The clear blue sky and white clouds always made people want to go out and have fun. They wished they could run under the sun and enjoy their breathing and freedom.


However, Huo Hong was destined not to enjoy this sunlight.


He was forced to lie on the bed. Looking down, he could only vaguely see a esophagus in his mouth, slowly transporting liquid food to maintain his usual vital signs and energy needs in this way.


The room was empty. The curtains were drawn and never opened again, causing Huo Hong to be in a dark state for a long time.


Only the sound of the equipment seemed to indicate that Huo Hong was still alive.


Hearing the footsteps outside the corridor fade away, Huo Hong closed his eyes. His heart was filled with anger, but he couldn’t move.


His weak panting sounded like a broken blower.


It had been an unknown number of weeks since he last called Xu Dong.


Even an extremely precise concept of time would gradually lose its direction in the absence of clocks day after day.


The last time he took the risk to call Xu Dong, it was discovered by the butler not long after.


Huo Hong’s room did not have any communication tools to begin with, and the only landline that was used as a decoration was used. Whether it was the records or anything else, it was only a matter of time before they were discovered, not to mention that Huo Yichen was tricked by Xu Dong later.


It was also because of this that Huo Hong used the butler to attract a new doctor to examine him.


‘The patient’s condition is slowly recovering. It’s quite good. If this trend continues, he might get better after waiting a little longer.” The doctor’s evaluation was very positive.


However, when Huo Hong watched helplessly as the butler heard this, he immediately had a bad feeling.


As expected, not long after the doctor left, Huo Hong’s treatment changed.


The only landline that could contact the outside world was removed, and the servants who came to see the situation gradually increased in frequency. Most importantly, they began to use liquid food and related medicine to control him.


In a sense, apart from his still active brain, Huo Hong’s current situation was no different from a vegetable.


At the thought that Huo Yichen now controlled the Huo Corporation, Huo Yichen’s anger rose more than once.


It was unknown what those trash from the branch were doing, but there was still no movement.


And Huo Xiuyuan!


Even now, when Huo Hong recalled the truth of his biological son being killed, he still couldn’t calm his anger for a long time.


Unfortunately, Huo Xiuyuan, who had already fled overseas to hide, couldn’t receive Huo Hong’s curses.


Ever since Huo Yichen took over the Huo Corporation, Huo Xiuyuan could be said to be like a rat. He was afraid and even traveled to several countries, afraid that he would be found.


As for now, a dilapidated building that looked like it could collapse at any time stood in the slums. It was not too conspicuous. The chaotic situation and various unknown languages were intertwined.


It could be said that all kinds of people had gathered here. Their hair and skin color were different, but they all had the same abject state.


A beautiful and naked woman stood on the street and waved her hand to invite a target who might become her client. The hooligan with erratic eyes leaned against the wall, his body emitting restlessness.


There were even drug addicts who were already high in the corridor.


Huo Xiuyuan pulled down the hood on his head. He felt disgusted, but he had no choice but to blend in with this group of people. Then, he quickly found his room, took out his key, opened the door, and walked in.


However, as soon as he entered, the musky smell greeted Huo Xiuyuan first. Huo Xiuyuan cursed and quickly closed the door. It was also to isolate himself from the prying eyes outside, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.


He had been living like this for months.


On the one hand, he had to be wary of Huo Yichen finding him. On the other hand, he had to be careful of the various dangers around him.


He casually threw the fast food he had bought aside and took out his phone to send a message.


[When can I go back?]


“This kind of life is not for humans at all,” Huo Xiuyuan muttered unhappily. When he was still in the country as Huo Hong’s adopted son in the Huo Family, his treatment was many times better than now.


After a few minutes, the other party replied. [At least not now.]


Huo Xiuyuan frowned in frustration and dialed a number he had memorized.


The other party didn’t answer it.


Hence, he called again and again.


Perhaps the other party had also realized that Huo Xiuyuan was unwilling to give up and was only willing to restrain himself when he answered the call.


Hence, he finally answered the call on the sixth try.


“You always say that it’s not the right time. When can I go back?!” Huo Xiuyuan, who had lived outside for a few months, could be said to have acc.u.mulated resentment for a long time. Therefore, his tone was also conflicted.


The other party was silent for a long time.


“Speak.” Huo Xiuyuan kicked the trash can by his feet impatiently to vent his dissatisfaction. “If you don’t say anything, I’ll take it that you agree to let me go back. Book a plane ticket today.”


“No.” As soon as this was involved, the other party directly rejected it with a firm tone.


Huo Xiuyuan was not surprised by this answer.


He looked down at the trash can by his feet. It had already fallen to the ground, and most of the trash inside had also fallen to the ground, making Huo Xiuyuan feel even worse.


“…We don’t know what’s going on with Huo Hong yet. Huo Yichen has also been preparing to purge the board of directors in the company recently,” the other party said. “In short, you’ll only cause trouble by coming back at this time.”


“Are you that afraid of Huo Yichen?” Huo Xiuyuan asked.


Even though he was also afraid of Huo Yichen, he couldn’t go back now. There had to be a place to vent the resentment in his heart.


The other party asked, “Why do you think you’re overseas now?”


As soon as this question was asked, neither Huo Xiuyuan nor the other party could give an answer.


“…1’11 stay for another three months at most.” Huo Xiuyuan gave a deadline.


He couldn’t remain a coward outside for the rest of his life. Moreover, Huo Xiuyuan had had enough of hiding.


Perhaps it was because of the “peace” during this period of time that Huo Xiuyuan had begun to forget the days when he was Huo Yichen’s opponent Therefore, he spoke firmly now, as if he was not afraid that he would be defeated by the other party when he returned.


The other party thought for a while. “Alright, I understand.”


The call ended just like that.


Huo Xiuyuan looked at the phone that had become a screensaver again, his eyes dark and his mood irritable.


It was unknown which group of lunatics were outside the door, or if they were drug addicts immersed in illusions, but they were playing and humming some tuneless song. Every beat was not in the right place, and it sounded strange and terrifying.


Three months was the minimum period.


However, in such an environment, Huo Xiuyuan couldn’t even stay for a day, let alone a month.


He flipped through the calendar and suddenly stopped when he saw a date.


It was Huo Yichen’s birthday.


Huo Xiuyuan was not a good-for-nothing, so he had already memorized Huo Yichen’s information the day he came to the Huo family, including his birthday.


If there was a birthday, there had to be a surprise..
