Chapter 800: Status Symbol (4)


Ling Sheng thought, there is nothing to say anyway. Upon seeing her grandpa’s livid face, she knew that he was worried about her. However, she did not care. After all, she had a strong heart. Her expression changed, and her voice lowered too. “The child’s father died long ago.”


“Oh my, look at my stupid mouth. Sheng Sheng, you mustn’t take my words to heart!” Xiao Hui had not expected her to answer herself. However, when she saw the Old Master’s expression, she knew that things were not that simple. If he was dead, the Old Master would not be in a hurry to speak up for her. She was probably like Sixth Brother; she probably did not even know who the child’s father was!


Su Xiyin’s expression was not good either. None of these daughters-in-law were easy-going. They all kept thinking about the Huo Family’s a.s.sets. With every day that her husband did not reveal his will, they would be restless!


Ling Sheng said, “I won’t.”


Huo Li too had not expected that the illegitimate daughter Sixth Brother had brought back would turn out to be a young artist managed by his company. His father had only said that he was bringing someone back. He had not said anything else. None of them knew who she would be either.


Upon seeing Ling Sheng, he felt that this was unexpected but also logical.


“Are you done?” When Huo Ci walked out of the room, he saw a group of people gathered at the brat’s door. His fourth brother and sister-in-law were also there. His fourth sister-in-law was not a good person. He strode over in a few steps and looked at Ling Sheng. “What are you waiting for? I’ll take you two to pay New Year’s greetings.”


Then, he walked over and picked Xiaoqi up.


Xiao Hui could not tell if Huo Ci really cared about the b*stard mother and son he had just found or if he was deliberately putting on a show for them. She only smiled and said, “Congratulations, Sixth Brother. You found your daughter.”


Huo Ci said, “Congratulations to you too, Fourth Sister-in-law. Don’t you have an additional niece now? If Sheng Sheng does anything wrong in the future, please forgive her.”


Ling Sheng stood by the side. When she heard her father call her Sheng Sheng, she shivered suddenly. The sun had risen from the west. This was truly the first time he had called her by her nickname so intimately. For a moment, she really could not accept it!


“Sixth Brother, didn’t you see how much Father dotes on Sheng Sheng? She’ll be our family’s precious princess in the future,” Xiao Hui smiled as though she was half-joking. “She’ll be Father’s favorite person in the future. Even if we had the guts, we wouldn’t dare do anything to Sheng Sheng.”


When she heard this, Su Xiyin’s expression darkened. She had always tried her best to exercise patience at home, and she had never interfered with her daughters-in-law unless she truly could not take it anymore. What did this Fourth Daughter-in-law mean?


Huo Ci tugged at her and stood in front of her. He looked at the woman in front of him and smiled. “Fourth Sister-in-law is right. In our Huo Family, girls are the apple of our eye. If Fourth Sister-in-law and Fourth Brother feel unhappy, you can have another child!”


Xiao Hui was already close to 50 years old, so how could she have a child? When she heard Huo Ci’s words, fury balled up in her chest with nowhere to vent. Her face turned pale. “Fourth Brother, how can you say that?”


Huo Ci’s handsome face was full of smiles as he added infuriatingly, “If Fourth Sister-in-law has nothing to do, go tidy up the guest room for your Feifei.”


The two words “guest room” were deliberately emphasized.


Xiao Hui’s heart was burning with anger. Upon seeing Huo Ci walk down the stairs with his daughter and grandson, her eyes were full of ruthlessness and mockery as she said in a sarcastic tone, “Looks like Sixth Brother is going to make New Year visits. I remember that Sheng Sheng hasn’t acknowledged her roots and returned to the family register, right? With such an unverified ident.i.ty, she better not embarra.s.s our Huo Family.”
