Douluo Continent: Reborn as Yuhao, they all have ulterior motives.

Chapter 366 I'll spank your ass until it's bruised and battered.

It felt like having a nightmare.

Despite the seemingly joyous scene of everyone enjoying themselves, with smiles on their faces and conversations flowing freely, Huo Yuhao had a strange feeling that he was not far from death.

Don't panic! Huo Yuhao, it's especially important not to panic in moments like these.

Even if you die, you have to pretend that you died innocently!

Trying to reassure himself, Huo Yuhao tried to minimize his presence while his hands trembled as he tried to grab the glass in front of him.

However, it wasn't until he put the straw in his mouth that he realized he had drunk all the juice inside.

Just as he was at a loss, a clear, ethereal voice, like heavenly music, rang in his ears.

"Give."

As if sensing his embarrassment, a fair hand came into view, and a full glass of juice was handed to him.

"Uh? Thank you."

Huo Yuhao was taken aback for a moment, then nodded gratefully.

Huo Yuhao couldn't help but sigh with admiration when he thought that Gu Yuena had not only saved his mother Huo Yun'er in time, but had also considered such a small matter.

As expected, Gu Yuena is still the most reliable.

However, just as he put the straw to his lips, ready to slurp it down, he was surprised to find that there seemed to be a familiar scent lingering on the straw.

Hmm, and there's also a faint, slightly cool, crystalline quality.

!! ?

As if finally realizing something, Huo Yuhao's body suddenly stiffened, and he abruptly turned his head to look at the silver-haired girl beside him.

"What's wrong? Doesn't it taste good?"

Taking in Huo Yuhao's twitching face and terrified eyes, Gu Yuena blinked her purple eyes innocently, her tone tinged with confusion.

"I just tasted both of them, and they should taste the same as yours."

I beg you, please stop talking!

If this continues, I'm really going to die!

Huo Yuhao felt a deep sorrow in his heart.

But at this moment, even if he wanted to make amends, it was too late, because at some point, the once lively dinner table had become completely silent.

From that deathly silence, a series of gazes, some jealous and some resentful, were fixed on him, making him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.

goo-dong-

Huo Yuhao's throat bobbed with difficulty, and his brain began to work at an unprecedented speed. Every brain cell was burning wildly, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind almost every moment.

They were desperately trying to find a glimmer of hope in this seemingly certain death.

However, no matter how hard he tried to think, all the solutions he came up with pointed to the same outcome.

He probably, possibly, should.

Is he going to die?

Clinging to his last glimmer of hope, Huo Yuhao looked pleadingly at his mother, hoping that Huo Yun'er would spare him trouble out of the slightest bit of blood ties they shared.

Noticing her son's pitiful gaze, Huo Yun'er's eyelids twitched.

That brat, when he was out flirting with other women, did he never think this day would come? Now he's scared?

It's really a shame that he not only stole so many cabbages, but also dared to bring them all to me at once, completely oblivious to his own mortality.

But no matter what, this guy is still her precious son, and she can't just stand by and watch him get hurt because of emotional debts.

Moreover, after the initial shock, her mind gradually became more active.

So what if she has more daughters-in-law? Doesn't that just prove her son is charming?

You know, even if other people's pigs wanted to graze on so many cabbages, they wouldn't have the right to!

She was satisfied with everyone present. As Huo Yuhao's parent and a mature adult, she wanted them all!

Thinking of this, Huo Yun'er coughed lightly twice, first picking up some food for Tang Ya beside her, before asking curiously.

"Speaking of which, many of you here must be older than Yuhao, right? I wonder how you all met Yuhao and became friends?"

She was naturally referring to Ma Xiaotao and the others whom she was meeting for the first time. After all, Qiu'er, Tang Ya, and Jiang Nannan all lived under the same roof as her, and they knew each other quite well.

However, what Huo Yun'er thought was a casual question turned into a rather unsettling reaction from the group.

Ma Xiaotao blushed as if she had recalled some unspeakable memory.

"Well, this..."

What was she supposed to say?

In front of someone's mother, you say that your son is helpful and helped me suppress my lust all night, allowing me to see everything I should and shouldn't have seen.

Ling Luochen, standing to the side, also instinctively lowered his head, his situation not much better than that of his mortal enemy.

The thought that her original intention was to help Huo Yuhao escape Ma Xiaotao's clutches left her unsure how to answer the question.

You can't exactly say you couldn't stand seeing your son being brutally exploited in bed by a bad woman, so you stepped in to help, can you?

Ye Guyi was the most normal of the three, but she was too embarrassed to tell Huo Yun'er that she did this to severely punish the inherently evil King of Evil Souls and to maintain world peace.

If I say that, won't her mom think I'm crazy?

Amidst the stammering voices, Huo Yun'er's expression gradually became subtle.

Why do you all have that expression?

What on earth did my son do with you?!

Why is it that Zhang Lexuan, who's also an older sister, seemed so much more serious than you guys back then?

"Um, well, if it's inconvenient to say, then never mind."

Suppressing the strange emotions in her heart, Huo Yun'er glanced at Huo Yuhao, who also looked embarrassed, and then looked at Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, Zhu Lu and Nan Qiuqiu who were huddled together.

"And you?"

Fortunately, these four did not encounter a situation similar to that of Ma Xiaotao and the others. After exchanging bewildered glances, Xiao Xiao gave a shy smile and offered her explanation.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"In a way, we became friends after a fight."

"Oh?"

Huo Yun'er's eyes lit up slightly: "Could you elaborate?"

"There's nothing particularly noteworthy, except that during the freshman assessment, Dong'er and I were matched against the team composed of Yuhao and Zhulu. After the assessment, we were reassigned to the same class, and that's how we gradually got to know each other."

At this point, Xiao Xiao seemed to remember something, and the smile on her face became even stranger.

"Speaking of which, someone actually got tickled by Yuhao."

Before she could finish speaking, Wang Dong'er, her face flushed, covered her mouth.

"Ah! Xiao Xiao, you're not allowed to say that!"

"Fine, we'll say it. Who told you to be so shy?"

Watching the two making a ruckus, Huo Yun'er couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile. Suddenly, she turned her head and looked at Huo Yuhao beside her with a half-smile.

"Yuhao, is it true that tickling is real?"

"Uh, cough cough."

Feeling the look of his mother as if she were looking at a pervert, Huo Yuhao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and racked his brains to explain.

"I only did that to avoid hurting Dong'er, so I had no other choice."

However, before he could finish explaining, Nan Qiuqiu, who was standing to the side, spoke up in a pitiful tone, as if she had finally found a backer.

"Auntie, I lost to Yuhao in the Soul Master Competition in Mingdu, and my mother sent me to learn from him."

"I see."

Huo Yun'er was stunned for a moment, clearly unable to understand why Nan Qiuqiu's mother would send her to Huo Yuhao's side.

Even though she was a little confused, she knew it wasn't the right thing to ask. After thinking for a moment, a look of relief appeared on her face.

"By the way, did Yuhao take advantage of you? If he did, tell Auntie, and Auntie will teach him a lesson for you."

"Thank you, Auntie!"

Nan Qiuqiu's face immediately lit up with a smile, and her eyes unconsciously glanced at Huo Yuhao, her expression one of extreme smugness.

Helpless, Huo Yuhao put on a harmless and friendly smile, but inwardly he was muttering to himself.

That wretched Nan Qiuqiu, she actually dared to complain to my mom! Wait till we get back to the Spirit Pagoda, I'll give her a good spanking!
