Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 1252 - 1271 Intentional

Chapter 1252: Chapter 1271 Intentional

So she deliberately put on a wronged expression and said cautiously, "Dad, it was all Bei Jiang’s doing. He threatened me that if I didn’t marry him, he said he would never forgive me."

Hahaha... It’s really nice to tattle! Back then, Bei Jiang mocked her for being so dumb that she couldn’t even tattle; this time, she’d let him experience it himself.

Wait a minute... something seems off! Nan Fei suddenly realized, had she just blurted out and called Huo Linong ’Dad’?

It must have slipped out comfortably from her past life, plus she had formally visited their home now, so she hadn’t noticed. Oh well, since she had chosen Bei Jiang, his father was now hers.

The moment Huo Linong heard Nan Fei call him ’Dad,’ he was so thrilled he almost started dancing. He hurriedly pulled out a stack of money from his pocket and stuffed it into Nan Fei’s hand without even using a red envelope, saying excitedly, "Here’s for changing how you address me, don’t dislike it."

"This damn fool!" Huo Zhenchuan slammed the table hard, causing the solid wood dining table to resound thunderously, "He has completely disgraced our Huo family. Wait till this young man returns, I’ll break his dog legs. What a mess, a thug, acting out as a soldier..."

Huo Zhenchuan cursed and complained for ten minutes, not only without using any swear words but also without repeating himself.

Nan Fei was astounded.

Yu Juntuo teared up pitifully, his warm hand gently patting Nan Fei’s shoulder as he comforted softly, "Good child, it’s our Huo family who has wronged you! It’s our mistake, clearly, your mother-in-law had already arranged your marriage with Bei Jiang, yet it was our family who erred first. Then this kid Bei Jiang acted too ruthlessly..."

Nan Fei couldn’t help but laugh and cry, but her eyes gradually moistened. The hurt and pain brought by her younger sister’s betrayal and hatred seemed not so unbearable anymore.

A warmth spread in her chest; this was the first time the Huo family had brought her warmth, making her gradually like it here.

In her past life, she never knew about the Huo family in Imperial City or people like Huo Zhenchuan. Her previous impressions were only what she had heard, that they were not easy to approach, but having actually interacted with them now, they weren’t so cold and aloof.

Nan Fei felt relieved, having new expectations for life in the big courtyard.

Fu Xinwu sidled up to her and whispered, "My grandfather and the others are just fierce towards strangers, but they’re very protective of their own. Now that you’re a daughter-in-law of my uncle, they’ll protect you."

"Right!" Nan Fei nodded vigorously.

She could indeed feel it; the Huo family truly was protective. The fact that someone like Bei Jiang, a troublesome child, hadn’t been kicked out of the house spoke volumes.

Jiang Yang, looking adorable with his head tilted, was completely puzzled. What Sister Nan Fei said sounded so strange! He remembered that his brother-in-law hadn’t actually threatened Sister Nan Fei, had he? If there really had been a threat, he would be the first not to let his brother-in-law off the hook.

Humph!

Jiang Yang clenched his fists.

At this moment, on the deep blue sea, a cruiser was heading towards The Mediterranean Sea, flanked by two escort ships. The large deck housed various weapons and aircraft, clearly fully armed.

Due to the good weather, many people were out on the deck. Among the most noticeable was a group of special forces gathered on the left side of the ship.

Leading them were Lei Hao and Tu Lou, who, oddly enough, were engaged in a conversation.

Not far away, Huo Bei Jiang, wearing a white vest that revealed his muscular and well-defined arms, was talking to Tu Cheng, with the reserved and steady Lu Jin following by his side.
