Chapter 1159: Chapter 1172: Something Fishy (Part 3)
Xiaoqi lay quietly in Ye Bai’s arms, nursing while staring intently at Ye Bai.
Her eyes were exceedingly pure and beautiful, with long eyelashes fluttering like those of a doll.
Ye Bai’s heart was about to melt from being stared at; she wondered whether to find a man to father a child or go somewhere to acquire a genetically superior seed and have a child herself.
Finding a man seemed quite troublesome; it might be simpler to purchase from an international website where she could choose, rejecting any with poor genes. Moreover, her father would likely agree.
...
The next day, Wen Hua and Bi Fu came to see Qin Huan and the child.
Noticing Huo Jinnan’s eyes covered with bandages, Wen Hua looked at him, "What happened to your eyes?"
Huo Jinnan replied softly, "I had surgery; they will recover in two months."
Seeing that his complexion was normal, Wen Hua thought it would be fine in two months and didn’t ask further, turning to Qin Huan, "Huanhuan, how are you feeling? Have you recovered?"
Qin Huan looked at Wen Hua, "Uncle, I’ve improved a lot, and feel almost nothing now."
Wen Hua nodded, "That’s good."
Bi Fu watched Qin Huan, "Huanhuan, you must not neglect your health; ensure to get enough rest."
Qin Huan looked at Bi Fu, "Aunt, don’t worry about me."
Seeing the situation today, it was apparent that the Huo Family treated Huanhuan well, which was truly unexpected.
Bi Fu glanced over but refrained from further cautioning; Huanhuan had endured hardships for so many years, and it seemed like her tough times had finally ended.
When Xiaoliao and Xiaoqi woke up, Wen Hua and Bi Fu each carried them for a while.
Watching Qin Huan and Huo Jinnan walk out, Bi Fu turned to Wen Hua, "Old Wen, I want to have a grandchild too; how about you?"
Wen Hua looked at Xiaoliao and Xiaoqi, full of affection, though thinking about Wen Nuan and Qin Shaojin—
Why does he feel he doesn’t want to look at their children at all?
...
After lunch and chatting for a while, Wen Hua glanced at the clock on the wall, "We should be going, Huanhuan, your aunt and I will visit you and the child another day."
Huo Jinnan called out, "Uncle Lu."
Uncle Lu quickly approached, "Sir."
Huo Jinnan spoke in a low voice, "Ensure my uncle and aunt return home safely."
Uncle Lu acknowledged and went out to prepare the car.
Wen Hua and Bi Fu stood up and left.
Qin Huan and Huo Jinnan escorted them out.
Two hours later, Uncle Lu was not yet back; Huo Jinnan’s lips pressed into a thin line, and he turned towards the old master, "What time is it?"
The old master glanced at the clock in the living room, "It’s three o’clock."
Huo Jinnan frowned.
The old master gripped his cane, noticing Huo Jinnan’s expression wasn’t right, "They say the left eyelid twitch signifies wealth, while the right signifies calamity. I’ve been having a twitch in my right eyelid, making me uneasy; I hope there hasn’t been trouble."
Huo Jinnan remained silent; after being quiet for so long, they should be impatient by now.
That day, Huo Bei mentioned that news of his blindness had leaked.
Whether it’s the Wu Family or the Xiang Family, today obviously presented an opportunity!
If they don’t seize this moment to overthrow the Huo Family, when else will there be a chance?
He looked at the old master, gradually drawing in a chill around him, "Grandfather, call Uncle Lu."
The old master made a call, but there was no answer, raising his concern.
He looked at Huo Jinnan, "Clearly something has happened."
Huo Jinnan sat there, his demeanor composed but cold, "Mm,"
The old master, slightly irritated by his steadfastness, turned to Guan Shu, "Check Wen Hua and Bi Fu’s phone numbers."
"No need, I have them."
Huo Jinnan interjected, retrieving his phone from his pocket, powered it on, unlocked it with a fingerprint, and handed it to the old master.
