If he went to the hospital for an investigation, he could find out if she was telling the truth.
Huo Zhenggang's face was shrouded in gloom. The atmosphere around him became stagnant.
As a big shot who had spent his whole life immersed in the business world, his aura and presence were not to be underestimated.
"Huo Jingjing, will you be able to save face? You're not married and now you've already aborted a child. Would you die without a man?" Huo Zhenggang slammed the table, and the cups on the table shook a few times. Huo Jingjing was so shocked that tears fell from her eyes as she sobbed.
At this point, Huo Jingjing was almost out of breath from crying. She could only hide beside Gu Yanwei and Zhou Yunxi.
"Uncle Huo, it's probably a misunderstanding." Gu Yanwei tried to explain but soon realized that her explanation couldn't convince anyone.
Huo Zhenggang had a good impression of Gu Yanwei. When she heard Gu Yanwei speak up for Huo Jingjing, he listened to her carefully.
"She went to the hospital. What misunderstanding is there?" Mrs. Huo's attitude was dreadful. She was disgusted by Huo Jingjing.
Many years ago, Huo Jingjing's mother had seduced Huo Zhenggang's heart with her beautiful face.
Now, the anger that Mrs. Huo had subdued for so many years had finally exploded.
"Why are you crying? You're a jinx. The Huo family is in a mess because of people like you!"
Zhou Yunxi saw that Huo Jingjing was being scolded miserably and was afraid that her own daughter would be implicated. She slyly tugged at the corner of Huo Jingjing's shirt to stop her from speaking.
Gu Yanwei looked at Huo Jingjing apologetically, indicating that there was nothing she could do.
Huo Jingjing had been pampered for so many years. This was the first time her father had flown into a rage at her. She could not help but feel wronged. "Yes, I have a boyfriend. What do you think? Just because of a single sentence from Gu Ruochu, you don't want me as your daughter anymore? Gu Ruochu, do you think that you're innocent? Sister Yanwei and I have witnessed the ambiguous relationship between you and that man. Who knows if you've already gone behind my brother's back..."
"Huo Jingjing, shut up!"
Huo Nanchen's simple words scared Huo Jingjing so much that her face turned pale and she did not dare to say another word.
Huo Jingjing wanted to humiliate Gu Ruochu. She desperately yearned to smear Gu Ruochu in front of Huo Zhenggang and Old Madam Huo.
Huo Nanchen's eyes revealed a sense of danger as he glanced at her. "What innocence does a married woman have?"
They were all stunned. Madam Huo was the first to understand the meaning behind his words and coughed lightly in embarrassment.
Huo Nanchen looked at Gu Ruochu from the side and leaned in close. It was obvious that he was speaking up for her.
Gu Ruochu only realized that the distance between them had closed when his breath reached her ear.
Her heart skipped a beat and she wanted to leave quietly. However, he leaned closer and whispered into her ear. "Madam, don't you agree?"
Although his voice was low, it was loud enough for the people around them to hear. Huo Nanchen's words were worth more than a dozen of their words.
Gu Yanwei never thought that she would have to cuddle each other in front of everyone. His hand was naturally wrapped around Gu Ruochu's. Gu Yanwei's eyes were filled with jealousy and hatred.
If Zhou Yunxi had not held her back, she might have lost control of her emotions.
Gu Ruochu met his gaze and quietly moved away. However, could still hear the rhythm of her own heartbeat.
Huo Nanchen did not move his eyes. Just like had done before, he stared at her with a deep gaze.
It was as if he was sizing her up with interest.
His eyes were like a dark sea of stars that flashed with a luster that she couldn't make out clearly.
Huo Nanchen's gaze made Gu Ruochu feel uneasy. Her face flushed and her heart pounded, but she could not avoid it no matter how hard she tried.
"Jingjing, stop fooling around." Old Madam Huo had already made up her mind after watching this scene. Her voice was stern and assured.
