At noon, Huo Jinyao came back. The company was far from the mansion, so they hadn't expected him to come back for lunch.
Su Qingsang felt uneasy when she met Old Master Huo's playful glance. Xu Ruoli's eyes lit up when she saw Huo Jinyao, but the light soon faded.
Liu Tongjia was depressed after having heard Old Master Huo's words and did not say anything when her son returned home.
Old Master Huo was glad to have his grandson back for lunch. After serving the food, Huo Jinyao sat beside Old Master Huo as he was asked to and began to show his affection again. Like he had done the day before, he put select bits of food in Su Qingsang bowl and helped her to some soup from time to time.
Liu Tongjia had already seen this behavior previously, so she had no other reaction except getting a headache.
