Chapter 19: “Brodda... Can I Eat That?”
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
After lunch, Old Master Huo held the little thing’s hand while taking a stroll, ruffling her soft hair with the other hand while smiling, “Sangsang, do you want to meet your older brother with me?”
“Brother... ”
The little thing’s eyes were confused.
What is a brodda?
She bit a finger subconsciously and his childish voice was muffled, “Brodda... can I eat that?”
Old Master Huo froze, “No, you can’t eat a brother.”
The little thing tilted her small face up and softly commented, “But Sangsang never ate a brodda before...”
Huo Chenyu, who just got out of the black Bentley, stared at the scene. “...”
The housekeeper, who was behind him and in charge of leading the way heard the conversation and laughed.
Old Master Huo couldn’t help but laugh loudly as he lovingly kissed the little thing’s forehead, “Why is our Sangsang so cute?”
Huo Chenyu saw the unmasked smile and spoiling expressions and immediately stopped in his tracks rigidly. He slowly clenched his fist and the coldness in the bottom of his heart slowly expanded.
The pair of dark eyes hidden under the boy’s fringe looked at Ye Sang with unmasked malice.
Another child who was raised like a disposable chess piece?
As soon as the idea appeared in his head, Huo Chenyu dispelled it firmly.
No.
She was different from him.
When Old Master Huo looked at her, there wasn’t a single bit of coldness or scheming intention.
His kind and pampering eyes... any human could recognize her identity.
Huo Yuchen laughed silently.
Heh...
So this is his so-called ‘sister’?
“Grandpa.” The instant when Old Master Huo looked at him, the ten-year-old boy looked down and silently held back the malice at the bottom of his eyes.
He obediently acknowledged him, but his cold tone was exactly the same as Huo Yao’s.
Old Master Huo heard his call and his smile faded. He put the little thing down on the ground without a reply, but coldly introduced, “This is your sister, she’s five years younger than you.”
Then, Grandpa Huo rubbed the top of the girl’s head and changed to a warm tone of voice while explaining, “This is your older brother, Huo Chenyu.”
“If he dares to bully you, tell Grandpa and I will take care of it for you.”
Huo Chenyu caught Grandpa Huo’s spoiling yet sincere expressions, and derision flashed across his eyes.
Ha.
So it looked like people from the Huo family weren’t heartless.
They just didn’t like him.
As a tool to them, he must make the Huo family satisfied to avoid getting disowned.
Ye Sang was resting in Grandpa Huo’s arms, struggling over the fact that “brodda isn’t edible”, heard Huo Chenyu’s name. She pondered blankly for a while and widened her cat eyes as if she remembered something.
She pouted her lips and mumbled to herself, “Brodda... Isn’t edible.”
She remembered this ‘brodda’.
In the novel, Huo Chenyu’s contribution to her cheap Daddy’s bankruptcy and having his reputation swept away couldn’t go unnoticed.
Her Dad brought her brother back and raised him up as the heir without any warmth of a father. Even after Huo Chenyu found his biological parents, her cheap Daddy decided to catch his parents to control Huo Chenyu, as well as to prevent him from rebelling against him.
It was in Huo Yao’s personality to be so conceitful, he didn’t know where to draw the line; when things reach the extreme, they could only move in the opposite direction.
No matter how obedient his chess piece was, he couldn’t possibly sit and wait for death after the people he cared about were caught.
Under the male leader, Duan Jinyan’s, persuasion, Huo Chenyu made up his mind to hack into Huo Yao’s computer and stole all records and files of his company.
