Chapter 114: Very Frightening
Huo Qi smiled shyly. However, he happened to be dragging a b.l.o.o.d.y mess that barely looked human, so no matter how friendly he looked, he still gave people gooseb.u.mps.
Zhou Manli’s knees felt weak; she wanted to faint, but she couldn’t. Holding onto Song Rui’s hand, her arrogance completely disappeared.
“What’s that?”
Song Yaoyao was curious. Kneeling on the sofa, she stretched her neck to have a look.
“Children shouldn’t be so curious.”
A hand stretched out to cover her face and pulled her back.
“Mmm…”
Song Yaoyao fell back into the man’s arms. Flopping down, she threw away the man’s arms unhappily and glared at him. “What is it?~ What’s so scary? Let me see…”
“There’s no need,” the man replied firmly as he held onto her waist and kept her in his arms.
“But I’m really curious! Huo Qi! Huo Qi!”
Huo Qi scratched his head. In his heart, he didn’t think this was that scary. Miss Song is clearly more brutal than this. Why don’t we just show her? But, as soon as he thought this, he felt a sense of pressure looming above his head. A chill ran down his neck and his hairs stood on end.
“Aiya! Look at you, how can you bring any random item into the house? Hurry and drag it back out!”
Uncle Zhang glared at him and hurried forward to help.
“Someone, hurry over with some cleaning products and mop the floor! The floor is dirty!”
Zhou Manli’s face turned pale. As she watched the old man instruct the helpers in an orderly manner, she remembered how she looked down on Uncle Zhang as just a servant and thought he had no right to be arrogant.
But now that she looked at him, she opened her mouth and felt her heart tremble.
Huo Qi felt disappointed. He looked at the flapping hands and nodded his head. “Okay.”
He was hoping to be credited for this, but look what happened.
Normally, there was barely anyone in the Huo Manor. Why were there so many people now? And Miss Song, what was she doing there?
Huo Qi dragged the guy away in the same way that he dragged him there.
As she looked at the bloodstained path, Zhou Manli would have run away if her legs weren’t frozen in place.
Everyone said that the Huos shouldn’t be provoked, and she experienced the reason during her first visit.
“Sigh…”
Huo Ningxi shook his head. He couldn’t bear to look at Zhou Manli as he stepped forward to help.
“Auntie and Uncle Song, let me show you out.”
Huo Ningxi’s hand fell upon Zhou Manli’s arm. As she listened to his calm voice, Zhou Manli’s eyelids twitched a little.
She felt a sense of discomfort.
The fact that he was this calm meant that he had experienced scenes like this often.
Song Yaoyao was extremely curious, but the man pressed her against the sofa easily, causing her to blush. Even though she was out of breath, she still struggled to break free.
“Gege~ Gege, let me take one glance~!”
The curiosity was killing her. Especially since everyone saw it while her eyes were being covered by Huo Yunque.
“What did Huo Qi bring? Is it really scary?”
The girl’s eyelashes fluttered, tickling his palm.
Huo Yunque nodded his head lightly, “Yes, it’s really scary.”
Huo Ningxi supported Zhou Manli and twitched his lips.
Making his Small Uncle say the word ‘scary’, was a once-in-a-lifetime event.
“Wow!”
Song Yaoyao was surprised. “I want to see it even more now! Gege, hurry and let me go, let me take a look~ Just one look!”
She held onto Huo Yunque’s hand and forcefully stuck out her head.
