"Mr. Tianqi is ill," Shen Li said, not knowing what Huo Siyu would think, so she changed the subject.
She still had to tell Huo Siyu about Huo Tianqi's illness.
"Ill?" Huo Tianqi's face showed a surprised expression and he said, "He can get sick?"
"Uh... everyone gets sick," Shen Li responded.
She really didn't want to scoff, but she couldn't help it.
Huo Siyu's tone was full of points to complain about.
This was the so-called sacrificial tragedy, in the uncle-nephew relationship between Huo Siyu and Huo Tianqi; Huo Tianqi had always been the one giving, while Huo Siyu took it for granted.
When the giver gives too much, the beneficiary starts to see it as their due.
That's why now, with Huo Tianqi ill, Huo Siyu's first reaction wasn't to worry or to rush to see him.
Instead, he was surprised that someone who had always revolved around him, who saw him as their entire world, could actually get sick.
"Is it serious?" Huo Siyu asked, not looking very concerned.
