trying to hide Amorin's style, but he couldn't help but be affected.

It seemed that Anne was confiding her true feelings to someone for the first time, and the melancholy in her eyes disappeared a lot.

dong dong!dong dong!
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Anne took out her money bag, and the gold coins inside rattled.

While asking, she caught sight of Anne in the room out of the corner of her eye and breathed a sigh of relief.

When the woman in blue skirt saw Huo Jixing, she was slightly startled, then showed a puzzled expression and asked softly.

The woman in the blue dress had her long golden hair skillfully tied up, her face was gentle, and her blue eyes were as deep as lake water.

She believed in her mother and would not harm her.

They walked back to the store they passed before to buy some food and drinks.

The body proportions are just right, neither tall nor short, and have a natural beauty.

Although the furnishings in the house are simple, every item is placed in an orderly manner.

Anne's parents have an irreplaceable place in her heart.

This is a slightly simple wooden house built with solid wooden boards, with two rooms and one living room.

Opening the door, Huo Jixing walked in, putting down what he was carrying while looking at the environment inside the room.

And the essential milk!
Soon, they had purchased all the things and returned to Gregory's residence.

The warm-colored curtains swayed in the wind, and the sunlight filtered through the gaps and scattered on the wooden floor.

Opening the door, Huo Jixing saw a woman wearing a blue skirt standing at the door, holding a jar in her hand.

She will think of the delicious food her mother made for her when she was a child; think of the clothes her mother knitted for her; think of her mother's gentle eyes.
This is why she trusted Huo Jixing so much when she saw Amorin's gift.

"The devil's breath, was it a devil that once hid in Amorin's body?"

He looked at the white clouds in his field of vision, doubts flashing through his heart.

After hearing Huo Jixing's proposal, she immediately became happy and couldn't wait.

He has encountered many demons, such as the demon clown Shaco, the eternal nightmare Nocturne, and the demon inside Swain.

"Mmm Good!"

Huo Ji Xingshen's expression condensed, and he instantly noticed something was wrong with the decorations and items in the room.

Anne would often quietly recall her mother's words and deeds in the dead of night, as if those warm scenes were right in front of her eyes.

It can be said that although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.

"Annie, it's me!"

After finishing speaking, the woman in blue skirt asked Huo Jixing.

"Who are you and why are you at Mr. Gregory's house?"

Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows slightly. With this change in tone, did he regard himself as the owner of the house?
"I'm Anne's uncle, and I stopped by to visit Gregory."

Hearing Huo Jixing's words, the woman in the blue dress' expression changed slightly, and her tone became gentle again.

"Hello, I'm Mr. Gregory's neighbor. Send him some food."

"Since he hasn't come back yet, I'll come back later."

The woman in blue skirt raised the jar in her hand to indicate, smiled and left.

Huo Jixing watched the other party leave with light steps. As soon as he closed the door, he heard Annie's voice.

"I do not like her."

Annie came over and looked at the back of the woman in the blue dress with a look of disgust.

"Haha, if you don't like it, just don't let her in from now on."

Huo Jixing picked up Annie, sat on a wooden chair, smiled, opened a snack similar to a small bun, and put it in her mouth.

Annie opened her small mouth, ate the snack, and narrowed her eyes.

"Zhizhi! Wuwu!"

As soon as she ate the food, Annie heard a strange sound in her ears.

While looking around, she noticed something moving in Huo Jixing's arms.

Under her doubtful eyes, she saw a stuffed animal popping its head out.

"What kind of animal is this? It's so cute!" Annie exclaimed.

Huo Jixing lowered his eyes and saw the snoozing snow-white Poro slowly waking up after smelling the aroma of food. The little guy seemed to have slept for too long and was a little confused about the environment. When he looked around, he looked at Annie.

Then it felt itself flying up and falling into a warm embrace.

To its right is a tattered teddy bear with a missing button-like eye.

"Wow, its body is so soft and comfortable!"

Annie's eyes shone with a different kind of light as she gently touched the snow-white poro, her excitement palpable.

But at this moment, Huo Jixing saw a hint of jealousy and murderous intent in Tibbers's eyes.

"Tsk, tsk, interesting!"

He reached out his hand, gently pressed Tibbers' head, and rubbed it a few times.

This sudden movement made Tibbers tremble with fear.

It seemed to remember Huo Jixing's identity!
Annie was still immersed in the interaction with the Snow White Poro, and did not notice anything strange about Tibbers.

In her heart, Tibbs was just as restless as herself and didn't know what fear was.

How can he be as well-behaved as a cat?
However, the fact happened right under her nose.

"Woo, squeak!"

The snow-white Poro blinked its eyes and danced its little paws wildly, as if calling for help.

Huo Jixing ignored it and let Annie play with the little guy.

Squeak!

The door opened slowly.

Gregory returned to his residence after a busy day.

He entered the house and immediately noticed the burning oil lamp.

After that, he saw Anne sitting in the arms of a handsome young man, and the two were laughing happily.

"Huo Jixing?"

Gregory looked a little in disbelief and rubbed his eyes, with a hint of surprise in his voice.

"It's me, long time no see, Mr. Gregory!"

Huo Jixing put down Annie, stood up and walked towards Gregory, and the two hugged gently.

In the living room of the room.

The simple black wooden table is filled with fragrant food.

Annie hugged Tibbers and looked at the snow-white Poro who was eating, with a smile on her lips.

"How did you find this place?"

Gregory looked at Huo Jixing in front of him and asked, driven by curiosity.

"I accidentally heard the news about you and Amorin, so I came here."

Huo Jixing looked at Gregory with a steady expression.

His once handsome face was covered with traces of vicissitudes of life, and his brown hair was randomly scattered in front of his forehead.

He looked extremely tired.

"What happened? Why did Amorin suddenly disappear?"

"Well, it's a long story."

When Gregory heard Amorin's name, his face was bitter, and his eyes fell on Anne, as if he was recalling the days spent together with Amorin.

"I"

Just as he started to speak, there was a knock on the door, attracting the attention of everyone in the room.

Huo Jixing looked at the door, his brows raised slightly, and familiar clouds appeared in his field of vision.

Gregory went to open the door, and the woman in the blue dress who had left not long ago came back.

"Mr. Gregory, you haven't eaten it yet, have you? This is the food I made."

A gentle voice sounded, her tone full of care and love.

"Ah, excuse me, Villarreal, we are eating."

Gregory looked down at the jar in Villarreal's hand and turned sideways.

"If you don't mind, let's dine together?"

He thought that during this period, he was busy due to some things and neglected Anne's life. Thanks to his neighbor Villarreal for taking care of Anne.

When Villarreal heard this, a hint of joy appeared on her gentle face. Just as she was about to enter the room, she saw Huo Jixing looking at her with a half-smile.

She also saw the table full of food, including meat and soup, which was very rich.

"No, I just thought you might not have eaten yet, so I brought food."

There was a hint of gloom in Villarreal's eyes, but she still maintained the smile on her face.

"Since you have already finished your meal, I won't interrupt you. I wish you and your friends a pleasant meal."

Gregory looked at Villarreal's leaving back, feeling guilty in his heart.

He closed the door, turned back to the dining table, and sighed.

"Villarreal is a careful and considerate person, and he took good care of me and Anne during this time."

"Are you familiar with, um, Villarreal?" Huo Jixing picked up a piece of white bread and put it in his mouth.

"It's not bad, we met after I moved to Xueling Town, we are neighbors." Gregory explained.

"Living alone?"

"Yes, I live nearby."

Huo Jixing suddenly understood, was he attracted to Gregory?

But think about it, with Gregory's handsome face and mature temperament, he can be called a young woman killer.

What's more, she is a widow who has lived alone for many years.

"Let's eat first."

Huo Jixing glanced at him, no wonder Annie didn't like it.

Gregory frowned, as if he understood something, but he didn't say much.

The night breeze blows into the house through the windows, bringing a hint of coolness and chill.

After Annie finished eating, she took Snow White Poro and Tibbers with her and returned to the house to rest.

In the living room, Huo Jixing and Gregory sat opposite each other after clearing away the post-dinner trash.
