Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 538 - 536: The Identity of the Illegitimate Child

Chapter 538: Chapter 536: The Identity of the Illegitimate Child

The words were like an arrow, piercing through Chu Yanhan’s hopes, but he quickly gathered his spirit, thinking that it wasn’t bad as long as Xia Tingxuan was willing to seek him out.

However, Tingxuan has always been very stubborn; she wouldn’t turn to him for ordinary matters, would she?

"Tingxuan, it’s not Jiayi who’s run into some trouble, is it?" Chu Yanhan guessed somewhat correctly.

Xia Tingxuan took a deep breath, "Yes."

...

After finishing the call with Chu Yanhan and hanging up, Xia Tingxuan sighed with relief.

She didn’t know if it would be any use.

Although the Chu Family was a prestigious family in S Country, in China, they had less influence than the Huo Family.

But now, other than relying on the Chu Family, there were no other options.

She could only hope that the Huo Family would respect the Chu Family enough to spare Jiayi and Zaizai.

——

Meanwhile, outside the hospital, the night had fallen to darkness.

Avoiding the media vans stationed at the entrance, the Huo Family procession entered the parking garage and got into their cars.

The vehicles sped down the road, stopping in front of the Huo Mansion at Disheng.

Jiayi received Zaizai from the bodyguard’s arms and led him out of the car.

At the mansion’s entrance, Auntie Hui, Auntie Li, and a line of servants were waiting for the young master’s return.

Butler Ou helped the old master inside.

Upon seeing Jiayi and Zaizai, Auntie Hui’s face tightened slightly, but she followed Auntie Li, greeting Zaizai softly, "The young master has arrived."

Auntie Hui still looked down on Jiayi somewhat; after all, she was just a woman who bore the Huo Family’s young master, with neither name nor status. What was she, really?

As long as there was respect for the young master, that was enough.

"Prepare the second bedroom upstairs for them to stay in tonight," Huo Zhenyang said, before striding into the mansion.

The second bedroom?

Jiayi was taken aback, the second bedroom was right next to his master bedroom, connected by a door, it was practically an adjoining suite. She quickly said, "Zaizai and I can stay in the guest room."

He paused slightly ahead, turning half his cheek towards her, "Zaizai is the Huo Family’s young master, not a guest."

Jiayi could only purse her lips, mentally rolling her eyes at the man, as she took Zaizai’s hand and entered.

In the second bedroom upstairs, Jiayi led Zaizai inside, and Auntie Hui followed, laying out the beds as instructed by the young master, and taking out fresh pajamas. Just as she was about to go downstairs, Jiayi, busy undressing Zaizai, unable to break away, called out, "Auntie Hui, could you run a bath for Zaizai? I want to give him a bath."

Auntie Hui’s steps halted at the call, her expression turning sour. Did she really think of herself as the young mistress of the house? Or was she deliberately picking a bone with Auntie Hui because she remembered how poorly she had been treated before?

Even though she had given birth to a grandson for the Huo Family, without any official status or recognition, in terms of standing, Auntie Hui was not considered lower than her in the Huo Family at the moment.

No, she couldn’t let this slide on the very first day; she had to take her down a peg or else she would become even more troublesome!

With that thought, Auntie Hui’s tone carried a hint of sarcasm, "Miss Chu, the young master only asked me to tidy up the room, he didn’t ask me to do anything else. As for serving you, perhaps you should look for another maid, to see if they are available."

She could serve the master of the Huo Family, but she hadn’t anticipated serving an outsider.

Zaizai had met Sister Hui once or twice when he came to Disheng before and did not like this old woman, because she seemed to dislike Mommy, and anyone who disliked Mommy, he disliked as well.

Seeing her tone now, Zaizai glanced at Sister Hui and took on the young master’s stature, "If you’re unwilling to serve my mommy, then can you serve me?"

Sister Hui was taken aback, not expecting this Little Meatball to be so protective of his mother. She could only force out a wry smile, "Of... of course, young master."

This was the seed of the Huo Family, after all. The young master had brought the child back home, and the old man had flown in person for this child; how could she dare not serve him?

"Then why aren’t you hurrying to draw the bathwater! Must my mommy say it again?" Zaizai said imperiously, his authority palpable.

Sister Hui shuddered, realizing that the young master truly had a commanding presence, his temperament intact when angry, and hastily went to draw the water.

After preparing the bath, Sister Hui was about to go downstairs when Zaizai scolded her loudly, "Stop right there."

Sister Hui halted, barely concealing her impatience, "What else is it, young master?"

"Did I say you could leave? You are a servant, shouldn’t you be asking if I have any other commands first, and if not, then you may leave?" Zaizai’s little face was stern.

Jiayi almost let out a snort, Little Meatball must have watched too much television.

Sister Hui clenched her teeth, she had worked at the Huo Family for years, and even the old master had never treated her this way; yet today, she was being commanded by a three-year-old kid. Reluctantly, she asked, "Then, young master, do you have any other commands?"

"No, that’s all, you may go! But remember next time to proactively ask, and don’t forget your duties as a servant!" Zaizai instructed sternly.

Sister Hui was so angry she nearly choked.

The little rascal! Kindly returned less than half a day ago and already full of the young master’s authority, will she ever be considered a human being in the future.

He doesn’t even have an official status yet!

Speaking of which, he is the young master of the Huo Family, but like his mother, he’s still not ready to be seen in the light.

If Jiayi is unable to marry the young master, in the end, this child would be nothing more than an illegitimate son, what’s there to be arrogant about?!

Sister Hui’s face turned the color of pure pig liver, deciding to remind this grandiose Little Meatball, "Young master, although I am a servant of the Huo Mansion, from America to China, I have always been a housekeeper, even the old master speaks to me politely, do you know the butler, the one who follows the old master, he has to speak with a smile when talking to me, no one in the entire Huo Mansion has ever disrespected me..."

"So what, you are still a servant. The old master may like you, but that doesn’t mean I have to like you." Zaizai just did not like this old woman, she was rude to Mommy, and he did not feel like showing her any respect whatsoever.

"You—" Sister Hui’s face went from pure pig liver to eggplant purple.

The door banged open, and a cold voice accompanied by footsteps floated in, "He is not wrong."

Sister Hui instantly fell silent, her anger gone, and she bowed her head, "Master."

Huo Zhenyang glanced at Zaizai, then his gaze fell on Sister Hui, "Did you listen carefully to the young master’s instruction?"

Sister Hui, seething with resentment, couldn’t believe she was being lectured by a three-year-old child, enduring the humiliation, but could only nod, "Yes, I heard clearly."

"Heard clearly what?" Huo Zhenyang could tell she was being perfunctory.

Sister Hui could only repeat with deep humiliation, "In the future when serving the young master, I should ask if he needs anything else before leaving."

"If you’ve heard clearly, then you may leave." Huo Zhenyang was impatient.

The bedroom door clanged shut, and Sister Hui’s dejected figure disappeared.

Jiayi’s eyes moved to the man.

Since returning to the villa, he had changed his clothes; now, in a long robe, the slightly open neckline revealed a chest stimulating to the imagination, the bronze hue of masculine luster, with the belt lazily tied around his lean waist.
