I Became Super Rich After Resigning-Chapter 278: Having Improper Thoughts About Little Xi

Chapter 278: Chapter 278: Having Improper Thoughts About Little Xi

The passing of Mr. Huo marked the end of an era for the Shiyi Group. His funeral was held at the A City Funeral Home, which was a grand ceremony.

Yuan Xi had been accompanying Huo Shiyuan at the Funeral Home to entertain the guests who came to mourn these past few days.

It was only after five days, at the hour calculated by the Taoist priest, that the funeral procession took place for cremation and then proceeded to the cemetery.

At the cemetery, after everyone else had left, Huo Shiyuan stood in front of Mr. Huo’s grave and did not leave for a long time.

Yuan Xi, dressed in a black dress with a white pearl headband, silently stayed by Huo Shiyuan’s side, knowing well how important the four elders were to him.

Yuan Xi held up a black umbrella, raising it to shield Huo Shiyuan from the fierce sun on the hill.

Given the weather today, and Huo Shiyuan wearing a black suit, he definitely shouldn’t be exposed to more sun.

Huo Shiyuan caught Yuan Xi’s gaze, and he drew her into his embrace.

Yuan Xi placed her hand on Huo Shiyuan’s back, "Shiyan, if you feel sad, just let it out and cry."

Huo Shiyuan rested his chin on Yuan Xi’s shoulder, holding her tightly. With only the two of them left in front of the cemetery, Huo Shiyuan finally shed the tears he had not let flow these past days.

After returning home from the cemetery, Yuan Xi saw her two children whom she hadn’t seen in several days.

Yuan Xi is not superstitious, but there are three elders at home who believe that the two children should not go to the Funeral Home or cemetery, nor should Yuan Xi and Huo Shiyuan see the children after coming back from there. Thus, Yuan Xi had not seen Lele and An An for a full five days.

When Yuan Xi went to embrace Lele, Lele cried extremely aggrievedly in her arms.

Yuan Xi soothed Lele while holding her, "Good Lele, grandpa passed away these days, that’s why mommy didn’t come to hold Lele, be good Lele."

After being soothed by Yuan Xi for a while, Little Lele finally leaned in her arms and laughed softly.

Huo Shiyuan was soothing An An, as it was evidently much easier to console a little boy than a little girl.

"Mama, Ahma"

Hearing the voice of Lele in her arms, Yuan Xi laughed softly, "Lele, can you also call mama now?"

Huo Shiyuan finally showed his first smile in days, "I heard it, Lele called mama."

Yuan Xi spun around holding Lele, "You really are my good Lele, I love you the most."

"Xiao Xi, it’s not good to be so blatantly biased,"

Yuan Xi looked towards An An in Huo Shiyuan’s arms, "I also love An An the most."

Huo Shiyuan said softly, "What about me?"

Yuan Xi helplessly, "I love you the most too."

At the start of September, the school invested in by Mi Chen opened.

Yuan Xi went to Jiang City to participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the school and also took the opportunity to visit Liang Family’s grandparents.

The sudden death of Mr. Huo made Yuan Xi realize that the time one could spend with the elders was indeed very limited, especially now that she was in A City and could only return to Jiang City a few times a year.

This time Yuan Xi visited the Liang Family, she also saw Liang Hao: "Xiao Hao, don’t you have school today?"

Liang Hao said, "Not today, it starts tomorrow. Sister, did you come back alone today? Didn’t your husband come back with you?"

Yuan Xi lightly laughed, "Today I came to Jiang City for the ribbon-cutting, your brother-in-law has been quite busy recently, so I didn’t have him come with me."

Liang Hao said to Yuan Xi, "Sister, there’s something I must tell you."

Yuan Xi asked, "What is it?"

Liang Hao gestured for Yuan Xi to follow him into his room, and Yuan Xi followed Liang Hao inside.

Liang Hao turned on the computer and said, "These are the photos I accidentally took when I went to the ski hall with my classmates during the summer vacation. If I’m not mistaken, this man is Wen Zhuo, Fu Qin’s fiancé, right?"

Yuan Xi watched Liang Hao open the photo album on the computer, and she saw the photos taken by Liang Hao. Indeed, the man was Wen Zhuo, but the girl beside him looked very much like her, yet it wasn’t her.

Yuan Xi had a slight impression of the girl beside Wen Zhuo; she remembered meeting this girl, who looked strikingly like her, at Wen Zhuo’s engagement party—she had a distinctive mole on her eyebrow.

Liang Hao said, "Sister, I saw them being very intimate. They must have been involved. Wen Zhuo doesn’t deserve to be Fu Qin’s fiancé."

Yuan Xi looked at Liang Hao and asked, "Have you told Fu Qin about this?"

Liang Hao replied, "Fu Qin has been avoiding me; I simply have no way to tell her about this."

Yuan Xi said, "Send me the photos."

When Yuan Xi returned to Jiang City, it was already evening, and the two children were clamoring to go out. Huo Shiyuan had just gotten off work, so Yuan Xi and Huo Shiyuan took the two children for a walk.

Yuan Xi said to Huo Shiyuan, "Today, when I went to grandpa’s house, I ran into Xiao Hao."

Huo Shiyuan asked, "Hasn’t Xiao Hao started school yet?"

"School starts tomorrow. It feels like he just took his college entrance exam, and now he’s already a sophomore; time flies so fast."

Huo Shiyuan chuckled, "After all, Lele and An An are already so big."

Yuan Xi said, "Xiao Hao told me that during his summer vacation at the ski field, he encountered Wen Zhuo and his girlfriend, who was not Fu Qin... I think Fu Qin shouldn’t be kept in the dark about this, what do you think?"

After all, both Fu Qin and Wen Zhuo are friends of Huo Shiyuan.

Huo Shiyuan said, "Xiao Xi, as for Fu Qin and Wen Zhuo, they are both well aware that theirs is a business marriage, and they are able to accept each other having their own affairs after marriage."

Yuan Xi slightly furrowed her brows, opened her WeChat chat with Liang Hao, and showed Huo Shiyuan the pictures secretly taken by Liang Hao.

Huo Shiyuan frowned upon seeing the girl who looked like Yuan Xi in the photos.

Yuan Xi said to Huo Shiyuan, "I don’t want your friend’s mistress to look like me."

"Also, I shouldn’t interfere with your freedom to choose friends, but I don’t think you can remain unaffected by friends who each do their own thing."

Huo Shiyuan put his hand on Yuan Xi’s shoulder and said, "Hmm, if my friends cannot have a proper concept of family, then I will gradually reduce my interactions with them."

Yuan Xi smiled at Huo Shiyuan.

After the two returned home, Huo Shiyuan said to Yuan Xi, "I’m going to Wen Zhuo’s place to talk to Wen Zhuo and Fu Qin."

Yuan Xi nodded slightly as she watched Huo Shiyuan leave.

Wen Zhuo’s home was also in Yunsen Court, and it wasn’t far for Huo Shiyuan to walk.

It took Wen Zhuo quite a while to come to the door. As soon as Huo Shiyuan entered, he grabbed Wen Zhuo by the collar, "Wen Zhuo, I always thought we were friends, brothers."

Wen Zhuo looked at Huo Shiyuan and said, "Shiyan? We are indeed friends, brothers."

Huo Shiyuan placed the printed photos in front of Wen Zhuo, "What does this mean with the woman in these photos? Don’t forget that your fiancée is Fu Qin!"

Fu Qin came in from outside and said, "Oh, Shiyan, what are you doing? Did you call me here just to watch you guys fight... " ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

Before Fu Qin could finish speaking, she saw the photos in Huo Shiyuan’s hands, where Wen Zhuo and his girlfriend were very intimate.
