When Wen Xia Nuan heard Huo Jue's voice, she was stunned.
"Did I scare you a little when I said this?"
When Wen Xia Nuan heard this, she quickly waved her hands: "No, no."
She hesitated, and Huo Jue looked at her: "What are you doing?"
The two of them had returned to the courtyard. As soon as they walked through the door, Mrs. Huo's eyes fell on Huo Jue: "Come here!"
He paused and his eyes fell on the old lady. Huo Jue could see that his grandmother had something to say.
"Wen Zhiqing, go and rest first."
Wen Xia Nuan's eyes fell on him, and seeing the old lady's ill-intentioned look, she asked worriedly, "Huo Jue, are you sure you can do this at this time?"
She was still worried about Huo Jue, but Huo Jue smiled and said, "It's okay."
Old Madam Huo looked at the two people entangled in a dilemma and said in an angry voice, "Huo Jue, what are you waiting for?"
The anger in her eyes was filled with coldness. Huo Jue responded, "Coming."
After hearing what Old Lady Huo said, Huo Jue hurried in.
Wen Xia Nuan stood there, but for some reason, she always felt a little uneasy in her heart.
"Huo Jue, kneel down!"
Old Mrs. Huo knocked the ground hard a few times with her cane, and Huo Jue fell to his knees. He glanced at Old Mrs. Huo, and before he could say anything, he knelt down on the ground.
He looked at Mrs. Huo with an indifferent expression. The old lady said coldly, "Huo Jue, you are now happy that you have made your two brothers like this."
"Grandma, did you ask me to come here just to say this to me?"
His puzzled eyes fell on the old lady's. The old lady remained silent. Huo Jue felt a sense of grievance in his heart: "To you, I am the least important, am I not?"
"Grandma, in your opinion, as your grandson, I never need to have any emotions, right?"
Old Mrs. Huo didn't know why her grandson would talk about this?
She looked at Huo Jue, a moment of hesitation in her eyes, but soon she swallowed back all her emotions: "Huo Jue, do you think I shouldn't treat you like this?"
"How dare I?"
A flash of sarcasm flashed across Huo Jue's eyes. Old Madam Huo's expression was cold, and she finally sighed: "Huo Jue, I know you have a lot of opinions about me and your brother, but you should also understand why I am so serious with you!"
"I hope that both of you can succeed in life instead of fighting among yourselves all the time!"
"Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Huo Jue kept looking at the old lady. The old lady Huo felt uneasy in her heart when he looked at her. At this moment, she hesitated and could not say anything else.
Huo Jue swallowed back the rest of his words.
The old lady also knew that she couldn't be too strict, otherwise the result would be counterproductive.
"Is there anything else you're busy with?"
The old lady was startled, then looked at Huo Jue and said, "I can't come to you if there's nothing else, right?"
"Grandma, if you feel that what I said is not in line with your wishes, I think there is really no need for us to continue talking in Chen's place."
Huo Jue stood up and turned to leave. At this moment, the old lady's eyes fell on her grandson. For the first time, she realized that she probably couldn't control him.
Suddenly, she felt a sense of loss in her heart, and felt that her grandson no longer belonged to her for a moment.
She felt at a loss in her heart, especially when she saw Huo Jue's expression.
The old lady didn't want to discuss anything else.
"Huo Jue."
"Wait a minute."
Her voice came again. Huo Jue paused and looked at the old lady. "Do you want to say anything else?"
The old lady pursed her lips and thought for a moment before saying, "Wen Xia Nuan, what do you think?"
Her expression fell on him. Huo Jue's heart moved, and his eyes fell on the old lady: "Grandma, what do you mean?"
Her puzzled gaze fell on Huo Jue: "Hasn't what I said been clear enough?"
Huo Jue was stunned. The old lady smiled and said, "Huo Jue, have you ever thought about being with her?"
"Of course I have thought about it."
He took over the words without thinking, and when his eyes fell on his grandmother, he quickly said: "I want to be with her, grandma."
"But now I also know that my status is not good enough for her. I won't force it, nor do I have to be together so quickly."
Mrs. Huo's expression was filled with concern. After hearing these words, she looked at Huo Jue with a higher regard: "I feel a little relieved that you have this self-awareness."
Huo Jue's sarcastic gaze fell on Old Madam Huo. After hearing what she said, he also curled his lips and retorted, "Then I wonder if I can leave now?"
He really didn't want to continue to be entangled with her.
Old Mrs. Huo's eyes swept over her grandson, and for a moment, she seemed to see her own son superimposed on him.
Mrs. Huo felt an inexplicable sense of guilt rising in her heart. However, when she thought of her grandson and the second son's child, the guilt that had quickly risen in her was suppressed again.
"Huo Jue, I don't need to explain my thoughts much. I'm sure you understand. I hope you can listen carefully to the things I tell you. I'm not trying to go against me."
Huo Jue quickly closed the door and walked out of the house, thinking about everything that had happened in the past. For a moment, Huo Jue felt that he was tired of living in this world.
He desperately wanted to get rid of this thought, but in the end he swallowed the words back.
Walking towards his room step by step, Huo Jue's eyes were indeed mixed with a bit of irritation and fatigue.
He actually knew better than anyone that he shouldn't do this now, but he felt embarrassed now.
He couldn't escape his grandmother's control, but he also wanted to be with Wen Xia Nuan.
He was stuck in the quagmire, but there was nothing he could do.
Huo Jue felt aggrieved and angry at the same time. Why did he have to carry all this pressure and move forward?
Wen Xia Nuan had been standing guard at the door the entire time. The moment she saw Huo Jue appear, she quickly rushed over: "Huo Jue, are you okay now?"
As Wen Xia Nuan's voice came, Huo Jue's eyes fell on her: "I'm fine, Wen Zhiqing, why are you still awake so late?"
