Huo Jinyan's smile faded when he heard his daughter's question. After a moment of silence, he said, "Your Yulin was kidnapped when he was 12 years old."
Huo Yulin had ended up like this because of that kidnapping.
"Kidnapped?" Huo Yao was stunned. She had guessed that this was a possibility, but it turned out to be true.
"Uh huh. We didn't live here at the time. For some reason, your Yulin was kidnapped. By the time we found him... he was on his last breath."
A 12-year-old boy had been locked up and tortured by a bunch of vicious people for three whole days.
Every minute and every second of it was excruciating pain and despair for Huo Yulin, who was still a child.
Even though they managed to rescue him in the end, the bright and adorable boy was no more.
Huo Jinyan's voice was deep and slightly trembling. He did not go into detail.
Some things would involve a lot of people if he told them. Moreover, they did not want their daughter to know about the Huo family's past.
The atmosphere in the car became a little tense. Huo Yao looked at her father, who seemed to have turned into a completely different person. She did not probe further.
No matter who told her about the kidnapping, it was a bloody memory.
After some time, Huo Yao said softly, "It's all in the past. Yulin will get better."
"Uh huh." Huo Jinyan looked out of the car window and slowly composed himself.
The father and daughter did not speak on the way back.
Before long, they arrived at the estate.
An ordinary car was parked outside the villa. It seemed that the guest had arrived.
Huo Yao got out of the car, entered the villa, and changed into slippers.
The guest was sitting on the couch with her back facing Huo Yao in the living room. Huo Yao was a little surprised to see her.
"This is my daughter, Yaoyao," said Song Ning as she introduced Huo Yao to her friend.
Huo Yao nodded politely. "Hi, Auntie." Then she nodded to the young woman sitting next to her.
The young woman was none other than Fang Ting, whom Huo Yao had met at the matchmaking session.
She was also the girl her mother wanted to shove into Huo Tingrui's arms.
Mrs Fang smiled at Huo Yao with a gentle expression. "You're so pretty."
Song Ning raised her brow. "Of course. My daughter takes after me."
Fang Ting maintained a ladylike smile as she sat next to her mother. She rarely spoke, but her eyes lit up when she saw Huo Yao.
Pretty little sister.
However, he looked a little familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
Song Ning asked her daughter to chat with Fang Ting. Huo Yao put down her bag, walked over, and sat down next to Fang Ting.
"Sister, should we …"
Before Fang Ting could finish her sentence, Huo Yao interrupted her. "We have never met!"
Huo Yao's expression was so serious that Fang Ting swallowed her words. "... Oh. Maybe I'm remembering wrongly."
"Uh huh." Huo Yao nodded.
He couldn't possibly let the other party know that the person he had ridiculed during their last blind date was the Sea King's younger sister.
Fang Ting scratched her head. Although she still felt that something was wrong, she did not ask too many questions. After all, she was just an idler who accompanied her mother to dinner.
Before long, Huo Tingrui's car drove back to the villa. The moment he entered the villa and saw the person sitting on the couch, his expression froze.
