"Sister Sisi~" Yang Qian looked at Gu Sisi, hesitating to speak.
"What's wrong?" Gu Sisi noticed Yang Qian staring at her face. She was a bit puzzled. Was there something on her face? She reached out to touch her face, and her hand suddenly froze.
It turned out... she had been in floods of tears, but even she hadn't noticed.
"It's okay, Yang Qian. It's all in the past. Haha, what's wrong with me? Why am I crying? I didn't even notice."
Seeing Gu Sisi pretending to be relaxed, Yang Qian suddenly burst into tears with a "wow".
For a moment, it was Gu Sisi who was at a loss. What... was going on all of a sudden? Why was Yang Qian crying more sadly than her?
"Woohoo, Sister Sisi, why, why have you never told us what you've been through? Woohoo~ How could they, how could they treat you like this?"
Yang Qian sobbed and complained. She had mentally prepared herself in advance, but she really hadn't expected such an experience when Gu Sisi was telling the story.
But Sister Sisi still comforted her and said it was okay.
"You say it's okay while shedding tears. Gu Sisi, can you, can you stop being so strong? Can you stop bearing these things by yourself?"
"You've been through so much. Why didn't you tell me? Even if you didn't tell me, you could tell Huo Cheng and let him protect you. Why didn't you say anything!"
The more she thought about it, the more excited Yang Qian became. Her Sister Sisi had been bullied like that. How could this be allowed!
"Alright, alright, it's okay. Look, I'm fine now, aren't I? There's no such thing as being strong or bearing things alone. I don't have that. It's not as serious as you think. Stop crying. You'll look ugly if you cry any more."
Gu Sisi gently stroked Yang Qian's face and wiped away her tears.
"I will, I will. Sister Sisi, I'm sad for you."
"I know, I know. But you really can't cry anymore. You'll wake the baby up. It took so long for the baby to fall asleep." Seeing that Yang Qian was getting harder and harder to persuade, Gu Sisi had to bring up the baby.
"Right, right, right. We can't wake the baby up. I won't cry, Sister Sisi. I won't cry!"
Yang Qian sniffled, wiped her tears, and looked at Gu Sisi.
"Good, good. It's good that you've stopped crying. Look, your makeup is all smeared. Little cat." Gu Sisi said with a smile, poking Yang Qian's nose.
Outside the door, someone quietly closed the door.
Huo Cheng stood outside the door, clenching his fist tightly. He had heard everything Gu Sisi had said just now. Like Yang Qian, Huo Cheng had never heard Gu Sisi mention these things before.
If he hadn't been a bit worried about them and thought that Gu Sisi and Yang Qian should have taken the baby back to the room, and followed them quietly, maybe Huo Cheng would never have known what Gu Sisi had been through in the Huo family at that time.
Huo Cheng suddenly felt very regretful. He should have hidden Gu Sisi away and not let her get involved in everything about the Huo family. That terrifying place like the Huo family should never have let Gu Sisi step into it for a lifetime.
It was hard to imagine how helpless and scared Gu Sisi was when she was alone in the Huo family, facing those demons who ate people without spitting out the bones.
He punched the wall. He had originally planned to let the eldest sister and the second brother of the Huo family go, but now it seemed that he should teach them a lesson so that they would know what they should and shouldn't do.
Somewhere in the Huo Mansion,
Those black - clothed men suddenly appeared, took the eldest sister and the second brother of the Huo family away, and then brought them here. Soon, Huo Cheng and Jiang Lihao came.
"Humph, don't think that just because you've brought us here, you have a chance. Fourth brother, don't be so naive."
The second brother of the Huo family looked arrogant and didn't seem to take Huo Cheng seriously at all.
"Second brother, why are you wasting your breath on him? It's our bad luck to be caught today." The eldest sister of the Huo family sneered.
"What are you talking about, Eldest Sister Huo? Do you really think it's just your bad luck? Huo Cheng already knew you were coming. Otherwise, do you think there would be so many people lying in ambush waiting for you?"
Jiang Lihao really couldn't stand the attitudes of the eldest sister and the second brother of the Huo family. They were so arrogant when they came to snatch someone and so arrogant when they mocked Huo Cheng.
He didn't know where these two people got their confidence. Although Huo Cheng's strength was not as good as that of the Huo family now, it was not up to these two people to be domineering here. He had never seen elder sisters and brothers like the eldest sister and the second brother of the Huo family.
"Kid from the Jiang family, it's not up to you to teach us here."
The eldest sister of the Huo family didn't seem to take Jiang Lihao seriously at all. Her gorgeous face was full of disdain.
"What did you come here for?"
Huo Cheng reached out to stop Jiang Lihao, who was about to rush forward, and asked.
"What else? Isn't it obvious? To snatch the child!" The second brother of the Huo family still looked fearless.
Even relying on the fact that Huo Cheng hadn't tied their hands, he picked up the teacup on the tea table and poured himself a cup of tea on his own.
It was as if he was at home. Together with the eldest sister of the Huo family, they both seemed to be sure that they would leave here soon.
Huo Cheng looked at them with an inscrutable expression on his face. Finally, he handed them over to his subordinates and put them under house arrest.
"Brother Huo, what should we do with these two? Just lock them up and ignore them?" Jiang Lihao followed Huo Cheng out.
"Of course not. I'm keeping them for a purpose. You stay here and watch them. Don't let them play any tricks, but you also have to be careful. I don't know what else they've prepared this time."
Huo Cheng instructed Jiang Lihao, but Jiang Lihao felt more and more confused as he listened. What was going on? Didn't Brother Huo already know that these two people were coming, so he had arranged people in advance? From what Brother Huo said, it seemed that he didn't know in advance. Didn't that mean...
"I didn't know they were coming. Those black - clothed men have always been in the Huo Mansion to protect Gu Sisi and the baby."
Seeing Jiang Lihao looking confused and blank, Huo Cheng explained, and then went to find Gu Sisi and the others.
Actually, the appearance of these two people was really beyond Huo Cheng's expectation. He hadn't thought that these two people would be so bold as to come directly to his house to snatch someone.
It was just that this morning, the maids in the house, Sister Hua and Sister Hu, suddenly had family matters. This inevitably made Huo Cheng suspicious.
Huo Cheng had already secretly organized people to stay at home to protect Gu Sisi and the baby. After feeling something fishy this morning, he had sent more people. Finally, the appearance of the second brother and the eldest sister of the Huo family confirmed Huo Cheng's suspicion.
What puzzled Huo Cheng the most was why these two people had to come in person. Among their subordinates, just a few elites could have done this for them. Choosing to come themselves was really a bit suspicious.
