"Really?" Huo Beijiang asked, still somewhat unsure.
He knew that his wife had a sense of pride and perseverance typical of intellectuals. It wasn't easy for her to give up that pride. He figured only her cousin could achieve that. The thought made him feel like he had been thrust into a sea of jealousy.
He was absolutely livid.
"Really. Don't worry, I can take care of myself."
"Alright!" For now, he decided to agree.
"But..." Huo Beijiang gathered himself and said firmly, "You should move in with me! You can't stay here."
"What would it look like if I moved in with you? What would people say? Plus, I don't want to get dragged into the mess at your house." Intuition told her that the waters in the Huo Family ran deep. From the fact that Granny Huo hadn't sought her out once, she knew there must be some issues. Otherwise, Zhou Yongxian would have spoken to her.
