Chapter 907: I Beg You to Shut Up
He had truly offended everyone in the Su Family. Everything else was fine, except for one thing. If he wanted to woo Su Yan, the Su Family definitely would not let him off easily! They already thought that he was scheming and had played tricks, for sure.
The Su Family wouldn’t believe him. Given his usual actions and the ridiculous rumors that had spread like wildfire in the capital, no one would believe him.
The precious daughter of the Su Family could not be deceived by such a playboy. They did not agree. They would definitely not agree!
The surroundings were strangely quiet as all kinds of gazes swept over him. For a moment, Huo Xuanzhou felt quite sad. When he handled matters on a daily basis, he could search his soul and say that he had never let down heaven and earth. He had also lived up to the Huo Family’s rules and more so, himself.
Which of those rumors that had spread like wildfire had not been exaggerated and spread to ruin his reputation? He had not cared in the past because he had felt that it wasn’t a big deal. It was not bad to have a bad reputation either. At the very least, it could make some annoying people avoid him like the plague when they saw him.
However, at this moment, he actually doubted his previous decision because of such a trivial matter. How laughable was that?
“I believe him!” Ling Sheng ran over hurriedly. She looked at Huo Ci and the elders present and said seriously and firmly, “Father, Granduncle, I believe he didn’t do it.”
Huo Xuanzhou’s eyes constricted suddenly, and the nonchalant mask on his face also cracked instantly. The corners of his lips curled up slightly. Tsk, a cat crying for a mouse and pretending to be merciful. He didn’t care that she believed him!
Ling Sheng looked at Huo Xuanzhou. “Sorry, I know you didn’t do it.”
“Sheng Sheng, how can you be sure that he didn’t do it?” Su Cunli had not expected Ling Sheng to be the first to speak up. When she spoke to him, her expression softened a lot.
“Uncle, there’s no need for him to do that.” Ling Sheng took a look at Huo Xuanzhou and paused. “Although he doesn’t have a good reputation, he’s not a bad person either. At most, he’s a little amorous. He’s very tender toward the fairer sex, and is very nice and gentlemanly to girls. He won’t hurt others over such a small matter. He still has his limits and moral principles.”
The corners of Huo Xuanzhou’s lips twitched as he let out a low cough. He shot her a look to prevent her from continuing. Are you praising me? Or are you scolding me? I beg you to shut up! I did it, all right? I admit it!
Huo Ci laughed. The damage caused to him was impressive! She was indeed his daughter!
The Su Family members looked at one another. Sheng Sheng’s words were very profound. She was not just protecting his shortcomings. She was really neutral. In short, although he was not a good person, he would not harm others.
Jun Shiyan stood behind her and looked at his young lady. His eyes were full of affection as he held back his laughter. She had really taken an impartial stand and spoke for the truth.
Huo Xiao sighed, feeling utterly embarrassed. What kind of mess was this? The biggest failure of his life was raising such a bunch of scumbags. What a failure!
After Ling Sheng’s impassioned speech, there was a moment of silence.
Su Nuo suddenly looked toward the door and greeted his aunt.
Everyone looked over. Su Yan entered and looked at Huo Xuanzhou, who was kneeling in the middle like a sinner. She said, “I believe him too.”
Huo Xuanzhou’s eyes darkened as surprise flashed across them. His heart actually warmed a little as he turned around and saw her beautiful face, which was as pale as a sheet.
When she was at home, the woman was no longer as coolly elegant as she usually was. Instead, she looked more down-to-earth and incomparably beautiful.
She believed him?
She said that she believed him?
These few words actually made his heart throb with surprise. He had never felt this magical sense before, so he was momentarily at a loss.
“Yan Er.” When Su Cunli saw his daughter come out, his eyes were full of heartache and worry. There was also some doubt. Trust him? Trust this scumbag?
“Father, he didn’t do it.” Su Yan had also just learned that Huo Xuanzhou had been tied up and taught a lesson. They said that he was the culprit who had caused her to fall into the water and that he had deliberately planned this.
She had said that he had not done it, not because she had trusted him blindly. However, based on his first reaction at the time, she was certain that he had not done it.
He had panicked back then too and had been shocked by General. He had not known what had happened. A person’s immediate expression and actions could not betray him.
Su Jing gave Ling Sheng an OK sign secretly. He had successfully completed his mission. Sister Sheng Sheng had asked him to inform his aunt.
“Ms. Su,” Huo Xuanzhou nodded slightly and greeted her with a smile.
“You should get up!” Even Su Yan felt embarrassed. Why had they arrested him without telling her anything?
Huo Xuanzhou did not say anything. He only smiled at her. How could he dare get up when the elders hadn’t said anything?
“Father,” Su Yan frowned and took a look at Su Cunli. The more she saw Huo Xuanzhou smile at her, the more guilty she felt.
The clothes on his back had been torn. Her elder cousin had whipped him. She did not know how much force her cousin had used, but Huo Xuanzhou was definitely injured.
How could this group of people beat him without distinguishing right from wrong? They had not even asked her, the person involved, before catching the person to punish her.
Upon hearing his precious daughter’s words, Su Cunli coughed and frowned. His face was still tense. “Get up!”
Now that things had come to this, where Ling Sheng and Su Yan had helped to speak up, proving that he had not done it, Huo Ci stood up as well. He looked at his uncle and smiled, “Third Uncle, although Ah Zhou is used to causing trouble, he thinks it’s below him to do such an obviously idiotic and despicable thing. If he dares to do it, I’ll dare to whip him to death!”
Huo Xuanzhou’s fists clenched and relaxed repeatedly. There was a smile on his face, but he was bellowing in his heart. If you believe me, why didn’t you say so earlier?
Humph! He knew why now. Sixth Uncle just wanted an excuse to hit him! That’s all! He had not hit him in a long time, so his hand was probably itching.
Ling Sheng deeply felt that she should smile out of respect first. Her father had been the one to whip Huo Xuanzhou. In the end, he had already whipped him, yet he said that he believed he had not done it at this moment in time.
Huo Xuanzhou was probably about to vomit to death! What kind of uncle was this? He was too unhelpful and unkind!
Su Cunshi also frowned and glared at Huo Ci. How dare he speak? Given his character, he was not much better than Huo Xuanzhou either!
“Grandpa!” Su Chi led Xiaoqi in.
Xiaoqi’s face was stern as he said firmly, “Grandpa, I found evidence with Uncle Su. My uncle didn’t do it!”
Huo Xuanzhou was touched. He turned around to look at Xiaoqi with tears brimming in his eyes. He had not doted on this little fella for nothing. Look at how considerate he was! Not bad, not bad!
Su Chi looked at the servant who was in charge of looking after General. “Uncle Qian, tell me. What happened?”
