Chapter 416 You've Been Cheated, I Don't Know Him
Huo Tingrui didn't pay attention to his sister's expression, but was stunned for a moment after hearing the old man's words.
Wasn’t his younger sister raised by Old Lady Yang since she was a child?
And hasn’t Mrs. Yang always been a single old lady?
How come a grandfather suddenly appeared?
The old man seemed to see Huo Tingrui's doubts, and then he explained with a smile: "when I was in my hometown, I lived next door to this child. She often came to my house when she was a child."
Huo Tingrui understood it instantly after hearing it.
The old man is Old Lady Yang’s next-door neighbor. He must have taken good care of my younger sister when she was a child. Calling him grandpa according to their generation seems... a little bit wrong, but when I think about it carefully, there seems to be nothing wrong with it.
So, Huo Tingrui nodded politely to the old man, "Thank you for taking care of my sister since she was a child."
Huo Yao: “.”
Well, another fool who got cheated.
It's really unbearable to watch.
The old man glanced at Huo Yao quietly, and when he saw that the little girl didn't want to talk at all, a smile of success appeared at the corner of his lips.
He raised his hand towards Huo Tingrui. "You're welcome, you're welcome. It's my duty."
Huo Tingrui sat down on the sofa opposite the old man and started chatting with him.
Seeing that the old liar and the little fool were chatting happily, Huo Yao shook her head silently and stood up. As soon as she took a step, her arm was grabbed by the old man who was always paying attention to her movements.
Huo Yao glanced at him.
The old man coughed and said, "Where are you going, my dear granddaughter?"
"...outhouse." Huo Yao spat out two words coldly.
Old man: “…”
Pulling his arm free, Huo Yao left the living room.
The old man stared at the little girl's back, "Little girl, you have such a bad temper."
After Huo Yao went to the bathroom, he went to the kitchen, leaned his shoulder against the door frame, looked at his parents who were busy with the meal, and asked, "Dad, how did the old man come to our house?"
While washing vegetables, Mr. Huo didn't pay attention to the name his daughter called him. He just replied, "Didn't you forget to bring your phone to school? I just happened to hear the phone ringing, and then I knew that the old man was in the hospital and didn't know anyone there. Later, your mother and I went to pick him up."
She guessed that was the case.
Huo Yao twisted his fingers between his brows and said, "Aren't you afraid that he's a liar?"
When Mr. Huo heard this, he raised his head and glanced at his daughter. "That's impossible. He said a lot about you."
Huo Yao frowned and said in a serious tone, "You have been deceived. I don't know him."
Upon hearing this, Father Huo put down the work in his hands and said earnestly, "My daughter, we should not forget our roots. Although the old man came from a small county town, he took care of you when you were a child. You can't pretend that you don't know him."
"Your father is right. The old man is in his eighties. What's the point in lying to us?" Song Ning also said.
Huo Yao: “…”
Well, the liar old man not only successfully brainwashed her parents, but also successfully tricked her parents into the same camp.
Song Ning put the fried vegetables on a plate and said, "Okay, daughter, don't stand here anymore. Go call the old man and prepare dinner."
Huo Yao touched the tip of his nose, turned and left the kitchen.
During the meal, the old man stuck to Huo Yao the whole time and even sat next to her. He looked so cautious as if he was afraid of being disliked, which made the other three people present, except Huo Yao, feel sad.
So, the three people at the table took great care of the old man.
As for Huo Yao, he was silently labeled as an unfilial child, "this child is so disappointing."
