Chapter 230, The Grand Finale

Back at the apartment, the living room was already filled with the smell of food.

Seeing the two, Xing Xiaoyu warmly greeted Jiang Ran: "Ran Ran, I have found a job!"

Looking at the hot food on the table, Jiang Ran smiled and said, "So, is this table for celebration?"

Xing Xiaoyu blushed slightly, and nodded: "Thanks to you and Brother Si's care these days, the dishes here are bought with the points we earned today, and the portions are not much..."

The girl said, her cheeks turned redder.

They have been taking care of them all the time, and today they agreed to invite them to dinner as a thank you. However, as ordinary people, they don't get many points in exchange for a day's work, and the vegetables they buy are not as good as the fresh water that Si Xu usually brings out from the space.

Jiang Ran exaggeratedly took a breath: "It's so fragrant, I'm lucky to have a good meal today-the portion of this table is not much, Xiaoyu, if I get fat, it's your fault."

As he said, he touched Si Xu with his elbow: "I have your favorite steamed eggs, are you happy?"

I don't like steamed eggs.Si Xu retorted silently in his heart, nodded: "Yeah."

Seeing that they didn't dislike it, Xing Xiaoyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and pulled out the chair to invite the two of them to sit down.

……

When all the dishes were served on the table, Xing Xiaoyu frowned and said, "Brother Luo hasn't come back yet."

"Luo Yuting?" Jiang Ran was also puzzled, "Where did he go?"

Xing Xiaoyu shook his head: "Brother Luo went out very early today and hasn't come back."

Luo Yuting had a mediocre relationship with them, and no one asked him where he was going.

Jiang Ran didn't continue to struggle: "Leave him a meal, let's eat first—everyone is tired after a long day of work, so go to bed early after eating."

When she spoke, the others naturally had no objections.

A group of people finished their dinner happily, and each tidied up and went back to their rooms.

……

When Luo Yuting came back, it was close to the curfew time. When he opened the door, the living room was quiet, and there was only one person sitting on the sofa.

The young man's peach blossom eyes were slightly closed, and he leaned lazily on the sofa, with a cigarette between his fingers, which was not lit.

Hearing the movement, he looked up at him.

Luo Yuting didn't stop, nodded to Si Xu and walked through the living room, preparing to go back to the room.

"There is food in the kitchen." Si Xu snorted lazily, reminding him, "They specially left it for you."

Luo Yuting paused, hesitated for a moment, then turned and walked towards the kitchen.

"Hey, it's not easy to digest dinner at this time, do you want to go out with me for a walk later?" Si Xu asked again.

Luo Yuting swallowed the vegetables in his mouth, and looked at him: "Is something wrong?"

Along the way, Si Xu never spoke to anyone else in the team except when necessary or when Jiang Ran named them.

I waited here specially tonight, and invited him out for a walk...

All he could think of was that something would happen to Beichen base tonight.

"Not counting—going to the theatre."

"Watching a play? In the middle of the night, Professor Si still has this hobby?"

The old god Si Xu is here: "I have a wide range of hobbies, which may be very different from your inherent impression."

"..."

Luo Yuting didn't answer, and quickly finished the food in the thermos box.

He packed up the dishes and came out of the kitchen: "Let's go."

"what?"

"Aren't you watching a play?"

Si Xu glanced at his watch: "Wait, it's not up yet."

Don't worry, the good shows are all for the finale.

At the same time, in the other courtyard of the Huo family compound, the study room was still lit, and there were vague shadows reflected on the curtains.

Huo Xuan paced back and forth in the study, with dryness on his brows.

Huo Siguo sat cross-legged on the grand teacher's chair and puffed on the clouds. Dazed by his father, he exhaled a puff of smoke and said impatiently, "Dad, there's a curfew here. Have you decided yet? Everyone is waiting outside."

Huo Xuan frowned, and glared at his son when he heard this, and said angrily, "Can you put out your cigarette?"

Huo Siguo followed the good example, put out the cigarette, and muttered: "You are a typical emotional transfer - just take it out on me when you are in a bad mood."

Huo Xuan glanced at him.

Huo Siguo shut his mouth.

After the elder continued to walk for another 10 minutes, Huo Siguo pulled his hair irritably, and clicked his tongue twice: "Dad, what are you hesitating about? If you don't act tonight, if Xiling base and Huo Sichan reach a cooperation, we will do it again." Trouble."

"I know—Si Xu has come now, if something happens to Huo Sichan now..." There is no doubt that he must have done it—everyone will think so.

"Dad, are you afraid of being discussed by others?"

Huo Xuan sneered: "Discussion? Heh, when I was taken back to Huo's house by your grandfather, when would I not be scolded by someone poking my spine?"

"I think so." Huo Siguo curled his lips, "Then why are you hesitating? Huo Sichan is dead, and the Xiling Base can only cooperate with us if they want to cooperate—but just by chance, can Si Xu still turn against us for Huo Sichan? "

Once Huo Sichan died, Huo Lingyin had nothing to fear, Xiling Base had to choose them if they wanted to cooperate.

Thinking of this, Huo Siguo's eyes became brighter and brighter: "Dad, we have been planning for so long. Last time Huo Sichan was lucky enough to escape, this time we will definitely succeed."

"..."

"Dad, we have been bullied by those in Huo's family for so long, and we can finally feel proud. Don't be soft-hearted."

Huo Lingyin, that bitch, every time he sees him, he always looks aloof and arrogant. When he kills Huo Sichan and becomes the head of the Huo family, he must make that woman kneel at his feet and repent!
"And, Dad, this time Huo Lingyin came back, obviously ready to attack us - to act first, and when Huo Lingyin makes a plan, we will be in a passive position."

"I know!"

He has thought about what Huo Siguo said, Huo Lingyin was already at odds with them, this time he arranged for someone to hurt Huo Sichan, Huo Lingyin will definitely not let it go...

That woman's eyes were very similar to his, she was ambitious yet ruthless - one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and sooner or later they will tear each other apart.

Thinking of this, Huo Xuan clenched his fist and slammed it on the desk, saying ruthlessly: "According to the plan, do it!"

He had been planning for so long, just waiting for this day, how could he give up because of the sudden visit of two people from Xiling Base.

……

In the dark night, there was a shadow avoiding the patrolling supernatural team, and moved to the Huo family compound with ease.

……

In the small attic of the Huo family, Huo Lingge groped and checked the bed carefully. After confirming that there was no problem, the woman spread out the quilt and made the bed.

The young man sat by the bed, looked at the girl's slender back, pressed one hand on the newly bandaged chest, and coughed in a low voice.

Hearing the sound of coughing, Huo Linge walked to his side and reached out to help him: "Brother, I'll help you to bed."

Five years ago, Huo Sichan had a car accident on his way back from studying abroad, and all the bodyguards who followed him died. Only he was hanging on his breath, and barely managed to save his life after a whole night of resuscitation in the hospital.

After that car accident, he lay in bed for two years and underwent many surgeries one after another. In the end, although he came out of the hospital alive, his body was still dragged down by the car accident—the once gentle and elegant Mr. Get out of a wheelchair.

It wasn't supposed to be like this.

Huo Linge bit her lip, hiding the astringency in her eyes.

"No need." Huo Sichan clasped the girl's hand and whispered, "Lingge, go and rest."

He has his own pride, and even if he can't move his legs, he rarely relies on others for help in his daily life.

Huo Linge didn't move.

"Listen to the song?"

"Brother wants to dismiss me?" Huo Lingge rubbed his fingers and smiled wryly, "Brother, I know what you're waiting for—only tonight, no matter what you say, I won't leave."

She squatted down beside the wheelchair, looked up at him, and said firmly: "Huo Sichan, we agreed when we were in the hospital, this time, I will protect you."
