Huo family.
Huo Jiaqi walked into the house angrily.
Father Huo took his expression in and snorted coldly, "Oh, our noble Young Master Huo still remembers to come back."
Huo Jiaqi paused and looked at her father. "It's a good thing you're home. I have something to ask you."
"I don't know how I've offended you again. Why are you so angry? Huo Jiaqi, do you still know that I'm your father?"
Huo Jiaqi forced a cold smile and looked at his father: "I'm only asking you once, tell me honestly, were you the one who spread the rumors about Bai Shuyu and me outside?"
Father Huo frowned and looked at Huo Jiaqi in front of him: "I am your father! Could it be that in your eyes, all I can do is target you and backstab you?"
Mother Huo sat aside, her eyes fixed on her son: "Jiaqi, even if your father dislikes Bai Shuyu, he would never do such a thing."
"Is there some misunderstanding here?"
Mother Huo looked at her son, but Huo Jiaqi sneered and said, "What kind of misunderstanding could there be? Even if it wasn't my father's fault, he must have been an accomplice."
"you!"
Father Huo stood up from the sofa in frustration and pointed a trembling finger at his son: "Huo Jiaqi, you are really my good son."
Huo Jiaqi kept her mouth shut and said nothing.
Father Huo took a deep breath. "Judging from your appearance, I bet you just came from the Bai family, right? Huo Jiaqi, you're truly a filial son! You believe everything they say, and you're so impatient to come over here and question me."
"Let me ask you, if Bai Shuyu accidentally falls down while walking in the future, will you also think that I had someone place a few stones on the road?"
After hearing this, Huo Jiaqi didn't say anything else.
Father Huo sat back on the sofa, breathing heavily.
Mother Huo hurried to her husband's side, patted his back and said soothingly, "Don't be so angry. Doesn't our son want an explanation?"
Mother Huo looked at him helplessly, but Father Huo sneered.
Huo Jiaqi stood there looking at his parents. Could it be that he really had misunderstood?
He was thinking about something, but his expression didn't reveal it.
The next second, the silent atmosphere was broken.
Huo Jiaqi's phone rang. He picked up the call and heard his assistant's voice: "President, there's news on the matter you asked me to investigate."
"All the evidence points to the Gu family. Do you need me to take action?"
"Need not."
Huo Jiaqi refused without thinking, then turned around and walked out of the house.
Seeing his son's state, Father Huo scolded him, "Rebellious son! Where are you going now?"
Huo Jiaqi paused, but did not turn to look at his father. Instead, he said indifferently, "Where I go is none of your business."
"Jiaqi, how do you talk to your father?"
Mother Huo's face looked very ugly.
After hearing her mother's scolding, Huo Jiaqi turned around and left without even looking back.
"Look at you, my good son!"
Father Huo covered his chest, sighed and cursed.
Mother Huo's eyes fell on her husband and she said unhappily, "Alright, just stop talking."
She frowned, her eyes falling on her son's back, and muttered, "If you hadn't always praised the Gu family's daughter, how could I have allowed her to pester Jiaqi for so long!"
"Now that there are so many troubles, isn't it all your own fault?"
Father Huo snorted lightly: "It's just my problem, not yours, right?"
He waved his hands and said, "Forget it, forget it, you can say whatever you want, I can't win against you anyway."
Mother Huo's eyes fell on him: "You can't argue with me, isn't it because you feel guilty!"
She watched her husband turn around and leave, her heart ached. She asked, "Let me ask you, were you responsible for the rumors about Bai Shuyu?"
Mr. Huo paused, his eyes falling on his wife: "You are asking me this now, don't you believe me?"
She cast a suspicious look at her husband, pursed her lips, and added, "If it really has nothing to do with you, then the problem between you and your son wouldn't be so tense. But if it is related, you better tell me as soon as possible!"
Father Huo's eyes fell on his wife. He looked at her and after thinking for a while, he said, "Wife, when you say that, I suddenly remembered something I said to Lao Gu before."
Mother Huo knew that her husband would be unhappy if he didn't cause some trouble!
She took a deep breath, her eyes fell on her husband and said, "Tell me, what good things have you done?"
Father Huo's eyes fell on Mother Huo and he quickly explained everything.
He smiled dryly. Mother Huo took a deep breath and looked at her husband unhappily: "Tell me, are you only growing taller but not smarter?"
"Where do you think our son is going now?"
When he heard this, Mother Huo rolled her eyes and said, "What do you think?"
She pulled the corner of her mouth and said, "Jia Qi is investigating this matter right now. The call just now must be from his assistant who found something!"
Mother Huo sneered, "You'd better pray that he doesn't find out what you've done, otherwise there will be unrest at home again!"
"Then why should I be afraid of him?"
Mother Huo rolled her eyes and said, "You're just being stubborn. I don't know what you're thinking."
She sighed: "When your son comes back, you should compromise with him as soon as possible."
Father Huo originally wanted to say something, but when his eyes fell on his wife, he shut his mouth obediently.
"Okay, okay, got it!"
He muttered, "As a father, I now have to act like a grandson in front of my son."
He was so unconvinced that Mother Huo sneered, "You have to pretend when you need to. Otherwise, do you think it's that simple to have a harmonious family and everything will be fine?"
Father Huo closed his mouth dryly.
There is no need to say more about the rest.
On the other side, the Gu family.
Father Gu sat on the sofa and threw the teacup in his hand away.
Gu Qinrou sat on the sofa on the other side with tears streaming down her face. She didn't say a word, but her father saw it and felt so distressed.
"Qin Rou, the Huo family has been playing tricks on us time and time again. I will definitely not let this go. I must give you an explanation for this matter!"
The cup smashed to the ground and broke into pieces.
Gu Qinrou's eyes fell on her father. She opened her mouth, but found that she couldn't utter a word.
At this moment, the housekeeper hurried into the house. Looking at the mess before him, he lowered his voice a few notches: "Master, the young master of the Huo family is here and is waiting at the door. Do you need to invite him in?"
