At the rest area, naturally, no one from the Huo Family dared to ask, but upon arriving at the base, at the meeting the next day, someone couldn't help but speak up. Everyone noticed the damage at the corner of his mouth—it was just that with his cold and deathly demeanor, a single glance from him had everyone lowering their voices a notch.
Not until the leader came over and patted Huo Qinqi on the shoulder did someone finally speak, "Decided to come back, huh?"
He didn't respond.
"Yo—What happened to your mouth?"
The leader asked, and a bunch of people watched as if it were a show.
Huo Qinqi remained unruffled when questioned, not a trace of embarrassment on his face. He opened his mouth and simply said,
"My cat at home did it."
After he said this, everyone's expression read: You're kidding, right!
"You're keeping a cat now?"
"Just got one."
