Chapter 7: 4.2
“Weren’t you acting all high and mighty before? Where’s your attitude now, huh? Why don’t you continue talking back!” The man thought he had shocked Lu Shijin into silence and mocked, “To refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit, let me tell you something, you have to drink this wine today, regardless of what you want!”
Lu Shijin sneered, setting the glass in his hands down as he prepared to teach these hooligans a lesson. As he stood up, he coincidentally saw a man drinking two seats down from him and felt startled.
“Don’t you think that that man’s a bit familiar?” Lu Shijin asked 711.
711 calmly responded, “No.”
“Tsk, it’s not good for children to lie.”
711 kept silent and played dead.
“Did you think I wouldn’t recognize him? Even from profile, he already resembles Huo Qi that bastard by five to six points. If they don’t have any relation, then I’ll cut my head off for you.”
“. . . Why would I need your head?”
Lu Shijin smiled, “So you admit they’re related? Who is he?”
711 fell silent, then said after a long time, “He’s… Huo Lian.”
Huo Lian, the only villain in the story, Huo Qi’s uncle.
Huo Qi’s grandfather, the elderly master Huo, had two sons. The elder was Huo Qi’s biological father, Huo Yan, and the other was Huo Lian.
Huo Lian was the byproduct of elderly master Huo’s momentary loss of control, when he had a one night stand with an obscure 18th line actress.
The little celebrity secretly gave birth to Huo Lian without telling the Huo family, wanting to secure a way for herself in the latter half of life.
When Huo Lian was born, elderly master Huo was nearing a hundred years of age, already an old man. Naturally he didn’t want someone with his blood kept away from his family.
After spending a bit of money to get rid of the little celebrity, he took Huo Lian to the ancestral home to greet his ancestors.
When Huo Lian arrived at the Huo’s, he was only an infant in swaddling clothes, and Huo Yan was already over thirty.
Even if he had the protection of elderly master Huo, no one in the Huo family would care for an illegitimate child.
Huo Lian grew up in a cold environment, lacking maternal love. He gradually developed a paranoid character. Other than elderly master Huo, there were very few people in the Huo family who took notice of this second master Huo.
Of course, Huo Lian was no match for Huo Qi, who had the protagonist halo. In the end, Huo Lian’s plan was completely destroyed by Huo Qi. Elderly master Huo was furious at what his young son had done, immediately kicking him out of the family.
As the saying goes, enemies and lovers are destined to meet.
Lu Shijin clenched his jaw. “It turns out that he’s the one I die to.”
“. . . He has a valid reason.”

“If I were to get rid of him in advance, wouldn’t I not have to die at the end?”“Calm down, murder is illegal!”
Lu Shijin felt a bit regretful. “True, he’s not worth it. I should find another way.”
711 was very panicked, “. . . What are you going to do?”
“Before, he had no choice. But it’s different now, because I’m here.”
711: . . .
“I’m talking to you, did you hear me?” The man saw that Lu Shijin hadn’t responded in a long time and pushed Lu Shijin in annoyance.
He clearly didn’t use much force, but Lu Shijin took advantage of the push to back up several steps, ‘coincidentally’ ending up sitting on Huo Lian’s leg.
Huo Lian instinctively stopped Lu Shijin, and when he came back to his senses, he looked down in displeasure.
Lu Shijin lifted his head to look at Huo Lian. His wet eyes were full of helplessness, like a little lamb who accidentally went into a den of wolves, confused and needing help.
Whoever saw him would feel pity and want to help him.
But the man in front of him looked at Lu Shijin with coldness before moving his gaze away.
His clenched jaw and lips showed how much he disliked this person who suddenly bumped into him.
It just so happened that there were a couple minutes left of the effects of the mind-reading card.
Lu Shijin saw Huo Qi’s thoughts, which were completely different from his cold expression.
【His butt’s pretty elastic.】
【Sss, bumped into it, almost had a reaction.】
Lu Shijin: . . .

Is there something wrong with the mind-reading ability?
Lu Shijin kept his pose of having his waist supported by Huo Lian while sitting on his thigh, not standing up for a long time.
【He’s definitely seducing me.】
Appearing to understand what was happening, Huo Lian’s eyes flashed with ice and when he spoke, his voice carried a bone-chilling cold.
“Scram.”
