At this moment, Huangfu Ruixiang hurriedly went downstairs, no longer as graceful as he used to be. Perhaps because he had walked too quickly, his hair was messed up by the wind, and his clothes did not seem to be as neat as before. There were even some wrinkles in some places.
“Ruixiang, what’s wrong with you?” When Zhongyu Liuying saw Huangfu
Ruixiangs appearance, she couldn’t help but frown. “You’re the young master of the Huangfu family, and you represent the family’s reputation.”
“Mom, let’s not talk about this for now. If you want to lecture me, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future,” said Huangfu Ruixiang, somewhat out of breath. “The most important thing now is that our Huangfu family is going to have a new family head. Do you guys know about this?”
At this time, he was still resting in his room. Last night, he went out with hisfriends and didn’t come back until midnight.
He had originally planned to sleep a little later today, but early in the morning, he received a call from his friends who told him the news. He did not bother to wash up and ran downstairs directly to tell his parents.
With a crisp sound, the coffee cup in Zhongyu Yiran’s hand fell to the ground.
At this moment, Zhongyu Liuying couldn’t care less about the fragments of the coffee cup on the ground. She stood up and came to Huangfu Ruixiang. “What do you mean we are going to have a new family head? Who did you hear this from? You have to know that some things can’t be casually joked about.”
“Mom, I’m not joking!” Huangfu Ruixiang grabbed his hair hard. “This matter has already spread. All the big families have already received invitations. Tell me, at this point, could it still be fake?”
He didn’t want this to be true, okay?
His father being the head of the family and his elder brother being the head of the family were completely different to him.
Although the power of the family was no longer in his father’s hands, as long as his father was still the patriarch of the Huangfu family, others would value him more, It would be a different matter if the head of the family was changed to his elder brother. Especially since his relationship with his brother was not very close. It could even be said that he was unfamiliar with him.
After hearing Huangfu Ruixiangs words, Zhongyu Liuying immediately realized that this wasn’t a joke. She quickly turned her head and looked at
Huangfu Jingzhang. At this moment, she also understood why Huangfu
Jingzhang had suddenly reacted that way. It seemed the reason was here.
“Bastard.” Huangfu Jingzhang’s face was ashen. He clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth tightly. It could be seen how bad his mood was at this moment.
Just now, he had received a call from the elders of the family to ask about this matter.
When he heard this, his first reaction was disbelief. However, the person on the other end of the phone told him that the story was true and had already spread throughout the upper class of the capital. They called to ask what was going on.
“Is this true?” Seeing Huangfu Jingzhangs reaction, Zhongyu Liuyings eyes widened in disbelief. “How could Ruiling do such a thing?”
“It’s that unfilial son. He wants to rebel!” Huangfu Jingzhang gritted his teeth in hatred. At this moment, his face was filled with gloom. “He informed all the families in the upper-class society of the capital, but he did not tell me, the person involved. Now that he has grown up, he actually wants to chase me down from the position of family head. He must be dreaming.”
“Could there be some misunderstanding?” Zhongyu Liuying quickly tried to persuade him, “Things haven’t been clarified yet. Maybe this wasn’t done by Ruiling at all?”
“Other than him, who else could it be?” Huangfu Jingzhangs eyes were filled with anger. “He actually dared to do such a thing. In his eyes, am I still his father?”
“Calm down first.” Zhongyu Liuying sat down beside Huangfu Jingzhang and patted his back to calm him down. “We still don’t know what’s going on, so we shouldn’t rush to make a conclusion about Ruiling. Therefore, I think it’s better to investigate this matter clearly first.”
“Don’t make excuses for that unfilial son anymore,” said Huangfu Jingzhang, his expression remaining gloomy. “All along, I only thought that his personality was a little strange. I didn’t expect that he would actually do such a thing now. In fact, he didn’t even mention such a big matter, let alone discuss it with me. I think that in his heart, there is simply no place for me as his father.’
“Jingzhang, don’t be so angry,” Zhongyu Liuying hurriedly continued. “You’d better give Ruiling a call first and see what’s going on! Maybe there’s a mistake!
“Mistake?” Huangfu Jingzhangs face was full of sa_rcasm. “Now, all the big families have already received the invitations. This banquet will be held on the 15th day of the first lunar month. The purpose of the banquet is to announce the new patriarch of the Huangfu family. Do you think there’s a mistake?”
“No matter what, you should ask Ruiling,” Zhongyu Liuying continued. “If there was a mistake, you should have explained it earlier! If he really did it, you should ask him what the reason is.”
Even though he couldn’t bring himself to make this call, after much consideration, he still chose to make the call. Because if this matter was true, it might be too late for him to withdraw those invitations when he thought of a solution.
The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up.
“Huangfu Ruiling, do you know what you are doing?” As soon as the call was answered on the other end, Huangfu Jingzhang couldn’t hold back his angry outburst. “l am your father, how could you do something like this? Have you ever thought about how your actions make me feel as your father? What do you take me for? I’m clearly one of the parties involved, but I can only find out about this from others. Huangfu Ruiling, what do you mean?”
“Nothing,” answered Huangfu Ruiling, his tone unchanged, still cold and calm. “Didn’t you say it before? Status isn’t important. Since that’s the case, then I’m returning the same sentiment to you now..”
