Chapter 66

Around eight o'clock in the evening, the Huo family's old residence was brightly lit.

Huo Jihan had just arrived and was immediately surrounded by a group of Huo family members.

These people feared Huo Jihan but also sought to curry favor with him.

Everyone knew that Huo Jihan now held the reins of power within the entire Huo family, and only he could decide the fate of every Huo family member.

The Huo family was involved in numerous industries, including finance, high-tech, entertainment, and more, making their influence complex and intertwined.

Therefore, they would hold regular family gatherings where resources could be integrated and exchanged.

In these gatherings, Huo Jihan had absolute authority, so everyone spoke to him cautiously and measured their words carefully.

Lin Yi did not recognize these Huo family members, but with a casual glance, he noticed that those surrounding Huo Jihan included figures from the business world, education sector, and entertainment industry-leading figures who commanded respect in their respective fields.

Indeed, the Huo family's network of resources was impressive.

At this moment, an elderly man with graying hair and a very amiable face walked towards the sofa area.

Lin Yi looked at him and felt a sense of familiarity; he must have seen him somewhere before.

Sure enough, Huo Shi called out, "Uncle Huo."

Upon hearing Huo Shi's greeting, Lin Yi remembered.

The Uncle Huo of the Huo family was a prominent figure in the education sector and a professor at a top university.

At this point, Uncle Huo approached them with a smile, first bending down to look at Huo Mianmian: "Mianmian, you've grown so much, right? You're three years old now?"

Huo Mianmian nodded obediently, still holding the rabbit plush toy he had been playing with.

Uncle Huo smiled and patted his little head: "It's time for school soon. You need to study hard. I'll be checking on your progress regularly."

Huo Mianmian's round eyes widened instantly.

Though he didn't fully understand what was being said, he sensed a heavy burden falling upon him, QAQ!

Lin Yi watched Huo Mianmian with amusement from the side.

Poor kid, not even started school yet, but already under the watchful eye of an elder from the education sector.

After teasing Huo Mianmian for a while, Uncle Huo naturally turned to Huo Shi and said, "You too, young people should always strive to learn."

Huo Shi seemed to respect this uncle and nodded: "Yes."

Uncle Huo continued, "Young people should dare to take risks. Even if you run fast and stumble occasionally, it's nothing. Everyone falls when they're young. Just get up, dust yourself off, and keep moving forward..."

Initially, Huo Shi didn't realize why Uncle Huo was saying this, but gradually, he understood and became serious.

Uncle Huo then added, "Your parents' situation is not your fault. Don't keep it on your mind. Your third uncle speaks harshly, just ignore him."

This was the core of Uncle Huo's message.

Huo Shi listened silently, his expression changing, perhaps thinking about his parents again.
