Huo Feng looked at Mr. Huo, who was filled with fury and was wearing a gloomy expression, but he did not feel any fear in his heart.
He was even in a daze for a moment, feeling as if he had transmigrated through time and returned to his childhood. Back then, he felt that his angry father was the most terrifying monster in the world. Every time he did something wrong, his father would reveal an angry expression that was the same as.
now. His mother, who usually doted on Huo Feng, did not dare to plead for him. Only Huo Tian, who wasn’t much older than Huo Feng, would not hesitate to use her slightly trembling body to block in front of the young Huo Feng to protect her brother.
Huo Feng was in a daze for a moment. He blinked and realized that there was no back view with spread-out arms in front of him. However he was no longer afraid of his angry father now.
He didn’t even understand why, when he was young, he would feel that his father would become the most terrifying monster in the world when he was angry. He was clearly just a middle-aged man who looked strong on the outside but was actually weak on the inside and was incompetent and raging
Huo Feng stood a few steps away from Mr. and Mrs. Huo and said calmly, “Dad, Mom, you’re back.”
Looking at the lack of nervousness or fear on Huo Feng’s face, Mr. Huo felt that his authority as the head of the family had been challenged. He felt even angrier. He pointed at Huo Feng and scolded, “You blind brat. Didn’t you see what your mother and I suffered at the banquet? You only cared about
yourself and didn’t give your parents any consideration at all!”
Huo Feng felt that Mr. Huo had more or less lost his cool. He had been waiting for Mr. Huo to finish venting his emotions while cursing. Then, he raised his eyebrows and said calmly, “Dad, what do you want me to do? Of course I know that you and Mom have suffered, but are you going to let me summon
my courage to argue with Mr. and Mrs. Hill? Or are you going to let me seek justice from the perpetrator who left the wound on my mother’s face?”
‘The huge living room of the Huo Family’s villa fell silent.
Mr. Huo’s angry expression froze on his face, looking ridiculous and awkward.
However, Mrs. Huo looked at her son, who was taller than her, feeling touched. She felt that she had been protected by her son. Her motherly heart was sour and swollen. She wanted to say something, but she was worried that it would agitate her emotionally unstable husband. In the end, she didn’t say
anything.
Fortunately, Mr. Huo hadn’t completely lost his cool. After realizing that Huo Feng was no longer the child who allowed him to hit and scold him without retaliating, Mr. Huo stood there in a daze for a while, then quickly recovered his composure.
Mr. Huo acted as if nothing had happened and changed the topic. “Come over and sit down. I have something to discuss with you guys.”
At today’s banquet, Mr. Huo had vaguely sensed that the true attitude of the Hill Family’s head towards the Huo Family was not friendly at all. Mr. Huo had felt hopeful that with Huo Tian and Huo Feng’s relationship, the Hill Family would not make a move on the Huo Family. However, he needed more
assurance just in case
Mr. Huo thought about it all the way home until he finally thought of a smart plan.
After the three of them sat down on the sofa in the living room, Mr. Huo said, “I’ve thought about it carefully. As parents, we’ve done many wrong things in the past. We shouldn’t have forced Huo You to agree to the political marriage with He Yu. Since she hates He Yu so much, why don’t we find her a
better marriage partner?”
Mr. Huo hadn’t had the chance to discuss his thoughts with Mrs. Huo, and she didn’t know what he was trying to do. Moreover, she was still angry and didn’t want to pay any heed to Mr. Huo, who had slapped her. Therefore, she just lowered her eyes and didn’t say anything.
Mr. Huo didn’t get Mrs. Huo’s response and could only look at Huo Feng, only to see that Huo Feng’s expression was calm as if he wasn’t interested in his words at all.
After being rebutted by Huo Feng in person just now, Mr. Huo didn’t dare to treat Huo Feng harshly. He could only clear his throat awkwardly and continue, “Huo You and Mrs. Hill have confirmed their adoptive mother and daughter relationship.. Moreover, with our Huo Family backing her and her not an
unpresentable girl, I think not only in $ City, but even the wealthy families abroad might view Huo You as a potential partner for political marriage…”
