“Huo ShaoJie, Jiang Xu, what on earth is going on here?”
Huo ShaoJie, who had just rushed over from the company, happened to see Jiang Xu bringing Huo Mei Shu out from the building. Seeing Huo Mei Shu's face ashen with anger, he hurried to ask.
“Let's get her in the car first, Aunt Lu is fine.”
Jiang Xu had also opened his eyes wide, he would never have imagined that not only did this mother and daughter have an argument, they actually got into a physical altercation.
This young miss had never suffered any hardship from a young age, the only downfall was probably with Gu ChengYan.
How could she tolerate such grievances?
Huo ShaoJie believed Jiang Xu, and helped to get the still furious Huo Mei Shu into the car. They found a tea bar and sat down.
“Are you done with your antics? Do you think there is not enough going on with the family already?”
Seeing that Huo Mei Shu was still making a fuss, Huo ShaoJie lost his temper.
Although Huo Mei Shu was usually disrespectful towards him, when she really saw Huo ShaoJie angry, she was still a little afraid inside.
She hung her head with an extremely aggrieved expression, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
Seeing her like this, Huo ShaoJie was both angry and helpless. He had no choice but to ask Jiang Xu.
Jiang Xu told the whole story truthfully.
"Just because of this?"
Huo ShaoJie simply felt it was unbelievable. This was not at all like his mother’s personality.
Jiang Xu nodded and glanced at Huo Mei Shu beside him, “Mei Shu was actually worried that Aunt Lu was being deceived. She just lost her temper in the heat of the moment and said those things.”
“Aunt Lu was probably not feeling great either, so they started arguing.”
“Aunt Lu said she won't be returning to the Huo Family for now. It looks like she might stay with Uncle Yin.”
“Although Aunt Lu didn't explain anything, I know her. She is a very steady and self-respecting person.”
“If she didn't really have deep feelings for Uncle Yin, she probably wouldn't have spent the night out last night either.”
Jiang Xu felt extremely frustrated.
Every time this young miss asked him to help with something, it was always some bizarre matter.
“Aunt Lu has had a hard life. She probably feels that you've all grown up and no one cares about her anymore, so she said those things.”
“There's a lot going on in the Huo Family now. If you can put your mind at ease, let Aunt Lu relax and unwind for a while.”
“That Uncle Yin seems decent to me. Since they are old acquaintances, he should treat Aunt Lu well.”
Jiang Xu explained, recalling the earlier scene, he was very embarrassed as a junior!
But on second thoughts, it was also human nature.
After all, Aunt Lu was a human being of flesh and blood. She had raised three children in the Huo Family for half her life.
If she could meet a confidante for the second half of her life, that would not necessarily be a bad thing.
Huo ShaoJie nodded, and glanced at the time on his watch.
“I understand what happened now. I will get to the bottom of this.”
“Your elder brother and sister-in-law are grieving now. Don't bother them with this matter.”
“And don't say anything to Grandma, or Mum won't be able to speak her mind in front of the old lady in future.”
He instructed Huo Mei Shu, then stood up and patted Jiang Xu on the shoulder.
“Jiang Xu, I'll have to trouble you to send her back. Let’s meet up when we are free and I’ll treat you to a meal.”
After saying that, he left.
Seeing that Huo Mei Shu was still crying, Jiang Xu handed her some tissue.
“I know you feel wronged. Didn't you always want to go to that Thai restaurant? I’ll bring you there, how about it?”
Huo Mei Shu was the kind of person whose mood came and went very quickly.
Except for matters related to Gu ChengYan.
“You’re paying?”
She blew her nose and looked up at Jiang Xu with watery eyes.
Jiang Xu laughed in spite of himself, “Young miss, when have I not paid before?”
