663: Chapter 652: Huo Qiuran’s Dilemma 663: Chapter 652: Huo Qiuran’s Dilemma “Sis, please forgive us.
We really realize our mistakes, everything was our fault before.
Dad and Mom also said that as long as you forgive us, they can et any request and they also won’t oppose your relationship with Ning Fan anymore!”
After Huo Zhanyuan failed to get close to Ning Fan, he directly went to Huo Qiuran’s ho, not only shalessly knocking on Huo Qiuran’s door but also looking distressed and earnest.
Seeing him like this, Huo Qiuran, as his older sister, was internally amazed.
When did this kid start to be so shaless?
Honestly, Huo Qiuran did not like her brother Huo Zhanyuan, not because she lacked familial love, but because his character was spoiled, turning him into soone who ingratiates himself with those in power and is only tough with the weak—a real bad apple.
The reason she disliked him so much included a big portion of disappointnt and also because Huo Zhanyuan had often spoken ill of Ning Fan at her behest due to Huo Yuanshan’s instructions, so Huo Qiuran hardly ever showed her brother a friendly face.
“Do we need your opposition in my relationship with Ning Fan?”
Huo Qiuran, her face cold, showed no rcy, not caring at all that Huo Zhanyuan was her brother.
“Back then in Jiangcheng, he was the one shouting to cut ties and stopping from coming ho.
How co he has changed his mind and wants back now?”
Huo Qiuran demanded, waiting like a powerful queen for Huo Zhanyuan to respond.
Feeling Huo Qiuran’s imposing aura, Huo Zhanyuan swallowed hard.
He had only recently been frightened by Ning Fan, and now he was being treated coldly by his own sister, Huo Qiuran, which made him feel like vomiting blood.
It really seed like all the thankless tasks were falling on him.
His father Huo Yuanshan and mother Zhou Haiyan were not the ones coming; instead, they sent him, running back and forth.
Not having been received well by Ning Fan, he was almost beaten up.
Coming back to his sister, he didn’t fare much better, making Huo Zhanyuan feel bitter.
Seeing Huo Zhanyuan in this miserable state, Huo Qiuran did not feel a bit of sympathy; he had brought it all upon himself.
“Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, who are you calling?” Huo Qiuran said, her tone slightly disdainful.
“Huo Zhanyuan, have you forgotten how you used to badmouth Ning Fan?”
Huo Zhanyuan then rembered his past actions.
For the sake of minor benefits promised by Huo Yuanshan, he had constantly ddled and tried desperately to drive a wedge between Huo Qiuran and Ning Fan.
One of the most recent disappointing incidents for Huo Qiuran was the arranged marriage with the Shangguan Family.
When Huo Zhanyuan heard that Huo Qiuran was to marry Shangguan Yunyang, he was the first to pressure her about it, and the first to defiantly call Shangguan Yunyang brother-in-law.
That Huo Qiuran even allowed Huo Zhanyuan inside was not because he was her brother, but to see how thick his skin could really be.
As Huo Zhanyuan slowly hung his head, Huo Qiuran felt amused inside.
This guy was rarely so embarrassed.
Now he probably couldn’t even speak, she thought.
Yet, Huo Qiuran had underestimated Huo Zhanyuan’s thick skin.
His face turning red, he looked up at Huo Qiuran with heartfelt pain, as if he had an epiphany, and exclaid, “I was wrong before, it was who was blinded, but from now on, I recognize only Ning Fan as my brother-in-law!!!”
Huo Qiuran was stunned as she watched Huo Zhanyuan.
“Sis, don’t worry.
If anyone dares to speak ill of you and your husband in the future, I’ll be the first to stand up; if anyone dares say a word, I’ll beat them to death!!!”
This guy is beyond saving!
Huo Qiuran thought to herself, completely abandoning the unrealistic idea that Huo Zhanyuan still had any sense of sha.
However, Huo Qiuran genuinely admired her younger brother’s thick skin, and she envied him a little.
In the entire Huo Family, the one who lived the most carefree was probably Huo Zhanyuan, with no great ambitions and only knowing pleasure.
Huo Qiuran’s envy stemd not from anything else, but because this guy was genuinely foolish!
“Sister, my dear sister!
I’m your only brother.
What if I kneel down for you?
The Huo Family now needs Ning Fan as our son-in-law, and it needs you too!”
Huo Zhanyuan cried tears, and his poor acting was laughable, but Huo Qiuran could not laugh because this man was her brother!
Sharing the sa genes and the sa bloodline, but why did the Queen of Zhonghai have such a brother?
Was this guy really her biological brother?
Huo Qiuran could not help but start doubting; this guy had inherited none of their parents’ virtues!
But on second thought, perhaps Huo Zhanyuan had inherited all the faults of their parents, while she had inherited all the virtues?
Thinking this didn’t seem wrong; the more she thought about it, the more it made sense, considering how severe the defects in Huo Zhanyuan’s character were.
Only this explanation seed plausible.
“Have you ever considered as your real sister?” Huo Qiuran’s tone was complex, and there was a hint of sadness in her eyes as she looked at Huo Zhanyuan.
Huo Qiuran asked herself—she had always treated her brother Huo Zhanyuan well, but he never appreciated her kindness.
When she faced pressure from their parents, Huo Zhanyuan had turned against her, leading the charge himself!
Huo Zhanyuan was stunned, his face suddenly stiffened.
“I…I…”
Huo Zhanyuan was at a loss for words, and Huo Qiuran’s question pierced his heart, marking the first ti Huo Zhanyuan had felt such a heavy sense of guilt.
Seeing Huo Zhanyuan speechless, only able to remain silent, Huo Qiuran chuckled self-mockingly.
She did not bla Huo Zhanyuan, only blaming the fact that she was part of a family indifferent to kinship.
Family affections were conditional, never to conflict with family interests.
Whenever these two conflicted, interests were always the primary consideration.
Four years ago, Huo Qiuran had already seen through this, although at that ti she was still deceiving herself, harboring a faint hope that they would not force her into a corner.
“Sister, I…”
Huo Zhanyuan was silent for a long ti, calling out to Huo Qiuran; but when he noticed the self-mockery in her eyes, he was struck as if by a thunderbolt on a clear day, stunned, and his expression changed continuously.
“You can go now.
If you want to visit in the future, I welco you, but let’s not talk about other matters.”
For Huo Zhanyuan, Huo Qiuran still had a bit of tolerance left, but she would not be more indulgent.
Huo Zhanyuan’s face struggled, torn between failing to accomplish what his family had tasked him with and being struck by Huo Qiuran’s self-mockery.
He turned around and walked out, appearing quite dispirited.
“Why must it be sent to do such things!”
