Mrs. Huo's head buzzed and instantly went blank. Her body swayed, and if Father Huo hadn't helped her in time, she would have fallen to the ground.
Her face was pale, and she looked at Huo Qu in disbelief, her lips trembling: "San'er, what do you mean? What does this mean?!"
Huo Qu was different from ordinary children since he was young, so among her three sons, Mrs. Huo loved him the most. In Huo Qu's life, she had never said a harsh word to him, let alone hit him.
But today, she changed her usual gentleness and stared at Huo Qu aggressively, asking, "Explain it to me clearly!"
Huo Qu didn't understand why she suddenly got angry. He looked at Mrs. Huo blankly and repeated obediently, "I like Qing Huan and want to be with him forever."
Whenever Huo Qu thought of Yu Qinghuan, his heart felt as if it were soaked in honey, sweet and soft. He shyly revealed the round dimple on his left cheek and added in a low voice, "I think Qinghuan will be able to see me as soon as she gets home."
"Shut up!" Mrs. Huo's tears fell down. She whimpered in collapse and suddenly rushed to Huo Qu, raised her hand and hit him, "You are not allowed to go anywhere! Just stay at home! Do you hear me!"
"mom!"
“Miaomiao!”
Neither Huo's father nor Huo Rong had expected that she would actually attack Huo Qu. They were stunned for a moment and then quickly pulled her away.
"What are you doing?" Father Huo hugged her tightly to prevent her from going crazy again, and whispered in her ear: "Calm down, don't scare San'er, let's go back to the house and talk."
"I won't go back!" Mrs. Huo looked at Huo Qu with tears in her eyes. She kept sobbing and couldn't accept this fact at all. "How could this happen! How could this happen! San'er must have made a mistake!"
Her youngest son, because he was different from ordinary people since childhood, suffered a lot of suffering and ridicule, and grew up alone until he was in his twenties.
Now, things are finally showing signs of improvement. Not only have I learned to care about others, but I have also made friends of my own. However, just when she was becoming more and more relieved and thought that he would become normal one day, a bolt from the blue instantly woke her up from her sweet dream.
Huo Qu actually told her that he fell in love with a man! How could she accept this!
That is a more difficult road, and if you really take it, you will suffer a thousand times more harm than before. The flesh that fell from Huo Qu's belly was the son she raised herself. How could she bear to watch him go astray!
Mrs. Huo regained her senses a little. She pushed away Huo's father and walked to Huo Qu. Just as she was about to speak, a hand with long fingers and distinct joints was stretched out in front of her.
"Mom, don't cry." Huo Qu carefully wiped the tears from her face, with a hint of panic in his beautiful black eyes, "Did I make you angry? I'm sorry."
His hair was messy and there were red marks on his face from being scratched by fingernails. He looked extremely disheveled. But he didn't pay any attention to his own situation at all, and only awkwardly comforted his mother, "Don't cry."
This was the first time Huo Qu reacted to his family's emotions and responded. Mrs. Huo's heart felt sour, bitter, and sweet all at once. For a moment, it was as if a bottle of five flavors had been overturned, and it was extremely complicated.
Tears kept falling down her face as she touched the wound on her little son's face with regret. She threw all the anger and shock behind her and was left with only heartache for her son.
"Mom is fine, don't worry, San'er. Does your face hurt?"
Huo Qu nodded honestly, "It hurts."
"It's mom's fault. I shouldn't have hit you," Mrs. Huo blamed herself so much that she choked and wished she could break off the finger that had hurt Huo Qu.
Seeing that his wife's emotions had finally calmed down, Huo's father on the side winked at Huo Rong and said, "Waiter, take San'er to the living room to apply medicine."
Huo Rong nodded in understanding and pulled Huo Qu out of the room.
After sending the two brothers away, Father Huo turned to Mrs. Huo and said disapprovingly: "Miao Miao, you scared San'er."
"Old Huo," Mrs. Huo tightly grasped Father Huo's wrist, as if this would give her the strength to continue holding on, "What should we do with our San'er in the future? Why, why did he fall in love with Yu Qinghuan!"
She murmured in disbelief: "How could two boys be like this?"
Mr. Huo's face was tense. He was silent for a long time before he sighed heavily. "I don't know." He paused and held Mrs. Huo's hand. "But to be honest, I'm not as opposed to it as you are."
"Why?" Mrs. Huo's eyes widened, she suddenly broke free from his hand and asked him sharply, "Do you think it's good for your son to be a homosexual? Do you know how many people will laugh at and abuse him in the future?"
"Miaomiao, don't get excited." Father Huo closed the door tightly and continued, "I don't know what Yu Qinghuan thinks, but if the two of them can really walk together for a lifetime, it's actually not bad."
"I never dared to think that one day San'er would have friends and a lover." With a complicated expression, he rubbed his trouser pocket, where the gloves Huo Qu gave him were placed. "But since Yu Qinghuan appeared, San'er has changed. I am really happy to think that San'er will no longer be alone in the future."
"Didn't you notice, Miaomiao?" Father Huo reached out and tucked Mrs. Huo's tear-soaked hair behind her ears, sighing, "San'er treated Yu Qinghuan differently from the beginning."
From the first time they met until now, every change in his little son was because of Yu Qinghuan. Even though he felt frustrated, he had to admit that Yu Qinghuan was unique in Huo Qu's heart.
"I don't want my son to be labeled a homosexual," Mrs. Huo rested her forehead on his shoulder and said sullenly, "Old Huo, I'm scared. But..." She pursed her lips, "I can't bear to stop him from seeing Yu Qinghuan."
"Let it be," Father Huo patted her shoulder, "As parents, we all want the best for our children. I would rather he be laughed at than walk alone in this world."
At this point, Father Huo snorted, "Besides, who dares to laugh at my son Huo Yi?!"
"Stop flattering yourself!" Mrs. Huo wiped the corners of her red eyes and felt a lot more relieved. Although she still couldn't accept it in the short term, at least she didn't react as strongly as before.
"You said, should I go talk to Yu Qinghuan?"
"You are not allowed to go!" Father Huo frowned, his face suddenly became stern, "I know you love your son, but you can't use this to threaten Yu Qinghuan. No one stipulates that if San'er likes Yu Qinghuan, others must like him!"
"But……"
"Miao Miao, listen to me," Father Huo stretched out his hand and hugged her into his arms, his eyes full of pity, "We can't bully other people's sons just because of our own son. San'er has us to support him, but Yu Qinghuan, his parents are long gone. Let the children solve their own problems."
Mrs. Huo was silent for a long time before she responded, "Yes."
When Huo Rong brought Huo Qu back again, Mrs. Huo had already calmed down. Although she hasn't figured it out yet, she has begun to try to accept it.
However, she still did not agree with Huo Qu's request to move all his things away. On the grounds that Yu Qinghuan was about to move, he was only allowed to take away his commonly used clothes and belongings.
This was the first time Huo Qu lived alone in Yu Qinghuan's house when Yu Qinghuan was not around. He sat quietly on the sofa, covering his chest with some discomfort.
His mother suddenly started crying sadly after he said that he liked Qinghuan. Why is this happening? He sniffed and stared at the floor blankly. Qinghuan was so nice and he liked him, so why was his mother unhappy? I clearly want their blessings and envy.
He subconsciously touched the watch on his wrist, picked up the phone with grievance, entered Yu Qinghuan's number and called.
At that time, Yu Qinghuan had just finished a day of filming and was so tired that she could hardly straighten her back.
In his two lifetimes combined, he had never done so much farm work. Even though he has good physical strength, he can't bear it now.
He sat on the kang to rest for a while, and was about to go downstairs to drink some water when Zhao Qingyuan pushed the door open and came in with an unhappy look on his face.
"I just called Uncle Liu. He was the one who arranged for Wang Chengcheng to participate in this show! In order to promote the movie, he deliberately put me and Wang Chengcheng on the same variety show. I was wondering how could there be such a coincidence!"
He hammered the edge of the kang angrily. "They were afraid that I wouldn't go, so they deliberately didn't let the production team tell me the guest list in advance! They are so cunning!"
“Stop hammering.” Yu Qinghuan quickly slapped his hand away, pointed at the dust floating in the air and said, “If you hammer again, we won’t be able to stay in this room.”
Zhao Qingyuan withdrew his hand awkwardly and said, "I'm going to give him a good beating when we get back!" He wiped the sweat off his face and said disdainfully, "Qinghuan, help me light the fire. I'm going to boil some water for a bath."
"Okay." Yu Qinghuan responded, and just as she was about to go out with Zhao Qingyuan, the phone rang.
He picked up the phone and saw that it was Huo Qu.
Huo Qu rarely calls him on his own initiative. Most of the time, he prefers to send messages. Fearing that something might happen to him, Yu Qinghuan quickly pressed the answer button.
"Qinghuan," Huo Qu's muffled voice came from the other end as soon as the call was connected.
"What's wrong?" Yu Qinghuan couldn't help but frown when she noticed that he seemed to be in a bad mood, and asked with concern: "What happened?"
"I miss you." Huo Qu's voice was low and a little aggrieved. "When can you come back?"
"Three more days." Yu Qinghuan's voice softened unconsciously, "Are you bored at home?"
Huo Qu didn't quite understand what bored meant, so he chose to ignore his words and tried to organize his words, wanting to tell him what happened at home, "Qing Huan, today... is very strange."
"Hmm?" Yu Qinghuan was stunned for a moment. Just as he was about to ask, a noisy voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Qinghuan! Come out quickly, we don't have enough rice seedlings for tomorrow, we have to go get them now!"
"Stop talking on the phone. I'm waiting for you! Hurry up!"
"I'm sorry, Huo Qu, I suddenly have work to do. You go to sleep, I'll call you tomorrow." After saying that, under the repeated urging of the staff, he ruthlessly hung up the phone.
Huo Qu listened blankly to the busy tone on the phone. After a long while, he put down the phone helplessly.
He missed Qinghuan so much and he had a lot to say to him. But Qinghuan didn't think about him. He only liked working and even hung up his phone because of work.
Huo Qu pursed his lips and felt a little angry for the first time.
At this moment, the phone suddenly dinged and a new message popped up. It was from Yu Qinghuan, and only had five short words -
"I missed you, too."
Huo Qu rubbed the words on the screen repeatedly, and the corners of his lips curled up unconsciously. Since he also misses him, then, then he should forgive him a little first, but only a little. As for the rest, he will have to wait until he sees him.
The author has something to say: Oh, many fairies didn’t understand yesterday.
In fact, this was a foreshadowing that was buried before. Qinghuan fell into a manhole and died in her previous life while trying to save someone. The previous chapter pointed out that this person was Huo Qu. So their fate is continued from the previous life to this life~
I will put the specific details in the extra chapter. Qinghuan’s rebirth is not that simple. As the saying goes, everything has a cause and an effect. This is a big mouthful of candy hehehe!
