Chapter 442: 442, pay attention to the occasion
Huo Jingshen lowered his head to look at her.
The young girl’s smile was sweet, her bright phoenix eyes curved like crescents as she looked at him with sparkling eyes.
As if there were stars inside.
Due to being indoors and wearing a black high-necked base shirt, her black curly hair that fell perfectly on her shoulders flattered her delicate face with rosy lips and white teeth.
Compared to a few months ago, the young girl seemed more like a lady now.
Of course, this was inseparable from his careful guidance.
“Ahem ahem ahem.” Suddenly, the old man Huo coughed heavily as a reminder.
Huo Jingshen stopped his action and then sat back properly.
Su Wanwan hurriedly lowered her head, her face growing hot.
She thought no one had noticed when…
“What are you doing, old man? The newlywed couple is just being affectionate. Surely you’re not spying on them! Learn to read the room!” At the words of Lady Huo, everyone at the table looked at Su Wanwan and Huo Jingshen.
Su Wanwan was at a loss for words.
My goodness, you really have a loud voice.
Old Man Huo’s face and neck reddened.
He was sat next to Huo Jingshen and had just caught a glimpse of them when the remark was made, what do they mean by spying?
He glared at his foolish old wife and said nothing.
Only Huo Jingshen remained composed, with a faint smile on his lips, he even stood up, picked up a spoon, and started serving soup.
Xing Siqing across the table clenched her fist fiercely.
Shameless!
Flirting in front of the elders, who knows what seductive tricks she used to bewitch him in bed.
No wonder he’s head over heels for her!
She’s simply a vile woman!
With jealous eyes and angry expression, she was quickly noticed by Huo Qinyu sitting next to her, who nudged her daughter under the table.
Xing Siqing gritted her teeth, about to say something when…
“Oh, what is that on Wanwan’s hand? A wedding ring?” Lady Huo made a new discovery again.
Su Wanwan: “…”
Because Huo Jingshen served her a bowl of silver fungus and lotus seed soup, she merely reached out to take it, then…
“Ashen also has one on.” Lady Huo was overjoyed, “Ah, newlyweds are always so sentimental, wearing their wedding rings everywhere. Unlike your grandfather, that insensible old man.”
Old Man Huo: “…”
This is ridiculous…
Both already old and they’re saying we should still wear our wedding rings?
As for Xing Siqing, upon seeing the diamond ring on Su Wanwan’s left ring finger, her eyes bulged out, feeling like an absurdity.
Did the two of them come out tonight to show off their affection?
They’ve been married for so long?
Suddenly wearing wedding rings?
And such a large diamond ring?
Out of rage, she could no longer restrain herself, grabbing her mobile phone and slamming it on the table.
The loud noise naturally attracted everyone’s attention at the table.
“What’s wrong with Siqing?” Lady Huo furrowed her brows in discontent.
Huo Qinyu quickly got up, “It’s alright, mom, she said she has a stomachache. Siqing, come with me to the restroom.”
Xing Siqing was reluctantly pulled up.

Once they got into the restroom, Huo Qinyu sounded a harsh warning, “What exactly are you doing? Didn’t we agree? Tonight’s dinner is a rare occasion with your grandparents, why are you creating havoc? Can’t you act mature?”
“I can’t take it!” Xing Siqing screamed, “Every time I think of how she got me sent to the property sales department, and my brother got sent to Jiangcheng, I get so angry, I can’t help it!”
“Are you an idiot?” Huo Qinyu was exasperated, “Your grandparents are here, and you’re picking a fight with her? You’re looking for a way to lose face? Haven’t you been taught enough lessons?”
“…” Xing Siqing bit her lip, panting heavily.
“You purposely brought up that Wanwan hasn’t given any gifts yet. What are you trying to do? How many times have I told you? No matter how upset you are, Wanwan is now married to Ashen, she is your sister-in-law! Even if you’re unhappy, at least pretend to act like family! Got it?” Huo Qinyu scolded angrily, “If you keep acting like you did just now, you’ll be the one suffer, and don’t expect me to help you!”
Huo Qinyu had a splitting headache.
How did she give birth to such a foolish daughter?
She’s been fooled by Su Wanwan so many times, why hasn’t she learned to be wary?
Can’t she even pretend?
“Did you hear what I said?”
“I got it!” Xing Siqing said impatiently.
Huo Qinyu took a deep breath, “Let’s go back.”
**
After the birthday banquet, Huo Juncheng and Mingzhu saw everyone off to their cars.
When everyone had left, Mingzhu suddenly turned around and grabbed Huo Zhexi’s ear, “You little rascal, tell me, what kind of mischief were you up to when you swiped my card just now?”
Huo Zhexi was in pain, grimacing, “Mom, I just… just lent some money to a friend.”
“Nonsense! Who borrows money down to the penny?”
Huo Zhexi felt aggrieved, “…”
He had spent more than a hundred thousand to buy a Qinghua Porcelain Tea Set as a birthday gift for his father, only to have Su Wenwen, that damned girl, take the credit. And he had to swallow his indignation….
This was utterly stupid!
Meanwhile in the car, Su Wanwan asked, “When did you prepare that Qinghua Porcelain Tea Set?”
She had been kept in the dark, considering the gift was in the car all along.
Huo Jingshen smiled slightly, “Are you happy?”
Su Wanwan nodded.
She had gained some face, of course she was happy.
Then Huo Jingshen asked, “How is my darling planning to thank her husband who made her look good?”
Su Wanwan looked at him, suddenly leaned over, and lightly touched his cheek.
As she was about to pull away, he grabbed her hand.
