Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 93: Chapter 90: Special Forces Seedling (Tenth Update)

“Dad, Uncle, why on earth do we have to go to S City? Hadn’t we agreed to let my little sister bring Huo Sining to the Imperial Capital for the New Year? Why the sudden change of heart?”

Sitting on the plane, Huang Jialin took great care in attending to the elders while he couldn’t help but ask.

They say the older people get, the more childlike they become, and when these old folks get a thought in their head, they really can wear you out.

Huang Chengyi and Huang Chengxin, the two brothers, exchanged a glance. Both of them remained silent, which only made Huang Jialin even more puzzled.

Huang Chengyi hadn’t slept all night, with Old Chen’s words running through his mind.

“Chengyi, your family’s Ruining has got a wonderful daughter. She’s so outstanding in both physical abilities and intelligence. Why not send her to the military instead of letting outsiders have the advantage? It was only through someone else that I found out Liang Ruining had a daughter.”

...

“How did I find out? It’s thanks to my nephew, who was doing military drills in S City recently. He just happened to be responsible for the new student military training at your granddaughter’s school. My nephew said the girl excels in every aspect—number one in physical training and very much her father’s daughter in her bearing.”

“With her father’s example before her, that girl must be a tough one. My nephew is the type who won’t act until he sees the prey. He just received orders that they’re re-establishing Wolf Fang and he’s been worried about finding suitable candidates. He came to me, looking to discuss with your senior relatives to see if they could let your girl follow him.”

After receiving the call from Chen Qiyuan last night, both Huang brothers were both shocked and incredulous.

Having heard from Huang Hongying about Huo Sining’s growth over the past decade or so, the Huang brothers felt a deep sense of nostalgia.

Mother Liang and Liang Ruining had both passed away, and Huo Sining was Mother Liang’s only granddaughter. As the uncles to Liang Ruining, they should have taken good care of his child, but due to their negligence, they’d allowed her to fend for herself for eighteen years in other people’s care.

Compared to familial affection, perhaps their feelings of guilt and sympathy for Huo Sining were even stronger.

Out of a troubled conscience and fear of being blamed by Mother Liang and Ruining a hundred years from now, the Huang brothers felt they had no face to show their little sister and niece, which is why they so adamantly wanted to bring the child back to the Huang Family as a form of compensation.

But it was only after receiving Chen Qiyuan’s call that Huang Chengyi realized just how wrong they had been.

They assumed that a girl who grew up in the countryside without parents would surely be timid and lacking in self-esteem. Considering that Huo Sining had been mistreated by her aunt’s family for eighteen years, one would almost imagine the girl to be frail and delicate.

Yet, it turned out that Huo Sining was completely different from what they had expected—a girl who continued her relentless pursuit of strength, a girl who stood defiantly and independently, even without anyone to rely on, displaying a resilience and unyielding spirit reminiscent of Liang Ruining in his younger days.

“Being noticed by the Wolf Fang Troops is proof enough of the girl’s absolute strength. She has not tarnished her father’s reputation. Ruining’s bloodline has finally continued. Now my little sister and Ruining can rest in peace.”

Huang Jialin listened, utterly confused, “Dad, what are you talking about? How does Chief Chen know about Huo Sining? And what’s this about letting our girl join the Wolf Fang Troops? What’s going on?”

“It’s his nephew, Chen Deping. Didn’t you meet him the last time you went to S City? That guy took a liking to Huo Sining, thinking the girl has potential and wants to recruit her into the special forces. So, he went to his uncle Chen Qiyuan, asking him to be the middleman.”

“`

Huang Chengxin also felt somewhat helpless; Chen Qiyuan’s status was extraordinary, and when he personally made the phone call, it was truly difficult to refuse.

“What?!” Huang Jialin was immediately alarmed upon hearing this, “Why has that guy set his sights on Huo girl, that won’t do—Lang Ya is no place for humans to stay. That girl is Ruining’s only offspring; Ruining is no longer with us, let’s not let her…”

At this point, Huang Jialin couldn’t continue because tears had welled up in the two elders’ eyes at home.

Huang Chengyi was silent for a moment before speaking, “On this matter, my opinion aligns with Jialin’s. Anyway, I don’t approve of that child joining the military; she’s already suffered so much. Once she enters the Wolf Fang Troops, there’s more hardship to come. Little sister is gone, and if she were still here, I might have agreed to Chen Qiyuan’s request, she would probably smack me with a big slap on my ear.”

Seeing the resistance and dissatisfaction in Huang Chengyi’s eyes, Huang Chengxin sighed, “Although the idea of joining the military came from Chen Qiyuan, he also knows our family’s situation. If Huo girl is unwilling, he definitely won’t coerce her. We can’t make this decision for that girl; let’s wait until we meet and ask for her opinion.”

Huo Sining and Su Jinyuan hurried to the airport and stood at the exit waiting.

On the way there, Huo Sining had already learned that she was there to pick up the Huang family’s two eldest elders.

Meeting formally on such an occasion was inevitably a bit nerve-wracking, and from the moment she arrived at the airport, Huo Sining was somewhat distracted.

In her past life, she had always considered Huo Yong as her kin, which is why she had worked so hard, only to end up betrayed by her own family, buried at sea.

In this life, she had shaken off her uncle’s family, originally wanting to live a peaceful and quiet life alone, but unexpectedly, by a twist of fate, she had come to recognize her relatives.

She had already accepted Huang Hongying as her aunt; naturally, she held the same expectation towards the other relatives described by Hongying.

After waiting for over an hour, the airplane finally landed, and before long, several people came out of the gate.

The middle-aged man at the front pushed a wheelchair, in which a white-haired elder sat; another elderly man of similar age followed him, and as the two elders caught sight of Su Jinyuan, their eyes lit up, and they both looked eagerly at Huo Sining, their eyes filled with scrutiny and inquiry.

Perhaps it was the overly acute feeling of blood relation, but in that instant, Huo Sining’s nervousness suddenly vanished. With a smile on her face and guided by Su Jinyuan, she politely bowed to Huang Chengyi, Huang Chengxin, and Huang Jialin, “Great Uncle, Second Uncle, Uncle Lin.”

Huang Chengyi squinted at Huo Sining and after a long stare suddenly burst into a radiant smile, “Straightforward and neither servile nor overbearing, this girl is indeed worthy of being a Huang; haha, I like her!”

With that, he waved Huang Jialin aside, gestured for Huo Sining to come and push his wheelchair, causing everyone to be slightly amused and embarrassed.

“How come you don’t want your grandson to push you this time? Don’t you always say Jinyuan is your favorite, that no one else compares? Now that you see Huo girl, have you changed your favorite already?” Huang Jialin, long accustomed to his uncle’s occasional whims, couldn’t help but want to bicker with him.

But Huang Chengyi turned a deaf ear to it all, just tightly holding onto Huo Sining’s hand.

Seeing the elder behaving as such, Huo Sining’s eyes welled up with tears; her heart filled with both sorrow and joy.
