Uncle's statement

  At dinner time, the seat next to me where Huo Xiaoqian should be was empty. I glanced over and lowered my head, thinking about what Yun Li said in my mind. The dinner table without Huo Xiaoqian seemed unusually quiet, the only thing that remained unchanged was Uncle Huo Ning'en constantly smiling and serving dishes to my aunt.

  Honing's side An wall black with a slightly more red eyes, staring, but never speak, I began to suspect that An wall is a mute?

  I put down the bowl, I really couldn't stay any longer, went back to my room. Wang's wife asked during the day if she should tidy up my room for me, I said no need, because that eye-catching red on the bed sheet can't be known by anyone in this family!

  I took off the bed sheet and asked the maid to bring a new one. I threw the used one into the bathroom and washed it myself, swallowing my saliva constantly. My tears fell down, my purity was gone just like that last night, and who that man was, I didn't even know!

  Wiping away tears on my face with a strong will, I told myself in my heart that I couldn't cry and shouldn't cry. This debt would be settled sooner or later!

  "Grandma, are you there?"

  It's Wang's wife calling me. I looked at the time, it was already 9 o'clock in the evening. What does she want from me at this hour? Is it that my mother-in-law wants to scold me again?

  Dropped the sheet in his hand, wiped himself off, and opened the door: "Anything?"

  The woman looked at me with a puzzled expression, I knew why, my eyes were a bit red and swollen. I smiled awkwardly, then she said: "Mr. Huo is looking for you, please go to the living room."

  I nodded, and as usual, Wang Shu led the way. I was no longer surprised by the luxury of this house. This is the Huo family, after all. Seeing something extraordinary wasn't a big deal!

  "Come on, little brother! Come sit down!" Uncle Haining still had a warm smile on his face, not only inviting me to sit down but also personally pouring water for me and handing it over. I was a bit surprised, after all, the only person in the Huo family who seemed to have a kind face towards me was him.

  I stood up and said softly: "Uncle, is there something you want me for?"

  "Don't be nervous!" He patted my shoulder and motioned for me to sit down and speak slowly, I nodded and obediently sat down, only I knew how tightly the hand holding the cup was clenched.

  "Come on, little brother! It's normal that you're not used to our home yet. I'm also considered your elder, and this Huo family... now that it's mentioned, it's all up to me to hold it together!"

  As I listened to his words, my heart was secretly muttering, this speech sounds just like the lecture that Little Mama gave me in the daytime. The only difference is that Little Mama's icy and tough attitude and his gentle tone are really worlds apart.

  I didn't dare look at him, kept staring at the cup in my hand, nodded slightly, but there was one thing I couldn't quite understand - what exactly had happened to this family? And how did I, a woman who married a deceased person, feel like I was trapped in a whirlpool?

  He patted my shoulder again and said, "I heard Yun Li has been looking for you. But I still want to tell you that a person must have brains to be called human. Some things, you should understand first. I won't say much here, just remember, this family is surnamed Ho!"

  From head to toe, I didn't make a sound, even when my uncle told me to go back to my room. I was still in a daze, and Yun Li repeatedly warned me that she's the one who calls the shots in this house. At night, my uncle came again to remind me that after all, this is the Ho family! Suddenly, I felt like I had unknowingly stepped onto a thin steel wire...
