“Doesn’t this mean that the Hill Family thinks highly of our family?” After hearing the butler’s description, the worry in Mrs. Huo’s heart dissipated a lot and her footsteps became even brisk. “Did that butler really have a pleasant chat with Huo Feng? What did they talk about?”
The butler had been following behind Mrs. Huo. Before he could describe the scene of the butler talking to Huo Feng in detail, Mrs. Huo had quickly entered the villa.
She immediately saw the invitation letter placed neatly on the table. She picked it up and looked at it carefully.
Although the words on the invitation letter were succinct and somewhat formulaic, in Mrs. Huo’s eyes, this represented the arrogance and low-profile attitude of the Hill Family. She did not feel that she had been neglected at all. Instead, she felt extremely honored by this simple invitation letter.
With this, the Huo Family could squeeze into a banquet held by the world’s top wealthy families. They might even get connected to foreign corporations and wealthy families. With this opportunity, the Huo Family would be able to soar!
Huo Feng stood at the staircase and looked at his mother excitedly placing the cold and patronizing invitation letter in front of her chest, looking like she cherished it a lot.
The butler, who had just bowed humbly in front of the Hill Family’s butler, was now looking like he shared the honor with Mrs. Huo.
Huo Feng stood on the stairs and looked down at this comedy-like scene. He couldn’t even feel sarcastic anymore. After all, no matter how interesting the scene was, he had watched it for so many years and felt sick of it.
Fortunately, this kind of scene would disappear very quickly. He no longer had to watch those pretentious and hypocritical scenes.
The sad thing was that before that, he had to act in a few scenes with them. At the thought of this, Huo Feng shook his head helplessly.
He deliberately increased the sound of his footsteps to remind Mrs. Huo of his arrival.
Sure enough, Mrs. Huo turned around and saw Huo Feng coming down the stairs. She said happily, “Little Feng, the butler said that you had a pleasant chat with the butler from the Hill Family. Come over and tell Mom what did you guys talk about?”
The corners of Huo Feng’s lips twitched, and a smile that resembled Mrs. Huo appeared on his face. He quickly walked up to her and said in a pleasant voice, “Mom, the butler from the Hill Family was very kind. He personally sent the invitation over. As you and Dad were not at home, I received him as the only owner of the house. He even asked some questions about my studies…”
Huo Feng rambled on, saying things like “How is school?”, “What is your ranking in your finals?”, “Did you secretly get a girlfriend behind your parents’ backs?”…These were the kind of words that elders would often ask juniors.
This only meant that the butler of the Hill Family was a friendly person. It didn’t mean that he looked at Huo Feng differently.
As Mrs. Huo listened, the smile on her face became a little stiff. In the end, she forced a smile and said, “At least it shows that they’re happy to be on good terms with the Huo Family. This is not bad.”
Seeing Mrs. Huo’s unhappy expression, Huo Feng slowly said, “Yeah… After the butler asked about these unimportant matters, he asked about my relationship with Sister Huo Tian.”
To Mrs. Huo, this was like seeing a silver lining. Her eyes lit up instantly, and she sat up straight and stared at Huo Feng, asking expectantly, “Then how did you answer?”
Huo Feng smiled and his heart was filled with mockery. He replied obediently, “I just tell the truth.. In this family, the person who has the best relationship with Sister Huo Tian is me.”
