C244 The Cause of It

Soong Shiyan nodded nervously and said, "Yes, we have."

"Then, girl, what do you think about Zheng Jinghao?" The old man looked at Soong Shiyan and asked with a smile.

Hearing that, Huo Mingyang's face turned dark. Even though he tried his best to look uninterested in Soong Shiyan, his expression still wasn't that good. This damned old man must have realized what he was thinking about Jing Sung, which was why he quietly returned to his hometown and started to mess around, not giving himself any chance at all.

Soong Shiyan looked at the old man as if she wasn't joking. Hence, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and squeeze out a smile. She followed the old man's words and said, "Zheng Jinghao's character is indeed pretty good."

Hearing that, Huo Mingyang's expression darkened even more. The hand he placed under the table also clenched tightly as the veins on the back of his hand bulged.

The old master looked around and naturally saw all of Huo Mingyang's actions. He looked at Soong Shiyan and continued to smile as he said to her, "Zheng Jinghao is indeed not bad, but since it's a big matter and you're the one who has to decide for yourself, of course, you can also come into contact with him when there's nothing important. As for the other matters, we can plan for them later."

"Yes." Soong Shiyan replied.

Seeing that Soong Shiyan had agreed, the lordmaster didn't speak any further and thus ended the conversation.

Although this topic had already ended, Soong Shiyan still couldn't understand why the old tutor had brought it up when he was perfectly fine. She had always felt that there was another reason why the lordmaster had brought this up, but no matter how hard she wracked her brains, she couldn't wrap her head around what that reason was.

She wasn't the real Heir of the Huo Family. Even if she really did like Huo Mingyang, with the old man here, she wouldn't be able to do anything that would harm her Huo Family. On the other hand, if Huo Mingyang kept his mind on her, then the old man could take this opportunity to nurture the next Heir of the Huo Family. If Huo Mingyang continued to curry favor with her, it would only be a loss of life for her — to the old man, this was a gain without any harm.

Because Soong Shiyan had something on her mind, she didn't have any interest in eating this meal.

… ….

Soong Shiyan stayed at Huo Family for a few days. Although she took advantage of her free time to handle some of the company's matters, she still felt that it was time to return to A City. Therefore, in the afternoon, Soong Shiyan bid farewell to the old man and drove back to A City by herself.

Inside the study room, the butler looked at the old man and asked in puzzlement, "Old Master, you asked me to call Jing Sung this morning and tell her the news of your return. Why is that?"

Hearing this, the old man raised his head and looked at the steward, smiling as he asked, "What do you think?"

"Lordmaster, I can't guess your thoughts." The butler said with a helpless smile.

The old man looked at the butler and smiled. Then, he let out a long sigh and said faintly: "It was Mingshen who called me."

"Why is that?" The butler was puzzled.

"At that time, Jing Sung was together with Huo Mingyang in the amusement park …"

The old tutor didn't say anything else, but the steward understood that this matter was related to their young master.

"I have seen everything that Huo Mingyang has done in this period of time. I also know that he and his mother intended to attack Jing Sung. However, I feel that even if Jing Sung really likes this Huo Mingyang, the two of them would not be able to create any trouble. Old Master, why do you need to mention Zheng Jinghao in front of Huo Mingyang? " The butler was still puzzled.

Hearing that, the old man sighed and leisurely said: "I'm not worried about Jing Sung, I'm worried about Mingshen — — I think that Mingshen's soul was probably taken away by this girl. You know about Miss Lin Family, right? " The old tutor's tone was somewhat sorrowful.

The butler nodded and replied, "I understand." It was unknown why the matter of Miss Lin Family and Xue Family, Young Lord's and Ye Residence Hotel, was exposed. Now, the Xue Clan and Lin Family had put the matter of the wedding on their agenda — in another week's time, they would be marrying Xue Family's Young Lord. "As the butler spoke, he recovered from his shock and said. Old Gramps, do you mean that Young Master sent someone to do the matter of Miss Lin Family? "

The old man nodded his head heavily, and said: "Although Mingshen hid it very well, I still found out — — Ever since Lin Wan's incident, our Lin Family has not interacted much anymore, but our kinship still exists. "Lin Lang is Mingshen's cousin too — but I never thought that he would do such a thing for Jing Sung's sake!"

The old tutor felt a bit heartache. Back then, his good-for-nothing son had caused the death of his most beloved daughter, Lin Wan. Now, this grandson of his had even sent someone to sully Lin Family's precious granddaughter. Sigh, this life is destined, he owes Lin Family!

"He's fine, how could the young master …" The butler could not believe it as he too was filled with grief.

"Who's Lin Lang's marriage partner?" The old man raised his head and looked at the butler as he spoke faintly.

"Xue Family Young Lord, Xue Zhaowu." The butler replied without hesitation.

"Who is the person that Xue Zhaowu likes?" The old man continued to ask.

"It seems to be Jing Sung." The butler said in a deep voice. Then, he understood this reasoning.

The old man shook his head with a slight headache, remaining silent.0

The butler saw the old man's worry and could not help but say, "But, in my opinion, Jing Sung is quite outstanding in every aspect. Although she's not some young miss of a rich family, I know that you're not one of those pedantic people and you don't put so much emphasis on your family background. Since Young Master truly likes Jing Sung, then why don't you fulfill his wish, Old Master? "

"You're right, Jing Sung is indeed outstanding. If Mingshen had her to take care of him, I would be a lot more at ease. But, this girl's background is really too mysterious. Even I can't find her, so her background must be extraordinary. Even her name was randomly invented by her — furthermore, from what I see, the little girl doesn't seem to have any intentions for Mingshen. In love, the one who was more emotional was destined to be at a disadvantage. "If this goes on, the one who will be injured in the end will be Mingshen." The old man sighed.

The butler frowned and nodded in agreement, "So, old man, you want to take advantage of young master's return to arrange Jing Sung's marriage. "This way, I can make Young Master give up on this idea?"

"Yes, it's better to have a long pain than a short one. When Mingshen returned, if Jing Sung already had someone she liked, plus the cheating from Mingshen, she definitely wouldn't forgive him that easily. "This way, maybe Mingshen will give up." The old man sighed.

Hearing this, the butler sighed and didn't say anything else.
