Chapter 567: 569 Making a Mistake (8)_1
Huo Jinnan stood there, not making a sound.
Qin Moting glanced back, "You guys go ahead, Ji Yan and I will hold them off here."
Huo Jinnan was about to leave with Che Huan when the old master looked towards them, "Jinnan, Huanhuan, if you’re not busy during the Mid-Autumn Festival, come and join us for a reunion dinner."
Upon hearing this, the old lady eagerly looked towards Che Huan.
Che Huan thought about the conversation her mother had just had with the Qin family’s old master and seemed to have an uneasy feeling, but she didn’t want to refuse outright and looked at Huo Jinnan.
Huo Jinnan gave a faint smile, "If we’re not busy during the Mid-Autumn Festival, we’ll come over to visit."
As soon as he finished speaking, he looked in Wen Ru’s direction, "Mom, Huanhuan and I will head back first."
Wen Ru looked at Huo Jinnan and Che Huan with a smile, "You guys go ahead."
It seemed that mom had something she wanted to discuss with the Qin family’s old master and old lady. Che Huan glanced at Huo Jinnan and followed him to the black Bentley parked not far away.
Once in the back seat, Huo Bei started the car.
Just after turning a corner, they saw a black Huiteng.
The old master sat there, put away his binoculars, and closed his eyes, "Uncle Guan."
Uncle Guan didn’t make a sound. Sensing that the old master was in a bad mood, he quietly started the car. After glancing in the rearview mirror, he saw the old master indeed close his eyes in fatigue.
Back at Huo Mansion.
As soon as the old master entered, he looked at the empty house, where he was now the only one. Then he thought of the lively scene of the Qin family standing together earlier, and his heart was filled with an unpleasant feeling.
Uncle Guan guessed what he was feeling and stood silently behind him, not uttering a word.
After a while, the old master turned to look at Uncle Guan, "Qin Mochuan has really washed his hands off this matter clean!
Uncle Guan didn’t say anything, just lowered his head.
"Let him suffer in jail for a while."
"Yes, old master."
The old master looked at Uncle Guan, gripping his cane, feeling utterly weak, "How is Jinyun doing?"
Uncle Guan dared not look at the old master’s face, "She is still the same, incoherent, talking all sorts of nonsense."
The old master thought of the "nonsense" Ayun mentioned and suddenly lost balance in his steps, staggering a few times, "Other than the assessment, don’t let anyone see her, especially the second young master."

Nanyuan Villa
Huo Jinxue had been watching a TV series, but when she saw Che Huan enter, she turned off the TV and walked towards the staircase.
Huo Jinnan saw her and called out coldly, "Huo Jinxue!"
Huo Jinxue paused in her steps, turned to look at Huo Jinnan, Che Huan, and Zhong Qin, feeling a moment of grievance but managing to muster a forced smile, "Second brother, second sister-in-law, mom, you’re back?"
Huo Jinnan looked at her with deep eyes, his voice devoid of warmth, "If you’re unhappy and feel aggrieved living here, then go live somewhere else."
Huo Jinxue stood there, her eyes widened in disbelief, looking at Huo Jinnan for a while, then turned to Zhong Qin.
Zhong Qin smiled and pulled out a set of keys from her bag, handing them to Huo Jinxue, "Axue, it’s inconvenient for you and Abei to be living here while your second brother and sister-in-law are newly married. Here’s a house I bought outside, one bedroom and a living room, you and your third brother can live there first."
"..."
Huo Jinxue took the keys. Fine, she’d move out!
Seeing her expression, Huo Jinnan said in a low voice, "Go pack your things now."
"..."
Huo Jinxue looked at Huo Jinnan, not expecting her second brother to rush her out like this!
Fine, she’d leave!
Aggravated, she went upstairs and began packing her things as soon as she got back to her room.
Hearing the sound of a door being slammed upstairs, Huo Jinnan looked at Zhong Qin and Che Huan, "I’ll go upstairs and have a look."
Once upstairs, and reaching Huo Jinxue’s room, he closed the door firmly behind him, stood there and lit a cigarette, "It was you, wasn’t it?"
