“Take a seat, Jiuxiao.” The noble person asked the helper to arrange a chair for Huo Jiuxiao.
Huo Jiuxiao sat down and did not care about how others looked at him. He had a barrier around him, making him look very self-contained.
The few old men chatted about everything. It seemed that they were not disturbed by the entry of the younger generation. They were still indignantly lamenting some unfair things and some unimaginable policies. Unknowingly, they were talking about the military again. They were talking about a new type of pistol that the terrorist organization had recently developed. At this time, a few old men were passing around the pistol that was circulating on the Internet. In the end, it reached Huo Jiuxiao’s hands.
“Polar Eagle M17.” Huo Jiuxiao said casually, “This thing is an upgraded version of the Hydra P3. It’s semi-automatic and it’s much better in terms of accuracy and recoil. It also has a longer range than mainstream pistols. Most importantly, it’s cheaper. I’ve seen it when I was saving people in the Middle East.”
After hearing Huo Jiuxiao’s words, the old men couldn’t help but reveal shocked expressions.
“Your generation was born in a peaceful era. I didn’t expect that someone
would have seen a rainforest of bullets.” Men, especially those of the older generation, looked at young people as if they were weaklings. No matter how much wealth they had created and how powerful they were in the business world, they were not real men since they had never been on the battlefield or seen blood. Therefore, when Huo Jiuxiao casually mentioned the origin of the gun and described the modern battlefield, they would automatically think highly of Master Xiao.
“There are some things that need people to deal with it.” Huo Jiuxiao replied.
This time, the few old men looked at him with admiration. This admiration had nothing to do with his identity as a member of the Huo family. It was only because of his experience and ability that people believed that he could shoulder many things and live up to others’ expectations.
Because of this, the noble person had a new position for Huo Jiuxiao. That was because he felt that compared to the Huo family, Huo Shengyuan’s role was too irreplaceable. However, Huo Jiuxiao was unique. Huo Jiuxiao was a perfect match for the Lin Wanli that Elder Hua had mentioned. This was because the two of them did not have the impetuous and vain things that young people had. They were not worldly and did not flatter others. Instead, they focused on being themselves.
It was just a pity that Huo Jiuxiao’s ears…
The noble person sighed, feeling an indescribable regret.
The Huo family’s world was too restrictive for him. He could have shown off his skills in other areas.
“Uncle Xu, you don’t have to feel sorry for this. Everyone has their own destiny.”
Take it easy, don’t force it.
The noble person nodded. He had a little more appreciation for this young man who was not even thirty yet.
On the other side, Xu Huiwen woke up after about half an hour of sleep. The first thing she did when she woke up was panic. However, when she turned around and saw the flowers on the bedside table, a smile suddenly bloomed on her face. She picked up the flowers and sniffed them. She murmured, “Hubby, you haven’t given me flowers in a long time.”
At this moment, Lin Wanli carried the baby and walked in front of her. She said, “This is a gift from the baby to you. When you become a mother, you still have to be young and beautiful.”
However, Xu Huiwen cupped her face with her hands and said worriedly, “But you said that I always make the child cry. I can’t even take care of the child. I’m a good-for-nothing. I don’t even have the right to eat or sleep. No, I don’t have the right to spend. I don’t have the right to be beautiful. I can’t even take care of the baby. I don’t deserve it… I’m not worthy.”
As she listened to Xu Huiwen’s muttering, Lin Wanli’s throat burned. What kind of animal could torture his wife to such a state?
At the thought of this, Lin Wanli held back her sobs. She said to Xu Huiwen, “Look, the baby didn’t cry. You’re amazing. The baby didn’t cry the entire afternoon.”
“But she will still cry. I’m so afraid that she will cry. Can she not cry?”
“Look, the baby is awake. She really isn’t crying because she knows that Mommy isn’t feeling well. If you don’t believe me, look.” Lin Wanli passed the baby in her arms to Xu Huiwen to see, only to see the little darling sucking on the pacifier and observing her mother with her big eyes.
“She really didn’t cry…” Xu Huiwen shouted in surprise, “So she can stop crying. ”
“That’s because no one took care of the baby for you in the past. In the future, I’ll help you take care of the baby, okay?”
Xu Huiwen looked at the baby in Lin Wanli’s arms and her eyes revealed a trace of hope. However, at this moment, a sharp voice suddenly sounded behind the two of them.
“What do you mean by taking care of them together? Who told you to let outsiders in?” Mother Xu strode into the house and snatched the child from Lin Wanli’s arms.
Because of her rudeness, the baby instantly started crying. Xu Huiwen immediately fell into a stress reaction and covered her ears as she retreated.
“Madam, Miss Lin and Miss get along very well.” The helper immediately went forward to explain.
“What right does a person who has never given birth have to interfere in the matters of other people’s children and pregnant women? In order to gain connections, you’ll do anything, right?” Mother Xu coaxed the child as she glared at Lin Wanli and said viciously, “Chase her out.”
At this moment, the helper reminded Mother Xu. “Madam, it’s more important to appease Miss first. She had a good rest for forty minutes and did not wake up.”
“Get rid of the outsiders first. We don’t welcome outsiders here.” However, Mother Xu was very concerned about Lin Wanli’s offense.
Lin Wanli wasn’t a person who liked to force things. She had always respected the fate of others. She only felt sorry for Xu Huiwen. On one hand, she was mentally abused by her husband and mother-in-law, and on the other hand, she was wrongly cared for by her biological mother. This person probably did not have any room for recovery.
“No need, I can walk by myself.” Lin Wanli said calmly.
Just as she turned around to leave, Xu Huiwen suddenly ran over and grabbed
Lin Wanli’s hand. “Don’t go… Don’t go. The baby cried… The baby is crying!”
Lin Wanli lowered her head and looked at Xu Huiwen who was holding her hands. She turned to Mother Xu and said, “Let me coax the baby to sleep. I’ll leave after Miss Xu has calmed down. ”
At this time, Mother Xu seemed to have no other choice but to hand the child over reluctantly. Miraculously, as soon as the child entered Lin Wanli’s arms, she immediately stopped crying and screaming.
Seeing this, Xu Huiwen also quieted down.
Lin Wanli patiently coaxed the child. After the baby closed her eyes and fell asleep, she handed the child to the helper and said to Mother Xu, “I feel sorry for Miss Xu for having a mother like you who ignores her feelings. Why didn’t
Miss Xu ask her family for help? Madam, have you thought about it carefully?”
Lin Wanli turned around and left Xu Huiwen’s room..
