Going Back on Your Words

“Not my biological granddaughter?” Huo Feng sneered. “Which one of you is my biological grandchild?”
The man who was the first to speak quickly squatted beside Huo Feng’s bed and said, “Granduncle, my father is your biological nephew. We’re family.”
Wen Nian knew this man. He was Young Master Huo, Huo Mu. He was indeed capable in business, but he had many cunning tricks. In her previous life, he had even cheated Wei Xiao of his money. She was really familiar with this person.
Sensing Wen Nian’s gaze, Huo Mu rolled his eyes at her and said to Huo Feng affectionately, “Granduncle, you didn’t even know her before. Perhaps she has ill intentions. That piece of land in the suburbs of the capital…”
Huo Li coughed heavily. Only then did Huo Mu remember that Shen Jun was still around and quickly changed the topic. “Old Master, young people nowadays are full of tricks. You don’t even know what she’s thinking.”
“You’re right.” Huo Feng nodded seriously and looked at Huo Mu coldly. Huo Mu felt like a prey that was being watched, unable to move.
Huo Feng looked around again. “Yes, none of them are my biological grandchild. I don’t know what tricks they have up their sleeves. Wen Nian, I’m tired and don’t want to deal with them anymore. Please send the guests off on my behalf.”
At the end of his sentence, he added, “There’s a broom at the door. If they don’t leave, hit them hard. If it is broken, I will be accountable.”
Wen Nian was so embarrassed that she didn’t know what to say. Huo Shuang wanted to continue, but Huo Li shook his head. He looked at Wen Nian deeply, then took a deep breath and bowed slightly to Wen Nian. “My uncle has a bad temper. I’ll have to trouble Miss Wen to take care of him. If anything happens, you can contact me at any time.”
In the end, he really took out his business card and handed it to Wen Nian. Then, he left the ward with the unwilling crowd.
Jiang Chun wanted to stay, but the Huo family had left. She glanced at Shen Jun sadly, but Shen Jun ignored her. She glared at Wen Nian and left the ward.
Huo Feng frowned and looked at Shen Jun. “Little Master Shen, why aren’t you leaving?”
“Old Master Huo, you must be joking. I’m just a junior in front of you. How would I dare to be addressed as Master?” Shen Jun said respectfully. “Besides, you’re my girlfriend’s grandfather now. It’s only right for me to be here with her to fulfill filial piety.”
Huo Feng looked at him in surprise and then at Wen Nian.
Wen Nian said in embarrassment, “His family invested in this hospital. I can’t register without your identity card, so I contacted him just now and got him to give me the approval.”
Hearing Wen Nian’s explanation, Huo Feng nodded. He had really not thought of this. He had thought that she had gotten special approval in the hospital because Wen Nian was a celebrity.
Only then did a smile appear on his face. “That’s because I benefited from you. Otherwise, when my bone fractures heal, I might not even be able to finish the examination!”
Hearing that he could still joke, Wen Nian and Shen Jun were relieved. They were afraid that Huo Feng would think that they did it on purpose.
Huo Feng had never thought that way. He usually kept a low profile and rarely appeared in public. The Huo family did not know his whereabouts, let alone these children.
Thinking of the scene just now, Wen Nian was a little conflicted. In the end, she asked, “Grandpa Huo, your family just now…”
“Call me grandpa!” Huo Feng corrected himself. “Didn’t you promise me just now? You went back on your word after seeing that I’m a member of the Huo family? Why are you going back on your word?”
Wen Nian was stunned for a moment before saying helplessly, “Grandpa, I didn’t know that you had such a powerful backing. In the beginning, when you were bullied by Li Yu, I thought you were…”
“Do you think I’m a lonely old man who’s bullied by rich children?” Huo Feng said unhappily. “I told you long ago that if they hadn’t ambushed me, how could those little brats be my match?”
He waved his fist twice and suddenly felt pain in his forearm. His expression also became painful.
Wen Nian quickly helped him secure his arm and complained, “Yes, you’re the best, but can you take care of your injured arm? It takes a hundred days to recover from a serious injury! I’ll go back and get you some pork trotters to nourish yourself. I know how to make braised pork trotters.”
Wen Nian suddenly thought of the Huo family’s faces just now and said helplessly, “You have so many relatives. They will take good care of you.”
“Hmph, they’re just waiting for me to die so that they can split my assets.” Huo Feng’s tone was cold, and there was a hint of sadness in his eyes.
