Not long after, dinner was ready.
At the dining table.
Song Ning looked at her sons and precious daughter and could not help feeling emotional. "Today is the most tidy day in our family."
Huo Jinyan took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cellar and poured everyone a glass. However, when it came to his daughter, he switched it to fruit juice.
Huo Yao went quiet.
"Okay." Huo Yao did not speak much during dinner. She only said a few words occasionally, not because of Huo Yanxi's return, but because she was usually like this.
Although Huo Yanxi's parents were happy that Huo Tingrui was back, they did not forget to take care of their daughter, so the meal went smoothly.
Ever since Huo Yanxi had a taste of regret, he felt too ashamed to return home. He only mustered the courage to come back today because his younger brother was back.
He sat at the dining table and did not know if he was here for his younger brother or if he just wanted to see the others. Since Huo Yao was quiet, he did not say anything and just drank his wine.
In the beginning, Huo Yulin did not notice anything amiss. However, when he noticed that Huo Tingrui and Huo Tingrui barely spoke during dinner, he vaguely sensed that something was amiss.
Huo Yulin asked Huo Tingrui privately after dinner to find out what had happened.
Huo Tingrui pondered for a moment and decided not to hide the truth, so he simply explained the misunderstanding.
Huo Yulin went quiet for a long time before he said, "Brother Yanxi trusted Lu Xia too much."
Although they had been siblings for more than a decade, he should not have been biased against his biological sister.
However, Huo Yulin's expression turned slightly cold at the mention of Lu Xia. His pale skin reflected a cold glint under the light.
Huo Tingrui looked at his younger brother and wanted to pat him on the shoulder. However, he remembered that Huo Tingrui did not like people getting close to him, so he squeezed his hand and gave up.
"You should be the one letting it go."
Huo Yulin smiled bitterly and shook his head. His eyes drifted away. "I want to too."
"Oh yes. Do you still have insomnia at night?" asked Huo Tingrui as a thought crossed his mind.
"I've been feeling much better recently. It's all thanks to the sandalwood incense you sent me." Huo Yulin was amazed at the mention of it. He had bought such incense to help him sleep in the past, but it had almost never worked.
His sister's reaction was unexpected.
Huo Tingrui sighed. "She must have some medical skills, but the incense she made was really effective."
Huo Yulin grunted softly.
In the hall.
Huo Yao and Huo Xiang were playing games while Huo Yanxi sat across from them. He had drunk a lot of red wine and was rubbing his forehead. He felt a little dizzy.
Song Ning noticed that he had drunk a little too much, so she made him some soup to sober him up. Even after drinking a bowl, he was still not fully recovered.
Huo Yulin had just returned from chatting with Huo Tingrui. He glanced at Huo Tingrui and checked his health before he asked him. "Brother Yanxi, have you been busy lately?"
Huo Yanxi tilted his head and looked at Huo Yulin. "No."
"From the looks of it, you must have been drinking too much recently. You should go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow." Huo Yulin suggested.
Song Ning was taken aback. When she regained her composure, she said, "Too much? Didn't you rarely drink before? "
Huo Yanxi lowered his eyes and did not answer her. Instead, he stood up with the help of the couch and said, "It's getting late. I'm heading back."
