Huo Jingtang calmly revealed that Lele was Huo Jingfeng's child, a child of the Huo Family. This news was even more shocking than the revelation that Huo Jingfeng had taken Jiang Shuya.
Everyone froze as if they had been struck by a paralysis spell, the sound of the world vanished, leaving only the repeated echo in their ears: Lele was Huo Jingfeng's child, a child of the Huo Family. The interwoven pain tightly clung to their hearts, choking them as they tried to speak but found themselves unable to utter a single word.
Huo Tianshan clenched his teeth and closed his eyes tightly, his already aged face covered with pain and sorrow. He was like a towering giant who, in this moment, had fallen.
Like Huo Tianshan, Ruan Lifen felt nothing but helplessness at the way things had unfolded, which had far exceeded their capacity to endure.
But there was also a sense of relief because, at least, Lele was a child of the Huo Family.
