Chapter 964: Had A Child In Their Old Age
After listening to Huo Chenhuan’s explanation, Su Yayan finally understood.
No wonder no one had ever mentioned this in all these years. No wonder that although Huo Qihan was only the foster son of the Huo family, he had been able to control the Huo Corporation safely for so many years. No one had ever used his status as the foster son to attack him… to pull him down from his position.
If it were some ordinary wealthy family, even if their parents wanted to hide it, they would more or less reveal some information.
However, the Huo family did not. From this, it could be seen that Huo Chenhuan’s parents really treated Huo Qihan as their son. They had considered every aspect to make his life easier.
Unfortunately, he was not worthy!
“You just said that it’s not easy for your parents to have children, then you…”
“It’s not easy, but not impossible.”Huo Chenhuan’s expression softened as he spoke, “My mother was almost 50 years old when she was pregnant with me. She was an old woman. My father was worried that it would be dangerous for her to give birth to me. He didn’t want to have me from the start, but my mother refused. She thought that God must have a reason for her to have me at this time. Since she’s pregnant, she should give birth to me. It’s not like she can’t afford it.”
Huo Chenhuan could not help but laugh. “Because of this, my mother almost got a divorce from my father. Of course, my father wouldn’t agree. He could only compromise and agree to my mother giving birth to me. “After I grew up, my father often talked about this matter in my ear. He felt that I had ruined their relationship. They’ve been married for so many years and have never had a major argument. But my mother actually wanted a divorce from him over his request to not have me.”
Of course, it was in a joking tone, but Huo Chenhuan still could not help but smile when he thought of that sour and jealous look.
Su Yayan was affected by his emotions, and she also smiled.
...However, at the same time, she also felt a little regretful. If she could live in the same era as Huo Chenhuan’s mother, she might have helped her to have a child of her own early on.
If that was the case, they might not have adopted Huo Qihan, and the rest of this would not have happened.
But on second thought, if she really got what she wanted, she would not be able to meet Huo Chenhuan and be with him at the right time.
In this world, there was always a gain and a loss, and it was difficult to have both.
After learning that Huo Qihan was not of the Huo family’s bloodline, but only an adopted son, Su Yayan’s mood became heavier, and she finally had an answer to some of her previous doubts.
“No wonder you’re so distant from him. Has he been bullying you since you were young? He acts nice in front of your parents, but he treats you differently when it’s just the two of you?”
Huo Chenhuan saw his wife’s heartache and she looked at him as if she was looking at a poor little girl who had been bullied since she was young.
“Actually, I didn’t spend much time with him. When I was young, he was very nice to me. He would spend my birthday with me and buy me toys. Unfortunately, he married his wife, and my mother didn’t get along with that woman. On account of Huo Qihan, I didn’t want to get into a conflict with that woman. My father couldn’t bear to see my mother suffer, so he often took me and my mother out to the small villa on the mountaintop where I took you before.”
Now that he thought about it, it seemed that the relationship between the two families had become inexplicably tense after the woman entered the house.
Although there was no real conflict, it was this kind of undercurrent hidden in the calm that made people feel more depressed and gradually drifted away.
