After Xiao Xie spoke to Second Elder, he turned to Huo Yao and said, "Miss Huo, you can leave first. I'll stand guard here."
Huo Yao raised her brow and glanced at Xiao Xie. "Sure."
Before long, she and the Director disappeared from everyone's sight.
Xiao Xie veered his eyes while his men went back to their original positions to block the exit.
The Second Elder's expression became even more unsightly when he saw this. "What the hell?"
"Please calm down." Huo Qing raised his hand and placed it on the furious Second Elder's shoulder. He glanced in the direction where Huo Yao had left and comforted her gently. "Miss Huo is still young and has only just returned. It's understandable that she didn't know how to behave. Don't be angry."
Although he sounded like he was speaking up for Huo Yao, he was actually blaming her.
Second Elder instantly recalled that this so-called Miss Huo was from the countryside and could not help sneering. "Miss Wanying is about her age. Why isn't she as arrogant and rude as she is?"
Indeed, where did they come from? Their horizons were only this small.
How could someone like her be called Miss Huo?
"You can't say that. After all, they have different backgrounds," said Huo Qing with a smile.
One of them was raised by the Huo family while the other was raised in the countryside. How could they compare?
Second Elder looked at Xiao Xie. "Are you sure you want to make things difficult for us because of this country bumpkin?"
Xiao Xie stood ramrod straight and did not back down.
Second Elder was so angry that he laughed. He knew that he would not be able to see Master Feng today. He nodded. "Very well. Don't regret it."
Then he flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.
When the other elders saw this, they naturally had no reason to stay, and they quickly followed the Second Elder into the elevator.
Huo Qing was the last to leave. He glanced at Xiao Xie. "Miss Huo has offended the elders as soon as she came back. I'm afraid she will have a hard time in the future."
Xiao Xie looked at Huo Qing and frowned slightly.
Huo Qing smiled ambiguously. He slowly twirled his Buddha beads as he entered the lift.
After the lift doors closed, Xiao Xie finally snapped out of Huo Qing's mischievous smile.
His eyes darkened. He instructed his men to continue guarding the entrance before he went to look for Huo Yao.

Huo Qing and a few elders went downstairs, and soon everyone dispersed.
Huo Qing sat in the car with his legs crossed. His eyes were looking at the scenery outside the window. He was in a good mood.
Thinking of something, he asked his trusted aide, "Is Miss Wan Ying not back yet?"
The aide glanced at the rearview mirror and replied respectfully, "Not yet. The new forces in the south are a little difficult to deal with. She's still dealing with them, so she shouldn't be back so soon."
Huo Qing nodded. "Call her later and tell her about Master Feng's situation."
The trusted aide was puzzled. "If Miss Wanying can subdue the forces in the south, it will be of great help to her position in the Huo family. If she tells Master Feng about the situation, I'm afraid she will rush back."
"If she doesn't come back, someone will snatch her things." Huo Qing said indifferently.
This niece that Huo Jingfeng had brought back had an aura that was no weaker than Huo Wanying's. Although he didn't know how strong she was, it was always good to be on guard.
The few elders looked down on the girl, but he wouldn't.
No one could be underestimated in the Huo family.
Just like Huo Yulin. Everyone thought he was a pushover, but he turned out to be a ruthless person.
