Shen You got up from the bed and sat up.

She smiled weakly at Xie Xiao and said, “Ling Rui was not feeling well and fainted. The teacher sent him to the hospital.”

“What about you? Are you okay?” Xie Xiao looked at Shen You up and down with concern.

Her listless look was rarely seen!

Shen You shook her head and said with a chuckle, “I’m fine! You don’t have to worry!”

“How not to worry! You said you would not take long but in the end, you didn’t come back the whole afternoon!” Xie Xiao couldn’t help but complain.

“We all guessed that the two of you went out to fight!” Xie Xiao pouted and said.

The corner of Shen You’s mouth twitched slightly. “Why would we fight?”

Xie Xiao frowned and thought about it seriously. “That’s true! Even if it’s a relationship issue, the two of you should be on the same side!”

Hearing that, Shen You could not help but roll her eyes. She slapped Xie Xiao’s arm. “We are not on the same side!”

“How can that be! You guys…” Xie Xiao was about to explain, but Shen You stopped her.

“I’m hungry. Do you have anything to eat?” Shen You looked at Xie Xiao and asked, blinking her eyes.

Xie Xiao immediately slapped her head and said, “Sister had asked me to bring you some food but I forgot about it! Wait for me!”

Xie Xiao immediately turned around and ran out after she finished speaking.

Shen You looked at Xie Xiao running out and shook her head with a bitter smile.

Xie Xiao always seemed to be in a hurry. And she could solve everything easily at her end.

Shen You was even a little envious of Xie Xiao.

A moment later, Xie Xiao came back. “Hey! Sister said you look a little tired, so she made you some nourishing soup.”

“Do you want me to feed you?” Xie Xiao scooped the soup and winked at Shen You.

Shen You quickly reached out her hand and declined, “No, thanks!”

She took over the soup bowl, scooped the soup one mouthful at a time, and drank it quietly.

Xie Xiao looked at Shen You’s expression. A moment later, she straightened her face and asked, “Shen You, I think there’s something wrong with the engagement between Huo Xiao and Wu Qi.”

Shen You did not want to hear anything related to this matter. Just as she was about to tell Xie Xiao, she was stopped by her.

“Don’t rush, listen to me.” Xie Xiao stopped Shen You.

“If Huo Xiao wanted to get engaged to someone, I think with your previous relationship with him, he would have told you in advance.” Xie Xiao looked into Shen You’s eyes and said seriously.

“But this matter did not come out from Huo Xiao.” Xie Xiao added her thoughts again.

“We didn’t even hear him say anything about getting engaged, did we?” Xie Xiao guessed.

Shen You looked at Xie Xiao’s serious expression and fell into deep thought.

Yes!

She had heard about Huo Xiao’s engagement from Zhu Ge.

Then, Ling Rui added fuel to the fire.

Huo Xiao had wanted to tell her about the engagement several times, but she had rejected him.

She didn’t want to hear anything about Huo Xiao’s engagement, but maybe he had something to explain!

At this moment, the anger that had been stifling Shen You’s heart seemed to have been cleared.

Shen You looked at Xie Xiao and said, “Continue.”

As Shen You was listening, Xie Xiao smiled and said, “So I feel that there might be something behind this.”

“Also, I heard that the Wu family has been entering and leaving the Huo family frequently recently, but Wu Qi has never been there,” Xie Xiao continued.

“Don’t you think it’s strange? The two of them are engaged, but the main characters rarely appear,” Xie Xiao voiced her thoughts again.

“I think we should listen to what Huo Xiao has to say,” Xie Xiao said seriously.

Hearing Xie Xiao’s words, Shen You immediately fell into deep thought again.

A moment later, she nodded. “Okay! If Huo Xiao comes looking for me again, I will talk to him.”

After listening to Shen You’s words, Xie Xiao’s heart finally settled down.

Xie Xiao patted her chest and said, “I am indeed an old mother! I worry about you two every day!”

“What do you mean by you two!” Shen You could not help but pat Xie Xiao’s hand.

However, Xie Xiao said happily, “Don’t tell me that you don’t have feelings for Huo Xiao!”

Xie Xiao’s question stumped Shen You.

Didn’t she have any feelings for him?

Shen You herself could not understand it now!

She had only wanted to stay by Huo Xiao’s side, but that was just to survive.

Now, even if she risked her life, she still wanted to escape from Huo Xiao…

Didn’t she have any feelings for Huo Xiao?
