Chapter 181: No Hurt Without Comparison

Upon hearing his great-grandpa’s voice, Xiaoqi hurried out of the gym on the second floor. He went down the stairs and asked excitedly, “Great-grandpa, has Mommy’s variety show started?”

Su Xiyin took a look at the little guy, who was wearing a handsome red boxing suit. He had just finished practicing, and his face was still covered in sweat. Her heart ached as she got up and carried him down the stairs to wipe his sweat. She kept complaining. “Hubby, look at Ci Er. Is he serious? How old is Xiaoqi? Why should he practice boxing?”

Ever since they had returned, Xiaoqi had been boxing in the gym every night. He spent two hours after dinner, and no one could persuade him otherwise. He insisted on practicing.

“A boy should train more. He won’t be bullied in the future. Don’t feel sorry for him.” Huo Xiao frowned as he looked in the direction of the bedroom. Then, he bellowed, “Huo Ci, did you hear me?”

Xiaoqi comforted her with a smile. “Great-grandmother, Grandpa did not force Xiaoqi to practice. Xiaoqi volunteered. When Xiaoqi becomes strong in the future, he will be able to protect you.”

Su Xiyin sighed and removed his boxing suit. Only then did she realize that he was sweating profusely. Her heart ached even more. “Your mommy’s variety show will take a while to begin. You should take a shower first.”

“Father, can you stop?” Huo Ci walked out of the bedroom reluctantly and yawned.

“Come over quickly and project this on the screen for me.” Huo Xiao glared at him. He was not in a good mood. “Look at the time. Sleep, sleep, sleep. All you know is how to sleep. Are you a pig? All you do is sleep and eat!”

Huo Ci held back a mouthful of blood but did not dare reply. He had not slept for two days during filming, so he had been forced to go home to take a nap and was now getting scolded instead!

Upon seeing that he was done in no time, Huo Xiao stood up to leave. In a low voice, his father said, “Sit properly. My dear grandchild’s variety show is about to start. You’ll watch the variety show.”

“Father, you are still forcing me!” Huo Ci was so angry that he growled. “I don’t even have the right to decide what I can do in this house, do I?”

D*mn!

What a bullsh*t daughter! Look, he was about to die because of her!

“Why are the two of you arguing? You’re already adults. Aren’t you afraid of being mocked?” Su Xiyin watched as the father and son quarreled again. “Hubby, he can go to bed if he doesn’t want to watch.”

Huo Ci’s face was ashen as he turned around to leave. “Bye, I won’t be coming home in the future. You can stay alone!”

“You…” Huo Xiao threw his slippers at him angrily. “Stop right there! Bring me your phone, laptop, and tablet.”

“What do you want my phone for?” Huo Ci held back his anger.

He could not return to this house. Now, his father disliked everything about him and wanted to punish him!

“What kind of nonsense are you spouting? Bring them over.” Huo Xiao was holding another slipper in his hand, gesturing that he would throw it at him.

“I understand.” Huo Ci gritted his teeth. He could not be bothered to argue with him, lest he got scolded again. Spamming clicks my *ss. “I’ll get them for you now!”

Xiaoqi, who had just showered, was wearing crocodile pajamas. His delicate face was still wet, and his big eyes looked at Huo Ci sympathetically. Grandpa was so pitiful!

“Xiaoqi, come over here quickly. Your mommy is coming out soon.” Huo Xiao turned around and waved at Xiaoqi lovingly.

When Huo Ci came back, he happened to see this scene. There was no harm if there was no comparison. He took a breath and threw the equipment on the table before turning to leave.
