Soon, Xia Chuyi returned ho with the driver.
As soon as she arrived at the Ou Family, Mr. and Mrs. Ou ZhenTing welcod her warmly.
"Chuyi!" The couple called her at the sa ti.
Xia Chuyi looked at Ou ZhenTing’s own parents, then glanced around the house. Her brother was not there.
So, was she brought back because of her brother’s issues, or because of the matters regarding Huo Shiqian?
Before returning, Xia Chuyi had thought about it, and these seed to be the only two possible reasons.
"Chuyi, how have you been getting along with Huo Shiqian recently?" Mrs. Ou approached her kindly and asked warmly.
"Yes, how are you getting along with that Huo boy lately?" Ou ZhenTing’s tone was less courteous, saying directly, "If it’s not going well, you should just break up."
Xia Chuyi: ...
Upon hearing this, even Mrs. Ou could not help but cast a reproachful glance at him.
"Well, I’m not wrong in saying that..." Ou ZhenTing, feeling a bit awkward under his wife and daughter’s gaze, still insisted, "If it’s not working out, shouldn’t you break up?"
What he said made sense... Xia Chuyi, sowhat helpless, said, "Shiqian and I have always gotten along well."
In other words, her father need not worry about them anymore.
"Really getting along well?" Ou ZhenTing was very skeptical.
"Really getting along well." Xia Chuyi said seriously.
Upon hearing this, Ou ZhenTing finally believed her, although there was a trace of regret in his eyes.
But imdiately, he asked, "Then what’s going on with those rumors about Huo Shiqian and Liu Yingying getting married, do you know?"
Upon her father’s ntion, Xia Chuyi understood.
The matter concerning Huo Shiqian must have broken out first.
After pondering, Xia Chuyi said, "About that... you could say I know sowhat."
She had realized Liu Yingying was after Huo Shiqian when she encountered her at the Bao Family previously.
Moreover, with Su Susu involved, those two were in cahoots, striking a deal, so it wasn’t surprising that rumors of a marriage alliance spread.
"Dad, Mom, did you call back just to ask about this?" Xia Chuyi said, "This is just their wishful thinking. Brother Shiqian would never agree."
On this point, Xia Chuyi was certain.
Hearing Xia Chuyi’s assurance, Ou ZhenTing promptly said, "But why, if Huo Shiqian doesn’t agree... no, if no one from the Huo Family agrees, could such rumors spread?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi smiled slightly and said, "Even if soone from the Huo Family agrees, it doesn’t matter. They can’t represent Brother Shiqian."
"Unless they themselves agree, unless they themselves are getting married." Xia Chuyi’s attitude was particularly calm.
Seeing his precious daughter so composed, Mrs. Ou couldn’t help but ask, "Chuyi, do you know how these rumors started?"
"Uh-huh," Xia Chuyi nodded, "I probably know a bit."
Then, she told Mr. and Mrs. Ou about her previous encounters with Liu Yingying and Su Susu.
"Su Susu?" Hearing that she was the instigator, Ou ZhenTing beca furious and shouted, "I ought to call Old Huo and ask what his wife ans by this!"
Having clarified the situation, Ou ZhenTing straightforwardly called the Huo Family.
"Hello, is this Huo Zhongcheng?" Ou ZhenTing said in an unfriendly tone to the other end of the line, "I’m Ou ZhenTing. You’ve probably heard the rumors of a marriage alliance between the Huo and Liu Families, right?"
