"Someone is targeting you?" Grandpa Dian asked.
"Yes." Yu Qi said.
"They made a move on her a few days ago." Long Hui started to talk.
He had been silent and started talking. So, the place that you had been burned down is one of their property?" Grandma Shu asked.
"Yes." Yu Qi nodded.
"Give the information to us, too. We are going to help you." Grandpa Dian said.
"No need, Grandpa Dian. We can manage ourselves. You don't need to trouble yourself. It is dangerous." Yu Qi did not want to trouble the Dian Family.
"Yu Qi, you are one of ours. You are a part of the Dian Family even though you have a different surname. Who knows, with us interfering with this matter, we can catch the mastermind faster." Grandpa Dian stated while smiling.
Yu Qi and Long Hui looked at each other. Long Hui nodded. Yu Qi understood what Long Hui meant.
"We got the information about the matter. But we still need to go through the information. After that, I will give the information to you." Yu Qi said.
"Don't hesitate to use our resource." Grandpa Dian stated.
"Yes." Yu Qi nodded.
"Ray, what is Qi Qi doing?" Grandma Shu saw Grandpa Ray and asked him.
"Young Miss Qi Qi is in her closet room. It seems she asked the young guest, Mr Huo, to try on the clothes." Grandpa Ray said.
Grandma Shu shook her head. "That girl and her obsession." She sighed. "I will go and stop her. If we don't stop her, she might continue until morning."
Yu Qi chuckled.
...
Yu Qi sat in the living room, waiting for the Huo Family to come. Dian Qi Qi wanted to stay but unfortunately, she had classes to attend. Huo Liwei timidly sat beside Yu Qi.
Grandpa Ray finally led some people to the living room. There were a total of 5 people. Two of them were the people that Yu Qi knew. They were Huo Xie and Huo Jinxi.
"Elder Huo, thank you for coming." Grandpa Dian stood up.
"Please sit down." Grandma Shu smiled.
Everyone sat down. Their eyes glanced at Huo Liwei.
"Elder Huo, as I told you in our conversation yesterday, this boy, Huo Liwei, I believe he is from your family." Grandpa Dian stated.
"Just because his surname is Huo?" A middle-aged man snorted.
Huo Liwei leaned closer to Yu Qi. Yu Qi nodded, assuring Huo Liwei.
Huo Xie looked at Huo Liwei for a few moments. "He is indeed a split image of Huo Yaoting when he was younger, don't you think so, Ningkai?" Huo Xie looked at another middle-aged man.
It must be Huo Ningkai, Huo Yaoting's father. It meant this person was Huo Liwei's grandfather.
"I heard this outside world is very advancing. They could change a person's face to someone else." The middle-aged man said.
"Huo Souling. Do you accuse our Dian Family of changing this young boy's face to Huo Yaoting's face? For what?" Grandpa Dian narrowed his eyes at Huo Souling.
"That..." Huo Souling wanted to say more.
"Hou Souling, that is enough." Huo Xie said.
Huo Souling shut his mouth up.
"You are Huo Liwei, right?" Huo Ningkai looked at Huo Liwei.
Huo Liwei was startled and became tense.
"Liwei, this person is asking you. You can answer what you know." Yu Qi rubbed the boy's head.
Liwei nodded to Yu Qi and turned to Huo Ningkai. "Yes. My name is Huo Liwei."
"Do you know who is your father? Where is he right now?" Huo Ningkai asked more questions.
"I don't remember. I don't know." Huo Liwei shook his head.
"But he remembers his name. How convenient." Huo Souling said.
"Mister Huo, I found him at the place where he was tortured badly. At that time, he was lying on the table bleeding all over. His body is covered with scars. I believe he had been tortured for years. Fortunately, he could remember his name." Yu Qi said.
"Tortured?" Huo Xie was shocked.
Huo Jinxi, Hui Ningkai and another one were looking shocked as well.
"Yes. I had some businesses at that place. And accidentally, found him. I can sense that he is a cultivator. Those people cut his flesh over and over again." Yu Qi said.
"We call you to inform you about him. If you don't plan to take him in, our family will adopt him. After that, he will have nothing to do with Huo Family." Grandma Shu said strongly.
"No." Huo Ningkai immediately spoke up.
"If he is truly our family member, we will gladly take him." Huo Xie said.
Huo Xie looked over something. It was a yellow orb. Yu Qi looked over.
"This is an artefact which determines how strong our family bloodline is." Huo Souling said.
"What should Liwei do?" Yu Qi asked.
"He needs to take his hand onto the orb." Huo Jinxi said.
"Just that?" Yu Qi asked again.
"Yes." Huo Jinxi nodded.
How convenient. No need to waste money and time doing DNA tests. She was thinking of making something like an orb.
"Liwei, you can hand your hand like this." Huo Ningkai demonstrated the action for Huo Liwei.
Huo Liwei watched Huo Ningkai action.
"Liwei, go and copy this man's action." Yu Qi said to Huo Liwei.
Huo Liwei slowly stood up and walked to the orb. He placed his hand on the orb. Once Huo Liwei's hand was placed onto the orb, the orb shined brightly.
