“If the Huo Family can’t protect him, then letdo it. He’s a promising young man, but his father doesn’t even dare to make a sound when he’s being rumored to be like this on such an occasion. In that case, lethandle this matter.”

“Chief Lu, I’m sorry. I didn’t expect you to have such a deep relationship with my useless son.” Huo Qingxiao hurriedly stepped out to continue the conversation. Huo Jiuxiao’s father was not dead yet.

“That son of yours is so awesome, but I guess you don’t know either. Why don’t you let a few illegitimate children ride on his head and shit? I’m sure you know what happened today. I’ll say it here. If anyone here today talks about Huo Jiuxiao behind his back again, I surnamed Lu, don’t mind arguing with them.”

After listening to Elder Lu’s words, the guests present could not help but be shocked. This chief was even going against the person’s biological father, but he still wanted to protect him. It was obvious that he liked him very much.

They did not expect Huo Jiuxiao to have such great ability to make Old Chief Lu, who had been unwilling to enter the Xu family for decades, step forward for him.

Chief Lu’s aura was already out, so Huo Qingxiao didn’t continue to argue. He really didn’t know that Huo Jiuxiao had such connections.

After Elder Lu lost his temper, he started chatting with Elder Xu. He only glanced at Huo Jiuxiao from the corner of his eye.

Huo Jiuxiao chuckled and led Lin Wanli forward. He didn’t know about today’s fate, but he had a lot of contact with the national security in the early years. It was true that this old man had taken a fancy to him and wanted to take him as his own, but he didn’t agree. He also did not expect that the joke from back then had always been kept in Elder Lu’s heart.

“When I saw you a few years ago, you still looked like you were about to die. Now, you’re feeling alive?” Old Master Lu looked at him sideways.

“I’m married, Elder Lu.” Huo Jiuxiao replied.

At this moment, Elder Lu could see the mature and steady side of him. Although he was less wild, he felt more capable.

“Then this girl must be a monkey to be able to kidnap you.” Old Lu teased Lin Wanli, “No matter what, if the Huo Family continues to be like this, then cand change your surnto Lu. The doors of national security are always open for you. When the tcomes, the first one to investigate is the Huo

Corporation.”

“That’s not that bad.” Huo Jiuxiao replied.

Huo Shengyuan was not far away. Seeing Huo Jiuxiao easily get the protection of powerful people, he was so jealous that he went crazy. Because he needed to constantly pull out small tricks to be presentable. However, Huo Jiuxiao didn’t even need to do anything. A bunch of people were already surrounding him. He didn’t even think about why Elder Lu liked Huo Jiuxiao so much. There was no such thing as good karma in this world.

The other guests could only keep their mouths shut when they saw Chief Lu’s attitude.

Did the gossip claim that Huo Jiuxiao was a cripple?

In fact, there were many smart people present who could tell that this little trick was played by Huo Shengyuan. Because Huo Jiuxiao had returned to the Huo Family and was pressing him step by step, he was already a great threat to him. Didn’t he need to go around hurting Huo Jiuxiao to stabilize his reliable position in the hearts of others?

It was a very despicable move, but it was enough to disgust people. As expected, no one stood on Huo Jiuxiao’s side today. Then, his goal had really been achieved.

Everyone said that the second young master of the Huo Family was outstanding and well-rounded. He was an outstanding elite and would eventually surpass his master. But now, it seemed that Huo Jiuxiao’s existence, and the deaf version of Huo Jiuxiao, had greatly stimulated Huo Shengyuan.

Soon, the venue was filled with guests, and it was also tfor the annual birthday gift segment. In this regard, although Xu Jingzhi hated his father, he still gave him a gift every year, which was basically a model that he had just learned. They were either weapons or sophisticated vehicles, but he had never seen Father Xu open them.

Perhaps Xu Chonglou was also disappointed in his son. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have publicly praised those who gave him gifts that made him happy every year.

Actually, Elder Xu’s gift was not easy to give because he did not accept expensive things. He only cared about the heart, but this heart was precisely the most difficult to give. Everything in this world that could be used for money was very simple, but where did the old man lack these things?

Soon, the juniors of the Xu family sent their congratulatory gifts one after another. Sof them personally made Chinese tunic suits, swrote poems, and ssent pottery and flowers. The variety could be said to cover all aspects.

Huo Chengyuan followed behind and gave out the artwork that he had painstakingly found, which was the artwork of the famous artist that Elder Xu liked. It was the most thoughtful gift because the artwork of that famous artist was almost extinct, so it was not something that could be measured by money.

Elder Xu really liked it, but he didn’t keep it. Instead, he put it on display and enjoyed it with the people in the hall. At first, everyone thought that he was really satisfied with Huo Shengyuan’s gift and wanted to invite everyone to enjoy it. However, after everyone was done admiring the painting, he asked someone to put the painting back into the brocade box. Then, he said to Huo Shengyuan, “Uncle Xu has received your kindness. But I can’t accept the painting.”

It would take a lot of money just to find such an extinct thing, not to mention how shocking its value is now. Elder Xu couldn’t sleep or eat in peace with such an object at home.

“But…”

“Shengyuan, you knowthe best. I really like the painting. After seeing them today, I’m happy and have opened my eyes. But love doesn’t have to be taken for its own. It should go to a place where its value is reflected.”

“I understand, Uncle Xu. I’ll send someone to send the painting to the museum later.” Huo Shengyuan said generously.

The painting was very expensive, and Old Master Xu was very fond of it.

Everyone could not help but sigh. The most popular person in front of Old Master Xu was Huo Shengyuan. If Xu Jingzhi wasn’t there, everyone would have thought that Huo Shengyuan was Elder Xu’s son. Because to outsiders, the two of them were like father and son.

At that moment, although Huo Shengyuan had lost hundreds of millions of yuan, he was still in a good mood. Because he knew that his method was very popular with the old man.

On the other hand, Huo Jiuxiao didn’t move. Huo Chengyuan wanted to tell Huo Jiuxiao that srelationships were feelings that accumulated over tand could not be casually compared to others.

At this time, Xu Jingzhi’s mother did not want Huo Shengyuan to gain a monopoly on all the attention, so she asked Xu Jingzhi, “What about you? You didn’t prepare a gift for your dad?”

Xu Jingzhi crossed his arms and shook his head. He said mockingly, “There are so many people doing filial piety for me. I won’t waste my effort. I cempty-handed like the Huo Family’s eldest brother.”

Mother Xu’s face stiffened. A hint of embarrassment and anger appeared on her face. “How rude!” She scolded.

“Then isn’t Big Brother Huo rude too? How can a junior cempty-handed?”
