This is indeed a good idea, but there is one downside: will it interfere with Huo Xiaosan's studies?

“He really loves football,” He Tiantian said. “It’s just that we don’t have any good football schools here. If we send him to a football school, it might affect his academic performance. If he can’t become a football star and his grades are still bad, he won’t have any means of making a living!”

"With so many assets, are you still worried about the future of our children?" Huo Yingjie asked curiously, at least Huo Xiaosan would be financially secure for the rest of his life.

“No matter how much material possessions we give him, they will eventually run out. If he is useless and squanders the family fortune, having a skill will allow him to survive.” He Tiantian does not believe that having money and property guarantees a worry-free life.

"Yes, you're right!" Huo Yingjie said. "He'll go to school in the morning and practice in the afternoon. Don't worry, I'll make the arrangements. If he really likes football, he'll definitely study hard according to our requirements so he can play."

"That brat has always been good at negotiating since he was little." He Tiantian said speechlessly, "Anyway, I'm leaving him to you. You can discipline your naughty son properly."

"Mhm." Huo Yingjie nodded. "I'm back now, so you won't have to worry about me."

When the car arrived at the school gate, He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie got out and waited at the gate.

Huo Ruihua led his younger brother, and Huo Ruimin led his younger sister. The four of them came out of the school and looked around to see who was coming to pick them up today.

Upon seeing this, Huo Ruimin exclaimed with delight, "Dad, Mom, look, Dad's home!"

Following Huo Ruimin's finger, everyone saw He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie.

The little tortoise was also very excited, but a little shy. I wonder if her owner will feel awkward seeing her like this?

Huo Ruihua and Huo Xiaosan were also very excited and ran over happily.

However, once she got to her father's side, Huo Xiaosan said angrily, "Dad, you said you'd give me a birthday present, but so much time has passed, you must have forgotten."

"I haven't forgotten!" Huo Yingjie smiled. "Dad was away on a business trip and couldn't come back until he finished his mission. Now that he's back, he's brought gifts for everyone."

"Is mine a football?" Huo Xiaosan asked. Just one question was enough for Huo Yingjie to be certain that Huo Xiaosan liked football, and liked it very much.

"Yes." Huo Yingjie patted his youngest son's head. "You have a football."

Although Huo Ruihua didn't speak, he looked at his father hopefully.

"You brought back your bullet sailboat too," Huo Yingjie said. He had asked Zhou Yuanchao to help him get it, and Xie Wu happened to bring it from his office today.

Seeing that his father remembered, Huo Ruihua nodded and said, "Thank you, Dad."

"What about mine?" Huo Ruimin looked at her father with starry eyes, hoping he would give her an unexpected gift.

Huo Yingjie smiled and said, "You have one too, but I can't tell you now. I'll give it to you when we get back."

"Ah?" Huo Ruimin became even more excited, eager to know.

At this moment, Huo Yingjie squatted down and hugged the little turtle, saying, "Is this our youngest daughter, Xuanxuan?"

Holding the little tortoise like this by its owner, it seemed a bit shy and timid.

"Mmm." The little tortoise nodded, not daring to look Huo Yingjie in the eye.

Huo Yingjie smiled and said, "Alright, let's not think about the past anymore. From now on, we're all family, and I'll treat everyone equally and I'll take good care of you too."

Upon hearing this, Little Turtle's eyes reddened, and it nestled in Huo Yingjie's arms and cried.

Previously, the little tortoise was bullied by other spirits and by her own kind. It was Huo Yingjie who saved her, gave her a stone body, and taught her cultivation so that she could transform into human form and enjoy the prosperity of the mortal world.

In Little Turtle's heart, Huo Yingjie was her master, her teacher, and now her father.

This change is really good.

Little Whirlwind Turtle never dreamed that such a wonderful thing would happen to her.

As expected, good deeds are rewarded. As a guardian deity stone statue of the river, she has blessed the local people for tens of thousands of years, accumulating good fortune, which is why she is now reaping the good results.

"Alright, stop crying. Let's go home, unwrap our presents together, and have a big meal," Huo Yingjie said with a smile, leading the child into the car.

Huo Ruihua and Huo Ruimin were very happy to see that their father had accepted Xiao Xuanxuan.

Although Xiao Xuanxuan was adopted, they always felt a sense of closeness to her, as if they had known her for a long time.

The children liked Xiao Xuanxuan very much, which helped her quickly integrate into the family.

The family got into the car, and Xie Wu drove very smoothly until they arrived home.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw Grandpa Huo, Grandma Huo, Huo Zhekun and his wife, and Huo Yingjie also came over with Xiao Jian.

Upon seeing his elders, Huo Yingjie quickly stepped forward and said, "Grandfather, Grandmother, Grandma Wang, Uncle, Aunt, Yingqi, Xiaojian, hello everyone, thank you for coming to welcome me."

"Hehe, this is a joyous occasion, of course we should have a proper get-together," Song Chunli said. "Xiao Jian, is your uncle amazing?"

Xiao Jian proudly said, "My uncle is amazing, but my aunt is even more amazing. My aunt is a world champion."

Scientists and military experts are positions that are very distant for Xiao Jian. He knows they are prestigious, but he doesn't know exactly how prestigious they are. But He Tiantian's world championship is different; that is Xiao Jian's goal.

He also wants to become a swimming champion and a world champion in the future.

He Tiantian laughed and said, "Xiao Jian is also very good. I met your coach a few days ago. He said you are improving very quickly and are very talented. So you should work hard, eat well, and grow taller."

Xu Jian, but he has changed his name to Huo Jian now.

Huo Jian was excited and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Auntie, I will work hard. I will participate in the junior group competition this October. Auntie, Uncle, Grandpa and Grandma, you must come and watch my competition."

"This is from the scene. Your aunt brought your older brother, older sister, younger brother, and younger sister to cheer you on," He Tiantian said with a smile, giving Huo Jian a thumbs up.

Huo Yingqi was very grateful to He Tiantian. Because of her leg ailment, she was unable to go out. Zhao Huanhuan was not in Yanjing, and Song Chunli was too old, so He Tiantian helped take care of Huo Jian's swimming.

With Tian Tian as a role model, Xiao Jian is happy and works hard so as not to worry her.

"Okay," Huo Jian nodded. "I'll try my best."

Song Chunli helped to greet them, saying, "Tian Tian, ​​you should rest for a while too. You must be very tired from training all day. Just wait, we'll be eating soon."

Grandpa Huo looked at his eldest son, then at his grandson, and said with a smile, "Let's go to the study and have a chat."

Huo Yingjie nodded and said, "Yes, grandfather, uncle."

Huo Yingjie led them to the study.

The guards around him carefully checked the study and found nothing amiss before closing the door and leaving.

Grandpa Huo sat in a mahogany chair and asked with a smile, "Was this trip relatively smooth?"

"Well, it went fairly smoothly," Huo Yingjie said. "And I even received some credit, but there's a lot going on right now, so it'll probably be a while before the rewards are given. I haven't had a break in so long, so I'll take a good rest at home."
