Crossing the Passenger Sacrifice

Chapter 240

Except for Lao Wu, no one present was surprised by Sang Fuqing's words.

The eldest brother said this because Sang Fuqing had already told him once when he came today, and the eldest sister-in-law had a filter for Li Huoyue. She felt that Huohuo was so outstanding that it was normal for him to be given an official title.

For a moment, except for Lao Wu who chattered and sighed, no one present reacted much.

The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, gradually approaching a downpour. There was a brief calm in the room, with only the empty sound of the night rain hitting Kyoto.

The second brother is still in the carriage.

The carriage stopped beside Suyun Bridge. The dark river water flowed under the bridge. The heavy rain forced him to enter the carriage, and the small lamp hanging in front of the carriage was also pulled in, trembling and still maintaining a little light.

But after all, he had never called out like that in person. As soon as he said it, Sang Fuqing himself was stunned. Others present also found it a bit abrupt and looked at him in surprise.

The eldest sister-in-law even threw a handful of melon seeds over, as if she was throwing a hidden weapon, and Sang Fuqing was so scared that his face turned pale.

Li Huoyue always thought this person was weird. When they first met, he had just boasted that he and Xu Jiaoer would be "a couple for life". But when he saw her later, the look in his eyes was as if Li Huoyue had transformed into his beloved deceased wife who had returned. This made Li Huoyue feel uncomfortable at the time, and now he did this again. But he had never said that in person. When he said it, Sang Fuqing himself was stunned. Others at the scene also felt that it was a bit abrupt and looked at him in surprise.

Li Huoyue always thought that this person was weird. When they first met, he clearly boasted that he and Xu Jiaoer would be "a couple for life", but when he saw her later, the look in his eyes was as if Li Huoyue had turned into his beloved deceased wife who had returned. Li Huoyue felt uncomfortable at the time, and now he did this again.

When he returned to the Li Mansion, Li Huoyue found that the lights were on in his courtyard.

Except for the secret guards left by my mother and the servants who clean the courtyard, there is usually no one else left in the courtyard.

As for those at home, they would basically go to the fourth child's study to wait instead of running directly to her yard.

Li Huoyue felt strange and seeing that the secret guard didn't react at all, he didn't climb over the wall first. Instead, he picked two leaves and walked straight in.

After walking across a pretentious little bridge, you can see the door to the main hall on the first floor, which has hardly been used, open. Lao Wu is sitting on the doorstep, bored, waving a piece of cloth in his hand and playing with it.

There were a few people sitting inside the door, but they were blocked by the door frame, so I could only see a rough outline.

"You're finally back!" Lao Wu was sitting at the door and was the first to notice Li Huoyue walking towards Mingtang. He felt that Li Huoyue's eyes were much brighter.

Li Huoyue loosened his grip on the leaves, calmed down, and asked, "What are you doing to me?"

The people in the house also heard the noise. The eldest sister-in-law was the first to react. She jumped out and explained what happened. "It was Sang who came to see your eldest brother. He said he had something important to tell you."

Li Huoyue was stunned for a moment and asked curiously, "You have something to tell me, and then you run to find my eldest brother?"

The three of them walked into the house. Sang Fuqing was indeed sitting in the guest seat. After hearing what Li Huoyue said, he stood up and saluted, and explained with a little self-mockery: "I came directly to you, you definitely don't want to meet me."

Li Huoyue looked at Sang Fuqing more because of this sentence.

This kid is right. If Sang Fuqing really came alone, Li Huoyue might really avoid him.

Sang Fuqing looked stupid before. Has he finally woken up after what happened today?

The eldest brother was also in the Mingtang, sitting in the guest seat with Sang Fuqing.

The eldest sister-in-law sat down at the main seat without any hesitation and asked Li Huoyue for some snacks. "Huohuo, your courtyard is too deserted. I don't even see a maid or a servant. The tea I got was brought from my own courtyard! Now that you're back, shouldn't you give me some compensation?"

Li Huoyue smiled helplessly, took out a bag of melon seeds and a bag of candied candies from the drawer, pushed them in front of his sister-in-law, and then sat down.

The smile on his face faded, and he glanced at Sang Fuqing casually and asked, "Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Facing Sang Fuqing, Li Huoyue naturally did not have a good expression.

The gap between the before and after was too huge. Before Sang Fuqing could get over Li Huoyue's smile, he was frightened by Li Huoyue's indifferent glance.

He pretended to drink a sip of tea and said, "Miss Li, I know you want to cancel the engagement."

Li Huoyue frowned slightly when he heard this.

What was this important matter? Was it worth traveling all the way to Li's residence at night?

I've told you not to drink tea late at night, it'll damage your brain!

When he returned to the Li Mansion, Li Huoyue found that the lights were on in his courtyard.
