Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband!-Chapter 707 - 708: The Thing I Regret Most Is Falling in Love with You 4
What should I do!
What should I do now?!
If Grandma finds out her jade bracelet is missing, she will definitely be suspicious.
She already gave the bracelet to Ai Feiyun, and if Grandma asks her to wear it, how could she explain without having it?!
"Take good care of it, that jade bracelet is very important to the Huo Family. As Mrs. Huo, protecting the bracelet is your responsibility," Grandma believed her words and reminded her once again.
"I understand, Grandma." Song Yi forced a smile at Grandma, nervously clenching her wrist.
For now, she managed to bluff her way through, but what if Grandma asks again tomorrow?
"Go upstairs to rest, don’t run around since you’re just recovered."
"Alright, Grandma." Song Yi nodded and flashed a relieved smile, relieved to not face Grandma.
After speaking, she anxiously turned and left; the last thing she wanted now was to face Grandma.
After Song Yi left, Grandma’s mood turned heavy as well.
Feeling very tired, she got up and prepared to go upstairs to rest for a while.
Back in her room, Song Yi locked the door and called Ai Feiyun on her phone.
The call was quickly answered, and Ai Feiyun’s cold voice came through.
"What’s the matter?"
"The old lady asked for the jade bracelet, what should I do?"
"Miss Song, do you lack the intelligence to handle even this small issue?" Ai Feiyun mocked.
"You!" Song Yi was furious, but took a deep breath and continued, "You return the bracelet to me so I can temporarily appease Grandma. I will give you both the map and the bracelet afterwards."
"Find the map first, then I’ll return the bracelet to you to temporarily appease the old lady. Don’t make me wait too long!" Ai Feiyun hung up immediately, not wanting to waste more words with Song Yi.
"You..." Song Yi threw her phone on the bed in anger; how was she to know where the map was?
Sitting on the bed, she thought carefully; the map was also something very important to the Huo Family.
Maybe Shaohua is the one keeping it?
She got up, walked to the door, opened it, and went to Huo Shaohua’s study to look for the map.
She searched the study thoroughly but still couldn’t find the map.
Could it be at Grandma’s place?
She would have to wait for Grandma to go out, then sneak into her room to start searching.
She had to find the map as soon as possible, or her situation would be very dangerous.
If Grandma found out, she would be completely finished.
Failing to assist Ai Feiyun, she naturally wouldn’t protect her safety. She had already betrayed Shaohua and the Huo Family; he surely wouldn’t protect her again.
There was no news from He Jun either; wasn’t he very concerned about the child?
Why hadn’t there been any news these days?
――
Huo Shaohua drove to the flower shop, but it was already closed.
He rushed to the residential complex, dashed into the corridor, and pressed the elevator button.
The few seconds of waiting for the elevator felt extremely long, so he took the stairs directly.
He knocked for a while before Tian Xingyun opened the door. Seeing her red, swollen eyes from crying made his heart ache.
"Xingyun, I’m really sorry about today." He reached out to touch her face, but she avoided his hand.
Her eyes were cold, without a trace of anger or the previous resentment.
It made him panic and fearful...
Tian Xingyun stepped out and closed the door, not intending to let him in.
Ignoring his apology, Tian Xingyun spoke in a husky voice, "What do you want now?"
"Where is Tianxin?" Huo Shaohua felt a sudden rush of fear and weakness.
"If there’s nothing else, I’m going back in." She turned around to leave.
Huo Shaohua grabbed her hand, hurriedly explaining, "Today was my fault. I made you worry, I’m sorry."
"Are you done? If so, please leave." Tian Xingyun coldly said with an expressionless face, shaking off his hand.
She didn’t want to see him and wouldn’t let him see their daughter either.
