Chapter 42 I don’t like what you do

The school anniversary was buzzing on hot searches for another two days, and then the popularity gradually subsided.

As the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, Huo Huaizhou returns to his old home.

The Huo family's old house is located in the suburbs of Haizhou, where the Huo family has lived for generations.

The house is huge.

The high-rise buildings of the pavilion are beautiful, the reliefs in the gallery are lifelike, and the antique courtyards of all sizes are located in the old house. The pavilions, pavilions, carved beams and painted columns are majestic and magnificent.

As the head of the Huo family, Huo Huaizhou does not live in the old house as usual, but he will come back once a month.

He doesn't live here, but he actually knows everything about the house.

People in the old house knew that he was coming back today. The housekeeper Li Yongjiang had been waiting outside the house for a long time. When he saw him walking quickly, he lowered his head slightly and called out: "Mr. Huo."

Huo Huaizhou's expression was dull: "Where is mother?"

"Madam is listening to a play at Luming Tower." Li Yongjiang said, "She asked you to go find her when you come back."

"Ah."

There were servants coming and going in the house. After seeing him, they all stopped and lowered their heads to call him the master. The air was filled with the fragrance of osmanthus. Huo Huaizhou stopped suddenly and raised his eyes to look at the trees full of osmanthus.

Li Yongjiang looked along his line of sight: "Mr. Huo?"

Huo Huaizhou's eyes were as dark as ink and bland: "Ask someone to pick some fresh osmanthus flowers."

Although he didn't say it carefully, Li Yongjiang knew what he was going to do with it, and he lowered his head slightly: "Okay, sir."

The extent to which the Huo family's power extends is unimaginable.

Therefore, of course, the girl brought back by the head of the family cannot escape the investigation and spies installed by the old house.

Lao Zhai knew everything about Jiang Wanzhi, and knew her schedule very well. Some time ago, she and her husband went to her grandmother's house to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and Lao Zhai also knew everything.

The head of the family doesn't like it, so he can't do this openly, he can only do it behind the scenes.

Most of the people in the old house are feudal and their cognition is stuck in the past. They think that celebrities are just actors who are manipulated by the chaebol. They will sell themselves out for a little money. They look down on actors and think that actors cannot be on stage and cannot have anything to do with the Huo family. Any contact.

Although Li Yongjiang doesn't think so, he is shackled in the old house and cannot express his true thoughts. Occasionally he feels that the old house is oppressive and suffocating, but there is nothing he can do about it.

Prejudices are so deep that it is difficult to eliminate them.

The sound of opera singing was heard in the distance.

Huo Huaizhou walked into Luming Tower. Many people were listening to the play. When they saw him, they stood up quickly: "Master."

At the table in the middle, a graceful person wearing a cheongsam waved to him with a smile. She was Zhou Yun, Huo Huaizhou's mother, and the person who managed the old house when Huo Huaizhou was away.

"Huaizhou, come and sit."

Her voice was smiling, not as stern as usual, but really like a mother who was happy that her son was home.

Huo Huaizhou's expression was calm. After he sat down, others took their seats one after another.

The servant poured him tea, and the heat rose. With the sound of opera in his ears, Huo Huaizhou took a sip of tea and said, "Mother, are you looking for me?"

The tone was so light that it didn't sound like a mother and son.

The opera covered the two people's voices, and only each other could hear them.

"What's going on with Huo Qi?"

Huo Huaizhou said tepidly: "Don't mother know?" The inside and outside of the old house could not escape her eyes.

The smile on Zhou Yun's face became even bigger: "I know, you should have done this a long time ago."

But her smile faded slightly: "But I also heard another thing. You are too reckless and impulsive."

People around him didn't dare to make a sound, and they didn't dare to express their anger in front of the two people who actually held power.

"The injury on Huo Qi's face was caused by you," Zhou Yun said, "It was because of that woman. You are the head of the Huo family, so you are too reckless."

Huo Huaizhou's hand suddenly stopped.

He raised his head, his eyes sharp and cold. The air pressure around his body dropped a bit, and the air was filled with coolness, as cold as winter.

"Mother, you stretched your hand too far."

He was warning, blaming her for putting all her eyes on him.

The smile on Zhou Yun's face disappeared instantly: "I am your mother, and everything I do is for your own good. The Huo family has a great business. Do you know how many people are watching you?"

Huo Huaizhou sneered: "Is mother worried about me, or is she worried that I will marry someone you can't control and take away the Huo family property?"

"You are contradicting me." Zhou Yun narrowed her eyes, "For that Jiang Wanzhi?"

The atmosphere suddenly became condensed and chilly.

Huo Huaizhou put the cup on the table leisurely. He was obviously emotionless, but he felt a clear coldness: "Mother should know that I am the head of the family and I am in charge of the Huo family."

After finishing his words, he raised his eyes and said every word with a sense of oppression: "I don't like what you do."

His whole body was filled with unknown danger, his eyes were as dark as a deep pool, and the sinister bird of prey and endless abyss hidden behind his gentle and elegant appearance made Zhou Yun's heart slightly lifted and her hands tightened.

Huo Huaizhou stood up and looked at Zhou Yun condescendingly, his expression as calm as ever: "I'm going to leave first, so as not to disturb mother's performance."

There was silence all around. Although I couldn't hear what the two people were talking about, judging from their expressions, they didn't seem to be talking well.

There are no secrets in the house, and the estrangement between the family head and Zhou Yun has long been spread among private individuals.

But there was an undercurrent between the two men in power, and they had neither the qualifications nor the courage to inquire.

If you want to be protected by the Huo family, the less you know, the better.

Huo Huaizhou returned to his house.

He had to have a meal before leaving at noon. He sat in the living room on the first floor to rest. The servant served snacks and tea. He took a book and looked down at it.

Li Yongjiang walked in. He has been a housekeeper in the old house for nearly 30 years. He knows that there are many people living in the house, and there are many right and wrongs. People are deeply separated from each other. On the surface, they appear to be a family. In fact, they are deceitful and do whatever it takes for their own interests. of selfish desires and unlimited greed.

He had a good relationship with Huo Huaizhou when he was young. Unlike ordinary housekeepers, they could occasionally say a few words in front of him.

Huo Huaizhou didn't raise his head. He knew who was coming and said in a calm voice, "What's wrong?"

"I heard that Madam seems to have selected a few girls of good match for you. She is going to invite them to the house recently to see their personalities and choose the best ones."

Li Yongjiang stopped talking and hesitated for a while: "So I think if you have a girl you like in your heart, you should take it back to the old house and show it to your family. If your wife knows your attitude, she may not insist on your own way. "

He was referring to Jiang Wanzhi.

The entire old house knew that he protected people closely, but they were surprised why he didn't bring them back to the old house.

After all, the old house is the foundation of the entire Huo family.
