040 Her Boy

Huo Zidu was so frightened that his legs trembled and he almost cried out, "I will be good, Uncle, please don't send me back to the United States."

He was only 12 years old, and he was already considered tall among his peers.

But compared to those tall and strong kids his age in the US, he looked like a little chick.

They bullied him, forcing him to drink toilet water and making him kneel down to eat their leftovers.

He didn't want to live such a humiliating life anymore.

Huo Yanxi stared at him for a while with a stern face, then waved his hand, "Go out, don't disappoint me again."

"I see."

Huo Zidu left the study and stood in the empty corridor, wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

suddenly.

He heard children laughing and joking downstairs, so he walked to the railing and looked down.

On the living room carpet, the child that Teacher Xie brought was playing with a bean bun.

Doubao placed its two front paws on his round belly, as if it wanted to get close to him.

He laughed heartily, "Doubao, you can't kiss, we're both men, Doubao, this isn't allowed."

Before Huo Zidu was sent to the United States, he had actually seen this dog. It was skinny and its fur had been burned off.

He wondered why his uncle would bring home a stray dog ​​that was about to die. He looked down on his uncle and even more so on the dog.

then.

When his uncle wasn't looking, he took the dog out, put it on a leash, and made it chase after his children's supercar.

He didn't know that the dog was so fragile; it soon stuck out its tongue and was dragged for several kilometers by his children's supercar.

Later, when my uncle came home from get off work, the dog was gone, and he searched for it frantically.

He was so frightened that he dared not utter a sound.

Because he saw that the dog was having too much fun, he just left it by the roadside and drove home in his children's supercar.

Now that he sees his uncle acting crazy, he's even less likely to admit what he did to that dog.

Later, when my uncle wanted to check the surveillance footage, my grandparents desperately stopped him, fearing he would find out that he had abused their dog.

Later, his mother, fearing that he would be implicated, took the initiative to admit her mistake, saying that she had thrown the dog away because she thought it was ugly.

That day, my uncle almost strangled my mother to death.

Ignoring his grandparents' attempts to stop him, he rushed out and kicked and punched his uncle, saying, "It's just a dog, it's dead, so what? You're not allowed to bully my mommy!"

At that time, his uncle looked at him with an extremely terrifying gaze, as if he wanted to kill him.

He grabbed him by the back of his collar, dragged him out, and made him take him to find the dog.

The whole family tried to stop him, but no one could stop the uncle. The uncle tied a rope around his wrist and dragged him for several kilometers in his car.

He didn't stop until he found the dog.

However, he was later punished. The first thing his uncle did after taking power was to send him to the United States.

Nearly five years have passed, and the dog has been well-cared for by the uncle, looking sleek and healthy, even better than he, the real heir of the Huo family.

He snorted and went down the spiral staircase.

Huo Zidu stood by the sofa, looking down at Xie Ziyu, "As expected, a lowly commoner and a lowly dog, a perfect match!"

Doubao smelled the scent of its enemy and barked fiercely at Huo Zidu with great pride.

Xie Ziyu rolled over and got up from the carpet, then hugged Doubao and stroked its fur.

"Doubao, be quiet, Doubao, be quiet."

Doubao's eyes were bloodshot, and it barked even louder, "Woof woof woof, woof woof woof..."

Huo Zidu's lips curled into a wicked smile. "Looks like you still remember me. It's all your fault for sending me abroad for five years. We'll see how things go."

"Woof woof woof woof..."

Doubao barked wildly as it backed away, clearly afraid of Huo Zidu.

Xie Ziyu noticed this and stretched out his arms to block Doubao, adopting a protective stance.

"You dare to bully Doubao? You'll have to step over my dead body first."

Huo Zidu was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, "How can you be so stupid? Killing someone is illegal, but killing a dog is not necessarily illegal."

Xie Ziyu glared at him, "You dare!"

Huo Zidu was smug and arrogant. "Why wouldn't I dare? If it hadn't been lucky back then, I would have killed it long ago."

Xie Ziyu could sense the malice emanating from this person; he was taller and definitely stronger.

If he really wanted to bully Doubao, he might not be a match for him.

But he absolutely mustn't let him touch the steamed bun.

what to do?

He was the young master of the Huo family and Old Deng's nephew. On the first day they met, he cursed at his mother, but Old Deng turned a blind eye, which shows that he was somewhat indulgent towards him.

What if he really kills Doubao?

"Woof woof woof woof..."

Xie Ziyu turned around, grabbed the dog, and ran away, saying, "With me here, I won't let you hurt Doubao."

He ran back to his room with the steamed bun in his arms, locked the door from the inside, and only then did he feel safe.

Xie Yaoyao is preparing her lesson.

She had heard a dog barking and wanted to go out to check, but when she saw Xie Ziyu rushing in carrying Doubao, she got up and went over, only to find that Doubao was trembling.

She squatted down and checked Doubao from head to toe. Finding that he was neither injured nor sick, she was relieved.

"Yubao, why is Doubao yelling so loudly?"

Xie Ziyu pointed towards the door and said, "Mommy, it's that little pervert upstairs. He said he's going to kill Doubao."

Xie Yaoyao was startled, but remembering that Huo Zidu was indeed very rebellious, she did not doubt that Xie Ziyu was lying.

She understands her child; he wouldn't lie to slander someone just because he dislikes them.

"Yubao, you have to protect Doubao well, and don't let it get hurt."

Feeling trusted by her, Xie Ziyu felt a sense of responsibility and nodded firmly, "Mommy, I will protect Doubao."

"Sweetie, you and Doubao can play in the suite. I'm going to talk to President Huo."

If Huo Zidu really intended to harm Doubao, she had to give Huo Yanxi a heads-up beforehand.

Outside the study on the second floor, Xie Yaoyao hesitated for a moment before knocking on the door.

"Enter."

A short, cold voice came from the study, and Xie Yaoyao pushed open the door.

"Mr. Huo, do you have a moment now? I'd like to talk to you about Huo Zidu."

Xie Yaoyao stood by the door, looking at the man sitting behind the desk. He wore gold-rimmed glasses, which added to his refined and ascetic scholarly air.

Behind his glasses, Huo Yanxi's gaze sharpened slightly. "Sit for two minutes, I need to have a meeting."

Xie Yaoyao originally wanted to say that he was busy, so she wouldn't go in and disturb him.

But the man had already lowered his eyes to look at the computer screen, the light flickering on his glasses, and French words occasionally came from the computer.

Xie Yaoyao walked into the study, closed the door behind her, and sat down on the sofa.

The study is large and decorated in a very modern style, with a serious yet warm atmosphere.

The bookshelves embedded in the wall are filled with books, all in original languages ​​from various countries.

She didn't wander off aimlessly; she heard Huo Yanxi's voice in her ear.

He spoke French with perfect pronunciation and the elegant intonation of a native Frenchman.

Xie Yaoyao's gaze involuntarily fell back on him. Sunlight streamed in through the French windows, and he sat in a halo of light.

Her boy finally stood at the top of the world, no longer held back by anyone, so why did he always make her feel unhappy?
