Chương 1105: Would It Kill You to Hold My Hand? (6)

"Oh… Hello… brother-in-law," the girl said a little shyly, and Qin Chu nodded his head at her…

"Don't be so nervous." Huo Mian smiled, but she didn't really mean it.

The reason was simple. Her maternal grandfather and grandmother died young, and her mother had an older brother, Huo Mian's uncle, who married a long time ago in the village. His wife gave birth to a son and daughter and throughout the years, Huo Mian's uncle refused to come to see her mother. In the past, her mother used to visit them, often bringing them gifts and money.

Her mother spent a lot of money for her brother, but later when she fell from grace, Huo Mian's uncle cut off all ties with her. Her mother, in a fury, stopped talking to them. After Huo Mian got married and she and her mother's lives became well-off again, somehow her uncle found out and immediately contacted her. Huo Mian disliked their selfishness and therefore kept her distance from her uncle's family.
