Huo Xiao turned to look at his wife, his expression darkening. “Yin Er, he… He… What did he just call me?”
Great-grandfather?
His heart did not feel good!
“Honey, calm down. Sit down first.” Su Xiyin helped him onto the sofa to calm him down. “Listen to me carefully!”
Ling Xiao Qi, who was clever, ran over to pour a cup of tea. “Great-grandpa, have some tea.”
Huo Xiao looked at the adorable child in front of him. When he smiled, he was really adorable, but what exactly had happened?
What kind of sin had that scumbag son of his committed?
Su Xiyin told him everything.
Ling Xiao Qi brought the DNA test obediently. “Great-grandpa, don’t be mad.”
Huo Xiao’s face was ashen, and his hands were trembling.
No.
No.
How could he not be angry?
It was fine if his son had done such a ridiculous thing!
However, his considerate little wife had actually helped him hide it from him!
“Hubby, I’m sorry. Ci Er wanted to tell you when he got back.” Su Xiyin was like a child who had done something wrong. She was crying miserably.
When he saw how sad his wife was, Huo Xiao’s heart ached. He quickly wiped her tears and said, “It’s alright, I’m not blaming you. It’s my fault.”
Yin Er was fifteen years younger than him, but she had married him at the prime of her life. She had not minded that he had been married before, that he was a middle-aged widower, or that he was an old man with five sons.
Ever since she had married into the Huo Family, she had been very well-behaved.
It was not easy being the stepmother of five children. Besides, her sons were only four years younger than her. She had to learn to tolerate everything and not scold or hit them like biological children. She could not let any outsiders criticize her.
When she was out, she was a virtuous wife and a loving mother, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo Family. When she closed her door every day, she would secretly wipe her tears away.
He knew she was suffering, and his heart was aching for her. He had always pampered her like a treasure and tried his best to make it up to her in other ways.
The couple only had one son, Ci Er. She liked it that the other daughters-in-law were unwilling to have another child, fearing that any other children would gossip about her marrying into the Huo Family for its estate.
It was also because of this that Ci Er listened to her every single word regarding his affairs, which had led to his current unrestrained nature.
He had not gotten married despite his old age. When he had been his age, his elder brother had already been an adult as old as Xiao Qi.
Su Xiyin stopped crying when she heard that. In a hoarse voice, she said, “You can hit and scold Ci Er, but don’t scare Sheng Sheng and Xiao Qi!”
“I know, I know.” Upon seeing his wife stop crying, Huo Xiao finally smiled. “I’ll listen to everything you say. I’ll do whatever you want me to do, alright?”
Su Xiyin pushed him away and whispered, “Xiao Qi is here!”
The father and daughter duo were about to start fighting on the balcony.
Huo Ci was a scumbag with an impulsive personality, so they fell out immediately.
Ling Sheng’s temper was not mild either.
“If you dare see Jun Shiyan again, I’ll break your legs! Do you believe me?”
“It’s none of your business who I date. You can’t stand seeing others be richer and more capable than you. You are jealous!”
“I’m jealous, you brat? Say that one more time. I’m warning you, with the exception of Jun Shiyan, your old man doesn’t have an opinion on who you date. Even if you go out on the streets and find a tramp, I’ll be f*cking happy to organize your wedding!”
“Why should I find a tramp?”
“You…”
Bang!
The balcony door opened.
Huo Xiao stood at the door with a dark face.
Huo Ci’s eyes darkened instantly as though he had been struck by lightning.
When had he come?
