Chapter 76: I Am Useless Chapter 76: I Am Useless
When Tong Yu finally saw Huo Xiang react, he was unperturbed. He seemed accustomed to the way Huo Xiang spoke, with rage in his voice. Tong Yu handed him the glass of water.
Then he said heavy heartedly, “Huo Xiang, how long are you going to continue living like this?”
Huo Xiang stared at the ceiling. Suddenly, his downcast eyes swiftly changed their expression and became as still as dead water.
A long while later, he said bitterly, “I can’t perform anymore, and it’s as good as getting a death sentence. I’m useless now. Don’t you get it?”
Tong Yu parted his lips. He was speechless as he could only sympathize with Huo Xiang.
He had almost single-handedly groomed Huo Xiang. Huo Xiang was exceptionally talented whether it was music production, song, or dance. It was as though Huo Xiang was born for the stage.
It must have come as a deadly shock for someone as proud as Huo Xiang to hurt his spine during an accident.
“Huo Xiang, don’t give up. Medicine is really advanced these days, so someone is bound to be able to fix your injury,” said Tong Yu with a dry feeling in his throat.
There was nothing else he could do except comfort him.
“Heh...” Huo Xiang laughed gently. Then he closed his eyes and turned his head to the side without saying another word to Tong Yu.
Tong Yu smiled weakly before placing the glass of water on the bedside table. He raised his head and gathered his thoughts before turning for the door.
But he recalled what Huo Yao had told him before he left the Huos, so he halted.
He tilted his head to the side and said softly, “Your baby sister has a message for you. Your mother went grocery shopping first thing in the morning and bought all your favorite things.”
A few seconds later, Tong Yu seemed to come to a decision and continued. “Huo Xiang, I don’t ever want to help you lie to your parents again... Also, I didn’t tell your little sister that you weren’t going back tonight. It’s up to you whether to go or not. I’m off now.”
The sound of the door shutting came from the doorway.
It became very quiet in the room. Almost eerily quiet.
Huo Xiang opened his eyes. There was a complicated look in his eyes as he clenched his fists tightly. Then he pulled up the blanket in frustration and covered even his head with it.
Ten minutes later.
Huo Xiang suddenly lifted the blanket and sat up. Then he cursed softly before finally getting off the bed.
***
At 8:00 pm
Song Ning sat on the couch and checked the wall clock while she glanced at the door once again. Although she did not say a word, her anxiety was visibly evident.
Huo Yao sat lazily beside her on the couch. Her eyes and fingers were busy playing on her phone.
“Yaoyao, you must be famished. Why don’t you go ahead and eat?” Song Ning said as she turned around to look at her obedient daughter.
Huo Yao put away her phone and said casually, “Maybe Brother Xiang is caught up with work and won’t be coming tonight.”
Song Ning only smiled and shook her head with a look of certainty. She said, “Although Xiang is usually too busy to come home, he never lies. If his agent said he would come today, then he would definitely turn up.”
If Huo Xiang was intending to come home, he would not have sent gifts with his agent.
There was a calm look on Huo Yao’s face. She wanted to say more but when she saw the confidence Song Ning had in Huo Xiang, she chose to stay quiet.
The doorbell rang before long.
“It must be Xiang,” said Song Ning as she quickly stood up to answer the door.
Huo Yao raised her brows. There was a look of surprise in her bright and beautiful eyes.
