Chapter 797: Status Symbol (1)
Ye Xigu and the others had been here for a long time. Upon seeing Ling Sheng get sent away by Huo Ci, they knew that their family had to talk, so they bade farewell and left.
Ling Sheng’s room was on the second floor. It was a very big and bright room. It was decorated like a little princess’ room, and the decoration was the best. The big bed was a round, princess bed that could revolve. There was even a brilliant crystal canopy hanging from it. It was dreamlike.
There was also a separate washroom and dressing room. The clothes hanging in there were all new season products from various luxurious brands. There were hers and Xiaoqi’s.
The room was very big, and there was a plush rug placed on the ground. When Xiaoqi reached his new house, he ran around to familiarize himself with the new environment and even went to the study room.
The study had been renovated, and there was a warm blanket laid on the ground. There was also a small slide, a ball pit, and a small shelf full of Xiaoqi’s favorite picture books and even Lego toys.
Huo Xiao looked at Ling Sheng. “My good grandchild, do you like it?”
Ling Sheng nodded. She liked it. Of course, she liked it. “Grandpa, you didn’t have to go to so much trouble.”
The decoration was a little too nice. The room was also really big—one-third the size of her father’s place. It was truly luxurious. She would not be staying for long during the New Year.
“It’s fine so long as you like it. What trouble are you talking about? I got the fifth son of the Lu Family to design it for you.” Huo Xiao was very satisfied. As long as his dear granddaughter liked it, he would be happy.
Su Xiyin was watching over Xiaoqi, and playing with him in the study. She had not seen him in more than ten days, so she missed him very much. She could not get enough of him.
Ling Sheng had brought her luggage over herself, but she had not expected her grandpa to prepare everything. She went to the dressing room to unpack her luggage and put her clothes in it.
When she came out, she heard people arguing at the door.
“Father, how can you not keep your word? You promised me that you’d let Feifei stay in this room. We had agreed last year during the new year.” Huo Family’s Fourth Sister-in-Law, Xiao Hui, was angry as she tried to reason with him.
Two days ago, she had seen the Old Master decorate the room very carefully with much fanfare and even invited the Lu Family’s Fifth Brother to design it. She had been overjoyed. She thought that Feifei’s years of hard work had not been in vain after all. The old man had finally remembered to treat her better.
However, she had not expected the old man to give the room to the b*stard Huo Ci had brought back in less than half a day she had been out!
As expected, he had never really liked Feifei. Why would he suddenly be so concerned about her? It turned out that he had prepared this for that illegitimate daughter!
“When did I agree? This room belongs to my Huo Family’s eldest granddaughter. How can I randomly let an outsider stay in it?” Huo Xiao’s face was cold and severe.
“Father!” Xiao Hui looked at him in disbelief. She looked like she was about to cry from anger as she said furiously, “So my Feifei has never caught your eye in all these years? Feifei grew up by my side and treats you as her biological grandpa.Is she not even worthy of living in a room? Can’t she compare to a mere illegitimate daughter?”
This room was specifically reserved for his granddaughter by the old man. It was the best room in the house—in terms of lighting and ventilation, and it was also the biggest one. The old man liked granddaughters, but he was not that blessed. The house was full of sons.
After she had given birth to her eldest son, she had brought her sister-in-law’s obedient, sensible, and sweet-tongued youngest daughter over. She had wanted to make the Old Master happy. After she controlled the old man, he would have to favor their particular branch of the family. He had even changed Feifei’s surname to Huo.
Who knew that this old man would only like the granddaughter in his imagination? No matter how much Feifei tried to please him, he had always been indifferent to her.
