Ye Jinfan was not angry when he heard Huo Xiaoxiao's rejection. He still smiled lightly and said, "Don't say it so early. Who knows what will happen in the future?"
Huo Xiaoxiao glanced at him and said: "Ye Jinfan, after Lu Yuchuan retreated, almost no one in the Lu family could be entrusted with big responsibilities. It is conceivable that the entire Lu family may be under your control in the future. If you are not satisfied with this,
Does it have to be windy and rainy?”
"What you said is a bit biased." Ye Jinfan said, "I am not the one causing trouble at this stage. Your second brother is constantly making little moves in private. Can I not guard against it? Can you not guard against it?"
Huo Xiaoxiao suddenly lost his words.
During her moment of silence, the phone at her hand suddenly rang. Huo Xiaoxiao answered the phone and when she heard what was said, her expression changed again.
Seeing her look like this, Ye Jinfan waited for her to hang up the phone and then smiled slightly, "Is there any bad news again?"
Huo Xiaoxiao came back to her senses and said lightly: "Nothing, I just received news that Huo Jinnan is back."
"Huo Jinnan?" Ye Jinfan raised his eyebrows slightly, "The German one?"
Huo Xiaoxiao responded lightly, "Yeah."
"I remember he went to Germany for many years, right?" Ye Jinfan asked.
"Yes." Huo Xiaoxiao said, "After graduating from high school, he went to Germany and was sent out by his second brother."
Ye Jinfan said with great interest: "But as far as I know, he seems to have a good relationship with your second brother?"
Huo Xiaoxiao sat back in his chair and fell into deep thought.
The relationship between Huo Jinnan and Huo Jinxi is more than good.
When Huo Jinnan's existence became known to everyone in the Huo family, Huo Jinxi immediately sent him abroad.
In the eyes of people at the time, Huo Jinxi was trying to eliminate threats for himself. After all, once Huo Jinnan recognized his ancestor and returned to his clan, he, who was close to Huo Jinxi in age, would definitely become Huo Jinxi's biggest competitor.
Huo Jinnan was a real thorn in the side, and everyone thought that there was bound to be a fight between the two.
But unexpectedly, Huo Jinnan stayed in Germany for more than ten years without any trouble.
Huo's subsidiary in Germany was originally managed by Huo Jinnan. Over the years, under the leadership of Huo Jinxi, the German company gradually became independent and was completely handed over to Huo Jinnan.
It can be seen that Huo Jinnan is someone trusted by Huo Jinxi.
Now, this person suddenly came back.
"Speaking of which, your second brother is really capable." Ye Jinfan suddenly laughed and said, "How did he manage to coexist peacefully with those two illegitimate children?"
Huo Xiaoxiao sneered and said, "I can't answer you on this point."
After all, judging from Huo Jinxi's cold and ruthless temperament, he would never treat two half-brothers in such a peaceful way, but he just did so and got along with the two people in extremely harmonious ways.
.
Let alone outsiders, even Huo Xiaoxiao doesn't understand the reason.
"If you, the Huo family, don't even know, then no one except your second brother should know the answer." Ye Jinfan said, "So Huo Jinnan came back this time to help your second brother, right?"
Huo Xiaoxiao was a little upset and did not answer his question.
In fact, no one among them can guess what Huo Jinxi has planned now. Therefore, although Huo Jinnan does not pose any threat to her, she will inevitably be affected by the relationship between Huo Jinxi and Huo Jinnan.
Relationship and a lot of thinking,
"Have you ever counted how much help your second brother has?" Ye Jinfan asked again, "Are you sure you still want to fight alone?"
Hearing this, Huo Xiaoxiao raised her eyes to look at him again. After a long time, she slowly said: "I said, except for official matters, there is no need for us to join forces again."
Ye Jinfan suddenly spread his hands, shrugged and said with a smile: "Okay, you have the final say."
…
Since becoming pregnant, although Mu Qian can still run, jump, eat and sleep without any pregnancy symptoms, she is still forced to take a nap by Huo Jinxi, and that day was no exception.
This day is the same.
Fortunately, Mu Qian has become accustomed to this kind of schedule. When the time comes, she goes to bed obediently and sleeps for two hours before getting up again. The sun is shining outside.
Huo Jinxi left a message on her phone, telling her that he was out, but Mu Qian didn't care. She got up and cleaned herself up briefly before going downstairs.
As soon as she reached the stairs, Mu Qian heard Huo Qiran's voice coming from downstairs. She was in a daze for a moment before she remembered that today was Friday and Huo Qiran was already out of school at this time.
She hurriedly went downstairs to comfort the little guy, only to find that he was sitting with Lu Yuchuan.
An old man and a young child were holding a book together. Huo Qiran was reading aloud. When he read an unknown word, he suddenly turned to look at Lu Yuchuan, "Grandpa, what does Chunhua Qiushi mean?"
"Blooms in spring and bears fruit in autumn." Lu Yuchuan sat behind him and explained to him warmly, "This word has three meanings. One is a metaphor for the causal relationship between things, and the other is to praise a person.
People’s literary talents and virtues, and thirdly, also refer to the passage and changes of time. In this passage, what do you think it means?”
Huo Qiran suddenly realized, "I understand, it refers to the causal relationship between things."
Lu Yuchuan smiled and touched his head and said, "How smart."
On the stairs, Mu Qian slowly walked down after listening to a conversation between the two people.
"Mom!" Huo Qiran heard the voice, looked up and saw her, and immediately said, "Grandpa came to pick me up from school today. We went to the bookstore together and bought new books!"
After hearing this, Mu Qian nodded slightly to Lu Yuchuan and said, "Sorry to trouble you."
"It's rare that I'm here today," Lu Yuchuan said, "It's even rarer that you can leave Qi Ran to me with confidence. It's not too late for me to be happy."
"Mom, grandpa knows a lot of knowledge! Grandpa knows every question I ask!" Huo Qiran said.
After hearing this, Mu Qian paused for a moment and simply said: "Then you should learn more from grandpa in the future."
Huo Qiran immediately nodded seriously, then pulled Lu Yuchuan along and said, "Grandpa, let's continue reading."
Lu Yuchuan responded, but his eyes were still on Mu Qian, "Are you hungry? Are you thirsty? Do you want to eat something?"
"This is my home." Mu Qian said, "I can take care of myself."
After hearing this, Lu Yuchuan was still not angry, but just nodded and smiled slightly.
At this moment, he suddenly heard a beeping sound, like an alarm bell ringing.
Mu Qian and Huo Qiran both looked at him. Lu Yuchuan then took out a timed medicine box from his pocket and said with a smile: "Yuanyuan prepared this for me to remind me to take medicine. Qiran, wait until grandpa finishes eating."
Is the medicine good?"
Huo Qiran nodded obediently.
Lu Yuchuan made a gesture to get up. Mu Qian bit her lip and said, "Sit down and I'll pour you some water."
After Lu Yuchuan heard this, he suddenly laughed and sat back on the sofa, "Okay."
Mu Qian walked into the kitchen, poured a glass of warm water, tested the temperature, walked to Lu Yuchuan, and handed it to him.
"Thank you." Lu Yuchuan put the medicine into his mouth, took the water in Mu Qian's hand, took a sip, and swallowed the medicine.
However, by accident, he choked and couldn't help covering his lips and coughing.
Seeing this, Mu Qian quickly reached out her hand and patted his back.
Lu Yuchuan coughed twice, and when he noticed Mu Qian's movements, he couldn't help but pause and raised his eyes to look at her.
Mu Qian was stunned, then suddenly took back her hand and turned her face away.
Lu Yuchuan's face broke into a smile again.
Mu Qian rolled her eyes at him again, then picked up the medicine box he put on the table and began to study it.
Lu Yuchuan felt even happier when he saw this, and turned around to continue reading with Huo Qiran.
It was rare for three generations to sit together quietly in such a harmonious manner. Lu Yuchuan was in a good mood, but Mu Qian didn't know what he was thinking.
It wasn't until Huo Qiran finished reading a chapter and got up to go to the bathroom that she finally turned to look at Lu Yuchuan, "You said before that you would change the things I don't like hearing and seeing. Is that true?"
"Of course you can doubt me." Lu Yuchuan looked at her and replied, "I will prove it to you with actions."
Mu Qian paused for a moment, then said again: "Then do you think this is enough?"
"What do you mean-" Lu Yuchuan waited for her to continue.
"Have you ever thought about who Yuanyuan will marry in the future?" Mu Qian said suddenly.
Lu Yuchuan listened and smiled lightly, "It doesn't matter, as long as she likes him, as long as he is reliable."
"What if...I mean what if, she likes someone with a good family background?"
When Lu Yuchuan heard this, he couldn't help but pause for a moment, and then said: "You mean-"
"I said, I'm just in case." Mu Qian said, "Besides, even if you take a step back, if Yuanyuan falls in love with a young man from aristocratic family or an upstart tycoon, do you think the other party will not care about the reputation of the Lu family?
"
Lu Yuchuan naturally knew what the Lu family's reputation was in Tongcheng.
Even if there are many famous families who have good relations with the Lu family, they only do it for the sake of the Lu family's growing momentum in the past two years, and the word reputation is indeed not a good word for the Lu family.
In the past, he was not around, but now, he actually doesn't care.
But Mu Qian brought it up and pulled out Lu Yuan.
After a long silence, Lu Yuchuan said slowly: "Dad, I understand what you mean. I should indeed do a little more... No, I should do a lot more. As long as my daughter is happy, I can do anything."
Mu Qian still had a cold face and replied expressionlessly: "It's also to accumulate blessings for yourself."
Lu Yuchuan chuckled lightly and raised his hand to touch Mu Qian's head.
Mu Qian stopped being awkward and was about to get up to avoid it when she suddenly heard the sound of a car coming from outside.
She sat motionless for a while. When she looked up again, she saw Huo Jinxi leading a man in.
The man was about the same age as Huo Jinxi, about the same height, and even had a somewhat similar body shape, but his temperament was completely different.
