When Huo Yao went downstairs after putting down her luggage, she saw Huo Xiang still standing in the same spot. His aloof face looked a little silly, which made him look much cuter compared to Huo Tingrui.
Huo Xiang sensed his little sister looking at him. By the time he turned to look at her, she had already averted her eyes. However, he caught a hint of satisfaction on her lips.
Satisfaction?
Huo Xiang blinked. A strange feeling arose in his heart again.
Huo Yao did not notice his expression. Instead, she went to the kitchen and opened the fridge. Since Huo Xiang's aunt was not here and Huo Xiang did not look like he could cook, she had to do the heavy lifting.
Huo Yao's phone rang in her pocket.
Huo Yao took the groceries out of the fridge and took out her phone from her pocket. When she saw that it was her old man, she answered the call and put it on speaker mode. "Dad."
"My daughter, are you home yet?" Huo Jinyan's smiling voice could be heard.
"Uh huh. I just got home," replied Huo Yao honestly. She closed the fridge and asked him. "Are you and Mom coming back for dinner tonight?" Huo Yao asked.
"No, thanks. Mom and Dad have a gathering tonight, so they won't be home so early. Also, I gave Auntie a day off today. Don't worry about dinner. I have already ordered it for you. It should be here soon. Remember to keep it safe."
Huo Xiang had just poured himself a glass of water when he heard his father's words through the speaker. He froze.
His mind was filled with the words' I gave Auntie a day off today '.
Huo Yao held the phone and said, "Oh." Then she replied. "Got it."
She placed the groceries back into the fridge.
"I'm hanging up now. Be careful at home." Huo Jinyan paused before he added. "Don't open the door no matter who rings the doorbell. Got it? It's not safe at night anyway. "
Huo Yao had a strange look on her face. Her old man seemed to be acting strangely today. He never said something like this.
She turned to look at Huo Xiang, who was standing outside the kitchen, and said in an obedient voice, "Don't worry. Brother Xiang is home too."
Huo Jinyan was about to hang up the phone when he heard this. His face instantly turned green. His tone was filled with disdain. "Why hasn't he left yet?"
If one were to say that it was an illusion that he was despised in the afternoon, then it was completely confirmed now.
Holding the glass of water, Huo Xiang felt a little isolated.
Huo Yao tilted her head and looked at her fourth older brother, who appeared to be in a trance. She touched her chin and contemplated for a few seconds before she said, "Dad, I'm on speaker mode."
Huo Jinyan, who had wanted to say, "Hurry up and get him out of this house," choked back his words.
There was silence on the phone for a while.
After a while, Huo Jinyan said anxiously, "Ah, that's it. Your mom and I are going to eat."
As soon as he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Huo Yao raised her brow. She did not seem to feel guilty after the prank. She put her phone back into her pocket and walked out of the kitchen. She said casually, "Dad ordered takeout for us, so we don't have to cook tonight."
Huo Xiang looked at his little sister in a daze. After some time, his lips curved into a stiff smile. "That... is great."
