Chapter 593: Another Cousin?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
This time, with the strength of two people, Murong Qiao and the other servant could finally move slowly with Shen Xi.
For the sake of the other party’s health and the fact that Su Rong was also looking for her daughter, Murong Qiao couldn’t leave Shen Xi here.
However, everything seemed to have gone smoothly after finding Shen Xi.
It was a long journey from the kitchen to the hall. Before the two of them were halfway there, they encountered someone who helped them.
“What happened to Shen Xi?” The other party seemed to know Shen Xi.
Murong Qiao quickly explained the situation. “I’m not sure how her health is now.”
“I’ll take over.” The man took Shen Xi over without another word. As he carried her, he glanced at Murong Qiao and frowned in thought.
Murong Qiao was worried about Shen Xi’s safety and didn’t notice this detail.
The news of Shen Xi being found was quickly sent to Su Rong. After knowing that her daughter had an asthma attack, Su Rong directly placed her in an empty room on the second floor and found a family doctor to take a look at the situation.
Seeing Shen Xi placed on the bed with the family doctor and instruments beside her, Murong Qiao finally heaved a sigh of relief.
“I really have to thank you for today. If you hadn’t found Xiao Xi…” Su Rong took a deep breath.
Asthma did not look serious, but once it acted up and was not treated in time… Su Rong didn’t dare to imagine the consequences.
Fortunately, it didn’t happen.
The family doctor had also finished his examination. “Madam, don’t worry. The Eldest Miss’s condition is stable after inhaling the medicine. She just needs to rest a little now.
It’s mainly because she was under a lot of mental pressure when she was trapped. As the trigger for asthma, if you’re worried, I’ll find some calming medicine for the Eldest Miss to take.”
When Su Rong heard the family doctor’s words, she finally relaxed.
She turned to look at Murong Qiao. “I still have to thank you.”
“By the way, there’s also Tang Huai. Thank you for your help today.” Su Rong turned around and said to the man who had carried Shen Xi back.
Tang Huai didn’t say anything and waved his hand in response. His movements were very casual, but his beautiful peach blossom eyes stared at Murong Qiao thoughtfully.
“I didn’t help much.” Murong Qiao shook her head.
At most, she had only found the person. Fortunately, the servant had medicine for asthma with him. Later on, someone helped bring Shen Xi over, so it didn’t delay her treatment.
After Su Rong thanked the other two, she couldn’t help but worry and went to the room to check on her daughter.
For a moment, only Murong Qiao and Tang Huai were left outside.
It was only now that she knew that Shen Xi was fine that Murong Qiao finally relaxed and turned to look at him.
His short hair, which was dyed silver, was wanton and flamboyant. At such an important occasion like the charity auction today, even if he was wearing a casual suit, it was difficult to hide the unruly aura on his body. He leaned lazily against the wall and looked over. He didn’t look proper, but his figure was very refined and eye-catching. One look and one could tell that he was strong.
He was probably the kind of handsome ruffian that girls would be tempted by. “You’re Murong Qiao?” Tang Huai raised his chin at her.
Murong Qiao raised her eyebrows. “Yes.”
After receiving an answer, Tang Huai sized her up for a long time before answering, “Tsk, why do you look so obedient?”
Hearing this, Murong Qiao frowned in confusion, not understanding why Tang Huai would suddenly say this.
“No wonder Xian Yu always bragged about you to me. It seems like he’s not purely bragging.” Tang Huai didn’t keep her in suspense.
After he finished speaking, he explained to Murong Qiao.
Tang Huai forced himself to be serious for a moment. “It’s not too late to get to know each other now. My name is Tang Huai. According to seniority, I should be your Elder Brother.”
“Brother?” Murong Qiao felt a question mark appear above her head.
She searched her memories but couldn’t find anyone who matched Tang Huai.
“The Tang Family and the Murong Family are related by marriage. In my generation, the bloodline isn’t that strong,” Tang Huai explained patiently.
Tang Huai was also here on behalf of the Tang Family. He knew that Murong Chen had brought Murong Qiao here this time, so he wanted to take a look at the auction.
However, before meeting Murong Qiao, Tang Huai didn’t expect this Little Sister to be so obedient.
Murong Qiao still had something to say about this brother who suddenly appeared, but before she could speak to Tang Huai, the sound of the auction about to begin sounded.
Just now, they were looking for Shen Xi. Su Rong had stalled the auction for a while. Now that Shen Xi had been found, if the auction started later, it would probably delay everyone’s time.
“Looks like we won’t have the chance to know each other more.” Tang Huai chuckled. “See you another day.”
With that, he left without hesitation. With his back facing Murong Qiao, he waved his hand as a farewell.
When Murong Qiao saw how casual the other party was, she couldn’t help but think that he was nothing like a Big Brother.
At the thought of Big Brother, Second Brother, and Third Brother’s calm figures, no matter how bad they were, they were still very reliable like Yan Xiu and Xian Yu. This was the first time she had seen someone like Tang Huai.
Before Murong Qiao could think further, she had to find Murong Chen before the auction started.
When the two of them met and sat in the front row of the auction, it was already five minutes later. Murong Qiao also told Murong Chen about Shen Xi. “It’s good that you found her, but you can call me the next time something like this happens.” Murong Chen patted Murong Qiao’s head.
He had been talking to the others just now and didn’t know that such a huge thing had happened on his Little Sister’s side.
Murong Qiao blushed at the reminder. “Ahem, I was too anxious just now and forgot.”
At that time, she was frightened by Shen Xi’s state. She only wanted to save her and didn’t remember anything else.
“It’s fine.” Murong Chen shook her head. It was fine as long as nothing happened to Murong Qiao.
However, Murong Qiao belatedly thought of Tang Huai and couldn’t help but ask.
“Big Brother, when I saved Shen Xi just now, I met a person called Tang Huai. He said that he’s my brother?”
Murong Qiao looked at Murong Chen in confusion.
Murong Chen nodded very naturally. “According to seniority, he does count.” “However…” He seemed to have thought of something and suddenly chuckled.” Tang Huai is quite an odd person.”
“Why do you say that?” Murong Qiao asked.
The two of them sat below the stage and chatted softly. The auction officially began. As the emcee introduced the items, they began to introduce the auction items one by one.
“The Tang family is a political family. They’ve had the same style for generations, but only when it comes to Tang Huai…”
Towards the end, Murong Chen paused hesitantly and spoke again.
“He’s a racer.”
Hearing this profession that was not related to political law, Murong Qiao’s mind successfully went blank for a second.
A racer?
The appearance of this word instantly outlined the passionate, nervous, and exciting competition venue in her mind. The speed of cars instantly flashed past her eyes and she recalled how he looked when she saw Tang Huai just now.
No wonder he looked so wanton.
“What’s Qiaoqiao’s impression of Tang Huai?” After Murong Chen introduced him, he changed the topic to the two of them meeting.
Murong Qiao thought for a moment. “…He’s quite unconventional.”
Thinking that the other party would choose a career as a racer after growing up in a politics and law environment, Murong Qiao admired his choice.
However, as for this new Big Brother, Murong Qiao didn’t feel much..
