Chapter 332: No One At Home
It seemed, unfairness really did hurt.
“Huo Qi, let’s go.” She sniffed.
Afraid that others would see her expression, she quickly headed out.
“Hey! Yaoyao! Help me explain things. I was sincere about celebrating your birthday. Don’t go…”
“Mr. Song.”
Huo Qi forced a smile and stopped him. “Our Miss Song needs to go home. Besides, your daughter is over there. Please take a proper look.”
He gestured for Song Rui to look at Song Jingwan. After speaking, he turned and left.
Tong Tong blinked. She suddenly realized what was happening and chased after Song Yaoyao.
“Big Sis! Big Sis Yaoyao! When will I see you again?”
…
The night sky was dark like ink as the car slowly moved away from the Song Family Manor.
The fiery trees, the silvery flowers, and the beautiful light-up signs disappeared into the distance.
Song Yaoyao turned around and watched as the lights slowly faded.
She grabbed a cus.h.i.+on, pressed her chin against it, and looked down in a daze.
Huo Qi secretly sent a message: “Target acquired. Currently returning home!”
Roughly 20 minutes later, they arrived at the Huo Family Manor.
Before stepping out of the car, Huo Qi suddenly called Song Yaoyao back and asked in a fawning manner, “Miss Song.”
“Huh?”
Huo Qi rubbed his hands. “How do you think I performed tonight? Did I look powerful and domineering?” he said as he pulled a pose.
Song Yaoyao glanced at him. “What do you want? Just say it.”
“Ahem…”
In the girl’s observant eyes, Huo Qi’s motives could not be hidden.
He quietly pleaded, “Miss Song, the Master punished me to no salary for two months. Can you help me plead for mercy?”
He was honestly poor!
Because he hadn’t recharged his game account for two days, he had already dropped from the first place of the richest rankings. This was too embarra.s.sing for him!
Song Yaoyao blinked in confusion and asked, “Huo Qi, what did you just say?”
Huo Qi: “Can you help me plead for mercy??”
Song Yaoyao shook her head. “No, before that.”
Huo Qi scratched his head and thought about it. “How do you think I performed tonight?”
A bright and sweet smile appeared on Song Yaoyao’s face. Clenching her fist, she said, “You performed really well! Keep it up!”
Her face was bright, and when she smiled, it was particularly vibrant.
When he saw her smile, Huo Qi nodded emotionally. “Yes, I will!”
“I will go in first then. Bye~”
Huo Qi waved dopily as she left.
When he realized what was happening, he looked at the girl running away and slapped himself on the back of the head.
Wait…
“What just happened?”
Huo Jiu neatened his collar and smiled. “Nothing happened. Let’s go.”
Huo Qi did not think this was right as he lowered his shoulders helplessly. “Fine…”
He would discuss with her again later.
Song Yaoyao ran into the living room. Everything was pitch black.
Amidst the peaceful atmosphere, her racing heart rang in her ear. She took a couple of steps forward and said quietly, “Gege? Are you back?”
No one responded.
“Uncle Zhang? Are you here?”
The room was quiet; there was a dead silence like the manor had fallen asleep.
Song Yaoyao turned around. “Huo Qi, Huo Jiu…”
Where did they go?
Huo Qi and Huo Jiu, who were behind her a moment ago, were also gone.
She parted her lips, so nervous that her palms became sweaty. She felt around for the light but her foot kicked something.
There was a loud bang and something fell on her head and body.
“Waaaa!!” Song Yaoyao jumped in fright.
That was when the lights switched on.
