Chapter 233 Huo Yuan's Resistance

The two little ones had different expressions when they saw Huo Nanxiao.

Huo Yuan remained calm, as if he hadn't seen Huo Nanxiao at all. He only greeted Xia Ningxi and Xia Jingcheng, completely ignoring Huo Nanxiao, and went to his seat to eat his meal quietly.

He didn't say a single word to Huo Nanxiao from beginning to end.

Huo Yuan ate quickly, hoping to finish his meal soon so that Huo Nanxiao could leave and Xingxing wouldn't have to go hungry upstairs.

As for Xia Chuchu, she kept staring at Huo Nanxiao after sitting down at the table. Although the little baby didn't say a word, everyone could tell that Xia Chuchu didn't like Huo Nanxiao.

She barely ate anything, just stared at Huo Nanxiao with her grape-sized eyes, which were not only wary but also fierce.

Huo Nanxiao thought about it carefully and realized that he hadn't provoked Xia Chuchu at all; at most, he had just been competing with her for Huo Yuan.

But Huo Yuan is his son, so it's only right that Huo Nanxiao takes Huo Yuan away. Why should Xia Chuchu try to take him away?

Huo Nanxiao kept a cold face and ignored Xia Chuchu.

He served Huo Yuan some food.

Huo Yuan didn't eat; he simply threw away the food that Huo Nanxiao had put in his bowl.

Xia Chuchu was overjoyed to see this.

"Brother Huo Yuan, have some egg, this egg is so delicious." Xia Chuchu presented Huo Yuan with an egg as if it were a treasure.

Huo Yuan said happily, "Thank you, Chu Chu."

Xia Chuchu smiled happily and raised her chin at Huo Nanxiao with a hint of smugness.

Huo Nanxiao remained silent, his face ashen.

After dinner, Huo Nanxiao coldly told Huo Yuan to pack his things and come home with him.

"Daddy, I don't want to go back with you. I want to stay here," Huo Yuan protested.

Huo Nanxiao said, "They can't take good care of you. Be good, come back with me."

Huo Yuan said, "I can take care of myself, Daddy, don't worry. I'm a big boy now, and I want to stay. Daddy, please say yes?"

Huo Nanxiao said with a gloomy face, "Stop messing around and come back with me obediently."

Huo Yuan, feeling wronged because he was not given permission, cried, tears streaming down his face.

Huo Nanxiao frowned, looking down at Huo Yuan's small face, and asked, word by word, "Do you really want to stay here?"

"Mm." Huo Yuan nodded.

Huo Nanxiao said, "The Huo family is your home, not this place. Ayuan, it's very impolite to keep bothering others. You're a well-mannered child, you should know that what you're doing is inappropriate."

Huo Yuan lowered his head, biting his lip and remaining silent.

Isn't this his home?

But this is Xingxing and Chuchu's home.

Why can this be the home of my younger brother and sister, or Mommy's home? But not his home?

Why does Daddy insist on separating him and Mommy?

What did he do wrong?

Huo Yuan's nose was red. He didn't want to cause trouble for Xia Ningxi, so he could only listen to Huo Nanxiao and get into his car.

On the way back, Huo Yuan didn't say a word, sitting silently in a corner, tears streaming down his face.

When they arrived home, Huo Nanxiao went to help him out of the car and discovered that Huo Yuan's clothes were soaked with tears and his little eyes were swollen.

Huo Nanxiao felt a pang of heartache as he looked at him and said in a deep voice, "A Yuan, we're home."

"This is not my home," Huo Yuan said in a hoarse voice.

Huo Nanxiao frowned: "This is your home."

Huo Yuan raised his head and angrily shouted at Huo Nanxiao, "This is not my home, it isn't!"

Huo Nanxiao had never seen Huo Yuan so angry. A look of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down and questioned Huo Yuan with a very serious expression: "Why are you angry? Why did you say this isn't your home?"

"Why do I say this? Doesn't Daddy know? Daddy doesn't like me at all, and he doesn't care about my thoughts. Daddy has never cared about my feelings. What am I to you? Am I just a pawn in your hands, a tool?" Huo Yuan questioned in a hoarse voice.

Huo Nanxiao said angrily, "No, you are my son. I care about you and I respect you very much."

Huo Yuan said, "Then why do I have to stay at Dr. Xia's house? Daddy won't allow it."

“That’s not your home. As an outsider, you shouldn’t bother others. It’s very impolite,” Huo Nanxiao admonished.

However, this was actually the case with Huo Yuan in the past, since he knew nothing back then and did whatever Huo Nanxiao said.

But now that Huo Yuan knows that Xia Ningxi is his mother, is it wrong for him to go back to his mother's house?

Xingxing and Chuchu can live with their mother, and their mother has never said that they are impolite. So why is it that when I come to my mother's house, I am considered impolite?

To put it bluntly, Daddy is prejudiced against him.

Daddy just doesn't like him having any contact with Mommy.

Daddy hopes that he will be just as clueless as before, obediently listen to him, acknowledge Xia Wanwan as his mother, and completely sever ties with his own mother and younger siblings.

He was just a pawn in his father's game.

Huo Yuan pushed Huo Nanxiao away, raised his head, and said, "Daddy, do you really consider me your son?"

"What do you want to say?" Huo Nanxiao asked seriously.

Huo Yuan said, "Dad, do you see me as your son, or as a pawn in your game?"

Huo Nanxiao was angry: "How could you say such a thing?"

Huo Yuan said, "Did I hit the nail on the head? Daddy expects me to do everything you say and obey you. I don't even have my own freedom."

"What kind of freedom do you want? Have I mistreated you?" Huo Nanxiao also got angry.

Huo Yuan said, "I want to stay at Dr. Xia's house, I want to be with my little sister Chu Chu and the others, why does Daddy have to separate us!"

"That's not your home, this is your home!"

Huo Nanxiao's aura gradually turned cold.

Huo Yuan looked into Huo Nanxiao's sharp eyes with his clear gaze and said, word by word, "Then tell me, Daddy, why isn't that my home?"

This question stumped Huo Nanxiao. A hint of surprise flashed in his deep eyes, and then he understood.

Huo Yuan must have found out.

Otherwise, Huo Yuan wouldn't be so angry, let alone say these things to me.

A cold glint flashed in Huo Nanxiao's eyes: "You are never allowed to go to the Mingding Courtyard again."

Huo Yuan said, "Why!"

"You've only been there a few days and you're already talking back. I doubt you'll learn anything good there. I've already found you a kindergarten. Once the enrollment procedures are completed, you can go straight to school," Huo Nanxiao said coldly.

Huo Yuan said, "Dr. Xia is a very good person, and I won't go astray if I follow them. As for why I talked back? Why doesn't Daddy reflect on himself? As my father, you're full of lies. I don't like you anymore, so why should I listen to you and go to school? Daddy loves kindergarten so much, then go by yourself. I'm not going!"
