Su Wanwan turned around to look.
“Pfft—”
She quickly covered her mouth.
“Zhexi, what’s going on?” Madam Huo received a considerable shock.
Huo Zhexi was lying on the floor, completely drenched as if he had just been fished out of the water. His flowered shirt was wet and clinging to his body, his clothes, pants, and shoes were covered in dust and grass clippings, his handsome face was drained of all color, his lips were pale…
And the most exaggerated part was his once flamboyantly middle-parted hairstyle. Because of the sweat, it was split into two sections drooping on either side of his forehead, just like the hairstyles of traitors in World War II TV series…
With his eyes flared red, he gasped for air and weakly roared: “You damn girl, you… you’ll… you’ll pay for this!”
Madam Huo turned to Su Wanwan, “What happened?”
Su Wanwan blinked her eyes and said, “He said he wanted to do some physical exercise, so he let me drive the car.”
“Uh…” Madam Huo made a strange expression, “So, Zhexi, you walked back?”
Huo Zhexi was still panting heavily. He had walked for over two hours under high temperatures without drinking any water. He was both tired and thirsty, his throat parched to the point of smoking, even talking was painful.
“Where did you walk back from?” Madam Huo continued to question.
Lying there, Huo Zhexi finally managed to utter a single word after a long while, “…Water.”
The servant quickly went into the kitchen to fetch water.
Su Wanwan coughed twice and kindly said, “I think… it should be… the Sixth Ring.”
“The Sixth Ring!” Madam Huo exclaimed.
Huo Zhexi was so furious that his eyes rolled back.
To think that as the third young master of the illustrious Huo family, born and raised with a silver spoon, he had lived a life of comfort and luxury. When had he ever been subjected to such hardship?
When the sports car was taken away by Su Wenwen, he didn’t have anything on him, not a penny and no mobile phone. He wanted to hitch a ride back but despite trying for an hour on the highway, not a single car was willing to stop for him.
Once he finally reached the city, he wanted to borrow a phone to call someone to pick him up, but again, no one was willing to lend him their phone. Men, women, the elderly, and children would evade him by a great distance as if he were some plague.
He was utterly bemused. Madam Huo was of mixed blood, and the Huo family was famous for their good looks. Was his appearance really that terrifying?
“What happened?” Huo Senior’s voice suddenly echoed.
Upon seeing his grandson in such a pitiful state, he was even more furious, “What have you been up to, you miscreant!”
Madam Huo explained, “Zhexi was working out.”
“Insane!” Huo Senior turned around, “Get the meal ready.”
“Let’s eat, let’s eat.” Madam Huo quickly started bustle about.

Half an hour later, in the dining room.
“Wanwan, eat more chicken, this is a free-range chicken specially bought by Wen Xiu.”
“And this pork hock, eat more, it provides collagen.”
“Ashen, help your wife get some food.”
As soon as Huo Zhexi, who had just finished his shower, walked into the dining room, he heard Madam Huo’s enthusiastic greeting.
He pursed his lips, found a spot to sit down, picked up his bowl, and began to scoop some soup.
“Smack!”
Madam Huo hit his soup spoon with her chopsticks, “This was specially prepared for your elder brother, you go eat tofu soup.”
“Grandma, there’s still a big bowl of it! Can’t I have just a small bowl?” Huo Zhexi was on the verge of tears.
He had suffered so much, was it too much to ask for just a small bowl of meat soup?
Madam Huo clicked her tongue, “You don’t even have a girlfriend, what do you want to do with so much bullwhip soup?”
“Cough, cough, cough.” Su Wenwen choked.
Bullwhip soup?
No wonder Madam Huo kept telling Huo Jingshen to drink more…
As for Huo Jingshen.
He raised his eyebrows, looking at the spoon in his hand, unsure whether to continue drinking?
Or…
Continue drinking?
“Cough!”
Huo Senior coughed loud and clear.
As a warning.
Who expected Madam Huo to look at him, “Old man, do you want to drink bullwhip soup too?”
“Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough!” Huo Senior was choked and coughed even louder..
