After a few bottles of wine, Xiao Ming couldn’t resist the spiciness of the wine. He was clearly drunk and his face was red. He looked at Huo Xiaoran in confusion. “Why aren’t you drunk yet?”
In front of him, Huo Xiaoran performed his magic trick to Xiao Ming. It turned out that when he unscrewed the cap of the bottle, there was a pill that neutralized the alcohol.
Xiao Ming stood up shakily and pointed at Huo Xiaoran. “Everyone says that you’re upright and honest. In my opinion, you’re really a wolf in sheep’s clothing.”
Huo Xiaoran reached out and pressed his shoulder, pressing him to the seat. He smiled and said, “Cousin, you’re drunk.”
Xiao Ming looked at him warily. “Xiaoran, what do you want to do after going through so much trouble?”
Huo Xiaoran’s slender fingers reached for his head, and he looked at Xiao Ming with a faint and innocent smile. Suddenly, Xiao Ming felt a sharp pain in his scalp and realized that Huo Xiaoran was pulling his hair. Xiao Ming’s expression suddenly changed.
He roughly realized Huo Xiaoran’s intentions and casually grabbed Huo Xiaoran’s hand.
Huo Xiaoran had a strand of hair between his fingertips. Xiao Ming restrained his hand and smiled evilly. “Xiaoran, do you have a fetish for hair? Why are you taking my hair?”
Huo Xiaoran glanced out of the landing window and saw Joey and Angel Qiao playing happily. Huo Xiaoran looked at Xiao Ming meaningfully. “I just want to know what Cousin has to do with them.”
Xiao Ming rolled his eyes and let go of Huo Xiaoran’s hand. He laughed and said, “Are you suspecting that Qiao An and I were secretly dating?”
Xiao Ming generously pulled a few strands of hair and handed them to Huo Xiaoran. Not only that, he strode outside, pulled strands of hair from Angel Qiao and Joey and strode into the house.
Only where no one could see him, he’d done something to the hair.
After returning to Huo Xiaoran, he handed the hair to him. “Take it.”
Huo Xiaoran saw his open and aboveboard appearance and immediately felt a little embarrassed.
Despite his embarrassment, he took the hair and carefully kept it.
Xiao Ming glanced at Huo Zhou coldly and said with jealousy, “Sure, Huo Zhou, we’ve been brothers since we were young. You actually betrayed me for him?”
Huo Zhou could only smile apologetically.
Huo Xiaoran retorted on his behalf, “Huo Zhou has a life-and-death relationship with me.”
While the two men were arguing, Angel Qiao suddenly cried.
Before Xiao Ming and Huo Zhou could recover, they saw Huo Xiaoran slip out.
“Third Sister.” He knelt in front of Angel Qiao and asked with concern, “What’s wrong?”
“Uncle, Sister hit me.” Angel Qiao pointed at Joey. Bean-sized tears trickled from the corners of his eyes. He felt sorry for me.
Joey put her hands on her hips and scolded her sister. “How many times have I told you not to touch Buggy? Mommy said Buggy was poisonous. Why didn’t you listen? Why didn’t you listen?”
“That worm is cute. It’s not poisonous. Touchable,” Angel Joe cried.
Huo Xiaoran was dumbfounded.
The argument between the sisters was too shocking. He actually didn’t know how to comfort the two children, let alone how to resolve this conflict.
Xiao Ming walked out. He had quickly chosen a camp. He supported Joey. “Third Sister, Buggy is crawling on the ground. He’s covered in dust. He’s so dirty. You better not touch Buggy in the future.”
Huo Xiaoran looked at Xiao Ming indignantly. “Pigs run on the ground and fish swim in the water. There are bacteria everywhere. Don’t eat them in the future.”
Xiao Ming frowned. “Xiaoran, I’m just helping the child mediate. Don’t be unreasonable.”
Huo Xiaoran said, “You’re siding with Joey and driving a wedge between them.”
Xiao Ming suddenly fell silent. Then, his tone weakened. “Then come. What do you think we should do?”
Huo Xiaoran picked up a cicada and inserted a branch into its mouth. The cicada bit the branch and quickly ate.
The two adorable children watched with relish.
Then, Huo Xiaoran inserted a small branch into its mouth and its wings quickly fluttered.
“Wow, Uncle Huo is so awesome.” Angel Qiao was so excited that she kept clapping. Her admiration for Huo Xiaoran was obvious.
Joey suddenly hugged Huo Xiaoran and kissed his face. Then, he said, “I want Uncle Huo to be our daddy.”
Xiao Ming’s expression was a little sad. However, when he saw Huo Xiaoran’s gentle appearance, his expression quickly lit up again.
Huo Xiaoran looked at the two children gently. “Would you like me to be your daddy?”
“Yes.” Both children nodded eagerly.
Xiao Ran rubbed them into her arms and said excitedly, “Okay. Uncle will discuss with your mommy later and accept you as daughters.”
“Yay,” the kids cheered.
On the other hand, it was rare for Qiao An to be free of the children and obtain a moment of leisure. But she was very unhappy today.
Huo Xiaoran and Lu Mo’s wedding approached. It was as if her heart had been hollowed out, making her feel that she had lost her soul and life. Her future seemed to be in a daze.
Seeing her listless appearance, Xiao Yue pulled her up and pressed her to the dressing table. Then, she put on exquisite makeup for her very seriously. She even suggested for the first time, “Sister Qiao An, it’s Cousin’s loss to give up on you. Today, I’ll dress you up beautifully and we’ll go on a blind date.”
“A blind date?” Qiao An was confused. “Did you break up with Qiao He?”
Xiao Yue stretched out a finger and shook it. She said mysteriously, “It’s not for me, but only for you.”
Qiao An jumped up in shock. “Are you crazy? Why would I go on a blind date? I was married and had a child. What man would take a fancy to me?”
Xiao Yue suddenly felt sad. “Sister Qiao An, don’t belittle yourself.”
“I’m not belittling myself.” Although Qiao An said it casually, her eyes were filled with sadness. “Even your cousin, Huo Xiaoran, doesn’t want me anymore. Who in this world can ignore my past?
“Sister Qiao An…” Xiao Yue choked.” Cousin definitely doesn’t really want to marry Lu Mo. Trust me. Why don’t you go on a blind date and test him? ”
Test him?
Qiao An wavered slightly.
Then she nodded almost imperceptibly.
Soon she was dressed up, wearing a gorgeous dress and brilliant jewelry. Her hair was in a bun, and her side-parted bangs made her look as beautiful as a fairy.
In order to complement her, Xiao Yue also dressed up carefully.
