Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Huo Jinyun did not want the old master to know that Gu Jizhou had been married before, "Anan, you see, Jizhou isn’t handling the company well, he’s just too young. Since you’re always free, why not help him? You’ve always been steady and reliable, and Jizhou wouldn’t dare to disobey you." 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Huo Jinnan lowered his eyes and spoke blandly, "In terms of managing a company, I am afraid I am not any better than Jizhou."

He looked in Gu Jizhou’s direction.

"Uncle is being modest." Gu Jizhou also looked towards Huo Jinnan, perhaps this is what it means to fear someone! His mother felt this way, and so did he.

Huo Jinnan turned to Huo Jinyun, "Both brother-in-law and sister are good at managing, they could guide Jizhou more. I truly don’t have that kind of ability."

With that said, Huo Jinxue could no longer speak and glanced at Gu Jizhou.

Gu Jizhou thought of his people who had followed for so long without uncovering anything. Resentfully, he glanced at Huo Jinnan, "Uncle, I’ve been planning to enter the film industry and want to set up a new subsidiary. I’d like to ask Uncle to manage it."

Huo Jinnan held a cigarette between his fingers, looking at Gu Jizhou, "I don’t understand the film industry and wouldn’t be competent at it. You might try to find someone familiar with that circle, it should be better."

Hearing this, the old master turned to Huo Jinnan, "Anan, since Jizhou has asked, give it a try, you can’t always..."

He wanted to say that being a photographer had no future, but the words felt inappropriate on his lips, "A man should always have his own career."

Huo Jinnan looked at the old master, "Photography can’t be considered a career?"

The old master shook his head helplessly, "That’s not it."

Huo Jinnan looked down and snuffed out his cigarette, "Grandfather thinks it’s not proper?"

The old master looked at Huo Jinnan and sighed deeply, "Anan, come to the study with me."

Huo Jinnan stood up and followed the old master upstairs.

At the door of the study, the old master turned to Uncle Guan with a grave expression, "Keep watch outside, don’t let anyone in."

Uncle Guan responded and saw the old master and the younger master enter, closing the door behind them.

The old master glanced at Huo Jinnan, walked to the side, and sighed, "Anan, do you plan to keep going like this?"

"Is that bad?"

Huo Jinnan retorted and stood there, his long fingers took out a cigarette but did not light it.

The old master sat on the sofa, "I know you can’t get over that hurdle, what happened back then has nothing to do with Jizhou."

Huo Jinnan did not want to mention the past, remaining silent where he stood.

The old master looked up at him, "Do you still think so?"

Huo Jinnan did not respond.

The old master spoke earnestly, "Anan, I’ll say it again, your brother’s death had nothing to do with Jizhou."

Huo Jinnan reached for the lighter, "click" it ignited, he placed the cigarette to his thin lips, drawing near the flame, he looked in the direction of the old master, "Grandfather, let’s not talk about my brother."

The old master nodded, feeling a heavy heart, "Jizhou is a bit thoughtless, but not bad at heart. The Qin Family seems to target him, and their motives might not be so simple. A few days ago, your sister brought up something to me."

Huo Jinnan stood there, quietly waiting for the old master to continue.

The old master spoke slowly, "The Wen Family, you must have heard of them. Wen Hua was investigated for bribery a while back, then mysteriously cleared of charges. I believe that in Hongcheng City, apart from our Huo Family, only the Qin Family has that power."
