Chapter 1909 - Huo Ze and Xia Tang (113)


Chapter 1909: Huo Ze and Xia Tang (113)

The Huo family’s old mansion was built on a mountain and surrounded by water.

There were maple leaves on both sides of the road. It was unbelievably beautiful as they walked over.

It was Xia Cha’s first time coming to the Huo family’s old mansion.

She did not dare to think about it in the past.

The interior of the Huo family’s mansion was decorated in an antique Chinese style that was unique.

Old Master Huo was in a good mood. After asking Xia Cha what she liked, he instructed the kitchen to make some delicious food and then asked someone to send an iPad over. Xia Cha hurriedly shook her head and rejected him. “Grandpa Huo, I’m very happy to be able to have a meal at your house. I don’t want anything else.”

Old Master Huo looked at Xia Cha. “There’s only one chance. Young lady, don’t miss it.”

Xia Cha smiled and said, “When I earn more money in the future, I’ll go to the Huo family’s mall to spend my own money there.”

Old Master Huo had not met such an interesting girl for a long time and he was in a better mood.

While the chef was cooking, he pulled Xia Cha to play chess.

He had thought that Xia Cha’s chess skills were not good, but she won two of the three rounds.

She had probably let him win the last round.

“No, no, no. Little girl, go fishing with me.”

Although Old Master Huo had many children, there were very few who had time to accompany him.

The last person who had the patience to play chess and fish with him was Huo Heng.

Old Master Huo looked at Xia Cha, who was sitting beside him, watching him fish quietly. He seemed to have thought of something and asked, “Little girl, do you have a boyfriend?”

Xia Cha held her cheeks with both hands and shook her head.

“I know a person who’s a few years older than you. He’s a boy I like very much. His name is Huo Heng. Do you know him?”

Xia Cha’s heart skipped a beat when she heard Huo Heng’s name.

Why was the Old Master mentioning Huo Heng?

“It’s okay if you don’t know him. How about I call and ask him to come for dinner later?”

Xia Cha hurriedly waved her hand. “Grandpa Huo, I’m going abroad in a few days.”

Old Master Huo looked at Xia Cha’s clear and bright eyes and sighed. “What a pity.”

An hour later, the maid came to call Old Master Huo and Xia Cha back for dinner.

Xia Cha helped Old Master Huo up.

A large table of food had been prepared in the dining room.

The maid stood by the side to wait on her.

While the servants were serving the Old Master, Xia Cha accidentally caught a glimpse of the pin on her head.

It was actually a very ordinary hair pin.

But Xia Cha felt that it was familiar.

She searched through her mind and suddenly remembered that the pin was sold in a small jewelry store outside Harbor City University.

At that time, she went to school to settle the procedures of exchange students. She had passed by the small jewelry store and gone in to buy a hair pin.

At that time, Tang Yue and several of her good friends had also been present.

At that time, Tang Yue had chosen this old-fashioned hair pin and a female classmate asked her, “Yueyue, why are you still wearing this extremely old hair pin?”

“Of course it’s not for me. I bought this for my servant.”

“Wow, you have a servant in your house?”

“Yueyue, you’re so good to your maid!”

At that time, Xia Cha had seen an unnatural look in Tang Yue’s eyes.

Sensing that Xia Cha was looking at her, the servant who was scooping soup for the Old Master glanced at Xia Cha.

Their eyes met and the servant looked away in a panic.

Xia Cha stroked her nose, thinking that she was being rude by looking at the servant like this.

Seeing that Xia Cha had stopped staring at her, the maid stood behind the old man quietly after scooping the soup for him.

After dinner, Xia Cha accompanied the Old Master to the garden. The Old Master was not in good health and coughed a few times. The butler came over and reminded him that he should take his medicine and have an afternoon nap.

Xia Cha still had to go to the mall. After informing the Old Master, she left the Huo family’s old residence.

When she went to the living room, he saw the servant with the pin.

She was holding a packet of Chinese medicine and seemed to be going to the small kitchen to help the Old Master. When she saw Xia Cha, she only stared at her for a few seconds before quickly looking away.

Xia Cha walked toward the door.

Halfway there, she realized she had not brought her phone with her.

She had returned.

She found her phone on the sofa in the living room.

She had planned to leave, but when she thought of the servant with the pin, she walked toward the small kitchen.

Xia Cha found a hidden place and looked at the movements in the small kitchen through the window.

The maid was boiling the medicine carefully.

Xia Cha could not see anything wrong. She felt that she might have been too suspicious.

She was about to leave when another servant in the small kitchen said something to the servant with the hair pin and left the small kitchen.

The servant wearing the pin immediately looked around after the other servant had left.

Seeing that she was alone, she hurriedly took out a very small bottle from the servant’s uniform.

She squeezed two drops of transparent liquid into the medicine.

She had done it within a few seconds.

Xia Cha’s eyelashes fluttered.

She was not a young girl and would not think that the small bottle was a tonic that was good for the body.

Thinking of how Huo Ze got cancer back then because someone had done something to him, Xia Cha clenched her fists tightly.

A thin layer of sweat covered her palms.

Her kindness prevented her from turning a blind eye to this.

But if she made a hasty move, she might alert the enemy and put herself in a dangerous situation.

The maid handed the medicine to the butler.

The butler brought it to the Old Master’s room.

Recently, the Old Master had been feeling weak and his memory seemed to have worsened.

As the butler who had been serving him for many years, he felt that something was wrong. He had invited the family doctor to check on the Old Master, but could not find any problem.

The Old Master used to be a headstrong person. No matter how much he missed his children, he would not let them come back. But recently, he called from time to time to ask them to come home for dinner. In the beginning, everyone did as he said, but as time passed, they rejected him with the excuse of being busy with work.

The Old Master’s temperament had become more and more like a child.

Just like today, he had even run out secretly.

“Master, the medicine is here.”

Old Master Huo looked at the black bowl of medicine and frowned. “How much longer must I drink this bitter thing?”

“Master, three more mouthfuls will do.”

The butler prepared some fruits.

Old Master Huo waved his hand and said, “I’m not a woman. I don’t need that.” Then, he picked up the bowl.

At this moment, the door was pushed open.

Xia Cha stood at the door.

“Grandpa Huo, I-I regret it. I want to choose something from your shopping mall.”

The butler looked at Xia Cha, who was still panting, and frowned. A trace of unhappiness flashed past his eyes. Why did this young lady not know the rules at all? It was fine if she did not knock and come in, but she was even asking the Old Master for something while pretending not to want it just now!

The maid wearing a hair pin stood at the side. Hearing Xia Cha’s words, she looked at the old man who had not taken his medicine and felt a little panicked.
