Chapter 46: The Huo Family
Huo Jinqi went to the company where those reporters who’d secretly photographed Xing Jiuan were from.
It was fine in the past when it was him that they offended. But this time, it seemed as if someone had struck a nerve with him.
“I have quite a lot of information on your company. Everything else now depends on your company’s sincerity.”
The boss of this company had personally received Huo Jinqi. When he heard this, his expression turned a little ugly. However, due to Huo Jinqi’s status, he said, “Second Young Master Huo, I will fire those people and never hire them again.”
“Is that all?”
“We won’t disturb that lady anymore either.”
Actually, Huo Jinqi didn’t need to do this. Xing Jiuan did not want to be involved with the Huo family. Even if something happened, she did not need the Huo family to stand up for her.
But Huo Jinqi had bumped into her, and he had already intervened. He would not let this go easily.
He was worried that these people would provoke Xing Jiuan in the future, so he decided to give them a warning in advance.
“This was the first time, and I hope it will be the last…
“If there’s a next time, you probably won’t want to know the consequences.”
With that, Huo Jinqi left. It was also because nothing else had happened to Xing Jiuan that he was able to talk about this amicably.
After returning to the Huo residence, he told his family about this.
“Okay, I got it. I’ll take note of this. Go and pack your things first,” Huo Jinyuan said with a deep voice.
Huo Jinqi’s flight was at night. Thus, he would set off in a while. He did not say anything else as he knew that his elder brother would handle it well.
“Big Brother, Dad, Mom, why are all of you sitting here?” Huo Chulan had just returned from outside. She rarely saw the three of them together at this time.
“Dad, Mom, I still have something on. I’ll go back to my room first.” After saying this, Huo Jinyuan ignored Huo Chulan and directly went upstairs.
Huo Chulan clenched her fists and walked over to sit on the sofa beside her parents. “Is Second Brother not home?”
“He’s upstairs. Is something the matter?” Madam Huo asked.
“I was just asking.” Huo Chulan smiled. “Dad, Mom, my design…”
Before she could finish, Madam Huo spoke.
“How are your parents doing?”
“They’re… doing well.”
Huo Jinqi happened to be coming down from upstairs. When he heard this, his eyes turned slightly cold. “Dad, Mom, I will probably be participating in a variety show next month. I might go over there directly after I return.”
“You’re not coming home?” Madam Huo asked.
“I’ll be back after the variety show has wrapped up,” Huo Jinqi replied.
“It’s your job. Do as you see fit,” Huo Jun said in a deep voice.
“Okay.”
“Second Brother, when are you coming back?”
“I don’t know,” Huo Jinqi said, then continued, “Don’t keep going to the Lu Corporation from now on.”
Huo Chulan’s eyes trembled. “Second Brother, I…”
“Since you wish to be the daughter of the Huo family, don’t do such an embarrassing thing.”
“But I—”
“Chulan, I told you before not to pester Lu Zhichen. Are you still being disobedient?” Madam Huo said with a stern voice.
“Mom, I really like him.” Huo Chulan’s face was slightly pale. She looked at Madam Huo with some grievance in her eyes.
“You can like him all you want. If you’re no longer a member of the Huo family, I will not control what you want to do, but as long as you have this status, don’t do such an embarrassing thing.”
“Mom…” Huo Chulan could not believe that Madam Huo would say such a thing. She was a little stunned.
“You’re not young anymore, and the Huo family has never mistreated you…” Madam Huo’s voice was stern. “But you should be aware that you have your own biological parents, and the Huo family is not your own.
“Since you want to be the Huo family’s daughter, don’t do anything that will hurt our reputation.”
