âTake him to the ancestral hall. Donât let him out until heâs reflected on his actions. Otherwise, he wonât be going to school or work.â
âYes, Master Huo.â
Huo Qi approached Huo Ningxi and said with respect, âYoung Master, this way pleaseâ¦â
âIâm not going!â Huo Ningxi opened his eyes wide and gasped for air like a distressed beast. âThis is a dictatorship!â he screamed at Huo Yunqueâs back as he walked away.
These words made Huo Yunque stop. He turned around with a smile. âDictatorship?â
âYes, thatâs right! The Huo Family has always listened to you. Whenever I do anything that you donât like, you lock me in the ancestral hall! Youâre so much older than Song Yaoyao, how do you know that she genuinely likes you and not your power and money?â
âAhemâ¦â Huo Qi was terrified as he quickly glanced at Huo Yunque and pulled Huo Ningxi out. âYoung Master, what are you saying? Hurry and apologize!â
âNo,â Huo Ningxi closed his mouth shut.
The power resonating from the man was like an earthquake pressing down on him.
Huo Ningxi felt nervous. He actually regretted what he said right after he said it, but he wasnât about to back down and apologize.
âHaââ
Huo Yunque waved his hand, gesturing for Huo Qi not to be so anxious.
He walked back and stood in front of Huo Ningxi.
Huo Qi let go of Huo Ningxi and retreated.
The powerful aura made Huo Ningxiâs heart tighten. His face scrunched up and his hands clenched.
âDonât worry, I wonât hit you.â
Huo Yunque patted his shoulder. âYouâve grown up. Since you refuse to listen to me, you should move out from today onward.â His lips parted as he calmly instructed, âHuo Qi, go pack his bags.â
âSmall Uncleâ¦â
Huo Ningxi was shocked. He didnât expect Huo Yunque to be so decisive.
The truth was, he did not actually think that Huo Yunque was a dictator. Although he was strict, he only did it for his own good. In Huo Manor, he had never mistreated him.
He felt bad on the inside. His throat twitched and he turned his head; he wanted to apologize but he had too much pride.
âDid you finally realize how good she is?â
This sudden question made Huo Ningxiâs heart sink. He pressed his lips together and slowly nodded his head.
At this moment, there was a slight chuckle.
âIndeed, sheâs really good. I really like her.â
After speaking, Huo Yunque turned to leave. His voice was deep and cold. âEven though you may be speaking the truth, I coincidentally have everything that she wantsâ¦â
Whether it was money, power, or status, Huo Yunque had all of it.
In this country, it was impossible to find another person who was more suited.
Moreoverâ¦
If she was after appearanceâ¦n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Huo Yunque wasnât narcissistic, but sorry, he also fitted the bill.
Master Huo, you are being too ruthless!
Huo Qi watched as Huo Ningxiâs face turned pale after listening to Huo Yunqueâs response.
He shook his head. This time, he really did start to pity him.
âYoung Master, letâs go.â
Huo Ningxi stumbled backward a little. Fortunately, Huo Qi held onto him just in time.
âHuo Qi.â
The youthâs voice sounded sad and helpless.
âDo you think Song Yaoyao genuinely likes Small Uncle?â
Huo Qi couldnât bear to tell him the truth. But just as he was about to open his mouth to respond, Huo Ningxi suddenly burst into laughter.
âForget about it. Why am I asking you this? You are one of his men. You will definitely side with him.â
âHuh?â
