Chapter 137: Deep Sibling Love

and position, one would assume he held the rank of Special Grade.Seldom attending events with a female companion, Huo Chenxi hadn't paid attention to the invitation level. Hearing him say this, his fa...Pavilions, platforms, and arbors, with a small bridge and flowing water.

Su He followed Huo Chenyi into the old Huo family mansion. Looking at the familiar scenery, she felt a myriad of emotions in her heart.

She still remembered, the first time she followed Grandma Huo home, seeing a scene that she didn't even dare to imagine in her dreams. She was completely stunned, and she didn't know which foot to take when walking.

After she married Huo Chenxi, she no longer lived here.

However, every week Huo Chen Xi would bring her back to accompany Grandma Huo for meals until Grandma Huo became seriously ill.

To my surprise, she actually came back here with Huo Chenyi this time.

The old Huo family home.

Shen Zhimo is quite good at hiding.

Su He followed Huo Chenyi, walking for nearly half an hour before finally reaching the innermost courtyard.

The courtyard is paved with bluestone bricks, featuring black tiles and white walls. Ancient pines stand tall and imposing, giving off an air of mystery and antiquity.

Su He frowned and asked Huo Chenyi, "You actually live here"

This yard is Grandma and Grandpa Huo's room.

After grandpa fell ill, Huo Chenxi was afraid that Grandma Huo would be heartbroken upon seeing him, so he spent a lot of effort persuading Grandma Huo to move to the front courtyard.

And this courtyard has remained empty ever since.

Now, letting a stranger move in!

The Di Jin Group was in disarray, and even their own home had been taken over by squatters.

Everything that Granny Huo and Huo Chen Xi once worked hard to protect, fell into Huo Chen Yi's hands, resulting in this state

Su He's heart felt inexplicably tight, and her tone when speaking to Huo Chenyi wasn't as pleasant.

Huo Chenyi's face paled slightly, his lips moved, but in the end, he didn't say anything.

He stood at the door and gave Su He a deep look: “I’ll just send you here, you go in by yourself!”

Su He sighed, watching Huo Chenyi leave with his head hung low. For a moment, she didn't know whether to be annoyed by his lack of spirit or to blame herself for meddling.

Before coming over, Shen Zhimo instructed Huo Chenyi to have Su He come alone.

Looking at the empty and lifeless courtyard, Su He raised his foot and stepped over the high threshold, walking towards the center of the courtyard.

Finally arrived at the inner courtyard.

There was a man in a sky-blue robe, holding a paper folding fan in his hand. He stood facing away from the door, under an ancient pine tree with twisting branches, looking up as if observing something beyond the viewer.

Hearing footsteps, he slowly turned around, revealing a face that was strikingly similar to Shen Zhaolin's.

Su He and her five brothers inherited more of Gu Qingcheng's stunning features, each with three-dimensional and deep facial features.

But the man before him, who looked to be in his thirties, had relatively soft facial lines and delicate features. He gave off an air of ancient grace and refinement, like a scholar from a bygone era.

Such a man, would actually be Shen Zhimo hiding behind people, plotting and scheming.

"Are you Su He's younger sister" Shen Zhimo's voice was also a pleasant baritone, warm as the wind, "I didn't expect that our first meeting would be here."

Su He returned a polite smile: "I didn't expect that the first time I met the Shen family, it would be so awkward."

Hearing Su He's sarcasm, Shen Zhimo didn't care. He raised his folding fan to his lips and smiled softly twice.

"I don't have my uncle's abilities. Since I came to City A, I could only live with others." Shen Rumo said calmly, "I heard that Miss Su He also lived here for a while, and I want to come here to meet her. You wouldn't find it strange, would you"

Su He mian didn't change her expression or heartbeat: "Actually, I spent more time living in the countryside. Unfortunately, your cousin probably isn't used to it."

In just a few words, the two had already engaged in several silent moves.

Shen Ruimo looked at Su He, who had come alone. He was so angry that he wanted to strangle her, but he had to maintain a polite facade.

Su He also disliked Shen Ruimo at first sight.

The weather is still cold in early spring. What's he trying to do by carrying a fan, pretending to be cultured

Shen Ru Mo invited Su He into the living room and spontaneously sat down on the main seat.

Su He looked at the seat that used to belong to Grandma Huo, forcing back the urge to kick him off. He curled his lips into a smile and said, "Brother, it seems you really like this place. You've truly made it your home!"

Shen Ruimo caught the undercurrent in her voice and, surprisingly, remained calm. "City A is indeed a good place. It's no wonder that your uncle and the rest of you have been reluctant to leave for all these years."

Su He said, "Right If it wasn't for something happening on my grandfather's side, my parents and brother wouldn't want to return to the Imperial Capital. After all, the air here is fresh and makes people feel relaxed."

Shen Ru Mo's smile gradually receded, his gaze fixed deeply on Su He, his eyes complex.

He had heard that his second uncle, Shen Zhaolin, had entrusted the hard-earned Yiheng Group to Su He, who was only in his twenties. It was simply a desperate act when one is sick.

After arriving in City A, he realized that Su He, despite her young age, was very decisive and capable, far exceeding those of the same age.

Even he and Shen Xiaoli were caught off guard and suffered a few losses at her hands.

Now that he finally met Su He, he didn't expect her to be even more difficult than he imagined.

She smiled, delivering each sentence with an air of nonchalance.

But each sentence is a double entendre, isn't it a mockery of him and the Shen family

He said a word, and she politely but not ungraciously retorted.

Shen Ru Mo knew her implication, but he couldn't refute her on the spot.

After circling around for a while, Shen Rumo finally couldn't help himself and spoke: "Su He sister, I wonder what brings you to see me"

Su He blinked, "I came to see my cousin, not because coincidentally my cousin also wanted to find me"

"Seeing Su He continue to play dumb, Shen Zhimo's gentle facade was almost cracking. He endured and endured, but finally couldn't help himself, "Your second uncle was taken away, but you sent someone to do it"

Su He looked at Shen Ruomo with a sweet smile and nodded lightly: "The two cousins have been in City A for so long, as a younger sister, I should have come to see you earlier. Especially the second cousin, I heard he was quite seriously ill, so I was anxious, and sent someone to take him away and send him to the hospital for a full check-up!"

Shen Xiaoli was seriously ill and had been arranged to recuperate in a villa on the outskirts of town.

This is the news Shen Rumo sent back to the imperial capital.

Unexpectedly, Su He actually used this reason to openly take people away from here.

Shen Ruimo took a deep breath, his eyes darkening: "Sister Su He, what do you really want"

Su He seemed not to notice the intense killing intent in Shen Ruimo's eyes, and said softly: "I just want my second cousin-brother to recover from his injuries as soon as possible. What else could I possibly think"

She is just taking advantage of the fact that Shen Rumuo doesn't dare to really take her seriously.

The bodyguard saw her walk into the Huo family with his own eyes, and Huo Chenyi saw her walk into the courtyard with his own eyes.

If Shen Ru Mo really dared to lay a hand on her, not to mention her parents in the capital city, even her five brothers wouldn't let him off easily.

Having always been cautious, Shen Rumo would not do something that left room for others to take advantage.

"Our sibling bond is deep, big brother, you understand me, right" Su He lifted her chin and smiled at Shen Ruimo.

The warm sunlight of early spring fell on her fair, smooth face, making even the fine hairs on her cheeks visible.

Though he had such a clean and beautiful face, Shen Rumo felt an urge to tear it apart., you're calling me a thief. If you can't produce evidence, I can sue you for defamation." 。Su He stared at He Suwen, reminding her expressionlessly. 。A powerful oppression came face to face, He Suwe...
