As soon as he reached a spot that was about a meter away from Huo Xian, the latter suddenly raised his cane and was all ready to hit Huo Zihang with it.

  Huo Zihang subconsciously leaped backwards, completely angering Huo Xian with that action of his.

  “Bastard, how dare you continue hiding? Get your a*s here and stand properly. Keep hiding and I’ll tell your brother to terminate all your cards and confiscate your car and properties. You will be stripped off of your position as the CEO of TG Entertainment too.”


  ‘Damn it, Grandpa, you’re so brutal!’


  Huo Zihang walked over and stood still in an unusually pitiful manner.

  As soon as he did, Huo Xian’s cane had already landed on him, causing him so much pain that he gritted his teeth, and his face turned red.

  ‘Grandpa is more violent than Second Sister-in-law!’


  Immediately afterwards, the cane struck him again. The sound was so loud that even Yan Jinyi couldn’t help but have her eyelids twitch.

  ‘Huo Xian doesn’t make any exceptions even when hitting his own grandson!’


  Seeing it, Shen Yan couldn’t bear to let Huo Zihang continue getting beaten up and thus quickly stepped forward to explain, “Grandpa, stop hitting him and simmer down. Yan Xin was obviously lying. No matter how much of a playboy Zihang may be, he has a moral bottom line.”


  “Regardless of whether that baby belongs to Zihang or not, this wouldn’t have happened if he didn’t go round toying with women.”


  Yan Jinyi chimed in, “Grandpa is right. If not for the fact that Huo Zihang went out getting involved with women, why would the matter with Yan Xin have happened? Previously, he got involved with a model who came forth to make him acknowledge her child, but I chased her out too.”


  Looking at Yan Jinyi’s face, Huo Xian’s face finally eased up and he asked, “Jinyi is right. I heard from Uncle Zhang that you hit him with the feather duster twice?”


  “Yes, he can’t go without a beating. Since the members of the Huo Family have to be resistant to beatings, we must show the others.”


  Huo Xian agreed. “Yes, the members of the Huo Family have to be resistant to beatings.”


  Huo Zihang thought, ‘Second Sister-in-law, since when have you become such a dog?’


  The impact of Huo Xian’s cane was much greater than Yan Jinyi’s feather duster. Huo Zihang felt like there was pain all over his body, especially in his back, which he thought must have already been cut open! However, he had no choice but to remain standing still.

  Fortunately, when he was a child, he was forced to train with the guards for a while. Otherwise, he would have been knocked unconscious!

  Huo Zihang stood still while Yan Jinyi and Shen Yan chatted with Huo Xian. Even Huo Qingyuan was treated better than him.

  In the blink of an eye, dinner time arrived.

  “Old Master, is it time to eat?” Zhang Guoquan walked in with the tablet and bowed respectfully to Huo Xian.

  After chatting with his two granddaughters-in-law for a while, Huo Xian finally felt a little better. “Well, let’s eat, it’s getting late.”


  After they got seated, Huo Zihang was ready to go to the dining room, but Huo Xian chastised sternly, “Who said you can move? Do you think you’re fit to eat?”


  Huo Zihang desperately tried to force himself to cry while Yan Jinyi said again, “Yeah, do you think you deserve to eat after creating so much trouble?”


  “Yan Jinyi, you, you…”


  Gritting his teeth, Huo Zihang moved his head to the side and thought, ‘Fine, I won’t eat then, who cares for a meal like that!?!’


  Usually, Huo Xian’s meals were light and bland, but tonight, the chefs prepared hotpot for dinner.

  The moment the hotpot was served, the entire space in the hall on the first floor was filled with a heavenly aroma.

  Yan Jinyi and Huo Qingyuan kept exclaiming emotionally as they ate.

  Huo Zihang couldn’t help but glance at them with his peripheral vision, only to see that Yan Jinyi had just cooked some duck meat in the hotpot and was about to put it in her mouth.

  He swallowed some saliva.

  His Adam’s apple bobbed and he was staring wide-eyed.

  ‘I really want to eat it. I’m so hungry, it’s been almost a month since I had hotpot! Is hotpot actually that fragrant?’
