Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 388 - 389: Chu Tingting’s New Strategy

Huo Yanting watched as Chu Tingting walked out of the door dejectedly, his expression immediately returning to indifference.

Just thinking about how malicious she was—actually getting someone to throw stones at the pear garden’s gate—made him feel he wouldn’t give her another chance.

His future wife should, first and foremost, be kind. Otherwise, marrying someone as scheming and calculating as Chu Tingting would not only harm him but also bring disaster to his descendants.

Thinking of this, Huo Yanting wondered if he might be overthinking it.

Still, when it comes to one’s own interests, thinking further ahead shouldn’t be a bad thing.

That evening, Chu Tingting indeed went alone to the Huo family’s grand estate.

As soon as she stepped in, Mrs. Huo started talking: "Yanting said there’s an important guest he needs to meet tonight and will eat outside. Tingting, I’m so sorry to have called you over here alone."

Chu Tingting loved showing her best side in front of Mrs. Huo. She immediately smiled warmly and said considerately, "Grandma, what are you saying? Yan Ting and I spent the whole day together at the company. I came over especially to see you."

Mrs. Huo was overjoyed, looking at Chu Tingting’s gentle and sweet demeanor. Wasn’t this exactly her ideal choice for a granddaughter-in-law?

Unlike that Lin Banxia—just giving a birthday gift was enough to make her so angry she almost fainted. That girl even dared to secretly enter into a hidden marriage with her grandson. Stubborn, ambitious, and hard to control. Who knows how much she had taken from her grandson? Her scheming nature was truly terrifying. Mrs. Huo really didn’t like her.

"Good, good, I just know you’re such a filial child. Come, accompany me for a walk, and we’ll have dinner when we return," Mrs. Huo said with a warm, smiling tone.

Chu Tingting immediately reached out to hold onto Mrs. Huo’s arm, supporting the elderly lady as they walked outside together.

At that moment, the sun had just set, and the scenery was beautiful.

Chu Tingting chatted with Mrs. Huo about everyday matters, creating a very cozy atmosphere. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Grandma, why have you been sighing so much while we’ve been walking?" Chu Tingting sensitively noticed this.

Mrs. Huo finally revealed the reason: "It’s all because of my youngest grandson. Yesterday, for some reason, he came home with a head injury. He’s still lying in bed now. When I asked him what happened, he said it was a car accident. It’s truly maddening—how many times have I told him to drive carefully? He just wouldn’t listen. And now look—he hurt his head! Who knows if there will be any aftereffects."

Hearing Mrs. Huo’s concerns, Chu Tingting’s heart suddenly tightened, and her expression grew stiff.

If Mrs. Huo found out this was her doing, would she be utterly disappointed in her?

"Grandma, perhaps Second Young Master is just a little too young. But I’m sure he’ll take this as a lesson and be more cautious in the future. Don’t worry too much," Chu Tingting said after a brief pause, trying to comfort Mrs. Huo.

"I hope so. If he doesn’t learn, even the heavens can’t save him," Mrs. Huo said with a mixture of heartbreak and frustration.

After thinking for a while, Chu Tingting softly said, "Since I’m here, I’d like to go see him!"

"There’s no need to go out of your way. He’ll come down for dinner tonight," Mrs. Huo said, becoming even more satisfied with Chu Tingting after seeing how considerate she appeared.

But Chu Tingting’s mind was working on an entirely different plan. Her intention in seeing Huo Qinglin was nothing more than to negotiate terms with him. This strategy would undoubtedly be mutually beneficial.

The question remained—would Huo Qinglin dare to join her in taking the risk?
