Huo Chengshang laughed and no longer spoke.

Qiao Jingyan furrowed his brows. In fact, even he couldn't believe what he had just said.

His little brother had an eccentric and domineering temper. His actions were unexpected, and he cared so much about Xiao Xi. It wasn't strange that he would do this for the sake of avenging Xiao Xi.

"Slut Qi, you actually dared to slap my face. I'll fight it out with you, ah ?" Huo Jianjia was so angry that he grabbed the pillow on the sofa and wildly threw it at Qi Song.

Qi Song was extremely wronged, she had clearly slapped her own face, okay?

Seeing that Huo Jianjia was getting more and more excited, Qi Song was speechless, he took the chance and grabbed her wrist, and stared at Huo Jianjia while pretending to be big: "Huo Jianjia, don't blame me for not reminding you, if you dare to smash this grandpa again, this grandpa will be serious!"

"I'm afraid of you!" Huo Jianjia pulled back his hand, raised the pillow and slapped it towards Qi Song's face.

Caught off guard, Qi Song's face was slapped a few times, becoming extremely angry, "Aiyo, I'll go ?" He rolled up his sleeves and said, "If I don't teach you a lesson today, I will write my name backwards."

"Enough!"

Seeing the two becoming more and more different, Huo Chengshang frowned and shouted.

The two people who had been preparing to press down on each other became well-behaved at the same time.

Huo Jianjia tossed the pillow on top of Qi Song's body in anger, then obediently crawled up from his body and sat at the side.

Qi Song leaned on the sofa, pretending to be dead.

Huo Chengshang was furious, "If you don't want to always be lying down and not moving, then sit properly!"

Qi Song suddenly jumped up from the sofa and looked at Huo Chengshang pitifully as if he were a wife hugging a pillow.

Huo Chengshang's forehead suddenly jumped, "Have you forgotten what we're doing here today?"

"?" Qi Song and Huo Jianjia lowered their heads at the same time, but they were still staring at each other in a way that Qiao Jingyan and Qiao Jingyan could not see.

Seeing that the two had quieted down, Huo Chengshang's tense face finally loosened a bit.

At this moment, the screams of the women on the second floor suddenly stopped.

Huo Chengshang and the rest all raised their heads at the same time to look at the second floor.

He saw Leng Feng walk down from the second floor with a few doctors and nurses.

Qi Song stood up and looked at Leng Feng, "How is Uncle Lan?"

"?" Leng Feng glanced at Qi Song, could it be that the one they should be concerned about the most isn't that girl?

"Miss Lan is very emotional. She is looking for death. I just gave her a tranquilizer. Elder Lan is upstairs with her." the wind said.

Qi Song nodded and returned to his seat.

The cold wind let the other doctors and nurses leave first while it stayed behind.

"Is Uncle Lan doing well?" Huo Jianjia asked.

Leng Feng frowned, but did not say anything.

Huo Jianjia sighed in his heart.

He already knew the answer. It would be strange if his granddaughter, who had grown up in the palm of his hand, would encounter this kind of situation.

After thinking about it, Huo Jianjia stood up and walked out of the villa as he said this, "Uncle Lan hasn't eaten anything all day, I'll get the kitchen to prepare some food for Uncle Lan to send up."

Huo Chengshang and the rest did not say a word, although they knew that even if the kitchen was prepared with food, Lan Qian would not eat it.

But before Lan Shan could walk out of the living room, a tall black voice carried a cold wind and walked in.

Lan Shan was startled, "Brother."

Huo Chengshang's brows twitched, as he looked over.

Huo Yaoting, who had an extremely stern and cold expression on his black overcoat, walked in from the door.

Huo Yaoting did not look at them. His pitch black eyes looked at the cold wind deeply, "How is Uncle Lan?"

"?" The cold wind was drunk again as he pursed his lips, "Uncle Lan is not in a good mood right now."

Huo Yaoting frowned, he stayed where he was for a while, and then walked towards the second floor spiral staircase.

"Boss ?" The cold wind stopped him just in time.

Huo Yaoting looked at him.

"Boss, when I came out, elder Lan told me to tell you that he doesn't want to see anyone right now." The cold wind said.

Huo Yaoting frowned even more, he turned, walked to the front of the sofa and sat down. His face had a clear message, he did not ask Lan Shan about the situation.

Qiao Jingyan looked at him, then stood up, "There's still something else, notify me immediately if Uncle Lan has any news."

"Second brother, you're leaving?" Qi Song looked at Qiao Jingyan.

"Yes."

After Qiao Jingyan finished speaking, he left the villa without looking back.

Huo Jianjia went out to get the kitchen to prepare something for him to eat before returning to the living room. Seeing Huo Yaoting's cold expression, he bit his lips and carefully walked to the sofa beside him to sit down.

Huo Yaoting glanced at her but did not say anything.

Huo Jianjia didn't know what to say for a moment, and remained silent.

The people in the living room sat as they stood. After an unknown amount of time, the sound of a door opening came from the second floor.

Huo Jianjia and Qi Song immediately looked up, and saw Lan Qian walking out of his room, and immediately stood up. "Uncle Lan."

Huo Yaoting's eyes were deep and serene. He slowly raised his head and looked at Lan Qian, who was hobbling down the second floor.

Destined that Lan Qian did not take out his walking stick, Huo Yaoting stood up and walked towards him, with a big palm holding onto one of Lan Qian's arms.

Lan Qian's body clearly stiffened for a moment, as his face that had turned ten years older suddenly turned towards Huo Yaoting.

Huo Yaoting did not seem to notice the stiffness in his body. She pursed her lips and calmly looked at him.

Lan Qian's lips moved, she suddenly laughed in grief and drooped her head.

Huo Yaoting looked at the old man's wrinkled face from the side, his thin lips pursed even tighter as he helped Lan Qian walk to the sofa and sit down.

Huo Yaoting did not sit down, his hand in his pockets as he stood beside Lan Qian.

Huo Chengshang looked at Huo Yaoting and stood up as well.

At this time, other than Lan Qian, everyone else in the hall stood up.

Lan Qian's head drooped, as though he had lost his life force. An old man who had gone through many vicissitudes of life, time passed by very quickly on his body.

Huo Yaoting lowered his head and looked at Lan Qian's white hair, his eyes blinking.

He was not someone who liked to explain. At this moment, as he looked at the injured old man, he also opened his mouth, "Uncle Lan, whether you believe me or not, I ?"

"Yaoting!" Without waiting for Huo Yaoting to finish speaking, Lan Qian cut him off, her voice sounding extremely tired.

Huo Yaoting smiled calmly as he stared at Lan Qian with the engravement in his eyes.

Lan Qian slowly raised his head, what appeared in everyone's eyes were the old man's pair of blood red eyes and his pale lips, "Uncle Lan, Uncle Lan apologized for Shan Shan Shan and Xiao Xi. It was Shan Shan's fault. But Yaoting... "

Lan Qian looked at him, her eyes filled with pain. "Uncle Lan has never done anything to you that I can't afford to do, Uncle Lan has always seen you as a close relative, so I can't, I can't do it on behalf of my old man, on account of me, a pitiful old man ?"

"Uncle Lan." The corner of Huo Yaoting's lips suddenly curled up, the deep black in his eyes was so thick that not a single thread of light could be seen. He stared at Lan Qian's face, which had veins popping out of his chest due to excitement, and said, "Different from your granddaughter, Xiao Xi, who was raised by you personally, didn't get much love from you.

"?" Huo Yaoting's words caused everyone, including Lan Qian, to gasp slightly, because they knew that this man was truly angry.

Lan Qian held onto the walking stick with trembling hands, "Yes, Shan Shan pushed Xiao Xi first, but she was in the wrong. I never thought of protecting her and protecting her. You can beat her and scold her, and I won't feel sorry for her at all. That's what she deserves. However, this kind of punishment is too cruel for a twenty-one year old girl who has never been in a relationship! "

The back of his hand was covered in flesh, and right now, Lan Shan and Ye Xi were only his only family, he protected both of them in pain.

He agreed that he was going to be punished for his mistakes, but he was heartbroken that he should destroy a young girl in such a cruel way.

Thinking about how he rushed to the hospital this morning and saw Lan Shan lying unconscious on his sickbed, with wounds all over his body and not a single part of his skin intact, it was as if his heart was being ruthlessly stabbed by a sharp blade.

She was only twenty-one after all!

She's still a child!

Even if he had made a mistake, why couldn't he just give her a chance to repent? Why must he punish her with such a cruel way? How could she continue to live on?!

"Cruel?" Huo Yaoting's handsome face darkened, "If she knew how cruel this is, she wouldn't have treated Xiao Xi like this back then. Uncle Lan, regardless of whether I did this, I feel that she deserves it.

"You ?"

"Uncle Lan, think of your daughter, think of your daughter Lan in the underworld!"

After throwing those words down, Huo Yaoting left the villa without even turning his head back.

When he stepped out of the villa with his front foot, Lan Qian's figure shook violently and he fainted.

When Lan Qian fainted, the villa fell into chaos once again.

Huo Chengshang and Qi Song immediately brought Lan Qian upstairs, with Leng Feng following with the first aid kit.

Huo Jianjia anxiously looked at the second floor, then looked at the entrance of the living room, before gritting his teeth and rushing out.

Huo Jianjia ran out of the villa and saw Huo Yaoting leaning on the carriage as he smoked.

"Brother ?" Huo Jianjia walked over, and looked at his cold and hard face from the side, and asked carefully, "Brother, are you alright?"
