Over the next few days, Huo Xiyao's mood remained relatively stable.
It was clear that he wasn't continually disappointed that Xia Chu hadn't conceived this time;
he indeed seemed to be trying to put his hatred aside, preventing it from excessively affecting his and others' normal life and work.
Xia Chu saw this and guessed that the incident when the old man fainted vomiting blood in front of him must have relieved some of his anger, which played no small part.
To be honest, she felt relieved as well.
The old man had only started vomiting blood and suffering now, while his mother-in-law had suffered all her life and died young. He was already getting off easy.
But Xia Chu still took advantage of the weekend, calling over Han Ye, Lu Yiming, Huo Sijia, and the Jiang Ziyao couple.
Everyone went out to sea together—barbecue, fine wine, gourmet food, singing karaoke, playing cards. Everything that could be arranged was arranged.
All to make Huo Xiyao happy.
