Huo Zun, because of the woman’s approach, slightly curled his lips.

...

All the way, Huo Zun carried Hua Nuan into the back seat of the luxury car. After getting out, as usual, he bent down in front of the woman, preparing to carry her inside. Although Hua Nuan wanted to follow her nature, seeing Isabella approaching her and Huo Zun from afar, she gave up.

After all, Isabella was not very fond of her.

At the wedding in Cologne City, she acknowledged Huo Zun, but not Hua Nuan.

It was the first time Hua Nuan came to the Huo Family castle. There was a long corridor in the distance, lined with exotic plants, private roads only allowed for Huo Family cars, with medieval architecture that had been renovated many times, appearing even more magnificent. As far as the eye could see, it stretched for thousands of acres.

The Huo Family... truly extravagant.

It was said that a few years ago, they were almost on the brink of decline.

It was Huo Zun who developed a new anti-cancer drug, and his pharmaceutical company was listed in America, pulling the Huo Family back from the brink of life and death.

Afterward, it was the Huo Family’s insistence on riding on their reputation.

Hua Nuan slightly pulled the corners of her lips. Even so, she did not dislike Isabella, given that there were difficulties that were unavoidable.

Noble men... are often promiscuous. Frankly, it’s not easy being a noblewoman.

"Zun..."

Isabella, seeing Huo Zun’s tall figure appear in front of the castle, couldn’t hide her excitement.

"Hmm, Grandma."

"Since... after the death of Yang Ruo, you haven’t returned for many years."

"Let bygones be bygones, let’s go inside."

"Alright."

Isabella narrowed her eyes, looking at Huo Zun and Hua Nuan’s interlocked fingers with profound meaning.

Hua Nuan politely greeted, "Hello, Grandma."

Without seeing the figure of Huo Zun’s father, he most likely... doesn’t have the face to meet Huo Zun.

...

Along the way, the servants, upon seeing Huo Zun and Hua Nuan, immediately greeted respectfully: "Young Master."

Young Master, but omitted Young Mistress, Huo Zun’s lips curled into a faint sneer.

Hua Nuan slightly squeezed his hand in the man’s palm, signaling him not to sweat the small stuff.

...

Entering the living room, Hua Nuan glanced around at the perfect European-style architecture, eyes flashing with a dark light.

Indeed elevated and grand, no wonder... the Huo Family became a nobility that many London socialites wanted to marry into.

"Zun, stay for lunch at home, Grandma has arranged for your favorite dishes, and coincidentally, Huo Si heard you were back and wants to see you too. He also graduated from university this year. Your business is wide, he is your brother, you should guide him. Now, your father’s health is so poor, Grandma can no longer rely on him. The whole family relies only on you."

Back then, Huo Zun’s father returned to marry and have children with a noblewoman after abandoning Yang Ruo. So, Huo Si is seven years younger than Huo Zun, with a mother of noble descent, and the Huo Family also being prominent, resulted in Huo Si having a more laid-back personality.

The relationship between the brothers is not actually close.

"No need, I came today with Little Nuannuan to pay respects to you after our new marriage, not wanting to give people a handle, later I will return with Hua Nuan to our newlywed castle, stay for three days, and then after completing business in London, we will set off back to Yuncheng City."

"Grandma, Huo Si is no longer a child, he’s an adult now, who can complete some tasks independently, he doesn’t need me to guide him."

Huo Zun’s response was rather indifferent, drastically different from his previously mischievous self.

Hua Nuan noticed the man slightly exerting pressure on her small hand with his big hand, then turned to hold his big hand, soothing his emotions.

Isabella hearing Huo Zun’s kind of cold words, immediately retorted: "Zun, this is your home, you are the eldest young master of the Huo Family... in the future, this will all belong to you."

"Sorry, Grandma, I’m not interested in these, my home is simple, just me and Hua Nuan is enough, in a place where people respectfully call me Young Master, yet neglect to address Hua Nuan... how can it be called home?"

Huo Zun’s response was eloquent, every word was sharp and to the point.

Hua Nuan inwardly approved, seeing Isabella’s completely darkened face, indeed there was no way.

She herself didn’t expect that Huo Zun had been concerned about the servants’ not addressing her and planned to assert her rightful identity.

"This..."

"Grandma, Hua Nuan and I have already held our wedding, she’s my legitimate wife, if you can’t acknowledge her, then bringing her to the Huo Family is meaningless. Besides, her presence, I never intended for the Huo Family to recognize, I merely followed etiquette, bringing her back to visit you, not wanting her to bear the name of being unfilial at a young age."

Isabella listened to Huo Zun’s determined words, inwardly marveled at how remarkable her grandson was, young yet wise, knowing how to place himself in an invincible position.

Importantly, the kingly aura around him came naturally.

Something she hadn’t seen in the Huo Family people for years.

After a while, Isabella directly narrowed her eyes, then angrily reprimanded the servant beside her: "What are you doing? Didn’t we talk about it properly before, that when the eldest young master and young mistress return, they should be well served, haven’t you seen the news? Don’t you know the one beside the eldest young master is the young mistress?"

The servant was frightened by Isabella’s scolding, hurriedly lowered their head.

"Young Mistress, I’m sorry."

Hua Nuan heard this and smiled slightly, "Old ginger is spicier indeed."
