âI have some documents for you to sign regarding the new product launch.â After saying that, the man looked toward the end of the road. The car that had nearly caused an accident had already disappeared. He frowned. âWhat was wrong with that car? It sped up instead of decelerating in a neighborhood. Iâll check the car plate and get the police to talk to him.â
Nangong Lengyu thought, the police are useless. Look at who the driver is! The police could not control him. âThereâs no need. Letâs go in!â
Huo Ci was full of rage. When he got home, he realized that the house was dark and quiet. He pushed Ling Shengâs door open aggressively and bellowed, âLing Sheng!â
The bedroom was dark and quiet. Under the light of the living room, one could vaguely see a human-shaped object on the bed.
âI know youâre not asleep. If you have the guts to bring a man home, donât pretend to be dead in front of me!â Huo Ciâs eyes blazed with anger.
F*ck!
Were all of them sincerely going against him, trying to anger him to death?
No one answered. There was dead silence in the air.
Huo Ci frowned and walked over to lift the blanket. There was no way she was asleep. She was pretending to be dead. He gritted his teeth. âStop pretending. Get up!â
Ling Sheng had not expected that even though she had fallen asleep, her father was still unwilling to let her go. She tugged the blanket down and pretended to have just woken up. Her voice was hoarse as she said softly, âFather, Xiaoqi is here. He just took some fever-reducing medicine. Iâm making him sweat it out. If I leave now, the effect will be gone.â
Only then did Huo Ci see an additional small head under the blanket. He was sleeping soundly, and had not even woken up when he had shouted. His eyes were spitting fire as he pointed at her. âYouâre really promising. You used your son as a shield!â
He knew what she was up to. They would settle this sooner or later!
âFather, keep your voice down. Let me explain.â Ling Sheng hugged her son even tighter like an amulet.
âIâm not listening. Break up with him. Now! Immediately! Do you hear me?â Huo Ci was already irritated, so he lashed out at her. âBreak up immediately!â
Upon seeing that he was fuming from head to toe and his whole body was about to burn, Ling Sheng knew that it was definitely not because of her and the Third Master. Could it be that he had gotten angry at Auntie Yuâs place and wanted to vent his anger on her? She did not dare add fuel to the fire and replied, âOkay, I understand.â
It was impossible for them to really break up. She just had to smooth things over verbally. Her top priority now was to calm his irritable mood.
âCall him. Call him now!â Huo Ci watched from the side. âCall him and tell him that youâre breaking up with me immediately!â
Ling Sheng thought to herself, can I not make the call? However, when she saw her fatherâs murderous expression, she took out her phone obediently. âFather, my phone has powered off. I canât call him!â
âI think youâre the one who doesnât want to call him!â Huo Ci took out his phone instantly. âTell me the number, and Iâll call!â
This was what Ling Sheng wanted. If she used her fatherâs phone to call him, the Third Master would know what was going on. She read the number to him seriously.
Huo Ci cursed under his breath as he dialed the number. How dare that scumbag Old Jun fall in love? Letâs see how he could still date. He gave Ling Sheng his phone. âSpeak!â
When Jun Shiyan received Huo Ciâs call, his brows furrowed slightly. After the call connected, he said politely, âMr. Huo, may I ask...â
Ling Sheng did not say anything else. She followed her fatherâs instructions and got straight to the point. âBreak up. Letâs break up!â
