Chapter 65: True Colors
Although she didn’t know what the story between Huo Feng and Si Huan was, Huo You immediately realized that this was a chance. It was a chance to get closer with Huo Feng and even reach a cooperation agreement.
Her eyes darted around, then she probed, “You don’t like Si Huan either? Has he offended you in the past?”
“Has anyone told you that you can’t be too obvious when you want to scheme against others?” Huo Feng sneered. “What are you trying to do by actively inquiring about the matters between Si Huan and me?”
“I just feel that we have something in common. We might be able to work together in the future.”
Huo You took a step forward and got even closer to Huo Feng.
At this moment, a car stopped beside Huo Feng. The backseat window rolled down slowly, revealing Mrs. Huo’s beautiful face.
A kind smile that Huo You had never seen before appeared on her face. “Little Feng, why are you here? The driver went to the airport to pick you up but didn’t manage to.”
Huo Feng bent down slightly and let Mrs. Huo reach out to touch his face. Mrs. Huo caressed his face a few times before her hand was held by Huo Feng.
He also revealed a smile that was no different from the other Huo Family members. “Mom, I’m back.”
“It’s good that you’re back. Little Feng, come home with Mom. It’s not too late to go to school after resting for a few days.”
Huo You felt a chill run down her spine when she saw the almost identical smile on the mother and son’s faces.
Mrs. Huo’s gaze turned to Huo You, who was standing blankly a few steps away from Huo Feng. She frowned slightly. “Youyou, Qingli High School’s first lesson is almost over. Why are you still here?”
“Mom, I…”
Huo You subconsciously glanced at Huo Feng and met his expression that was with a shadow of a smile.
She had wanted to say that she saw Huo Feng and wanted to have a good chat with him, but she was afraid that Huo Feng wouldn’t give her any face. She didn’t know how to answer Mrs. Huo’s question.
After a while, it was Huo Feng who spoke up, breaking the suffocating silence. “Mom, I saw Sister Huo You for the first time today and chatted with her for a while. I held her back from her class, but since the first lesson is about to end, she might as well not attend it. Sister Huo You just said that she wanted to inform Dad and Mom to come home for lunch.”
Although she didn’t understand why Huo Feng was helping her out, Huo You heaved a sigh of relief.
However, the moment she saw Mrs. Huo’s expression clearly, she became even more agitated.
Her face didn’t show the joy of seeing the siblings getting along well. Instead, it was filled with coldness. “Huo You, you’re not in charge of the Huo Family yet. Do you think you’re qualified to help your father and I arrange our itinerary?”
Huo You’s face turned pale. She subconsciously looked at Huo Feng, but all she met was his mocking gaze.
After they returned to the Huo Family, Mrs. Huo held Huo Feng’s hand and asked him about his well-being. Huo You sat by the side like a quiet accessory.
When Mrs. Huo was finally satisfied with her questions, she went off to make arrangements for the dishes Huo Feng liked to be prepared. Only Huo Feng and Huo You were left in the small living room.
When no one was around, Huo You held Huo Feng, who was about to return to the room, back and asked him with a livid expression, “Huo Feng, I’ve never offended you in the past. Why do you have to go against me?”
“You didn’t offend me? Wasn’t my sister chased away because of you?” Huo Feng sneered. “Besides, I’m not deliberately going against you. Dear Sister Huo You, I’m just showing you the real way the Huo Family interacts. You should get used to it sooner.”
“It’s because of Huo Tian again! I knew you were targeting me for her.” Huo You finally couldn’t maintain her composure anymore. She gritted her teeth, her expression looking a little distorted.
“Huo Feng, you still haven’t accepted the change in mine and Huo Tian’s identities? I’m your biological sister, yet you’re treating me like this because of that imposter?!”
“Of course I know you’re my biological sister. After all, only the Huo Family can give birth to someone as hypocritical as you!” Huo Feng sneered. “Do you think I detest you because you stole my sister’s position?”
Huo You frowned. “Isn’t that the case?”
“Haha, I knew that someone like you wouldn’t understand. You’re a member of the Huo Family through and through!”
Huo Feng’s gaze turned cold and malicious. “You don’t know how much I hate being surrounded by the cold-blooded and selfish Huo Family. My sister is the only living soul in the Huo Family, but you chased her away from my side…”
Huo Feng said as he walked closer to Huo You. Huo You’s heart constricted under his crazy gaze, and her legs trembled as she retreated step by step.
“I tried my best to think of ways to make my sister stay in the Huo Family. I knew she was unhappy in the Huo Family and can only release her suppressed emotions through acting rebellious. I want my sister to be happy, but I want her to stay in the Huo Family to accompany me even more…”
