It may be that people always feel nostalgic when they are old. Looking at the two sons Huo Yichen and Huo Xiuyuan, Huo Hong always thinks of Huo Tan from time to time.
After he thought about the engagement, and emphatically urged Huo Yichen to stop having any unreasonable thoughts, Huo Hong's mind still drifted away.
In order to help Huo Yichen get out of house arrest, Murong Qiao took the initiative to mention the engagement with Huo's family, and made a schedule to meet Huo Hong.
The housekeeper also received an order from this to pay special attention to the day when the Murong family came to visit, and make sure that there will be no problems.
As long as he can get the support of Murong's family, Huo Hong's heart is half relieved.
"I don't need to say much about the importance of this matter. I always feel at ease when you do things." Huo Hong looked at the butler in front of him.
The butler naturally responded, "Yes."
"Huo Yichen..." Huo Hong's voice was very meaningful.
As for his own son, he just feels a little uneasy recently whenever he thinks about it.
If there is no accident, Huo Yichen should be the heir, but thinking of the other party's disobedience to him, Huo Hong still has a knot in his heart.
But Huo Xiuyuan was even worse. If he had to choose one between the two, no matter which time Huo Hong would choose Huo Yichen.
Every time this happens, Huo Hong inevitably thinks of his dead son Huo Tan.
If it wasn't for the repeated confirmation that his son's death was accidental, he could hardly accept this fact.
The Huo family should have belonged to Huo Tan.
No matter what, the facts are established, and the engagement of the two families is imminent. Huo Hong does not allow any mistakes in this matter.
When that day came, the Huo family's front hall was surrounded by three circles inside and three circles outside, and most of the people in the Huo family were put here, for fear of any accidents.
Even Huo Hong rejected all the arrangements for the day, solemnly waiting for the arrival of Murong Chen and Murong Qiao.
This marriage can only succeed and not fail.
The atmosphere in the Huo family seemed to freeze suddenly, making people afraid to breathe. Everyone's nerves were tense, and their attention was highly concentrated.
Even the guards patrolling back and forth stepped up their frequency, to the point where they didn't even plan to let a fly in.
Sitting in the car of Murong's family, Murong Qiao saw many people patrolling around just by sitting in the back seat. The airtight pressure made her feel a little suffocated through the car window.
"Sometimes I wonder if Huo Hong treats Ah Chen as his son." She sighed.
Who can lock up his own son at home, like a prison?
If it wasn't for Huo Yichen who knew that the two were really father and son, Murong Qiao would sometimes have doubts about Huo Hong.
These words fell into Murong Chen's ears, he couldn't help but glanced sideways, after glancing at the scene outside, he still maintained a calm expression, he just reached out and stroked his sister's soft hair to comfort her.
Murong Chen said softly, "He only has interests in his eyes, Huo Yichen is now his biggest bargaining chip."
Having dealt with Huo Hong many times, Murong Chen naturally knew a little about this Patriarch Huo, and understood the deep essence of his character.
While the two were talking, the car slowed down and stopped at the gate of Huo's house.
Huo Hong smiled happily. "haven't seen you for a long time."
He shook hands with Murong Chen to say hello, and then looked at Murong Qiao who got out of the car. The other party was wearing a beautiful foreign cap and dress, holding Murong Chen's arm and standing a little behind, seeming a little nervous this time Meet.
Huo Hong's impression of Murong Qiao is still limited to the time at the last banquet. The other party seemed to be listening to Murong Chen's words, and he was easy to manipulate. This made him more confident in today's conversation.
Murong Qiao leaned against Murong Chen, avoiding Huo Hong's gaze.
Murong Qiao stretched out his hand to block the sun, looked at the sky with an irritable expression, and didn't even say hello to Huo Hong.
"Okay." Murong Chen raised his hand to help her block the sunlight above her head.
Although it is not obvious on the surface, seeing Murong Qiao get in and out of the car seems to switch states in a second. Even Murong Chen can't help but feel that his sister is really talented as an actress after watching this side.
Huo Hong smiled with a good temper, "It's because I was negligent."
Several people then entered the front hall and came to the room. The butler had already made preparations for the hospitality, and put the perfectly brewed tea in front of the corresponding seats, and saluted respectfully to attract everyone to their seats.
"I don't like drinking tea." Murong Qiao made a request as soon as he sat down.
The blunt and rude words made Huo Hong almost unable to hold back the smile on his face, and he felt a little irritated in his heart because of Murong Qiao's series of actions.
It's fine to go home halfway, but the Murong family didn't even teach her a little bit of tutoring?
Huo Hong thought he was an elder, but he didn't expect that Murong Qiao didn't take the usual path at all. Every step from the meeting to the present was unexpectedly stepping ahead of his rhythm.
"Yes, young people like to drink some drinks now." Huo Hong smiled and beckoned to the housekeeper to change.
He didn't seem to see Murong Qiao's rudeness, and if he followed the other party's request, if the smile on his face was more kind, he would really look like an elder who dotes on Murong Qiao.
"Since I'm here, I'll get straight to the point," Huo Hong took the opportunity to mention the key points of this meeting.
He glanced at Murong Chen who sat down and said nothing, "Actually, I'm not stubborn. If two young people really like each other, it's natural to make the decision based on success. Besides, the requirement of being a good family is also satisfied."
Huo Hong almost understood that Huo Yichen and Murong Qiao liked each other together, and both inside and outside the words revealed the intention to discuss marriage matters with Murong Chen.
"It just so happens that Huo Yichen is also at home today, I'll let him down, if the two of us decide this matter today—"
"I don't want to see him."
Murong Qiao interrupted suddenly, "He seems to have disappeared these days, and he hasn't responded to my messages."
She complained a few words, with the word awkward written on her face, it was obvious that she was angry with Huo Yichen.
"If he comes down, I will leave." Murong Qiao added at the end.
She pretended to be suffocated, looking around at the stairs from time to time, as if Huo Yichen was about to get up and leave as soon as she got down.
Saying this is naturally against your will.
Murong Qiao came here to help Huo Yichen escape, if he was called down by Huo Yichen to sit here, wouldn't he be able to slip away.
She didn't show any thoughts on her face, but the elder brother Murong Chen who was sitting at the side could see her sister's thoughts clearly.
He suppressed a smile and sat by the side with a sullen face. In his heart, he felt that his sister's savage appearance was also cute, and seeing Huo Hong deflated, Murong Chen's mood became much happier.
How could Huo Hong let him go, and quickly added, "Then don't ask him to come down."
While he disliked Murong Qiao, he also felt that Murong Qiao's words followed his own wishes.
If Huo Yichen is asked to come down, Huo Hong himself is afraid of all kinds of problems. If Murong Qiao doesn't like to see Huo Yichen, it will be more convenient for him to control the situation.
This matter must be done, Huo Hong naturally intends to follow Murong Qiao's wishes.
"Then this marriage..." Huo Hong looked at Murong Chen.
It is naturally Murong Chen who really has the right to speak.
But Murong Chen met Huo Hong's gaze, but returned the words lightly.
Murong Chen patted his younger sister on the shoulder, "Naturally, Qiao Qiao will come here however she likes, and the younger sister who was finally found, must not let her be wronged."
