When Huo Xiang arrived at Bai Zhen Zhen’s home, only Father Bai and Yang Suping were left in the living room.

When he saw Huo Xiang, Father Bai was exceptionally excited, and he opened his mouth to ask: “Xiao Huo, just a moment ago I hear Zhen Zhen say on the phone that the grandson of the richest man… is called Huo Xiang, the exact same name as you?”

Huo Xiang nodded.

Father Bai asked again: “She answered the phone and immediately went back to her room, we asked her what the matter was but she didn’t tell us. Be honest with us, the person they’re talking about on TV… it’s not really you, right?!”

“It’s me.” Huo Xiang didn’t conceal it in the least.

Actually, he had come here today precisely because he wanted to confess this important matter.

In the evening, his grandfather had invited the Family Bai to have a meal, saying he wanted to meet them formally.

Hearing Huo Xiang’s confirmation, Father Bai’s face instantly darkened.

To the side, Yang Suping couldn’t be more excited.

“Really, it’s really you ah?!” Her speedy words were somewhat incoherent, “Xiao Huo ah, ah no, Young Master Huo, please sit down ah, aiyo, you say, what kind of fate is this ah, such an unexpected coincidence!”

Yang Suping said while asking Huo Xiang to sit down. She enthusiastically poured him a cup of tea.

But as soon as Huo Xiang sat down, Father Bai immediately pointed at the door and told him with a cold face: “You can go away, you’re not welcome here.”

Huo Xiang smiled awkwardly: “Uncle Bai, you think I deceived you, that’s why you’re angry? Actually I went to see my grandfather yesterday in the afternoon, before that, I only knew that I was an orphan.”

He still didn’t have the nerve to change the way he called him to dad.

Let alone changing it, looking at Father Bai’s face full of resentment, he completely couldn’t fathom what Father Bai was thinking. Even if one felt they’d been “deceived,” one’s attitude wouldn’t have such a huge change, as if he held a grudge against him.

“I’m not angry,” Father Bai replied, but his tone was still not particularly good, “it’s simply that we can’t accommodate you, this honorable big Buddha, in this run-down place.”

“Old Bai, what nonsense are you talking about!” Yang Suping glared at Father Bai, “Zhen Zhen has already obtained a marriage certificate with Young Master Huo! They are legitimate husband and wife, how can you drive away your own son-in-law…”

After saying this, she said to Huo Xiang, beaming: “Young Master Huo, you must by all means not take offense ah, your Uncle Bai is extremely happy making him become muddled ne!”

Father Bai rebuked her: “You are muddled! Think well about it, selling our daughter to climb to high branches, what dignity do we have, marrying into that kind of household, can my daughter still be happy?”

“Uncle Bai, you exaggerate… Zhen Zhen and I sincerely love each other, this doesn’t have anything to do with my identity ah…”

“That’s right, that’s right!” Yang Suping agreed, “you have acknowledged Young Master Huo with your own mouth, of course, it’s good that he can know his grandparent and go back to his household! We are all a family, shouldn’t we be happy for him?! ”

“Aunt Yang, is Zhen Zhen in her room?” Huo Xiang wanted to try easing the atmosphere, so he changed the topic.

Yang Suping nodded as if pounding garlic¹ : “Right, right, right! Look at me, I was so extremely happy for you, that I forgot hat you came to look for Zhen Zhen! You go in, she is inside her room!”

Huo Xiang subconsciously glimpsed at Father Bai. Although Father Bai still looked as if he had a deep hatred, he didn’t do anything to stop him.

Therefore, he silently went to the room’s door and knocked twice.

Hey, congratz, you’re about to inherit the biggest fortune in the world (let’s forget for a second that you’re just in a book and probably won’t stay long enough to enjoy it). What could go wrong?

People’s brains could go wrong 🙃
