Capítulo 1253: Chapter 1252: A Phone Call from Ling County
Hearing Huo Shiqian say on the phone that he didn’t need Guo Jiacheng’s help, Guo Jiacheng imdiately said on the other end, “Are you sure you really don’t need my help?”
“If my people get involved, it will definitely be easier for you to act in G City!” Guo Jiacheng said loudly, “You know, if I help you, I don’t need any reward!”
“Just wait for to return from the task, and our teams can have a duel as the reward!”
Huo Shiqian: …
“How’s my proposal, not bad, right?” Guo Jiacheng chuckled.
“Not good.” Huo Shiqian said calmly, “As for Guo Kai… and Guo Jiumin, you don’t need to bother with them.”
The words “Guo Kai” were intentionally emphasized by Huo Shiqian.
“You just need to focus on completing your task and co back in one piece.” Huo Shiqian was very composed.
This was to say: even if Guo Jiacheng was watching over Guo Kai, he might forget about it. As for Guo Jiumin’s matters, Guo Jiacheng should not get involved.
Coming back in one piece after performing the task was already Huo Shiqian’s greatest “expectation” of Guo Jiacheng.
Even if Guo Jiacheng was a fool, he could hear the sarcasm in Huo Shiqian’s words, “Huo Shiqian, you’re underestimating !”
“Just wait, when I return from the task, I’ll definitely go to the Capital City to challenge your troops for a drill!”
For Guo Jiacheng, all his intelligence seed to be used for “dueling” with Huo Shiqian.
Huo Shiqian was rather speechless.
“We’ll talk about this when you get back.” Huo Shiqian remained very composed, “I’m hanging up now.”
With that, he didn’t care how Guo Jiacheng reacted on the other end and directly hung up the phone.
After hanging up, Huo Shiqian continued to entertain the guests.
At the full moon banquet, apart from Huo Shiwu, who briefly showed up and then slept the whole ti, and Xia Chuyi, who was in the room with the child, everyone else from the Ou and Huo families was tired but satisfied.
Then, near the end of the banquet, Xia Chuyi received a call from Uncle Xia in Ling County.
“I’m sorry, Chuyi, Uncle and Aunt couldn’t make it to the child’s full moon banquet…” Uncle Xia said on the phone, sounding particularly remorseful.
“It’s okay,” Xia Chuyi replied, holding the receiver, slightly smiling, “Ling County is so far from the Capital City, and Xiao Gui is in his third year of high school, it’s normal you couldn’t co.”
Hearing Xia Chuyi’s understanding words, Uncle Xia felt even more embarrassed, and still said, “Sorry…”
At this mont, Xia Chuyi imdiately sensed that Uncle Xia’s tone… seed unusually guilty?
“Uncle…” Uncle Xia’s tone made Xia Chuyi feel a bit strange, so she asked, “Is sothing happening over in Ling County?”
Otherwise, why would Uncle Xia’s tone be so strange?
Xia Chuyi was full of doubts.
“No, nothing…” Hearing Xia Chuyi’s words, Uncle Xia’s tone was still very guilty.
However, Xia Chuyi heard Aunt Xia seemingly speaking behind Uncle Xia, “What do you an nothing? We’ve been hiding it from Chuyi for so long…”
Hiding it from her?
Xia Chuyi was stunned.
What were Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia hiding from her?
Xia Chuyi beca even more puzzled.
Soon, the phone was handed over to Aunt Xia.
“Chuyi, let Aunt tell you, actually when we found out you were pregnant, your Uncle and I were planning to co to Shangjing to see you…” Aunt Xia said on the other end, “But as we were about to leave, sothing ca up here…”
