Chapter 399: 401 Play with excitement (6)_1
Che Huan watched his retreating figure and sighed with relief.
Her instincts were right; this man still loved Aunt Zhong.
Seeing the expression on his face, it seemed he had guessed something. If it wasn’t him, who could have exchanged their heart with hers?
Could it be the Huo family patriarch?
Thinking of what Huo Bei had said, she stood there, frowning slightly.
If that was really the case, although Gu Jizhou was his great-grandson, Huo Jinnan was his grandson. Why would he do such a thing to him?
She was somewhat perplexed!

Huo Qichang drove back to the Huo Mansion in a hurry, not caring about red lights, running through several along the way.
Upon entering, he looked at Uncle Guan, "Where’s my father?"
Uncle Guan noticed Huo Qichang’s abnormal complexion, "The old master is in the study..."
Before he could finish, Huo Qichang had already ascended to the second floor, heading straight for the study.
Pushing open the door, he burst into the study.
The old man was reading a book, feeling a draft of cold air being brought in, which brushed against him. Looking up, he saw Huo Qichang standing there, staring at him intently. He frowned slightly, took off his presbyopic glasses, and placed them aside, "When did you become so reckless?"
Huo Qichang stared at the old man for a long while, feeling as if something was squeezing his chest, gasping for air in waves.
The old man sensed something was off with his complexion, put down his book, and asked in a deep voice, "What’s happened?"
Huo Qichang gradually calmed down, "Dad, Jizhou has been taken away, and Jinyun..."
The old man closed his eyes, interrupting him, "If he’s been taken away, then so be it. It’s time he learned his lesson. Don’t get involved."
Huo Qichang looked at his father, and a chill crept over his heart. Jizhou had made bigger blunders before, but he had never seen his father so indifferent.
It must be that, over the years, his father had found a compatible heart. Now, only that could control Anan, right?
Even if he asked, his father would never admit it.
After standing for a while, he said softly, "I see," then left the study.
Behind him came the old man’s voice, "Qichang, I know you are worried about Xiaoqin..."
Huo Qichang felt dazed and didn’t clearly hear, nor did he want to understand. He returned to his room, locked the door, and in an instant, the room became dim.
He dared not turn on the light or draw back the thick curtains, fearing to see the heart that once lived for a long time within Xiaoqin’s chest.
In his lifetime, the person he loved the most and wronged the most was Xiaoqin.
Thinking of this, he closed his eyes, struggling to breathe.
After a while, he calmed down, the words Che Huan had said to him surfacing in his mind, suddenly his gaze turned sharp.
A remarriage agreement?
If it was given by father to the third son of the Qin Family, there definitely wouldn’t be such an agreement.
As for Jinyun, who hated Che Huan and her daughter to the bone and saw them as thorns in her side, she would never make such a request.
Thus, it could only have been Jizhou.
So, Jizhou was involved, too?
Thinking of this, he felt a chill in his heart.
Over the years, he had raised Jinyun as if she were his own daughter and cared for Jizhou even more than his own children, always considering Jizhou’s best interests. Is this how Jizhou repaid him?
He picked up his phone and made a call, "Follow Uncle Guan closely these days and watch his movements."
After hanging up, thinking of Qin Mochuan and Fang Tong, one wanting to marry Anan and the other desiring the Qin Family’s power, it seemed they would be good to probe for information.
