Chapter 27: The Fake Daughter of a Prominent Family
"Man-made?"
Huo Guangchun's face froze. Everyone present understood, and now the meaning was very clear. The disappearance of the eldest son of the Huo family was most likely caused by the second son of the Huo family.
Brothers are at odds with each other... It's hard to say who will be in charge of the Huo family in the future.
Huo Zhenxun glanced at Huo Zhenyao, who had an expressionless face.
"I have asked someone to look for him at the address the servant sent the telegram to. We should get some news in a while. As long as he is still there, we will definitely find him."
He hadn’t spent the past few years abroad in vain. He usually went to and from class with Su Youran, and managed to sit in on many classes and made many connections.
Some people abroad are not very friendly to Chinese people, but there are still some people who don't pay attention to these and only interact with people based on their character and talent.
Huo Zhenyao's eyes were deep, his expression remained unchanged, and he even smiled:
"Well, I also want to know if that servant deliberately harmed my brother."
He looked at Ye Jiuzhou, who was full of disdain: "It will also save people from making false accusations."
Ye Jiuzhou was too lazy to argue with them. He said those things purely because he was displeased with Huo Zhenyao and wanted to disgust him on purpose.
He enjoyed watching the internal fighting of the Huo family. It would be best if both sides were hurt and no one of them got in the way of Ranran.
Ye Jiuzhou ignored everyone else and only looked at Su Youran: “Are you tired? Shall we go over and sit for a while?”
There was a long table on one side of the hall, with a lot of snacks and food on it, similar to a buffet. Next to it was a row of long sofas.
Of course, these were all suggested by Su Youran.
Ye Jiuzhou looked at the high heels on Su Youran's feet. She had just danced and listened to their chatter for such a long time. She must be tired from standing.
Su Youran looked at Su Zhengming, who smiled and waved at her:
"You haven't been back for several years. You've become unfamiliar with your peers. Go over and hang out with your friends."
Su Youran nodded and looked at Huo Zhenxun again. He had no memories and was unfamiliar with the people here. There was also Huo Zhenyao next to him who might have a grudge against him. No matter how she thought about it, she felt uneasy.
Huo Zhenxun's expression was gentle: "You go first, I'll get you a glass of juice."
He had been with Su Youran for several years and knew all her living habits very well. She should be thirsty now.
Su Youran was then led by Ye Jiuzhou to the sofa. Huo Zhenxun bowed to Su Zhengming and Huo Guangchun and followed them.
Huo Zhenyao looked at the backs of the three people, turned to Huo Guangchun and said:
"Father, my eldest brother just came back and may not be used to it yet. Can I go over to take a look?"
Huo Guangchun looked at him with an inexplicable look in his eyes, and finally nodded in response: "Go."
Huo Zhenyao politely greeted Su Zhengming again, then turned around to look for Su Youran.
Although he didn't want to see the annoying Ye Jiuzhou and the hated Huo Zhenxun, the desire to spend time with the people he cared about still prevailed.
Huo Guangchun looked at the group of four over there, three equally handsome and outstanding men, surrounding a beautiful and elegant woman, and smiled at Su Zhengming:
"A daughter is sought after by hundreds of families. Brother Su is so lucky."
Su Zhengming laughed: "Of course, she's still young, don't worry."
Su Youran sat on the soft sofa and finally breathed a sigh of relief. This was the first time she wore these high heels. They looked good and perfectly accentuated her long and slender legs, but they also rubbed her feet a little.
She couldn't help but put her legs together and move them to the side, bending down slightly to see if her feet were rubbed red.
Ye Jiuzhou asked the servants scattered around for a thin blanket, and carefully covered Su Youran's legs with it.
After covering it, he half squatted down and picked up Su Youran's feet.
Su Youran was startled and looked around. There were still many people looking over there.
She patted Ye Jiuzhou's back unhappily: "What are you doing? Get up!"
Ye Jiuzhou took off her shoes, looked at her delicate little feet, and relaxed slightly:
"Fortunately, it's not worn out."
He raised his head and looked at Su Youran teasingly, “You really don’t care about your feet just to look good.”
Su Youran pulled him and said, "Hurry up and get up. What does it look like to squat like this?"
There was a coffee table in front of the sofa, which blocked the movements of Ye Jiuzhou's men. Although one could not see what he was doing, his tall figure squatting there made him more conspicuous.
Ye Jiuzhou couldn't help but stroke her fair and smooth skin: "It's so tender everywhere, like tofu."
Su Youran's ears turned red.
"What nonsense! You are becoming more and more unruly. Are you still the famous Ye Jiuzhou?"
Ye Jiuzhou lowered his head and massaged her ankles and calves carefully, trying to relieve her pain:
"In front of Miss Su, I am just an ordinary admirer. No matter my status or reputation, how can it be as important as you?"
Huo Zhenyao happened to hear this when he came over and sneered:
"Some people seem to be not only good at writing love poems, but also good at saying sweet words. How did they learn this? I guess they must have a lot of experience, right?"
Ye Jiuzhou didn't even raise his head:
"How can Mr. Ye compare to Mr. Huo in terms of experience? I heard not long ago that Mr. Huo was having a hot relationship with a movie star. I guess good things are about to happen, right?"
Huo Zhenyao sat down on the sofa, and when he saw Ye Jiuzhou's actions clearly, his eyes darkened:
"Mr. Ye actually believed the gossip made up by the tabloids?"
Ye Jiuzhou's voice was full of sarcasm:
"I don't think it's made up. When Ranran and I first met Mr. Huo, wasn't there a beauty by his side?"
Huo Zhenyao crossed his legs:
"If Mr. Ye hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten that this beautiful lady likes you. Do you need me to introduce you to her?"
Ye Jiuzhou's men continued to move. He raised his head and glanced coldly at Huo Zhenyao:
"It seems that Mr. Huo has learned the essence of Mr. Huo. Otherwise, why would he introduce other women to me when he knew that I had a fiancée?"
He said something unclear:
"As expected, a good father will have a good son. I am really worried about Mr. Huo's future wife. I hope she doesn't end up like Mrs. Huo now."
Huo Zhenyao tightened his hands on his knees. Seeing that Su Youran was unhappy, he quickly explained:
"How could that be? If I get married, I will be devoted to my wife and will never marry anyone else."
There was a trace of sadness on his face:
"I have suffered a lot because of this, how could I let the tragedy happen again?"
Huo Zhenxun, who was a step late because he went to get snacks and drinks, placed the tray in front of Su Youran and said softly:
"These are all your favorites, eat some first."
He looked at Huo Zhenyao, who was playing the role of a victim: "So you hold a grudge and want to take revenge on me?"
Su Youran seemed to be speaking up for Huo Zhenxun: “Ah Xun is innocent too.”
Shouldn't the person who deserves revenge be the man who can't control his lower body?
Huo Zhenyao smiled bitterly:
"It seems like you won't believe anything I say, but Big Brother's matter really has nothing to do with me. I also want to know what's going on."
Ye Jiuzhou helped Su Youran put on her shoes again, not wanting the two annoying guys to keep their eyes on Ranran's legs.
He pulled the blanket down further, making sure it covered his ankles. Then he stood up and sat next to Su Youran, pursing his lips.
"I'm sorry, I really don't believe it."
Other people in the hall saw Ye Jiuzhou and Miss Su sitting next to each other, and the two young masters of the Huo family sitting opposite each other. The four of them formed a triangle posture. No one knew what they were talking about, and the expression on the second young master Huo's face did not look good.
Huo Zhenyao felt so angry that his teeth were itching. Most of the people he dealt with in the past were the ones who, even if they were dirty inside, would still maintain the illusion that everyone was doing well on the surface.
There has never been a person like Ye Jiuzhou who disregards all feelings and speaks out everything.
It’s simply... it’s simply the typical example of me feeling happy when I see you unhappy!
Huo Zhenxun pushed the drink towards Su Youran as if he were an outsider.
“Try this, it’s sour and sweet, very refreshing.”
Before Su Youran could move, Ye Jiuzhou had already picked it up and took a big gulp.
"Yeah, it's good."
After saying that, he held the cup and brought the half he had drunk to Su Youran’s lips:
"Try to drink."
Huo Zhenxun and Huo Zhenyao stared at the cup as if they wanted to punch a hole in it.
Su Youran glared at Ye Jiuzhou secretly and pushed the cup away. “I’m not thirsty yet. I don’t want to drink.”
Ye Jiuzhou looked aggrieved:
"Try it. You fed me coffee with your mouth before. If the occasion wasn't wrong, I would have fed you the same way..."
The rest of his words died down in the face of Su Youran’s angry eyes. Ye Jiuzhou sighed with regret:
"Okay, I know, I know, but there are outsiders here, so I can't say these things."
"What do you mean by outsiders and insiders?"
Shao Zhizhao came over with a gentle smile and asked casually:
"Junior sister, what are you talking about?"
Su Youran was pleasantly surprised. “Senior Brother Shao, you’re here too.”
Shao Zhizhao held a cup of coffee in one hand and handed one to Su Youran:
"As soon as I tasted this flavor, I knew it must have been brought back by my junior sister. I have been looking for this flavor since I came back, but unfortunately I never found it. After more than a year, I finally tasted it again. I really miss it."
Su Youran took the coffee with a smile:
"I brought back some better ones, specially prepared for you, I believe you can drink them for a long time."
"That's great. Junior sister is still thinking about me." Shao Zhizhao smiled even more and raised his glass: "Junior sister is simply the incarnation of Venus today, so beautiful."
Su Youran leaned forward and gently touched him. “Thank you, Brother.”
The cold wind in Ye Jiuzhou's eyes blew towards Shao Zhizhao. Huo Zhenyao looked up and down at this person who suddenly appeared. Who is this?
His surname is Shao. Is he the doctor of the Shao family? How come he is Miss Su's senior brother?
Huo Zhenxun nodded to Shao Zhizhao and said, "Mr. Shao, long time no see."
Shao Zhizhao looked at Huo Zhenxun with a smile:
"Long time no see. I didn't expect you to be the eldest son of the Huo family. I haven't congratulated you yet. You finally found your family."
As he spoke, he sat down opposite Su Youran. Now the four men each occupied a side, as if they were a solid quadrilateral guarding the only red flower in the middle.
