Fake Rich Daughter Is A Scientist From The Future Novel - Chapter 376
376 Affectionate And Loyal
Huo Feng was a youth who was used to staying silent, but at this moment, he was nagging and reminding his father to be careful of his health. This huge contrast made the atmosphere between the father and son seem exceptionally warm.
Huo Feng’s performance was enough to deceive Mr. Huo, making him still immersed in the beautiful dream of a loving father and a filial son.
Even someone like Mr. Huo, who never cared about the kinship between father and son, felt very satisfied after receiving his son’s meticulous care.
Mr. Huo looked at his son, who had made him proud, in relief. He shook his head and said, “I just have a bit of high blood pressure. This has been an old ailment for many years and there’s no way to treat it completely. If there’s a problem with my body, the Huo Corporation will be finished. How can I let the efforts by generations of my ancestors be destroyed in my hands? Little Feng, you might not understand this feeling right now, but when the entire corporation is in your hands in the future, you’ll understand that as the person in charge of the corporation, I have a lot of helplessness in my life”

If Huo You were the one in front of Mr. Huo now, she would have gone crazy with joy when she heard her father say that he would be handing the family business to her in the future. However, Huo Feng was not someone like Huo You who would lose his cool. He didn’t look agitated at all. He didn’t even take Mr. Huo’s words to heart and smiled indifferently.
Huo Feng said softly, “Dad, I’m not in high school yet. It’s going to be at least another decade or so before I can take over the family’s business. There’s no need to think so far ahead for the time being. You have to take care of yourself.”
Huo Feng’s actions made Mr. Huo believe that he wasn’t as ambitious as Huo You and wouldn’t try to enter the family business early to chase away the current leader, who was also Mr. Huo, off the stage. This made Mr. Huo feel even more relieved.
He thought to himself that, as expected, the son he had personally nurtured himself was more to his liking.
He let out a long sigh and when he spoke, there was a rare hint of sincerity. “Little Feng, I’m not joking. What happened today made me realize that I’m already old and not as driven and motivated as I was when I was young. Maybe in a few years when you grow up and can shoulder more responsibilities, I’ll be able to put the Huo Corporation in your hands without worry.”
Huo Feng was still smiling as he said helplessly, “Dad, don’t think too much. Your health is the most important thing now. Take a rest first. I’ll go see if the family doctor is here, okay?”
Mr. Huo could tell that Huo Feng still hadn’t taken his words to heart. This made Mr. Huo feel relieved and helpless. This son was good in every way, but he didn’t have Huo You’s ambitions. As the heir to a wealthy family, this wasn’t a good point.
However, it was precisely because he had such an heir that Mr. Huo was more at ease. Even though he had said those words very nicely, he did not want to hand over the power in his hands to his son too early.
Hence, Mr. Huo found a way out for himself and muttered to himself, “Yeah, he’s still a child. Fortunately, I can still work hard for another few decades. When I’m old enough and unable to work anymore, it won’t be too late to pass the family business to Huo Feng”
Mr. Huo temporarily forgot about the danger the Huo Family was facing and lay in bed with his eyes closed. After a while, he fell asleep.
The servant lowered her head and agreed. She even sighed secretly in her heart. Her young master was indeed the most humane one in the entire family. Clearly, when their master was busy, he would not remember to show any concern for the young master for a few months. However, when the master was feeling a little unwell, the young master got so nervous. Who would have thought that such a gentle and filial youth would grow up in a family with minimal kinship?
Huo Feng did not know that the servants at home had already mostly seen the true nature of this family, but he did not mind exposing the Huo Family’s hypocrisy and coldness to others. However, if Huo Feng knew that he was considered the most affectionate and loyal person in the Huo Family’s eyes, he might find it ridiculous.
