Chapter 22: Who Did This?
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“How could you tell that I’m unhappy?”
Ye Sang titled her small head to the side and hesitated for a few seconds as she wanted to hold her brother’s hand. But Huo Chenyu suddenly took a step back and looked at her in awe.
She realized and saw the boy’s slightly disgusted and resisting expression, and the little thing pouted and took her hands back, feeling wronged.
“Sangsang just knows…” Ye Sang stared softly at Huo Chenyu, the way she tilted her head to the side made her look like she was a puppy waiting to be fed.
She had always been sensitive to human emotions.
Brodda was… obviously unhappy.
But-
The little thing didn’t know how to say these things out loud.
Huo Chenyu masked the mockery in his eyes and pulled an almost-perfect smile on his face.
He lowered his voice at her, “If you’ve cried enough, let’s go eat…”
The young boy didn’t even bother to give her a second glance as he walked downstairs towards the dining table.
“Brodda…” This time, the little thing learned from the lesson and pouted in grievance without trying to hold her brother’s hand.
Her eyes were red, and because she was afraid that her Grandpa would see that she cried, she obediently lowered her head and violently dug into her food.
She was so sensible that it made him feel bad for no reason.
Huo Chenyu only glanced at her once before looking down.
He was scared that he was going to become soft-hearted if he continued to look at her.
The young boy couldn’t help but let his thoughts run wild with his head lowered.
Huo Yao was such a smart man but his daughter was so stupid.
She was a total idiot and she would only be bullied if she was born outside the Huo family.
“Sangsang, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you looking up?” Old Master Huo, who sat at the head of the table, frowned as he was the first to notice something strange.
The little thing loved to act like a spoiled child and she should be throwing herself at him for hugs.
How could she possibly sit so obediently and eat like this?
The little thing subconsciously hid her hands behind her back and blinked her dark eyes, and her eyes reddened as tears dropped down into her small bowl.
She looked at her tiny hands.
Because she was holding the spoon, she didn’t get time to clean the wound on her palm and it was burning painfully.
The little ball who was always afraid of pain forced her tears back and stopped herself from wailing.
She was scared that her brother would be in trouble if her grandpa noticed.
However, Old Master Huo obviously already realized something.
His face suddenly grew cold and he picked up the little thing from the stool into his arms.
Seeing that she was trying to hide her hands, Grandpa Huo quickly grabbed the little girl’s wrist. He saw her red and swollen palm and his eyes became cold. Gloomy and dark weren’t enough to describe how bad his expressions looked like.
“Who did this?” Old Master Huo lowered his voice but he was furious.
He wanted to put her in his hands to protect his dear granddaughter, how could they torture her like this after a mere few days?
When he’s gone in the future, and with that brat Huo Yao’s cold personality, wouldn’t they bully his baby granddaughter every day?
All the maids instantly kept quiet out of fear.
The little thing quickly ran into Old Master Huo’s arms and rubbed the tears hanging from her lashes. She tilted her head up slightly and tried to comfort her grandpa like an adult, “Grandpa, don’t be angry.”
“Sangsang accidentally fell down, it has nothing to do with them…”
