Wherever the second young master of the Huo family goes, he is a true little sun.
He was likable from a young age. Compared to his older brother's maturity beyond his years, he had a carefree innocence and cheerfulness, and was always smiling.
It's said that people who smile a lot have good luck.
As soon as Huo Junyang walked in, Lu Ran's gaze was drawn to him, and she smiled at him.
Lu Lishan and Lin Yuqing rarely saw their daughter like this, so they exchanged a smile and quickly invited Huo Junyang to sit down.
"Take whatever you want to eat, don't be shy!" Lu Lishan patted his shoulder and laughed, "This kid has gotten even stronger lately!"
"Cough cough... Uncle Shan, I'm way past the age of growing up!"
Huo Junyang chuckled, picked up a piece of egg pancake and put it on his plate, then began to eat with gusto.
Lin Yuqing poured him some milk; she knew he preferred warm milk to hot milk.
Huo Junyang took it and said in a carefree manner, "Thank you, Aunt Yuqing!"
"Your family's dining table is always so lavish, with all sorts of dishes!"
“Your family isn’t doing badly either!” Lu Lishan chuckled, then lowered his voice mysteriously and asked, “What, are your parents not feeding you anymore?”
Huo Junyang's mouth was stuffed full, and he could only mumble a few words.
Lu Lishan and Lin Yuqing both laughed.
Even if he didn't say it, they both knew that the second young master couldn't eat anything else at home, but he could eat dog food to his heart's content.
"Forget it, forget it." At this moment, Lin Yuqing deliberately stabbed him in the back, "Both of your brothers were accidents caused by your parents! Look, your brother is smarter and more insightful than you, but now he's disappeared and hiding in Jiangzhou!"
"Cough cough..."
"If you cough again, we elders will still have to say something," Lu Lishan continued, adding insult to injury. "You're not young anymore, and you don't even have a proper girlfriend. No wonder your parents are always showing off their love and tormenting you, this single dog..."
Huo Junyang looked utterly hopeless, staring blankly at the two of them, with crumbs of egg pancake falling from the corner of his mouth.
"Don't say that about Brother Junyang..." A soft voice suddenly came.
The table fell silent instantly, and everyone turned to look at the source of the sound.
Lu Ran was a little shy. She lowered her head quietly and took small bites of the toast in her hand.
Lu Lishan and Lin Yuqing exchanged a glance and smiled knowingly. They looked at Huo Junyang and then at their daughter, as if they were seeing their younger selves.
Young people's feelings are always pure and beautiful. Although they initially wanted to matchmake their daughter with Huo Junyu, it now seems that the eldest son already has someone he loves, and this second son is no less than his brother.
Huo Junyang was also stunned for a moment. He looked up and met Lu Ran's bright eyes. His heart felt like it had been hit by something, and suddenly it started pounding violently.
"Little You, eat quickly." Lin Yuqing seized the opportunity, "After you finish eating, Brother Junyang will take you out for a walk!"
"Um... I don't really want to wander around here anymore," Lu Ran said timidly. "I want to go somewhere else."
Lu Lishan was a little excited when he heard this. His daughter had been back for so long and had never mentioned anything about it.
Today they actually said they were going to go somewhere else to play.
He quickly agreed, "Okay, okay! Yangyang, then I'll leave today to you..."
"Can you let me finish?" Lu Ran sat up straight and took a deep breath. "I, what I mean is, I want to go on a trip."
"travel?"
"Yes, I want to go to Jiangzhou."
Her voice was very soft, but the restaurant was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
She could also hear her own uneasy heartbeat.
Then, she looked at Huo Junyang and asked softly, "Brother Junyang... can you come with me?"

In the subtropical South Pacific, night always falls very late.
As dusk settled, Huo Junyu, who had been cooped up in his room all day and was on the verge of going crazy, rushed over as soon as he heard the click of the room key opening the door!
As soon as Jiang Mianmian opened the door, she was pulled into a warm embrace.
Huo Junyu pinned her against the wall, exuding a dangerous and alluring aura.
Do you know how long I've been waiting for you today?
His hoarse voice carried a hint of sorrow, which made Jiang Mianmian laugh.
"10 hours, 32 minutes, and 56 seconds!"
"So precise?"
"Of course." Huo Junyu lifted her chin. "Shouldn't you give me some compensation?"
As he spoke, his lips slowly approached hers, but just as they were about to kiss, the woman suddenly blocked his lips with a finger.
"I'll make it up to you!" Jiang Mianmian smiled mysteriously, "I'll take you to see the fireflies!"
"Um?"
"It's the place we talked about yesterday!"
Huo Junyu was stunned. The place they talked about yesterday... she could go in?
Jiang Mianmian hooked her little arms around his neck and whispered excitedly in his ear, "My classmate told me today that although that place is a private garden, there's a path that leads into the rainforest if you go around from the back!"
"Wh...what?" Huo Junyu's lips twitched, quite surprised.
Jiang Mianmian mistook his reaction for excitement and smiled smugly at him: "How about it? My strategy was pretty good, wasn't it? Actually, I was a little skeptical when my classmates said that at first, but then I checked online and a lot of people said the same thing..."
Look at this!
Jiang Mianmian pulled out a sketch she had drawn herself from her bag.
“This is a drawing I made based on descriptions from people online. It’s roughly like this…” She gestured with her little hand on the drawing. “Let’s start from here and then walk to this place… This area is the Sabah rainforest, where the world’s only two-winged fireflies are located!”
