Chapter 550: End Up Getting Played

Huo Tingrui tossed the odd feeling he felt behind him and continued. “I’m glad you get it, Mr. Min. After all, my sister is young and innocent and is at the age when she is easily misled.”

Huo Yao went speechless.

What kind of bullshit was this?

“Uh huh. I get it.” Min Yu glanced at Huo Yao before he acknowledged softly and promptly lowered his head so that no one could see his expression.

Huo Tingrui uncrossed his legs and prepared to stand up to leave when someone suddenly pushed his shoulder down. He raised his head slowly and saw Huo Yao smiling ambiguously at him.

Huo Tingrui was dumbstruck.

Oh god.

When did his little sister get here?

Why had he not heard a sound?

After some time, Huo Tingrui shifted his eyes sheepishly and gave her a nervous smile. “Yao... When did you get here?”

“If I didn’t turn up, I would never have learned how concerned you are about me.” Huo Yao spoke airily as she looked at him.

Huo Tingrui felt a chill running down his spine when he heard her tone, even his legs went soft. He did not even know what he was saying. “Well... it is my job to take care of you since I am your older brother.”

He promptly transformed into a coward.

He lost every drop of arrogance.

Zhuo Yun almost tripped over the mop when he heard this while he pretended to mop nearby.

From the looks of it, this second older brother-in-law was just a paper tiger.

“Uh huh. You must be quite free to run all the way here to act on your concern for me.” Huo Yao nodded seriously and squeezed Huo Tingrui’s shoulder every now and then.

Huo Tingrui instantly got afraid when he felt her squeezing his shoulder. “Ahem ahem. Yao, I simply came over to thank your tuition teacher. I honestly didn’t mean any harm.”

Huo Tingrui looked at Min Yu sitting across from him. “Right, Sir?”

He even changed his salutation and greeted Min Yu as a teacher. He was clearly getting desperate.

Instead, Min Yu continued to act vulnerable as he replied sadly. “Your brother is right. I will be more careful from now on.”

Huo Tingrui was flabbergasted.

Be careful of what?

When did he mention this?

Huo Tingrui could not help turning to look at his little sister. His heart skipped a beat when he saw the smile in her eyes. Had his little sister mistaken him for a bully?

“Brother Tingrui, you are so naughty.” Huo Yao shook her head and sighed.

Huo Tingrui explained himself hurriedly. “Yao, listen here. It’s not what you think.”

Huo Yao pulled her hands back and said, “Dad has been wanting to buy dinner for my tuition teacher. How do you think he would feel about this?”

Huo Tingrui’s lips hastily twitched. He could not help trembling as he thought about how his parents taught him a lesson just a few days ago.

Huo Tingrui raised his head to look at Min Yu. He finally realized why this pretty boy suddenly had a change in attitude earlier on. He was just putting on a show for his little sister.

Huo Tingrui was furious. In the past, he was always the one putting on the act. He never dreamed that he would end up getting played like this!

It was simply infuriating!
