Shancai Rebirth: My Choice

On the surface, Mrs. Huo was saying that Ximen Lang was ungrateful, but in reality, she was saying that the Deng He family was bullying others and had made Mr. Huo sick with anger.

She was using the mockery of Ximen Lang to slap Deng Heyin in the face. The subtext was that Deng Heyin supported Ximen Lang without distinguishing the importance of the matter.

Deng Heyin was not so good-tempered, so when Mrs. Huo said this, he "kindly" said that he could help find a better doctor for their Mr. Huo.

His words made Mrs. Huo very embarrassed. The expression on her face was unpredictable and no one knew what she was thinking.

When Mo Yihang heard Deng Heyin say that he wanted to recommend a doctor to Mr. Huo, he covered his mouth and laughed secretly. It was rare that someone could speak better than Mrs. Huo.

"Deng Heyin, you haven't been back to Country K for more than ten years. I guess you are not very familiar with the operations of Country K." Old Mrs. Huo continued with a smile. If you observe carefully, you will find that the emotions in her eyes are on the verge of exploding.

Deng Heyin took a sip of champagne. In the backlight, he could clearly see the expression on Mrs. Huo's face. "Don't worry about this. We, the Deng He family, have our own way of operating. We don't need someone named Huo to interfere, nor do we need someone named Huo to interfere." His tone was neither hurried nor slow, and it sounded like nothing happened, but it was this tone of not taking certain people seriously that was the most hurtful.

Old Mrs. Huo was almost angry to the point of vomiting blood by Deng Heyin's reply. What did Deng Heyin mean?

He actually dared to publicly slap the Huo family in the face!

Ximen Lang coughed lightly, and from the happy expression on his face, you could tell how happy he was when he saw Mrs. Huo, who wanted to morally blackmail him, being confronted by Deng Heyin.

Deng Heyin is worthy of being Deng Heyin. He won't say anything that doesn't hit people's heart. The more uncomfortable the words sound, the more fluently he speaks, just like what he just said to Old Mrs. Huo.

"Master's wife, let's not talk about this for now. Please stay and have dinner with us tonight." Ximen Lang said this very politely, and originally he did not include Mrs. Huo's share.

"Okay." Mrs. Huo said.

Mo Yihang paused for a moment as she held the goblet. What had she just heard? Mrs. Huo would actually stay to have dinner with them? What a joke.

"Mrs. Huo, if you have anything to say, just say it." Dong Shen was watching the undercurrents in their conversations and knew that A Yin disliked Mrs. Huo.

Her silence didn't mean she didn't know. Since she came here for them, they should naturally treat her well.

Old Mrs. Huo looked at Dong Shen with disdain as he spoke, "You who come from a humble family are worthy of talking to me?" Her tone was full of arrogance and disrespect.

Ximen Lang, who was smiling beside him the last second, couldn't help but break into a cold sweat for Mrs. Huo, his good teacher's wife. Did she know what she was talking about?

Besides his wife, Deng Heyin cares most about his daughter. How could anyone dare to speak ill of his wife in front of him?

"Mrs. Huo." Deng Heyin smiled and looked at the person next to him. "My wife is from a humble family, but she is more noble than you. She is not like you. She can exchange anything for profit."

"Oh, yes. I forgot to say that when we were in Country M, we got along very well with your daughter's family. She didn't even want to mention you when she mentioned Country K." Deng Heyin spoke every word carefully, observing Mrs. Huo's expression and reaction.

As expected, when her daughter was mentioned, Mrs. Huo looked so surprised that she didn't even have time to question Deng Heyin, but fell into deep thought.

Ximen Lang and his wife were watching the show nearby. They had also heard about how Shan Lai was slandered by Huo Cheng, the eldest daughter of the Huo family, a few days ago. Deng Heyin probably knew about it as well. What he said today was just to get back some interest. The real good show was yet to come.

"Deng Heyin, are you going to go against me?" Old Mrs. Huo suddenly looked up, covering her chest as if she was about to fall down.

Deng Heyin didn't even look at her. "Oppose? Why should I oppose you? Or do you think you can fight against our Deng He family with the little capital you have?" His tone became colder and colder as he spoke.

He knew about the injustice his daughter had suffered at the Huo family that day. They had always held her in their hands for fear of dropping her, and held her in their mouths for fear of melting her. They had never said a harsh word to her, let alone hit her.

But this old lady Huo actually slapped her. Well done, the Huo family did a good job!

The emotion in Dong Shen's eyes was unclear. She also knew the grievances her daughter had suffered. The moment she looked up and looked at Deng Heyin, she suddenly became confident, "Mrs. Huo, you should take the time to take good care of your eldest daughter Huo Cheng. Don't discipline her while she is young. Don't wait until she grows up and does something that damages the family's reputation before you think of disciplining her. That would be too late."

She was not a good person either. Her eyes were full of disgust when she mentioned Huo Cheng. Who was the eldest daughter of their Huo family?

They wouldn't think it's a good deal to exchange an unknown young lady for an heir to their family, right?

Seeing that Mrs. Huo suddenly covered her chest, Ximen Lang stepped forward out of humanitarianism to support her and asked her with concern if she was okay. However, Mrs. Huo did not appreciate it and shook his hand away.

Ximen Lang wanted to explain, but his wife grabbed his wrist and said, "Master's wife, the reason why our family is running for election is also based on the interests of our entire family. You also know that the family is the foundation that supports each of us. You are so generous that you should not blame us, Alang."

Old Mrs. Huo was unusually silent and didn't say anything else.

Mr. and Mrs. Simon Lang looked at each other. It would be fine if she refuted immediately, but they were afraid that if she didn't say anything now, he would do some tricks behind her back later.

"Alang, your son is not young anymore, is he?" Old Mrs. Huo suddenly said with a smile.

Just this one sentence made Mo Yihang's heart alarm. What did Mrs. Huo mean by this? She must not think of just giving her son a random person from the Huo family to harm him. The Huo family always puts profit first in everything. Whoever marries their daughter will be unlucky.

"Yes, our son is not young anymore. Do you have any advice for him?" Ximen Lang's tone suddenly turned cold. He wanted to see what shocking words Mrs. Huo could say.

Hearing her satisfactory answer, Mrs. Huo nodded with a smile, "In this case, our Huo Cheng is just about the same age as Ximen, and the nature of our two families is similar. If we can unite together,"

Mrs. Huo didn't finish her words.

"Master's wife, I understand what you mean, but our Ximen is a playboy. He is often away from home. My husband and I are busy with our work and have neglected to discipline him properly."
