After Marrying the Officer Chapter 1136 - 42

"Chuyi, your uncle has t Xia Lian’er." Huo Shiqian said to Xia Chuyi while helping her fold clothes.

Hearing this, Xia Chuyi paused her actions for a mont and said, "Did I hear wrong? What did you say? My uncle t Xia Lian’er?"

Huo Shiqian nodded slightly and said, "You heard correctly, he did et Xia Lian’er."

Upon hearing Huo Shiqian’s confirmation, Xia Chuyi was montarily stunned, then sighed, saying, "My uncle, he..."

Regarding this matter, Xia Chuyi really couldn’t make a judgnt.

After a brief mont of contemplation, Xia Chuyi asked, "So, how was the situation when they t?"

Huo Shiqian replied, "Not very well, Xia Lian’er didn’t acknowledge him."

Xia Chuyi sighed.

This was almost within her expectations.

"However..." Huo Shiqian continued, "She accepted the money your uncle gave her."

"My uncle gave her money?" Xia Chuyi asked in shock, "My uncle gave her money?"

After the initial shock, Xia Chuyi thought for a while.

In truth, given her uncle’s personality, even if Xia Lian’er didn’t acknowledge him, he would still make so gesture.

Moreover, Uncle Xia’s business has been doing well in recent years.

Especially following Xia Chuyi’s advice to source goods from the south and open a large supply store, essentially a "supermarket," resulting in its status as one of the top ones in Ling County.

Compared to those well-established families in the Capital City, this is indeed not much.

But when compared to Xia Lian’er’s current situation, it’s much better.

Xia Chuyi already knew from Huo Shiqian that Xia Lian’er’s current living conditions are quite poor.

However, Xia Chuyi does not sympathize with her.

The bitter fruit Xia Lian’er is swallowing today is exactly the one she sowed herself.

At this ti, Huo Shiqian nodded in response to her, saying, "Yes, your uncle gave her money."

"Before that, Xia Lian’er firmly refused to acknowledge your uncle."

"But right after he offered the money, she accepted it swiftly."

Huo Shiqian’s words served as a reminder to Xia Chuyi, hinting that her uncle might be falling into an endless cycle.

Xia Chuyi paused in silence for a mont and said, "Let think about this matter..."

Even though she knew that what her uncle did might bring future troubles.

Xia Lian’er, after all, is her uncle’s biological niece, so Xia Chuyi isn’t in a position to persuade or even criticize Uncle Xia.

More importantly, this matter is being kept from her by her uncle.

In such a situation, Xia Chuyi must not step forward recklessly.

Seeing Xia Chuyi a bit conflicted, Huo Shi didn’t give her any suggestions, rely paused his actions and pulled her into his arms.

"Whatever decision you make, let know once you’ve thought it through." Huo Shiqian kissed her lightly and said.

"Okay." Xia Chuyi nestled in his arms, sighed softly.

A mont later, Huo Shiqian suddenly said, "In two days, my wedding leave will be over."

"Chuyi, you can start preparing for ’Youwei’." Only then did Huo Shiqian say.

He said this to divert Xia Chuyi’s attention.

Sure enough, upon hearing Huo Shiqian’s words, Xia Chuyi said, "Yes, it’s ti to prepare."

"Otherwise tomorrow, tomorrow I want to go to ’Youwei’ again and..." Xia Chuyi hesitated slightly and said, "I, will try to probe what my uncle is actually planning to do."

Upon hearing this, Huo Shiqian said nothing, only nodded and said, "Alright."
