Xu Huo didn't speak, taking a sip of his drink while watching the children running and playing in the courtyard from the window. One of the faster children carelessly bumped into a man coming out of the private room next door.
The adult was fine, but the child fell to the ground. However, he didn't cry, and instead got up and apologized to the man, "I'm sorry uncle, I bumped into you..."
Before he could finish, the man lifted him up with one hand, hoisting him in front of a face tattooed with a skull and said, "I hate annoying brats the most, whose bastard is this?"
A couple came out, dressed and behaving like they were either rich or noble. However, when facing the man, they tried to be a bit careful, "The child is ignorant, please don't take it to heart."
