Little Tuanzi was unaware of her grandfather's thoughts. After her request for a fourth bowl of rice was rejected by her father, she wasn't too disappointed, at least her stomach wasn't so empty anymore.

She finally picked up a shrimp, swallowed it whole, and then put down her chopsticks, completely satisfied.

Burp, that's enough for now.

In the evening, Lin Cheng went home after dinner, and Chaochao lay on the coffee table, doodling with a marker.

When Grandpa Huo remembered that Chaochao would be home this evening, he asked, "What did Chaochao do outside this afternoon?"

Chaochao, still drawing, didn't look up. "Brother Yuci got sick from being in the rain, so Brother Jingcheng and I are going to take care of him~"

Grandpa Huo said "Oh," then asked in confusion, "Don't they have any adults in their family?"

Chaochao: "His parents have gone on a long trip."

Old Master Huo nodded, but a strange feeling arose in his heart.

Yu Ci?

Where have I heard that before?

Xu Sheng whispered a reminder in Old Master Huo's ear.

A look of realization flashed across the old man's eyes.

It turns out he is Gu Kai's son.

The story of how Gu Kai, the current CEO of Zhengtian Group, built his empire from scratch is far from glorious.

He had an affair with the only daughter of the Zhang family while his ex-wife was pregnant. After the affair was exposed, they quickly divorced, and he became the son-in-law of Zhang's Building Materials. His ex-wife suffered greatly from this and developed postpartum depression. Years later, she committed suicide by jumping into the sea with her ten-year-old son.

This was considered a minor news item in the elite circles of City B. Gu Kai was shunned by Zhang Wenjing because of it and had to swallow his anger.

His ex-wife jumped into the sea and died, but his young son Yu Ci survived by chance and was sent to an orphanage. He was later adopted by a couple, but was sent back after only a year.

At that time, Gu Kai, whose ambitions had swelled, had already taken control of the Zhang family, renamed it Zhengtian Group, and then brought Yu Ci back.

Less than six months later, rumors broke that Madam Gu was pregnant and had been framed by her stepson to miscarry. In any case, the boy was eventually sent back to the orphanage.

The family's affairs were quite a sensation back then, and Old Master Huo had heard about them.

Unexpectedly, the older brother Chaochao mentioned was him.

Why does this kid always surround himself with people like this?

Old Master Huo glanced at Huo Qin from afar.

This kid definitely knows about that boy, but in the afternoon he only said he was at Xie Jingcheng's house.

In just a second or two, Old Master Huo looked away.

If that boy had ulterior motives, or was instigated by his ungrateful father to approach Chaochao...

Old Master Huo's sharp eyes were unfathomable.

He lowered his head and took a sip of tea.

Then don't blame the Huo family for being too ruthless.
