35 -35: You Will Always Be the Dog of the Huo Family
“Yes!”
Huo Qiang’s face showed no signs of emotion.
He sprung into action immediately.
From within his cowhide boots, he pulled out a dagger.
Without saying a word, he directed the razor-sharp blade toward his thigh.
Just as the dagger was about to pierce through his clothes, a white and delicate hand reached out and forcefully grasped the blade.
Scarlet blood trickled down, instantly dying Huo Qiang’s black pants a dark color.
Upon seeing this scene, Huo Yirong’s eyebrows twitched in amusement, the playfulness revealing itself on his charming face.
“Second Master, it’s my incompetence that’s to blame, not my Uncle Qiang.”
Huo Zhi’s hand was stained crimson to its grip on the blade.
She stared resolutely at the man leaning casually against the door frame.
“Are you questioning my judgement?” Huo Yirong smiled devilishly at the corner of his lip.
Huo Qiang’s error was not advocating for Huo Zhi, but his failure to honor the Huo family’s dignity in saving a life, at all costs.
“Huo Zhi, let go!”
Perceiving Huo Yirong’s anger, Huo Qiang sternly ordered.
The seemingly cheerful face of the second master concealed a storm of fury that he could clearly see.
He didn’t believe Huo Zhi could not notice it.
This girl is too obstinate, much too naive.
Since the second master has decided to punish him, his decision could not be void.
Huo Zhi, as if she hadn’t heard Huo Qiang’s words, kept her gaze locked onto Huo Yirong, pleading evident in her eyes.
Huo Yirong stood up straight, wearing only a bath towel around his waist.
Yet he walked towards the two leaders of the Hidden Department of the Huo family with an air of elegance as if he were donned in extravagant attire.
There was no mirth in his eyes as he looked coldly at Huo Zhi.
“Little Zhizi, you’re growing bolder by the day, even forgetting the most basic rules of the Hidden Department of the Huo Family?”
Huo Yirong lifted his foot, stomping forcefully onto Huo Zhi’s shoulder.
Despite slightly trembling, she maintained her perfectly knelt posture.
“Ignorant fool!” Huo Yirong’s tone darkened, “You certainly won’t escape punishment today, now shoo away!”
Upon finishing his words, Huo Zhi was kicked aside like a soccer ball.
“Old Qiang, what are you waiting for!”
Huo Qiang’s dagger was no longer restrained, and he forcefully plunged the blade into his thigh.
The depth of the wound was at least five centimeters.
Scarlet blood instantly dyed the corridor’s carpet.
“Tsk—” Huo Yirong frowned slightly while staring at the defiled carpet, “Don’t forget to have it cleaned.”
“I will obey.”
Huo Qiang’s voice was steady, without a hint of tremor, as if he didn’t feel pain in his leg.
“Get out.”
“Yes——”
Huo Qiang got up, casting a subtle glance towards Huo Zhi, collapsed not far away, incapable of moving.
A light of hopelessness flickered in Huo Zhi’s eyes.
Her continuous mistakes angered the second master; escape was beyond her reach tonight.
After Huo Qiang left, Huo Yirong approached Huo Zhi.
His slippered foot stomped on Huo Zhi’s face as if it were a rag.
“Little Zhizi, no matter how capable you are in the Hidden Department, remember, you are forever the Huo family’s dog.
If I desire to kill you, your only option is to obediently follow, understand?”
“I will remember.”
Huo Zhi’s face, distorted from the pressure, mumbled unclearly.
Her beautiful eyes looked up at the man standing before her.
Unable to look elsewhere due to his lack of clothing, she kept her gaze respectful and humble, as if he were a god.
The third master of the Huo family was the lord of all in the Hidden Department, while the second master was the ruthless executioner.
The fate of everyone in the Hidden Department lay in the hands of these two men.
The second master’s methods were the cruelest.
Thinking of the fate of those who previously made mistakes, the fear in Huo Zhi’s heart amplified as she began to shiver uncontrollably.
