Chapter 153: Chapter 153; If we sit here...
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
While walking out of the fields they came across the Murram road that would take them out of that place over to the sub highway, maybe from there, they would find their way back home but didn’t know for how long they were going to walk.
Huo Dong has been quiet this entire time trying to think and digest his miseries! He was already embarrassed and didn’t know how these people walking around him felt, would they still respect him as a President? What kind of a bad image was his brother trying to portray?
His police guards weren’t present, the only person that came along was his secretary and the housemaids... How unfortunate! He didn’t even know what crime they committed for them to be held up for so long like this! He left them without a single explanation.
Huo Yan and his sister were wobbling along the murram road nervous! What they have witnessed today was more than horror! They watched Su Qing being relentlessly tortured and they couldn’t say a word to defend her whatsoever.
They were nothing in Huo Shen’s eyes and they knew that, but why was he being this horrifying? All this time, they didn’t dare to utter even a single word and neither question Huo Shen! They didn’t want to irritate him further...
"Why were we even arrested?" The various family members were curious inquiring as their murmurs echoed, they had just gotten abducted and brought here without any explanations and they had just been left to fend for their lives just like that. How did they offend this man?
They had just spoken up their worries when a pack of wolves howled from their backs as they were walking along the Murram road leisurely having a chat here and there. They didn’t want to hurry and exhaust themselves.
But when they heard that angry howl, they immediately got on their toes running as fast as they could as the pack of wolves came out of the forest over to the Murram road and trailed behind them at speed.
Everyone was running at a fast speed, and even those old men couldn’t be left behind, they were also supported by their sons and daughters as they ran for their lives.
Nobody wanted to become their meal this afternoon, thus, they hastened!
After seeing they had run a distance and the wolves weren’t behind them, they sat down to hold some breath! Their legs’ joints were cracking as they took a seat down at the sides of the Murram road that had grass.
"If we sit here... They might catch up..." Huo Dong was exhausted after that short run and he was breathing so heavily, but sitting down was like shortening the distance between themselves and the wolves and it wasn’t an option, if they delayed, those hungry wolves would soon catch up to them, without further thoughts, he and Huo Ting progressed hurrying forward.
All others immediately got up and trailed behind them in a hurry. At that moment, another wolf ran in front of them carrying a carcass with its front teeth, it halted in the middle way turning its head and gazed at them before crossing to the other side planning to place the carcass down and hunt for a new meal.
Seeing all this happening in front of them, they quickly ran forward without looking back, it was better to outrun this one than rush back to the pack of wolves behind them which was around thirty.
Huo Yan’s legs were crumbling, her eyes couldn’t stop from tearing, she had never undergone such kind of torture in her life. She was out of breath but still ran forward without delaying her brother who was holding her hand.
Moving across this huge forest seemed that danger was lurking all over the place ready to attack them, at the slightest pause, they might be attacked and breathing became a chore.
No wonder Huo Shen let them go! Were they going to survive through this entire ordeal? Things seemed to be rougher than they expected. They ran forward without gazing at their backs. The front was better than the back.

"Nanny Wei? How come you are alone?" Nanny Wei had just arrived back at the Huo mansion and the Old man was up and watering the flowers in the backyard.
These were Huo Shen’s favourite flowers and so were his mother’s. He had created a greenhouse to shelter and cultivate them as they were delicate.
"Oooh! I just went out for some errands, did you get any food that was placed inside the fridge?" She had a warm smile on her face and hid her worries away. It was a difficult situation that she was unable to explain to anyone.
"Yeah! I did..."
"I heard that you got seriously sick yesterday, I was wondering why we don’t have any maids and I thought you might have gone out with them..." He had noticed a lot of changes around the mansion. Even the flowers were different. A lot of things had been cleared out.
It’s been almost two or three years he hasn’t stopped by this mansion, without Huo Shen around here, he didn’t have any reason to visit it.
"They were fired by Master Huo, he knows the reasons! I will make your afternoon tea..." Nanny Wei strolled over into the mansion walking over to the kitchen. She didn’t want to explain what had been going on around the mansion.
Someone had actually plotted to kill her and blame it on Wei Wei, how cunning were they?
She was worried but could only wait until Huo Shen returned to know how Su Wei Wei was fairing and explain things to his father!
Old Master Huo eyed her slightly frowning! He felt the atmosphere around the compound wasn’t jolly anymore, it slightly felt stifling. From the moment he woke up, he didn’t find anyone around the compound apart from the several soldiers who strolled around, and the security measures had been also enhanced.
