Zhao Jun seemed to be very excited and he kept on talking non-stop. “Huo You, after the news that you and Huo Tian were mistakenly brought back spread, everyone was very shocked. They didn’t expect that such a plot that would only appear in television dramas would actually happen in real life. Everyone was saying how lucky you are!”
“Later on, many children actually started suspecting that they weren’t their parents’ biological children and argued about going for a paternity test with their parents. What was even more ridiculous was that after the tests, several men realized that they had been made a cuckold. Some fell out with their wives on the spot, while others are still arguing about it all the time…”
Zhao Jun’s eloquence wasn’t bad. He made these things sound vivid and interesting. Even the employees in the milk tea shop were leaning on the counter and listening with great interest.
However, after talking for a long time, he realized that Huo You didn’t have much of a reaction. He belatedly realized that Huo You didn’t seem too happy.
Zhao Jun stopped talking and scratched the back of his head awkwardly. “Am I too noisy? I’m sorry, I’ve developed this habit because of my profession. I can’t stop talking once I start…”
“It’s indeed a little annoying.” Huo You didn’t intend to save Zhao Jun any face and said directly, “I’m not here to listen to you talk nonsense. I just want to ask you some things.”
Huo You’s attitude made Zhao Jun feel a little at a loss. He restrained his smile and said carefully, “What do you want to ask? I don’t know if I can help you…”
“Aren’t you neighbors with the Ding Family? You should know what happened to her family, right?” Huo You stared at Zhao Jun and continued to ask without waiting for his reply.
“Do you know about the matter of Huo Tian having found her biological father? What kind of person is Mr. Hill? Where have they moved to recently?”
Zhao Jun was stunned by Huo You’s series of questions. It took him a long while to react to things before he frowned and carefully replied, “Huo Tian did find her biological father, but I don’t know who the Mr. Hill you’re talking about is. He should be a foreigner, right? There haven’t been any foreign faces in Auntie Ding’s place.”
Zhao Jun wanted to continue to say that the Ding Family hadn’t moved, but he was interrupted by Huo You impatiently. “Mr. Hill is Huo Tian’s biological father. He might be of mixed blood, so he doesn’t have many characteristics of a foreigner.”
Zhao Jun revealed a thoughtful expression. “You have a point. Although Huo Tian’s father has black hair and eyes, his eyebrows are deep and his facial features do look a little mixed-race, but that doesn’t seem right. His surname isn’t that Hill[1]. His surname is Xi. Bi Ying and Si Huan both call him Uncle Xi…”
Huo You frowned deeply, thinking that this person in front of her was as stupid as before.
Huo You stopped arguing with him and changed the topic. She continued to ask, “It doesn’t matter if Huo Tian’s biological father’s surname is Xi or Hill. What matters is what kind of person he is.”
Zhao Jun was frightened by the agitated expression on Huo You’s face and shrank his neck. He said obediently like a quail, “I haven’t interacted much with Uncle Xi and don’t know him well, but I keep feeling that Uncle Xi is a very scary person, especially when he’s staring at Si Huan. That gaze looks like it can cut Si Huan into pieces!”
Thinking back to the scene he accidentally saw, Zhao Jun couldn’t help but feel admiration for Si Huan. Uncle Xi was very kind to him, who was a neighbor, but he didn’t dare to talk to him much.
And every time he saw Si Huan, he wore an expression that looked like he wanted to kill someone. However, Si Huan was still able to play with Huo Tian calmly. This kind of psychological endurance was not something ordinary people could have!
