Huo Cen’s appearance caught everyone in the room off guard.

An Linghe and his wife, who were originally sitting on the sofa, stood up immediately.

Cao Qin reached out and pulled her daughter back to her side to prevent her from making any more reckless decisions.

If Song Yunshu was here alone, it would be fine, but Huo Cen was there too. The situation would be different

“Oh, Huo Cen is here. Yunshu really didn’t tell us in advance. I thought she was coming back alone and you didn’t.” Cao Qin smiled and took the initiative to greet him.

Unexpectedly, the man strode straight to Song Yunshu’s side and placed his large palm on her back silently.

It was as if he was giving her strength and support.

Song Yunshu glanced at Huo Cen out of the corner of her eyes.

There was a hint of redness and glistening wetness in the corner of her eyes. She covered her cheek with one hand, and there was an indescribable stubbornness in her expression.

The man’s cold gaze swept across everyone present and finally stopped on Cao Qin and her daughter.

With an unhappy expression, Huo Cen said, “Mrs. An, do you think that if I didn’t come, you could bully Songsong at will?”

“Or is this that the An family’s education is like this, that they raise daughters to be like a shrew?”

Huo Cen’s voice was neither loud nor soft, but it carried a lot of weight.

An Jiaqing had never expected Huo Cen to come.

Upon hearing his words, she immediately became anxious and flustered as she pushed her mother’s hand away and took a step forward, waving her hands forcefully.

“No, it’s not like that, Big Brother Huo. It’s Song Yunshu. She deliberately provoked me and said things about me. I was impulsive and didn’t mean it.”

An Jiaqing portrayed herself as a pitiful person who had suffered a great grievance.

Her eyes were tinged with glistening wetness as she spoke, and tears had already filled her eyes as if they were just waiting to spill out.

It was indescribably miserable.

However, Huo Cen was a cold-hearted person.

Despite the sight of such a beautiful woman in tears, he remained expressionless and stared at them with a cold gaze.

Seeing this, Cao Qin felt embarrassed. She reached out and pulled her daughter back to her side. Ignoring her husband’s previous instructions, she straightened her back and met the man’s gaze.

“Huo Cen, no matter what, you’re already married to Yunshu. Logically speaking, you should call us uncle and aunt. You didn’t greet the elders when you entered the house, and you even accused our Qingqing of not having a good upbringing. Is this your idea of manners?”

As soon as Cao Qin finished speaking, she met with a cold glare from An Linghe.

Huo Cen looked at his wife through his glasses, and for a moment, even the glasses couldn’t block the sharpness in his eyes.

When Huo Cen was at home, no one could control him except Old Master Huo, not even his biological father.

Not to mention these relatives who had nothing to do with him.

Even if he married Song Yunshu, it didn’t mean that these so-called ‘relatives’ could climb on top of his head unscrupulously and act arrogantly.

“Mrs. An, are you criticizing my grandfather’s upbringing?”

Huo Cen raised his hand and placed it on Song Yunshu’s shoulder, his expression casual.

But at the same time, the biting cold aura emanating from his body still intimidated Cao Qin into speechlessness.

“No, Big Brother Huo, that’s not what my mother meant. She’s just anxious to see me being bullied..”

“Whether it is or not, you know it in your hearts.”

Huo Cen’s words made An Jiaqing swallow her words.

At the same time, the man’s warning gaze landed on An Linghe, who had yet to say a word.

“No matter what happened in the past, Song Yunshu is now my wife and the young mistress of the Huo family. Her face naturally represents mine and the Huo family’s.”

An Linghe’s hands, which were on the armrest of the sofa, clenched subconsciously.

He had lived for most of his life, but now he was being threatened by a junior. Anyone would be angry in his place.

However, even so, he could only grit his teeth and swallow his pride. As the person opposite him is Huo Cen and the entire Huo family.

“Qingqing, apologize to Yunshu.”

“Daddy!”

“Apologize!”
