"..."
The living room instantly fell silent, not a sound to be heard.
Huo Shuyun's footsteps halted in place, her expression frozen.
The year Huo Yanxing turned 24, after graduating from Eternity Academy, he seldom returned home and his whereabouts were quite mysterious.
Huo Shuyun had thought that Huo Yanxing's absence from home would displease the elders and Huo Tianwen, subsequently stripping him of his heir status.
Unexpectedly, in the past two years of family assessments, Huo Yanxing had firmly maintained the top position, unshakable.
Huo Shuyun felt both jealousy and hatred.
It wasn't that she hadn't tried to influence Madam Huo against him, whispering in her ears on several occasions to poison Madam Huo's mind.
But Madam Huo had secured her position today through astuteness, hadn't she?
After being caught once, Huo Shuyun managed to evade further trouble by playing the victim and shedding tears, thereafter she dared not scheme again.
