Chapter 428: A Family Joke
Yan Xiaoran smiled. “In my opinion, you’re much more reliable than them.”
Su Yayan smiled but did not say anything. She only told Yan Xiaoran this because she was grateful to the two elders of the Lan family for helping Huo Chenhuan.
Yan Xiaoran was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lan family after all. Over the past few years, Master Lan had gradually handed over the Lan family’s company to Lan Minghan, and Madam Lan had also slowly given up her position as the Lan family’s matriarch. She and her husband lived a leisurely retirement life with the Old Master and Old Madam Lan.
At first, no one noticed that she had left the group, but now that they saw the two of them hiding in a corner and talking, they started to gather around.
In just a few minutes, there were five or six more people on their side.
They were here for Yan Xiaoran, and most of them didn’t know Su Yayan, so they didn’t dare to talk to her.
Su Yayan could tell what these people were thinking, and she was happy to be invisible.
She turned around and saw Huo Qihan and his wife and Huo Shaofeng.
This family of three was quite interesting. They came to attend someone else’s birthday party, and their faces were dark the whole time.
This was especially so for the father and son. They did not even want to look at each other, and their backs were always facing each other. If one did not know better, one would think that they were not father and son, but enemies.
With the two of them like this, Mrs. Huo, who was stuck in the middle, naturally did not fare any better. She looked at her husband and then at her son, looking like she did not know what to say.
A lady who wanted to curry favor with Yan Xiaoran but was unable to do so finally found a chance to speak when she saw Su Yayan staring at the family of three.
“Hey, aren’t those people from the Huo family? Why do they look like they’re fighting?”
The other women’s attention was instantly attracted. “The Huo family? The Huo family of the Huo Corporation?”
“Who else could it be?”
“Why are they here?”
Yan Xiaoran subconsciously glanced at Su Yayan when she heard someone mention the Huo family.
Seeing that there was no change in her expression, he said faintly, “Old Master Huo and our Old Master Lan have known each other since they were young. Today is Old Master Lan’s birthday, so we have to invite these people over to join in the fun.”
Seeing how cold she was, they knew that Yan Xiaoran disliked them.
Yan Xiaoran was the Young Madam of the Lan family and the future matriarch of the Lan family. Her attitude probably represented the attitude of the Lan family.
They looked at each other and immediately understood what kind of attitude they should have towards the Huo family.
“I heard that the young master of the Huo family was recently kicked out of the company by the senior directors of the Huo Corporation.”
“I heard about it too. Don’t you think it’s funny? The Huo Corporation was founded by Old Master Huo himself. Now, they have even kicked out their heir. If this were the ancient times of Ancient Earth, it would be like usurping a dynasty. If Old Master Huo were in heaven, he would probably be angered to death, right?”
“You can’t blame the directors of the Huo Corporation. Although the Huo Corporation is part of the Huo family’s business, it’s not only related to the interests of the Huo family. Which of these senior directors who received dividends didn’t want to earn a fortune just by sitting at home? Unfortunately, this Young Master Huo is a piece of mud that can’t be helped up.. You’ve all heard about the Huo Corporation’s piece of land, right?”
