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

When the five of them appeared in the main hall, the living room was very lively. Huo Yichuan and Wen Jingshu were both there, along with a bunch of relatives.

As soon as they saw Huo Ling enter, they all stood up excitedly.

"Oh my! It's Ling back!!"

"Really! You child! So insensible, you're going to drive your grandparents crazy!"

"Your dad's hair's all turned white! Aren't you going to come over and apologize to him?"

"Where have you been? Your auntie was so worried about you! Let your auntie see you!"

"Who are these people...?"

The relatives swarmed forward, but stopped when they saw that Huo Ling was accompanied by several other people, and began to scrutinize the young men.

The two men looked young, but their appearances were average; they didn't seem to come from wealthy families. The tall girl was excessively beautiful, like a movie star, but lacked decorum. The other girl was also very pretty, with delicate features and a lively spirit, but she was actually holding Huo Ling's hand?! Where did this wild girl come from?!

The gossipy women immediately frowned and began to look them up and down.

Huo Ting and Huo Yuan, hiding to the side, were practically grinning from ear to ear. "Why did you bring all these people back, Big Brother?" "Exactly, we bring all sorts of people home."

The two brothers were hoping their older brother wouldn't come back, lest he fight them for the family fortune.

Huo Zhixian scoffed from the side, "It stinks. People who come back from outside the city all stink."

It actually has no taste at all.

Lorna, with her sharp ears, was initially quite nervous, but upon hearing these sarcastic remarks, she blurted out, "Hey, girl, you need to get your nose checked, okay? Your perfume smells like urine." She didn't know who this person was, but she was annoyed and had to retaliate.

Huo Zhixian's face immediately turned bright red. Pointing at Luo Na, she said, "You! You! Who are you calling 'sister'?! Do you even know what politeness is? Believe me or not..."

"If you can't speak properly, then shut up." Huo Ling's glare startled Huo Zhixian, who took a step back and dared not utter a sound.

The Huo brothers, Huo Ting and Huo Yuan, gloated and didn't care about their sister's situation.

Lorna, now confident, retorted sarcastically, "Politeness, my foot! You think you're polite just because you say someone smells bad?"

Lin Shuangshuang glanced around at the crowd with displeasure. Most of them were just watching the show, and very few of them were genuinely worried about Huo Ling.

The little monster was inexplicably irritable.

Huo Ling squeezed her hand reassuringly, feeling bad that she was suffering along with him. "Where is Grandma?" He ignored the hypocrisy of these relatives and didn't want to deal with them.

Let's get straight to the point.

Huo Yichuan, seated firmly in the main seat, angrily slammed the bracelet in his hand onto the coffee table upon hearing this. "What kind of talk is this?! Go out and see what kind of friends you've made! It's a complete mess, utterly disgraceful!"

"Is this how the Huo family treats its guests? I remember my grandfather, your father, didn't teach us this way. They are all my friends. If you don't accept them, then there's no need for me to stay."

Huo Ling turned to leave, holding Lin Shuangshuang's hand tightly. Lin Shuangshuang couldn't help but smile and immediately followed. She didn't like this place either.

The three of them, including Lorna, were even more eager to leave.

The gossipy women seemed to only just realize what was happening, and immediately started blocking their way again.

"You two, father and son, both have the same bad temper. It's not that bad!"

"We're already at our doorstep, where else do you want to go?!"

"Do you want to make Grandma sad?"

"Ah Ling!"

"Ling'er!!"

Wen Jingshu also stepped in to smooth things over, "Alright, alright, they're all Xiaoling's friends. Don't be too harsh on the young people. These kids must have some special talents, which is why Xiaoling values ​​them."

She emphasized the phrase "extraordinary qualities," which made everyone suddenly realize the truth.

Yes.

This is not the end of the world; money is no longer everything.

Combat prowess is what matters.

The gossipy women suddenly remembered and couldn't help but suppress some of their disdain.

"Oh dear, look at us! We really didn't recognize your talent!"

"I've heard everyone's talking about superhumans and stuff these days. What level are those kids at?"

"We should ask what kind of ability it is, is it wood-based or fire-based?"

"Anyone with a metal-type ability? I saw other people's metal-type abilities include alchemy!"

"Really?!"

The gossipy women immediately started chattering away, their eyes filled with greed.

They blocked the doorway and wouldn't let them leave.

Huo Ling was extremely annoyed.

"Little one?!" A hoarse voice rang out, drawing everyone's attention.

Huo Ling was taken aback before turning to look at the old lady. The old lady was being helped downstairs by the nanny, and her eyes welled up with tears the moment she saw her eldest grandson.

"grandmother."

Huo Ling led Lin Shuangshuang toward the old man, and Luo Na and the other two immediately followed.

Old Madam Huo was in tears, repeatedly calling out to Huo Ling, "You're back? You couldn't bear to come back?! You're so inconsiderate! Are you alright? The weather outside has changed so much, and you still haven't come home. Who were you trying to worry us to death?!"

She grabbed Huo Ling and held on tightly, afraid that her eldest grandson would run away.

Lin Shuangshuang was stunned. Among all the people in the room, only the old lady was truly worried about Huo Ling. Her eyes were full of heartache and lingering fear as she kept saying that he was disobedient.

Luo Na's eyes were red. "This is what family is like..." Gao Lei handed her a tissue, and Wu Zhe's eyes also reddened. He also wanted this kind of family.

After the old lady expressed her concern and was persuaded by her aunts and uncles to calm down, Madam Huo finally calmed down.

Turning his head, he saw a few young people, but he didn't show any disgust.

Huo Ling introduced them to the elderly woman, "These are my friends and teammates: Luo Na, Gao Lei, and Wu Zhe. Grandma, this is my husband, Lin Shuangshuang."

His introduction was so smooth that when he said the word "lover," no one reacted, not even Lin Shuangshuang.

When the little monster realized what was happening, it couldn't help but turn its head sharply to look at Huo Ling, its eyes sparkling.

Huo Ling pursed her lips, turned her head, and gestured for her to introduce herself to her grandmother.

Lin Shuangshuang then turned around and said dryly, "Hello, Grandma, I'm Lin Shuangshuang."

The expressions on everyone's faces varied.

Madam Huo paused for a moment, carefully examined Lin Shuangshuang, then glanced at her eldest grandson before finally smiling, "Good, good, good."

You could tell she was dissatisfied, but she eventually gave in.

She took the bracelet off her wrist and held out her hand to the little girl, saying, "Child, come here."

Lin Shuangshuang looked at Huo Ling, puzzled.

Huo Ling raised an eyebrow at her and said, "Give your hand to Grandma, and Grandma will give you a gift."

Lin Shuangshuang then placed her hand on the old woman's hand. It was very warm. Her expression was very serious, as if she were performing some kind of handover ceremony.

Grandma Huo was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, revealing a genuine smile, "Good child."

Lin Shuangshuang smiled at her and said, "Thank you, Grandma. I like it very much."

The aunts and gossipy women all had different expressions.

Is it acceptable to give such an expensive bracelet to a wild girl?
