"Don't you know?"
"Do I look like a know-it-all? I only knew about the engagement when I arrived at the venue last time!"
"Oh well . I'm invincible regardless . Your mom can't do anything to me . "
If it was not to annoy the hell out of Huo Zhenning, he would never go back .
"O-okay, time to work . "
Lu was in deep fear that the devil would make more harsh remarks regarding her mother . She jumped off him at that instant and ready to run .
"Oh, you are already excited to spy it for me? My sister knows me best," said Huo as he lit up a cigarette in his hand .
The faint scent of tobacco wafted through the air, as it combusted his last bit of serenity . Before the columns of smoke filled the office, he rubbed the embers onto the plate . He got up to pick his coat and walked out of the office .
What exactly happened?
Lu thought . She grew more confused as she gave more thought to it .
If it has something to do with mommy, she would have called me right away .
But what am I thinking?
She froze for a minute and promptly collected her thoughts .
Get to work, get to work .
She took a few folders and put them into a stack while booting up her desktop . Lin Yazhi was giggling nearby . Lu took a quick peek before getting back to her Excel worksheet . Strangely enough, her instinct led her hand to launch Edge and search the news .
She saw an announcement made by Lin Jingzhi in the latest Weibo news .

"ONLY FRIENDS" - LIN .
The title showed .
The netizens might not buy that but Lu certainly would, since Mo Shan was all over Huo Yunting after all .
(Meanwhile at Huo's Home)
*Pant*
*Pant pant*
*Cough*
"UGH!" Huo Zhenning tightly gripped the leather handles of the sofa, still having difficulty in breathing due to the burning rage in him . His enlarged eyes scowled upon the cracked screen of his smartphone on the floor a few steps away . The edge of the phone was already dented . It was the work of Huo Zhenning's anger when Huo hung up on him .

Madam Xue picked up the phone and sat beside him, with her hand gently patting her back, "It's alright, honey . Be calm . "
"HOW can I be CALM? This is far more important than my birthday! What's the point if he doesn't get home?" He slammed his thigh hard as if slapping his son .
"Honey, forgive Yunting . It must be because he does not know what truly happened here . "
Madam Xue knew . She knew the whole point of Yunting's debut at the birthday dinner last time . All he wanted was to humiliate them .
And she actually hesitated of calling him back this time . No one knew what crazy things this beast could do after all .
But she wholeheartedly wanted to reconcile with him . It was just that Yunting never gave her the chance .
"Do you think I could tell him now? It's a secret for a reason!" Howled Huo .

The spacious manor was occupied by the few maids cleaning up at the corners, seemingly to relive the manor .
"Let's call him again, shall we?" Said Madam Xue as she passed him her phone, "It's alright, honey . He's your son after all . We are still a family no matter what tantrum he threw . "
"He might be a son to me, but it doesn't mean he would recognize me as his father . Oh, why do I even bother to raise him years back?" He snatched the phone away from Madam Xue . His gripping hand shook horrendously as he panted for a few more times before dialing Yunting .
A few minutes lapsed, "Sorry, the number you've di"
The phone was flung aginst the wall, making a loud slam, before it fell onto the ground with the screen shattered .
The maids held her breath as their actions grew cautious .
"Honey!" Madam Xue was starting to feel agitated too, "How about I make a call to Yang and let her try talking to Yunting? She's still his sister after all . " She then gestured the maid to bring a landline to them .
Huo Zhenning gargled the green tea and crashed it onto the table with his eyes rolling in wrath .
This disgraceful child! If it wasn't what happened this time, why the hell would I even call him back?Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
