What to Do If I Become the Villain's Daughter

Chapter 19
After leaving the dental department, Huo Ning felt reborn and quickly escaped the place she dreaded.

She even used her Genius Kid smartwatch to send a message to Huo Xiaozheng, hoping to be discharged from the hospital that evening.

Huo Ning was just caught up in the moment, but unexpectedly, around six o'clock, Huo Xiaozheng actually arranged for her discharge and took her straight home.

Even as they got into the car, Huo Ning was somewhat dazed.

"Are we being discharged already?"

Huo Xiaozheng secured her seatbelt and hummed softly in affirmation.

"It's no big deal, if you don't want to stay in the hospital, we'll go home."

Huo Ning was overjoyed; going home was certainly the best option. She hadn't been in the novel's world long, yet she found herself running to the hospital every other day, as if returning to a nest, which was truly annoying.

"Tonight is my uncle's birthday, we're going back to the Huo Family estate for dinner, is that okay?" Huo Xiaozheng asked for Huo Ning's opinion.

Huo Ning paused for a second.

"Can I go?"

Although the original novel successfully portrayed Huo Xiaozheng as a villain, it didn't describe the Huo Family in much detail.

Based on Huo Ning's understanding of wealthy families, being an 'illegitimate daughter' with a mother who couldn't be publicly acknowledged, the older generation of the Huo Family probably wouldn't like her, right?

"If you don't want to go, then we won't," Huo Xiaozheng said casually.

"Ah, you wouldn't go either?" Huo Ning was somewhat surprised.

"If you don't go, then we'll just go home."

Again, that phrase.

Huo Ning felt something was odd, but couldn't quite put her finger on it at the moment.

"Are you worried they won't like you?" Huo Xiaozheng, being a father, observed her for a moment and quickly grasped what was on Huo Ning's mind.

Huo Ning nodded.

Huo Xiaozheng smiled, pulled out his phone, scrolled to the family group chat, and showed her a video Huo Yueze had posted of her slipping in the snow, handing the phone to her.

"This is your uncle, your aunt, and those below are your aunts."

Huo Ning scrolled down.

In the chat, everyone was praising how cute she was and scolding Huo Yueze for not taking good care of his sister.

Some cute emojis made Huo Ning laugh.

"Your aunt is so beautiful," Huo Ning clicked on her aunt's profile picture, a stunning beauty with big wavy hair and fiery red lips, her eyes and brows somewhat resembling Huo Xiaozheng's, her gaze cool and clear.

Huo Xiaozheng hesitated: "She's an actress."

Huo Ning gasped in surprise.

"She would definitely like you if she met you."

"Why?"

Huo Xiaozheng, recalling Huo Jing's peculiar preferences, answered evasively.

"Because you're cute and pretty."

The straightforward compliment made Huo Ning blush.

She shyly hid in her thick scarf, and after a while, she peeked out with big eyes: "Should I bring a gift for my uncle?"
