Chapter 273 - 273: I Look Down On Every Illegitimate Child Equally

“What happened to Second Brother?” Huo Zizhen drank her fruit juice and asked Huo Weichen, “Why is he acting so abnormally after Deaf came back?”

Huo Weichen came out of the water and lay on the shore with water droplets all over his body. He panted and asked Huo Zizhen, “Aren’t you afraid?”

“What am I afraid of?”

Huo Weichen snorted coldly with a hint of mockery. He turned around and dived back into the water, leaving Huo Zizhen rolling her eyes speechlessly.

Soon, it was lunchtime at the Huo’s residence, and everyone was in place on time. Huo Shengyuan also vacated the spot that originally belonged to Huo Jiuxiao. Everyone moved down a little. The discomfort was like a turtle’s hard shell that had some impurities squeezed into it.

Huo Jiuxiao had taken a shower, but he hadn’t changed his clothes. His hair was more casual, and his expression was more irritable. This world-weariness expression made everyone at the table marvel.

“Which one of you took the limited edition Audemars Piguet from my closet?” Huo Jiuxiao picked up the cutlery and asked the people at the table.

The siblings looked at each other. In the end, it was Huo Zizhen who put down his knife and fork. She looked at Huo Jiuxiao and said, “Big Brother, I was young and insensible at that time. I entered your room and broke your watch.

You wouldn’t hold it against me over such a small matter, would you?”

“That’s a birthday present from my mother.” Huo Jiuxiao looked at her sharply.

“Then I can’t help it. It’s already broken. I’ll compensate you with an identical one, okay?”

At this moment, Huo Jiuxiao lazily adjusted his sitting posture and asked her, “It’s just like when you went to the hospital for an abortion last week. Will you still be the same body after the operation?”

When everyone at the table heard this, they looked at Huo Zizhen in shock. Even Huo Zizhen herself was stunned.

‘You went for an abortion?” Yun Shujing almost screamed as she asked. “Big Brother, this is my personal matter!”

“Then what about my personal property?” Huo Jiuxiao retorted, “I remember you looking down on every poor person equally. Coincidentally, I look down on every illegitimate child equally. Premarital pregnancy is indeed something that people like you would do. After all, you inherited that.”

When Huo Zizhen and Yun Shujing heard this, they almost lost their composure. Yun Shujing, in particular, had to endure the anger in her heart until her knuckles turned white. After all, who in the entire Huo family could make them suffer? Other than Huo Jiuxiao, there was only Huo Jiuxiao!

He had only been back for a few hours, yet their blood pressure had already risen. He was indeed very capable.

“The news that the old man arranged a ‘poor woman’ for me has spread throughout the Huo family, right? But even if she is poor, you still have to respectfully call her ‘Sister-in-law’.”

“Then, everyone will have a bright future in the future.”

Huo Zizhen couldn’t refute Huo Jiuxiao in front of her family, so she could only put down her cutlery and leave angrily. Illegitimate child, these two words were like a bright red brand that would burn their bodies from time to time. However, they could not refute it because it was the truth.

Huo Weichen looked at his evil sister and smiled. He was thick-skinned enough to not care about his identity as an illegitimate child. He just felt that every meal in this family would probably be very interesting in the future. As for Huo Shengyuan, he had to observe Huo Jiuxiao from time to time. Sometimes he was confused, sometimes he frowned, and so far, he had not spoken to Huo Jiuxiao.

As for Huo Qingxiao, he pretended he didn’t see anything and wanted his son to show his power.

Everyone in the Huo family had thought that Huo Jiuxiao would be the one who

had been ostracized when he returned home. After all, he had not returned for many years and was disabled. However, the Huo siblings still did not have the upper hand. They were firmly suppressed by the words ‘illegitimate child’.

After dinner, Huo Jiuxiao went downstairs with the butler following behind him.

“There’s nothing I can wear at home. I’ll give you my size later. You can fill up my wardrobe in a day.”

“I’ll go out on time for my three meals. If there’s nothing special, don’t bother me upstairs. If there’s anything, send me a message.”

“Also, Butler, taking sides isn’t something a smart person should do. I can allow you to be biased towards the people you’ve lived with for many years, but it’s only limited to your heart. Once you do something because of that, you’ll be courting death. I’ll send you to see the fish in the high seas.”

Huo Jiuxiao turned around and went upstairs.

The butler quietly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and supported his weak legs.

They hadn’t seen each other for ten years. Although Huo Jiuxiao wasn’t in the Huo family, he was definitely not crippled. It was as if he could see through people’s hearts and wouldn’t give others the slightest chance to avoid him. Especially when they looked into his eyes, it was as if there was an eye in his heart.

The butler felt a little scared and put away his little thoughts. From today onwards, he would firmly assume a neutral position.

It was scary to offend both sides, but if he did his job well, the old master would protect him.

On the fifth floor, Huo Zizhen was pacing back and forth in her room. She had suffered a great loss the moment Huo Jiuxiao returned.

She had handled her matters so discreetly that no one else in the world would know about it. Why did Huo Jiuxiao know her whereabouts like the back of his hand? Could it be that Huo Jiuxiao had sent someone to follow her? After guessing, Huo Zizhen shook her head again. That was impossible. Huo Jiuxiao didn’t have the time to do that.

But what went wrong?

After Yun Shujing finished taking care of Huo Qingxiao, she quietly went to

Huo Zizhen’s room. She glared at her and scolded, “Why are you so careless?”

“Mom, you know what I’m like. Why ask?” Huo Zizhen sat down on the single-seater sofa in frustration.

“The past is the past, and the present is the present. We all think that Deaf is easy to bully, but what about the truth? The word ‘illegitimate child’ is enough to make you siblings unable to move. In the future, he won’t be lenient when he snatches things. During this time, you should be more obedient, especially you and Weichen. Don’t be so indulgent. Let’s find out his background first.” Huo Zizhen felt very upset, but she did not know how to vent.

“What’s the name of his fiancée?”

“Lin Wanli, what do you want to do? This is the person your father likes. Don’t move.” Yun Shujing warned her sternly.

“It’s not like I’ll lose a piece of meat if I bully her a little. Don’t worry, I know my limits. I’m going out for a few days to relax.”

Downstairs, Huo Jiuxiao was sitting at his desk, sending a message to his little sweet wife.

“Ah Li, there’s a piece of trash at your door. Be careful and check carefully.”

Lin Wanli chuckled when she saw it.

“Huo Zizhen?”

“My little sweet wife has always been smart.”

“Why is she here? Doesn’t she think that the air in Jinchuan is not noble enough?” After Lin Wanli replied, she thought for a while and continued, “Don’t worry. I will definitely clean up the trash that comes to my door to prevent it from polluting the environment.”

“Not only do I have to clean up, but I also have to… make use of it..”
