Huo Jue's gaze fell on Wen Xia Nuan, his expression mixed with a hint of concern.
Wen Xia Nuan looked up: "Huo Jue, what do you want to say?"
Huo Jue's emotions were surging. Wen Xia Nuan's eyes fell on Huo Jue: "You won't do anything stupid, will you?"
"Wen Zhiqing, what are you thinking about?"
Huo Jue waved his hand. Wen Xia Nuan looked at him and wanted to say something, but when she saw the figure appearing behind him, her expression changed.
"Huo Jue, you are really brave."
Huo Zhiguo walked towards him with a gloomy face, his eyes filled with coldness: "Explain yourself, do you still care about your grandma?"
"Uncle, I can't take care of grandma anymore."
After Huo Jue said this, a gloomy look flashed across Huo Zhiguo's eyes: "What did you say?"
Wen Xia Nuan widened her eyes when she heard this and looked at Huo Jue in surprise.
"I said, grandma, I can't control it anymore."
Huo Jue glanced at everyone present and chuckled sarcastically, "Which of you two can take charge? After all, you, my son, have been a hands-off manager for so many years. It's time for you to take on some responsibilities!"
Huo Zhiguo's face turned very ugly after hearing what Huo Jue said. He said gloomily: "You don't want to take responsibility at all now, right?"
He was breathing rapidly. Huo Jue responded indifferently. He just happened to see Huo Xiao helping his grandmother out. "Grandma, you should have heard everything I said. Huo Xiao is not young anymore. It's time for him to take charge of things on his own. Let's split up the family while you're still here."
Split up the family?
Old Mrs. Huo's face turned pale instantly. She looked at her grandson as if she was meeting him for the first time.
"Huo Jue, you, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Huo Jue curled his lips and said, "Grandma, I'm not talking nonsense. Since you heard it clearly, then find a time to call the captain over to be a witness so I can leave early."
The old lady covered her chest in anger. Huo Xiao also looked at Huo Jue with an uneasy look: "Brother, why are you doing this? I admit that I was wrong."
"But you can't use these things to threaten us."
Huo Jue frowned. Huo Xiao looked at him calmly. He curled his lips and said, "This is not a threat. It's the decision I made after careful consideration."
He looked at Huo Xiao and said, "You're not young anymore. I don't care whether you want to continue studying or work in the village. Huo Xiao, I can't control your plans. Do whatever you want."
Huo Xiao swallowed the rest of his words and looked at the old lady for help: "Grandma..."
Old Mrs. Huo really didn't expect things to turn out like this.
She stared at Huo Xiao intently, and at this moment she couldn't utter a single word.
"Grandma, you're a smart person, and you probably know what I'm thinking. I have too much responsibility for this family, and I need to take a break. Please don't make things difficult for me."
Huo Jue's eyes fell on the old lady, his expression was indifferent. Old lady Huo didn't say anything good or bad, she just sighed and walked out of the hospital step by step.
Huo Xiao felt even more uneasy because he had not received any notification from the old lady. At this moment, he could only look to his uncle for help.
Huo Zhiguo turned his eyes away and didn't intend to get involved.
Wen Xia Nuan followed behind them, and was deeply shocked.
She didn't expect that things would turn out like this.
Huo Jue actually wants to split the family business himself!
She frowned and really didn't know what to say about this.
Huo Jue's eyes were filled with concern. When he saw Wen Xia Nuan approaching him, the gentleness in his eyes melted away: "Wen Zhiqing."
"Huo Jue, have you really thought about this matter of dividing the family?"
Her worried gaze fell on him, and Huo Jue nodded: "It's time for me to fight for something that belongs to me. I can't continue to give everything to this family."
"Wen Zhiqing, you can see that my efforts will not bring me any rewards."
"Since you've figured it out, I have nothing to say. Huo Jue, I support you no matter what you do."
Wen Xia Nuan lowered her voice. She was able to notice the burning gaze falling on her.
But Wen Xia Nuan was not afraid at all. For her, once she started to take care of this matter, she would not give up halfway.
Moreover, everything Huo Jue did was indeed a better solution for Wen Xia Nuan.
The ox cart slowly drove back home. When they reached the village entrance, Huo Jue got off the cart and said, "Huo Xiao, please send grandma back first. I have some things to take care of."
Huo Xiao's nervous gaze fell on Huo Jue. He couldn't understand what Huo Jue was trying to do at the moment.
"Huo Jue, what do you want to do?"
After Old Lady Huo asked the question, Huo Jue got off the ox cart and walked out without saying a word.
Wen Xia Nuan also followed him at this moment, looking at Huo Jue with concern: "Huo Jue, you are really great."
Huo Jue forced a smile, and Wen Xia Nuan also said, "Are you going to find the captain now?"
"Wen Zhiqing, I really can't hide anything from you."
Huo Jue nodded: "I want to talk to the captain first to make things clear, so that no one can take advantage of me."
Wen Xia Nuan supported it. She always felt that Huo Jue in front of her had become a different person.
Although he remained silent, his inner thoughts made him shine.
Inside the village committee.
When the captain heard what Huo Jue said, his eyes trembled: "Huo Jue, are you sure?"
His suspicious gaze fell on Huo Jue, who nodded vigorously: "Captain, I have already thought about my next plan, so I am not coming to you to say these words out of a momentary sense of loyalty."
"But you know your family's situation well. If I really do what you say, what will happen to your brother and grandma?"
"Grandma still has my uncle, so it's not like she doesn't have a son anymore."
The captain was also stunned. When he heard these words, he realized that Huo Jue had been the one carrying the family all these years. It was indeed the best thing that he was willing to change now.
"Huo Jue, if you've really thought it through, I'll come to your house in a few days to help you deal with this matter."
Huo Jue nodded and looked at the captain: "I'll let you come over after my grandma has rested for a few days."
He had a plan in mind and quickly stood up to say goodbye.
Huo Jue breathed a sigh of relief and walked out with a bit more speed.
