Chapter 560: What’s The Use Of Apologizing When You’ve Done Something Wrong?

“There’s no need for that.” Grandfather Huo handed the cage to Uncle Zhang with an imposing manner. “She’s already been wronged. How can an apology be enough?”

Huo Tian froze. She wished she could dig a hole in the ground and hide in it.

“It’s the new year today, so I won’t punish you. Go kneel in the ancestral hall for three hours. When you come out, apologize to Yaoyao and ask her if she wants to forgive you. Otherwise, don’t come to the Huo Manor anymore.”

The servant handed him a wet handkerchief. Grandfather Huo took it and slowly wiped his palm.

His tone was indifferent, as if he was discussing the weather.

When the real head of the family spoke, no one dared to make a sound.

It was Dai Shiqing’s first time at the Huo Manor, and she was here as a relative of Gu Fenlan.

In the past, she always heard that the Huos were different from other wealthy families because they still maintained some ancient family rules. For example, the status of the direct line of descent and the collateral line of descent were worlds apart. However, ever since she entered this maze-like manor, this feeling was even stronger.

The servants here followed the rules, and there were bodyguards and security everywhere.

Along the way, she heard Huo Tian brag about how Grandfather Huo loved her.

However, in front of the real future mistress of the Huo Family, her love was insignificant.

Even the way Grandfather Huo looked at her was like looking at a stranger. The people here, including the butler and the bodyguards, all looked high and mighty.

She thought that she was good enough to be worthy of that powerful man.

But now she realized…

There was an entire galaxy between her imagination and reality.

“You don’t want to?” Grandfather Huo wiped his hands and saw Huo Tian still standing at the side in a daze. He raised his eyebrows. “If that’s the case… Someone, send her out.”

“Grandfather—” Huo Tian was extremely aggrieved. She did not understand why Grandfather Huo had changed so quickly.

“No, no, no, Uncle, Tiantian is willing! She’s just scared!”

Gu Fenlan pulled her back and desperately winked at her.

Fortunately, Huo Tian was not that stupid. Tears fell from her eyes and she nodded aggrievedly. “Grandfather, I was wrong. I am willing to be punished, and I will apologize to Auntie.”

“Okay, go ahead.”

Grandfather Huo lowered his eyes. Even though Huo Tian was already so pitiful, he did not show any expression.

Uncle Zhang helped him to the sofa and sat down.

He looked at the reserved Huo Zexi and suddenly smiled.

“Come here, child.”

The old man smiled kindly, as if he was not the one who had been imposing just now.

Huo Zexi took a deep breath and walked over.

“What’s your name?”

“Grandfather, my name is Huo Zexi.”

Grandfather Huo suddenly understood. “The same generation as Ning Xi? He hasn’t returned from his work outside, so he’ll probably be a little late. You should get along with him. Were you the first to greet your Small Auntie earlier?”

Huo Zexi nodded with a red face.

The truth was, Song Yaoyao might actually be younger than him, so he felt a little embarrassed when he greeted her.

But soon, this bit of embarrassment was forgotten because of Grandfather Huo!

Grandfather Huo laughed loudly and waved at him. Huo Zexi lowered his head obediently. Then, he was patted on the back of his head. The old man’s voice was kind. “You’re a sensible person. Go. If you can make your Auntie happy, Grandfather will reward you with a car.”

“Really?!”

F*ck—

Huo Zexi raised his head in surprise, and his eyes filled with excitement.

“This child, your grandfather wouldn’t lie to you.”

Huo Zexi’s parents were overjoyed. Their family was normally insignificant. Every time they came to the Huo Manor for New Year’s Eve dinner, they were always the most neglected. But this year, their son actually received the favor of Grandfather Huo. How could they not be proud?
