"What kind of attitude is that?" Huo Ci shouted.
Huo Ru didn't buy it. She sneered. "My attitude is the same as yours."
"Dad, don't be angry. I just feel uncomfortable all of a sudden." Huo Yun seemed to be trying to stop the fight, but she was actually fanning the flames.
"What else is there for her to feel uncomfortable about? You don't have to be kind, look at your heartless sister. Our family didn't force you to get engaged back then! I was the one who forced you to get engaged? You said you wanted to get engaged from the beginning and broke off the engagement just like that, do you think marriage is a joke?"
"What do you mean by that? Don't you see what he's doing? He's already like this before he's even married. After he's married, do I still have to stay at home and serve his mistress? Huo Yun has the tolerance, but I don't. I'm not like some people who are addicted to being a mistress."
Huo Ci was so angry that he covered his chest. His index finger trembled as he pointed at her and questioned, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"I've already made myself clear. If you don't understand, you'd better go to the hospital to take a look. I still have something on, I'll leave first." Huo Ru walked past him and pulled her luggage to leave.
"You're leaving? If you dare to go out today, our Huo family won't have an ingrate daughter like you!"
Jiang Li said angrily, "Old Huo, we're all family. What are you talking about in a fit of anger? Doesn't Xiao Ru still have to stay at home to prepare for her wedding? The Yun family's wedding is only a few days away. If you let Xiao Ru leave, how will we explain it to the Yun family?"
Huo Ru sneered. The mother and daughter were like needles hidden in cotton, each more suggestive and provocative than the other.
She raised her hand and slapped Jiang Li's face.
"Slap!"
Huo Ci immediately pushed Huo Ru away and shouted, "What are you doing?! You even hit your own elder?!"
"I did. What can you do? I don't have such an elder. It's just a mosquito that keeps buzzing in my ears, of course I have to hit it."
"Sister, if you have anything to say, just come at me. Don't hurt my mother," Huo Yun cried.
Jiang Li was also very capable, she did not criticize Huo Ru. Instead, she retreated in order to advance. She covered her face and pulled Huo Ru. "Old Huo, don't be angry. She was just impulsive, don't fall out with her because of me."
For a moment, all the grievances that Huo Ru had suffered and all her resistance became the impulsive actions of an insensible little girl.
Huo Ru pushed aside the luggage and stood in front of her. The pretentious mother and daughter sneered. "I really don't care about being a member of the Huo family, I can't become the target of your business. Find someone else. I won't forget everything you've done, an eye for an eye."
"What did you say?! I dare you to step out!" Huo Ci panted violently.
However, Huo Ru had already boarded the cab that she had called early and left.
Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.
Other than the Huo family, there was also Yun Feng, who had moved all his matters for the week online as much as possible and was rushing back.
He looked tired. The light from the computer screen shone on his face, reflecting a faint white light.
His personal assistant Hao Ming brought over a cup of black coffee and a pile of documents. His heart ached as he said, "You could have stayed there for a week and dealt with it slowly. There's nothing urgent at the company here, you don't have to force yourself to come back."
Yun Feng looked up at him and said, "It's my private matter. It's been hard on you, go and rest first."
Facing such a workaholic superior, Hao Ming could only retreat and leave with a sigh.
While Yun Feng was taking a breather from his complicated work, he looked out of the dark car window. The girl's face, which was pretending to be calm, appeared in front of him. He couldn't help but smile, the plane was about to land in 20 minutes.
A bell suddenly rang in the cabin that was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly. Only his assistant and Huo Ru knew his private number. The assistant was beside him, so there was only one person who could make this call.
He picked up the phone without thinking. "Honey? What's the matter?"
It was four in the morning. It wouldn't be a good thing for the lady to contact him now.
Sure enough, there was loud music on the other end of the phone, but the girl didn't speak for a long time.
For a moment, countless worst thoughts surged into his mind.
He raised his voice and asked again, "Honey? Are you there?"
"Boohoo…" A soft cry sounded. The girl's voice sounded drunk. "Hubby, can you bring me home?"
