Knowing Xie Chen’s plan, Shen You no longer hesitated.
Since Xie Chen had her own plans, Shen You also decided to implement her plan.
From the information Zhao Nan provided, Zhao Pu seemed to be brooding over Xie Chen’s matter.
Although Xie Chen was busy with work, Zhao Pu’s matter still had to be resolved.
Shen You and Zhao Nan discussed and decided to let Zhao Pu meet up with Xie Chen as soon as possible.
After tidying herself up that night, Shen You was about to call Zhao Nan to confirm the plan when Huo Xiao’s call came in.
Shen You picked up the phone. “Hello, what’s the matter?”
Huo Xiao heard Shen You’s cold voice. “Why are you so cold? Is there anything you’re unhappy about today?”
Shen You shook her head and then remembered that Huo Xiao couldn’t see her.
“No!” Shen You said into the phone, “I’m just a little tired.”
Huo Xiao said, “Oh, I have something to tell you. Can you come out now?”
“Come out?” Shen You looked at the phone strangely. “You’re at my door now?”
“Yes! You come out now. I want to see you.” Huo Xiao’s voice sounded a little deep.
Shen You thought for a moment and replied, “Okay! Wait for me!”
Shen You put on a coat and rushed out of the door.
When she walked out, Shen You saw Huo Xiao standing at the door.
Seeing that Huo Xiao did not look well, Shen You was a little worried. “Are you okay?”
Huo Xiao shook his head and said, “Shen You, have you ever doubted your background?”
Hearing Huo Xiao’s question, Shen You’s expression changed again and again.
“I came to see you today to confirm whether you care about this matter very much?” Huo Xiao grabbed Shen You’s hand and asked.
Shen You struggled slightly but did not break free. “Then do you mind?”
“No!” Huo Xiao answered without hesitation. “No matter what your background is, as long as you’re Shen You, I like you!”
Hearing Huo Xiao’s words, the corners of Shen You’s mouth curled up slightly. “Good! It’s good to have you say that.”
Shen You’s face looked as if she had been relieved of a heavy burden, but Huo Xiao felt a little sorry for her.
“I want to tell you that you don’t have to investigate it yourself, okay?” Huo Xiao looked at Shen You and said seriously.
Shen You paused for a moment and then said, “Do you know what I want to investigate?”
Huo Xiao hesitated for a moment and then said again, “I think I got to know about some things earlier than you do.”
“But I don’t want these things to affect you.” Huo Xiao held Shen You’s hand tightly.
“Believe me, I will take care of everything, Okay?” Huo Xiao stared at Shen You and waited for Shen You’s answer.
Shen You took a deep breath and said, “Huo Xiao, I want to investigate my background, not to prove anything.”
“I just want to know the whole story. At least I want to know who I am,” Shen You said sincerely.
“I know. The reason you don’t want me to investigate is for my own good. But many things can’t be solved by running away.” Shen You looked at Huo Xiao, her eyes shining.
Huo Xiao knew what Shen You meant. But he felt his heart was aching.
“I hope you will always be happy,” Huo Xiao spoke out his thoughts. “Some things will not change because of your background.”
“I know.” Shen You smiled at Huo Xiao.
“I will always be happy, don’t worry!” Shen You said to Huo Xiao seriously. “I am stronger than you think!”
Shen You’s promise was not just to comfort Huo Xiao.
More importantly, Shen You was giving herself confidence.
She knew that she was no longer the person she once was!
If it was in her previous life, Shen You might have hidden in a corner because of these things and never seen anyone again.
But now, Shen You would no longer run away!
