"Chuyi's mother has been in poor health ever since Chuyi's father died," Uncle Xia said. "So, she hasn't really done much around the house." "However, with the military pension, life has been manageable."
"Chief Ou, you need not worry. After Chuyi marries Huo Commander, Chuyi's mother will still live in Ling County and won't disturb the young couple." Uncle Xia treated Ou Jun as if he were someone sent by the Huo family to gather information, speaking to him earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Ou Jun was slightly taken aback.
How did the conversation suddenly turn to marriage... and calling them a young couple?
"Uncle, you've misunderstood me!" Ou Jun hurriedly explained, "That's not what I mean..."
Although he had come under the pretense of Huo Shiqian's name, he had no intention of urging marriage.
Absolutely not.
Before Ou Jun could finish, Uncle Xia waved his hand and said, "Chief Ou, you don't need to explain, I understand."
