Chapter 849: Chapter 846: Former Rivals Meet Again

There was little need for words, as everyone understood what it meant.

Moreover, Ye Ranran didn’t believe that Huo’s father was unaware of her presence here.

Knowing that she was coming and still showing up meant only one thing, Xia Qing was more important to him than she was.

Her status in his heart was higher than Ranran’s.

Indeed, clarity dawned in Ye Ranran’s eyes.

In grand households, what’s most lacking is love, and this eternal topic is something that men and women, young and old, tirelessly pursue.

It is also an inescapable curse.

"What are you doing here? Who allowed you to come?" Indeed, upon seeing them, Huo’s father’s face turned iron blue.

His protective demeanor was as if Ye Ranran and Huo’s mother had done something terrible to Xia Qing and her child.

Huo’s mother, even paler than Huo’s father, could not maintain her composure. Even the most collected and serene woman can’t keep her grace when the husband she has loved for years stands beside a rival, opposing her.

Ye Ranran stepped in front of Huo’s mother and spoke before she could, "I heard I have a young uncle outside, so I especially came to see."

"Who told you these things?" Huo’s father asked coolly.

"If you don’t want people to know, you shouldn’t have done it in the first place. Dad, if you’ve done it, why fear admitting it?" She would only look down on him otherwise.

Huo’s father finally looked at his daughter-in-law properly. Jun Mochan married Ye Ranran without his opposition, but also without his consent.

Children and grandchildren have their own fortune. He had no choice left, and he didn’t want Jun Mochan to follow in his footsteps, but he didn’t allow Jun Mochan to marry her to oppose him.

"This has nothing to do with you, don’t be nosy," Huo’s father scolded.

Ye Ranran looked at her own hands, head slightly bowed. Standing with her back to the light, she was shrouded in darkness, her expression unclear, but her voice carried a chill, "Parents’ issues, I shouldn’t interfere naturally. But, Mom and I meant no harm, and Dad, you scolded us without getting the facts first. Isn’t that a bit too much?"

"No malice? By the looks of you, you don’t seem well-meaning either," Huo’s father snorted coldly.

"Huo Bocheng, what do you mean by that? What have I done to her? Have I abused her or tortured her?" Huo’s mother exploded.

"Ah Yi is still in the hospital, you don’t care, but you’re intimate with this cheap woman, talking about being busy with work, are you busy with women perhaps?" Huo’s mother didn’t mince her words, hitting Huo’s father where it hurt.

Ye Ranran felt a headache coming on and consciously moved to the side.

Indeed, after Huo’s mother’s crying and fussing, all blame fell on Huo’s father.

Huo’s father, unable to bear the harassment, directly kicked both of them out of the door.

Huo’s mother’s hair was disheveled, her clothes in disarray, clearly indicating that the recent fight had not favored her.

Before Ranran could speak, the car window was knocked on. Lowering the window, she saw a beautiful face she had not seen for a long time: Xia Shi.

Her makeup was exquisite, her face charming, and her eyes lively. She seemed to be doing well, nothing like the despondent state Ranran had imagined.

"How does it feel? Disappointed?" Xia Shi adjusted her hair.

One can’t show weakness in front of a love rival. Ranran curved her lips slightly, "Why would I be disappointed? No matter how well you live, to others, it’s just a gloss over reality."

Xia Shi, unusually calm, looked at Ye Ranran peacefully, "You really are at peace, aren’t you? I’m just afraid your good days are about to end."

Ye Ranran’s gaze drifted into the distance, without answering Xia Shi.
