Chapter 134: Visiting the Huo Family
The upper circle of Ningcheng is more complicated than that of Liaocheng, and for historical reasons, the change of power between those big and wealthy families has always been talked about.
The Bai family is a good example.
The contemporary ruler of the Bai family is a careless person, except for his wife at home, there are many lovers outside. However, the mother of the Bai family is a ruthless person, except for the children she gave birth to, those lovers are almost never pregnant.
Huo Junheng naturally understood this, he was shocked, poured a glass of wine, and asked what was going on.
The people around listened attentively to the gossip.
"It is said that Bai Yueguang of the Bai family was secretly born, and he is one or two years older than the current Bai Dashao. β
The crowd was in an uproar, talking to the people next to them.
Only Huo Junheng frowned in disgust, 'Bai Yueguang' was originally a very beautiful word, but because of what happened to the people around him, he was not sensitive to people like 'Bai Yueguang'.
Huo Junheng diverted the topic and lost interest in the Bai family's affairs.
"I heard that the one from Liaocheng came to us, and I don't know what to do. Sitting next to Huo Junheng was a handsome young man, who shook his head with his legs crossed and followed the rhythm of the music.
Huo Junheng knew that he was talking about Gu Tingjiao, so he didn't answer.
Who knew that the boy poked him, "Brother, why don't you speak?"
Huo Junheng moved to the side and waved impatiently at the young man, "Don't pester me, I remember they didn't call you, right?"
Fang Canjun looked at him innocently, "When you came out, it happened that Yueyue called her aunt and said that you wanted to come out, so let me come over to find you." β
Huo Jun held his forehead with constant anger, he was most annoyed by his mother's two younger siblings, who had been pestering him like kraft candy since he was a child.
Fang Canjun and Fang Canyue are a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, and they are the children of Huo Junheng's aunt's family.
Huo Junheng didn't care about his cousin on the side, and went to drink with his friends, leaving Fang Canjun to sit alone in place.
Luo Jiuxia slept not very peacefully, probably about to see the Huo family, she had been dreaming.
Gu Tingjiao was still asleep beside him, Luo Jiuxia quietly looked at the time, it was only four o'clock in the morning.
Luo Jiuxia counted the man's eyelashes boringly, but the man opened his eyes in the next second.
Luo Jiuxia shrank back in fright, "You didn't sleep?"
Gu Tingjiao still had a deep sleepiness, scooping people into his arms, and the subwoofer's voice was very sexy.
"You're the same as the Earth Dragon, tossing and turning, what do you say?"
Luo Jiuxia obediently nestled in his arms, stretched out his hand and patted his back, "Then you sleep, I won't move." β
Gu Tingjiao's chin rubbed against the top of her head, "You can't sleep?" because of the Huo family?"
Luo Jiuxia sighed, "Almost, it's just that I suddenly don't know how to face it." β
"Don't be afraid, with me. Gu Tingjiao's voice was very gentle, and Luo Jiuxia closed his eyes with peace of mind.
Luo Jiuxia opened his eyes again, took out a certain chaotic hand, and threatened: "Don't mess around, the sky is about to dawn." β
Gu Tingjiao is not very sleepy at the moment, "Since you can't sleep, let's do exercise." β
Luo Jiuxia kicked the person out of bed, "Get out." β
Luo Jiuxia would never have allowed Gu Tingjiao to come at this time, and he rushed to Gu Tingjiao to clean up as soon as it was dawn.
Gu Tingjiao worked hard to accompany Luo Jiuxia to work, and then at noon, he came to the door of the Huo family's mansion.
Luo Jiuxia looked down at his mobile phone and found that the call to Huo Junheng still didn't stop, and the housekeeper of the Huo family was almost in front of them.
Gu Tingjiao hugged Luo Jiuxia's waist, "Take it easy, the Huo family is not a man-eating tiger." β
Luo Jiuxia gave him a blank look, and the housekeeper warmly invited the two of them in.
In the living room, an anxious old lady asked her wife, "What do you think of my clothes?
The old man snorted twice, "Beautiful, not messy, you've asked several times." β
The old lady looked at him with disgust, "I don't know who went to flip through perfume in the middle of the night." β
The old man's face was red, and he sat upright, looking at the door without squinting.
Huo Tao, who was on the side, sighed, remembering his niece's calm and self-contained appearance, hoping that the two old men would not be too excited and frightened the child.
"What about Xiao Heng?" Huo Tao asked his wife.
Han Shujing whispered, "I'm still sleeping, I played too late last night." β
Huo Tao's face darkened, and when he saw Luo Jiuxia and Gu Tingjiao coming in, he swallowed the reprimand that came to his lips, and stood up to greet them with a smile.
Luo Jiuxia held Gu Tingjiao's hand tightly, and the palms of both of them were wet with sweat.
Luo Jiuxia saw Huo Tao first, and then turned his gaze to the old lady who looked excited, and the old man who pretended to be calm.
This was the first time Luo Jiuxia had seen these two old men since he grew up.
"Jiuxia, come. Huo Tao hurriedly brought the two in, "Parents, this is Jiuxia, this is Jiuxia's fiancΓ©, Gu Tingjiao." β
After Huo Tao finished introducing, Han Jingshu looked at her excited in-laws, pulled out a smile, and hurriedly went over to support the second elder.
"Mom and Dad, don't get excited, butler, where's the medicine?" Han Jingshu was worried about the second elder's body, so she specially prepared the medicine, and then received her husband's appreciative gaze.
Luo Jiuxia looked at the two old men who were really thin and weak, and his heart trembled.
The old man coughed a few times, but the old lady didn't care about it, and kept staring at Luo Jiuxia stupidly.
Suddenly, the old lady burst into tears.
Luo Jiuxia was suddenly at a loss, and she subconsciously glanced at Gu Tingjiao.
Gu Tingjiao clenched her hand tightly and said comfortably, "Grandpa, grandma, it's the first time we meet, I'm Gu Tingjiao." β
Gu Tingjiao took the initiative to say hello and relieved Luo Jiuxia of the siege, which made her breathe a sigh of relief, she was indeed a little embarrassed.
Fan Xiangyi looked at Luo Jiuxia, who was at a loss, and took out a handkerchief to wipe her eyes.
"Eh, good boy, come and sit, old man?" Fan Xiangyi looked at the old man who still wanted to cough, glared, and motioned to the other party to stop.
Huo Lang retracted a lot, and ripples appeared in his old eyes.
"Jiuxia, come over and let grandpa take a look. β
Luo Jiuxia finally took the first step, "Grandpa is good, grandma is good." β
The old couple must take some medicine now.
Indeed, as Huo Tao said, the two old men were indeed in poor health, and Luo Jiuxia and Gu Tingjiao stood aside and watched them take a bunch of medicines.
Fan Xiangyi looked at Luo Jiuxia with a loving look in her eyes, "Scared, right? β
Fan Xiangyi looked at the appearance that looked like her premature daughter, and her eyes began to red again.
Huo Lang's strong style has followed the old man all his life, and his tone softened by three points in the face of Luo Jiuxia.
Luo Jiuxia was not so at a loss and found her own rhythm.
She put aside the gifts she brought, and accompanied the two of them with Gu Tingjiao to talk about family life.
Several people sat around the living room, and the atmosphere gradually relaxed.
They tacitly agreed not to mention the blank ten years in the middle.
