Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Huo Xuan: βI told Mom about what happened before with you.β
Huo Sicheng, as if deep in thought, asked, βWhat happened before?β
Huo Xuan nodded, βYes, that thing that happened before.β
Huo Sicheng stared intently at Huo Xuan.
After a moment, he asked, βWhat thing?β
Huo Xuan: β
He hadnβt expected his father to be unaware of what he was talking about.
βThe thing about you being in a hotel room with another woman abroad.β Huo Sichengβs normally calm expression instantly froze on his face.
βYouβ¦β
βTime to eat,β Gu Qingchengβs happy voice rang out, βThe dishes are ready, letβs eat.β
Huo Xuan, seeing his fatherβs changed expression, lowered his head apologetically, then raised it again upon hearing his motherβs voice.
He saw his motherβs gentle eyes looking towards him and his father, easing some of his tension.
His mother had promised him, she wouldnβt beat his father. She just didnβt want to be angry with him or argue with him. He believed his father would forgive him for speaking out of turn.
Huo Sichengβs words stopped when Gu Qingcheng arrived.
His deep, dark eyes watched Gu Qingcheng, who was all smiles, with a complex emotion in his gaze.
βWhat are you father and son doing standing there?β Gu Qingcheng put the cold dishes on the table and looked at them, puzzled, βIs there something on my face? You both look so stunned.β
She turned and checked her face in the dining room mirror but found nothing on it.
βMom is the most beautiful,β Huo Xuan said sweetly, βBaby and Dad like looking at Mom the most.β
Gu Qingcheng turned to look at Huo Xuan, seeing his affectionate expression, and happily walked over to hug him.
βMy baby has such sweet words, so adorable,β she kissed Huo Xuanβs cheek and looked at Huo Sicheng with a teasing smile, βOur baby has a sweeter mouth than you. You look a bit silly tonight, it seems youβve been too busy and your brain is short-circuiting.β
Huo Sicheng looked at Gu Qingcheng, who was smiling brightly at him, and clenched his hand on the armrest, a trace of unease crossing his eyes.
Gu Qingcheng, surprised at Huo Sichengβs lack of response to her teasing, asked, βHubby, whatβs wrong? Is something bothering you?β
Huo Sicheng suddenly came back to reality and quickly shook his head, approaching Gu Qingcheng.
βIβm fine.β
Gu Qingcheng asked with concern, βYouβve been staring at me without any reaction, are you sure youβre alright?β
Huo Sicheng shook his head and gently said, βLetβs eat first, Iβm a bit hungry.β
Gu Qingcheng, surprised and then more brightly smiling, said, βThis is the first time Iβve heard you say youβre hungry. Alright, if my hubby is hungry, then letβs eat quickly.β freewebnov(e)l
At the dining table, Gu Qingcheng kept serving food, piling up Huo Sichengβs bowl like a small mountain.
βEat, why are you just looking at me?β
Huo Sicheng watched Gu Qingcheng, feeling both cherished and uneasy.
No.
It wasnβt just a feeling of being cherished; there was also uneasiness.
Gu Qingcheng, smiling beautifully and speaking each word with utmost gentleness, made him even more apprehensive. The more she acted like this, the more uneasy he felt.
Every time he thought about what Huo Xuan had said, he imagined Gu Qingcheng flipping the table and hitting him.
Gu Qingcheng sat next to Huo Sicheng, her peripheral vision catching his subtle changes in expression, and she glanced at the happily eating Huo Xuan.
This dinner was torturous for Huo Sicheng, and he remained tense even after finishing, waiting for Gu Qingchengβs anger to explode.
βDad, I didnβt mean to tell Mom about the woman abroad,β Huo Xuan hurriedly said while his mother was in the kitchen, βIt slipped out, but donβt worry, Dad. Mom has forgiven you, she wonβt hit you or be angry with you.β
Huo Sicheng, surprised, asked, βYour mother really said that?β
Huo Xuan nodded, βYes.β
βAre you sure?β Huo Sicheng asked again, βShe wonβt be angry with me, she wonβt hit me?β
βYes, Iβm sure,β Huo Xuan tilted his head, his large eyes staring at his surprised father, βI believe in Mom, so you should believe in her too. If she says she wonβt be angry, she wonβt be, and she wonβt hit you.β
βHubbyβ¦β Gu Qingcheng walked into the dining room, βGo and run a bath for me, I want to take a bath after I finish up here.β
Huo Sicheng looked deeply at Gu Qingcheng, βAlright, Iβll go run the bath now.β
βBaby, you havenβt finished your homework, right?β Gu Qingcheng looked at Huo Xuan, βGo and do your homework first, then take a bath, and then go to bed?β
Huo Xuan obediently replied, βOkay, Iβll go to my room to do homework now.β Gu Qingcheng didnβt ask the servants for help, and after tidying up the kitchen, she went to the bedroom.
She had just entered when she saw Huo Sicheng, pausing in her steps.
In the room, just the two of them, without their son Huo Xuan present, her emotions werenβt suppressed, and she was overwhelmed with thoughts, her mind in chaos.
Huo Sicheng watched Gu Qingcheng standing still with a complex expression, feeling the anger emanating from her, as if she was about to strike at any moment.
He broke the silence first: βQingchengβ¦β
Gu Qingcheng, hearing Huo Sichengβs magnetic voice, visibly trembled, her thoughts pulled back to the present.
βIβm here,β she smiled and walked towards Huo Sicheng, βHubby, whatβs wrong?β
Huo Sichengβs eyes flickered.
Gu Qingcheng didnβt explode in anger or even lay a hand on him.
He remembered Huo Xuanβs words about Gu Qingcheng not being angry or hitting him.
He didnβt believe what Huo Xuan said, thinking Gu Qingchengβs words were just to calm Huo Xuan.
At least he knew Gu Qingchengβs character; she wouldnβt tolerate him being in a hotel room with another woman.
But when he was ready for Gu Qingchengβs outburst, not only did she not get angry, she was still as gentle as usual with him.
His memory flashed back to a few days ago, when Gu Qingcheng gave him the cold shoulder, ignoring his existence, causing him immense pain.
Before Huo Sicheng could speak, Gu Qingcheng said, βIβm going to take a bath first.
After saying that, she went to the bathroom.
Huo Sichengβs words were swallowed, and he watched the closed bathroom door, his eyes complex, leaving the bedroom.
Gu Qingcheng lay tiredly in the spacious, comfortable bathtub, closing her eyes. The dayβs struggles had exhausted her, and she didnβt want to think about Huo Sicheng and Miss Liβs troubling matters, just wanting to enjoy a comfortable bath.
After washing up, Huo Sicheng was about to return to the bedroom when he saw his son Huo Xuan sneakily standing at the bedroom door.
βWhat are you sneaking around for?β
Huo Xuan, startled, quickly looked at his father with an obedient expression, relieved to see his father unharmed.
βI wasnβt doing anything.β
Huo Sicheng saw the worry for him in Huo Xuanβs eyes and asked, βAre you worried about your mom beating me up?β
