Huo Xiang sighed quietly. If he did not know better, he would have thought she was his stepmother.
Huo Xiang raised his head and was about to say something.
"Honey, you don't need to ask. He's a grown man. Doesn't he know how to eat?" Huo Jinyan shook his head.
"I was just asking." Song Ning glanced at her husband. She patted her face and quickly walked into the room.
Huo Xiang went speechless. "..."
He did not know if his body had recovered since they moved in, but his heart must have been riddled with holes.
Huo Yao glanced at Huo Xiang's adorably autistic face. She took a sip of soup before she picked up the cake box and placed it in front of him. "The strawberry cake here is pretty good."
Huo Xiang, "????"
What the hell was a strawberry cake?
He was not a girl!
Huo Yao lowered her head and continued to eat as though she did not see Huo Xiang looking at her.
Huo Xiang picked up his chopsticks with mixed feelings. Hunger had caused him to lose his usual elegance. He picked up a piece of fish ball, put it in his mouth, and bit into it. He succeeded in staining his clothes with the oil from the fish ball.
It was awkward.
Huo Yao coughed and did not say a word.
The two of them ate quietly. A thought crossed Huo Xiang's mind. He raised his head and looked at his little sister. "Yao, where did you get the medicine?"
"A friend gave it to me." Huo Yao's voice was muffled as she chewed.
Huo Xiang stirred his chopsticks and pretended to ask curiously. "It must be expensive, right?"
Tong Yu told him that the medicine was priceless according to the experts.
"It's okay." Huo Yao replied casually. She finished the last bit before leaning back in her chair in satisfaction. "I'll give you another bottle in a few days. I promise you'll be as good as new after you take it."
Huo Xiang was stunned. "As good as new?"
Huo Yao blinked at him before she stood up to clear the dishes. She smiled at him as she walked to the kitchen. "Brother Xiang, don't worry. I'm here."
Huo Xiang stared at Huo Yao's retreating figure. Suddenly, his mind went into a daze. He tried to figure out what his little sister meant, but a thought stopped him from thinking too much.
When Huo Yao came out of the bathroom, she noticed that he was deep in thought, so she did not say anything. Instead, she said, "Brother Xiang, I'm going upstairs."
Huo Xiang composed himself. "Ah, sure."
After Huo Yao went upstairs, he stood up and walked to the living room. He sat down on the couch and looked at Huo Jinyan quizzically. "Dad, don't you feel that Yao is a little... secretive sometimes?"
"Acting mysterious?" Huo Jinyan narrowed his eyes. He suddenly grabbed a cushion from the sofa and threw it at his youngest son. "Your sister even brought you supper. You actually think she's crazy?"
Huo Xiang's lips twitched. He had said that he was being mysterious, so why did his father make it sound like he was being paranoid?
He seriously suspected that his father was using this opportunity to beat him up.
Huo Xiang scratched his head and said, "Didn't the Lu family place Yao's grandmother in a small county? Logically speaking, her friends should be limited to her classmates and neighbors in the county. "
Huo Jinyan glanced at him. "What are you trying to say?"
