Chapter 1394 : A Different Perspective

• "Brother Ji, let me speak frankly. If you were Jingran, with your deep sense of affection and righteousness, I don't think you could bear to ignore your own children, allowing them to be exposed to the elements. This blood bond, regardless of who it is, cannot be disregarded." Huo Yaodong defended Huo Jingran earnestly.
• Huo Jingyue, who was standing beside them, was puzzled. Didn't the paternity test prove that Xiaoting and Xiaohan were not of the Huo family's bloodline? Why are they suddenly acknowledging it now?
• "Brother Huo, what you said makes sense, but at least it was you who proposed the engagement. Hundreds of people on the Huangyue ship witnessed it. Now, suddenly wanting to break off the engagement, others might think that my daughter has some hidden illness or has done something to offend your Huo family. It could lead to endless gossip. Not only would I lose face, but Yanran would also be humiliated. How can we face the world in the future?" Ji Zhonghai stood his ground, knowing that Huo Yaodong was in the wrong and would not argue back. He also knew that Huo Yaodong would show some humility due to their past relationship. Therefore, he had to use strong political tactics to achieve his goal.
