"sincere?"
When Mr. Wen heard Huo Jue's voice, he curled his lips and said, "What our Wen family lacks the most is sincerity."
Huo Jue fell silent for a moment.
Old Master Wen's gaze fell on Huo Jue. Seeing how embarrassed he was, he subdued his arrogance a bit. "I haven't looked into your identity, and I'm also aware that your family background isn't good."
“Yes, my family’s ingredients are indeed not good.”
After a brief moment of hesitation, Huo Jue looked at Old Man Wen and said, "Grandpa, I didn't intend to hide these things from you. Like I said, I am indeed sincere to Ah Nuan. But if you think sincerity is what the Wen family lacks the most, then I can assure you that I will definitely make progress."
"Huo Jue, you still don't understand what I mean."
Old Master Wen said indifferently, "Since the Wen family is not short of sincerity, how could there be a lack of ambitious young people seeking Ah Nuan?"
"Do you think that just a few words from you can make me look up to you?"
Wen Xia Nuan, standing aside, was stunned by these words.
She stared at her grandfather blankly, and just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by a look from her grandfather.
Wen Xia Nuan frowned and looked at Huo Jue, she couldn't help feeling a little distressed.
She knew Huo Jue's embarrassment and inferiority, and her grandfather's words at this moment only exacerbated these feelings of Huo Jue.
"Grandpa, you..."
"A Nuan, Grandpa said, I'm talking to Huo Jue, please don't interrupt now."
Wen Xia Nuan was scolded by the old man. Huo Jue also looked at Wen Xia Nuan. He forced a smile to comfort her, "A Nuan, don't say anything for now."
At this moment, she could only swallow the rest of the words back into her stomach reluctantly.
Old Master Wen kept his sharp eyes on Huo Jue. "Huo Jue, I have something to ask you. What do you think about being with my granddaughter?"
"In your heart, do you always feel that if you get close to Ah Nuan, you will be able to reach the sky in one step?"
Wen Xia Nuan's face instantly darkened when she heard this.
She turned to the old man with an unprecedentedly cold voice: "Grandpa, you're going too far!"
"Ah Xing, take your sister away!"
Old Master Wen looked at his granddaughter's elbows and looked at his second grandson repeatedly: "Don't let her out until I finish talking to him."
Wen Xia Nuan was dragged out by her second brother. She struggled but could not break free from her second brother's restraints.
When Wen Xia Nuan left the living room, she looked at her grandfather with pleading eyes, but her expression did not change at all.
The door was closed.
Huo Jue's worried look fell on the old man: "Grandpa, you don't have to take it out on A Nuan. If I'm not considerate in any way, you can come at me."
He frowned, but still didn't dare to offend the old man.
When Mr. Huo heard this, he smiled. Looking at Huo Jue in front of him, he said in a calm voice, "Ajue, you don't have any way to deal with this matter."
"If I hand Ah Nuan over to you, a powerless person, and if Ah Nuan acts recklessly one day and offends you, a person you can't afford to offend, what will you do?"
When Huo Jue heard these words, his hands at his sides clenched into fists.
If he still doesn't understand it at this moment, he would be as stupid as a pig.
Old Master Wen was giving him a lesson.
Huo Jue stared at the old man with a burning gaze. After thinking for a moment, he spoke, "Grandpa, if that day ever comes, I might abandon everything and use your reputation to warn them."
"So, you haven't thought of any other solutions?"
Huo Jue remained silent. Old Master Wen looked at him and laughed out loud.
For a moment, he couldn't understand what the old man was thinking.
Old Master Wen pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled, "Ajue, you are right."
"I was certainly not wrong about you."
Huo Jue was stunned, his eyes falling on the old man. He originally thought that what he said would make the old man unhappy, but he didn't expect the old man to laugh heartily.
He still didn't understand what was going on for a while.
Old Master Wen suppressed his smile and looked at Huo Jue: "I admit that although you don't have much ability, what you said is indeed honest."
"Huo Jue, I originally thought you were a person with strong self-esteem, but I didn't expect you to be willing to do this for Ah Nuan."
"I acknowledge your relationship with A Nuan."
Old Master Wen restrained his aura and looked at him and said, "I'm relieved to leave A Nuan to you."
Huo Jue stared at the old man blankly. At this moment, he really didn't understand what he meant.
"Are you also curious about why I said these words?"
The old man's gaze fell on Huo Jue. Huo Jue responded and looked at the old man with a calm expression: "Grandpa, did you plan all these things today?"
Old Master Wen nodded. "I'm saying these things today. First, I want to test your resolve. Second, I want to see how far you've come for Ah Nuan."
"Now it seems that you are indeed a man of great adaptability."
Old Master Wen doesn't need someone with a strong sense of self-esteem or someone who is conceited. What he needs is someone who can take care of his granddaughter wholeheartedly and will not take advantage of her or abandon her.
It is obvious that all of Huo Jue's performances now are highly regarded by the old man.
Facing Huo Jue at this moment, the old man smiled and said, "Your performance today was perfect, so I decided to let you continue to be with A Nuan."
There was a hint of concern in the old man's eyes. After hearing this, Huo Jue could finally relax from the uneasiness in his heart.
He stared at the old man with burning eyes, then laughed: "So now everything I have done is considered a pass in your eyes."
The old man responded, looked at Huo Jue and said, "You shouldn't be unhappy now, right?"
Huo Jue shook his head.
At this moment, the door was opened, and Wen Xia Nuan hurried in. Her eyes fell on Huo Jue. Just as she was about to speak, she heard the old man cough: "A Nuan, you don't have grandpa in your heart at all, right?"
Wen Xia Nuan looked at Grandpa Wen helplessly. Her second brother had explained everything to her very clearly before. Now, looking at the old man, she said helplessly: "Grandpa, could you have informed me in advance when you did these things?"
"This time it's not just me, even Huo Jue should be scared by you."
Wen Xia Nuan said this unhappily, and Old Man Wen said cheerfully, "If I don't do this, how will I know if he's someone I can rely on?"
