Starry sky, I can hear their secrets.

"Oh dear, you had a nightmare, didn't you? What kind of nightmare did you have? Tell me about it."

Huo Huo let out a soft groan, a little embarrassed: "I dreamt... I dreamt I got married, and my husband was you..."

Su Jinyan: "?"

Did you dream about marrying me and then wake up in a fright? What kind of nightmare is that? Am I that scary?

Huo Huo continued in a low voice, "Then, then I was sentenced to death by Lord Xueyi and Lord Hanya."

Su Jinyan: "..."

Huo Huo tugged at his sleeve, looking pitiful.

"Uncle Su, please don't sentence me to death, okay? I'll behave myself."

Su Jinyan flicked Huo Huo's forehead: "Idiot, are you still going to call me Grandpa Su?"

Huo Huo paused for a moment, her face slightly flushed, and she stammered, "H-husband...?"

Su Jinyan raised her hand to her forehead; this child was beyond saving.

No matter what, he had spent some time with Huo Huo, and their relationship was indeed getting closer.

But he still couldn't get Huo Huo to call him "Dad," which made him doubt his own parenting skills.

Could it really be that there's something wrong with my parenting style? Su Jinyan was completely baffled.

......

After Su Jinyan led Huo Huo's soft little hand out of the room.

Xueyi and Hanya both secretly cast resentful glances at him.

During this period, Su Jinyan was only focused on spending time with his adopted daughter Huo Huo and cherishing their relationship, neglecting their feelings.

They understand why they spend time with Huo Huo during the day, since Huo Huo has been treated coldly by her family and needs comfort and companionship.

However, Su Jinyan also had to watch horror movies with Huo Huo at night and coax her to sleep, which Xueyi and the others found hard to accept.

Are you really treating Huo Huo like a daughter and trying to coax her?

Everyone can see what Huo Huo is thinking. Are you the only one pretending not to understand?

Huo Huo couldn't help but shiver and cowered behind Su Jinyan.

Will the nightmare I had last night come true?

Ugh, absolutely, absolutely I can't reveal my true feelings for Master Su in front of Xueyi and Lord Hanya.

Otherwise, he might really be sentenced to death!

Xueyi said, "Ayan, half an hour ago, Huohuo's father came to our door."

"I've told him to wait at Suiyuan. Should I have him come over?"

The crow's expression was cold: "That guy wants to apologize to Huo Huo in person and take her home to stay for a while."

They say one thing to your face and another behind your back; it's disgusting.

As much as Xueyi and Hanya liked Huo Huo, they also hated Huo Huo's family.

Huo Huo was taken aback: "Huh?"

I don't know why, but in the past, if Huo Huo had heard that her father was coming to pick her up, she would have been so happy that she couldn't sleep.

But upon hearing this news, Huo Huo felt no emotion whatsoever.

Huo Huo didn't want to meet her biological father from the bottom of her heart.

These days, Huo Huo has been very happy with Su Jinyan.

The relationship between the two grew stronger, and Su Jinyan felt to Huo Huo both like her father and like someone she could entrust her life to.

Huo Huo bit her lip sadly. Why...?

Why did my father have to interfere just when our relationship was blossoming?

Su Jinyan waved his hand and said, "Do you think he can just see my Huo Huo whenever he wants?"

“He’s been patient enough to wait this long, so it won’t hurt to leave him waiting a little longer.”

"Huo Huo, what do you think?"

Huo Huo timidly tugged at his sleeve, signaling Su Jinyan to squat down and whisper something to him.

Su Jinyan squatted down in front of Huo Huo, her beautiful eyes narrowed by Xueyi and Hanya.

Huo Huo whispered, "I, I'll listen to you. You can decide."

"Our relationship is already like this, there's no need to ask for my opinion..."

Su Jinyan: "..."

It feels like I'm raising Huo Huo in a way that's making her more and more distorted.

She doesn't seem like a dutiful daughter at all; instead, she seems like a hardworking and devoted concubine.

......

For ordinary people on the Immortal Ship, their only chance to come into contact with the Ten Kings' Office in their lifetime is to be guided to the Hall of Cause and Effect by the underworld messengers before their time is up.

Of course, Huo Huo's family is an exception.

Huo Huo kindly saved Sui Yang, who was on the verge of death, but was also devoured by Sui Yang.

A passerby who happened to be passing by immediately reported the matter to the Earthly Balance Office, which then forwarded it to the Ten Kings Office.

The Ten Kings received a distress call, and the crow was ordered to patrol, where it found the fox-person Huo Huo who was about to be devoured by Sui Yang.

Seeing that the little girl was young and frail, and that Sui Yang was no ordinary person, the crow knew that if they tried to forcibly remove her, it would surely result in her death.

In desperation, the crow had no choice but to write a talisman and subdue the sun god at the tail of the crow.

Considering Huo Huo's young age, Han Ya made an exception and did not immediately take Huo Huo in, but instead let Huo Huo go home and live a normal life.

However, both Huo Huo's family and classmates showed obvious disgust and resistance towards Huo Huo, this outcast among the fox people.

Soon, young Huo Huo was ostracized and bullied by her classmates because "her tail looked like it was on fire".

Once a fragment of the Great Sun Blaze, he was short-tempered, arrogant, and couldn't stand Huo Huo's crying.

They could not tolerate Huo Huo being ostracized by her classmates because of it.

Under the persuasion of the tail, Huo Huo peeled off the talisman on the tail, and the tail successfully possessed Huo Huo's body, giving the classmates who bullied Huo Huo a good beating.

However, after this incident, Huo Huo's family also developed a fear of her.

Huo Huo's parents were afraid that Huo Huo would bring misfortune to the family, so they severed their parent-child relationship with Huo Huo early on.

Since Huo Huo was sent to the Ten Kings' Division, they have never seen her again, not even through letters.

It is difficult for normal people to understand their ignorance.

Su Jinyan intends to teach these incredibly foolish and profit-driven idiots a lesson on behalf of Huo Huo.

Huo Huo's father waited anxiously in Suiyuan for several hours, but Huo Huo did not appear. He couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

Huo Huo is still his daughter, after all. She is well-behaved and sensible. Surely he shouldn't be denied even a chance to see her?

Just as Huo Huo's father was growing increasingly impatient, a ghostly green flame suddenly approached him.

"Oh, it's you, you old codger."

"So many years have passed, how come you're still alive?"

Its tail licked at Huo Huo's father's face, making a mocking gesture.

Huo Huo's father looked terrified and scrambled backward, shouting, "Ah! Something dirty?!"

"You, you stay away! This is the territory of the Ten Kings' Division!"

The tail retorted angrily, "You motherfucker, believe me or not I'll eat you!"

“You are a useless piece of trash who blames your misfortune and failure on your daughter.”

"How can someone blame their daughter instead of holding the bullies accountable after their daughter has been bullied?"

Faced with an incomprehensible and unknown fear, Huo Huo's father dared not refute her, even though he was angry.

Huo Huo's father could only nod sheepishly, "Yes, yes, you're right."

"I'm useless, I'm just a worthless piece of trash..."

"It's all my fault. If you had eaten Huo Huo back then, none of this would have happened."

Tail's voice suddenly rose an octave: "What the hell are you talking about?"

Huo Huo's father was terrified. He had already tried to please the monster, so why was the monster getting angry?

Originally, Weiba thought Su Jinyan's plan to torment Huo Huo's father was somewhat malicious.

Looking back now, I was too lenient. This guy is unworthy of being a father; he deserves to be tortured.

Tail cleared his throat: "You old geezer, listen to me carefully."

"Our Lord Su said that if you want to see Huo Huo, it's not impossible."

"But you must first complete a trial. Only by passing the trial can you see Huo Huo."
