Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 506 - 487: Officially Joining the Huo Family

In the evening, upon returning home, Lin Banxia discussed Mrs. Huo’s proposal with her family. Cheng Roning was overjoyed to hear that Mrs. Huo herself had agreed to the marriage.

"Wow, Sis, you’re so lucky! When you become the young mistress of the Huo Family, will I need to book an appointment to visit you?" Meng Jiahui asked sweetly and innocently.

Lin Banxia couldn’t help but laugh at her sister’s cute comment and quickly responded, "Jiahui, you can always come over to visit me. No need for an appointment—you’re my sister, after all."

Mu Jiyang laughed and teased her, "You little daydreamer!"

Meng Jiahui pouted in mock displeasure, upset at being teased.

Cheng Roning was visibly excited and remarked joyfully, "Banxia, it really looks like the Huo Family is serious about taking you as one of their own this time."

Lin Banxia blushed slightly and said, "I think I’m benefiting from Mom’s good fortune. That’s probably why Mrs. Huo approved of me."

Mu Jiyang quickly chimed in, "Banxia, don’t say that—it’s more like we’re the lucky ones! Once you marry Yan Ting, it’ll have an immense impact on our company!"

Though Cheng Roning had considered this aspect of their connection, her primary wish was still for her daughter’s happiness in marriage.

"Banxia, if you want to wait on the betrothal gift, it’s entirely up to you. I won’t force you. As long as you and Yan Ting genuinely love one another, your happiness is what matters," Cheng Roning said, showing herself to be an open-minded mother who wouldn’t burden her daughter over tradition.

Lin Banxia thought for a moment before replying softly, "Mom, could we leave the betrothal gift discussion until after we finalize the engagement?"

"Of course; we can discuss it later during the engagement," Cheng Roning agreed with a nod.

The next day, Lin Banxia was personally escorted back to the Huo Family residence by Huo Yanting. However, this time, they weren’t staying in the private villa halfway up the mountain. Instead, they stayed in the Huo Family’s main estate.

At lunchtime, at the dining table!

Lin Banxia noticed the entire Huo Family seated at the table.

She froze momentarily!

Huo Anya looked at her in dissatisfaction and exclaimed, "Grandma, is she the guest we were waiting for? What’s going on?"

Mrs. Huo immediately shot her granddaughter a sharp look and said sternly, "Anya, stop shouting. From now on, Banxia will be your sister-in-law. We’re all family now."

"What?" Everyone in the Huo Family, except for Huo Qinglin, expressed shock.

Huo Tianfeng hadn’t expected Huo Yanting to go through with marrying Lin Banxia, even rejecting the Chu Family marriage proposal.

Old Sir Huo scanned the room with his imposing presence, finally settling his gaze on Lin Banxia, who stood nervously to the side. "Banxia, here’s the agreement we discussed before. Take it back with you. In the future, take good care of Yanting and give the Huo Family heirs as soon as possible."

Lin Banxia noticed that Old Sir Huo was handing back the agreement papers and couldn’t help but smile brightly. She glanced at Huo Yanting, and he gently squeezed her palm in comfort before taking the documents. "Thank you, Grandpa!"

Luo Mei’s face turned pale with anger, but in front of the two elders, she didn’t dare say anything.

Huo Anya seemed as though she wanted to speak up, but Luo Mei silenced her with a look.

Since Lin Banxia had already stepped into the living room, it was clear that the fact she would marry Huo Yanting could no longer be undone.

"Take a seat and eat!" Mrs. Huo quickly welcomed Lin Banxia.

Huo Yanting pulled out a chair for her and sat down beside her.

Huo Qinglin sat across from them, head lowered, silently acknowledging the situation.

Though the meal appeared harmonious on the surface, everyone at the table had their own thoughts.

After the meal, Lin Banxia and Huo Yanting prepared to return to their home to rest.

Walking out of the manor, Lin Banxia exhaled deeply, "I thought I’d suffocate in there—it was so tense I broke into a sweat during the meal!"

"Relax. Don’t pay too much attention to their stares. Grandpa and Grandma have already affirmed your place in the family. Even if Huo Qinglin’s household disapproves of you, they’ll still show you some respect in the future," Huo Yanting reassured her, evidently aware of the tension she’d been feeling.

He gently comforted her.

Lin Banxia finally smiled. "I don’t actually care about their stares; I guess I’m just a little afraid of your grandparents."

"They might be strict, but they’re kindhearted people," Huo Yanting said, patting her shoulder to ease her worries.
