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

The black car was speeding along the road according to the speed limit. Meng Xia glanced at Huo Xibai's gloomy face and tightened the seat belt in his hand even more.

Seeing him constantly weaving in and out of traffic, causing the cars on the side to honk their horns, Meng Xia couldn't help but say, "Um...can you drive slower?"

"..."

Huo Xibai didn't say anything, and he didn't even look at her. His handsome face looked extremely cold.

Angry?

Meng Xia couldn't help but clenched her palms, feeling a little nervous. Probably because they got along so well during this period, she had the illusion of being pampered by him, and for a moment she forgot that he was angry, but she was still a little scared.

But when she saw that he had slowed down, she breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a sense of superiority that she had never felt before——

No matter how angry he was, Huo Xibai would still worry about her safety.

Just like that time, even if she was frightened by the man's angry look, as soon as she spoke, he would always return to some sense.

Meng Xia was still a little frightened when she thought about what happened in the afternoon. Although she was indeed angry at what Mrs. Huo said, she did not expect Huo Xibai's reaction——

He actually attacked an elder in public...

Although according to Huo Xibai's meaning, Mrs. Song is not considered an elder.

She couldn't help but think about the time when she was being annoyed by Mrs. Song because of her leg injury and because she couldn't give birth to a child. Although Song Zhihuai would interrupt, he would never defend her in this way and would only let her endure -

[Just listen to those words and don’t worry about them. We can just live our own lives. 】

[My mother is like that. In fact, she doesn’t have any ill intentions, so don’t take it to heart. 】

At that time, she didn’t think Song Zhihuai’s words were wrong, and she would even automatically find reasons for them after hearing them too much——

After all, there is indeed an ideological generation gap between Mrs. Song and them. It is normal for the elderly to want grandchildren. It is not easy for Mrs. Song to raise Song Zhihuai alone...

It wasn't until today when she saw Huo Xibai pinching her neck, and when she saw the horrified expression on the face that had always been harsh in front of her, that she realized that she had just been holding back -

In fact, she had long wanted to strangle her neck like that and tell her to shut up that nagging mouth.

But she didn't dare.

And what she had never dared to do, Huo Xibai did it for her today... "Get out of the car."

It wasn't until a cold voice sounded that Meng Xia realized that she had arrived home. The man beside her had already gotten out of the car and stood aside to remind him.

Meng Xia quickly unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car, but Huo Xibai had already walked away. She quickly caught up with him and followed him into the elevator.

"Huo..."

Just as she was about to open her mouth, two young girls suddenly walked in, and she swallowed back the words she was about to say.

As soon as the two girls came in, they squeezed Meng Xia into the back, while Huo Xibai stood at the front.

Perhaps because of the distance, she and Huo Xibai didn't look like a couple. She could even hear the two girls talking about his appearance behind Huo Xibai in front of her -

"This guy is so handsome, is he a celebrity?"

"It can't be a member of that new group, right? It looks like it."

The two people's voices were not loud, but because the power outage was quiet enough, Meng Xia still heard them.

She could hear it, and it was impossible for Huo Xibai not to hear it at all, but there was no reaction.

Meng Xia frowned and wanted to interrupt, but with a "ding", the elevator door opened and Huo Xibai took the lead and went out again.

"Wait for me."

Her heart tightened inexplicably, and she quickly chased after him. Unexpectedly, she suddenly held Huo Xibai's hand.

The moment the elevator door closed, she heard the voices of the two girls——

"No way? A secret love affair?"

"You must have made a mistake, right? That member seems to be standing on the set filming. It is unlikely that he will appear here, and he is not wearing a mask."

"Too."
