n“How could you tell that I’m unhappy?”

n

nYe Sang titled her small head to the side and hesitated for a few seconds as she wanted to hold her brother’s hand. But Huo Chenyu suddenly took a step back and looked at her in awe.

n

nShe realized and saw the boy’s slightly disgusted and resisting expression, and the little thing pouted and took her hands back, feeling wronged.

n

n“Sangsang just knows…” Ye Sang stared softly at Huo Chenyu, the way she tilted her head to the side made her look like she was a puppy waiting to be fed.

n

nShe had always been sensitive to human emotions.

n

nBrodda was… obviously unhappy.

n

nBut-

n

nThe little thing didn’t know how to say these things out loud.

n

nHuo Chenyu masked the mockery in his eyes and pulled an almost-perfect smile on his face.

n

nHe lowered his voice at her, “If you’ve cried enough, let’s go eat…”

n

nThe young boy didn’t even bother to give her a second glance as he walked downstairs towards the dining table.

n

n“Brodda…” This time, the little thing learned from the lesson and pouted in grievance without trying to hold her brother’s hand.

n

nHer eyes were red, and because she was afraid that her Grandpa would see that she cried, she obediently lowered her head and violently dug into her food.

n

nShe was so sensible that it made him feel bad for no reason.

n

nHuo Chenyu only glanced at her once before looking down.

n

nHe was scared that he was going to become soft-hearted if he continued to look at her.

n

nThe young boy couldn’t help but let his thoughts run wild with his head lowered.

n

nHuo Yao was such a smart man but his daughter was so stupid.

n

nShe was a total idiot and she would only be bullied if she was born outside the Huo family.

n

n“Sangsang, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you looking up?” Old Master Huo, who sat at the head of the table, frowned as he was the first to notice something strange.

n

nThe little thing loved to act like a spoiled child and she should be throwing herself at him for hugs.

n

nHow could she possibly sit so obediently and eat like this?

n

nThe little thing subconsciously hid her hands behind her back and blinked her dark eyes, and her eyes reddened as tears dropped down into her small bowl.

n

nShe looked at her tiny hands.

n

nBecause she was holding the spoon, she didn’t get time to clean the wound on her palm and it was burning painfully.

n

nThe little ball who was always afraid of pain forced her tears back and stopped herself from wailing.

n

nShe was scared that her brother would be in trouble if her grandpa noticed.

n

nHowever, Old Master Huo obviously already realized something.

n

nHis face suddenly grew cold and he picked up the little thing from the stool into his arms.

n

nSeeing that she was trying to hide her hands, Grandpa Huo quickly grabbed the little girl’s wrist. He saw her red and swollen palm and his eyes became cold. Gloomy and dark weren’t enough to describe how bad his expressions looked like.

n

n“Who did this?” Old Master Huo lowered his voice but he was furious.

n

nHe wanted to put her in his hands to protect his dear granddaughter, how could they torture her like this after a mere few days?

n

nWhen he’s gone in the future, and with that brat Huo Yao’s cold personality, wouldn’t they bully his baby granddaughter every day?

n

nAll the maids instantly kept quiet out of fear.

n

nThe little thing quickly ran into Old Master Huo’s arms and rubbed the tears hanging from her lashes. She tilted her head up slightly and tried to comfort her grandpa like an adult, “Grandpa, don’t be angry.”

n

n“Sangsang accidentally fell down, it has nothing to do with them…”
