Max Level Return—I'll Protect That Fragile One

Zheng Qin’s single ’no’, was like a needle piercing a balloon, instantly deflating it.

Huo Wen’an’s hands went limp, his feet hit the ground, and he held onto the single bar saying, "Let’s take a break."

Zheng Qin stifled a laugh.

Xu Xingguang said, "I’ll do thirty more and then rest."

Huo Wen’an: "..."

"Pilot!"

Huo Yunsheng suddenly pushed away Shenyin Cheng’s supporting hand, quickly walked over to Huo Wen’an, and directly kneeled in front of him on one knee.

Seeing this, Zheng Qin, who had just been joking with Huo Wen’an, instinctively stepped in front of Huo Wen’an to shield him from Huo Yunsheng. Zheng Qin’s face turned cold, and he scolded, "What are the guards doing! How did they let this walking virus in!"

Huo Yunsheng’s eyes were wide with anger, "Zheng Qin! How dare you speak to me like that, I am your pilot’s..."

"What are you to our pilot?" Zheng Qin interrupted Huo Yunsheng’s arrogant words with a half-smile, asking him, "Do you still think our pilot is your ungrateful eldest son? Do you think you can still flaunt your status as the pilot’s biological father and walk sideways on Divine Concealment Island?"

Huo Yunsheng had been Huo Wen’an’s father for nearly a decade and had grown accustomed to flaunting his biological father identity.

Offended by Zheng Qin, he instinctively wanted to use Huo Wen’an as leverage.

But as the words reached his lips, Huo Yunsheng realized that Huo Wen’an was no longer his son.

They were now brothers.

Huo Yunsheng’s sickly face looked pale and weak. After being humiliated by Zheng Qin, he was shamed and angry, turning red.

"In any case, I am the pilot’s elder brother."

Zheng Qin chuckled somewhat impudently and said, "In any case, I’m still the pilot’s little darling."

"Zheng Qin, what’s the point of talking so much with him." Huo Wen’an pushed Zheng Qin aside, looking down at Huo Yunsheng from above, asking him, "What are you here for?"

"Wen..." Huo Yunsheng hesitated and then corrected himself, calling out, "Little brother."

Huo Wen’an gave no reaction.

Zheng Qin couldn’t help but rub his goosebumps with his hands.

Huo Yunsheng finally understood the situation, realizing he couldn’t appeal to Huo Wen’an with familial ties, and could only honestly say, "Pilot, elder brother is here to apologize to you."

Huo Yunsheng babbled a lot.

It was clear that he had written a draft before coming and had taken the trouble to memorize it.

But after listening to his sincere-seeming apology, Huo Wen’an asked him, "Did you apologize to the First Lady?"

Huo Yunsheng froze, then explained in a low voice, "I will go shortly."

Nodding, Huo Wen’an said, "The person you’ve wronged the most is the First Lady, yet you came to apologize to me first. Why is that? Because I’m the pilot, and because you need my forgiveness to receive treatment."

"But you overlooked that when a sinner sincerely apologizes to the victim, they should first find the person they have hurt the most." After saying this, Huo Wen’an took the towel handed to him by Zheng Lie and wiped his sweat, saying to Huo Yunsheng, "Your apology draft is well-written, I’ll give you 99 points."

No more than that, lest he become complacent.

Huo Yunsheng was dumbfounded on the spot.

Seeing Huo Wen’an leaving with Xu Xingguang, Zheng Qin sneered at Huo Yunsheng, telling him, "Our pilot doesn’t care for your apology. He’s telling you to go apologize to the First Lady."

Huo Yunsheng gritted his teeth, kneeling for a moment before being supported by Shenyin Cheng and leaving the training ground to go to Xie Jinyun’s room.

At breakfast, Huo Canghai asked about the matter, "I heard Yunsheng went to the training ground to apologize to you?"

"Mm."

"Did you forgive him?"

Andariel raised an eyebrow, hearing Huo Wen’an say, "Does he deserve it? Why should I forgive someone who harmed me?"

Hearing this, Andariel felt relieved.

Both were his children, Huo Canghai loved Huo Wen’an enough to lay down his life for him. But he also loved his eldest son and couldn’t bear to see him die.

"Find a doctor to take a look at him." Huo Canghai said, "He is guilty, but not to the point of death."

Huo Wen’an understood Huo Canghai’s feelings and wouldn’t deliberately make things difficult for Huo Yunsheng. "I have already sent Ye Mingluo. However, it has to wait until he has apologized to the First Lady."

Whether the First Lady will forgive Huo Yunsheng is her business.

But Huo Yunsheng must apologize.

Knowing that Huo Wen’an had already instructed Ye Mingluo to treat Huo Yunsheng, Huo Canghai felt assured.

He didn’t want Huo Wen’an to misunderstand him, so he said, "Your Aunt Jiao’e has been a great support to me, with whom I have children. Though there is no love between us, we have supported each other as a couple. Yinting and Jiang He are very promising children, diligent from a young age, with aspirations and goals. Yunsheng is our first child, and we inevitably spoiled him somewhat."

"The way Yunsheng has turned out is partly my fault. As the saying goes, to spoil a child is to harm the child."

Huo Canghai looked at Huo Wen’an, speaking earnestly, "I am already old. In the future, your siblings will be your closest kin. Yinting and Jiang He have no ill intentions towards you, but no matter how confused Yunsheng may be, he is still their eldest brother."

"How you deal with Yunsheng, they will observe. Everyone understands you not forgiving Yunsheng, but allowing Ye Mingluo to treat him today shows your righteousness and kindness. In the future, when Yinting and Jiang He follow you and help manage the Huo Family’s business, there will be a greater sense of unity."

"Wen’an, you must know, in a big family, only when the direct lineage of children work together can they go further. The same applies to managing a family or a nation."

Huo Wen’an attentively listened to Huo Canghai’s heartfelt advice.

Apart from awakening the memories of Divine Hidden Crane, Huo Wen’an naturally understood the principles Huo Canghai was imparting.

Sending Ye Mingluo to treat Huo Yunsheng was aimed at showcasing his benevolence and tolerance to the Huo Family.

As a leader, one needs both fierceness to subdue and compassion to persuade; both are indispensable.

Yet he appreciated hearing Huo Canghai impart such worldly wisdom from the standpoint of an old father.
