Chapter 419: It's a pity for your grandfather
The decision has been made, and everyone has no objections.
Because of Ao Chen, everyone's party ended early, Chu Ming helped Chen Jiru send Ao Chen back, and in a blink of an eye, only Nie Xixi and Xia Mosheng were left.
On the way back, the two walked side by side, coupled with the silent night scene, it was beautiful for a while.
Time passed bit by bit, Nie Xixi didn't wait to speak, and the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly vibrate.
Frowning slightly, Nie Xixi picked up the phone, looked at the unfamiliar number on it and frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment and finally pressed answer.
"Hello." Nie Xixi's thin lips opened lightly, and as soon as the voice fell, the sound on the other side directly made Nie Xixi stunned in place.
Xia Mosheng looked at Nie Xixi's reaction, and there was a trace of worry on his face, "Xixi, what's wrong?" ”
Listening to Xia Mosheng's words, Nie Xixi shook his head gently, just pursed his lips slightly, and quietly listened to the words on the other side of the phone, without speaking.
After a long time, it seemed that the other party had finished saying everything he wanted to say, and Nie Xixi finally found his voice, his lips opened lightly, and he said slowly, "Grandpa, I know, I will go back tomorrow." ”
After saying a few simple greetings, he hung up the phone.
Xia Mosheng on the side frowned slightly, and looked at Nie Xixi's face with a little more solemnity and seriousness, "Xixi, what's going on?" ”
With a sigh of relief, Nie Xixi's clear eyes were also stained with a touch of tiredness, just pressed his eyebrows, and said slowly, "It was Old Man Huo's phone call just now, let me go back to the old house tomorrow." ”
Xia Mosheng listened to Nie Xixi's words, and the expression on his face became a little more solemn, but he twisted his eyebrows, and there was a complicated light in his eyes, "Huo Lingxi, are you going with me?" ”
Hearing this, Nie Xixi shook his head gently, "He won't go, he has been in the military region recently, and Old Man Huo also said it, because Huo Lingxi has no time recently, I can go over by myself." ”
"Then do you know that the current Huo family and the Zhou family are standing together?" Xia Mosheng twisted his eyebrows and said to Nie Xixi, "If you go to the Huo Mansion alone, you may even encounter danger. ”
Nie Xixi listened to Xia Mosheng's words, his brows furrowed slightly, and there was a firmness in his eyes.
"No, although I have some misunderstandings and unpleasantness with the old man, I believe in him as a person." Saying that, Nie Xixi's clear eyes brought a faint smile, and cast a reassuring look towards Xia Mosheng, his lips opened lightly, and he slowly continued, "And I just need a chance to solve the misunderstanding between us for so long, after all, we are all a family now, if there is too deep estrangement because of these things, it will not be good for me or Huo Lingxi." ”
Listening to Nie Xixi's words,
Xia Mosheng's brow still showed no signs of stretching, but in the end he didn't say anything more.
"I know your worries and concerns." Nie Xixi sighed lightly and continued to speak towards Xia Mosheng, "I will pay attention to safety, it will be fine, so you can rest assured." ”
Xia Mosheng listened to Nie Xixi's words, and finally just sighed helplessly, "Okay, but as long as you find something wrong, contact me immediately, or leave immediately, everything is based on your safety, you know?" ”
"Okay." Nie Xixi listened to Xia Mosheng's words and nodded lightly, with a faint smile on his face.
For safety, Nie Xixi still returned to the staff dormitory of the research institute, and after knowing about this incident, Xia Mosheng and Ao Chen also moved in, and the contact between everyone was much easier for a while.
At this time, in the military region, Huo Lingyu sat in front of his desk, his angular face was already full of anger, and his slender fingers were tapping on the desktop in front of him, full of rhythm, and mixed with a trace of pressure as if it was directly hitting people's hearts, which made people's hearts palpitate.
Qin Fen stood in front of Huo Lingxi, hanging his head, and his face was also solemn.
It seemed that after thinking about it for a long time, Huo Lingyu slowly stopped the movements in his hand, his indifferent eyes swept towards Qin Fen in front of him, and his thin lips lightly opened, "You said that Qin Dunian has been to Huo Mansion?" ”
Listening to Huo Lingxi's words, Qin Fen immediately lowered his head and said respectfully, "Yes." ”
Qin Fen's words fell, and Huo Lingxi's long and narrow eyes pursed slightly, revealing a hint of danger, "Can Qin Dunian's location be determined now?" ”
"Not yet, but ......" Qin Fen's voice hesitated slightly for a moment before he raised his head and continued towards Huo Lingxi, "But Old Man Huo invited the young lady to go back to the old mansion tomorrow." ”
When the words fell, Huo Lingyu's indifferent and cold face just now became a little fierce in an instant, and the danger in his eyes became a little thicker.
The thin and cool lips were tightly pursed into a line, Huo Linghui just looked at Qin Fen in front of him lightly, and did not speak, his ink-colored eyes flickered slightly, with a trace of complicated light.
Qin Fen told Huo Lingxi that Old Man Huo invited Nie Xixi, and there was no need to doubt or hesitate anymore, this invitation, Nie Xixi would definitely go!
Although he knew that Old Man Huo would not do anything excessive to Nie Xixi, he couldn't stand Qin Dunian's methods against Old Man Huo, or Qin Dunian might also directly do something to Nie Xixi, leaving his field of vision, all his means would become unguardable.
Thinking about it, the look in Huo Lingyu's eyes became a little more ugly.
And the time that Nie Xixi agreed with Old Man Huo was the morning of the next day.
After getting up in the morning, Nie Xixi simply changed into one
A white dress.
The simple skirt has no superfluous decorations, but it outlines her beautiful figure to the fullest, two pairs of slender legs, with an indescribable sense of beauty, a palm-sized little face, a little powder, but it is not inferior at all, but her delicate facial features are displayed without covering, and it is just beautiful for a while.
Nie Xixi didn't have a trace of delay, simply took care of himself and rushed directly to the old mansion.
Just like what Old Man Huo said on the phone, when Nie Xixi arrived, there was no one in the old mansion, only Old Man Huo himself was sitting in the center of the living room, as if waiting for her.
I haven't seen him for a long time, and Nie Xixi also found that Old Man Huo's face seemed to have aged for dozens of years in just a few days, and even those stern eyes were stained with a bit of turbidity and vicissitudes, as if he had already experienced a lot of pressure and tribulation.
After Old Man Huo saw Nie Xixi, he just raised his eyes lightly, nodded in a gesture, and motioned for Nie Xixi to sit aside.
Looking at Old Man Huo's eyes, a faint smile also bloomed on Nie Xixi's delicate little face, revealing a sense of respect, and then he said lightly, "Grandpa." ”
"Hmm." Listening to Nie Xixi's words, Old Man Huo just spit out a word lightly, and then slowly withdrew his gaze, and his cloudy old eyes were unconsciously stained with a touch of complicated emotions, "It's good to come here, we haven't seen each other for a long time." ”
Listening to Old Man Huo's words, Nie Xixi nodded lightly, and his face was still well-behaved and respectful.
Old Man Huo looked at Nie Xixi in front of him, and there was a complicated emotion in his eyes, "You often came to our house when you were a child, but unfortunately you moved away later, and you don't remember." ”
Nie Xixi listened to Old Man Huo's words, and the expression on his face slowed down slightly, "Grandpa Huo, although I don't remember what happened at that time, I often hear Grandpa mention it at home. ”
Old Man Huo listened to Nie Xixi's words, the expression on his face stiffened slightly, and there was some struggle in his eyes, but in the end, he just sighed lightly, "It's a pity for your grandfather." ”
Speaking of grandpa, Nie Xixi's eyes unconsciously revealed a touch of sadness.
But it was only for a moment, looking at the look on Old Man Huo's face, Nie Xixi immediately burst into a smile, stepped forward to pour a cup of tea for Old Man Huo, spoke gently, and said comfortingly, "It's all over, grandpa has been talking about you since he was alive, with such a good friend as you, he has never had any regrets when he is dying." ”
"Yes, Lao Nie was indifferent when he died, those brothers back then belonged to him with the most generous heart, otherwise according to his ability, it would not be just such a position in the end." Saying that, Old Man Huo's face was stained with a trace of regret, "I was helped by him a lot." ”
One
As he spoke, Old Man Huo leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes gently, as if he recalled some sad past, and a faint sadness unconsciously diffused in the entire air, making the air become depressed and dead for a while.
Looking at the old man in front of him, Nie Xixi's eyes unconsciously became a little closer, and the estrangement in his heart before seemed to be gradually diluted with these past memories.
"Grandpa Huo, grandpa also said back then that he accepted a lot of help from you, presumably grandpa was like you to grandpa." As he spoke, the smile on Nie Xixi's face became a little gentler, a little less powerful and aggressive than before.
Listening to Nie Xixi's words, Old Man Huo just raised his head lightly, looking at Nie Xixi's smiling eyes in front of him, this gentle appearance made him stunned, and another figure unconsciously appeared in his mind again.
I have to admit that Nie Xixi is very beautiful now, and the beauty is excessive, just like Lin Gan back then.
At first, he also joked that Lin Gan married the Huo family, but the Huo family was stained and Lin Gan was blind.
But now thinking about this sentence, Old Man Huo only felt a burst of irony.
What's more, it is not only Lin Gan himself who is making that kind of anti-heaven experiment now, but also the girl in front of him, who is also the child he has always seen......
Thinking about it, Old Man Huo closed his eyes with some pain, took a deep breath, and waited to open his eyes again.
Those cloudy eyes have become firm, without any hesitation or hesitation, and even with a hint of determination.
