Finally the class comes to an end. After the scum teacher left, Bryan Huo desperately huddles up in the chair. Bryan Huo took a risk and called loudly, however, he didn't bring himself any help by doing so and he had no idea how he would be discussed by the servants. He was overwhelmed by the feeling of humiliation and powerlessness.

He hates this body more than ever. If he was a healthy and normal person, he can go to school and doesn't have to stay at home and endure the harassment of that pervert.

If he was a normal man, his father won't detest him so much...

Suddenly, the figure of Sach Xiang occurs to him again. He seems to be excellent, and he will surely be regarded highly by his father in the family company.

Bryan Huo's upset gradually turns into jealousy and envy.

After all, he is now still worried and anxious about the harassment that he cannot stop. It is better if there is no comparison. Otherwise, such psychological gap is almost unbearable for him.

*********

It is cold in the mornings and evenings of the autumn days. When Bryan Huo wakes up, he has a running nose and cold limbs. He goes downstairs to have breakfast dragging his feeble body.

He feels like having a cold.

Bryan Huo is in a trance, but not only because of the physical discomfort. Today is Wednesday, the day that the pervert teacher comes for class. How about call cancelling this class on the ground of physical discomfort? Although his father does not care about him, he has to get his permission for not taking a class.

...It turns out that father isn't at home. There are only Bryan Huo and Sach Xiang on the dining table.

"Father went out early in the morning." Seeing him looking around uneasily, Sach Xiang told him about this.

"Where has he gone?"

Bryan Huo stares at the plate and has no appetite at all. He doesn't want to talk to this man, but at the time being, finding his father is more important.

"To accompany my mother to the hospital." Sach Xiang replies lightly.

It is him that is the master of this home, yet he doesn't know anything. Even if Sach Xiang is in good manners and not aggressive at all, Bryan Huo can't help feeling bad.

"Are you feeling sick?"

"I'm having a cold. I want to call the class off."

Bryan Huo keeps staring at the plate. He answers stiffly without looking up. He not only wants to show momentum in front of Sach, but also wants to cover up his nervousness by acting impatiently. For the first time, he stays alone with Sach Xiang for this long.

"……"

Sach Xiang never asks why Bryan Huo won't go to school. Not even once. Presumably after moving in to this house, he has already heard rumors like "the young master is in a poor physical condition" and "he has tutors to teach him at home".

Father is a person who is extremely keen on face-saving. The secret about his body is carefully hidden at home. Only a few people know.

"Do you want to give him a call and tell him about it?"

Sach Xiang takes out his phone. His concerned tone agitates Bryan Huo even more. He stands up all of a sudden. There is a clunking sound coming out from the chair that is pulled away by him.

"There is something you probably don't know...He never picks up my phone when he's outside."

Bryan Huo says coldly and runs out of the dining hall. His anger is almost overflowing from the chest. It is not only because of his strange feelings about this man, but because the fact that he is forced to admit that he has been unloved by his father.

*********

Sach Xiang is struck dumb on the table for a while and then resumes a calm look, holding a touch of undetectable smile on his lips.

He picks up the cold breakfast of Bryan Huo and summons a maid.

"Can I borrow the kitchen?"

He explains in response to the confusion of the maid: "The younger master catches a cold so I want to make him a mild meal."

"How could you bother to do this? It's the servants' job."

"There's no so-called servant." Sach Xiang responds tenderly, "Everyone is equal and every career is meaningful and noble. Stop saying like that."

"Although...don't tell anyone that I borrow the kitchen."

He smiles so softly that it almost takes away the souls of others. The young maid nods her head sincerely and her face is flushed.
