Capítulo 890: Chapter 890: Ling County, Aunt and Uncle
Ling County, Xia Family’s grocery store.
Everyone was busy with business when suddenly, a voice called out from outside the store, “Uncle, Aunt.”
“Huh, did I just hear Chuyi’s voice?” Uncle Xia, calculating at the cash register, said in surprise.
“How could it be? Chuyi is in the Capital City…” Before he could finish speaking.
“Uncle!” Xia Chuyi had already entered the store.
As soon as she stepped in, she saw Uncle Xia’s face light up with joy as he exclaid, “Chuyi, why are you back?”
Uncle Xia’s exclamation imdiately brought Aunt Xia, who was busy in the store, out as well.
“Chuyi? Why have you co back?” Aunt Xia, seeing Xia Chuyi, was also filled with joy and hugged her tightly, “scolding” her, “Why didn’t you tell us you were coming back!”
Being hugged by Aunt Xia, Xia Chuyi felt warm inside, yet also a bit bittersweet.
“Aunt…” she called out softly, but then her throat seed to catch, choking her up a bit.
If she wasn’t really Xia Chuyi, then Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia weren’t truly her uncle and aunt…
“Chuyi?” Hearing sothing wrong in her voice, Aunt Xia quickly released her and asked, “What’s wrong, my child? Did sothing happen to you in the Capital City?”
“Or did sothing happen between you and Huo Commander?” As a woman, Aunt Xia naturally thought of “relationship issues” first.
Seeing this, Uncle Xia imdiately chid in, “Chuyi, did sothing happen at school? Or is it about Huo Commander?”
“No matter what it is, just tell Uncle, and I’ll stand up for you!” Uncle Xia declared indignantly, patting his chest.
Hearing Uncle and Aunt Xia imdiately suspect Huo Shiqian, the previously sad Xia Chuyi couldn’t help but feel a mix of laughter and tears.
“Hello, Uncle, Aunt.” Just then, Huo Shiqian, who entered a step later, spoke in a clear, cold voice.
Hearing the words, Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia looked up and imdiately saw the tall figure of Huo Shiqian walking in.
“Huo Commander?” Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia felt a bit embarrassed.
However, besides Huo Shiqian, Ou Jun also ca in next.
“Chief Ou?” Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia were startled into surprise upon seeing Ou Jun, “What brings you here as well?”
The main point is… How did they co together?
Chuyi coming ho in the middle of the school term was already sowhat unusual.
And for Huo Shiqian and Ou Jun, two officers, to accompany her… it obviously ant sothing major was up.
Moreover, judging by Chuyi’s expression, it didn’t seem to be anything good.
“Chuyi…” Uncle Xia began, glancing at Huo Shiqian, then Ou Jun.
In the end, Uncle Xia’s gaze, full of deep concern, settled on Xia Chuyi as he asked, “What exactly happened?”
“Yes, what happened?” Seeing this, Aunt Xia also asked worriedly.
Seeing the worried looks of Uncle and Aunt Xia, Xia Chuyi felt very complicated inside.
Sighing slightly, Xia Chuyi said, “It’s a long story…”
Without finishing her sentence.
Seeing her like this, Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia exchanged a glance.
“Chuyi, here’s the deal, it’s almost closing ti anyway, let’s not talk in the store, we can discuss things at ho!” In the end, Uncle Xia decisively stated.
“Hmm, alright.” Hearing Uncle Xia say this, Xia Chuyi naturally agreed.
For her, as long as she delayed revealing that she wasn’t the real Xia Chuyi, she could remain their niece just a bit longer.
