C252 Make up Your Mind
As for Huo Mingyang, although he was slightly displeased and resentful, he still sat quietly in his original position without any reaction. Of course, his heart was already raging within. If Lih Jinhsing was really allowed to recognize his ancestors, then wouldn't he have another competitor? Jing Sung wasn't easy to deal with. Now that there was another opponent, it looked like she wasn't someone to be trifled with. Then, how could he fight against them?2
As for Lih Jinhsing, he had a surprised look on his face, as if he never expected things to turn out like this.
"Dad, regarding the matter of recognizing one's ancestors and returning to the clan, I think that it might be a bit inappropriate!" Lih Jinhsing looked at Huo Chenglieh and said carefully.
"You're the son of me, Huo Chenglieh, after all. What's wrong with recognizing your ancestors?" Huo Chenglieh looked at Lih Jinhsing and asked in puzzlement.
"Dad, because of the matter between you and this mother and son, in the eyes of the old gramps, you have already tarnished your Huo Family. If, because of me, my problem had a negative impact on your Huo Family and yours, then, in my heart, I am truly apologetic. " Lih Jinhsing said slowly.
Hearing this, Chiang Shuru and Huo Mingyang were a little dissatisfied. They had indeed darkened Huo Family, but now that Lih Jinhsing had brought it up like this, they were truly unhappy in their hearts. As for Huo Chenglieh, he frowned as he pondered over Lih Jinhsing's words.
He was right about Lih Jinhsing. Previously, due to the matter between Chiang Shuru and Huo Mingyang, the old man was already very dissatisfied with him. There were also many hypocrites in the circle who scoffed at his actions. He was talked about behind his back. If this time, another rumor about him having an illegitimate child outside was leaked, then, not only would his image be destroyed, even his Huo Family would be affected. The lordmaster really wouldn't let him off the hook when the time came.
However, Lih Qiumei was the woman he loved the most in his life, and Lih Jinhsing was the child of the woman he loved the most. If he couldn't make Lih Jinhsing acknowledge his ancestors, he would feel a little unbearable in his heart and feel that he had let down the dead Lih Qiumei.
Thinking about this, Huo Chenglieh frowned and said: "You are not without reason. Since that's the case, let us not announce it to the outside world regarding you recognizing us as your ancestor. We will only do it in the Huo Family, how about it? "
Seeing that Huo Chenglieh seemed to have made up his mind to make Lih Jinhsing acknowledge his ancestors, Chiang Shuru's heart was filled with anger.
For the sake of Huo Chenglieh's property, for the sake of Huo Family, she had already suffered for so many years within the Huo Family. However, Jing Sung had suddenly appeared not long ago. Heir of the Huo Family, who was appointed by the Old Master, would sooner or later snatch Huo Family from Huo Chenglieh. Now, a Lih Jinhsing suddenly appeared. With Huo Chenglieh's love for Lih Qiumei, Huo Chenglieh would definitely leave a portion of his shares to Lih Jinhsing.
Then, after enduring so many years of anger in the Huo Family, was it all for nothing?
Huo Mingyang saw that Huo Chenglieh had already made up his mind to make Lih Jinhsing recognize his ancestors, although he was a bit angry in his heart. Although Huo Mingyang was furious, his expression was still calm. Compared to Chiang Shuru, he was much calmer.
"Dad, after Huo Mingshen's incident, the old man's mood has finally recovered a little. Therefore, I feel that the matter of recognizing one's ancestors and returning to one's clan should be settled slowly and not in a rush. " Huo Mingyang looked at Huo Chenglieh and spoke at a moderate pace.
Lih Jinhsing glanced at Huo Mingyang with an expressionless face, then he slowly said to Huo Chenglieh with a smile, "Dad, I think so too. Now that I have met you and fulfilled my mother's dying request, I am already satisfied. "There is no need for me to recognize you as my ancestor … As long as you can recognize me as your son, I will be very grateful."
Hearing that, Huo Chenglieh's heart was filled with confusion again. He owed his son, who had been living in the outer world for so many years, too much. And this son of his was so sensible, putting himself in his shoes. It made the feeling of guilt in his heart grow stronger.
"Dad will handle this matter, so you don't have to worry about it." Huo Chenglieh looked at Lih Jinhsing, patted his shoulder and said with a kind expression.
Looking at Huo Chenglieh's kind appearance, not to mention Chiang Shuru, even Huo Mingyang felt jealous and resentful at the same time.
"Alright, since this matter has been resolved, you two don't need to stay here any longer. It's getting late, Jinxing still needs to rest! " Huo Chenglieh turned around, looked at Chiang Shuru and Huo Mingyang and began to shoo them away.
Hearing that, Chiang Shuru looked at Huo Chenglieh with dissatisfaction, "What? Are you not going back tonight? "
"I was planning to go back tonight. However, since you and Mingyang already know about Jinxing's existence, I won't go home tonight. We still have something to say. " Huo Chenglieh said in a low voice.
Hearing that, a sneer appeared on Chiang Shuru's face. With a strange tone, she said, "Since that's the case, my son and I will head back first. Stay here with your other son. " With that, she picked up her bag and phone from the sofa, stood up and walked out of the room.
Seeing Chiang Shuru leave honestly, Huo Mingyang did not stay any longer. After bidding farewell to Huo Chenglieh, Huo Mingyang caught up with Chiang Shuru and left the hotel together with her.
Huo Mingyang was driving with a dark and vicious expression.
Seated in the passenger seat, Chiang Shuru looked at the resplendent hotel from the rearview mirror with a cold expression and a sarcastic smile on her face. The two of them have not seen each other for more than twenty years. I'm afraid that even if they were to speak for three days and three nights, they would still not be able to finish it! "
"Mom, my dad said to have that Lih Jinhsing recognize his ancestors. If he really did that, what should we do?" A trace of worry appeared on Huo Mingyang's face.
Hearing that, Chiang Shuru gave a cold laugh and said slowly, "Don't worry! Even if that fool Huo Mingshen is already dead now, with the old man's temper, he definitely wouldn't agree to let that Lih Jinhsing's name appear in the Huo Family's household register. I think that Lih Jinhsing might not even have the qualifications to live in Huo Family. "
Huo Mingyang also felt that Chiang Shuru's words made sense. At that time, the old man only allowed him to enter Huo Family because of his young age. But now, this Lih Jinhsing was not young anymore. Perhaps, he came here to seek a marriage, as he had the idea of obtaining Huo Family. It was impossible to let this Lih Jinhsing enter the Huo Family, and it was even more impossible for him to agree to let him recognize his ancestors!
Thinking about this, Huo Mingyang's expression turned better.
Chiang Shuru looked at the street lights flashing past outside the car window and fell into her thoughts. Lih Qiumei, I really didn't expect that the child in your stomach would have such a big life!
