Mrs. Huo is a Crybaby - Chapter 538
Chapter 538: Grandfather, Please Help Me
“You have to know that your uncle didn’t do anything wrong. He didn’t let you down, nor did Yaoyao. You let her go first and you rejected her first.”
In Grandfather Huo’s eyes, Huo Ningxi was like a child with a pathological possessiveness.
He used to have a toy that he didn’t like very much. One day, he threw the toy away and didn’t feel sorry for it. Until one day, he saw it in someone else’s hand, the toy that he had thrown away.
He suddenly realized, ah, this toy was so good! It was expensive, beautiful, and interesting. He wanted to get it back.
However, he forgot that he was long past the age where he could throw a tantrum and get everything he wanted.
In the world of adults, there was no humility.
“Grandfather!”
Huo Ningxi chased after him. He knew that it was ungentlemanly of him to do so, but he was unwilling to accept it.
The fear of losing something that he could never touch again made him deeply afraid.
“Can I ask you to let uncle…”
“I’m sorry.”
Grandfather Huo slowly turned his head. The smile on his face gradually disappeared and his expression grew fierce and cold. If he was a kind elder one second ago, then now he was the one who once ruled the Huo Family.
“I can’t help you with anything, Ningxi. Although you’re not my biological son, I really treat you as my own grandson. So in my eyes, you’re the same as Yunque. If you really like her and think that you can’t let her go, then you can just snatch her away. Even if she has become your uncle’s fiancée, she isn’t married yet, is she?”
“Even if she is married…” Grandfather Huo laughed cruelly, “as long as you have the ability to snatch her away from your uncle, I won’t blame you. I will even look up to you. But what you are doing now, is like a child who can’t get a toy, throwing a tantrum at an elder.
“You’ve grown up. It’s time for you to mature. It’s common for things to go wrong in life. Think of this as your first lesson.”
This time, he did not stop and walked towards the greenhouse.
Along the way, memories of the past surfaced in his mind.
Grandfather Huo smiled. It was a genuine smile. His eyes were gentle, as if he had seen his lover.
Huo Ningxi watched his only hope leave, and the light in his eyes slowly extinguished.
What should he do? He couldn’t even think of how he’d steal his uncle’s woman. Was his uncle intimidating to this extent?
Huo Yunque and Song Yaoyao didn’t notice Huo Ningxi at all. Tang Xinrou looked over casually and saw a lonely figure gradually disappearing in the distance.
She raised her eyebrows and asked, “Huo Ningxi? Where is he going?”
Xu Yue crossed her arms. “I heard that he has already moved out of Huo Manor.”
“Really?”
Tang Xinrou looked at Xu Yue suspiciously. “How do you know everything?”
Was this person a private detective?
Xu Yue looked at her as if she was an idiot. “If you can remove some of the things like dressing up from your mind and listen to others, then you can too.”
Tang Xinrou was furious. “Xu Yue, are you scolding me?”
“No, I’m just stating the facts.”
When the ring was placed on her hand and Huo Yunque held her in his arms, Song Yaoyao still felt everything was a little surreal.
“Gege, did you really agree to my proposal?”
She held Huo Yunque’s hand and looked at the pair of rings with a silly smile.
