Even the nightingale cannot escape

Chapter 497 Fear

Huo Yixiu chuckled after hearing this, and then said: "Of course, I won't disturb you two sisters, otherwise, I don't know what you will think of me."

He looked like he was joking, but when his words fell into the ears of the two sisters in front of him, they didn't look like they were joking at all and couldn't laugh at all.

"Thank you very much." After saying this, Yu Qingli very forcefully pulled Yu Qingrao into his room.

When the two sisters were lying on the same bed, Yu Qingli continued, "Tell me the truth, did he imprison you some time ago? What happened between you two?"

When she asked this, Yu Qingrao's body trembled noticeably, and she suddenly reached out to hug her, burying her face in her arms.

He whispered, "Nothing happened. Don't ask me, sister. We are doing fine. He treats me well. I am very satisfied with my life now."

Yu Qingrao's attitude at this moment was so weird that Yu Qingli couldn't believe her words, so he forcefully tried to pull her out of his arms.

But Yu Qingrao's attitude was very strange. He hugged her tightly and refused to look up at her no matter what. His whole body was shaking.

"What on earth happened to you?" Yu Qingli asked anxiously.

"Sister, I beg you, please stop asking, I'm really fine now." Yu Qingrao kept repeating this sentence.

She looked like she was about to collapse, which really scared Yu Qingli.

Yu Qingli did not dare to ask any more questions. She just silently held her in her arms, gently stroked her back, and whispered, "Don't be afraid. Sister is here. Sister will always be by your side."

Yu Qingrao's emotions finally calmed down. She silently hugged the person tighter but said nothing.

In the darkness, the two sisters hugged each other tightly, and no one spoke again until dawn.

When Yu Qingli saw Huo Yixiu again, there was deep resentment in her eyes.

Although Yu Qingrao didn't say anything, she was sure that Huo Yixiu must have done something to Qingrao.

"Sister, why are you looking at me like that? Didn't you sleep well last night?" Huo Yixiu said with a smile on her face, seeming to have some concern.

"I'm beginning to suspect that she's entered menopause early. She's very irritable. You don't have to bother with her." Yu Wenbo chuckled and jokingly said.

He successfully got a roll of the eyes from Yu Qingli and smiled indifferently.

Obviously, he didn't take Yu Qingli's worries to heart.

In his eyes, this is a society ruled by law, so there is no such thing as imprisonment.

And with Yu Qingrao's personality, how could she be the kind of person who would obediently allow herself to be imprisoned? Yu Qingli must be overthinking it.

"I understand why sister thinks highly of Qingrao. I'm happy for Qingrao to have such a sister. I will try my best to make sister accept me." Huo Yixiu chuckled, looking very tolerant and generous.

This really made Yu Qingli very angry, but she couldn't get angry because she didn't have enough evidence. She just sneered and said, "Mr. Huo is really good at making my disappointing brother so happy in such a short time."

"Sister, what are you talking about?" Yu Wenbo looked dissatisfied.

"Sister, just call me Yixiu. There's no need to be so polite. After all, I will be your brother-in-law soon." Huo Yixiu said with a smile.

"Don't be so confident. We are not sure whether you can succeed or not." Yu Qingli said with a sneer.

Unexpectedly, before Huo Yixiu could say anything, Yu Wenbo couldn't wait to speak. "With my personality, if I miss Yixiu, who knows who will be interested in her? I think you should not stop me, otherwise I will have to wait to be married like you."

These words really pissed off Yu Qingli. She couldn't bear it any longer and slapped Yu Wenbo on the back of the head, looking at him as if he was a fool.

"You'd better shut up, or I don't mind losing a brother."

Yu Wenbo saw her gritting her teeth, which was very familiar to him. He quickly shut up and dared not say anything.

Yu Wenbo's fear of Qing Li is engraved in his bones.

Yu Qingli then smiled with satisfaction, then looked at Huo Yixiu again and asked again: "Are you leaving the Yu family today?"

"I have to go on a business trip today, so I have to leave for sure."

After hearing Huo Yixiu's answer, Yu Qingli curled her lips slightly and continued, "My sister and I haven't seen each other for a long time. I really miss her. Since you have to go on a business trip, why don't you let my sister stay at home for a few more days? We sisters have a lot of intimate things to talk about."

After hearing this, Yu Wenbo frowned unconsciously.

How could he not know that Yu Qingli, a career-oriented woman, actually cared so much about her sisters' concerns?

But as soon as he caught a glimpse of the other person's expression, he sensitively realized that he had better not say this out loud, otherwise he would get beaten.

Yu Qingli originally thought that Huo Yixiu would definitely not agree, and was already prepared to prolong the battle.

But unexpectedly, the next moment, Huo Yixiu agreed very calmly.

"That's good too. Qingrao hasn't been in a very good condition recently. I can feel more at ease with my sister by my side."

This surprised Yu Qingli. Isn't Huo Yixiu afraid of what Yu Qingrao might say?

Huo Yixiu's eyes fell on Yu Qingrao, and he reached out his hand to touch her hair affectionately, then whispered, "Take good care of yourself at home during this time, and I'll bring you a gift when I come back from my business trip."

There was no trace of joy on Yu Qingrao's face, and her body shrank back again.

But he soon said, "Okay, I'll wait for you to come back home."

After Huo Yixiu left, Yu Qingrao visibly relaxed.

Yu Qingli saw this and breathed a sigh of relief. He pulled Yu Qingrao aside again and asked her what had happened.

The result was the same as before, Yu Qingrao was unwilling to say anything.

Once he was forced into a corner, the other party looked like he was on the verge of collapse, as if he had suffered a great blow, and even began to reject Yu Qingli.

There was no way out. Yu Qingli didn't dare to ask any more questions. He just handed over the work at hand to others and stayed with Yu Qingrao all day.

Yu Qingrao felt the other party's deep love, and her emotions finally eased and she was no longer as painful as before.

Yu Qingli saw it, and while she felt relaxed, her eyes were also filled with worry.

What on earth did Huo Yixiu do to Qing Rao? How could he force her to be like this?
