Return to the Huo family.

Xiang Xuan got off the car and went to the east courtyard villa. There was no need to pass by the main house to meet the Huo family.

After entering the house, Zhou Wei put out the refreshments.

He said: "The Ninth Young Master has gone out to do some errands temporarily. The time when the Ninth Young Master will come back is not yet certain. Young Mistress, is there anything you would like to eat for dinner?"

Xiang Xuan responded: "It's okay. He won't come back to eat at night, right?"

Zhou Wei said: "Not sure, young mistress, do you want to wait for Ninth Young Master to come back and eat together?"

"Ask him." Xiang Xuan didn't receive Huo Yanzhou's message or call, so she didn't bother to ask.

Zhou Wei nodded and retreated.

Huo Yanzhou considered that Xiang Xuan liked reading, so when he returned to the imperial capital, he moved all the books in Langting's study room. He even set aside half of the study room specifically for resting and reading.

Right now, she was sitting in the living room, reading a book and passing the time.

She doesn't need to do anything for the time being, she just needs to wait for Teacher Kamo to call back.

After watching for about twenty minutes, the bodyguard came in from outside, stood not far away, and bowed slightly: "Young lady, the fourth and fifth ladies are here. They said they came to see you."

"Well, invite them in."

Xiang Xuan put away the book and put it in the drawer of the coffee table.

Huo Siya and Huo Mengyuan walked in each carrying gifts.

Xiang Xuan stood up and said, "Fourth sister, fifth sister."

When the two of them heard her taking the initiative to call her, they were a little uncomfortable. After all, her behavior at the dinner table at noon made them think this girl was too cool.

"Did it bother you?" Huo Mengyuan asked considerately.

"No, I'm free. Please take a seat." Xiang Xuan's attitude was calm, and he didn't feel alienated.

Huo Siya had already placed the gift on the coffee table, "I didn't know you liked it. I bought it based on my feeling. Ninth brother and sister, don't dislike it."

Xiang Xuan took a closer look and saw that it was Nanzhu brand jewelry. She smiled slightly and said, "There is no woman who doesn't like jewelry."

Seeing how directly and frankly she spoke, Hosya had a new impression of her.

These nine younger siblings are quite interesting.

Immediately, Huo Mengyuan also put the gift on the table implicitly, "I don't know if my ninth brother and sister will like what I chose."

Seeing this, Xiang Xuan said, "Thank you, but I didn't prepare any gifts."

Huo Siya smiled and said: "It's your first time to come to the door. Of course, we, the elder brothers and sisters, bought it. There is no reason for you to buy it."

Faced with their enthusiasm, Xiang Xuan only smiled in response.

The two sisters talked about domestic matters and did not ask excessive questions. The most asked questions were about Huo Yanzhou's living conditions in Huicheng. On the other hand, Huo Siya asked some obscure questions, but Xiang Xuan dealt with them vaguely.

When they felt it was almost the same, the two sisters made excuses and left one after another.

As soon as they left, Zhou Wei ordered people to clear away all the tea cups and other things on the coffee table.

Xiang Xuan looked at the two gift boxes thoughtfully and asked, "Do these two Miss Huo have good feelings for Huo Yanzhou?"

Seeing this question, Zhou Wei expressed his opinion: "Profits come first, and it is natural for everyone to choose people who are on the united front. The Huo family is a big family, and there will be supporters."

After hearing this, Xiang Xuan understood.

It seems that the situation of the Huo family is more complicated than that of the Qian family.

"I heard that Miss Qianhui from Qianjia is getting engaged to Huo Shijin?"

Zhou Wei didn't think there was anything wrong with the young mistress asking this question. He hummed and said, "The engagement date will be set in half a month. The engagement banquet will be held in the back garden of the Huo family and will not be made public."

Xiang Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly. It looked like he would see most of the Qian family members that day.

Including grandpa.

Guanlanzhai.

Huo Yanzhou and others sat around a round table, with a lotus incense stand in the middle, sandalwood rising slowly, and the entire room was filled with an elegant light fragrance.

"Brother Ninth, I don't understand what the point of enduring until now is." Old Wu Duanfei, who was sitting next to Shen Qiuting, had a dark face from beginning to end. Faced with what happened during this period, he In the imperial capital, I was worried every day, but I still had to obey and not take action.

I finally couldn't bear it until Brother Ninth and the others came to the imperial capital, so I let it out.

He continued unhappily: "If you ask me, just take him to Jinsha, a no-man's land, and kill him. There are so many descendants, who cares if one of them dies on horseback."

Everyone else can understand Duan Fei being so annoyed.

But it was Huo Yanzhou who made the decision.

Although Huo Yanzhou was only the third among them, he was the one who took care of everything.

The boss who rarely shows up likes Jiang Qi, who is the hands-off shopkeeper.

Therefore, he became the one who called the shots.

Su Youchen patted Duan Fei on the shoulder: "Fifth brother, calm down the fire. Come on, have a sip of tea."

Duan Fei took it and drank it in one gulp. Looking at Brother Ninth who was silent, he asked: "Brother Ninth, just say something and I will take care of the other things."

Shen Qiuting stared at him sideways and said quietly: "Do you know that we have been unable to investigate the things that have happened frequently recently? So far, we have failed to investigate. Moreover, the other party can completely guess our actions, as if they know our affairs well. What do you mean? , in this case, should we alert the enemy?"

"but......"

"I know what you are going to say. We do have a list of people to be killed at present, but if there is a bomb in these lists, the risk we will bear will be very high. Think about the planned tasks in TC, there cannot be Any loss."

Duan Fei was told that he was unable to refute, so he could only drink tea.

At this time, Jiang Qicai said: "So, no matter what, we can't be too hasty now. Anyway, we have been here for so many years. Do we still have to wait for a while? If we can completely uproot ourselves this time, we can seize what we really want." The one to catch.”

"Isn't that right, Lao Jiu?"

While speaking, he bumped Huo Yanzhou's shoulder with his shoulder.

Holding the tea cup, Huo Yanzhou, who had never spoken a word, raised his eyelids, and his dark black eyes were as calm as an endless abyss. "Next time, don't let me hear anyone complaining. If you feel like you can't stand it anymore, then go to the Flag Arena and give them a few punches, and the anger will naturally go away."

Although Huo Yanzhou spoke without any emotion, it still made Duan Fei feel intimidated, and he completely lost his dissatisfaction.

"I know very well what I should do and what I shouldn't do. If you feel dissatisfied with what I explain, then get out."

When Duan Fei heard this, he immediately explained: "Brother Ninth, I'm not dissatisfied, I just think we shouldn't waste so much time."

Huo Yanzhou stared at him solemnly: "Is there a difference?"

Duan Fei pursed his lips: "...No difference."

He looked away grimly.

Jiang Qi started to say good things to the side: "Okay, okay, Lao Wu already knows that he was wrong, just pretend that he complained just now, let's talk about the next thing. After all, this time we have completely returned to the Imperial Capital, then It’s time to explain what should be done next.”
