ATBLM [QT] Chapter 87.1

The Marshal of the Republic of China (17)

Advertisement

Huo Changlin was wearing a suit, with half-length hair and a slender figure. Looking at him as gentle and handsome, his words and deeds did not match his appearance at all. He directly held Jiang Rui under the armpits and hugged people up, rubbing her hair into a mess with one hand. Then, he pinched several more on her cheeks and said regretfully while pinching, “Hey, why is the flesh on your face gone?”

“Second Brother, let me go! Oh, it hurts–” Jiang Rui’s face was pinched by him to deform and her hair also became a bird’s nest. Her limbs fluttered and she wanted to push but could not push away his claws. She was so anxious that her face turned red and she hurriedly called for help: “Big Brother, Sixth Brother, save me!”

Xu Hansheng was just about to stand up, but someone was one step faster than him. Huo Changyao pulled Jiang Rui away from Huo Changlin’s arms, protected her behind him, and frowned slightly, “What does it look like when he is so big?”

Jiang Rui quickly took a picture of herself against the metal trim on the furniture. Her hair was messed up, the makeup on her face was smeared, and her clothes were wrinkled. She suddenly changed from a delicate and fashionable lady to a mad woman.

She stomped her feet with anger, “Second Brother is really annoying!” After speaking, she hurried upstairs to fix her makeup and change clothes.

Huo Changlin stood there and laughed loudly. He said to the two while laughing, “Big Brother, Sixth Brother, long time no see.”

Huo Changyao watched Jiang Rui disappear on the stairs, then retracted his gaze, and nodded, “Sit down and talk.”

The brothers were downstairs to reminisce, and after saying a few words, Huo Changyao accompanied Huo Changlin to see Wang Shi.

The history of the Old Marshal’s romantic affairs was a bad account. The aunts were carried to the house one after another, and the confidantes were raised outside one by one. Wang Shi was naturally unhappy in her heart, and she was also blind to Huo Changlin.

Over the years, the person she hated the most is no longer there and Huo Changyao has gained a firm footing again, so her mentality is calmer. When she sees Huo Changlin, she can also say a few things the elders say. No matter what the thoughts are in her mind, her face is always passable.

They left Wang Shi’s place and returned to the front building.

Jiang Rui had already fixed up her makeup and was waiting for them in the living room. When she saw Huo Changlin come in, she vigilantly leaned toward Huo Changyao’s side and also avoided him when sitting on the sofa.

Huo Changlin held his heart: “Does Xiao Qi dislike the Second Brother? Second Brother’s heart aches.”

“My face hurts.” Jiang Rui said angrily.

Huo Changlin laughed: “That’s because you were too skinny. When you are a child, it won’t hurt to pinch since it is fleshy.” He said with emotion, “I haven’t seen you in a few years, even Xiao Qi has grown up.”

“What are your plans to come back this time?” Huo Changyao asked him.

Huo Changlin did not look too serious, “I don’t have any plans. I met a few people before and I may want to do some textile business together.”

Huo Changyao said: “If you want my help, just say it.”

“Okay, with the words of Big Brother, what am I afraid of?” Huo Changlin said with a smile.

As he was talking, the servant came to ask a few people what they had for dinner. When the servant asked Jiang Rui, she called her Madam. Huo Changyao and Xu Hansheng were accustomed to it, but Huo Changlin was stunned, thinking that he had heard it wrong.

“…What did she call Xiao Qi just now?”

The other three looked at each other, knowing that they could not hide it, so they said it truthfully.

Huo Changlin frowned for a long time before saying: “Big Brother has experienced such a dangerous incident, I don’t even know. But this kind of Chongxi marriage and the target is still Xiao Qi and Big Brother, it is always a little hasty. If you meet someone you really like in the future, what should you do?”

Xu Hansheng and Huo Changyao did not speak. One was not the person involved, so it was difficult to speak, and the other did not know what he was thinking and was slightly lost in his mind.

Jiang Rui said: “This is just a stopgap measure. In the future, when Big Brother meets someone he likes, I will help to explain it clearly for him. And when I meet someone I like, let Big Brother help me explain it clearly. Before Mother was firm in her idea, if Big Brother and I didn’t do what she said, I was afraid that something would happen to her.”

“I’m afraid that it will not be as simple as you said in the future.” Huo Changlin shook his head. He listened to what Jiang Rui said and knew that most of this matter was achieved by Wang Shi by forcing her death. He could not help laughing at himself, “The filial piety of our ancestors can really crush people.”

What he said was not only directed to Wang Shi.

Huo Changlin went abroad to study abroad, firstly, because he really had the heart to study, and secondly, because of his mother, the Second Aunt of the Huo family, Liu Shi.

This matter is also a bit interesting.

In the beginning, Liu Shi was originally just a famous actor. Because of her wonderful voice and good figure, she caught the eyes of the Old Marshal and was carried by him into the mansion to become an aunt of the rich family. When she later gave birth to Huo Changlin, her status was even closer to that of his main wife, Wang Shi.

She had a self-motivated heart. She was jealous of Wang Shi and wanted her son Huo Changlin to compete with Huo Changyao. Unfortunately, Huo Changlin’s heart is not here, and he just wants to be a dashing and comfortable brother.

Although he was unruly in his words and seemed to be romantic, he never moved his heart. Until a few years ago, when he met a singer in a dance hall, he was out of control, to the point of not marrying.
