Doomsday Carnival: The Little Monster Only Has a Seven-Second Memory

The scene shifts, and another news item suddenly appears on the screen, saying that the Huo Group has donated more than a dozen of its processing plants for the mass production of soy flour.

This refers to the raw materials used to make steamed buns, as mentioned earlier.

Luo Na and the other two had heard Zhang Dapeng and Zhao Pingsheng mention that their captain was a prince, the kind who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.

Huo Ling's family has been in business for generations, and the processing plant he donated was a flour factory in the past. Now that it has been handed over to the government, it is a very generous gesture.

No wonder it was on the news.

There was a flood of praise online, and some people explained that the Huo family was originally very kind and righteous.

Their ancestors have done many good deeds.

Of course, some people also mentioned the missing eldest son of the Huo family, expressing great regret.

Netizens are discussing it extensively.

-The Huo family truly lives up to their name; they are so benevolent and righteous!

-What else is there to say? A dozen large factories, so many machines, just given away like that, that's incredibly generous! The Huo family is amazing!

- To the Huo family, these are just trinket items, nothing special. They are very wealthy, but to donate them is a great achievement and deserves respect!

- It's a pity. I hope good people will be rewarded. I heard that the only son of the Huo family patriarch has gone missing and has not been found yet. I'm afraid he is in grave danger.

-What? An only child? Doesn't he have several children? I think he has three?

-Tsk tsk tsk, you guys didn't know this, did you? Although there's not much news about his family and he doesn't appear in public often, he had two wives. After his first wife died of illness, he married another one not long after. His first wife gave birth to a son, who was said to be very favored. As a result, his second wife started having a lot of children as soon as she took over. Can you guess why she had so many children? Wasn't it because she was afraid of losing her position?

-Is this your white moonlight? Or is it the white moonlight that died? No wonder your successor is so prolific.

A whole basketful of news and gossip.

Luo Na and the other two secretly watched Huo Ling's reaction. Huo Ling's reaction was indifferent, and he didn't care about the state of his home, which clearly showed that his relationship with his family was extremely bad.

The Huo family was certainly looking for their eldest son, but they weren't necessarily that interested. After all, the other family had already had four children, and his eldest son from his previous marriage was rebellious, so he wasn't that important.

The news even said that she was already pregnant with her fifth child.

Luo Na and the other two kept glancing at Huo Ling, feeling sorry for him. Sure enough, with a stepmother comes a stepfather, and that stepmother is really good at having children!

Lin Shuangshuang was also looking at Huo Ling. She knew that he really didn't care about the Huo family, and he had already taken back all of his mother's things. As for his father's things, he thought they were dirty and didn't want any of them.

He had no desire to associate with the Huo family because no one in the family loved him anymore. Even his grandparents, who had once doted on him, expressed disappointment in Huo Ling, criticizing him for being petty and narrow-minded. They argued that the Huo family was a clan, and the most important thing for a clan was to have many descendants.

No one could bear to see his mother leave, but they couldn't gamble the fate of the Huo family for one person. It was essential to have more children to ensure the continuation of the family. They also required Huo Ling to act like an older brother.

As expected of a family of businessmen, when it comes to profit, the members of this large family are quite ruthless.

This was the first lesson he received as a child.

Huo Ling didn't commit suicide because of his strong will, and it just so happened that Lin Shuangshuang appeared in time. The two bitter girls got together and lived a sweet life for six years.

Huo Ling noticed her teammates glancing at her repeatedly, so she said, "I'm fine, you don't need to do this, just eat your food."

Everyone could only say "oh," but they still couldn't help looking at him, and finally managed to hold back.

Lorna muttered under her breath, "So prolific, does she really think she's the queen bee?"

Why not have 108 children?

The other party's thoughts were completely transparent, and they made no attempt to conceal them.

Huo's current wife said she wants to have more children for the Huo family, as the old man enjoys a lively atmosphere.

Lin Shuangshuang suddenly remembered something else. Her memories of Huo Ling were always very vivid. This stepmother was indeed very good at putting on a show. She was very polite to Huo Ling and did not do anything to bully the child. She was not a vicious person, but her ambition was obvious.

Huo Ling cares about his former home. After his mother died, his former home was gone. He also respects his former father, not his current father.

So he didn't want or care about anything else, only taking his mother's belongings.

The meal was an emotional rollercoaster, like riding a rollercoaster. The three of them exclaimed that next time they ate together, could they please turn off the news first?

I'll watch it after I finish eating.

Lunch is over.

Everyone went back to their rooms to rest. Zhao Pingsheng also saw the news during his lunch break. He had just come downstairs when he ran into Huo Ling, who was about to come upstairs.

The two buddies met at the elevator entrance.

Zhao Pingsheng wanted to offer some words of comfort, after all, he empathized with the situation, as his family wasn't much better off either.

It's all just outward appearances of a large family.

There are countless filthy things going on inside; it's really not worth staying for.

Upon seeing him, Huo Ling raised an eyebrow and said, "How did you know Lin Shuangshuang bought me a lot of things today? I said I didn't want them, but she insisted on buying them."

Zhao Pingsheng: ...

roll!!

He's overly concerned about him!

Huo Ling saw Zhao Pingsheng roll her eyes and brush past him, so he said, "Why do you think she's always so nice to me?"

Zhao Pingsheng broke down in tears, saying, "Because she loves you! Understand? She loves you so much! Okay?"

What did he, a single guy, do to deserve this? He muttered to himself, "I shouldn't have gone downstairs." He really didn't check the almanac before going downstairs today!

How could such a calamity have befallen us?!

Huo Ling nodded, "Of course she loves me the most." In the world, only he and she love each other the most.

Someone is in a good mood.

Dr. Zhao sighed. "Never mind, my friend can still crack jokes, so he should be fine. He shouldn't be bothered by this family mess."

Huo Ling asked him where he was going.

Zhao Pingsheng said listlessly, "The experiment failed again. I'm coming down to get some fresh air. Damn it, I refuse to believe I can't crack this damn brain-eating amoeba!!!"

Every time an experiment failed, he felt like he'd swallowed a powder keg and wanted to explode.

Huo Ling was used to this. "There's no one in the living room downstairs for now. Please make yourself at home."

"I know, get lost and go find your wife, don't bother me." Zhao Pingsheng waved his hand impatiently and turned to find the waiters to order food.

Huo Ling knew, of course, that his friend cared about him. He was just trying to put his mind at ease in his own way, and incidentally showing off their affection. He was indeed very happy.

He savored the word "wife," growing fonder with each passing moment. He needed to propose first, then register their marriage, before he could openly call Lin Shuangshuang his wife.

The little monster was unaware of this; she was tending to the fruits and vegetables on the top floor. The world had become a wasteland, but this little corner of the world was an oasis.

Lin Shuangshuang likes this place. When she has nothing to do, she comes up here to daydream, and also to weed and prune the plants. The strawberries she planted last time have already started bearing fruit thanks to Zhao Pingsheng's nutrient solution.

high speed.

She counted them one by one, and there were eleven strawberries that were almost ripe. She planned to give one to each of Lorna and the others, making a total of five, and then there would be six left.

Lin Shuangshuang didn't plan to eat them herself. Because of the troubles that happened to the Huo family today, she gave the remaining strawberries to Huo Ling, letting him enjoy six of them all by himself.
