Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Do Mom and Second Brother hate Huo Jinyun that much?

Che Huan saw the look on her face and reached out to smooth Huo Jinnan’s shirt collar, ”Jinnan, go upstairs and rest. I’ll watch a TV drama here for a while.”

Huo Jinnan glanced at Huo Jinxue, his voice chilling, ”If she can’t stand it, she can go live somewhere else.”

Huo Jinxue sat there, knowing that Second Brother was talking about her!

She hadn’t expected Second Brother to just say something like that.

When Zhong Qin heard this, she looked at Huo Jinxue and noticed the expression on her face. She thought about how, for all these years, the old man insisted on keeping Abei and Axue in the old residence, fearing that these two grandchildren would also grow distant from him, and apparently it worked. Axue had been living outside the house recently, but deep down she still cared about her grandfather, her father; Zhong Qin could see it.

”Axue, come here, come to my room.”

Huo Jinxue did not speak but stood up and followed her.

Che Huan hesitated, then turned to Huo Jinnan, ”Jinxue is still young—”

Huo Jinnan spoke in a low voice, ”When I was young, my grandfather and my father always used to say the same thing, that Huo Jinyun was still young.”

Che Huan looked at Huo Jinnan, certain that Jinxue must have done something else to anger him.

She gently pushed Huo Jinnan’s arm, ”Go upstairs. I will go check on Mom.”

Huo Jinnan looked down at Che Huan, his hand resting on her face, and rubbed heavily a few times, ”If she throws a tantrum, don’t be polite with her. You are the lady of this house.”

Che Huan smiled sweetly, ”I know.”

Huo Jinnan ran his fingers through her hair and went up to the second floor.

As Che Huan approached Zhong Qin’s room, she heard Huo Jinxue’s voice inside.

—”Mom, Big Sister has become foolish, and Gu Jizhou has been put away too, and it seems like Second Brother still wants to deal with them. In the end, isn’t it all because of Second Sister-in-law, isn’t it all because she used to be Gu Jizhou’s wife?”

Zhong Qin said sharply, ”Axue, what are you talking about!”

Huo Jinxue muttered softly, ”What I’m saying is the truth.”

Zhong Qin spoke firmly, ”Have you spent so much time with your eldest sister that you can’t even tell right from wrong anymore?”

”Mom, don’t you mind at all? To be honest, I feel weird about it. But Second Brother, he treasures her like a gem.”

Huo Jinxue turned her head away, disliking Che Huan more and more lately!

Zhong Qin looked at Huo Jinxue and slapped her in anger, ”Axue, I don’t want to hear you say such things ever again!”

Huo Jinxue didn’t speak, bowed her head, and sobbed with grievance.

Zhong Qin looked at Huo Jinxue, there were many grievances she did not want the children to know, but Axue’s way of thinking made her very angry.

After a long time, she spoke slowly, ”Axue, I don’t expect you to do anything dramatic in the future. I don’t care if you are wealthy or not, I just hope you can distinguish between good and evil and live your own life happily. Do you understand?”

Huo Jinxue did not respond.

Zhong Qin said heavily, ”Even if Huo Jinyun has become foolish, it’s not because your Second Brother drove her to it! Do you know how many lives she has on her hands? Do you know how many people have been torn from their families, lost their homes, their lives, because of her?”

Huo Jinxue remained silent.

Zhong Qin did not want to bring up that daughter of hers and Adong, and spoke with heartfelt emphasis, ”Your grandfather has indulged her for so many years. She dared to murder and set fires; do you want to follow in her footsteps?”

Huo Jinxue, with her head down, wiped her tears, ”Mom, I know I was wrong.”

Zhong Qin spoke softly, ”Go out.”

Che Huan, hearing the voices, quickly returned to the living room, sat down, and pretended to watch TV.
