Transmigrating: I Married the Male Protagonist’s Uncle
chapter-964

Huo Xiao saw that his wife was angry, and he felt upset. She had kept it from him; she didn’t say a word to him. It was one thing for his dear granddaughter to lie to him, but even his wife had lied to him! He was the most pitiful person in the world. Humph! He was angry. “Tell us!”

Huo Ci was annoyed. “Mom, don’t protect her. This is how you guys spoiled her. Look at what she’s done. Is this appropriate?”

Su Xiyin asked, “Then what do you want? You might as well just beat the two of us to death.”

How could Huo Ci dare? “Mom, you know that’s not what I meant.”

Su Xiyin took a step forward and stood in front of Ling Sheng, looking at her son. “Then what do you mean? Are you blaming Sheng Sheng and me for lying to you? Do you want to vent your anger? Just beat me up then. Here, go ahead.”

Initially, Ling Sheng still felt quite afraid, but when she heard her grandma’s words, she was instantly amused. Especially since when her grandma got angry, her voice still didn’t sound harsh. To describe it in one word, it was fierce in a bit of an adorable way.

Huo Ci shot her another death glare. Look at her. How dare she laugh at this point in time? If his mother weren’t around, he would have beaten her up no matter what. He pointed at Ling Sheng and gnashed his teeth ferociously. “Just you wait!”

Ling Sheng hid behind Su Xiyin and closed her eyes before shouting, “Dad, I know I was wrong! Grandpa, I was wrong! I won’t dare to do it again.”

When Nangong Lengyu received the call…

Huo Ci bellowed irritatedly, “Make a trip to my place!”

Nangong Lengyu was in the company, planning for the upcoming shoot. Upon hearing him yell at her without explaining anything, she let out a cold snort and wanted to hang up. She was not very curious anyway. However, she was afraid that there really was something urgent. She controlled her temper and said, “What happened? Tell me over the phone!”

“What could have happened? It’s something I can’t say over the phone. Look at the good daughter you gave birth to. She can even cook up a lie about a fake pregnancy!” Huo Ci’s voice calmed down, but it was carrying a biting rage.

Even when Nangong Lengyu hung up, she still couldn’t digest what had just happened. Fake pregnancy? Sheng Sheng was lying to them. She was not pregnant at all!

Ling Sheng’s attitude toward admitting her mistake was excellent. She knelt on the ground, pinched her ears, and straightened her back. She looked at her father and grandpa. “I was wrong. I won’t dare do it again in the future. I shouldn’t have used this kind of thing as an excuse. I deserve to die. Grandpa, please punish me!”

How could Huo Xiao punish her? She was not a boy either. If she were a boy, he would have already lashed out with the cane without saying anything. No matter how angry he was, what could he do when it came to the granddaughter whom he had raised? “If you want to find an excuse to lie to your father, just tell Grandpa!”

Huo Ci’s face darkened. “What? Dad, are you planning to deceive me together with her? You guys are one family, while I’m the only outsider?”

Huo Xiao glared at him. He got angry just looking at him. “Speak nicely! Stop being sarcastic!”

“Stop arguing.” Su Xiyin gave the father and son a disdainful look and asked, “When Sheng Sheng was at the Su residence, she had her period. Both of you know that, right?”

Huo Ci nodded. It was at the Su residence that he knew for the first time that the term ‘Great-aunt’ did not refer to a person. It was a woman’s monthly period.

Huo Xiao was baffled. He asked, “What ‘Great-aunt’ of Sheng Sheng’s? Yu’er doesn’t have any sisters. Where did this ‘Great-aunt’ come from?”

“What does it have to do with that?” Huo Ci’s face was dark, however, he could not help but suppress his laughter. Look, how many men knew about such a thing? His father did not know either. He finally felt like he was not alone. He had found a comrade.

Huo Xiao still wanted to ask which Great-aunt she was and what her name was.

Huo Ci really found him embarrassing. Stop asking. He tugged at him and informed him in a whisper, “Father, the term ‘Great-aunt’ is referring to a woman’s menstruation.”

Huo Xiao frowned and muttered, “Then, just call it that! How can we know when you girls call it ‘Great-aunt’?”

“Her period won’t come if she’s pregnant. Her period just arrived a week ago. How could she have gotten pregnant a month ago?” Su Xiyin sighed deeply. Look at these men. They were so inattentive, yet they still blamed them for lying.

As long as they paid more attention and asked, even if they did not ask anything, it should not be difficult to check online, right? They could also discover that Sheng Sheng was lying, all right?

Upon hearing his mother’s explanation, Huo Ci let out a low cough. He was still unconvinced. “How could we know about this kind of thing? We’re not women.”

Huo Xiao remembered, but he had not thought much about it back then. Now that he thought about it, women did not have menstruations when they were pregnant. Yin’er was like that when she had gotten pregnant with Ci’er. He had been careless and had not even realized this.

“Sheng Sheng is in the wrong, but as her father and grandpa, do you hold no responsibility at all?” Su Xiyin pointed at them. “You don’t even know this bit of common sense, yet you guys still have the cheek to blame Sheng Sheng? And me!”

Ling Sheng had not expected that there was such a way to counterattack and absolve their blame. She could not help but give her grandma a thumbs-up inside her heart. She was full of admiration.

Ha, men, how could you believe a lie full of loopholes? It clearly shows that you guys didn’t take her pregnancy seriously at all!

Grandma was indeed impressive!

Upon hearing this, Huo Xiao also felt that it was not entirely his dear granddaughter’s fault. Yin’er’s words made sense. If only he had thought about it and asked, or even checked up on it, he would also have realized that something was wrong. He felt quite guilty having this pointed out to him.

He had said that he doted on his dear granddaughter time and time again, but how great. There were so many loopholes in the matter of her pregnancy that he had not discovered at all. His heart ached as he walked to Ling Sheng’s side and helped her up. “My dear granddaughter, don’t kneel anymore. The ground is cold, so be careful about catching a cold. Get up quickly.”

Huo Ci realized that his father’s expression had changed instantly after hearing the explanation; he had been instigated to turn traitor. He held back a mouthful of blood. “Dad, don’t be confused. Shouldn’t we be settling the score with her for lying to us at this moment?”

How could Mom still twist her words like this? So that Dad was no longer angry after just a few words? Didn’t he have any principles? That d*mned brat had concocted a huge lie to deceive them!

“Shut up! How can you be her father?” Huo Xiao pointed at his nose and lectured him. “Why don’t you remember Sheng Sheng’s period? You’re already an adult. Don’t you know that when a woman gets her period, it means she’s not pregnant?”

Upon seeing his father turn around and point the gun at him, and with a gaze as though he was looking at a good-for-nothing freeloader, Huo Ci grew annoyed. He could not help but retort, “Aren’t you embarrassed to criticize me? You didn’t know either, right?”

Huo Xiao’s eyes widened. As he picked up his walking stick and was about to hit someone, the doorbell rang.

Xiaoqi’s reaction was the fastest. He ran over quickly and looked at the man in the surveillance camera. He shouted, “Grandpa, it’s my dad!”

Huo Ci was fuming that his father had been persuaded in just three sentences. When he heard Xiaoqi call Jun Shiyan ‘dad’, his anger surged to the top of his head. His eyes were murderous and dangerous as he ran to the kitchen to get two kitchen knives.

F*ck!

That scumbag Third Master Jun had finally come! See if he wouldn’t directly hack him to death! He would chop him into pieces! Otherwise, it would not be enough to vent his anger!
