Chapter 1356 - 1355: Main Story Finale (Part 28)

Xia Chuyi covered Huo Shiqian’s hand and said, "Mmm."

The couple’s words almost moved Taozi, who was driving, to tears.

"Commander, Sister-in-law..." Taozi spoke up.

She was immediately silenced by a glance from Huo Shiqian and Xia Chuyi.

Such a killjoy.

Here, Huo Shiqian and Xia Chuyi finished their conversation.

When they returned home, Xia Chuyi was immediately embraced by Mrs. Ou, who gave her a gentle tap.

"Child, you’ve become a mother yourself. How can you be so worrisome?" Mrs. Ou cried, "You’ve only been back home a few years, and if something happens again, how do you expect me to live?"

Hearing Mrs. Ou’s words, Xia Chuyi felt quite bitter, for indeed she had been reckless this time.

She truly hadn’t anticipated an unexpected encounter with Xia Pan, which led Guo Jiumin to bring Xia Pan along as well, leaving Xia Chuyi very passive.

"Mom, I’m sorry, I won’t do it again," Xia Chuyi sincerely said to her mother.

"You..." Seeing her daughter so earnest, Mrs. Ou wiped her tears, ultimately unable to speak harshly and only said, "You must never do this again."

"Mmm." Xia Chuyi naturally agreed.

After Mrs. Ou finished speaking, Ou ZhenTing and Ou Jun also criticized Xia Chuyi for a while, finally sighing, "Thank goodness Shiqian came back in time, or this time Chuyi might not have escaped unscathed!"

After sighing, the family talked about the matter again, then brought up Xia Pan.

"This child, to increase the chances of everyone finding you, he bit his own finger!" Mrs. Ou sighed, "Chuyi, it wasn’t in vain that you once saved this child!"

"And Xia Ming, who has a natural affinity with animals and managed to find Chuyi with the dog she raised."

"Without these two children, who knows when we’d have found Chuyi." Mrs. Ou was very grateful.

Upon hearing Mrs. Ou’s words, Ou ZhenTing nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, indeed, these children are very good."

"Not only intelligent, but they also know gratitude. Compared to... it’s simply worlds apart."

Everyone knew the omitted name Ou ZhenTing referred to was Ou Lianlian.

Thus, the atmosphere instantly turned a bit sour.

No way around it, after raising a child for so many years, only to have raised someone with the heart of a wolf—it’s hard for anyone to bear.

"If she was half as good as these two children, she wouldn’t have ended up like this..." Ou ZhenTing said, shaking his head.

Clearly, the Ou Family already knew about Xia Lianlian’s passing.

"Forget it, let’s not speak of her. Shiqian, regarding Guo Jiumin and Xia Lan, whether for public or private reasons, you must rush to investigate," Ou ZhenTing said to Huo Shiqian, "Investigate clearly and give Mr. Wang an account, and also give us an account."

"Mmm." Huo Shiqian naturally responded.

"ZhenTing, stop talking about this, Shiqian just got back, let him see the child first," Mrs. Ou said at this time, "Both Shiqian and Chuyi, you’re parents now, and you must think more for the sake of the children."

Huo Shiqian and Xia Chuyi naturally had no objections, nodding in agreement.

To be honest, after being on the mission for so long, Huo Shiqian really missed his son.

Huo Shiwu was naturally bold; upon seeing his father, he wasn’t afraid at all, instead looking at him with big curious eyes.

Father and son quickly became familiar with each other.
