Chapter 294: Giving Way to Huo Jiuxiao unconditionally
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When Huo Yutan’s mother returned home, she kept recalling the truth of the miscarriage in her mind. At that time, the Huo brothers hadn’t fought to the death yet. Moreover, Yun Shujing had been hidden somewhere else by Huo Qingxiao, and the Huo family didn’t know of her existence.
At that time, she was more than five months pregnant and it was summer. Because it was her first child and the brothers often fought openly and secretly, her pregnancy was not smooth from the beginning. The fetus was in a low position, and she had seen blood a few times. Even though she had been in bed for two months, it did not improve.
She remembered that it was the retired butler who had rushed to her that day and told her that Lu Ziyun, Huo Jiuxiao’s biological mother, was going to sue her husband for stealing company secrets and technology. In a hurry, she dragged her ailing body to Lu Ziyun’s company and argued with her for a while. Then, she had a miscarriage and went into confinement.
At that time, she hated Lu Ziyun very much, but later, her husband explained to her that Lu Ziyun did not say anything about complaining. It was the butler who misinformed her.
At that time, she was young and impetuous. In addition, many things happened to the Huo brothers later. She did not have time to think about it, so the hatred was transferred to Huo Yu’an. It was only in recent years that it was resolved.
If what her husband had said back then was true, and Huo Jiuxiao’s reminder today was also true, then the butler at that time was very suspicious.
“An, do you still have Butler Qin’s contact information?” Mrs. Huo took out her phone and called Huo Yu’an.
“Mom, why did you suddenly think of contacting Butler Qin?”
“I have some old matters to ask him.”
Seven o’clock at night, Yujing Peak.
Huo Jiuxiao brought Lin Wanli back home. As soon as he closed the door, they started kissing in the garden.
Youran was at Yue Group, so there were only the two of them at home now, so they could release their yearning to their hearts’ content.
After falling from the clouds, his mind became clear. Huo Jiuxiao wrapped Lin Wanli in his shirt and carried her to the bedroom.
Lin Wanli wrapped her arms around Huo Jiuxiao’s neck and asked in her heart.
[Aren’t you going to see your daughter?]
“Take a shower first.”
[Old Lady Lin has left. Mother has already gone to the crematorium to help.
She’s going to bury her tomorrow morning.]
“I’ll go with you.”
Now, he could do it openly.
Lin Wanli leaned against his firm chest and took a deep breath, as if she was afraid that this was a dream. Especially when the two of them were soaking in the bathtub. In the dense fog, she felt that it was even more surreal.
[Master, I’m a little out of breath.]
Huo Jiuxiao stood up and placed his lips on hers, trying to calm her down. “Little Sweet Wife, if you want to kiss me, just say so.”
[Now, the entire Jinchuan is talking about how shameless I am and how I slept with you in such a despicable way. Tomorrow, there will definitely be a bunch of reporters attacking me with their guns and cannons.]
“Yes, I will tell them that I was willing to sleep with you.”
The two of them spent some time in the bathroom. Seeing that it was getting late, they drove to Yue Group.
Lin Xueyi went to the crematorium. At this time, only Seventh Aunt was accompanying Youran.
Lin Wanli carried her heavy daughter to Huo Jiuxiao. The little girl didn’t say a word as she lay on her father’s chest in grievance. She hadn’t seen her father for many days.
“Master Xiao, Madam, you can do whatever you want. Please don’t worry and leave Little Miss to me. I won’t let her fall into any danger. I’ll take care of her until she’s fair, fat, and cute.” Aunt Qi said from behind the two of them.
At this moment, Lin Wanli looked at Youran. Her heart was filled with guilt. So, she reached out to stroke the little girl’s head and apologized profusely. “I’m sorry, baby. When you needed Daddy and Mommy the most, we couldn’t be by your side. This might become the biggest regret of my life.”
“Don’t think like that, Madam. If possible, who wouldn’t want to keep their child by their side? You’re also thinking about Youran’s safety, so you don’t have to blame yourself. Youran has many people who love her. She will eventually understand your love for her.”
Huo Jiuxiao looked at Lin Wanli’s teary eyes and reached out to wipe her tears. Then, he gently coaxed Huo Youran, who was lying on his shoulder, to sleep.
When she was fast asleep, Lin Wanli took it and kissed her forehead as if she couldn’t see enough of her.
“Aren’t you going to accompany her for a night before leaving?” Huo Jiuxiao asked as he watched Lin Wanli pass Youran to Aunt Qi.
Lin Wanli shook her head.
[I’m afraid I won’t be able to leave if I take a few more glances.]
The husband and wife watched their daughter sleep soundly and greeted the Yue family before leaving the villa.
[I’ve already resigned from the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. I’ve also temporarily handed over all of Taixi’s matters to Xu Qingru. The Huo family’s situation is still unknown. I’ve asked Yan Qiu to stay in the Yue family for the time being and help take care of Youran. Once everything is settled over there, I’ll call her for help at any time. Also, Yan Qiu said that she wants to go to
Diheng for training. Can Duan Yanxing take over?”
“With Yan Qiu’s skills, many of Di Heng’s S-rank bodyguards might not even be able to catch up to him. Duan Yanxing is more than happy to do so. However, is it worth it for you to sacrifice so much for me?”
The husband and wife were walking in the Yue family’s garden. At this moment, Lin Wanli stopped and looked at Huo Jiuxiao.
“I’m just facing the difficulties of our lives with you, but that’s not the end of our lives. Huo Jiuxiao, I like standing by your side.”
Huo Jiuxiao suddenly hugged Lin Wanli’s waist and lowered his head to kiss her. “Welcome, my Little Sweet Wife.”
On the other hand, Mu Qingya released Lin Wanli’s “scandal” and got her father to make use of it to discuss it with Huo Qingxiao on the phone in the evening.
She could either change her eldest daughter-in-law or let her obediently wait for the other brothers of the Huo family to get married first. Without such a person, there was no reason for her to be in the limelight.
Huo Qingxiao laughed dryly and said tactfully, “The Huo family has respected the order of seniority since ancient times. The order of marriage must be in accordance with the order. In the past, when Jiuxiao did not return home, that was another matter. Now that he had returned to the Huo family, as the legitimate son of the Huo family, how could he give way to his other brothers?
“Old Huo, aren’t you being too old-fashioned? Nowadays, young people’s marriages depend on fate. How could they adapt to their age? Actually, we don’t have to fight for that order, but the daughter-in-law you found has so many scandals. You’re making us lose face, aren’t you?”
“If you feel that you lost face you can break off the engagement.” Huo Qingxiao said bluntly.
After hearing Huo Qingxiao’s words, the other party knew that his attitude was unyielding. He was secretly surprised.
This person was obviously biased towards his eldest son, so it was fine if they didn’t get married.
“Aren’t you going to ask for your second son’s opinion?” Old Mu asked.
“Everyone in the Huo family should make way for Huo Jiuxiao unconditionally..”
