Chapter 121 If he were to choose, he would choose Qiao Chuchu
Qiao Chuchu's heart tightened and she felt a little uncomfortable.
"Huo Yunzheng, we..."
Hearing his wife speak, Huo Yunzheng perked up and listened carefully, yet felt a little nervous.
Is she going to divorce him?
impossible!
Even if he died, she would never agree to a divorce! They were one as husband and wife, and they would never be separated!
Before Qiao Chuchu could say anything, the doorbell rang.
There were suddenly four more people in the huge living room, but it was not lively at all. The temperature of the whole room dropped to freezing point in an instant.
Huo Ziyan did not go to school, and Qiao Chuchu did not go to work. She sat there, watching Huo Yunzheng standing in front of her biological parents and grandfather, as if he was being judged.
"Are you the boy from the Huo family, the grandson of that old man Huo Liancheng? You have so many tricks up your sleeve. What is your purpose in getting close to my granddaughter?" The old man from the Jing family spoke with a scrutinizing look.
Jing An also glared at Huo Yunzheng angrily. He could no longer hold back his anger since he learned about this man's true identity yesterday.
He deliberately concealed his identity, married Xiaoxi, and lied for so long. Who knows what he really wants to do?
Also, he forcibly took Xiaoxi away yesterday. This guy is totally unreasonable. We don’t know whether Xiaoxi was bullied by him!
How dare he treat his sister like this? If he hadn't been alone yesterday without anyone else, he would have been beaten to death!
"Grandpa Jing, when Chuchu and I got married, we didn't know she was Jingxi."
Old Master Jing and Jing Xiuyuan looked at each other. What he said was the truth. This boy and Xiaoxi got married first, and they got to know Xiaoxi later.
If we insist that he has some ulterior motive, it would be slandering him.
"After you knew Xiaoxi's identity, you kept it a secret. I guess you also knew that our Jing family has a feud with your Huo family."
Huo Yunzheng nodded, "Yes."
This is also the real reason why he has been hiding it.
"In that case, you two should get a divorce. Our Jing family and the Huo family will never be friends for generations to come. Our children will never marry into the Huo family and be bullied by them."
On the side, listening to what her father-in-law said, Su Yihui was a little hesitant.
She looked at her daughter's expression, wanting to know what she was thinking.
Although they had just recognized Xiao Xi and didn't know much about her marriage, she could see that there was affection between the two people.
"We won't get divorced." Huo Yunzheng said nervously. In the past thirty years, he had never felt so anxious and scared.
"Humph!" The old man of the Jing family looked at him coldly, "You alone have no say."
The old man turned to look at his granddaughter, "Xiao Xi, what do you think? Do you want to break up with him? Grandpa will introduce you to someone better later. What do you want with a liar like him?"
Because of Huo Yunzheng's identity, he had been completely denied in front of the Jing family. There was no way the Jing family would acknowledge him as their grandson-in-law.
All eyes were focused on Qiao Chuchu, and Huo Yunzheng was sweating.
"Grandpa Jing, I know you are unhappy with me. Chuchu is preparing for the exam now. Let's not force her to make a decision. Let's talk about this after she finishes the exam, okay?" Huo Yunzheng spoke earnestly.
He saw his wife's hesitation. She didn't ask for a divorce immediately because she had him in her heart.
"take an exam?"
Jing Xiuyuan and Su Yihui didn't know that their daughter was preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination. After hearing what Huo Yunzheng said, Su Yihui immediately spoke up.
"Dad, how about we take it easy and give Xiaoxi some time, wait until she finishes the exam?"
Old Master Jing glanced at Huo Yunzheng. How could someone who had experienced decades of ups and downs not be able to see what Huo Yunzheng was thinking?
This guy is trying every possible means to delay.
"Since Xiaoxi is going to take the exam, then come back to Jing City with us and prepare for it quietly, so as not to be disturbed by some malicious people."
Old Master Jing was angry. He used to praise Huo Yunzheng as a promising talent and said that Xiaoxi had good vision, but when he found out that this boy was the grandson of the old man in the Huo family, he inevitably developed prejudice.
"Grandpa, I haven't resigned. I still have work to do. I can't just walk away."
Jing Xiuyuan persuaded her, "My dear daughter, listen to your grandfather. If you plan to pursue a master's degree, you should quit your job early and come back to Beijing with us. Then you will have more energy to prepare for the exam. Or if you want to study abroad, Dad can arrange it for you."
"Your father is right, Xiaoxi, you should think about it carefully." Old Master Jing said, "We can get a divorce after a while, but there is no need to live in this place anymore."
He was determined to separate his granddaughter and Huo Yunzheng.
When Huo Ziyan heard this, he burst into tears immediately, hugged Qiao Chuchu's legs, and begged her not to let her mother go.
The child cried so sadly that Grandpa Jing felt a little soft-hearted, but his expression remained cold and hard.
"Grandpa Jing, I know that what I concealed was wrong, but please believe me, I, Huo Yunzheng, will only marry her and love her in this life. I will accept it if you want to beat me or scold me, but please give me a chance."
Old Master Jing looked at him coldly, "Anyone can say nice things, but let me ask you, do Huo Liancheng and your father know that you married our Xiaoxi?"
"I don't know yet." Huo Yunzheng frowned, having already guessed what he would ask next.
"If they find out, how will you deal with it? I remember that your Huo family has an engagement with the Chen family. Your grandfather and your father asked you to divorce, what would you do? Tell me, how will you protect our Xiaoxi from being humiliated by your Huo family?"
As Mr. Jing spoke, he angrily knocked the ground with his cane.
He was already quite polite to Huo Yunzheng, even letting him stand in front of him and talk.
He knew Huo Liancheng too well. He was very petty! If the Huo family knew about Xiaoxi's existence, I'm afraid Xiaoxi would be humiliated by them.
The threshold of their Huo family is too high, and their Jing family can’t afford it!
He forced them to divorce so that his granddaughter would not be hurt in the future. It would be better to suffer a short pain than a long one. It would be better for everyone if they divorced sooner rather than later, while the two of them had been married for only a short time and had no children of their own.
"My marriage is my own decision, and no one in the Huo family has the right to interfere. I will protect her and will not let her be bullied by anyone."
"Why should I believe you if you don't give me any evidence?" Old Master Jing looked at him, as if he wanted to find out how determined he was.
Huo Yunzheng clenched his fists. He had thought about this countless times before. If he had to choose between the Huo family and Chu Chu, he would choose Chu Chu without hesitation.
"If the Huo family can't accept her, I can break off relations with the Huo family."
This one sentence surprised everyone.
Jing An's eyes widened. Was what this man said true or false? He was the eldest grandson of the Huo family, the heir that Huo Liancheng had poured all his efforts into cultivating.
Giving up this identity is tantamount to giving up billions of assets.
Is he talking nonsense?
