Chapter 169: Chapter 169; How dare you talk to me like that?
After a few minutes, his dear sister was done showering and messily dried her hair up, she opened the door and her huge hazel eyes gazed at her brother, he warmly smiled at her reassuring her that everything was okay now.
Tang Ning moved out of the bathroom door leaving it open with a bathrobe she wore she had gotten inside there, and even though it was a little bit larger, it was okay so long as it covered her.
Tang Ying walked over and got closer to her, held her left hand and carefully dragged her over to the bed covered with pink bedsheets letting her sit down before assisting her in drying her hair with the towel, after a few minutes, it felt dry, he got her pyjamas that were pink in colour from his bed he had placed on and passed them over to her, it was a long-sleeved shirt and pants.
She received them and nodded at her brother smiling at him. They didn’t need to say any word between them, they were tactical and already used to these eyes and silent communication.
Seeing she was okay, he picked up another clean towel and went over to the bathroom letting her dress up first while he took a shower.
He was faster and swift compared to his sister, in four minutes, he was done showering and even cleaned it up, he had low-cut hair and wasn’t that difficult to clean and dry it.
He wrapped the towel around his body from the shoulders covering his entire body before going over to the room for his pyjamas and went back inside the washroom to dress up.
After wearing it, he strode out leaving the towel on the towel rack, he walked over to the bedroom and cleared Tang Ning’s bathrobe and towel placing them on the towel rack.
His sister was already lying on the bed, so he sat down accompanying her while he gently tapped her to sleep. It was a simple gesture, but with the way he did it, you could tell it wasn’t the first time, it was something he was used to doing.

Nanny Wei had gone back to the kitchen, warmed a portion of food and served the Old Man who was settled at the dining table.
"And you, have you eaten?" Old Master Huo curiously inquired eying her. The house slightly felt cold and devoid of warmth, it was like everyone minded his/her own business. Even having food, it looked like everyone could eat on his own time.
"I did a few minutes ago! You can enjoy your dinner..." After serving him, the soldiers who had come over with Huo Shen settled down to also eat. Nanny Wei had cooked a lot of food, so no one was going to miss on.
"Ooohh..." At that moment, a soldier walked over to the entrance door, and because of the culture of changing shoes, he didn’t step into the mansion as it would delay him to remove and put them on.
"Nanny Wei, Old Master Huo, Mr President is at the door requesting entry into the mansion!" He notified them from the entrance door of the mansion as he stood there facing them.
Huo Shen had instructed his gate guards never to allow anyone to get into his compound without his consent, they had to consult him before doing anything.
"What are you waiting for? Let him in! Hurry up! And he doesn’t need anyone’s permission so that he can get into the compound." Old Master Huo hurriedly spoke up almost getting choked up with food. His earlier gloomy face immediately cheered up hearing his other son had come over.
"Don’t let him in, he can go over to the Old Huo mansion. My home isn’t welcoming anyone at this hour." A cold voice echoed from the stairs as Huo Shen leisurely descended. He was wearing his usual jade face mask and changed clothes, it was black khaki pants and a dark blue long-sleeved official shirt.
He wanted to have a virtual meeting with the executives of the Company, and then make a few international calls here and there, and then the military Lieutenant Generals to know how they have prepared themselves for the coming day before checking upon Wei Wei and calling it a day!
"What do you mean by that? Let him in, is this your mansion? You do know that’s your brother asking for permission to enter into his home instead of coming in, this is his home too, don’t forget it!" Old Master Huo roughly banged the dining table feeling irritated.
Luckily, it was made of mahogany wood or else the glass table decor would have shattered along with the glass plates and the water glasses that were placed on the table.
"I said, don’t let him into my house! This house you had gifted my mother, she gave it to me personally, so, you don’t tell me what to do with it and who I need to let in... So, he better not step foot in..." Huo Shen was no longer polite towards them.
Every moment he gazed at this man, he could only see fire that had burnt his mother down to ashes, he had avoided getting entangled with him for the latter part of his life, but now, it seemed like he couldn’t pretend anymore. He didn’t want them in his life any longer.
"How dare you talk to me like that? Huo Shen, we are your family, I’m your father! We are the ones who can be there for you! How can you be so rude? Does it have to get down to that level?" He lost his appetite and stood up shoving the dining chair backwards roughly with the back of his legs.
It screeched falling over to the side, that loud bang annoyed Huo Shen irritating him.
His wrinkles had deepened showcasing how angry he was, his eyes were sharp and glaring. He no longer had any appetite left.
