Capítulo 1838: Chapter 1856: Erging from the Mist (Part 8)
Without the hustle and bustle, Granny Huo would definitely be unhappy.
“If I’d known it would be like this, Granny Huo shouldn’t have returned to the Imperial City.”
“There’s no choice!” Huo Kewei shrugged helplessly, “Grandma Zhou had to co back, just like my uncle had to.”
The Huo Family, whether n or won, never avoid responsibility. They always courageously shoulder what they must. Even if life becos mundane and ordinary, they still enjoy it all the sa.
This is the attitude of Zhou Yongxian and Huo Beijiang.
“You know that my uncle is now the pillar of the Huo Family, but do you know who is the Dinghai shenzhen of our family?”
“Your grandfather?” Nan Fei instinctively said.
Huo Zhenchuan has the highest rank, seniority, and status in the Huo Family currently, and he’s also an influential figure in the Northern Military District.
Huo Kewei shook his head with a wry smile, “No.”
Nan Fei suddenly realized, “It’s Granny Huo!” Her tone was not a question but a statent.
Clearly, the achievents Zhou Yongxian once attained were no less than those of the late Elder Leader Huo, and her existence is like a Dinghai shenzhen. The untily deaths of Elder Leader Huo’s first wife and Huo Dongfeng’s wife demonstrated how dangerous the Special Action Departnt was.
Zhou Yongxian being able to retire unhard was no simple feat, and the resources and connections she once had in the Special Action Departnt are intangible political assets.
Nan Fei finally understood why Huo Linong always remained just an ordinary teacher, why he moved to the school and led a reclusive, low-profile life upon returning to the Imperial City. It was because he was not only Elder Leader Huo’s son but also Zhou Yongxian’s only son, a sensitive identity.
It must have been a great blow to Huo Linong, with his wife’s death and his beloved mother living away from the family in a nursing ho like a prison.
Nan Fei understood everything!
She almost figured out Ji Changfeng’s true intentions for seeking her out repeatedly. Most likely, the Special Action Departnt is now at its most chaotic, with power transitioning between old and new forces, and no one can truly control this giant. So he needs a pawn, or even a puppet, to help him settle all this.
Who could be more suitable than her with her identity?
The new head of the Huo Family’s wife, and also the sister-in-law of the fourth-generation head of the Special Action Departnt, is the perfect candidate.
“The Huo Family was once inseparably linked to the Special Action Departnt, but they’ve sacrificed too much and have long grown weary. So, after my father and great-grandfather passed away, my uncle decisively severed all interests with the Special Action Departnt. One of the reasons for my uncle’s decision was to protect you.”
“But I’m still being targeted.”
“Yes!” Huo Kewei showed a mischievous smile, “I guess Uncle is soon going to lay his cards on the table with you.” Hahaha… Uncle would never have expected to intercept, I hope he’s not too mad.
Nan Fei smiled softly, “It’s okay! I’ll pretend I don’t know anything.”
“Thank you, Aunt.”
“You’re welco!” Now that I’ve found out everything I wanted to know, Nan Fei reciprocated, “If there’s anything I can help you with, just let know.”
“I’ve been waiting for Aunt to say that.” Huo Kewei put away his smile, his eyes filled with sadness and anger, “My father’s death was too sudden and unexpected. After he passed, I found out that Uncle has been conducting a secret investigation. When Uncle Yin Nan returned from the south, I knew my father’s cause of death was definitely no accident.”
