Xia Xingyu had been in a much better mood than before, ever since he had taught those two a lesson in the harbor.

"Starlight, did something good happen to you? "You have been beaming every day, and those who don't know it might think you've won the lottery!"

Zhang Meng blinked as she looked at her. She felt that the recent Xia Xingyu was a bit different from the past.

Xia Xingyu looked at Zhang Meng with a puzzled expression and then touched her face.

"Filled with radiance? Is there? "

"Too much!" Zhang Meng's serious look made Xia Xingyu's lips twitch.

She did feel a pang in her heart, but it shouldn't be so obvious.

At this moment, Pei Zi Yun walked in. He was obviously looking for Zhang Meng.

However, after he pulled Zhang Meng away, he stuck his head in again and said, "That Mr. Huo is looking for you on the first floor."

Xia Xingyu could not help but frown. Why would Huo Chen come to find him? Could it be about Xia Ying?

After hesitating for a while, she finally got on the elevator and headed to the first floor.

"Miss Xia is really something. I didn't expect her to make me wait here foolishly for two hours." Naturally, Xia Xingyu could tell that Huo Chen's words were meant to tease him.

However … Why did Pei Zong have to tell him so late?

Xia Xingyu thought for a while, but didn't find any clues, so she stopped thinking about it. She raised her head and met Huo Chen's gaze, and then asked: "I wonder why Mr. Huo is looking for me today?"

Huo Chen found her courteous attitude very interesting. After seeing the bloody and brutal side of Xia Xing, and seeing her like this, he felt that the contrast between the two sides was too great.

Huo Chen stared at her for a few seconds before replying, "There's something I need Miss Xia's help with. I wonder if you have the time right now?"

He was also shocked by Shen Peian's agreement, otherwise he would not have had such an opportunity to see the light of day.

"What can I do to help you?"

Xia Xingyu frowned slightly. She had never interacted with Huo Chen before, not even in business. She really didn't know how to help him.

Except... Xia Ying.

Thinking of this, Xia Xinyu suddenly realized something and chuckled.

"I think I've guessed it. Young Master Huo, tell me, is there something wrong with Xia Ying that's making it inconvenient for you?"

Xia Xingyu was an extremely intelligent woman, after she said this, Huo Chen also laughed.

"Nothing can be hidden from Miss Xia's eyes. Since you've guessed it, come with me. I've already informed Pei An about this matter."

Huo Chen originally planned to not trouble Xia Xingyu with this matter, but Xia Ying begged him to see Xia Xingyu again, so he willingly beat the kid up.

After all, she was a woman who had once fallen in love. Huo Chen had still left some face for her.

After about half an hour from the Imperial Group, they arrived at the villa complex. The place where Huo Chen was staying was not far from the Shen family's villa.

Arriving at the Huo Family's basement, before even entering, Xia Xingyu had already heard the sound of Xia Ying's weeping.

The mournful wail had a tinge of horror in it. If he didn't know who was locked up inside, Xia Xingyu really would have thought that she was here to catch a ghost.

"Don't cry."

Fu Guoqian roared at Xia Ying in annoyance, but he seemed to have recovered quite well from his tone.

Xia Xingyu and Huo Chen walked in, followed by a few bodyguards.

The moment their shoes landed on the basement floor, Fu Guoqian and Xia Ying immediately quietened down.

The two of them nervously listened to the footsteps getting closer and closer. Their hearts were especially uneasy.

"You're finally here."

When Xia Ying saw that the person who came was Xia Xingyu, his unbearably ugly face squeezed out a trace of a comical yet proud ridicule.

Xia Xingyu looked around and found that there were at least ten people locked in here. Each of them had their own space, but there were no walls; they were all separated by fences, like a private prison.

"Speak, why did you call me here?" At this moment, when Xia Xingyu saw this woman, he felt very satisfied.

This prison was similar to the ancient era's prison, making it impossible for her to hide her privacy. Her daily meal in the prison was actually going on under the gazes of the people around her. It was truly pitiful and lamentable.

"Of course it's important." As Xia Ying said this, he glanced at Huo Chen expressionlessly. He was clearly trying to get him to move away.

However, since Huo Chen had come, there was no reason for him to leave.

"Is there anything I can't hear?"

Huo Chen shot a cold glance at Xia Ying. The latter couldn't help but shiver in spite of his sinister and threatening gaze.

"This is my sister and my privacy, I hope Young Master Huo can avoid it for a while."

When Xia Ying said these words, his aura clearly weakened. She dared to act arrogantly in front of Xia Xingyu, but she didn't dare to anger Huo Chen.

"So you want to talk alone?"

Huo Chen looked at Fu Guoqian in the opposite cage, as well as the gazes from all around at Xia Ying. His cold lips curled up as if he had a good idea in his heart.

Xia Ying nodded slightly. When he saw Huo Chen's gaze, he felt that something bad was about to happen.

As expected, Huo Chen coldly snorted. He then turned to Xia Xingyu and said, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have disturbed you. There's a better way for her to cooperate with me."

Xia Xingyu raised her eyebrows, indicating that she was somewhat puzzled.

Before she could say anything, Huo Chen had already whispered something to a bodyguard behind her.

The bodyguard went out and returned a moment later with a small bottle of medicine.

"Open this door and feed it to him!"

Huo Chen was referring to a traitor that he had locked up for two years. After discovering his identity, this person had repeatedly tried to report him to the boss.

As such, Huo Chen casually framed him and brought him here. Two years of abstinence must be hard to bear.

Xia Ying thought to himself, "Not good. Huo Chen is definitely after me this time."

However, even though she knew that the next step was the abyss, she didn't have any way to stop this man.

"Mr. Huo, you …"

Xia Xingyu also saw what he meant and could not help but be secretly apprehensive. A man who had hardened his heart was indeed quite deranged.

Only then did Huo Chen notice that the Xia Xingyu that he had specially invited was still standing there.

He glanced at Xia Xingyu before saying, "Miss Xia, if you really can't take it anymore, you can go back first. I'll have to trouble you to come here today."

Xia Xingyu felt a bit uncomfortable and didn't know how to respond. She watched that person being sent into Xia Ying's cell, and couldn't help but run out of the basement.

However, she didn't expect to see Shen Peian at the door of Huo Chen's villa.

"Why are you here?"
