Once, Huo Ci came back from a gathering with classmates, dead drunk, and let a young maid into his room.
The next day, the young maid ran out disheveled, claiming that Huo Ci had molested her.
Huo Ci naturally wouldn't admit it, and Old Master Huo had a doctor examine the maid's body; indeed, she had been violated, and there was incriminating evidence left by Huo Ci. Old Master Huo flew into a rage and beat him severely on the spot.
Since that incident, Huo Ci had started to fall into decadence.
Fighting, skipping classes, smoking, and drinking became common occurrences.
No matter what Old Master Huo said, he wouldn't listen. The relationship between grandfather and grandson grew increasingly stiff.
Lately, Huo Ci had even moved out of the Huo Family home.
Madam Huo patted Nangong Xuan's hand, "Xiao Xuan, never associate with that kind of unrestrainedly evil person. Even if you see him at school, walk the other way!"
