The sunlight was blocked behind him, forming a deep halo.
Cao Fang and Cao Yuan followed him on either side, with the air of a head of household, composed and unhurried.
Old Master Huo sat down leaning on his cane, picked up the freshly brewed tea, and said, "Why has Ah Zheng returned"
"I came back to grab some things, but it turned out the house was quite lively." He scanned the crowd, accepted the tea handed to him by the maid, and casually sat down.
The seat was right behind Fu Yan's, separated by one person. His breath was unrestrained, like a thorn in Fu Yan's back.
"Jing Shu, you speak," he said. He lifted the cup lid without looking up, nonchalant and noble, yet his aura was oppressive.
Huo Jingshu, who was called out, felt a shiver of fear. "Second Brother, it's a misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding" Huo Mingzheng seemed to smile, glanced at the whip in the maid's hand, and said with a cold voice, "Since you're going to use corporal punishment, it seems the misunderstanding is very deep. Tell me about it."
"Family matters are what I will handle, and have nothing to do with being quiet and docile. She is a victim, so don't frighten her," Old Master Huo spoke up.
Ho Mingzheng put down his teacup, neither lightly nor heavily. He rested his right elbow on the armrest and turned to Old Master Ho: "You spoil her too much. I just wanted her to tell the truth, how did that scare her"
"Second Brother, I was mistaken. Someone sent me a stack of photos this morning. I saw Fu Jing appearing at Fu Yan's house, and my heart surged with anger and jealousy. I was blinded by jealousy and caused this misunderstanding."
Huo Jingshu started to sob as she spoke.
She has always been prone to crying, especially when faced with Huo Mingzheng's sternness. Her tears would flow uncontrollably, and she would speak in a choked voice the moment she opened her mouth.
"Hold back your tears!" Huo Mingzheng's face turned cold.
Huo Jingshu choked back a sob, tightly clamping her lips shut. Tears welled up in her eyes.
Du Xiner felt extremely distressed, "Azheng, why do you help outsiders and not your own people Jing Shu is your cousin!"
Ho Mingzheng said leisurely, “I remember the family motto of the Huo family: anyone who enters the Huo family is a member of the Huo family, regardless of closeness or distance. Aunt Four, am I right”
Du Xiner's whole body stiffened. She had married into the Huo family for over twenty years, and she had only seen the family rules when she first entered the door. Every year during the ancestral worship, the steward would recite the family rules, but she never listened. Over so many years, she had long since forgotten them.
"Seems like he doesn't remember." Huo Mingzheng chuckled, a smile that didn't reach his eyes.
Old Master Huo's face darkened. Where would Du Xinrui remember any family rules However, he had served as the head of the Huo family, and the content of the family rules was all too familiar to him.
These words were veiled reminders to him that he was favoring and indulging Huo Jingshu's wrongdoing.
"Everyone makes mistakes, let alone Jing Shu liking Fu Jing. In matters of the heart, she tried to find her limits. It's understandable for a young girl like her." He spoke up himself, which was also a way of giving her a step down.
Who knew Huo Mingzheng would kick the stage in front of everyone, saying, "Today we lost our composure because of a single photo. Tomorrow, if we wrongly accuse others without understanding the situation, how will outsiders view our Huo family Will we raise an ignorant fool who cannot distinguish right from wrong"
Old Mr. Huo's face darkened.
Ho Jing-shu, who had been called an idiot, pursed her lips and dared not speak out.
Fourth Master Huo immediately stepped forward, "A-Zheng, Jing Shu is young..."
"Fourth Uncle, don't be hasty. According to age, Fu Yan should call her sister, and she has the right to bully the younger."
Fu Yan was taken aback.
Fourth Master Huo didn't expect to be slapped in the face by Huo Mingzheng on the spot.
The Huo family has five sons. The eldest son is in politics but doesn't concern himself with family affairs. The second son, Huo Mingzheng, whose father was a renowned professor at Nandu University, also stays out of family matters. The third brother currently holds an important position in the military and it's not convenient for him to appear.
