We’re heading to Bishui Villa to drive away that family of troublemakers!”
The housekeeper stalled, his expression sowhat tense.
He…
didn’t dare!
Sensing the housekeeper’s unwillingness to act, Huo Qi angrily declared, “If none of you dare to go, I will!
If Huo Yuan is able to co back, then let him find to settle the score!”
After saying his piece, he flicked his sleeve and stormily led a group out.
He had thought that, given his status as the Second Old Master, driving away a few outsiders from his nephew’s house should have been a re handwave.
But when he arrived at Bishui Villa, he found the situation to be far from that simple; he couldn’t even get through the door, let alone evict anyone!
The gate-keeping servant sternly stated, “Second Old Master, the Young Master once said that without his permission, no one is allowed into Bishui Villa.
Please don’t make things difficult for !”
Huo Qi was livid, pointing at the servant, “Outrageous!
You insolent servant, you’ve turned your back on everything.
I must go in today, no matter what…”
Seeing his attempt to break in, the gatekeeper waved his hand and imdiately, a dozen robust servants erged from within, carrying cudgels and bearing grim expressions as they looked at Huo Qi.
Clearly, they had no respect for the Second Old Master’s authority.
Even though Huo Qi was frustrated and infuriated, he didn’t dare to force his way in.
The crowd he faced was intimidating, and the houseboys were sure to beat him if he tried.
He couldn’t afford a personal loss; but if he simply turned back and left, especially after publicly declaring in front of the entire Huo Family that he ca to evict people, it would not only undermine his authority in front of the family, but also his own dignity!
Just as he was stuck in this dilemma, he saw a horse carriage bearing the Huo Family’s insignia coming their way.
The servants all bowed their heads respectfully at the sight of the carriage.
As the carriage stopped before the crowd of servants, a clear feminine voice rang out, “What’s going on here?
Who’s causing a ruckus?”
The gatekeeper nervously answered, “Miss Mu, this…
”
Hearing the na “Mu”, the anger that Huo Qi had been suppressing erupted, he retorted coldly, “Mu Family Miss, I am Yuan’s uncle.
I presu you’re already aware of Yuan’s predicant.
I’m here to inform you, please leave Bishui Villa as soon as possible.
You wouldn’t want the Old Mada to co looking for you herself, it would be an embarrassing situation for your entire family!”
The person inside the carriage thought for a mont, then replied, “Second Old Master, you intend to establish your power in front of the Huo family by driving us away, don’t you?
So unexpected.
No sooner had Big Brother Huo been imprisoned, than soone eagerly yearning to replace him erged!”
Huo Qi’s intentions were exposed, making his face go red with anger.
He huffed, “What nonsense are you talking about?
I am the dignified Second Old Master of the Huo Family, I don’t need to show off any power, my status is secure!
But your lot, you’ve landed my nephew in jail, do you still have the audacity to continue living here?”
Cai Wei snorted coldly, “Since you’re the honorable Second Old Master, then what you should be doing now is making efforts to rescue Big Brother Huo instead of rushing to drive us, who are irrelevant to the matter, away at such a crucial ti.
We were invited to stay here by Big Brother Huo – only he can decide our fate.
As for others, they don’t have the authority!”
Huo Qi, irked by Cai Wei’s defiant attitude, pointed at the carriage and retorted defiantly, “I will figure out how to save my nephew for sure.
But you lot, you put my nephew behind bars, do you even have the face to stay here?”
Cai Wei responded calmly: “Whether Big Brother Huo was hard by us is known in his heart; and whether you are genuinely trying to save Big Brother Huo is sothing you know in your heart.
However, Second Old Master, allow to remind you that, since you wish to take Big Brother Huo’s place and be the head of the Huo Family, what you should do right now is to try to rescue Big Brother Huo.
Even putting up a facade in front of the clan won’t hurt – it’s much better than the strong-arm tactics you’ve used here in an attempt to assert your authority.
You’ve already lost the upper hand in handling this matter.
Therefore, I can see clearly that you’re not cut out to be a family head.
Your clan mbers surely feel the sa, so don’t waste your ti and strain yourself.
You should go ho and get so sleep!”
