He Xi's eyes were bloodshot, flames nearly bursting forth from the almond-shaped eyes he inherited from his biological parents.
His teeth clenched audibly; clearly, he was struggling to maintain the last bit of his waning rationality against his impending emotional collapse.
Although he managed to keep it in check, he was still full of questions.
Just as he was about to speak, He Tiantian preempted him with a tone of "frustration at unmet potential": "Dalang, are you confused?"
He Xi was momentarily stunned, the bloody hue in his eyes somewhat faded.
Confused?
How was he confused?
He had just entered the house and hadn't done anything yet. He had merely scolded his wife as usual; how could it seem like he had committed some outrageously foolish act?
He Xi pursed his lips and coldly watched his own mother, curious to see what else she would say.
"Do you know that Guo Erlang is returning to the Capital City?"
