Chapter 828: Stay Far Away from Him
Huo Xuanzhou said, “I don’t mean that. I’m just saying that it’s better for us family alone to go to the Su Family, Grandma’s maiden home. I just feel sorry for you and I’m afraid you’ll be tired. It’s quite a long journey to the old folks’ house.”
Ling Sheng knew that he was up to no good. “Don’t you beat around the bush with me! I’m warning you. Put away your crooked thoughts. Otherwise, I’ll tell my father whether you believe me or not. I’ll see if he doesn’t punish you properly!”
Huo Xuanzhou said, “What does my romantic relationship have to do with your father? Let me tell you something, Ling Sheng. Even the Milky Way can’t stop the cowherd and the weaving maid from meeting every once a year[1]. You guys can’t stop me.”
This brat! He just knew that her heart was as clear as a mirror. She had probably guessed it long ago and was too lazy to beat around the bush anymore.
During this period, he had been creating all kinds of opportunities to meet Su Yan by chance. He realized that the more he found out about her, the more he liked her. Some women were like a never-ending book. Every time the book was flipped open, there would be new surprises.
Su Yan happened to be this type of woman who could make him hold onto his passion and strong interest. This was the first time he felt that not all women were that boring. It made him feel like he had discovered a new world.
Besides, it was also a huge challenge. The more she ignored him and the calmer she was, the more he wanted to see her waver because of him.
When he thought of the day when she would go crazy with infatuation for him or even become heartbroken because of him, the blood in his entire body boiled with excitement.
This was the first time he had wanted to conquer a woman so badly and had sustained his passion for so long. He definitely would not let her escape his grasp.
Ling Sheng was flabbergasted to hear him talk about ‘The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl’. You’re just a douchebag. Are you worthy of being compared to him? Where’s your face? Do you still want it? “You’re looking for my aunt?”
Huo Xuanzhou raised his head arrogantly and turned to leave. He raised his hand and smiled, “No comment.”
Ling Sheng glared at him angrily and pointed at the back of his head. “Just you wait. My father’s fist will make you confess honestly.”
Why was he so shameless? He was definitely just playing around. It was just a matter of time. He had grown bored of those women he had chased in the past after he had wooed them.
Aunt Su Yan would not be the last. He was a playboy by nature. He wasn’t going after her for love but for his own selfish desires.
Huo Xuanzhou had not succeeded in persuading her and was preparing to find his grandma. It was easier to convince her. So what if he went to visit his relatives? How could they stop him?!
Ling Sheng gritted her teeth and stomped her feet. This d*mned Huo Xuanzhou! She could not stop him but she could always tell her aunt to stay far away from him!
During the Lunar New Year, the whole family was at home. It was very lively, and they all had fun late into the night, especially the men of the Huo Family. Normally, the Old Master would hold them back and not allow them to gamble. When it was the Lunar New Year, their hands would get itchy, and they had to play a couple of games every day.
That night, Huo Ci went to the Lu Family to find Lu Yubai. When he returned, they were short of one person at the table. Huo Pei dragged him over to play mahjong.
Most of the mahjong tables had been removed, and the friends who had been called to play mahjong had all gone home too. Only Huo Ji—who was more addicted to mahjong, Huo Li, and Huo Pei—who had been forced to stay back by the two of them—were still there.
The eldest son, Huo Ting, had been dragged away by his wife, Jiang Meiyun. The second son, Huo Zhen, had bad legs. Ever since the kidnapping incident, his personality had also become more and more depressing. He would not participate in such gatherings.
“Brother, that’s all for today. I’m a little tired.” Huo Ci did not know how to play mahjong, nor was he addicted to it. The main reason was that he lost every bet he made. He was truly awful at it.
