Poor little homeless, Mr. Huo took her home and loved her

Huo Qingzhou glanced around coldly, and when his gaze fell on Zhou Ning, it was much softer.

Seeing the woman's embarrassment and confusion, his heart suddenly tightened.

The next second, he held Zhou Ning's hand and glanced at her coldly: "Are you bullying me?"

Li Liuhua quickly changed her expression, with a warm smile on her face: "Don't get me wrong, we are just joking. Fighting and quarreling is normal in our family."

Zhou Jianping also smiled flatteringly: "You must be Mr. Huo, I heard Xiao Ning talk about you, I am her father."

Before he could say a few words, he was pushed aside by Li Liuhua.

Li Liuhua no longer had the domineering look she had just now, and extended her hand enthusiastically: "Mr. Huo, I'm her mother."

However, Huo Qingzhou ignored her and kept his focus on Zhou Ning as he fixed her hair.

Zhou Ning's nose felt sour.

But Li Liuhua continued to say flattering words beside her.

"We are all Xiao Ning's dearest family..."

"Dear ass."

Seeing that Zhou Ning didn't give her face, Li Liuhua gritted her teeth and felt very embarrassed.

Huo Qingzhou curled the corners of his lips slightly. Even a little rabbit will bite when it gets angry. The little rabbit that has always been obedient and cute in front of him will also show its fangs and claws in front of others.

He was thankful for that, and that she could protect herself well.

"If someone bullies you, tell me. I don't mind making sure they don't see the sun tomorrow."

The cold words made Li Liuhua and Zhou Jianping tremble with fear.

In order to ease the atmosphere, Zhou Jianping brought a stool in a flattering manner: "Mr. Huo, you must be tired of standing. Come and sit down. You also know that family members can have small frictions sometimes, but no matter what, we are still a family, and this cannot be changed."

Huo Qingzhou sat down, his posture still elegant.

Then he reached out and took Zhou Ning's hand.

Zhou Ning was pulled to sit on his lap, and her ears turned red instantly.

She wanted to struggle to stand up, but the man didn't give her the chance and continued to hold her, preventing her from moving.

Zhou Ning was shy. What happened to Huo Qingzhou today? He was not like this usually.

Li Liuhua's eyes turned and she seized the opportunity: "Mr. Huo, you are so good to our Xiao Ning. Xiao Ning is pregnant with your child now. It was not easy for us to raise Xiao Ning since she was a child. Now..."

"Speak directly if you have anything to say."

"This... We spent a lot of money on Xiao Ning. She could buy whatever she wanted. We never treated her badly. Her father and I are just ordinary workers. Look how rich you are..."

Zhou Ning's face changed and he interrupted directly: "What do you mean by never treated me unfairly? Just forget about it."

Li Liuhua groaned in anger.

Huo Qingzhou asked: "How much do you want?"

Li Liuhua saw hope and her eyes sparkled. She stared at Zhou Jianping for a moment, hesitating for a long time before saying, "...five million."

five million? !

Zhou Ning was so angry that she almost had a heart attack.

Why are they so shameless and dare to ask for such a high price?

Although five million is just a drizzle for Huo Qingzhou, it is a sky-high price for them.

Zhou Ning didn't dare to look at Huo Qingzhou's eyes. Her heart was tense. Her parents asked for money in front of a man, which made her lose face instantly. She seemed to have become a commodity for exchange.

The man's voice suddenly rang out: "Hasn't anyone taught you that you can't be too greedy?"

Although his face remained expressionless, the cold words he spoke made the people present feel as if they were falling into an ice cellar.

Li Liuhua was of course not giving up, she cried and said, "We are not greedy, it's our family situation that is special. Xiao Ning's father and I are old now, and we don't know how many years we can work on the construction site. We also spent a lot of money on Xiao Ning in the past, otherwise how could she have the money to get into Jiangcheng University, which is the best university in Jiangcheng."

Zhou Ning sneered inwardly. He used to say in front of her that it was useless for girls to go to school, but now he changed his face.

Furthermore, she was able to be admitted to university because she put in twice the effort.

Just as he was about to refute, Huo Qingzhou said coldly: "As far as I know, you didn't take good care of your daughter."

Li Liuhua and Zhou Jianping looked embarrassed.

Zhou Jianping played the emotional card: "As parents, we did do some things wrong, but we have done a great job raising her to this age."

"Yes," Li Liuhua agreed, "Even if we don't have any merit, we have worked hard. Mr. Huo, you are so rich, just give us some alms. Besides, girls get dowries when they get married, not to mention that our Xiao Ning is pregnant with your child."

Zhou Ning was furious. Her parents' words were like a sledgehammer, hitting her to the ground.

She clenched her fists and wanted to interrupt her parents, but Huo Qingzhou noticed it sharply.

Huo Qingzhou stopped her in time and touched her belly, his emotions stable: "Don't get angry, it's not good for the baby in your belly."

Zhou Ning had no choice but to swallow her words.

Huo Qingzhou then turned to Zhou Jianping and his wife: "I am rich, but that doesn't mean I am a sucker. If this money is used on Zhou Ning, of course I am willing, but I know your thoughts very well."

After hearing this, the latter looked embarrassed as if he had been exposed.

Li Liuhua didn't dare to lose her temper in front of the man. She looked timid and simply sobbed quietly, playing the emotional card.

Huo Qingzhou just stood up, holding Zhou Ning by his side, and said softly: "I won't agree to five million, but I can consider one million."

After he finished speaking, Zhou Ning's pupils shrank.

Does this mean giving money?

She wanted to refuse, but Huo Qingzhou spoke first: "I know that one million is already a large sum for your ordinary family, so I won't give you more time to consider it."

Li Liuhua's eyes rolled rapidly, fearing that the one million would be gone. For them, this was a huge sum of money, one that they might not be able to earn in their entire lifetime.

The two agreed immediately.

Zhou Fei's eyes lit up. With so much money, how many gaming equipment could he buy? And he would also have a place to live in for his wedding.

It feels really good to have tasted the sweetness.

Seeing that they agreed, Huo Qingzhou simply signed a check and put it on the table. Without even looking at them, he took Zhou Ning's hand and left.

Zhou Ning wondered why Huo Qingzhou agreed to their unreasonable request.

This is also a real sucker!

Her steps were as if filled with lead. When she wanted to ask, she saw Huo Qingzhou protecting her by his side. He turned around, looked at the person behind him coldly, and said something that made her tears well up.
