Chapter 104: Grandpa’s Visit, Paternity Test

Because Li Xiaoran felt unwell, he specially applied for a week’s leave from the dean and got off work early.

When he returned to the apartment building, they saw a luxurious Starry Sky Phantom parked at the entrance, attracting the attention of passersby.

Although the capital was where the rich gathered, such luxury cars were not everywhere. Especially at the entrance of such an old neighborhood, it was indeed rare for such luxury cars to appear.

When Li Xiaoran saw the license plate number, he had a rough idea who the owner was. He wanted to turn around and leave, but a young man walked out of the car. He was dressed in a suit and leather shoes.

“Xiaoran.”

Huo Zhou strode forward and grabbed Li Xiaoran, afraid that he would run away.

“The Old Master wants to see you.” Huo Zhou winked at Li Xiaoran and said, “If you don’t want to see him, he’ll stand by and let the matter with magazine blow up.”

Li Xiaoran followed Huo Zhou into the car reluctantly.

In the passenger seat of the car sat a handsome and easygoing old man with white hair.

Seeing Li Xiaoran, he snorted and said angrily, “Why? Did I embarrass you? Are you that unwilling to see me?”

Li Xiaoran lowered his face and did not speak.

He had only met this old man once. Just because he looked like the old man when he was young, this old man insisted on acknowledging him.

He said that Li Xiaoran was his grandson.

But the old man’s daughter was called Huo Xinru, and his mother was called Hu Xinyou. They were clearly two different people.

“Xiaoran, why aren’t you willing to acknowledge me?” The old man looked at Li Xiaoran aggrievedly.

No one would have thought that this amiable old man was the richest man in the capital, Huo Guangshan.

Li Xiaoran said helplessly, “Old Master Huo, there are many similar creatures in this world. Someone said that my eyes are like a fox’s. I can’t go to a fox to acknowledge my family, right?”

The old man was very angry. “Brat, there’s evidence that you’re my grandson. I’ve investigated. My daughter, Xinru, became your father’s mistress 30 years ago. She probably felt that it was disgraceful, so she changed her name.”

“This is a photo of my daughter. I’m sure you’ll find her familiar.”

Old Master Huo carefully took out a plastic photo from his wallet and handed it to Li Xiaoran.

Li Xiaoran was stunned when he saw the bright girl in the photo.

Although his mother had left him for many, many years, he would never forget how she had hugged him with tears in her eyes and said something to him before she died.

At that time, her mother had been subjected to too much helplessness and sadness. Those desperate eyes were deeply imprinted in Li Xiaoran’s mind.

Li Xiaoran finally believed that he was the grandson of the Huo family.

Old Master Huo sighed and cut to the chase. “Xiaoran, Grandpa is old and his body is getting weaker by the day. You also know that Grandpa has no children and only has two daughters. Xinping gave birth to Huo Zhou and Xinru gave birth to you. Our Huo family can be said to have few people. Grandpa really hopes that you can go home and acknowledge your ancestors so that I can hand over the Huo family’s business to the two of you.”

Li Xiaoran looked resistant. “Just leave it to Huo Zhou. I’m not cut out for business.”

Unexpectedly, Huo Zhou also protested, “Xiaoran, don’t drag me down with you.”

Old Master Huo snorted and said in disappointment, “Other people’s children and grandchildren are fighting to inherit their ancestors’ businesses, but my two precious grandchildren are unwilling to inherit my legacy. Are you trying to anger me to death?”

Li Xiaoran looked at Huo Zhou slyly and said, “Didn’t you say that we should repay kindness?”

At the mention of saving his life, Huo Zhou was speechless.

When he was in university, Huo Zhou had a habit of sleepwalking. One night, he actually woke up in the middle of the night and fell from the second floor. He was unconscious at that time.

At that time, Li Xiaoran had just transferred to medical school and had yet to move into a dormitory, so he still lived with the business school students at night.

That night, he suddenly heard someone screaming and shouting, so he immediately grabbed the first aid kit and rushed downstairs. He stopped the bleeding in time and fixed the stent on Huo Zhou. Later, the ambulance came and pulled Huo Zhou away. The doctor told Huo Zhou that he was injured in a fatal spot. Fortunately, the wound was professionally treated in time. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

From then on, Huo Zhou worshiped Li Xiaoran as a god. He even said that Li Xiaoran was his second parent.

Who would have thought that these good friends were cousins?

Li Xiaoran was silent for a moment. He suddenly pulled out his hair, picked it up with a tissue, and handed it to the old man.

The old man said angrily, “What do you mean? Do you want me to do a paternity test? Xiaoran, let me tell you, you look exactly like me when I was young. I’m sure you’re my grandson and don’t need a paternity test.”

Li Xiaoran said, “The Li family has done too many disgraceful things. I can’t guarantee that I’m my mother’s biological son. You’d better do a genetic test.”

Master Huo pursed his lips in displeasure.

Li Xiaoran warned Old Master Huo in advance. “If the test results are out and I’m really your grandson, I’ll say the ugly truth first. I don’t want the Huo family’s company.”

The old man was so angry that his heart ached. He held his chest and asked Huo Zhou, “What does he mean? Does he despise the Huo family?”

Huo Zhou glanced at Li Xiaoran. In view of the friendship between the two of them, Huo Zhou spoke up for Li Xiaoran.

“Grandpa, you don’t know. Other than being a doctor at Jinghang Hospital, Xiaoran actually has another identity. He’s the founder of the Angel Group.”

Old Master Huo was surprised. “Angel Group? Isn’t it the new research and development company that developed neurotransmitters?”

“That’s right.” Huo Zhou smiled.

Old Master Huo couldn’t stop smiling. “Aiyaya, Xiaoran, you’re amazing. You’re really Grandpa’s pride. Since your company has only been established for a short time, you must be short of money, right? If you need money, Grandpa will immediately support you. You can have as much as you want.”

Li Xiaoran was at a loss because of Old Master Huo’s unprincipled love. In the end, he said weakly, “If your Huo family has any difficulties, tell me. My Angel Group can help you.”

Old Master Huo was speechless.

“Your Angel Group has only been established for three to four years. How can it compare to our Huo Group’s business empire?”

“Mr. Huo, if there’s nothing else, can I leave?”

Li Xiaoran finally sent Old Master Huo away.

When Old Master Huo left, he was very happy. Huo Zhou asked for his opinion. “Grandpa, about the magazine…”

Old Master Huo said without thinking, “Your cousin is benevolent. I believe what he wants to do will never harm others for his own benefit. Just do it.”
