Chapter 1311 - A 30-Year-Old Old Man

Chapter 1311: A 30-Year-Old Old Man Huo Xuenong slowly turned around. He already made up his mind.

Will? What will?
He looked bewildered.
Are you talking about Guanyuan?

Then, his tears fell.
If my Guanyuan were still alive, would he let outsiders shame his old father?!

Huo Xuenong glared at Huo Guanchen angrily.
I can’t control his son, but you’re my son! How could you let others humiliate me like this?!

Huo Guanchen frowned.
Dad, what are you talking about? Who shamed you?

He was going to say that he wished he were the one dead instead, right?
He could never compare with his big brother…
Huo Guanchen felt extremely sad and lowered his head to look away.
Huo Xuenong pointed at Xie Shenxing and said angrily,
He slapped me in front of you just now, yet you’re still saying that you nobody shhamed me?! Will you only be happy if someone beats me to death?!

Huo Guanchen shook his head helplessly and said,
How can my uncle be considered an outsider? If you say that, wouldn’t mom be disappointed in heaven? Both of you are our elders. Please calm down, please calm down.

As he spoke, he walked over to Xie Shenxing’s side and quietly helped him up by the arm, then pushes Gu Nianzhi to the side.
You must be very tired after coming all the way here. Let me take you to the guest room to rest.

He ignored Huo Shaoheng’s question for Huo Xuenong and had no intention of responding at all.
In his opinion, what other time couldn’t he ask about the will?
It was indeed a little too inappropriate to ask on the day Xie Shenxing was visiting.
Although Huo Xuenong wasn’t a good father and Huo Guanchen was very disappointed in him, he wouldn’t embarrass Huo Xuenong in front of the younger generation.
Huo Guanchen couldn’t stop Xie Shenxing from slapping Huo Xuenong just now because they were both his elders. Moreover, Xie shenxing represented his mother, Xie Ziyan’s family, and he did have a reason to slap Huo Xuenong, so he didn’t stop him.
However, Huo Guanchen couldn’t just sit back and watch Huo Shaoheng being rude.
However, Xie Shenxing didn’t buy Huo Guanchen’s words.
He looked up at Huo Xuenong and asked in a low voice,
Yes, where’s Guanyuan’s will? Shaoheng asked for it from you, so it should be with you, right?

Huo Xuenong could tell that Huo Guanchen was still partial towards him, so he felt slightly better.
After all, he was his son, and he was still reliable at critical times.
Huo Xuenong snorted coldly.
That’s my son’s will, so what does it have to do with you? Xie Shenxing, if you want me to respect you, you’d better not do those things that make people laugh at you!

Hitting someone in front of so many people, was this the etiquette of the Xie Family?!
Xie Shenxing was so angry that he laughed.
Haha, why didn’t you think that you would be laughed at for coveting your own head nurse?! I feel indignant for my sister, so what if I slap you?! According to our family rules, you have wronged my sister, so we can drown you in a pig cage!


Nonsense!
Huo Xuenong roared angrily.
How can a man be drowned in a pig cage?! If someone is to be drowned, a woman will have to be drowned!


Men and women are equal, Huo Xuenong. Didn’t your organization teach you that?
Xie Shenxing put his hands behind his back and said sarcastically,
Oh yes, you have been stripped of your military rank and expelled from the army. It’s over. Your organization doesn’t want you anymore. How can you still have the face to live here?


This is my son’s home! I can live here as long as I want!
Huo Xuenong’s face grew pale from anger.
This was extreme humiliation for him.
He had been ambitious and hard-working his entire life. He was one of the top figures in the entire Huaxia Empire’s military, but he was brought down by a scandal in old age.
Huo Xuenong hated Zhang Feng for not being able to keep her mouth shut and dragging him down, but he also hated Gu Nianzhi for exposing this matter and causing a ruckus in the city!
Otherwise, how could he have ended up like this? !
He would never let her in!
She schemed against her senior, and now she wanted to become his granddaughter-in-law?!
Not a chance!

Alright now, don’t use these excuses to distract us.
Huo Shaoheng calmly interrupted them.
The military has records that my eldest uncle left a will before carrying out his mission and handed it over to grandfather.

Even the military records check out. This matter wasn’t so easy to clean up.
Huo Xuenong’s heart sank. He quickly glanced at Luo Jialan, then took a step forward and pointed at Xie Shenxing. He said angrily,
Aren’t you afraid of retribution for slandering me like this? ! It was an accident with Zhang Feng! An accident! Ah!

He clutched his chest, then his face suddenly wrinkled and turned purple. Gasping for breath with one hand waving in the air, he shouted,
Why is there a power outage?! Where’s the light?! Why isn’t the light on?!

Then, he took two steps back and bumped into the corner of the coffee table.
He lost his balance and fell backward with a loud bang, knocking the coffee table over.

Dad!
Huo Guanchen was so anxious that he rushed up and embraced Huo Xuenong. However, he saw that Huo Xuenong’s face was pale and he had fainted.
Luo Jialan also ran over and said,
Grandpa Huo, your angina is acting up again. I have Nitroglycerin tablets here!
As she said that, she took out a small medicine bottle, poured out a pill from it, and handed it to Huo Guanchen.
Huo Guanchen glanced at her. He thought that she wouldn’t dare to give him a poison to kill Huo Xuenong in front of everyone, so he took it and stuffed it into Huo Xuenong’s mouth. Then, he immediately said,
Call the hospital and call an ambulance!

Luo Jialan quickly took out her phone to make a call.
Not long after, the ambulance stopped at their door with the siren blarring. Huo Guanchen carried Huo Xuenong into the ambulance.
Luo Jialan seized the opportunity to get into the ambulance and follow them to the emergency room of the Military General Hospital.
Although Huo Xuenong no longer had a military rank, his son, Huo Guanchen, and his grandson, Huo Shaoheng, were both powerful figures in the military.
The military general hospital didn’t dare neglect them and sent the best team of doctors and nurses to treat him.
It had only been ten minutes since they pushed him into the emergency room when Huo Xuenong slowly woke up.

The patient’s mood isn’t very stable. It’s recommended that he stay in the hospital for observation for a night. He will be discharged after the data indicators are normal.

The chief physician of the Cardiology Department of the military’s general hospital looked at the data that was detected by the equipment and advised Huo Guanchen.
Huo Guanchen nodded.
It’s best for him to stay for a few more days.

The moment his uncle Xie Shenxing saw Huo Xuenong, it was as if he had met his sworn enemy. Huo Guanchen also felt his head ache.
No matter how wrong his old father was, Huo Guanchen couldn’t continue to force him to do anything as he looked like he was on the verge of death.
Luo Jialan quickly said,
Uncle Huo, you should go back first. I’ll take care of things from here. You’re getting old. Staying up late isn’t good for your health.

Huo Guanchen still had to go down to the basic level to check on work tomorrow. Even if he wanted to stay here to accompany Huo Xuenong, he didn’t have the time.

Jialan, you should go back. I’ll call the orderly to come over and take care of him. It’s not appropriate for a girl like you to stay here.
Huo Guanchen didn’t want Luo Jialan to have too much contact with Huo Xuenong.
However, Huo Xuenong stopped her. He said weakly,
Guanchen, let Jialan stay here with me. She has taken care of me for almost two years. She’s more dedicated than others. What’s there to be worried about?

Huo Xuenong was the only person in the Huo family who was kind to Luo Jialan now.
Huo Guanchen also knew that if Luo Jialan didn’t want to lose all ties with the Huo family, she would serve Huo Xuenong wholeheartedly.
Huo Guanchen’s wife was supposed to do this kind of thing, but he didn’t have a wife right now.
Huo Shaoheng’s little fiancée, Gu Nianzhi, was prissy yet also hot-tempered. Not to mention take care of him, but the moment she appeared in front of Huo Xuenong, the two of them would probably buttheads.
If that happened, Huo Xuenong would probably be so angry that he would die.
Huo Guanchen didn’t dare take the risk. After much thought, he called his orderly over and had him and Luo Jialan stand guard in front of Huo Xuenong’s sickbed before leaving in a hurry.
..
Huo Shaoheng watched the ambulance leave from the door. He walked back and said to Xie Shenxing,
Granduncle, I’m really sorry for making you watch this farce. My grandfather suddenly fell ill, and I don’t think he’ll have time to see you for a while.


Ah, it’s okay. I’ll call a cardiologist we’re familiar with. He’ll come here tomorrow to examine him.
Xie shenxing shook his head indifferently.
It’s getting late. I really need to rest. I’m still jet-lagged

Huo Shaoheng winked at Gu Nianzhi and asked her to take Xie Shenxing to the guest room upstairs.
Gu Nianzhi took them upstairs to the guest room and carefully checked the facilities in the room.
The toiletries were all brand new, and there were new sheets on the bed. She opened the refrigerator to take a look. There were bottles of mineral water and snacks inside — they were all fresh.
Xie Shenxing’s two staff members also searched the entire room.
Gu Nianzhi didn’t fuss any further. She said to the two staff members,
If you guys need anything, you can call this number. This is the internal line. Connect me to the orderly’s internal affairs room.


Okay, got it.
The two staff members treated Gu Nianzhi coldly. They didn’t even look at her and simply sent her away.
Gu Nianzhi thought it was strange. She hadn’t offended these two people, had she?
Why did they treat her with such hostility?
It was as if she owed them 800 pounds.
Gu Nianzhi closed the door in confusion and left Xie Shenxing’s guest room.
She didn’t have her own room in the Huo Mansion. She had one in the past, but something had happened, so she had stayed in the first-floor suite with Huo Shaoheng.
Today was no exception. They were already engaged to each other in the eyes of outsiders, so it was fine for them to stay together.
Gu Nianzhi came down from the second floor and went straight to Huo Shaoheng’s large suite on the first floor.
She went to the bathroom to wash her face, remove her make-up, and perform an evening skincare routine.
She came out of the bathroom and saw that it was getting late. She was about to go to the small bedroom to sleep when she came out and saw a glass of milk on the coffee table in the living room.
She walked over and covered her mouth with her hand. The wall of the glass was warm, so it must have been freshly heated. It must have been for her.
Gu Nianzhi smiled and took a sip of the milk. She saw that Huo Shaoheng’s room was still lit, so she knocked on his door with the milk in her hand.

Come in.
Huo Shaoheng’s slightly nonchalant and husky voice came from the bedroom.
Gu Nianzhi’s heart skipped a beat and her ears turned red.
She pushed the door open and entered, then frowned as she complained,
Major General Huo, tell me, what did I do to offend those two staff members? They seem to have a lot of hostility towards me…

Huo Shaoheng sat on the single sofa by the bed in the bedroom. He supported his head with one hand and rested the other on the armrest of the sofa. He stretched out his long legs and gazed at her without batting an eye. He waved at her.
Come here. I’ll tell you.

Gu Nianzhi put down the cup of milk and walked over.
Huo Shaoheng pulled her onto his lap and sat down. He rubbed her heavily.
… A 30-year-old old man? Hmm?

Gu Nianzhi:
…
