once more. However, Huo Mingzheng didn't like it. She asked him why.He didn't answer, coaxing her to call him "second brother" instead, and after that, she never called him Azheng again.Only his clos...Lu Youguang smiled ambiguously, "It's Mingzheng, I haven't had time to congratulate you. You got into your dream military academy."

"Thank you." Huo Mingzheng didn't show any emotion. After he finished speaking, he grabbed the woman who was passing by him, "I'm going to see Fifth Uncle, come with me."

She stopped abruptly, gasping in surprise.

At that time, Uncle Huo was still alive, but he wasn't in good health and rarely went out.

Ho Mingzheng was tall with long legs, but he didn't walk fast. She took small steps behind him, she didn't need to chase after him.

"What are you doing" Huo Mingzheng, who was suddenly walking ahead, asked her.

She recalled the previous feeling of discomfort, a physiological unease, "Uncle Lu is going to guide me with my homework."

"Do you still need guidance" he suddenly stopped and turned to look at her.

>Fortunately, she reacted in time and didn't bump into him. She complained inwardly about why he suddenly stopped, but honestly answered, "I don't need his teachings, I was just about to say it when you appeared."

Ho Mingzheng lightly tapped her forehead, "You, you, you, what's your name"

She knew his temper and immediately sweetly called out, "Second Brother."

It seemed satisfied with her answer, his voice softened slightly, “Let’s go.”

She nodded and continued to walk beside him. As he was walking ahead, he suddenly stopped again. This time it wasn't her fault; she didn't react in time and bumped into his back.

His jersey was soaked with sweat, carrying a scorching heat that touched her forehead. It wasn't a pleasant feeling.

She muttered under her breath.

He Mingzheng saw the sweat on her forehead and her disapproving expression, clearly impatient. He rummaged in the pocket of his sweatpants, not finding anything. Catching sight of the tissue in her pocket, he took one out.

She didn't understand and reached for a tissue to wipe her sweat, but he grabbed her arm. "Don't move."

She was taken aback, "What"

He held the paper in his hand, wiping away the sweat on her forehead with a gesture that wasn't crude but certainly not gentle.

"Frizzzy."

She was also furious and retorted, "If you hadn't suddenly stopped without a word, would I have crashed into you I haven't even said anything to you yet."

"Learn to talk back now" He wore a serious expression, but his face didn't look angry at all.

She muttered softly, "I'm just stating the facts. Is Eldest Brother so domineering that he doesn't even allow me to speak the truth"

He crumpled the wad of paper and tossed it effortlessly into the trash can. He looked down at her, "So, that's my fault"

She turned her head to look elsewhere, nodding mentally, figuring he had some self-awareness at least.

Huo Mingzheng suddenly asked out of the blue, "Have you grown taller"

She stared at him in some surprise, touching her hair. "My mom just measured my height the other day, and I've grown a centimeter. Did you notice that"

" Huo Mingzheng snorted, turned around and walked forward, "My eyes are the ruler, believe it or not"

Fu Yan had forgotten how she answered him at the time. Looking back now, if Huo Mingzheng hadn't appeared suddenly that day, would Lu Youguang have done something inappropriate to her

Lu Youguang knew she was not welcome at the Huo family and dared not make it public. He kept demanding things from her...

Huo Mingzheng, he should know Lu Youguang's special fetish.

So that day Huo Mingzheng was the one who saved her.ndoned on the ground by the side door. Fu Yan thought of the child she hadn't been able to keep, and a bitter feeling surged into her eyes.She took a deep breath, holding back her tears, and bent down...
