Chapter 169 Huo Yunrui's teeth fell out
Huo Yunzheng brought Huo Ziyan back to Lishuiju and packed up some private dishes on the way.
The house was brightly lit, and there were cartoon New Year pictures on the floor-to-ceiling windows, decorations his wife had made on the morning of New Year's Eve.
At the dining table, Huo Ziyan ate
I ate with a much better appetite than when I was at the Huo family’s old house.
"I'm sorry, son. I made you spend the New Year in loneliness." Huo Yunzheng felt guilty. His eyes fell on the bump on the back of his head again, his eyes dark and unclear.
Huo Ziyan smiled heartlessly, "Dad, I feel happier at home. Although Mom is not here, she will be back in a few days, right?"
Huo Yunzheng nodded and said that his wife would be back from the Jing family on the third day of the Lunar New Year.
He didn't call Qiao Chuchu on video, for fear that she would be worried if she knew that they were father and son at home.
The Jing family should be a happy place right now, and she should celebrate the New Year with her family.
Holding the phone, on the screen was a WeChat message from his wife, asking if they had eaten and whether Zi Yan was being well behaved.
Huo Yunzheng replied a few words, and at midnight, he sent a voice message -
"Happy New Year, wife."
In the Huo family's old house, according to the custom of staying up all night to celebrate the New Year, no one went to bed at this time.
Huo Xiaonuan hugged her cat and glanced at Huo Qi and Huo Jiayuan sitting on the sofa. Both father and son could hardly suppress the smiles on their faces.
Huo Xiaonuan knew very well what her uncle was thinking. They certainly understood that her second brother's ability far exceeded that of any other member of the Huo family. Even if her second brother really severed ties with the Huo family, with his talent and her own Hua Ting, he would never fall from the altar.
Huo Qi and Huo Jiayuan have too big an appetite. They try every means to trip up their second brother in order to take over the Yunxi Group for themselves. Huo Qi is not satisfied at all with the little stake he has.
He wants too much.
Huo Yunzheng had a conflict with the old man, and the entire Huo family fell into a weird atmosphere.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Chen Xinru came with her parents to pay New Year's greetings.
Because of the marriage agreement between the two families, Mr. Huo had some complaints about Chen Xinru. Similarly, the Chen family also blamed the Huo family.
But after the new year, Chen Xinru will be marrying Huo Jiayuan, and the invitations have been sent out. Although Chen Zongzhi is dissatisfied with Mr. Huo, the other party is an elder, so he still brings his daughter over to go through the formalities.
His daughter will soon be the daughter-in-law of the Huo family. To maintain good relations now is also to pave the way for his daughter's future life in the Huo family.
Shengkai personally brought tea and snacks, holding Chen Xinru's hand with a loving look on his face, and said that when she got married in a few days, he would treat her well and love her like his own daughter.
Huo Jiayuan played the role of a good man today, peeling grapes for Chen Xinru and handing her tissues, deliberately performing for Chen Zongzhi.
Huo Jiachuan walked into the front hall and looked calm when he saw the people inside.
He heard about what happened at home when he was in the northwest.
"Brother, this is Xinru." Huo Jiayuan took the initiative to introduce.
Chen Xinru stood up, smiled and nodded, her eyes involuntarily looking at the man.
As the son of Huo Qi, Huo Jiachuan is much better than Huo Jiayuan. However, Huo Qi's eldest son has a bit strange personality. Huo Jiayuan is not very close to him and he is not an easy person to get along with.
Although he is more capable than Huo Jiayuan, Huo Qi prefers his youngest son when it comes to the degree of love he has for him.
"Brother Jiachuan." Chen Xinru greeted.
Huo Jiachuan hummed and sat down expressionlessly.
"Why is Yun Zheng not here?"
Chen Zongzhi deliberately mentioned Huo Yunzheng. He knew everything that happened in the Huo family last night. The spies he arranged were not there to do nothing. They reported everything to him, no matter how big or small.
Mr. Huo's expression suddenly became even gloomier, and the anger in his heart had not yet subsided.
Seeing this, Huo Jiachuan changed the subject.
"Has the wedding guest list been reconfirmed? Is there anything else you need to add?"
Huo Jiayuan said that he confirmed it repeatedly, and checked it again after sending out the invitations to make sure that no family was missed.
Chen Zongzhi glanced at Huo Jiachuan. He had heard that this man had a good relationship with Huo Yunzheng, and it was not a lie.
He was so protective of her even though Huo Yunzheng himself was not there.
"Jiachuan is not young anymore, it's time for him to get married. I have a cousin's daughter who just graduated from graduate school this year and works in Beijing. She is pretty, I can introduce her to you if there's a chance."
In the room, Huo Xiaonuan, as a guest, had been silent until now, but now she couldn't help herself.
"You want all the men in our Huo family to be the sons-in-law of your Chen family?" Huo Xiaonuan raised her red lips, with mockery and disdain in her eyes, "My fourth brother has high standards and strong abilities. Ordinary people are not worthy of his attention. Forget about him. Maybe even I, his sister, will look down on him."
The conversation was about Huo Jiachuan, but Chen Xinru could tell that Huo Xiaonuan was mocking her.
This Huo Xiaonuan, he has disliked her in every way from the beginning. Just wait and see, once she enters the Huo family, he will definitely teach this woman a lesson!
"Master, it's bad. Master Yun Rui is outside."
The housekeeper came in hurriedly from outside, looking very anxious, and said that Huo Yunrui was skateboarding outside, and somehow a car rushed over. Huo Yunrui couldn't dodge in time, fell down, and knocked out a tooth.
"What did you say? Your teeth fell out?"
Huo Shan jumped up from his chair, not even bothering to put on his coat, and went outside to check on his precious son.
Outside the Huo family residence, Huo Yunrui sat on the ground, covering his mouth. Next to him, Huo Jiaxing was almost stunned.
The incident happened so suddenly that she didn't have time to react before she saw Huo Yunrui bleeding from his mouth. His two big front teeth fell on the grass by the roadside.
"Dad, Dad! Mom——"
When Huo Yunrui saw Huo Shan and Shi Shi, he cried even harder, and his usual arrogance and domineering attitude was completely gone.
"My teeth—"
Huo Jiaxing watched from the sidelines, trying not to laugh.
Huo Yunrui's clothes were dirty, his mouth was bleeding, and he was crying loudly, it was so ugly!
"Jiaxing, did you see whose car it was?" Huo Shan's eyes were blazing with anger. His son was treated like this at the doorstep of his own home. If he were to catch the driver, he would make sure that the driver would be in big trouble!
There are not many buildings around the Huo family's residence, and there are only a few neighbors who might pass by here.
Huo Jiaxing shook his head, "I don't know, I didn't see it clearly, the car was driving too fast, it was like he was driving under the influence."
"Don't worry about whose car it is, just send your son to the hospital first!" Shi Shi urged.
Huo Shan helped his son up from the ground. Behind him, people from the Huo family and the Chen family of three followed.
"How is Yunrui? Is he okay?" Huo Qi's eyes showed a hint of anxiety and he stretched his neck to check the situation.
When Shi Shi heard his voice, she turned around quickly with a nervous look on her face.
You don't care when you should care, and why ask when you don't care?!
