Chapter 242: I Want the Huo Family
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Huo You’s hands clenched into fists, her beautiful nails digging into the soft flesh on her palms.
She glared at Huo Feng. “Huo Feng, you still hate me because Huo Tian left the Huo Family, but what wrong did I do? I just want Huo Tian and me to return to our true destinies.”
“Hate you? You’re thinking too much, Sister.” Huo Feng leaned back in the rattan chair and looked indifferently at Huo You, who had anger written all over her face but didn’t dare to vent it at all. He pursed his lips dully.
“You’re just a pitiful person who wants to control your fate. Although pitiful people must have their hateful side, if I vent my hatred on you, won’t I become as pitiful and sad as you? I don’t want to end up in your state.”
This blatant contempt and mockery made Huo You feel even more unbearable. She stood up from the rattan chair and looked down at Huo Feng with anger-filled eyes. She said coldly, “Since you look down on me, your biological sister, so much, then go find your Sister Huo Tian. See if she takes you seriously.”
The faint smile on Huo Feng’s lips disappeared completely. He looked at Huo You coldly. “How dare you. You keep trying to use Huo Tian to anger me. Do you think you have nothing to fear because you’re about to get married and have He Yu as your backing?”
“Nothing to fear?” Huo You felt ridiculous when she heard Huo Feng’s description of her. As a marionette, she didn’t even dare to raise any objections or show any unwillingness toward an engagement banquet that she didn’t want at all. How could she be described as having nothing to fear?
Not sure if it was to mock herself or Huo Feng, Huo You smiled slightly and said, “I’m just a decorative piece that doesn’t deserve to have my own thoughts. I’m unworthy of the words ‘having nothing to fear’. My dear brother, it seems like you need to improve your Chinese results.”
Huo Feng shrugged and said indifferently, “Thank you for your concern, but my results aren’t bad. I only had two points deducted from my last Chinese examination. I shouldn’t be worse than you, Sister.”
Huo You stared at the indifferent Huo Feng for a long while and realized that no matter what she said, she couldn’t cause any harm to Huo Feng.
That was true. Huo Feng was a lunatic. Other than Huo Tian, he didn’t care about anyone else. What benefits could she get by going against such a lunatic?
Huo You turned around and was about to leave. Even if she couldn’t ease the frustration in her heart, she wanted to find a quiet space and stay alone for a while. However, Huo Feng wasn’t willing to let Huo You have her wish.
Just as Huo You was about to touch the greenhouse’s glass door, she heard Huo Feng’s calm voice coming from behind her. “Sister, you’re getting engaged to Mr. He. Aren’t you going to have a good chat with me before that?”
Huo You sneered. “I don’t think from your attitude just now, you were planning to have a good chat with me.”1
Huo Feng rested his chin on one hand and sighed. “It can’t be helped. Who asked Sister to use Sister Huo Tian to agitate me? I can’t help but want to mock you because of that.”
Huo You quietly regulated her breathing and sat back down on the rattan chair opposite Huo Feng. “What on earth do you want to tell me?”
“It seems like Sister, you’re unwilling to settle for getting married and having children peacefully, being a tool to maintain the Huo Family and He Yu’s cooperation.” Huo Feng looked up and said softly, “In that case, Sister, why don’t you consider my previous suggestion and collaborate with me? I’ll provide you with support and let you get what you want.”
Huo You’s breathing paused as she stared at Huo Feng.. “What if what I want is the Huo Family?”
