Chapter 71

he scenic garden. She turned her head and glanced back, to see Huo Mingzheng asleep leaning against the back of the chair.She called Cao Fang, but this time the call wasn't unanswered; it went straigh...Fu Yan arrived at the ward's door and heard Shen Wei crying, "Grandpa, don't blame Xiao Yan, it's my fault. I shouldn't have spoken out of turn. I didn't know my place."

Hu Mingzheng glanced at Fu Yan, who had been listless since getting in the car. She drooped her head, as if she were about to faint any moment.

He frowned, his thin lips moving slightly, and Old Master Huo's angry voice came out.

That's not a reason to hit you!

The sound of a cane hitting the ground echoed, "dong!", as Huo Mingzheng pushed open the hospital room door.

Old Master Huo swept his gaze over the woman beside him, letting out a cold hum and speaking in a serious tone: "Xiao Fu, what's going on here"

Shen Wei's half face was even redder and more swollen than this morning. Fu Yan knew she was cunning, but she didn't expect her to be so ruthless to herself. This much redness and swelling meant she must have used quite a bit of force.

He's really gotten into acting.

A chill ran down her spine, and she whispered, "I have nothing to say."

She didn't have the energy to argue with them. All she wanted now was to go see a doctor and get some cold medicine or a shot, anything to make her feel better.

Once this got to Old Master Huo's ears, she became completely unyielding.

"Audacious! She is your future sister-in-law, the mistress of the Huo family. How utterly disrespectful."

"Grandpa, please don't blame Xiao Yan..." Shen Wei looked anxious and tried to persuade him.

Old Master Huo, leaning on his cane, said, "From small to large, the Huo family has never restricted you in any way, which is why you have developed such a disrespectful and arrogant temper."

This statement is just short of saying that Fu Yan has no manners.

Her eyes were hot and her nose was stuffy, her breath steaming, "Uncle Huo never taught me to be one way in front of people and another behind their backs. You ask her, what did I do wrong to hit her!"

"Xiao Yan..." Shen Wei's eyes were moist. "I'm sorry, I won't interfere in your private affairs from now on."

A flash of anger crossed Fu Yan's eyes.

"Fu Yan!" Old Master Huo tapped his cane, shaking with anger. "You dare to be so arrogant in front of me Do you not see me as your grandfather Apologize to Xiao Wei!"

"Grandpa..."

Elder Ho comforted Shen Wei, "You don't need to say anything. I've never managed her from childhood to adulthood. It's a good opportunity to manage her today. She came from a small place and lost her father since she was young, so she has never been a good girl!"

"How dare you speak to my father like that!" Fu Yan blinked her tired, heated eyes, remaining unmoved by Old Master Huo's veiled insults.

The bottom line she couldn't cross was her father.

"Pay attention, Fu Yan!" Huo Mingzheng grabbed her arm and said sternly, "How dare you speak to Grandpa like that!"

Fu Yan forcefully threw him away, her eyes red with tears, "Don't worry about it!"

Once Huo Mingzheng entered the ward, he didn't say a word. I guess it's understandable, after all, he said he wanted her to apologize to Shen Wei.

"Are you just going to walk away after apologizing" She looked at him, her eyes stubborn and moist, like a frost-covered blade.

Hu Mingzheng's eyes were deep and profound, like the calm sea surface before a tsunami.

Fu Yan took a step back, sneered as she swept her gaze over Shen Wei's face, "Sorry."

After she finished speaking, she pushed Huo Mingzheng aside and strode out of the ward.

Grandfather Huo's eyes held a commanding gaze, and the bodyguard immediately turned to bring Fu Yan back.

"Cao Yuan!"

Ho Mingzheng gave an order, and Cao Yuan stopped the bodyguard.

Cao Yuan's martial arts prowess surpasses that of anyone in Cao Fang's ranks, and there is no one among the Huo family's bodyguards who can match him.

"Ah Zheng!" Old Master Huo said in a deep voice.

Huo Mingzheng retracted his gaze, his expression unreadable. "Grandfather, causing a scene at the hospital is not good for our image. This small matter doesn't warrant..."

......Huo went to Guangcheng to do business. At that time, Guangcheng was still chaotic, and there were many people living on the edge of a knife at the docks. Old Master Huo was ambushed and almost got int...
