Chapter 264: Watching From the Sidelines
Mr. Huo had always cared about his image. Be it in front of his wife or his children, he had always been an omnipotent and absolute ruler. However, he felt a sense of defeat from Huo You today, something which he hadn’t felt for very long. At this moment, he didn’t want to say anything to Huo Feng anymore. He waved his hand and let him leave.
Mrs. Huo wanted to ease the atmosphere, so she said to Mr. Huo, “At least we have Little Feng. He values relationships so much and is outstanding enough. He will become our pride in the future.”
Mr. Huo also sighed and said, “Yeah, luckily, there’s still Little Feng.”
At this moment, Huo Feng had just walked out of the study when his parents’ conversation rang out through the gap in the door that hadn’t been closed. He couldn’t help but reveal a mocking smile.
In his heart, he gloated and sighed. They were really a muddled couple. His genes were so bad with them being cold-blooded animals who valued benefits above all else. To think that they thought that they’d be able to nurture even tried to nurture children who knew how to be grateful and valued kinship. The only one who would love and respect them unconditionally was that adopted daughter who wasn’t blood-related. However, she was chased away by this shortsighted couple…
Huo Feng looked at the dark corridor and shook his head with a sigh. He thought that this was good too. With such parents, he could implement his plan in peace and not have to feel guilty anymore.
He didn’t return to his room but knocked on Huo You’s door. Huo You lived in the same room Huo Tian had stayed in the past. She always felt that Huo Tian’s things were better than hers, so she always wanted to snatch Huo Tian’s things away. Even if she couldn’t snatch them away, she would destroy them. She was pitiful and detestable.
Huo Feng knocked twice but didn’t get a response. He thought about it and went to the first floor and found a servant who was working meticulously. He asked, “Did you see the young miss?”
The servant kept her head lowered and replied respectfully, “Miss has left. I asked where she went, but I didn’t get an answer. Young Master, do we need to send a chauffeur to bring Miss home?”
“Oh, she didn’t do well in the exams, so she’s not too happy. She probably went out to take a breather, don’t worry.” Huo Feng waved his hand and said indifferently, “In that case, I’ll go back and rest. When she comes back, tell her that I have something to talk to her about and tell her not to run around.”
“Yes, Young Master.”
It was already late. It was actually very dangerous for Huo You, who looked beautiful, rich, and pitiful, to go out alone, but Huo Feng didn’t show any concern for his sister. It wasn’t that he hadn’t thought of the possibility that Huo You would be in danger, but he just thought coldly that even if Huo You encountered criminals outside, got violated, or died, it had nothing to do with him.
He yawned and slowly returned to his room. He had to prepare for his exams and contact his business partners who were overseas. He was also very tired.
Huo You didn’t know the cold thoughts in Huo Feng’s heart. Even if she did, she probably wouldn’t be surprised either. After all, wasn’t the Huo Family just a group of rotten people?
She walked into a bar and the security guard at the door wanted to check her identification documents. Huo You slapped the young security guard’s face and said, “Get lost! Don’t interfere with my business!”
Another security guard pulled his friend back and let Huo You barge in. There were many places such as bars that didn’t follow the regulations. Since this woman was so arrogant, it was best if she provoked a few tough guys and was taught a lesson!
Huo You occupied a booth alone and ordered a row of strong alcohol that could burn one’s mouth and throat. Without any concern for her endurance, she drank a few glasses. Her face immediately flushed red, and the marks left by the slap were less obvious.
She felt the burning sensation in her esophagus and felt extremely happy!
