Huo Yunxiao couldn't describe the mix of emotions he was feeling - anger, frustration, humiliation, and even a bit of amusement. When Huo Yunchen entered the study, he felt the heavy atmosphere immediately.
Huo Yunxiao was sitting quietly at the desk, smoking in the dark. "Brother..." Huo Yunchen called out to him before turning on the lights.
Huo Yunxiao squinted his eyes, adjusting to the sudden brightness. "What's up?" he asked.
"Mom wants to see you. She wants you to come home," Huo Yunchen said in a low voice.
Huo Yunxiao didn't even lift his eyelids and replied, "I'm not going back. There's no need."
Huo Yunchen sighed, "Brother, I don't think sister-in-law meant to deceive you."
Huo Yunxiao's heart tightened in pain, but he didn't correct his brother's use of the term. He took a drag of his cigarette and said, "Was it unintentional? She had a whole year to spare ten minutes to explain things to me. Is she a killer from K Island?"
