NovelEnglishChapter 255: Protect
The call was picked up very quickly from Huo Tian’s side. Huo Feng could hear that the environment on her side was a little noisy. It seemed like a group of people were discussing their results. Occasionally, someone would mention the banquet that was going to be held in a few days…
Huo Feng already had an answer in his heart, but he still asked, “Sister, are you really the young miss from the Hill Family?”
“You’ve found out about this too? Did Huo You tell you?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHuo Tian didn’t feel that there was anything to hide about her identity either. She said casually, “Actually, I only found out today that Dad’s family is called Hill. Previously, I only knew that they opened a pharmaceutical and medical equipment company in the United States. I don’t know anything else. After all, I grew up in S City and had only reunited with Dad recently. I’m also unaware of those complicated family matters…”
“I know Sister has never been interested in managing the matters of an influential family, so it’s normal for you to not know.” Huo Feng sighed softly on the phone.
“It’s really surprising that Sister has such a relationship with the Hill Family. I thought that I would be able to personally send you a gift on Sister’s birthday, but it seems that that’s impossible.”
“Why not? Aren’t you coming to my birthday banquet?” Huo Tian asked curiously. “My father is simply too high-profile about this. Didn’t he already invite all the famous people in S City? The Huo Family should be coming too, right?”
“No, they didn’t receive an invitation. Sister, I think it’s impossible that Mr. Hill doesn’t know what happened to you in the Huo Family. He’s probably taking revenge for you now, that’s why he deliberately didn’t invite the Huo Family.”
Although Huo Feng was talking about his family and parents, his tone was not depressed at all. Instead, it was filled with pleasant mockery.
Huo Tian felt that Huo Feng’s attitude seemed a little strange and couldn’t help but say, “If Dad really doesn’t intend for the Huo Family to attend my birthday banquet, the Huo Family will probably be very embarrassed. Why aren’t you angry at all?”
Then, Huo Tian knew that the strange feeling in her heart wasn’t a delusion. This was because she heard Huo Feng laughing softly on the other end of the line. Huo Tian felt that Huo Feng was a little ridiculous.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHuo Feng laughed for a short moment then said casually, “Mr. Hill is as softhearted as my sister. Even his so-called revenge is so lighthearted. He’s just not giving the Huo Family any face. I think this will only make my parents feel embarrassed and won’t cause them any substantial harm. I’m not like them, who care more about the family’s reputation than anything else. So why should I be angry?”
Huo Tian said happily, “Brother Huo Feng, I like your open-minded attitude. I’ll go ask Dad about the situation and see if I can get him to change his mind and send an invitation to the Huo Family.”
Huo Feng was stunned. He was silent for a few seconds before saying, “Sister, you don’t have to do this. I don’t want…”
Before Huo Feng could finish, Huo Tian interrupted him. “I’m not trying to pretend to be magnanimous and forgive that couple from the Huo Family. I just think that based on their characters, if they knew that you’re able to contact me but didn’t get an invitation for the Huo Family, they might very well transfer their anger to you. Brother, I don’t want you to suffer an undeserved calamity.”
Huo Feng was stunned. After a long while, he swallowed, allowing his slightly tensed throat to relax a little. He hid the sourness in his heart and said softly, “Thank you, Sister. Even though you’ve left the Huo Family, you’re still trying to protect me.”
After hanging up, Huo Feng sat by the bed in a daze and stayed silent for a long while..
