Hearing his daughter's question, Huo's father restrained his smile, and after a long silence, he said, "Your third brother was kidnapped when he was twelve years old."
It was also because of that kidnapping that he became what he is now.
"Kidnapping?" Huo Yao was taken aback. He had guessed this possibility before, but he didn't expect it to be true.
"Well, we didn't live here at the time. For some reason, your third brother was kidnapped. When he was found later, he... was left with only one breath."
A twelve-year-old boy was imprisoned and tortured for three full days by a group of vicious people.
For Huo Yulin, who was still a child, every minute and every second was the pain and despair carved into his soul.
Although he was rescued in the end, since then, that sunny and lovely child has ceased to exist.
Papa Huo's voice was very deep, even slightly trembling, he didn't tell the detailed process.
Some things will involve a lot of things once they are said, not to mention that they don't want their daughter to know the past of the Huo family.
The atmosphere in the car was a bit stagnant. Huo Yao looked at his father who had obviously turned into another person, so he didn't ask any further questions.
No matter who said the kidnapping case, it is a bloody memory.
After a while, Huo Yao said softly: "It's all over, and the third brother will get better."
"Yeah." Papa Huo turned his head away from the car window, and slowly put down the things that came up.
On the way, the father and daughter didn't speak any more, and they were quiet.
Not long after, the car drove back to the community.
An ordinary car was parked outside the villa, and it seemed that the guests had already arrived.
Huo Yao got out of the car, went in, and changed into his slippers.
In the living room, the guests were sitting on the sofa with their backs facing each other. When Huo Yao approached, he was still a little surprised when he saw the person.
"Here, this is my daughter, Yaoyao." Song Ning introduced to his friend.
Huo Yao nodded politely, "Hello, Auntie." Then she nodded to the young woman beside her.
This young woman is none other than Fang Ting whom she met on a blind date.
It was also the object that her own mother wanted to give to Brother Gou.
Mrs. Fang looked at Huo Yao with a smile, her expression was soft, "The little girl is so beautiful."
Song Ning raised her eyebrows, "That's right, my daughter will follow me."
Fang Ting next to her kept a ladylike smile, sitting beside her mother, and seldom spoke. Seeing Huo Yao at this time, her brows and eyes lit up.
Pretty little sister.
But the eyebrows and eyes look a little familiar, as if I've seen them somewhere.
Song Ning asked her daughter to chat with Fang Ting, so Huo Yao could only put down the bag in his hand, walked over, and sat down next to Fang Ting.
"Sister, are we..."
Before Fang Ting finished speaking, Huo Yao cut him off, "We haven't met!"
Huo Yao's expression was serious, and Fang Ting stuck back without finishing his sentence, "... Oh, maybe I misremembered."
"En." Huo Yao nodded.
You can't let the other party know that during the last blind date, the other party complained about Neptune's sister.
Fang Ting scratched her head, although she always felt that something was wrong, she didn't ask too many questions, after all, she was just a loafer who came to dinner with her mother.
Not long after, Huo Tingrui's car also drove back to the villa. As soon as he entered the door, when he saw the person sitting on the sofa, the expression on his whole face froze.
