Chapter 149: Causing a Storm

“I heard that you’re engaged in Cloud City? Did you bring your fiancée home this time? Where is she? Quickly let me take a good look!” Old Master Huo held Huo Xuan’s hand, his gaze sweeping across everyone before landing on Mo Zhu’s face.

He took two steps forward and pulled Mo Zhu to his side. Huo Xuan looked up and smiled. “Grandfather, this is your future granddaughter-in-law. Her name is Mo Zhu.”

Following Huo Xuan’s introduction, Mo Zhu greeted him politely and obediently.

Elder Huo quietly looked at Mo Zhu for a while and nodded in satisfaction. “Not bad, not bad. This young lady is beautiful and lively. She’s perfect for my Xuan’er.”

Seeing that Old Master Huo was personally praising Mo Zhu, Huo Lian, who was watching all of this coldly, was unhappy. She frowned and said angrily, “Dad, you don’t know this, but Xuan’er’s fiancée came from a remote mountainous area. Not only is her grades bad, but she’s also causing trouble everywhere. If such a person marries into the Huo family, who knows how many people will laugh at her behind our backs!”

When she said this, everyone looked at Mo Zhu with even more disdain.

In fact, when Huo Xuan sent the news to the Huo family yesterday, everyone had already investigated Mo Zhu’s background clearly. The reason why they didn’t mock her when they entered the house was because of Huo Xuan. Now that Huo Lian had started the topic, everyone stopped hiding their opinions and began to discuss Mo Zhu’s family background happily.

When Old Master Huo heard his daughter’s words, his face instantly turned cold. “So what if she’s a child from the mountainous regions? Since ancient times, countless heroes and heroes have come from the mountainous regions. Your great-grandfather is also from the countryside. If it weren’t for his hard work and hard work back then, how could you guys be living comfortably now?”

Huo Lian knew that Old Master Huo was angry. She curled her lips and lowered her head. She quickly explained, “I didn’t slander the people from the mountainous regions deliberately. I’m saying that this girl’s status isn’t compatible with our Xuan’er…”

“Hmph.” Before the woman could finish, Old Master Huo gave her a cold glance and interrupted her, “It’s Xuan’er’s own business what kind of wife he is willing to marry. Otherwise, he still has Xiao Man to watch over him. As his aunt, you don’t have to worry so much!”

“Dad, I just…”

Huo Lian wanted to explain further, but the old man didn’t want to listen anymore. He waved his hand and sat down on the main seat in the main hall impatiently. “Alright, stop talking. You guys have not stopped once since Xuan’er is back.”

Understanding the meaning behind Elder Huo’s words, everyone shut up and obediently found their seats.

Once Huo Xuan sat down, before he could wave Mo Zhu over, Kang Ying had already aimed for the seat beside him with her sharp eyes and sat down beside him.

She gave Huo Xuan a speechless look before walking over to Kang Ying. “Please make way. You’re sitting in my seat.”

Kang Ying could hear Mo Zhu’s displeasure and she raised her eyebrows with a look of disdain. “Who do you think you are to dare to be arrogant in front of me? The position beside Brother Xuan has always been mine since he was young. What right do you have to make me give up my position?”

Mo Zhu exuded a cold aura from head to toe. If anyone present knew her well, they would definitely know that this was a sign that she was about to flare up.

Suddenly, Huo Xuan slammed the table. He was one step ahead of Mo Zhu as he said, “On what basis? On the basis that she is my, Huo Xuan’s, fiancée and will be the officially married granddaughter-in-law of the Huo family in the future. I think you’re the one who really doesn’t have the right to sit in this position, right?”

Hearing Huo Xuan’s roar, Kang Ying lowered her head in grievance. “Brother Xuan, you’ve misunderstood me. I didn’t mean it that way…”

Without giving the girl a chance to explain, Huo Xuan immediately grabbed Mo Zhu’s hand and said, “I don’t care what the meaning of your words is, please give up your seat for my fiancée.”

Seeing that Kang Ying was still sitting there indifferently, Huo Xuan repeated coldly, “This is the Huo family. If you don’t understand human language, I’ll arrange for someone to send you back now.”

“Xuan’er, we’re all family, why do you have to make things so awkward? Ying’er is just used to sitting in this position and is not used to changing seats. Let’s talk things out nicely.”

The person who interrupted was the lady who had followed Kang Ying downstairs. She was Huo Qing, the eldest daughter of Old Master Huo who was ranked third in the family. Kang Ying was her husband’s niece. As she liked Huo Xuan, she had caused her a lot of trouble since she was young. Now that the girl was embarrassed, she could only take the initiative to smooth things over.

Knowing that she was the one who was in the wrong, Kang Ying stood up in anger and angrily sat in the empty seat beside Huo Qing.

Mo Zhu didn’t stand on ceremony. She sat down beside Huo Xuan openly and ignored the surrounding gazes that were looking at her. She directly took out her phone and started playing with it.

Out of sight, out of mind. As long as it didn’t affect her interests, she definitely wouldn’t provoke anyone in the Huo family.

In the spirit of wanting to avoid trouble, Old Master Huo picked up the teacup on the table and quietly took a sip. He then casually changed the topic back to Huo Xuan. “Xuan’er, although you’ve recovered, you still have to pay more attention to resting well. If you have nothing to do, bring my granddaughter-in-law to visit me more often. It’ll make me happy.”
