When Huo Xuan heard Auntie Sun’s words, he immediately stood up and hurriedly replied with a cold expression, “Fainted? Alright, I understand. You go back first, I’ll be right there.”
After sending Auntie Sun away, Huo Xuan pondered for a moment before turning to look at Mo Zhu, who was equally worried. “I knew that something unexpected would happen after I made the trip to the old mansion today, but I didn’t expect that they would actually take action on the old master!”
Mo Zhu slowly touched the man’s hand and said softly, “Don’t worry too much. This is the Huo family’s old mansion after all. They can’t let anything happen to the old man.”
Huo Xuan nodded and patted the girl’s hand. He took out his phone from his pocket and quickly dialed a number.
Not long later, the call was picked up and Xu Huan’s voice came from the receiver.
Upon hearing Xu Huan’s response, Huo Xuan instructed coldly, “Send Mo Jiu here as soon as possible. We have to let him resolve the current situation.”
Xu Huan was confused by Huo Xuan’s words. He paused for a few seconds and asked with a frown, “Brother Huo, why are you in such a hurry to ask Mo Jiu to come? Did something major happen in the Huo family?”
“The old man is sick. He suddenly fainted. I’m afraid someone is trying to take this opportunity to make a fuss. I’m not sure about the rest. Don’t ask so much first. Hurry up and get Mo Jiu to the old mansion!”
Huo Xuan didn’t say anything else. After saying this, he hung up the phone and pulled Mo Zhu towards the main hall.
The two of them walked very quickly and returned to the main hall in a few minutes.
Once they entered the house, Huo Xuan and Mo Zhu didn’t even have the chance to see where the old man was when Huo Lian, who was standing quietly by the door, saw the two of them with her sharp eyes.
Huo Lian quickly took two steps forward and stood in front of Mo Zhu. She pointed at the girl’s nose and started cursing, “How dare you come to the main hall! It’s all your fault for saying such arrogant words and causing the old man to fall unconscious in a fit of anger! I didn’t expect you to be so thick-skinned and still dare to come here to get scolded!”
With Huo Lian’s curse, everyone in the hall saw Huo Xuan and Mo Zhu. Kang Ying was seriously angered by Mo Zhu just now and was worried that she wouldn’t have the chance to take revenge. Now that the opportunity had presented itself, she naturally couldn’t let go of the chance to mock Mo Zhu.
Kang Ying raised her eyebrows and rushed to Huo Lian’s side. She glanced at Mo Zhu from the corner of her eyes and said to Huo Xuan softly, “Brother Xuan, all of this was caused by this woman of unknown origin. If she hadn’t come, Grandfather Huo wouldn’t have fainted suddenly! Brother Xuan, quickly chase her out and chase her out of the Huo family!”
“Enough!” Upon hearing the two of them insult Mo Zhu, Huo Xuan’s eyes turned cold as he cut Kang Ying off.
He directly grabbed Mo Zhu’s hand and walked past the two people blocking the way in front of him. As he walked, he shouted angrily, “This is the Huo family! Mo Zhu is the granddaughter-in-law my grandfather personally recognized. As long as I, Huo Xuan, am still alive, I won’t allow you to bully her like this!”
As if he felt that he hadn’t finished speaking, Huo Xuan took two steps forward with Mo Zhu. Then, he turned around and said to Huo Lian coldly, “Grandfather had fainted and you didn’t hurry up to get the doctor to treat him. And now, you actually have the time to criticize my fiancée. If anything happens to Grandfather, I think everyone here can’t escape the responsibility!”
When Huo Xuan finished speaking, not only were Huo Lian and Kang Ying shocked, even the people surrounding Old Master Huo took a few steps back in fear.
Huo Qing and Huo Yan, who were standing by the side and watching the show, lowered their heads and did not even dare to breathe loudly.
Seeing that everyone was making way, Huo Xuan brought Mo Zhu to the soft couch where Old Master Huo was resting.
At this moment, Old Master Huo’s face was pale, and his lips were dark. He looked as if he had been poisoned. Seeing this, Mo Zhu gently tugged at Huo Xuan’s sleeve in an unseen manner. The two of them quickly exchanged a glance in understanding..
