Chapter 704: Huo Family’s Heir
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
From the looks of it, the chief steward thought highly of Huo Yao.
Chen Ming cleared his throat and said, “I can’t wait to see her.”
Since Master Jinyan’s other children were not interested in taking over the family business, they could only pin their hopes on Miss Huo.
After all, she was the most intelligent child amongst them and was worthy of grooming.
Moreover, Master Jinfeng was unmarried, so he had no children. He had single-handedly led the clan through sheer force and determination.
After Huo Yulin was abducted, Huo Jinyan swore never to get involved with clan matters. Out of fear that more abductions might happen, he moved back from abroad and went back to City S. Ever since he went back, he kept a really low profile.
Before Master Jinyan got married, he made a promise to Master Jinfeng that one of his children would become the heir of the family and the future leader.
Master Jinyan wanted to leave the family and did not want his children to come back, so he ensured there was a loophole in their agreement. One of his children could inherit the family, but it had to be the youngest child.
Master Jinyan and his wife proceeded to have four boys in a row before they finally had a little girl.
Even though it sounded inconceivable for a girl to take over the clan, Master Jinfeng did not mind making a girl the heir. However, after testing Lu Xia several times, he did not continue talking about getting her to become the family head.
Instead, Master Jinfeng spent years grooming Huo Yulin. Sadly, he was deeply traumatized by the abduction and had no wish to inherit the clan leadership.
The other boys in the family were not good enough to become the head of the family either.
After they found out that Huo Yao was swapped at birth and brought back home, the matter crossed their minds once more. When they realized that Huo Yao was far more intelligent than Lu Xia, they started paying more attention to her.
After all, Master Jinyan’s youngest child was most likely to become the next family head. If she was particularly talented, there was no harm in letting a girl do the job.
In any case, only Huo Yulin could take on the role among all the boys in the family.
Chen Ming pondered for a long time. When he got to this, he suddenly said, “Tsk. Miss Huo has come home for such a long time, but Master Jinyan and his wife refuse to let us see her so as not to scare her. Do you think they are afraid we will snatch her from them?”
Huo Changfeng was stunned to hear this. After he composed himself, he instantly felt enlightened.
Master Jinfeng and Master Jinyan’s agreement was not a secret in the family. The moment Chen Ming brought it up, Huo Changfeng recalled this matter as well.
The more Huo Changfeng thought about it, the more he felt Chen Ming was right. Huo Yao clearly looked at him like he was an ordinary person and was unflustered when he encountered her at the lift.
All these years, Huo Changfeng had met people from all walks of life. Most people would be afraid of him the moment they saw him. It was rare for anyone to be as calm as Huo Yao in his presence.
Only a mature and powerful person could react that way. It was impossible for a young woman her age to react so calmly.
Huo Yao was a smart girl. She was also medically trained and had a calm demeanour. She had a similar aura as Master Jinfeng and was a suitable candidate as heir.
Huo Changfeng touched his chin. “Even though Master Jinyan looks like a careless man, he is particularly devious.”
Master Jinyan and his wife kept trying for a girl after having four boys.. It was clearly a deliberate attempt in the hope that they would not make a girl family heir.
