Chapter 893: Father and Daughter Indeed

“There’s no need to ask. My dear granddaughter definitely will not choose a d*mned old man like you either!” Huo Xiao’s eyes reddened from anger as he pointed at him angrily. “I’m advising you to leave now for your own good and to give you some face. Don’t embarrass yourself when the time comes!”

Su Xiyin did not know where he got his confidence from either, to think that Sheng Sheng would choose him. She believed that her granddaughter definitely would not abandon them and choose an outsider for any reason.

“Why? Does Brother Huo have that little faith in himself?” Upon seeing his exasperated look, Nangong Lun’s eyes were full of mockery. “If I take her away, it’s for her own good too. For her safety, my Nangong Family can give her what your Huo Family gave her a thousand times over.”

The Nangong Family had everything that others wanted even in their dreams. Money, power, reputation, and endless resources. They could get whatever they wanted.

What about his Huo Family? Even biological brothers could kill each other. Huo Ci had nearly lost his life back then. What else was this group of people like them be unable to do?

“You really can’t give her what my Huo Family can.” Huo Ci stood up lazily, his lips curling up coldly.

He had finally seen with his own eyes what it meant to become a thief in old age if one did not die[1]. The older the other elders grew, the cuter they got. But for him, the older he grew, the more annoying he became!

Where had he gotten the confidence to ask the brat at home to make a choice? She would definitely choose to stand on their side. He still possessed this bit of confidence!

When Ling Sheng was called out, she was still a little dumbfounded. Hadn’t they wanted her to avoid their conversation? Why had they called her back in the end?!

“Grandpa, Grandma, Father.” After Ling Sheng greeted them one more time, she smiled politely at Nangong Lun and called out, “Old Master Nangong.”

“Is this the upbringing of the Huo Family?” Nangong Lun frowned. For the first time, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Why? Was she unwilling to even call him Grandpa?

“She is from our Huo Family,” Huo Xiao was very satisfied and gave him a provocative look. You have a problem with that? Hold it in then!

Nangong Lun felt suffocated, holding back his anger from being rebuked. When he saw the girl holding Su Xiyin’s arm with a sweet smile on her face and whispering in her ear, his chest felt even more stifled.

“Uncle Nangong, what do you want to say and ask? Just ask away. She’s already here,” Huo Ci took a look at the brat. At least she was sensible. He had not raised her for half a year in vain.

“Ling Sheng, I’m your grandpa. I believe Ah Yan has already told you!” Nangong Lun went straight to the point. “I’m here to take you and your son home.”

“But this is my home!” Ling Sheng’s eyes looked confused, ignorant and innocent as she asked Su Xiyin softly, “Grandma, isn’t this my house? Where is he taking me?”

Su Xiyin patted her hand. “This is your home.”

Huo Ci could clearly see Nangong Lun’s face darken even more. His brat was someone with an angelic face but ruthless and decisive underneath; she even dared to play dirty with him. She probably wanted to anger the old man in front of her to death.

“Old Master Nangong, I’m sorry. I have to stay at home. I can’t leave with you.” Ling Sheng bit her lips in great embarrassment, looking even more innocent.

She was an actress! An actress!

Nangong Lun looked at the girl in front of him. According to the intel, she was very smart, but by the looks of her now, he somehow felt that she was a little silly. She had probably been brainwashed by the Huo Family. “You like acting? Do you want to enter Hollywood and become an international superstar? A superstar more famous than your mother?”

Ling Sheng nodded hurriedly. Of course, this was her ultimate dream. “But does this have anything to do with me returning to the Nangong Family?”

“Of course it does. As long as you return to the Nangong Family with me, I’ll give you the best resources, find the best manager or management company, and promote you to become a major world-class celebrity. Money, status, and supreme glory. You can have whatever you want.” Nangong Lun knew that as long as one had desires, they had weaknesses. As long as he offered her enough temptations, they could move her.

Before this, he had never seen her before, so how could he have any feelings for her? Playing the emotional card was a little too fake. He had always found it beneath him to do such things that went against his conscience.

Huo Xiao, who was listening by the side, got angrier the more he listened. If he had not been a guest, his words in front of his granddaughter would have been enough to kick him out!

He knew it wasn’t that the person in front of him had no heart, no feelings, or only had eyes for money and benefits. However, his heart and feelings were not with Sheng Sheng!

In his eyes, Sheng Sheng was just a toy that he was bringing back to make his precious daughter happy!

“Really?” Ling Sheng’s eyes were full of doubt and unconcealable excitement. “You’re not lying to me?”

Nangong Lun knew that if one wasn’t tempted, it was just that he did not have enough chips. Upon seeing the girl start to waver, he nodded. “Really. As long as you return to the Nangong Family, I’ll make your wish come true and give you everything you want.”

“But…” Ling Sheng was conflicted. She hesitated, her brows furrowing slightly as she puffed out her cheeks. She was adorable and lively. “But my father said that pies won’t fall from the sky[2]. If you want to succeed, you have to walk out one step at a time. Otherwise, it’ll be like building a pavilion on sand and carrying a pavilion. When a gust of wind blows, it’ll be gone. ”

Huo Ci could not help but suppress his laughter. He wanted to see what tricks she could pull. However, when had he said that?

“I’ll help provide all the help you need. No matter what you do, you’ll get twice the results with half the effort.” Nangong Lun looked at her seriously.

“Then I want to take the Little Golden Man (The Oscars), the Silver Bear (Berlin International Film Festival), the Golden Palm (Cannes Film Festival), and the Golden Lion (Venice Film Festival) awards next year. Can you do it?” Ling Sheng counted with her fingers. After saying that, she wanted to laugh herself. How could she be so evil? She was bullying an old lady!

Nangong Lun finally regained his senses. He knew that the d*mn brat in front of him was deliberately messing with him. A mouthful of blood choked in his chest. “I said I would provide you with everything you want. If you want to get those awards, you still have to work hard.”

How !

He had lived for so long, yet he had been tricked by a young chit of a girl who was still wet behind the ears!

“Tch, that means you can’t do it!” Ling Sheng pouted and let out a snort. “Who doesn’t know how to boast? My father even said he wanted to send me to the moon!”

Huo Ci could not help but laugh this time. He let out a low cough and put on a serious face. He had once wanted to send her to the moon. Get as far away from him as possible so that she wouldn’t bother him!

Nangong Lun could already be sure that the girl in front of him was messing with him. His face darkened and he held himself back until he could not breathe. Arrogant! Too arrogant!

The more he looked at her character, the more he felt that she was exactly like Huo Ci. They were indeed father and daughter!

No wonder he had not had a good impression of her the first time he had seen her. It turned out that she had not inherited the good things, but she had inherited from that scumbag father of hers!

“You must have caught wind of some rumors as well. How did your second uncle’s leg get broken?” Nangong Lun tried his best to suppress his fury. What an ignorant fool!

“But what does this have to do with me going back with you? What does it have to do with me? My father said he would protect me and not let anyone hurt me. If anyone breaks my legs, he will send them to the King of Hell,” Ling Sheng said seriously before looking at Huo Ci to seek confirmation. “Father, right?”

Huo Ci nodded with a loving expression. F*ck, when had he said that?

Huo Xiao looked at Ling Sheng arrogantly, feeling relieved at last. No matter what they had said, it did not create much damage on Nangong Lun. After all, a shameless person like him was invulnerable.

However, his good grandchild’s words still had a huge impact on him. Even if she did not anger him to death, it did not give him an easy time.

“Are you determined to stay in the Huo Family and not come with me?” Nangong Lun gritted his teeth and forced out a sentence. He had not expected her to have such strong feelings for the Huo Family.

Even if the Nangong Family had not raised her, what about the Huo Family? They had only interacted with one another for half a year! He truly did not believe that their relationship would be very deep.

“I…”

Ling Sheng had just finished thinking about how to rebuke someone when she was suddenly interrupted. Someone at the door shouted indignantly.

“Father!”
