Chapter 113 Family Reunion

After Zhang Lexuan finished dinner, Huo Yuhao changed the old bedding. Seeing Zhang Lexuan obediently return to bed, Huo Yuhao remembered he needed to go back to the Soul Guidance Department to report.

A slight sense of guilt welled up in her heart. Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er had come to find her before, and judging from their demeanor, they had probably fought with the Demon King.

His adoptive parents valued him so much; he should have informed them of his return first, but he was delayed by lust.

Huo Yuhao hurriedly ran towards the Soul Guidance Department's experimental building. He knew that at this time, Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er would definitely be in the Ninth Experimental Zone.

After passing Poseidon Lake and traversing numerous teaching buildings, Huo Yuhao finally arrived at the Soul Guidance Department's experimental building. He entered this incredibly familiar building and walked along the metal-structured corridor, stopping at the gate to the Ninth Experimental Area that he remembered.

He took out the token from his soul tool, and as the door slowly opened, Huo Yuhao quietly walked in.

Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er were discussing the development plan for a new type of soul tool when the door to the testing area suddenly opened. Turning around in confusion, they discovered it was Huo Yuhao, whom they hadn't seen in a long time.
Xian Lin'er's lips trembled slightly, and tears streamed uncontrollably down her face. The next instant, she was in front of Huo Yuhao, embracing him tightly, her voice trembling with sobs, "My good child, you're finally back!"

As she spoke, Xian Lin'er cupped Huo Yuhao's face in her hands and examined him carefully from head to toe. As she checked, she nagged, "Are you hurt anywhere? Your face has gotten so thin! You haven't been eating properly."

Qian Duoduo smiled at Huo Yuhao, her eyes slightly moist. The burly man, standing at three feet tall, turned his head away somewhat embarrassedly.

Huo Yuhao clearly saw him take a cloth from his soul tool and secretly wipe away the tears that were about to fall.
Am I really that important?

Previously, he had only accepted these godparents because both sides had something to gain. They had always been very good to him, and Huo Yuhao had always remembered it. However, he was just counting the favors he owed them one by one.
At most, it's just a teacher-student relationship.
However, when these two actually went to the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest to demand people from a group of ferocious beasts for his sake, how could Huo Yuhao not be moved?

When they met again, Xianlin'er and Qian Duoduo's feelings for him were pure and unadulterated; they were nothing but concern.

Huo Yuhao bit his lip, his nose tingling, but he forced himself not to cry. He just smiled and hugged Xian Lin'er, saying softly, "Mom, I'm fine, I'm doing great. I've even grown taller, don't worry."

Xian Lin'er then stopped crying, gently wiped her tears away, and smiled through her tears, saying, "I've indeed grown quite a bit taller, that's good, that's good."

"Are you hungry? Have you had dinner?"

Huo Yuhao scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "I just ate at Sister Lexuan's place, so I'm not very hungry now."

Xian Lin'er looked at him suspiciously for a moment, then smiled playfully, "What's going on between you and that girl Le Xuan? Tell your mother, maybe I can give you some advice!"

She clearly remembered how Huo Yuhao and Zhang Lexuan held hands back then. If there wasn't something fishy going on, Xian Lin'er wouldn't believe it. Huo Yuhao blushed slightly upon hearing this, but he didn't intend to hide anything. If he didn't even have the courage to publicly acknowledge their relationship, what kind of revenge could he possibly take? He might as well just jump into the lake and commit suicide!

We're already together.

His overly frank remarks left Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo speechless. They quickly exchanged glances, then looked back at Huo Yuhao, their shock undiminished.
After a moment of silence, Xian Lin'er asked cautiously, "So, how far have you two gotten?"

Qian Duoduo's pupils dilated instantly, and she stared at Xian Lin'er in horror. "No, isn't asking that a bit..."
"Huh?" Huo Yuhao was stunned. How could this be so sudden?
Before he could respond, Xian Lin'er's smile gradually disappeared, and Qian Duoduo felt a cold sweat run down his back.
The two exchanged an incredulous glance, then looked simultaneously at Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao steeled himself and simply nodded, acknowledging it.
Xian Lin'er covered her mouth, her voice trembling as she said, "You two, isn't this too early?"

Qian Duoduo nodded in agreement, looking equally surprised, and said, "Isn't it too early?"

Huo Yuhao didn't speak, but looked at Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo with a serious expression.

Xian Lin'er seemed somewhat worried, saying, "What do you plan to do with the other girls? Especially Xiao Tao, given her martial soul, she's probably already set on you. Have you thought about that?"

Huo Yuhao was silent for a moment, then said with a firm look in his eyes, "If it has to be me, I will do my best to take care of everyone who is willing to be devoted to me. Rather than rejecting someone and causing our relationship to become distant, I would rather accept everyone. I am willing to take on the responsibilities I should take on, rather than run away from them. So I don't make choices, I only choose to accept."

Xian Lin'er was stunned; she hadn't expected Huo Yuhao to say such a thing. To call him greedy was one thing, but he was also willing to bear the consequences and responsibilities.
She recalled someone from the past who used sweet words and handsome looks to deceive one woman after another, yet it was as if he were just passing through a sea of ​​flowers without getting attached, ultimately making a choice but not knowing who he had wronged.
In short, the past is the past, and she has gradually let it go. As for the affairs of the young people...
It's best not to interfere and let things take their natural course.

Xian Lin'er turned to look at Qian Duoduo. The two understood each other perfectly. Xian Lin'er raised her hand and pinched Huo Yuhao's cheek, saying helplessly, "We won't interfere too much in your affairs. Just be careful not to hurt Le Xuan's feelings."

"This girl is excellent in every way – personality, character, ability, talent, and looks. I'm quite satisfied with her. If you betray her heart, don't blame me for teaching you a lesson!"

Seeing that his godmother had relented, Huo Yuhao quickly seized the opportunity and said, "That's right, that's right. I wouldn't dare to hurt Sister Lexuan's feelings even if you gave me a hundred lives. You can rest assured! Even if it means I have to suffer, I can't let Sister Lexuan suffer!"

"That's more like it!" Xian Lin'er tugged at Huo Yuhao's ear again, and only let go after a few tugs.

Seeing that the pleasantries were almost over, Qian Duoduo immediately suggested, "Let's go home tonight. It's been a long time since we had a meal together, Yuhao."

"Okay, whatever Mom and Dad decide."
