His mother must have said a lot of bad things about him, so his father's impression of him will be biased from the start.

It would be better to apologize proactively and say that you did something that upset your mother recently, but you definitely won't do it again.

His father hadn't come back for over ten years, and he must have felt guilty for not fulfilling his responsibilities as a father.

If he takes the initiative to admit his mistake and expresses his grievances, he might be able to soften his father's heart.

Next, he will work on cultivating a good father-son relationship with his father and find a way to separate Huo Xi from the Duke's mansion, so that the position of heir will still be his.

The more the two thought about it, the more they felt it was a good thing that their biological father had returned alive, and their tense emotions relaxed.

Half an hour later, Qingyou and Huo Xingchen brought Huo Xi back to the Duke's Mansion.

Everyone in the Duke's mansion was shocked, and many of the old folks who had followed Huo Chen were overjoyed and wept.

Huo Jiwen had already taken Shi Lingqiao to the front yard to wait, just so that his father would see him when he returned, which also showed his filial piety.

Huo Xingchen and Qingyou walked into the front yard and saw Huo Jiwen and his wife coming over.

With red eyes, Huo Jiwen looked at Huo Xingchen with immense excitement, "Father, it's so wonderful that you're back alive."

His eyes and expression were filled with admiration and reverence.

But Huo Xingchen, a former Best Actor winner, immediately sensed how fake his son's expression was.

He raised an eyebrow at Huo Jiwen, "If I don't come back alive, my wife will be bullied to death by you, you unfilial son."

He had no feelings for char siu bao; he only felt disgust.

The first thing he planned to do when he got home was to make this char siu bao (barbecued pork bun) to cheer up his daughter, Youyou.
