Chapter 7: A Little Familiar
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Huo Jingshen glanced at the floor briefly, then asked in a low voice, “Grandpa, what happened?”
“What else could it be aside from your hopeless third brother?!”
As soon as he mentioned his youngest grandson, Old Master Huo started breathing heavily, face red in anger. “He fought with someone at a bar in the middle of the night and it escalated until they ended up in the police station. The police just called to inform us. This is unacceptable!”
Huo Yuanshan had moved back into the Huo family villa after receiving his medical diagnosis three months ago.
The compound was very heavily guarded, and was the most suitable place for the old man to rest and recuperate. The neighbors in this neighborhood were all very close and they knew everything about each other’s families. There were no secrets among them at all.
The old man was obviously furious because he didn’t want this getting out to the public.
“Is Zexi okay?”
“Why wouldn’t he be okay? He must have gotten into trouble and beat someone up again! That scoundrel is mixing around with the wrong crowd and causing trouble here and there just because his parents are not around! He is giving me problems day and night!” Old Master Huo became even more angrier and shouted at the driver, “Liang Fei! Hurry up and drive me to the police station now!”
Old Mistress Huo hurriedly stopped him. “Are you crazy?! Do you realize who you are? How can you go to the police station?”
Old Master Huo was a little taken aback. After regaining his senses, he quickly said, “Jingshen, go to the police station with Uncle Liang and bring that brat back!”
Huo Jingshen raised his brows slightly but could only agree to his grandfather’s words. “Okay.”
***
At a police station.
As soon as they entered the interrogation room, they heard Huo Zexi say pitifully, “Uncle Liang, I am in so much pain. You have to gain justice for me.”
Huo Zexi was seated there in a very sorry state.
He had blood stains on his forehead and he was still bleeding from his nose. His handsome face was as swollen as a pig’s head, and his clothes and pants were terribly crumpled.
He looked completely different from the young man who had gone off to flirt with women earlier that day.
There was a woman resting her head on the table next to him, her wavy black hair hanging off the table and covering her entire face. However, the chiffon blouse she was wearing looked a little familiar…
“Elder brother, why are you here?” Huo Zexi was surprised. He really did not expect his brother to rush over so late at night.
Ever since Huo Jingshen returned to the Huo family, he had always been indifferent towards everyone else. Since Huo Jingshen was seven years older than him and they had not seen each other in more than ten years, Huo Zexi always felt that there was a huge gap between the both of them. They were not close to each other at all.
Huo Jingshen turned his menacing gaze to Huo Zexi. “What happened?”
Huo Zexi averted his gaze, hesitant to speak up.
After all, it was very embarrassing for a man who was 1.8 metres tall to get beaten up by a young girl. How could he possibly tell people that?
To top it all off, she had even smashed everything in the bar. After that, the owner of the bar demanded compensation, but Huo Zexi’s grandfather had just cut off his credit card and his parents were not in the country. Hence, he did not have any cash on hand and refused to pay.
As a result, they had ended up in the police station.
“Brother Huo.” One of Huo Zexi’s friend hurriedly tried to defend his friend. “Well, it’s like this. We were just drinking in the bar with Zexi but this young woman, who clearly does not know how to distinguish between right and wrong, swung a beer bottle at his forehead. She even started punching and kicking him, and she is really very strong. Zexi might be weak but even both of us together couldn’t stop her. Look, Zexi’s face is already swollen after getting beaten up by her.”
Huo Zexi glared at his friend viciously.
Damn it, his friend sure had a big mouth!
Were they deliberately trying to badmouth him? Who said that he was weak? That young woman was obviously very strong!
To think that he actually thought that she was very beautiful! Was she even a woman?
“Are you Young Master Huo’s elder brother?” As soon as the owner of the bar heard the conversation, he hurried over and said, “Let me tell you what happened: Your brother and this young lady fought in my bar, and then they destroyed my car! I have already made the calculations and the damage amounts to four hundred and eighty six thousand yuan-”
“I did not smash anything!” Huo Zexi yelled indignantly.
“But Young Master Huo, the young lady said that you wanted to buy her a drink, so all the things that she smashed should be charged to your account…”
“My ass! Are you blind? Can’t you see that she beat me up until I am in this state right now?”
“But she obviously knows you-”
“The entire Nanchang knows who I am! She is trying to trick you and you’re actually believing her?”
“Young Master Huo, you cannot try to push the blame to others…”
“What blame is there?!”
“Young Master Huo…”
While the both of them were engaged in a very fierce confrontation…
“Damn it! Why are you making so much noise?!”
Su Wanwan had stood up, her face abnormally red. She was squinting at them, obviously drunk.
Her left sleeve had slid down slightly, revealing a delicate collarbone. Her black hair hung over her shoulders messily, making her look defiant yet enchanting. She clearly did not realize how alluring she looked at the moment, as she yawned before demanding, “Where is the washroom?”
The police officer who was taking their statements was very young and clearly frightened by her. He stammered, “G-Go out, then t-turn right after you step out the door.”
Su Wanwan yawned again. She had no regard for anyone else in the room as she strode outside .
“Damn it, you’d better stop right there!” Huo Zexi lunged forward but suddenly felt pain in his arm.
