Chapter 1118 The Han Family’s Gift
On New Year's Eve, Xia Ningxi brought her three children back to the Huo family.
Xia Jingcheng also had a rare break, so he brought a lot of snacks that the children liked and went to the Huo family with Xia Ningxi for a reunion dinner.
Huo Xiuyuan was very happy. He took Xia Jingcheng aside and talked about many things. He also handed over some major projects on hand to Xia Jingcheng.
Xia Jingcheng was flattered.
Huo Jinchuan looked dissatisfied but dared not say anything.
Because Huo Nanxiao didn't say anything either.
Ever since Huo Xiuyuan transferred all of the Huo family's shares to Xia Ningxi, Huo Nanxiao and Huo Jinchuan no longer had any say in the Huo family.
At first Huo Jinchuan was very angry and felt that Huo Xiuyuan was too partial to him, but when he thought about the fact that Huo Nanxiao was now penniless and Xia Ningxi was unwilling to remarry him, Huo Jinchuan felt much better.
When the old man was imparting his entrepreneurial experience to Xia Jingcheng, Huo Jinchuan went to please Xia Ningxi.
Xia Ningxi also noticed that he was too enthusiastic towards her, so she asked, "Why are you suddenly so enthusiastic towards me?"
Huo Jinchuan said: "What do you mean by suddenly? Was I very cold to you before?"
Xia Ningxi said: "You have always wanted to plot against me and use me to deal with Huo Nanxiao."
"You also said that was in the past. Now Huo Nanxiao has given the company to you. He is not as rich as me, so why should I scheme against him?" Huo Jinchuan was very proud.
Xia Ningxi thought about it carefully and felt that what he said was true.
"Now all the things of the Huo family have fallen into my hands. You won't plot against me, will you?" Xia Ningxi was quite worried.
Huo Jinchuan replied: "There is no need for that. I know that I have to eat one meal after another. Since the old man has given everything to you and the child, anyone who snatches it is challenging his authority."
"However, we can cooperate frequently in the future. As you can see, my company has great development prospects. We can make money together in the future."
Huo Jinchuan now just wants to get along well with Xia Ningxi and get some resources at the same time.
This is good. After all his scheming, if Huo Nanxiao were to backstab him, he would really be left with nothing.
Huo Jinchuan is very aware of his own abilities. Xia Ningxi is easy to deal with, but Huo Nanxiao is not.
It is more advantageous to please Xia Ningxi than to target her.
Xia Ningxi was quite surprised: "Do you really think so?"
"Yes, at least I am living a much better life than Huo Nanxiao now, don't you think?" Huo Jinchuan asked back.
Xia Ningxi thought about it carefully and it seemed to be true.
She smiled and said, "Okay, as long as you don't plot against me, we can still live in peace in the future."
Huo Jinchuan's eyes lit up: "The old man was just discussing the Jinghe project with your brother. How about letting me do it? We can share the profits together?"
Xia Ningxi raised her eyebrows: "It's no use looking for me, go talk to dad yourself."
"He has been given to your brother. If I go to him I will just get beaten." Huo Jinchuan still has self-knowledge.
Xia Ningxi said: "Then go talk to my brother. Whatever he says is the truth. It's no use talking to me."
"Okay, let's find him." Huo Jinchuan sighed helplessly.
He was too lazy to talk to Xia Ningxi. Seeing Xingxing bending her little butt to catch fish in the pond, he picked a small fruit from the flower bed and threw it at Xingxing's head.
Xingxing was hit on the back of the head and was so scared that he fell into the pool with a plop, crying loudly.
Huo Jinchuan was startled and quickly ran over to pick Xingxing up from the pool.
Xingxing cried even louder after seeing Huo Jinchuan's face clearly: "Grandpa, my uncle pushed me into the water, Grandpa! Help! My uncle wants to kill me!"
The stars cried louder and louder.
Huo Yuan and Chu Chu both ran over.
Huo Jinchuan was terrified. He didn't expect that his dirty hands would cause such a situation. He apologized quickly: "I'm sorry, I was wrong. Don't cry!"
"Wow, Grandpa, help." Xingxing cried even louder.
When Huo Xiuyuan ran out, he saw Xingxing, soaking wet, crying loudly in Huo Jinchuan's arms. He was so angry that he kicked Huo Jinchuan to the ground.
"Rebellious son, what are you doing!" Huo Xiuyuan gritted his teeth.
"I, I didn't push him." Huo Jinchuan spoke incoherently.
Huo Xiuyuan: "If it wasn't you, who else could have done it? Xingxing is so small, how could he lie?"
"I, I really didn't do it. I just hit him." Huo Jinchuan explained.
It would have been better if he didn't say anything. When Huo Xiuyuan heard that his precious grandson was hit, he became even angrier. He kicked Huo Jinchuan again and finally walked into the house holding the little Xingxing.
Huo Jinchuan was confused.
What made him even more confused was that Huo Yuan and Chu Chu actually pounced on him and started fighting with him. Their pink little hands slapped him in the face several times, making him even more confused.
Huo Jinchuan asked for help: "Xia Ningxi, are you just going to watch?"
Xia Ningxi remained unmoved.
Huo Jinchuan was furious. He grabbed Huo Yuan and Chu Chu and was about to slap the two little guys on the buttocks. However, when his hands were halfway in the air, he saw Huo Nanxiao walking out of the house, looking at him grimly.
Huo Jinchuan raised his hand in the air, but it froze. Finally, he compromised and let the two children beat him.
He is so naughty. Why did he remind Xingxing just now?
Xingxing cried for a long time, probably because he fell into the pond in the middle of winter and got frozen.
Huo Xiuyuan coaxed him for a long time before he stopped, so Huo Xiuyuan wanted to kick Huo Jinchuan again.
Huo Jinchuan was so scared that he didn't dare to get close to the old man, nor did he dare to look at Huo Nanxiao and Xia Ningxi. He could only hide in the corner obediently, and finally simply hid outside the yard.
It was not until dark when the family sat together for dinner that Huo Jinchuan dared to go home for dinner.
Huo Xiuyuan scolded him angrily for a long time.
Huo Jinchuan didn't dare to say a word.
Huo Nanxiao held the little Xingxing in his arms and fed him ginger soup.
Xingxing pursed her lips in grievance and said, "Daddy, my uncle is bad."
"Okay, I get it. I'll kick him into the pool to help you calm down." Huo Nanxiao replied.
Huo Jinchuan's mouth twitched: "I didn't mean it just now."
Xingxing said, "Then why did you hit me?"
Huo Jinchuan said, "What are you trying to catch while lying on the pond?"
"Catching fish." Xingxing replied.
Huo Jinchuan said: "What if I don't remind you and you fall in and drown?"
Xingxing pouted: "Then should I thank my uncle?"
Huo Jinchuan gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, stop talking. At worst, I can give you all the red envelopes tomorrow as compensation. Is that okay?"
"How much can your red envelope be?" Xingxing asked.
Huo Jinchuan said: "One hundred thousand, isn't that a lot?"
"Really?" Xingxing's eyes lit up.
Huo Jinchuan snorted coldly: "How can I lie to you? You can't be angry after I give you a red envelope."
"Okay then." Xingxing agreed.
Huo Jinchuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that the old man was not angry, he finally put his mind at ease and took the initiative to pick up some food for Xingxing.
Xingxing took two bites proudly and thought it was delicious, so he directly instructed Huo Jinchuan to peel shrimps and crabs for him.
Huo Jinchuan had no choice but to serve obediently, fearing that the little ancestor would cry again.
Huo Nanxiao simply left Xingxing next to him and let him raise the child himself.
Huo Yuan and Chu Chu didn't expect Huo Jinchuan to be so useful, so they also ordered him to do something. Huo Jinchuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
However, this New Year's Eve dinner was quite delicious.
The family is quite happy.
When everyone was almost full, someone came to the door.
The housekeeper looked unhappy when he came to report.
"Master, the Han family is here."
Huo Xiuyuan's face darkened: "What are the people from the Han family doing here?"
The housekeeper shook his head: "I don't know, but a gift box was sent over, saying it was for the eldest young lady."
"Give it to me?" Xia Ningxi was very surprised: "Are you sure?"
The butler said, “That’s what the person who came said.”
Huo Xiuyuan put down his chopsticks and said, "Let someone in."
The man who came was a sixty-year-old man, but he looked full of energy. Huo Xiuyuan recognized him.
This man is called Liu Renqing. He is the personal assistant to the head of the Han family. He has worked in the Han family for more than 40 years. When he was young, Huo Xiuyuan often dealt with him.
"Miss Xia, today is New Year's Eve. The head of the Han family ordered me to send you a gift. Please accept it."
"The gift has been delivered. Thank you Miss Xia for saving my life. The head of the Han family has also heard about what Young Master Han did. He will control Young Master Han. Please be sure to accept the gift."
Liu Renqing left a tightly wrapped gift box very seriously and turned to leave.
