1662 Came At A Bad Time
Fan Shun glanced sideways at Shangguan Hou before looking at the Huo residence’s main building. The door was open and seven to eight maids were busy moving things.
Fan Shun veered his eyes. “We probably came at a bad time.’”
Shangguan Hou was confused. “Huh?”
“The Huo family is probably receiving a special guest,” said Fan Shun mildly.
Shangguan Hou looked at Fan Shun and promptly guessed. “Mr. Fan, do you have a spy in the family?”
A knowing look emerged in Fan Shun’s deep blue eyes. He straightened his sleeve with his slender finger before he uttered three words nonchalantly. “Just a guess.”
When they first arrived at the residence, judging from the butler’s words and the maids’ actions, it was clear they were in the midst of receiving an esteemed guest.
Moreover, the Huo family was a powerful clan, but Huo Jinfeng was surprisingly dressed casually. He clearly did not come dressed in a casual outfit for him.
Shangguan Hou also looked at the main building. However, he was not interested in their guest. He simply said, ” No matter what, we aren’t leaving entirely empty-handed.”
He now knew that Huo Jinfeng knew Shangguan Tong, so they could use this to make her show her face. Moreover, Shangguan Yu was also related to the Huo family. No matter how things changed, they remained in the same circles.
Shangguan Hou pursed his lips.
Fan Shun’s eyes landed on Shangguan Hou’s knee. “Mr. Shangguan, you were too rash.”
The moment he heard what he said, Shangguan Hou felt embarrassed and angry. Ever since he had left the Shangguan clan, other than Shangguan Yu, he had never suffered such humiliation.
Sure enough, they shared the same DNA.
He could tell Huo Jinfeng’s health was not doing well. Even though he was unable to observe him at a close distance, his breathing was weak. Huo Jinfeng lived a dangerous life and his poor health seemed ironic.
Shangguan Hou narrowed his eyes. Just as he was about to tell Fan Shun about Huo Jinfeng’s health, his phone rang. He paused and retrieved his phone.
It was Qiao En calling him. He answered the phone quizzically.
Fan Shun opened the car door and got into the car.
Shangguan Hou did not say much to Qiao En. They simply made plans to meet and ended the conversation. He tightened his grip on the phone slightly before he quickly got into the car.

Meanwhile, in the living room.
“Master Jinfeng?” Huo Jinfeng’s subordinate was standing beside him. After Fan Shun and Shangguan Hou departed, Huo Jinfeng sat there without saying a word. He had never seen his boss react this way.
He could not resist calling his boss.
Huo Jinfeng snapped out of his thoughts. He glanced at his subordinate and said, “Investigate Shangguan Hou. I want to know everything about him.”
The subordinate nodded and acknowledged him.
Huo Jinfeng thought about everything Shangguan Hou had shared. Huo Jinfeng called his subordinate back just as he was about to walk off. “Check on the Shangguan clan as well. The more information the better.”
“Yes, Mr. Huo.” The subordinate had already guessed that his boss would give this order. After all, he had served Huo Jinfeng for over a decade. He also knew a little about Huo Jinfeng’s history.
Mi Tong was an unresolved matter in Master Jinfeng’s heart.
“Uh huh,” acknowledged Huo Jinfeng. He raised his hand and gestured for him to go.
After his subordinate left, Huo Jinfeng sat in the room for over ten minutes before he stood up and went inside.
The butler quietly followed behind him and went towards the main building.
