Rebirth of a Spoiled Darling: Bloodstained Lord Huo's Billion-Dollar Dowry Proposal

Realizing he had lost his composure, Meng Shu hurriedly turned his face away.

But Huo Qilin still saw it.

Cried?

Is this what she was expecting?

Huo Qilin looked up at Meng Shu.

Her hair was as black as ink, her skin as white as jade, her eyebrows as dark as ink, and her appearance was absolutely stunning, the epitome of beauty.

A pair of eyes that embody the spirit of heaven and earth, clear yet unfathomable.

At this moment, her eyes were filled with tears, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't, making her all the more endearing.

A cold glint of amusement flashed in his eyes, then he looked at Old Master Huo and said, "Grandpa."

Old Master Huo waved his hand, "Please sit down."

Huo Qilin nodded and walked directly to Meng Shu's side to sit down.

Seeing this, the smile in Old Master Huo's eyes deepened.

Meng Shu blushed and her breathing became erratic.

She could only lower her eyes and frantically try to tidy herself up.

Huo Zhi, standing to the side, was full of resentment, her sharp nails digging fiercely into her flesh.

My older brother is still so indifferent to me.

But so what?

She will absolutely not give up.

"Big brother, Zhi'er misses you so much. Do you miss me too?"

Huo Zhi acted coquettishly towards Huo Qilin, like an innocent little girl.

Secretly, her eyes were filled with love and anticipation.

She wanted Meng Shu to know that her relationship with her older brother was special.

So what if my brother married her? She is the most important woman in my brother's heart.

Meng Shu smiled faintly, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes.

"I don't want to!" Huo Qilin's voice was extremely cold.

In front of so many people, the older brother completely disregarded her feelings?

My older brother wasn't like this before.

Of course, this was just Huo Zhi's wishful thinking.

From childhood to adulthood, Huo Qilin had never even given her a second glance.

Huo Zhi's eyes reddened, and her face turned pale.

It's all Meng Shu's fault!

I won't let Meng Shu get away with this!

With this in mind, Huo Zhi devised a plan.

"Sister-in-law, Grandpa has prepared a priceless dowry for you. You've come all this way to visit, so you must have prepared a gift for him, right?"

Meng Shu smiled, revealing a deep tranquility. "Grandpa Huo, I did prepare a gift, but..."

Huo Zhi stood up and took Meng Shu's arm, "Sister-in-law, don't hide it anymore, I'll go upstairs with you to get it."

Huo Qilin remained silent.

He even had a look of anticipation on his face.

I'm really looking forward to seeing what gift my future wife will give my grandfather.

A few minutes later, Meng Shu respectfully handed over the scroll in his hand, "Grandpa, I hope you will like it."

When Old Master Huo opened it in front of everyone, his eyes lit up immediately after glimpsing just a corner.

"Landscape Scroll" is something he has studied for half his life.

As the painting slowly unfolded, Old Master Huo was beaming with joy.

"Little Book Girl, how did you get this painting?"

Meng Shu smiled slightly, like a gentle evening breeze, soothing and serene, as if everything was understood without words.

"I wouldn't dare lie to Grandpa, I just bought it on a whim on the antique street."

Huo Zhi shook her head and smiled, then sighed repeatedly, "It must be a fake, but it doesn't matter. Grandpa will be very happy with Miss Meng's thoughtfulness."

Old Master Huo snorted, his eyes full of joy.

"You have no sense of propriety. Who said this is a fake? This is an original."

Huo Zhi's smile froze on her face, her complexion alternating between red and white.

Grandpa Huo looked at Meng Shu with approval, "Shu girl, you're very thoughtful."

Meng Shu smiled and shook his head, "Grandpa, I'm not sure if it's an authentic work. I just felt that this painting suits you very well, so I bought it."

"You're such a bright girl at such a young age, it's remarkable, truly remarkable."

"Thank you for your praise, Grandpa Huo." Meng Shu said calmly, neither humble nor arrogant.

Huo Qilin gave him a meaningful look.

The young wife appeared innocent and naive, even naive, but in reality, everything was under her control.

He couldn't help but laugh.

What a cunning little girl.

It seems my future days are going to be quite interesting.

Just then, Zhao Jingming returned.

Her face was pale and she was panting, clearly having rushed back in a hurry.

Old Master Huo glanced at him coldly and said in an unpleasant tone, "Where is Huo Shengren? Didn't he come back with you?"

A flicker of panic crossed Zhao Jingming's eyes.

He subconsciously exchanged a glance with Huo Zhi, then quickly looked away.

Huo Zhi concealed her complicated expression and then said, "Grandpa, Huo Sheng has some things to take care of. He will definitely come back to see you as soon as he's done."

Zhao Jingming smiled and chimed in, "That's right, Dad."

Old Master Huo snorted coldly, "He's probably caused trouble again."

That's absolutely right.

As soon as Huo Sheng returned, he slashed and injured the man.

Huo Changgeng is currently dealing with this matter.

Zhao Jingming rushed back because he was afraid that Old Master Huo would suspect something.

Meng Shu smiled.

Huo Sheng is a born bad seed, born with criminal genes, and suffers from supermale syndrome.

Thinking about the couple's future fate, a hint of amusement flashed in Meng Shu's eyes.

At this moment, Old Master Huo suddenly waved his hand at Zhao Jingming, "You can leave now. There's no need for you to stay here. Go and deal with Huo Sheng's matter."

Zhao Jingming breathed a sigh of relief, but the next second she immediately realized what had happened and her face turned pale.

Could it be that the old man already knows?

At this moment, Old Master Huo's strong voice rang out.

"Once you've dealt with him properly, send him away as soon as possible to avoid tarnishing the Huo family's reputation!"

Zhao Jingming is now certain that the old man knows everything.

She glanced at Huo Zhi before saying softly, "Dad, I'll be going now. Xiao Zhi, you stay and spend more time with Grandpa."

Before leaving, she glanced at Meng Shu secretly.

Meng Shu met her gaze and smiled faintly.

"Alright, it's almost time. Let's eat."

Meng Shu glanced at Huo Qilin subconsciously, then followed Old Master Huo toward the restaurant.

Although she really wanted to cling to Huo Qilin, it wasn't the right time yet.

living room.

In an instant, only Huo Qilin and Huo Zhi remained.

"Brother, Zhi'er has something to tell you."

Unexpectedly, Huo Qilin got up and left without giving her a chance.

Huo Zhi followed behind, clutching her arm tightly, tears welling in her eyes.

She finally got to return to the Huo family, but her eldest brother was so cold towards her.

Now that Huo Sheng has caused trouble, she might also be implicated and sent abroad again.

The thought of seeing her older brother again made her increasingly distressed.

She has liked Huo Qilin for five years.

Even if they are siblings.

She couldn't give up, and she didn't want to give up.

Even though he already has a wife, she would not hesitate to stay by his side, even without a formal title or status.

Inside the restaurant.

Meng Shu ate her food quietly, her every move perfectly proper, leaving no room for criticism.

He only occasionally responded to Old Master Huo with a few words, always maintaining a proper demeanor and showing utmost respect.

Huo Qilin scrutinized Meng Shu, his eyes filled with unfathomable depth.

Seeing that her grandfather and elder brother's attention was drawn to Meng Shu, Huo Zhi tightened her grip on her chopsticks, her eyes filled with resentment and jealousy.

How could Meng Shu, this woman, accept it so calmly?

This is so strange.

After all, the whole world knows about the eldest brother's situation.

Doesn't she feel uncomfortable?

Needless to say, they must have had ulterior motives.

I must expose her true colors in front of my grandfather and older brother.

She's so good at pleasing her grandfather, I'm determined not to let her have her way.

Thinking of this, Huo Zhi ladled out a bowl of porridge, a flattering smile on her face, "Grandpa, this is your favorite preserved egg and lean pork porridge, please have some more."

Grandpa Huo said calmly, "You're thoughtful; you even remember what I like to eat."

Huo Qilin frowned, about to speak.

Unexpectedly, Meng Shu, who was eating quietly, suddenly spoke up, "Grandpa Huo, your blood pressure is a bit high, so it's not suitable for you to drink porridge that's too salty."
