The space in the car was quiet and small. Even the airflow seemed to have slowed down.

Human senses were also magnified. Si Huan’s fingertips touched the skin on the side of Huo Tian’s face. This was originally an unintentional contact, but it caused a ripple in each other’s hearts, increasing the intimacy in the atmosphere between the two of them.

Si Huan sharply noticed that Huo Tian’s ears were slightly red.

His mood lifted. “I’m very happy today.”

Although Huo Tian sensed that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between the two of them, she didn’t delve deeper into it. She forcefully suppressed the subtle emotions in her heart and instantly returned to the position of being Si Huan’s good friend.

As a good friend, Huo Tian felt that she had to take care of Si Huan’s feelings. She said, “But according to my observation, you don’t seem to be very happy today. Do you also have doubts about my actual relationship with Uncle Xi?”

Si Huan sighed silently. The intimate atmosphere had just gathered for less than a second, but it was instantly dispersed by Huo Tian. Should he not have too much confidence in her EQ?

He did not force the return to the intimate state they were in just now. He followed Huo Tian’s train of thought and said, “According to my understanding of Uncle Xi, he’s not someone who says things without thinking. Since he chose to confess to you, there should be concrete evidence to prove your blood relationship…”

Si Huan paused for a few seconds and continued, “Actually, I just think that Uncle Xi’s attitude towards me has changed too much and I don’t have much confidence in whether I can win his favor in the future.”

Huo Tian didn’t understand it immediately and curiously guessed, “Are you worried that he won’t teach you anymore in the future? I don’t think that will happen. He used to admire you very much.”

At first, Huo Tian did not know what Si Huan meant, but under his gaze, although she did not quite understand, she vaguely knew that it had something to do with her.

Si Huan didn’t let Huo Tian think about it for too long. “Even if Uncle Xi used to like me more, when he found out that I was coveting his treasure, he naturally wouldn’t give me a good attitude.”

Although he didn’t say it explicitly, his eyes were filled with her reflection. No matter how slow Huo Tian was, she managed to react in time.

The redness in the tips of her ears gradually spread to her cheeks. Her gaze flickered and she subconsciously avoided Si Huan’s gaze.

It was only after a long while did Huo Tian feel that her heart rate had returned to normal.

She coughed lightly and whispered, “I should be going home. Mom is waiting for me to go back to eat.”

Si Huan didn’t say anything else and only chuckled. He then continued to be Huo Tian’s personal chauffeur.

No matter when she returned home, Huo Tian would always be able to find her mother, Ding Rong. For any child, as long as their mother was still at home, there would be a harbor in this world that they could stop to rest at ease.

Huo Tian never hid her love for her family. After returning home, she hugged Ding Rong without letting go.

Ding Rong’s face was full of smiles as she let Huo Tian hug her for a long while. Then, she said feigned disdain, “You’re hugging your mother the moment you come back. Are you still a child?”

Huo Tian said plausibly, “Although I’m not a child anymore, Mom owes me 18 years of hugs. Of course I have to get it back with interest.”

Which mother wouldn’t like to be relied on by their children? Of course Ding Rong had no resistance to her daughter’s closeness. She patted Huo Tian’s back gently and complained while feeling sweet inside, “What a childish personality. If others see you like this, they’ll laugh at you.”

Ding Rong glanced at the only outsider in their courtyard, Si Huan. He had sent Huo Tian home and Ding Rong politely invited him to stay for a meal. Si Huan didn’t stand on ceremony and agreed without any hesitation.. At this moment, he was sitting calmly and waiting for the meal to start.
