Chapter 1067: Taking Advantage of Another Family’s Daughter
Huo Ci and Situ Sang did not like each other.
Huo Ci was very satisfied. The kid that he had raised had finally grown up and knew how to take advantage of another family’s beautiful daughter. When he looked at Situ Sang, he had a sense of superiority that came from within.
Situ Sang’s heart was broken. His daughter is closer to other people than himself now.
This was especially so when Huo Ci kept showing off in front of him like his precious daughter was taken by his family’s son. It made him so angry that he wished he could go home immediately. However, his wife and daughter liked their family, so what could he do? He could only hold back his tears and cry alone.
When Xiaoqi and Ling Sheng were at home, the house had always been very lively. Even when it’s just the two of them, they could have fun with each other. In addition, Huo Xiao, who did not like his son, would always chase after him to beat him up, making the house even livelier.
After Situ Sang and his family moved in, Huo Xiao’s att.i.tude towards Huo Ci improved a lot. One should not wash their dirty linens in public, so he could not possibly hit his son in front of outsiders. That b.a.s.t.a.r.d was shameless, but he still cared about his own face!
Xiaoqi had learned how to fold paper frogs in kindergarten today. It would jump up and down whenever he pressed its b.u.t.tocks. He gave Little Sangyu the paper frogs as if he was offering a treasure to her and then went to do his homework.
Little Sangyu has not started schooling yet, but she knew that there would be many friends in the kindergarten who could play with her. But she didn’t want to be with those children, she only wanted Brother Xiaoqi.
Xiaoqi sat in front of the study table and was focusing seriously on his homework that his grandfather had asked him to do. Every afternoon when he came back from kindergarten, he would practice his calligraphy. His grandfather disliked the ugly handwriting in the calligraphy paper sold in bookstores so he wrote it himself. He even said that his calligraphy was unique in the world.
Hearing her mother’s words, Little Sangyu knew that she shouldn’t disturb Brother Xiaoqi’s studies. She puffed up her cheeks and ran behind him with the little frog. She looked at him with her big eyes and lowered her voice. “Brother Xiaoqi, can Sangyu sit with you and write?”
Xiaoqi turned around. “Do you know how to read?”
Little Sangyu shook her head. Her big eyes sparkled as she said in a soft voice, “Brother Xiaoqi, please teach me.”
Xiaoqi hadn’t finished his task and was only halfway through writing. But when he saw Little Sangyu’s expectant look, he couldn’t bear to reject her and nodded. “Okay.”
Little Sangyu snorted and pulled a stool to the side. She climbed up and sat down, then swung her short legs and reached out for the pen. But her hands were small and fat, she tried several times but failed. She got impatient and complained. “Brother Xiaoqi, the pen is not working!”
Xiaoqi smiled gently and pa.s.sed her a pen. He held her soft and chubby hand. As a teacher in charge, he taught her very seriously. “This word is human.”
Little Sangyu’s face tightened as she repeated his words very seriously.
Shang Yu came over to bring fruits for the two little fellows. When she reached the door, she saw her precious daughter, who had said that she wanted to play with Brother Xiaoqi for the entire afternoon and had asked her countless times when his school ended. She actually stopped playing and practiced calligraphy together with him. She was even learning seriously.
When she was at home, her daughter was just a little princess who could do anything she wanted. She was already so old, yet she still cannot do anything on her own. She had always said that her husband had spoiled her too much. When the time came, she would not be able to take care of herself.
After that, she made her learn how to eat, brush her teeth, wash her face, and sleep. She had to coax her for a long time before she was willing to do it.
However, ever since she came to the Huo Family, she had been learning from Xiaoqi. She followed Xiaoqi wherever he went. She didn’t need anyone to feed her, brush her teeth, wash her face, or tuck her into bed. She didn’t even need anyone to teach her anything and even changed her usual spoiled habits.
The Huo family’s upbringing was very good and had taught the child very well. It was said that his grandfather had taught the child. She did not expect a person like Huo Ci to be able to teach a child well.
Huo Ci, who knew how to teach children, was reading a script in the study. When his phone rang, he glanced at it lazily. When he saw that it was Jun Shiyan calling, he kicked it away. He did not want to pick up his call, but after thinking for a while, he returned the call. He did not sound angry. “What’s the matter?”
“Father-in-law, there’s something I think I must tell you. Ji Shiming was involved in many things. When I followed the clues, I found out that the person who kidnapped Xiaoqi was Huo Zhen.” Jun Shiyan’s voice was low. “Are you going to settle this matter, or should I go?”
If it had been someone else, he would have killed him without a second thought. However, this person was the Second Brother of the Huo family, Huo Zhen. According to seniority, he had to address him as Second Uncle. He had even kidnapped Huo Ci back then, he certainly did not expect that he would use the same trick again to kidnap Xiaoqi.
If it weren’t for Si Chengluo’s prediction that Xiaoqi was on a ship, they would be searching for a needle in a haystack. As long as Xiaoqi left China and entered the black market, it would be extremely difficult to find him again.
It was his fault for involving the child in the feud between adults. He had to take revenge.
“I understand.” Huo Ci’s eyes suddenly turned cold, and there was a hint of bloodthirstiness in them. He lowered his voice and said, “Don’t interfere for now. I’ll settle it myself.”
Great!
After so many years, he still refused to let him off. Now, he actually implicated the child in their feud. If he wanted to implicate children, he would get his wish!
Situ Sang’s family left the next day.
Before they left, Little Sangyu cried badly. She hugged Ling Sheng and refused to let go. Her eyes were red and swollen, and she didn’t want to leave. She pouted and cried. “Mommy, can you tell my parents that Sangyu can’t leave?”
Seeing the little girl crying so much, Ling Sheng wiped her tears for her, feeling sorry for her. “But Little Sangyu needs to go home. Doesn’t Little Sangyu still have Little Bean Sprout to take care of at home? It must have missed you after you left for so long.”
Little Bean Sprout was a big golden retriever raised by Little Sangyu and was about the same age as her. The owner had grown up with the pet and they were very close. Little Sangyu had to take it with her wherever she went.
This time, he didn’t bring Little Bean Sprout with him because Little Bean Sprout had gotten into a fight with a wild wolf when she brought it out to play. It was injured and was recuperating at home!
Little Sangyu cried even harder when she heard Little Bean Sprout’s name. She couldn’t bear to leave her mommy, great-grandpa, great-grandmother, grandparents, and Uncle Jun. She couldn’t bear to leave Brother Xiaoqi the most. He had left for kindergarten and hadn’t come to see her off..
