Chapter 567 - Miss Song’s Biological Brother
Chapter 567: Miss Song’s Biological Brother
Huo Tian had been kneeling in the ancestral hall for three hours. When she came out, her knees hurt so much that she felt like she was being pricked by needles every few steps.
She was too ashamed to go out. She stayed until it was time for the New Year’s Eve dinner before she had no choice but to leave the room.
Along the way, everyone’s gazes made her feel like they were laughing at her in private.
She was right in thinking this. After all, they, as collateral relatives, were constantly quarreling in private. You step on me, I step on you; it was definitely not friendly.
Every year, when they went back to the old manor for New Year’s Eve dinner, it was always back and forth, tit for tat.
“Tiantian, come over here.”
Gu Fenlan saw Huo Tian walking over with her head lowered and hurriedly waved her hand.
She felt sorry for her daughter, but she was also angry that she was insensible.
How did she teach her before she came? This was the old manor! Huo Yunque had found a girl to be his partner, and even if he found a random person, it was not up to her to tell him what to do!
For the whole day, their family was completely ignored.
On the other hand, Huo Zexi, because of his sweet mouth, was treated differently by Grandfather Huo.
Thinking of this, Gu Fenlan hated her niece Dai Shiqing.
If she had known earlier, she would not have brought her here!
“Tiantian, I went to see you just now. Why didn’t you open the door for me? Are you angry at me?” Dai Shiqing asked worriedly with a slight chuckle.
“No.”
Huo Tian pursed her lips and her tone was stiff.
Hearing this, Dai Shiqing’s eyes darted. “That means yes.” She sighed helplessly. “I’m the one who let you down.”
“I told you I’m not angry at you!”
Huo Tian hated to hear such words. She frowned impatiently and raised her head abruptly. The next second, she was stunned…
The man sitting next to the girl heard something and lowered his head to smile faintly. His hair was jet-black and slightly thin. A hand was casually placed on the back of the girl’s chair, in the posture of a guardian.
His eyes were filled with gentleness as he looked at the girl beside him.
At that moment, Huo Tian heard the sound of her heart beating wildly.
She opened her mouth, and the boiling temperature gradually spread to her face.
“Tiantian? What are you…looking at?”
Sensing Huo Tian’s strange behavior, Dai Shiqing followed her gaze and looked over. When her gaze fell on Song Wenchuan, her scalp could not help but go numb.
The man’s posture was elegant, his temperament noble and refined.
But to Dai Shiqing, he was like a devil.
Other than when he was facing his own sister, when he looked at others, his gaze was cold and devoid of warmth, like a monster without human emotions.
“Who is that?”
Huo Tian blinked, her fingertips slightly curled up. The voice that traveled into her ear felt unfamiliar to her.
She was shy and excited…
Dai Shiqing was surprised. She felt that something was wrong with Huo Tian.
She turned her head and saw that her little face was burning red. She was looking at the man next to Song Yaoyao, and her eyes were shining brightly like a young girl in love.
“Tiantian…” Dai Shiqing did not understand. Why would she fall for such a man?
This kind of man gave all of his gentlenesses to his sister. If she wanted to be with him, she had to accept how good he was to another woman; her life was even more important than his own.
Which woman could bear that?
“Who is he?” Huo Tian frowned and asked again.
This time, her tone was much colder.
Dai Shiqing pursed her lips. “He is Miss Song’s biological brother.”
As soon as she said this, Huo Tian’s little face instantly turned pale.
Song Yaoyao’s biological brother…
“Eat this.”
“Drink the soup first.”
Song Yaoyao was sandwiched in the middle, and her plate was piled up into a small hill. She scrunched up her little face, wanting to cry but no tears came out.
