How can he let others know about Xiaoxiao’s matter?

Yesterday at Huo’s residence, Xiaoxiao was already furious with only a few people knowing about it. If he let Lu Jingyi know about it, Xiaoxiao would definitely not forgive him.

“It’s really nothing. Why do all of you have such a big mouth? You keep on asking!”

Lu Jingyi and the others looked at each other, then tackled Yi Qian and pressed his body down to “interrogate” fiercely.

Huo Xiaoxiao laid on the table, and was not interested.#pleasereadthischapterat foxaholic.com

She raised her hand and rubbed her eyes.

In the morning, after Aunt Zhao’s cold compress and medication, the swelling of her eyes had become much better. If you didn’t look at it carefully, you could hardly see the redness and swelling.

Due to her action, the screen of her phone watch on her wrist flickered, Huo Xiaoxiao opened the interface of the phone watch and tapped the picture of Old Master Huo.

She told grandpa before that when she tapped the picture, it meant that she missed him and the phone would vibrate.

Sure enough, after she finished tapping, her phone watch vibrated.

Old Master Huo also tapped on the screen of his mobile phone, and was happy to play this game with his granddaughter.

She slid her phone watch screen to the right, and she tapped on her dad’s picture, expectantly waiting for the phone watch to vibrate.

But one minute passed, two minutes passed, ten minutes passed, but still her phone watch did not vibrate.

She didn’t give up and tapped on her dad’s picture again, but there was still no vibration.

He should be busy so he didn’t have time to look at his phone.

Huo Xiaoxiao thought dispiritedly.

Finally, when the school was over, Huo Xiaoxiao, who was in high spirits, carried her schoolbag and waited for Aunt Zhao to pick her up.

As soon as she saw Aunt Zhao, she couldn’t wait and ran over.

“Auntie, you are finally here! Let’s go home quickly!”

Aunt Zhao’s expression was not like usual, her eyebrows were furrowed slightly, and she reluctantly smiled, “Okay, let’s go home.”

The sensitive Huo Xiaoxiao quickly noticed that Aunt Zhao was emotionally wrong and asked, “Auntie, what’s the matter?”

Aunt Zhao wanted to speak but stopped herself.

Sooner or later Huo Xiaoxiao would know about such a huge matter, but she was still a child, and she probably wouldn’t understand it even if she said something. After thinking about it, she smiled and said, “It’s nothing, Auntie is just a bit tired.”

“Auntie, you have to take a good rest. If you are tired, don’t pick me up. Just let the driver pick me up.”#pleasereadthischapterat foxaholic.com

“Okay, I know you love me dearly.”

Looking at the sensible and cute Xiaoxiao, Aunt Zhao sighed quietly.

Xiaoxiao was still so small, she hoped for Young master Huo to not meet with any mishap .

Half an hour later, the car slowly drove into Huo’s mansion. As soon as she got off, Huo Xiaoxiao couldn’t wait and ran inside.

Aunt Zhao hugged her and refused to let her in. “Xiaoxiao, slow down. Auntie has to tell you something.”

“What is it, Auntie?”

“Grandpa is a bit busy today. After entering, can you go to your room and play obediently? Don’t disturb grandpa. Aunt Zhao will play with you, okay?”

Aunt Zhao’s words made Xiaoxiao frown.

Grandpa was busy?

Impossible!

Her grandfather has been recuperating at home since he retired, and never took over any work or even did any work. How could he be busy?

“Auntie, did… something happen?”

Aunt Zhao knew that she was much more sensible than her peers, but she did not expect her to ask bluntly, and she had guessed it.

“Xiaoxiao, don’t worry. With grandpa here, nothing will happen. Let’s go directly upstairs, and don’t disturb grandpa, okay?”

Aunt Zhao led her inside.

In the living room, Old Master Huo was sitting on the sofa, talking angrily over the phone.

“Professor Duan, at the beginning, you were personally responsible for this tomb. Before you decided to dig the tomb, I think you should be very clear with your expertise, on whether anyone had touched the tomb or not”

“Evidence? What does that evidence prove? Does that prove that my son is crowing like a cock and stealing like a dog and is breaking the rules? ”

“Anonymous report? That’s ridiculous!”

“Okay, I’ll wait for your news.”

With those few words, Huo Xiaoxiao had understood the whole matter.

Someone had reported anonymously that her father hired someone to destroy the ancient tomb for the Luming mountain project.

She suddenly remembered for a moment that she had indeed heard her father talk about digging ancient tombs. Could it be…

No, it was impossible!

""

Her father would never do such a thing!

As soon as the idea came out, Huo Xiaoxiao immediately denied it.

In the dream, her father did look for someone to destroy the ancient tomb, but that was ‘Huo Suicheng’ who was vicious and unscrupulous for the benefit, not her father ‘Huo Suicheng’ right now.

Her father had promised her that he would never do bad things again.

This thing was definitely not done by her dad!

Anonymous report?

Someone must have framed her father!

Huo Xiaoxiao thought for a while. The person in his dream who had been against Huo Suicheng was Wen Yang, and he exposed the tomb deliberately destroyed by Huo Suicheng.

Although she had never seen Wen Yang, she always felt that this matter had nothing to do with Wen Yang.

Maybe he really did it!

Aunt Zhao simply picked up Huo Xiaoxiao and walked upstairs quickly.

“Auntie, let me down, I…”

“Xiaoxiao, your grandpa is busy, let’s not disturb grandpa.”

“I won’t bother grandpa, really.  Auntie, let me down.”

“Xiaoxiao…”

“Auntie, believe me. I really won’t disturb grandpa.”

Aunt Zhao had no choice but to put her down.

Huo Xiaoxiao ran to Old master Huo. Instead of disturbing his call, she sat quietly and waited.

After Old Master Huo finished his last call and hung up, he leaned on the sofa and sighed deeply.

Huo Xiaoxiao quietly climbed onto the sofa and knelt down beside Old Master Huo, rubbing his temples.

“Grandpa.”

Old Master Huo looked at her and said with a smile, “Xiaoxiao, go upstairs first. Grandpa has something to do.”

“Is it daddy?”

Old Master Huo held her hands which were rubbing his temples. “Little children shouldn’t ask so many questions. Just remember that no matter what others say about your daddy, don’t believe it.”

“Yes, I believe Daddy wouldn’t do such bad things, just like how Grandpa believed that I didn’t poop on Daddy yesterday.”

Old Master Huo was relieved to hold her in his arms.

“Grandpa, when will Daddy be back?”

“Soon, when you wake up, your daddy will be back already.”

Huo Xiaoxiao leaned against Old Master Huo’s arms and looked at the direction of the door, “Then can I stay here with Grandpa and wait for Daddy to come back?”

Old Master Huo’s eyes were not very clear and he looked at the door. He was no longer angry and anxious when he began to understand the situation. He held Huo Xiaoxiao, and his anxious mood was calmed by the sudden peace of mind.

He sighed, “Grandpa doesn’t know when your father will come back too.”

“Daddy didn’t do anything bad. He will be back soon. Don’t worry, Grandpa.”

“Okay, Grandpa won’t be worried.”
