Chapter 180: Chapter 180 – Will Not Admit to Death_1
“Let me remind you then!” Huo Linong pointed to the empty seat across from him, the one Zhou Yongxian usually sat at during meals.
She was not at home now, so the seat was naturally empty.
Huo Jinlan’s mind went blank, her face turned dreadfully pale in an instant, her complexion totally drained of color. She barely stopped herself from sliding off her chair.
Impossible! Absolutely impossible. She had struck when chaos ensued, her actions completely unnoticed, impossible for anyone to discover. Her father must be intentionally trying to intimidate her. It couldn’t be what she was thinking.
Yuan Xueshan noticed her husband pointing at her mother-in-law’s seat. She immediately knew something was wrong. Unlike Huo Jinlan who was unflinchingly brave, she panicked and promptly apologized after realizing she could not keep the secret any longer.
“Linong, your mother is not at home, she went to visit the Jiang Family…”
Huo Linong, who was initially smiling, changed font color abruptly, pointed and shouted, “Shut up!” He’d indulged them way too much that they’re now acting with uncontrollable audacity! To think they could still play dumb in these circumstances.
If he hadn’t returned home or seen his mother yesterday morning, he really might have believed her words.
Yuan Xueshan’s complexion was even worse than Huo Jinlan’s, she stumbled and fell onto the ground. “You… you actually talked to me this way?” Her son was so outstanding; she thought she was important because of him, and her husband or mother-in-law never spoke harshly to her.
So when she was suddenly treated this way, her first reaction was of anger, fury, and disbelief.
But not of concern.
Huo Linong curled his lips into a cold smile, his entire demeanor radiating an aloof arrogance that held everyone at bay. He was a stark contrast from the gentlemanly Principal Huo he typically portrayed.
It was as if he was a completely different person.
Yuan Xueshan’s furious thoughts instantly sobered up, and she fearfully took a step back.
Huo Linong ignored her and turned to Huo Jinlan, his tone still elegant, “Jinlan, have you not figured it out yet?”
Huo Jinlan bit her lip tightly, after seeing this side of him, she was even less inclined to admit. When she pushed that person, she’d decided that she would never admit to it, no matter what. If she did, she would be doomed.
Never mind staying in the Huo Family, she wouldn’t even get a chance to marry her brother in the future.
Thinking of this, her eyes quickly teared up, and tears pooled in her eyes. This was genuine grievance, without any pretense or affectation, she truly felt wronged.
She didn’t want to do this either!
Who was it that Zhou Yongxian was always meddling, opposing her decision to marry her brother? If Zhou Yongxian hadn’t set her brother up with an arranged marriage, she would’ve been his woman long ago.
Not just a so-called sister.
She didn’t want to be his sister, she just wanted to be his woman. The one he held in his arms, the one he pampered.
She loved her brother so much, even though there were many suitors at school, she didn’t spare them a glance, and devoted herself to her brother.
Her love was so painful, so humble, she could give up anything for her brother.
It was such a simple request, and yet Zhou Yongxian just had to stand in her way.
Who could she blame?
Zhou Yongxian was responsible for her own death.

She was the dignified Miss of the He Family. Where was she not good enough for her brother, and how did she fall short compared to that wretched Jiang Nanfei?
“Father, there’s nothing else.” Huo Jinlan bit her lip and stared defiantly at Huo Linong, “I’ve thought a lot, but there really isn’t anything else! I’ve always stayed obediently at home when you’re not around. If there’s anything you want to know, you can ask me directly.”
She had made up her mind, even if Huo Linong had any suspicions, no matter what he brings up, she would never admit to it.
