Chapter 895: What Exactly Are You Doing?

“Don’t worry about that, Father. My sister will take care of it.” Nangong Lengmo’s handsome face was solemn. “You shouldn’t have come.”

“I shouldn’t have come indeed,” Nangong Lun gritted his teeth. If he had known this would happen, he definitely would not have come to be humiliated!

No wonder the old saying went that people who don’t belong together, don’t get to live together. The old Huo Family had interpreted this sentence exquisitely. The older generation had shed all pretense of cordiality with him in front of everyone. Not only had he not honored his promise back then, but the young one also behaved like this! Indeed, it adhered to the saying that a crooked stick will have a crooked shadow[1]!

Ling Sheng felt that the Old Master of the Nangong Family was definitely very angry. Who knew what he thought of their family in his heart!

However, her father seemed to feel very happy, invigorated and immensely proud. She really wanted to remind him: Father, that’s your father-in-law! If you toy with him like this, what if he doesn’t let you marry his daughter?

Huo Ci was very satisfied today. He had always known that the Old Master of the Nangong Family did not like him. He had not liked him since back then. No matter how much he tried to please him, he had never liked him.

Since that was the case, he should simply maintain the basic courtesy and respect. Why should he lower his head and do everything possible to please him with every possible mean?

He had thought it through long ago. During the time he had been with her, he had already thought it through. He wanted to live with his daughter, not him!

It was even more so now. Since everyone had already shed all pretense of cordiality, why would they maintain this false show of friendship?

Huo Xiao was overjoyed as he beamed at Ling Sheng. “My good granddaughter, what do you want to eat tonight? Grandpa will get the kitchen to prepare it.”

Ling Sheng looked at her grandpa, who was as happy as a child who had won a battle. She was also very happy. “I want to eat pork trotters, braised pork, sweet and sour spare ribs, roasted duck, roasted chicken, and big pork hocks!”

Huo Xiao nodded. “Okay, let’s eat big pork hocks!

Huo Ci gave her a sideways look. She was still eating? She had already become a pig. He was quite disdainful, but he reminded her kindly, “You’re starting work on the tenth day of the Lunar New Year. Look at yourself. When you appear on screen, won’t you be a horizontal ball?”

Ling Sheng turned around and glared at him angrily before complaining, “Grandpa, look at my father. He said I’m fat!”

Huo Xiao hit him with his walking stick. “Who are you talking about? Who are you talking about? How is my dear granddaughter fat? How is she a ball? She’s only adorable when she’s fat.”

Ling Sheng’s face withered abruptly. That really hurt my heart, Grandpa. She bit her lips and seeked confirmation, “Grandpa, did I really gain that much weight?”

Huo Xiao smiled kindly. “No, you’re adorable when you’re plump. Grandpa likes your fleshy appearance. You look soft.”

Ling Sheng’s heart was stabbed again, and she had no choice but to face the cruel reality. She pinched her fleshy face, feeling speechless and choked up. She had gained weight. She had really gained weight!

All the dishes at night were Ling Sheng’s favorites. However, she did not touch a single piece of meat. She only ate vegetables and even had one less bowl of rice.

As a professional actress, she definitely had to achieve her best state before acting. Given her physique, if she did not eat for three days, she could lose five pounds. She would appear on camera in two days.p

Jun Shiyan did not know what was wrong with the young lady. Somewhat worried, he asked softly, “You don’t have an appetite?”

She did not touch her usual favorite meat at all. She had become a vegetarian rabbit. She did not even eat the meat that he picked for her and only ate two peeled prawns. He was afraid that her mood had been affected by what had happened in the afternoon.

Ling Sheng nodded, looking very disappointed.

“If she eats more, she’ll become a ball. Do you think you’re feeding a pig?!” Huo Ci saw that the brat still had the cheek to nod and exposed her mercilessly.

Where had her face come from? Look at her figure. Did she have any self-awareness as an actress? She could not control her mouth. The key was that she was also lazy and did not move her legs. She was crying like she was at a funeral just because h

Huo Xuanzhou let out a laugh and looked at Ling Sheng. He did not usually pay attention to her, but when he took a closer look, he realized that she had indeed become a lot rounder. He held back his laughter and said, “Listen to me, eat. You look prettier when you’re round.”

Ling Sheng glared at him in grief and indignation. She was already sad that she could not eat the delicious food in front of her. Could they still be a good family? Were they all here to stab at her heart? “You’re the round one!”

“You’re not fat. Just eat a little less. I’ll take a walk with you later,” Jun Shiyan let out a low laugh, his eyes full of affection as he picked up a piece of lean meat for her.

He finally knew why the young lady had been sighing unhappily the whole afternoon. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. So it was not because of the Nangong Family’s Old Master, but because she had to lose weight and could no longer eat delicious food.

He did not know if Uncle Nangong would feel depressed if he knew that he could not beat a chicken drumstick and a big pork hock in the young lady’s heart.

Although the Nangong Family had not lived in China for decades, the Nangong Family’s old residence in China had always been here. There were even servants who cleaned it regularly.

When Nangong Lengyu returned, Nangong Lengyu and Nangong Lun had just sat at the dining table and were preparing to eat.

“You’re back.” Nangong Lun did not even put his chopsticks down, as though nothing had happened. He looked up at her and said gently, “Tidy up and come out to eat. The dishes will get cold soon.”

Nangong Lengyu forced herself to remain calm. When she saw him, her eyes reddened. In a hoarse voice, she asked, “Father, what exactly are you doing?”

She did not know how he could be in the mood to eat now that things had developed to this stage. He couldn’t not know why she was looking for him!

He had done it on purpose. He had come to China while she was on the way home and gone to the Huo Family to get Ling Sheng. Did he think that Little Star would be willing to come back with him happily after he had done something like that?

Now, she actually felt that she did not know him at all. The person in front of her was her father, the person who had loved her the most since she was young.

In front of outsiders, he was the dignified, lofty, and highly respected head of the Nangong Family. No one dared to be rude to him.

However, at home, he was just her father. He had never used the strictness toward Little Mo on her before. At one time, she had even felt that Xiao Mo might be a child he had picked up from somewhere.

Their mother had passed away early, and he had never thought of remarrying for the sake of her and Little Mo. No one knew that the master of the Nangong Family, who was dignified outside the house, could be her big horse at home and climb around in circles in the garden, spoiling her to the heavens. If she said she wanted the stars in the sky, he would even pluck them for her.

However, this kind of father had personally made the decision to send her daughter away and separate her flesh and blood. How could he bring himself to do this? How could he bear to do this to her?!

“Since you love her so much, I went to the Huo Family to get her back.” Nangong Lun slowly raised his head. When he saw her red eyes, his heart ached. “However, Father is useless. The Huo Family is unwilling to let her go, and she’s also unwilling to come back with me. Don’t worry, Father will get her back for you sooner or later.”
