Chapter 1101 - 7:

Mrs. Ou spoke with her eyes turning redder, and tears started falling unknowingly.

Moved by Mrs. Ou, Xia Chuyi’s eyes also turned slightly red, and she said, "Mom, I finished my studies early and returned home ahead of schedule."

After wiping her eyes slightly, Xia Chuyi continued, "I only returned yesterday. I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want you to worry in the meantime..."

Xia Chuyi looked gently at her mother and explained, "

"You child! Even if you don’t tell me, as long as you’re not by my side, I worry about you every day!" As she spoke, Mrs. Ou’s tears flowed even more fiercely.

"Mom..." Hearing Mrs. Ou’s words, Xia Chuyi choked up, "I finished my studies early and returned home ahead of schedule."

The mother and daughter cried together for a while before letting go.

"Come, come, let’s go inside!" Mrs. Ou pulled her daughter along, saying, "Let’s call your dad, call your brother, have them all come back to welcome you!"

"Okay." Xia Chuyi nodded, turned, and said to Huo Shiqian, "Shiqian, let’s go inside."

Mrs. Ou, still immersed in her emotions, didn’t notice the change in tone between Xia Chuyi and Huo Shiqian.

She just thought Huo Shiqian was bringing her daughter back.

After the three went inside, Mrs. Ou immediately instructed her maid to go buy groceries and make more of Xia Chuyi’s favorite dishes.

Then, she called the military unit to inform her husband about Xia Chuyi’s return.

Only then did she sit down with Xia Chuyi and start asking specifics about her time in the United States.

Of course, Xia Chuyi told her everything.

However, it wasn’t everything without reservation.

Some of the hardships and grievances, she still wouldn’t tell Mrs. Ou.

After talking for a while.

Xia Chuyi found a pause and said to Mrs. Ou, "Mom, there’s something I need to tell you..."

Seeing Xia Chuyi hesitating to speak, Mrs. Ou smiled and encouraged her, "Whatever it is, just say it, child. No matter what you do, I’ll always support you."

"Mom, well, I..." Xia Chuyi opened her mouth and glanced at Huo Shiqian.

"Auntie, Chuyi and I have already registered our marriage." At this moment, prompted by Xia Chuyi’s glance, Huo Shiqian calmly stated,

"Registered..." Mrs. Ou didn’t react for a moment.

"Registered!" When she realized, Mrs. Ou exclaimed, "You’ve already registered your marriage?"

Completely incredulous, Mrs. Ou immediately turned to her daughter and urgently asked, "You two got the marriage certificate? When did this happen?"

"Ahem." Xia Chuyi felt a bit embarrassed and said, "Just today."

"Today? Really today..." Mrs. Ou looked a bit dazed and said, "So, as soon as you returned, you went to get the marriage certificate with Huo Shiqian?"

"Mom, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hide it." Seeing Mrs. Ou like this, Xia Chuyi immediately said, "I just, I was just afraid that Dad wouldn’t agree, and in a moment of impulse..."

At this moment, Xia Chuyi felt she indeed had been too impulsive.

However, since everything was already a done deal, Xia Chuyi said, "Mom, didn’t I tell you before? Once I graduate, I would marry Huo Shiqian."

"But you know Dad’s attitude." Xia Chuyi said somewhat helplessly, "Every time we talk on the phone, Dad keeps brainwashing me, telling me to postpone the marriage."

"In this situation, what do you think he would do once I return and graduate?"
