Chapter 2581 Love and Hurt(1/2)
The next day, Lin Mengya found that Huo Xiao was no longer hiding from her, but his attitude was much more polite than before.
She also asked Wu Ying several times, but unfortunately even Wu Ying didn't know what the trouble was with her eldest brother.
But after seeing the appearance of the wounded, Lin Mengya also understood that Huo Xiao was probably still blaming himself.
Although his condition was getting better day by day, Wang Yan still had a high fever due to wound infection.
"It's been three days. If the fever doesn't go away, will he?"
A series of big bubbles appeared at the corners of Wu Ying's anxious mouth.
Compared to others, he was more worried about Wang Yan.
When the brothers first came to the mountain, if they had not treated each other with the utmost sincerity, they would have died at the hands of the previous head.
Seeing his blood brother dying, he was of course anxious.
"Wait a minute, what will Miss Gong say?"
Huo Xiao also frowned, sitting on his brother's bedside and asked in a low voice.
"Miss Gong said that there are some medicinal materials missing now. She has asked people to search for them urgently. It's up to Dayan to see if she can wait until her people get the medicine back."
Even though Wu Ying and Huo Xiao were anxious, they did not put too much pressure on Lin Mengya.
After all, there are so many wounded people in the entire camp, and they can only survive these days because of her support and treatment.
This is what others want. They can accept it, but they can never ask for it with peace of mind.
When Lin Mengya opened the door with a bowl of medicine, the two people quickly looked at each other, reluctantly suppressed the anxiety in their hearts, and tried to treat her with the most normal attitude.
"Don't worry too much. Wang Yan's physical fitness is good. I think he is very confident that he can survive."
Lin Mengya sighed in her heart.
The two people's brows were almost enough to kill a fly, and they thought they could deceive her.
Huo Xiao rubbed his forehead.
"Hopefully he can live up to our expectations."
After pondering for a moment, he made a very difficult decision in his heart.
"Miss Gong, I want to know what's going on outside. Can you tell me about it?"
Lin Mengya nodded, thinking that he wanted to know the situation of those who ambushed him.
But this time, Huo Xiao proposed to talk to her alone outside.
She helped Huo Xiao to a secluded place outside, and after briefly introducing some of the surrounding towns, she found that Huo Xiao had not actually listened to a word.
"Brother Huo? Brother Huo?"
She waved her hand in front of him, and the latter looked at her as if he had just come back to his senses.
"Are you worried?" she asked kindly.
Huo Xiao shook his head reflexively, but then stiffened for a moment and nodded reluctantly.
"Can I help?"
In fact, if Huo Xiao didn't want her to help, he wouldn't have used such a lame excuse to come out to her.
But for some reason, the man hesitated for a long time and couldn't speak.
Lin Mengya couldn't be urged, so she could only stay silent with him quietly.
Huo Xiao's eyes seemed to drift far away, and seemed to only fall on the camp.
Just when Lin Mengya thought he might not speak today, the man suddenly asked in a hoarse voice, "Can you deliver a letter to me?"
"Send it to where?" she asked doubtfully.
Huo Xiao's hand reached into his arms, and after a long time, he took out a jade pendant.
"Send this to Fang's house."
For a moment, Lin Mengya didn't even know what to say.
This jade pendant is the one that Long Tianyu brought when he came to look for someone.
She originally thought that Huo Xiao might have thrown it away, but unexpectedly, he actually kept it with him.
As Huo Xiao's companion, she is very aware of Huo Xiao's resentment towards his biological mother.
But now, he actually asked her Fang family to give her a jade pendant.
"These are the thoughts your mother left for you, Brother Huo, you don't have to force yourself like this."
But Huo Xiao smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"My dignity is not as important as my brother's life. Besides, after so many years, this thing may have been forgotten long ago."
His tone was full of self-deprecation.
A person who was abandoned by his biological mother. Even when his Huo family was wiped out, that woman never appeared.
He should have given up thinking about the so-called maternal love long ago.
But Lin Mengya said thoughtfully, "Although I don't know the past between you mother and son, I feel that as a mother, she must still be thinking about you. Brother Huo, if you really can't let go, why don't you just go with me?"
Let’s meet her.”
"So what if we meet each other?"
This was the first time that Huo Xiao showed his extremely aggressive side in front of her.
Like a hedgehog with its soft belly injured, it raises its sharp thorns defensively and stabs everyone who comes close indiscriminately.
"She didn't care about me at the beginning. Do you think I really didn't beg her after the Huo family was wiped out?
But what did I see? She was wearing a wedding dress and marrying someone else in a glorious manner!
My father's blood hasn't run cold yet! Is she so impatient? Can't she, can't she wait a little longer?"
By the end, Huo Xiao's voice was choked with sobs.
Red eyes hide endless sadness
and pain.
The pain of being betrayed by his loved ones had long torn his already twisted life apart.
Even before his father died, he was still thinking about the woman who completely abandoned them.
This made him even more unable to forgive that woman, nor could he forgive himself for still being lucky!
"Sorry, I really can't control myself."
After venting his anger, Huo Xiao realized that he had actually vented his anger on others, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty and upset.
But Lin Mengya shook her head gently.
"I understand the pain in your heart."
She picked up the jade pendant that fell on the ground and wiped the dust off it.
"I will help you pass this jade pendant to your mother. As for whether you want to see her or not, it is up to you to decide. However, even if she doesn't help us, I will do my best to save Wang Yan."
"Thank you."
Huo Xiao looked at her with a very complicated mood, but for a long time he could only hold back a word of thanks.
Lin Mengya waved her hand.
"We are friends, friends don't need to be polite."
Huo Xiao lowered his head and thought about her words over and over again while trying to sort out his emotions.
Friends, just friends make him feel greedy.
If the delusion in his heart can be satisfied, can the pain caused by his mother be erased by her?
Lin Mengya seemed a little worried when she met her blind mother-in-law again.
As always, the other party brought two people with him, and they were waiting for her arrival early.
After these interactions, they gradually became familiar with her.
Although they were in a hurry and could not say a few words every time, they were very grateful to Lin Mengya.
But this time, Lin Mengya left without taking anything.
"Blind mother-in-law, do you know the Fang family?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the three people opposite seemed to be startled, and they all froze on the spot.
After a long time, the blind mother-in-law came to her senses, but her tone seemed a little panicked for some reason.
"Fang family? Which Fang family?"
Lin Mengya was even more certain that the blind mother-in-law knew the Fang family.
"How many other prominent families in the Shangxian clan are the Fang family?"
