Mrs. Huo is a Crybaby Chapter 140
Advertisement
Yan Zezheng was surprised, but he didn't say anything as his eyes alternated between Song Yaoyao and Huo Yunque.
He tried to force a smile, but instead, he simply looked stiff and scared.
"I wonder what business you wanted to discuss."
"It's nothing much."
Huo Yunque laughed with a lazy expression. "I just wanted to know how much one of your son's arms and legs costs? And what about his life? How much does that cost?"
From beginning to end, his tone was casual like he was joking.
But his words caused one's hairs to stand on end.
Yan Zezheng's throat moved and anger appeared in his eyes. "Mr. Huo, what is the meaning of this? Even if you want to protect her, this isn't the way! My son is the victim. I know the Huos are powerful and domineering, but my son is still lying in the hospital!"
Not only did he not provide an explanation, he even said such unbelievable words.
Could Huo Yunque act like a human?
"Ugh—"
Huo Yunque raised an eyebrow. "Mr. Yan, are you criticizing me?"
Yan Zezheng's expression changed and he reluctantly lowered his head. "I wouldn't dare."
"Oh? You wouldn't?" With the crying girl in his arms, the man's gaze turned cold. "My child was wrong, but that doesn't mean an outsider is allowed to teach her on my behalf. Mr. Yan, I shall remember what you did here today."
He hugged Song Yaoyao and smiled slightly.
"By the way, the business we just discussed, if you change your mind in the future, you are always welcome to discuss it with me."
Yan Zezheng's temples twitched as his gaze turned dark.
As he looked at the back of Huo Yunque, he said in a deep voice, "Mr. Huo, don't go too far! The Huos aren't ones to offend, but if you force me into a corner, the results may not be pleasant!"

"Huh?" Huo Yunque smirked and turned his gaze slightly. "So what if I force you?"
From beginning to end, his tone was calm without any trace of anger.
But the more he was like this, the more intimidating he felt.
It was as though nothing in this world could make his emotions fluctuate. To him, Yan Zezheng was just a drop in the ocean that was not worth mentioning.
"Huo Yunque!!" Yan Zezheng roared.
How dare he?
How dare he act so arrogantly?
"This child has suffered a fright, so I will take her home. If this has caused any inconvenience, I will make it up to you all another day."
After he was done talking, he nodded his head slightly and left with Song Yaoyao.
As soon as he left, the pressure looming above everyone's heads immediately faded.
One person's knees felt weak and they quickly grabbed onto the railings.
"My God, who would dare to ask Mr. Huo for an apology?"
Were they tired of living?
At that moment, everyone looked at the mess on the ground. The bodyguards were lying on the ground like mud. Before their fight started, no one expected this result.
They then looked at the lonely and pale-faced Yan Zezheng and felt slightly sympathetic of him.
The Yans were bad people. From their children's mouths, they had heard how arrogant Yan Ruoyang usually was.
He took advantage of his family's background and often bullied his classmates. So this time, it was good that he had met an obstacle.
But did this mean it was over for the Yans?
According to Mr. Huo's words, it clearly sounded like he was protecting Song Yaoyao to the end, regardless of whether she was right or wrong.
Most importantly...
...the Huos remembered the Yans now.
Those that had business dealings with the Yans immediately decided to cancel all agreements once they got home.

Terminal
My heart was shattered that day. It was on that day that I realized that life had an end, and that mine was coming. It was on that day that I realized that I was going to die. Leukemia, they told me. It's almost over. I didn't know what to do after that. I thought that maybe it would be best to die right then, get it over with. I thought that I could push myself away from all my friends, all my family, stop them from missing me after I was gone. I thought that I could handle it on my own, that perhaps the world was better off without me. I was wrong. So please help me, I'm dying. Save me, I'm falling. They tell me I won't survive. Please catch me, because if you don't, I'll shatter. I can't grab on anymore, I can't keep fighting. It's going to swallow me up. My name is Alyssa Gray, and by the time you finish reading this, I'll be dead. ________________________________ A few warnings and things to note: -I've put up the tramatising content tag due to a lot of mentions on death, dying, illness, and a mother who tends to be rather cruel. I know that I take a perspective that many will strongly disagree with, and I'm okay with that. Just be warned that this isn't lighthearted stuff. This is real, and death is real, and this part streaches beyond the fiction into reality. -I'm going to say a minor spoiler, but I don't want it to take you unaware because it is something to be aware of. At one point, my MC attempts suicide and fails. It's a very violent scene and I will put up the gore tag after writing this, and it's also just really depressing. If this will be triggering, you need to be aware of this before you read it. -This is a christian book. It may go against some of your beliefs. I hope that you can read and comment anyway even if some of it does not sit well with you. Credits for the cover go to the user 'Media in Sanity'. Your help and assitance has meant so much to me, God bless you in your writing and your endevours. A proud member of WriTE. I've promised to finish this fiction and update it at least once a month. My schedule is very irregular, and I'm working on that, but I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that this book stays out there. I'm not ending it until it's done.
