Translator: Atlas StudiosEditor: Atlas Studios
Back then, Huo Xia was lonely and unsociable. Huo Tian, who had just learned how to walk, often ran around the Huo Family’s ancestral house. She was like a small animal, carefully taking the initiative to get close to Huo Xia, who was often alone. Perhaps it was because she was too lonely, but the teenage
Huo Xia didn’t mind that Huo Tian was just a brat and often played with her.
However, they only interacted for a short two years. After that, the Huo Family’s old master got into a car accident and passed away unexpectedly. Huo Xia and his biological mother left his country. After that, he never saw the little girl who ran around behind him when he was young again.
Huo Xia didnt expect that after so many years, Huo Tian would still be able to recognize her Uncle Little Xia. This made Huo Xia feel a hint of gentleness in his heart.

Mrs. Huo looked at the pale and skinny man and pinched the sleeve of Mr. Huo’s suit tightly.
Her face was pale and her lips were trembling. After a long while, she asked in a daze, “Hubby, is that person Huo Xia? Why did he come back?”
Mr. Huo’s gaze landed on Huo Xia gloomily, his eyes hiding a bloodthirsty killing intent.
His face was equally pale, but he tried hard to remain calm. He seemed to be consoling his wife as well as himself. “What are you afraid of? He’s just a sickly guy. What can he do to us?”
Huo Xia, who was chatting with Huo Tian, seemed to sense the cold gaze coming from the crowd. He turned her head slightly to look in the direction of the gaze and happened to meet his brother’s gloomy and unpredictable gaze.
He covered his mouth with a handkerchief and nodded slightly at Mr. Huo. He looked very amiable, but his eyes were equally cold without any emotions.
Mr. and Mrs. Huo’s moods fluctuated violently and they unconsciously hesitated a little. By the time they came back to their senses, most of the guests had already left.
The guests who were still in the manor either had to delay for a while because of unexpected situations or they were thick-skinned enough to stay behind to see if they could find a chance to collaborate with the Hill Family for the sake of their family or their company.
The guests who wanted to cling to the Hill Family naturally placed their attention on Mr. and Mrs. Huo. They knew that these were Miss Hill’s adoptive parents who would definitely be able to get involved with Miss Hill. Therefore, they planned to start with the Huo Family. Even if they couldn’t directly get
involved with the Hill Family, they would be able to pull some connections with the Huo Family and gain some benefits through them.
Coincidentally, Mr. and Mrs. Huo had also arrived at the door. They were only two to three steps away from Huo Tian, who was sending guests off. The remaining guests wanted to see the scene of the two parties chatting happily and saying their goodbyes, but they didn’t expect to be disappointed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTo everyone’s surprise, seeing that the number of guests at the banquet was decreasing, Huo Tian seemed to feel that there was no need for her to maintain a polite attitude towards the remaining guests. Her gaze swept coldly past Mr. and Mrs. Huo, who were not far from her, and then as if she saw two
insignificant strangers, she directly passed by the two of them. She held Si Huan’s arm and turned to leave.
On the other hand, Ding Chen, who was on the other side of the door to send the guests off, sneered rudely when he saw this scene.
‘When Mr. and Mrs. Huo’s gazes landed on them, Ding Chen said mockingly, “Mr. and Mrs. Huo, the two of you are really surprising. I thought that the two of you were too ashamed to meet people. Who knew that the two of you would be so strong-willed that you stayed at the banquet for such a long time?
Your composure is really admirable.”
These words came out of nowhere and left people puzzled.
However, although everyone did not understand the meaning behind this, they could tell that Ding Chen’s attitude towards Mr. and Mrs. Huo was extremely unfriendly. The guests who had wanted to gain benefits from the Hill Family through the Huo Family all stopped in their tracks. They could not help
but consider passing on chatting with the Huo Family.
They secretly guessed in their hearts. What was the relationship between the Hill Family and the Huo Family? Why did Miss Hill and the young master of the Huo Family seem to have a close relationship as siblings, but she ignored Mr. and Mrs. Huo, who were her adoptive parents? Why did Mrs. Hill take
such good care of Huo You, while Mrs.. Hill’s younger brother was being sarcastic to the Huo Family’s couple? It really puzzled outsiders like them…
