Chapter 413: 415 Play with excitement (20)_1
It turned out that the heart transplanted into mother’s body was my eldest uncle’s.
So, that’s why Huo Jinyun disliked mother, constantly gave her a hard time and squeezed her out since the day she married into the family?
Mother silently endured, seeking to appease at the expense of her own dignity?
If it weren’t for my elder brother’s death, mother probably would have treated Huo Jinyun as her own daughter all this time, wouldn’t she?
Listening to Huo Jinyun’s breaths, light one moment and heavy the next, Huo Jinnan let out a cold laugh, "Am I and mother expected to feel grateful towards you? Sorry to disappoint you, big sister."
He was about to hang up the phone when an agitated voice came through the speaker—
"Give it to me straight, are you releasing Jizhou or not?"
Huo Jinnan lit a cigarette, his eyes dark as spilled ink, "Huo Jinyun, you’ve got it wrong, you should be asking the police that question, not me."
Huo Jinyun shouted angrily, "You’re not keeping your word!"
"What do you mean?"
"Tomorrow I will bring the agreement you personally signed to the hospital to find you!"
Huo Jinyun hung up the phone, her teeth almost crushed in rage, completely forgetting Uncle Guan’s advice from before.
The next day, she brought the agreement to the hospital and threw it in Huo Jinnan’s face, "Huo Jinnan, you steal your own nephew’s wife, and I haven’t said a word! Fine, you want Che Huan, that vile woman, then she’s yours! She’s just a tramp; if you want to wear her out, go ahead, but you shouldn’t be targeting Jizhou at every turn and pushing him into a dead end!"
Huo Jinnan stood there with a stern face, grabbing Huo Jinyun’s wrist tightly.
Huo Jinyun’s face turned pale from pain, "Huo Jinnan, I’m telling you again, Huo Jindong’s death has nothing to do with Jizhou. Either find evidence to put him away or stop hounding him like this without cause!"
"No connection?"
Huo Jinnan let out a cold laugh, staring at Huo Jinyun.
His piercing gaze made Huo Jinyun feel guilty and her voice dropped a few degrees from earlier, "If it wasn’t for the heart from my father that was transplanted into mother, where would you and your son be? Is this how you repay him?"
"Shut up!"
The old master stood outside the door, intending to enter when he heard the phrase "Huo Jinnan, you steal your own nephew’s wife..." and stopped in his tracks, stunned. He hadn’t expected Ayun to utter everything so recklessly. Pushing the door open, he struck Huo Jinyun across the face with his palm!
With a "smack," Huo Jinyun stood there, covering her face and turning to look at the old master, "Grandfather, you hit me!"
The old master didn’t look at Huo Jinyun, but towards Huo Jinnan, "Anan..."
"Get out!"
Huo Jinnan stood there, dressed in a black suit, half-hidden in the shadow of the light, his aura fully unleashed.
The old master wanted to ask about the truth of what Ayun had just said, but the words died in his throat, and he swallowed them back down as memories of the past flashed through his mind.
Jizhou’s bouts of jealousy—
That time he was bitten by the commander!
The Dragon Boat Festival!
The car accident!
His birthday feast!
...
All signs were clearly there all along; he just never expected the two of them to fight over a woman, let alone Che Huan!
The old master, leaning on his cane, felt waves of dizziness and suddenly collapsed.
Uncle Guan hurriedly supported the old master.
Huo Jinyun cried out in a strained voice, "Grandfather!"
The old master, rigid, was rushed into the emergency room by nurses who hurried over.
Before leaving, Huo Jinyun looked at Huo Jinnan, "Are you satisfied now?"
Huo Jinnan looked to Huo Bei, "Kick her out!"
Before Huo Bei could make a move, the commander had already pounced towards Huo Jinyun.
Huo Jinyun, terrified out of her wits, screamed and threw her purse at the commander, then turned tail and ran for her life.
