IACF [QT] Chapter 94.2

A team of guards came down from the flying ship in neat steps, and in the blink of an eye, the two of them were surrounded tightly.

Originally, when he saw the flying ship appear, Huo Jun was tense and ready to go, but when he heard Su Yi instructing him to grill the meat, he paused for a moment, then picked up the tools again, and continued what he had just done.

As the meat was being grilled, perhaps influenced by Su Yi’s nonchalant attitude, he also relaxed and was in the mood to chat.

“Do you want to guess which big shot it is?”

Su Yi stared at the meat slices intently, only giving him a little glance from the corner of her eye, and said quite reasonably, “To be honest, I have already guessed your situation, but I just pretended not to know because you didn’t mean to mention it.”

Huo Jun was stunned again when he heard this, and then he said with a smile, “Then I have to thank you for saving my face.”

As he spoke, his hands did not stop moving. He put the cooked meat slices on a plate and handed it to Su Yi.

Su Yi couldn’t wait to take the first bite. The rich aroma of fat and the tenderness of gravy melted in her mouth. The meat was plump and firm, without any fishy smell. It was truly worthy of the word ‘essence’ as Huo Jun had said.

She finished a piece herself, stuffed a bite for Huo Jun, and then asked, “It doesn’t look like they’re going to do anything. It looks like they want to ask you to go. Do you want to go?”

Just after she finished speaking, a person came down from one of the flying ships.

Su Yi originally thought that he was a key figure, but after taking a closer look, she found that the other party was at most the leader of this group of guards, but he put on a very pretentious attitude.

Huo Jun didn’t even look at the man. He just asked Su Yi, “Do you think I should go?”

Su Yi said truthfully, “If you don’t want to go, these people may not be able to invite you. However, if they fail, there will be others who will come.”

Huo Jun is very strong now, but he is not strong enough to do whatever he wants on his own. After all, in the face of absolute power, the power of a single person still seems insignificant.

Su Yi may be able to do whatever she wants, and even kill the scumbag emperor to solve Huo Jun’s problem from the root, but she will not do so.

In her eyes, the emperor is not a person, but a machine to maintain the stability of the empire and protect the lives of the people. She can despise him, call him a scumbag, and complain that he has holes in his brain, but in any case, she will not plunge the entire empire into turmoil and treat the survival of countless people as a joke for her own selfish desires.

The last person to come down from the flying ship finally spoke and said in an arrogant tone that someone wanted to see Huo Jun.

The two people still ignored him.

Huo Jun said, “Do you want to go with me?”

Su Yi shrugged lightly, “Why not? Actually, think positively. You are the one who will benefit the most from this trip. Since he wants to see you, it means he has plans to recognize you. By then, your status will be greatly different.”

“I don’t care.” Huo Jun was a little indifferent.

Su Yi stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth and said, “Young man, don’t be so stubborn. Sometimes you can take advantage of the situation and go with the flow. You have relied on yourself to get to where you are today. Who can deny your own ability?”

“But in the future, you have to fight alone, which is much more difficult than before. The most important point is, if you only rely on yourself, how long do you need to fight to reject the situation like today?”

Huo Jun was silent for a while.

Su Yi added: “This is not a sign of weakness, nor is it something to be ashamed of. It is just a strategy. You can grow by taking advantage of his momentum until you have enough strength to compete with him.”

“This does not mean you can just sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labor. If you do not make corresponding efforts and do not have the strength to live up to the expectations, even if you are pushed to the throne, you will be pulled down by others sooner or later.”

The people waiting on the side were obviously getting impatient, but they had to continue standing there due to the order.

Huo Jun thought for a long time and said, “Then, let’s go and have a look?”

Su Yi nodded, “Since it’s hard to refuse, let’s go and see what he’s up to. Business requires mutual consent, let alone recognizing a father. If you don’t want to care about him, let’s go when we get there.”

Huo Jun looked at her pitifully and said, “If I get stuck in there, remember to rescue me.”

Su Yi squinted at him and said, “Are our roles reversed? I can rescue you if you want me to, but you should call me Dad first.”

“…”

Huo Jun couldn’t help but hold his forehead and ponder: Why did he have to call her dad when the roles were reversed? Did she always want to call him dad?!
