Chapter 223 223. Can’t Afford It

In the past, when she walked to the dining table, the maids would pull out a seat for her, but now no one moved, not even her breakfast on the table.

Lu Chaoyang didn't care about these, she only wanted to know what Huo Chen's situation was now.

Walking to Mrs. Huo, she leaned over and asked respectfully, "Grandma, may I ask, where is he?"

"Oh, you still care about him?" The old lady put down the chopsticks in her hand with a half-smile, and looked at her coldly, "When you left with him, didn't you think about him? As a person. A soldier can bear the responsibility of leaving the military without permission, or you can!"

Leaving the military headquarters without authorization?

Lu Chaoyang was surprised. Didn't he say that everything had been taken care of...

"If it weren't for the fact that the current leader was a subordinate of the old man during his lifetime, he wouldn't be as simple as recording a major demerit! The dignified major general actually deserted for a woman!"

The old lady became angrier and more disappointed as she spoke. Looking at the beautiful face in front of her, she wished she could slap her in the face!

"I don't know..." If she knew that he left without authorization, she would never agree. "Grandma, where is he now? Can you let me see him and settle this matter?"

She was really worried about not seeing him again.

"He has been carried back to the military headquarters. No one can disobey the organization's orders! And you, please don't ever meet me again!"

After the old lady finished speaking, she looked away, but she was too angry to eat.

Lu Chaoyang stood up straight, turned around and walked out.

Chen joined the army and returned so early. What should he do with his injuries?

She implicated Chen and caused him to be recorded a serious demerit.

They are no longer young, so why is she still so impulsive...

It’s cold in Kyoto in winter, but what’s even colder is the human heart.

The old lady's eyes pierced Lu Chaoyang's heart with every glance. Such hatred was completely different from the old man who smiled kindly at her before.

Lu Chaoyang knew that everything was brought about by herself. When she made the choice to leave, she could only move forward without hesitation. The result of turning back halfway is what it is now, bearing all the attacks and accusations.

But she didn't expect that it would ruin Huo Chen's future.

He went through life and death to complete the mission and obtain the rank of major general, but he was tainted because of himself.

"What are you doing standing here? Doesn't it look good!"

The old lady's voice suddenly came from behind. After finishing her meal, she originally wanted to go out to eat, but she didn't expect to see Lu Chaoyang again. What a bad luck!

Lu Chaoyang glanced at where he was standing, on the stone pavilion in the back garden.

There was no one here, so she came here.

She turned around when she heard the sound and shouted respectfully, "Grandma."

The old lady let out a cold snort from her throat, "Don't yell, I'm not your grandma and I can't bear the responsibility."

As soon as she said this, the two maids following her glanced at Lu Chaoyang, with cold disdain in their eyes.

She was never from the Huo family, but now, hey, she is just a douchebag who accepts charity.

"Old lady." Lu Chaoyang changed the title politely, and then walked back.

She knew in her heart how unpopular she was now. Since Mrs. Huo didn't want to see her, she tried not to appear in front of others.

Huo Zhenning and Xue Yuming were not at home either, and probably didn't want to see her.

Even the servants no longer respected her as before, and some of the bold ones would just roll their eyes at her.
