Chapter 46: Confidence
The contempt in Mr. Huo’s eyes infuriated Ding Chen. Ding Chen almost wanted to roll up his sleeves and punch him but was stopped by Huo Tian, who was behind him.
Huo Tian looked at Mr. Huo calmly. She wasn’t sad or angry because of his attitude.
“Mr. Huo, what are you trying to do? You can just say it. There’s no need to think of ways to anger me and my family.”
This time, the way Mr. Huo looked at Huo Tian changed a little. He was both surprised and impressed. “It seems like you’ve improved a lot after leaving the Huo Family.”
Mr. Huo walked up to Huo Tian and Ding Chen and placed the huge IOU in their hands.
“Huo Tian, as long as you take the initiative to leave Qingli High School and don’t appear in front of Huo You again, I’ll invalidate this IOU. How about that?”
“Has Huo You finally realized that her methods can’t force me to drop out of school, so she turned to ask her parents to step in?”
Huo Tian took the IOU and looked at it carefully, then slowly tore the paper apart. “Mr. Huo, you brought a copy to talk to me. This makes it hard for me to believe your sincerity.”
“If what I brought is the original copy of the IOU, would you have agreed to my proposal?”
Huo Tian shook her head and laughed. “How could I possibly agree with that? This is simply wishful thinking.”
Mr. Huo’s expression turned cold. “Huo Tian, you should know what this 20 million means to your current family.”
Without waiting for Huo Tian to speak, Ding Chen sneered. “Please, self-righteous Mr. Huo, 20 million might be an astronomical number to a family like ours, but there are things more important than 20 million in this world. That is our family’s self-esteem and backbone. We won’t compromise because of this.”
“I didn’t care about withdrawing from Qingli High School in the beginning.”
Huo Tian glanced at Ding Chen and Bi Ying, who were beside her, then at Si Huan, who was on duty at the school gate not far away. She eventually then met Mr. Huo’s gloomy gaze.
“Mr. Huo, thank you for making me change my attitude. Regardless of whether it’s taking the initiative or being passive in this matter, I won’t drop out of school no matter what. If you guys have any other tricks up your sleeve, feel free to use them. Let’s see if you can force me to do so!”
“Do you think you can go against the entire Huo Family? Huo Tian, you used to be a part of the Huo Family. I think you should understand how influential the Huo Family is. Putting aside the fact that we just want you to drop out of school, it’s not difficult for us to even have some accidents happen to you or your family and friends…”
“Don’t you dare touch them!” Huo Tian’s expression turned cold instantly. She met Mr. Huo’s gaze and repeated each word with a pause in between, “Don’t you dare touch them!”
Mr. Huo did not want to admit that he had been frightened by the gaze of a little girl who was not even 20 years old. However, at that moment, he did feel like he had been targeted by a prey. Cold sweat broke out on his back.
Mr. Huo relied on his strong willpower to force himself not to back off. He wasn’t just holding onto his own appearance, but also for the Huo Family’s honor. However, his expression was a little uncontrollably distorted.
“Huo Tian, this depends on your choice. If you take the initiative to leave the Huo Family’s circle, I won’t chase after you relentlessly. But if you insist on blocking the path of Huo You and the Huo Family, it’ll be hard to say.”
“Then let’s wait and see. I’d like to see how capable your Huo Family is.”
On the way home, Ding Chen could not help but feel worried. He was not worried about his safety, but whether anything would happen to Huo Tian in school.
“Tiantian, why don’t we transfer schools?” Ding Chen was hesitant. “Qingli is an elite school. There must be many unbridled second-generation heirs there. I’m worried that you’ll be bullied there.”
“Don’t worry, Uncle. In terms of being unbridled, I don’t think anyone in the school can compare to me.”
Ding Chen was stumped and paused for a long while. “That was in the past. Haven’t you left the Huo Family? With no one to back you up, how are you going to continue to act unbridled?”
“The current me doesn’t need any family to back me up anymore.” Although Huo Tian was sitting in the backseat of lousy Xiali, she revealed an arrogant demeanor. “My capabilities and my knowledge will become my confidence. Uncle, don’t worry about me, okay?”
Ding Chen also felt Huo Tian’s oppressive disposition and nodded involuntarily.
He was immersed in his niece’s domineering disposition. It was after a long while did he realize that Huo Tian and Bi Ying, who were sitting in the back row, were already discussing topics that he did not understand.
Bi Ying said, “No, your design will cause an overload of the electrical charge. This is already considered a lethal weapon. According to current regulations, manufacturing will definitely be prohibited!”
Huo Tian frowned, feeling a little unwilling. “Is it really impossible? This intensity won’t electrocute someone to death…”
“Not even if it can’t electrocute someone to death!” Bi Ying’s attitude was very firm.
Ding Chen could not help but shudder as he listened to them discussing if something would electrocute a person to death. He quietly raised the temperature in the car.
