Chapter 1655: Brother Pit
Seeing that her uncle's tone was full of confidence, as if he knew her preferences, Huo Yao couldn't help but touch the tip of her nose, then slowly opened the second layer of the box.
Suddenly, a thin golden card inside caught my eye.
It was no different from the black card that her biological father handed to her when she first returned to the Huo family two years ago.
Looking at this card, combined with his uncle's tone... Huo Yao had a vague feeling that the character he had worked so hard to maintain had collapsed.
At this time, the uncle's voice came again, "Fortunately, I asked your second brother about your preferences before, otherwise the uncle would be embarrassed today."
There was a look of relief in Huo Jingfeng's eyes as he spoke. He was relieved that he had made preparations for both scenarios, otherwise he would have been embarrassed in front of his little niece.
It would be terrible if you didn't give the right gift to your elders when you met them for the first time.
The corners of Huo Yao's lips twitched, as if he saw a row of black lines sliding down in front of his eyes, "Ha... Uncle, what else did my second brother say?"
Although the voice sounded very gentle and well-behaved, if Huo Tingrui was at the scene, he would definitely be able to sense a strong murderous intent.
"Your second brother has always been afraid of me, so he only told me a few things about your interests and hobbies, nothing else." Huo Jingfeng sighed, not noticing at all that he had sold out his second nephew.
The smile on Huo Yao's face deepened.
Of course, she is the second brother of this dog.
They are afraid of their uncle and yet they provide him with wrong information. It seems they still need a beating from society.
Huo Tingrui, who was far away in China, suddenly sneezed, and his right eyelid twitched a little faster for unknown reason.
Huo Tingrui rubbed the tip of his nose. He always felt that something bad was about to happen.
Huo Yao took a deep breath and closed the box containing the diamonds and gold card again, with no other expression on his face. "Thank you, uncle. I... like these gifts very much."
Seeing that his niece really liked him, Huo Jingfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as you like her."
"Yeah." Huo Yao drooped her eyelashes. If she didn't like it, there might be a bigger shock waiting for her.
So no matter what, her second brother is gone.
"By the way, uncle, you went to the hotel two days ago, but I was busy at that time and didn't pick you up." Huo Yao felt that he should change the subject.
Huo Jingfeng had just breathed a sigh of relief, but when he heard his niece's sudden words, the expression on his face froze instantly.
Then he raised his head and glanced at Huo Changfeng who was standing not far away. When he saw the look he gave him, he said: "..."
He didn't want such a general manager anymore.
Huo Jingfeng thought expressionlessly in his heart, but there was no trace of embarrassment on his face. "It's okay. I just happened to be there that day."
Huo Changfeng next to him silently looked away. His grandfather's character of not changing his expression and making excuses remained the same for decades, but now he has become more skilled.
Huo Yao nodded and did not expose her uncle's face. When her eyes swept across his face again, her brows slightly frowned.
Didn’t Uncle Changfeng say that uncle’s health has almost recovered?
Now it seems that although the surface energy is normal, the internal energy is weak, just like a big tree that has been hollowed out by insects. It looks full of vitality on the outside, but it is actually so weak inside that it can be blown down by an ordinary wind and rain.
Huo Yao wanted to take his pulse, but this was obviously not the right time. After thinking about it, he decided to find an opportunity when he was not paying attention.
