Tycoon Stepdad's Popularity (Part-1)

95 (ii)

Huo Mianmian nodded. "Yes, I slept well."

Lin Yi asked again, "How was the bedtime story your dad told you?"

Hearing this, Huo Mianmian slightly frowned. "Not good."

Lin Yi laughed. "Why not?"

Huo Mianmian frowned, looking a bit troubled. "Because Dad's story wasn't fun."

It was the same wonderful fairy tale, but when told by Lin Yi and Huo Jihan, the effects were worlds apart.

After hearing Huo Mianmian's words, Lin Yi couldn't help laughing even harder.

Rarely did Huo Jihan get criticized, even if it was by his own son.

Lin Yi promised Huo Mianmian that he would tell him a story tonight before preparing to go downstairs.

Before leaving, he asked Huo Mianmian, "Mianmian, do you want to go downstairs with me or continue playing with the seal?"

This was an easy choice for Huo Mianmian: "Go downstairs with you."

Although the seal plush toy was fun, compared to his dad, it could be set aside.

Lin Yi smiled. "Alright, go wash your face and brush your teeth, and then we'll go downstairs for breakfast together."

"Okay."

Ten minutes later, Lin Yi led Huo Mianmian downstairs.

Upon reaching the living room, they found two unexpected visitors, a man and a woman.

Lin Yi paused briefly, glancing at them casually.

The man hadn't even made it past the villa's entrance, being stopped by several bodyguards.

The woman stood in the living room, looking nervously at Huo Jihan on the sofa.

Lin Yi raised an eyebrow.

What was going on?

He looked at the trembling woman standing before Huo Jihan.

From her appearance and demeanor, she clearly seemed to be a young lady who had been pampered since childhood.

She had a head of wavy chestnut hair, adorned with an exquisite and delicate hair clip. She wore a long white dress and a khaki trench coat, carrying a small handbag.

Every piece of clothing she wore was a high-end designer brand.

It was clear that she came from an extraordinary background.

She was also very beautiful, with watery eyes that, when looking at someone with a pleading expression, evoked a sense of sympathy.

Lin Yi's gaze shifted back and forth between the girl and Huo Jihan several times, almost certain who she was.

She must be the third miss of the Huo family, Huo Mengyan.

However, in front of her elder brother, she appeared visibly frightened, slightly lowering her head, not daring to breathe deeply, and unconsciously gripping the strap of her handbag.

At this moment, Huo Jihan sat on the sofa, his expression cold, reading a document.

Clearly, he was giving her the cold shoulder.

Huo Mengyan, feeling nervous and uneasy, tentatively called out, "Big Brother?"

Huo Jihan did not look up from the document, only speaking coldly, "If you still insist on following that man, then get out of this house."

Huo Mengyan's beautiful eyes instantly filled with tears. "Big Brother, why do you have to force me like this?"

Huo Jihan stopped talking to her, as if unwilling to waste any more time.
