Chapter 1657 Deliberately Mentioned
Huo Yao seemed unaware of the shock his answer would bring to Aunt Tong. He nodded and patiently repeated, "This is where my uncle lives."
When Shangguan Tong heard this again, he couldn't help but hold his breath, and he didn't know what words to use to describe the feeling in his heart.
She had never thought that there could be such a coincidence in the world, that the child Ayu would be related to that person.
She knew that A Yu’s current name was Huo Yao, but she didn’t connect her with the Huo family... Shangguan Tong suddenly pulled up a bitter smile at the corner of her lips, maybe this was fate?
She closed her eyes and said softly, "It seems that your uncle is a rich man."
"That's right." Huo Yao continued, and couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, my uncle is so rich, I don't know who will benefit from his property in the future."
Shangguan Tong was startled again, and after a while, he said, "...what do you mean? Shouldn't it be him? Shouldn't it be your uncle's children who inherit it?"
Huo Yao glanced at the hall and sighed, "My uncle had a very hard life. He has no children and lives alone in such a big house. Aunt Tong, do you think he is pitiful?!"
Shangguan Tong felt as if his chest had been hit hard by something, and it was swollen and painful. "Didn't he marry and have children?"
Huo Yao heard the patriarch's voice trembling on the other end of the phone, and his guess was finally confirmed.
Therefore, the person her third brother had been looking for was the clan leader, and after a series of indirect remarks just now, it was not difficult to guess that there was an unknown past between Aunt Tong and her uncle.
One never married in his life, and the other lived in depression all day long as if he had lost his soul.
It is unlikely that these two people have no relationship.
Huo Yao seemed to be thinking about something, and soon she replied softly, "No."
Although Shangguan Tong on the other end of the phone already knew the answer, when she really heard A Yu say it, the string in her mind that had been holding on suddenly broke with a snap.
The phone slipped from his hand and fell to the ground.
Shangguan Tong stood there unaware of anything, his thin body looking like he would collapse at any moment.
After a while, she bent down to pick up the phone. The call number on it showed that the call had ended, perhaps because it had been bumped when it fell to the ground.
Shangguan Tong looked at the phone in a daze, and finally did not call again.
He only let out a bitter sigh.
Huo Yao looked at the hung up phone and waited for two minutes. Thinking that Aunt Tong would not call again, he put away his phone.
Instead, he pushed open the glass door again and walked into the hall.
**
While Huo Yao was answering the phone, the housekeeper came back.
Seeing that the eldest lady was not in the hall, he did not ask much, but just said quickly: "Master Feng, Mr. Fan is still waiting outside, and he also asked me to bring you a message."
Without Huo Yao present, Huo Jingfeng's expression was quite cold, and his eyes fell on the housekeeper.
"He said he has information about the person you are looking for." The butler replied in a low voice.
When Huo Jingfeng heard this, a strong emotion suddenly flashed in his eyes, and his hands on his knees tightened subconsciously, "What else did he say?"
The butler shook his head. "He just asked me to tell you this, and he didn't say anything else."
Huo Jingfeng's face actually didn't look good at this moment, on the contrary it was very dark.
Huo Changfeng, who was standing next to him, also frowned. He glanced at Master Feng and then said, "Master Feng, I'll go see him."
