In Guo Huining's opinion, grandfather Huo was definitely the head of the Huo family.
Although he was no longer in the military and no longer had a military rank, his biological son was very powerful.
Huo Guanchen, the general, was obviously very concerned about his father.
The Huo family didn't have an old lady, so grandfather Huo was definitely the most powerful.
No matter how capable Huo Shaoheng was, could he publicly contradict his grandfather and father?
She knew that people like Huo Shaoheng in the system were most particular about personal morality.
If he didn't have personal morality, he wouldn't even be able to get a promotion through the masses.
Therefore, Gu Nianzhi had to suffer in silence.
Guo Huining smiled gently and held Dou Aiyan's hand. "Aiyan, I knew I wasn't wrong about you. Although something happened to your family, it has nothing to do with you. I'm willing to help you. "
Dou Aiyan looked touched. "Huining, after my family's accident, all my old friends avoided me when they saw me or pretended not to know me. Only you treated me the same as before."
Actually, the two of them weren't familiar with each other in the past. They had only attended some cocktail parties.
And at that time, Dou Aiyan didn't even care to know someone like Guo Huining.
Guo Huining had heard of Dou Aiyan's name.
Now, the two of them let bygones be bygones and left the private hospital while chatting and laughing.
..
In grandfather Huo's ward, Huo Shaoheng and Lu Yuan watched from the door for a while.
The Zhang family surrounded grandfather Huo's bed and asked about his well-being. It was indeed a happy and harmonious scene.
Zhang Baochen and Huo Guanchen stood at the side and talked. Both of them had smiles on their faces and were very harmonious and natural.
When Lu Yuan saw this scene, for some reason, he thought of his mother, Xie Ziyan.
When his mother passed away, he was no longer in this world.
At that time, how sad was his mother's heart that she left a will to be buried in the Xie family's cemetery in France?
She refused to forgive grandfather Huo even in her death.
Lu Yuan had always been calm and gentle, but his eyes gradually condensed with wind, frost, rain, and snow. However, he didn't reveal his sharpness and just stood quietly at the door of the ward.
Huo Shaoheng walked in.
He had to see with his own eyes what was going on with grandfather Huo.
Huo Guanchen was chatting with Zhang Baochen when he saw someone coming from the door. He looked up and saw that it was his brother, Huo Guanyuan, and his son, Huo Shaoheng.
He couldn't help but be delighted.
It seemed that although the two of them didn't say it out loud, they were still filial and worried about their father and grandfather.
With that in mind, Huo Guanchen's expression lightened up.
She turned to the door and smiled at Huo Shaoheng, who had walked in first. "Shaoheng, you're here. Your grandfather is awake. It's all thanks to your third uncle this time. "
He turned and pointed at Zhang Baochen.
Zhang Baochen rubbed his hands together and looked at Huo Shaoheng with a fawning expression. However, he seemed more confident than before, and his back was also straightened.
Huo Shaoheng looked straight ahead as he walked past Zhang Baochen. "I don't remember Grandmother giving birth to Third Uncle."
Zhang Baochen was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a hole to hide in.
Huo Guanchen's face darkened. "What nonsense are you talking about?! No matter what, your Third Uncle is your grandfather's biological son! "
Faced with his father's anger, Huo Shaoheng did not argue. Instead, he kept his mouth shut and continued walking towards Grandfather Huo's bed.
Lu Yuan walked in at this moment and stood in front of Huo Guanchen. He said coldly, "General Huo, when you said this, did you think about your mother?"
The corners of Huo Guanchen's mouth twitched. He took a deep breath and said, "Mother has her difficulties, and father has his difficulties. You can't lose sight of one."
"Lose sight of one?" Lu Yuan shrugged mockingly. "No wonder you divorced your seriously ill wife and became an engaged couple with someone like Bai Jinyi. — So it turns out that you had eyes but failed to see. "
"Who are you scolding?!" Huo Guanchen's self-restraint was almost at its breaking point. He endured it again and again to prevent himself from falling out with Lu Yuan in front of the Zhang family.
"I'll scold whoever takes the wrong position," Lu Yuan said lightly. The expression on his face became more and more calm. He had mobilized his professionalism to deal with Huo Guanchen.
Zhang Baochen saw that Huo Guanchen was about to quarrel with this person. He stared at him for a long time and felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen this person before.
Lu Yuan hadn't been back for eighteen years, and he was no longer the same as before. Probably only people who were especially familiar with him could resist his identity.
Eighteen years ago, Zhang Baochen hadn't entered the family yet. He hadn't even met Lu Yuan once. It was only later that he saw a photo of Lu Yuan when he was young at Grandfather Huo's place that he felt that he looked familiar.
However, he didn't think about it at all. It was just that he saw that Huo Guanchen seemed to be very familiar with this person, so he wanted to get close to him.
He walked up to mediate the fight and said, "Second Brother, don't be angry. Auntie died early. If she was alive, my mother … "
"Who allowed you to call me Auntie and Second Mother!" No matter how good Lu Yuan's self-restraint was, he was still angered.
He reached out and grabbed Zhang Baochen's throat, almost pressing him against the wall.
Zhang Baochen was almost suffocated to death. His face quickly turned purple, and his eyes almost bulged out.
He cried out, and his legs were about to turn into noodles.
"Let go!" Huo Guanchen panicked and came over to break Lu Yuan's wrist.
Lu Yuan ignored him and pushed him away with one hand. He sneered at Zhang Baochen and said, "What era is this? Some people are even proud of their concubines and call themselves the sons of their concubines. Wake up, you're just an illegitimate child who can't see the light of day. Besides, your surname is Zhang, not Huo! "
The Zhang family who were surrounding Grandfather Huo's bed turned around and saw this scene. They all cried out in fear.
Zhang Baochen's wife, Qian Shihui, pounced on Lu Yuan like a madman and patted him on the shoulder, telling him to let go.
Zhang Baochen's son, Zhang Wenjie, and daughter, Zhang Wenna, also came over to help.
However, even with their family combined, they couldn't move one of Lu Yuan's arms.
He still grabbed Zhang Baochen's throat forcefully, and gritted his teeth tightly as he tried his best to suppress his anger.
After the Zhang family dispersed, Grandfather Huo finally saw the situation.
Lu Yuan's back was facing the bed, so he didn't see his face. He only saw Zhang Baochen, who was facing the bed, being strangled to death by a tall man. He immediately said angrily, "Who are you?! What are you doing?! Call the guards! Hurry up and call the guards! "
Huo Shaoheng had already walked to the side of Grandfather Huo's bed and looked down at him. He was secretly surprised.
Grandfather Huo was really recovering very well.
If he wasn't wrong, his condition was only slightly worse than the young man who was undergoing surgery on Lu Jin's side.
However, the person over there was still young, and his body recovered quickly.
Grandfather Huo was almost eighty years old. He had been in a vegetative state for a year and a half, but he was still in this state. It was really amazing.
Grandfather Huo lost his temper and looked up to see a tall figure approaching. He subconsciously shrank back. When he took a closer look, he saw that it was his proudest grandson, Huo Shaoheng. He immediately said, "Shaoheng, are you here to see me? Hurry up and save your third uncle! "
Then he scolded Lu Yuan, who was strangling Zhang Baochen's throat. "Where did this lowlife come from?! Hurry up and let go! Otherwise, my son and grandson will just call a few guards over, and you'll have to bear the consequences! "
Huo Shaoheng looked at Grandfather Huo without batting an eyelid. Seeing that his face was rosy and full of energy, he smiled slightly. "Grandfather, who are you calling a lowlife?"
"Who else can I scold?! Of course I'm scolding the lowlife who strangled him! " Grandfather Huo pounded on the hospital bed and shouted. However, after lying on the hospital bed for a year and a half, he still couldn't move his legs.
When Lu Yuan heard Grandfather Huo scold him like this, he slowly let go of his hand, turned around, and came to Grandfather Huo's hospital bed.
Huo Guanchen closed his eyes, not daring to look at this scene again.
Grandfather Huo clenched his fists and watched angrily as the tall man walked closer and closer. He was thinking of taking this opportunity to teach this person who dared to hurt his third son a lesson.
In the end, when the man stood in front of his hospital bed, Grandfather Huo was shocked when he saw the man's appearance clearly. "… You, you, you … Who are you?! Are you a human or a ghost?! "
This person looked almost identical to his eldest son, Huo Guanyuan, who had passed away 18 years ago!
The difference was that Huo Guanyuan was still young 18 years ago, but now he looked old. However, he was more mature and steady, like a famous wine that had experienced the baptism of time. The longer it was, the mellower it became.
Lu Yuan looked at his father with complicated emotions, but his face was expressionless.
He and his younger brother, Huo Guanchen, had been different since they were young.
He was closer to his mother, Xie Ziyan, while his younger brother, Huo Guanchen, liked his father, Huo Xuenong, more.
However, Huo Xuenong doted on him the most. Even if he wasn't close to him, it didn't matter. The son he doted on the most and was most proud of had always been Huo Guanyuan.
Today was the first time he had been scolded in public by Grandfather Huo.
Lu Yuan looked at Grandfather Huo quietly and said calmly, "… I'm a scumbag."
Hearing this voice, Grandfather Huo's pupils suddenly shrank. He suddenly understood, and his eyes suddenly turned red. Soon, he grabbed Lu Yuan's hand with tears streaming down his face. "Ah Yuan?! "Is my Ah Yuan back?!" You're finally back, Ah Yuan! You left so early. Father is sad … Ahhh …! "
Huo Guanchen's face quickly turned ashen.
He had long known that it had been decades. He was about to have a grandson, but in his father's heart, he still couldn't compare to his older brother.
Even if his older brother hadn't been by his father's side for 18 years to fulfill his filial piety, even if his older brother refused to take the Huo surname and would rather change it, his father still only had his older brother, Huo Guanyuan, in his eyes.
Lu Yuan, however, wasn't moved at all.
He pried Grandfather Huo's hand away with one finger at a time and said in a deep voice, "You've mistaken me for someone else. I'm Lu Yuan. Your son, Huo Guanyuan, died 18 years ago. Have you forgotten the title of a martyr given by the military? "
"But … but …" Grandfather Huo grabbed Lu Yuan's hand again and said eagerly, "But you clearly look the same as him!"
"People are just alike." Lu Yuan was determined not to acknowledge Grandfather Huo.
He was a little uncertain at first, but when he heard Grandfather Huo ask Huo Shaoheng to call Zhang Baochen "Third Uncle", he confirmed his decision.
He was so disgusted that he almost vomited the food he had eaten the night before.
