Chapter 566: Chapter 565: 565, wearing the same clothes as a child

As for Fu Qi, his little face instantly became pale and then flushed. He was deeply affected.

Is Brother Jingshen going to have a baby with Su Wanwan?

He couldn’t even bear to think about that scene.

Yet the sounds he heard in the corridor last night, they were definitely doing it again.

Fu Qi lowered his head, suddenly losing his appetite for anything, even the Golden Yuanbao and Round Yuanbao candies.

Su Wanwan didn’t really wake up until after nine in the morning.

When she saw the time, she gave a mournful cry and burrowed back into the quilt.

When Huo Jingshen came over to pull back the quilt, she glared at him fiercely, “Why didn’t you wake me up!”

It was the first day of the New Year, and she was at the Huo Family’s residence yet she had slept in until after nine.

She remembered when she was a kid, she was always woken up at seven in the morning on the first day of the New Year.

Oh my God.

All because she was too excited last night receiving money, suddenly wanted to drink, was too greedy, and then after drinking…

Indulging in alcohol, plus indulging in…allowed her to sleep in till after nine on the first day of the New Year.

Su Wanwan covered her little face with her hand, feeling like she couldn’t face anyone downstairs.

Huo Jingshen rubbed her little head, “What’s there to be embarrassed about? It’s not the first time this has happened. Grandpa and Grandma have been there, they understand. Otherwise, why do you think they changed our bed to a new one?”

“You’re still talking! It was all your fault last night! Be honest, after I got drunk, you…”

Huo Jingshen gave a wicked grin.

“Ahhhhhhh!”

This shameless scoundrel of a man!

No wonder she slept in until after nine.

She swore she would never drink again!

“Ahhhhhhh…”

“Stop screaming!”

Her mouth was suddenly covered and Huo Jingshen, staring at the tousled girl, asked in a gentle voice, “Are you hungry?”

With her mouth covered, Su Wanwan could only nod her little head as fast as if she was pounding garlic.

Hungry.

She was almost starving to death.

But she was too embarrassed to go downstairs to eat.

“Wait here,” Huo JingShen commanded.

Once he let go and got up heading towards the door, Su Wanwan hurriedly asked, “What are you going to do?”

Huo Jingshen answered seriously, “I’m going to steal some dumplings for you.”

Steal dumplings?

Su Wanwan instantly thought about last night’s stolen wine.

Oh dear!

Forget it.

Su Wanwan got up, “No need, I’ll go downstairs to eat.”

It’s not her first time oversleeping at the Huo’s house. Pretending it didn’t happen was just self-deception.

Forget it, just forget it.

Huo Jingshen nodded approvingly, “Good girl.”

Su Wanwan: “…”

**

After freshening up, Su Wanwan also changed into a set of new clothes before finally going downstairs.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

She had no choice, since Huo Jingshen had bought them yesterday as per the old lady’s instructions. She said that you should wear new clothes on the first day of the New Year, symbolizing the farewell to the old and the welcoming of the new.

But when she reached downstairs, it hit her like a ton of bricks.

My god.

She was wearing the same outfit as Fu Ziyang!

The little guy was wearing a red, English-style blazer, while hers was a casual red wraparound.

It was incredibly awkward.

Grandma Huo, on the other hand, was quite pleased, “Su Wanwan, you have fair skin, so you look good in red. Come on, eat your Yuanbao, then take the kids outside for a walk and do some shopping.”

Kids?

Kids!

Su Wanwan was speechless.

Was she now considered one of the kids?

As for going shopping, Su Wanwan didn’t want to go after breakfast.

She didn’t really like shopping, and she only accompanied Mo Weiyi because she loved it. Plus, there would certainly be a lot of people out on the first day of the New Year. It would be more relaxing to stay at home and play games or cards.

Then Fu Qi, who had quickly wrapped up his breakfast and donned his jacket, beningly said, “Brother Jingshen, let’s go.”

Su Wanwan opened her eyes wide, “What are you up to?”

Fu Qi pursed his little mouth and said somewhat timidly, “Grandma Huo said Brother Jingshen should take us for a walk in the city.”

That moment, Fu Ziyang also came down, properly dressed.

Su Wanwan wriggling her fingers, conceded, “Wait for me! I’m coming too!”

After saying that, she rushed upstairs.

As soon as they entered the bedroom, Huo Jingshen was grabbing his car keys.

Su Wanwan gave a huff, picked up her bag and jacket, and muttered, “Stinky man!”

Huo Jingshen had a puzzled look on his face: “What happened?”

Isn’t she happy about going shopping?

Su Wanwan ignored him.

But when they reached the lobby, she instantly latched onto his arm. “Honey, is it just us four going shopping?” she asked.

Huo Jingshen: “…”

Why is this girl so fickle?

Fu Qi observed her curiously. “Didn’t you just say you didn’t want to go shopping?”

“Who said that? Shopping is fun, the more the merrier.” After finishing her statement, Su Wanwan pointed at the figure who had just entered the room, “Second brother, come with us.”

Huo Nuanyang: “…”Could he opt out?

However, it wasn’t an option. Granny Huo’s eyes lit up upon hearing that and she immediately exclaimed, “Great, Nuanyang, you should also go shopping with your brother and sister-in-law. It’s not often that you are at home. Your grandfather and I will stay behind as we have friends coming over for tea.”

Fu Qi hurriedly voiced out, “Grandma Huo, then I won’t go either.”

“How could you not? I’ve heard from little Wu that ever since you came to Nancheng, you’ve been staying in the villa. You hardly go out to explore. Nancheng has a lot to offer, and the shops will definitely be open today. It’s going to be really convenient to buy anything.”

Finishing her sentence, she immediately commanded, “Nuanyang, hurry up, let Miss Fu sit in your car.”

Fu Qi felt helpless, she wanted to ride in Brother Jingshen’s car!

But Huo Nuanyang had already agreed, saying “OK”, he stood up and picked up his car keys, “Let’s go.”

Feeling desperate, Fu Qi had no choice but to follow him reluctantly.

However, when they arrived at the garage, she saw Fu Ziyang and Su Wanwan climbing into the black Husang car from a distance. Just as she was about to catch up to them, the Husang had already reversed out of the garage and drove away.

The car left so quickly that Fu Qi barely had time to yell, “Brother Jingshen”.

And just like that, the black Husang car drove off like an arrow shot from a bow.

Fu Qi was so frustrated she almost stomped her feet.

Why was she so slow?

“Miss Fu.” Granny Huo said with a satisfied smile, “You’ll ride in Nuanyang’s car.”

Actually, Fu Qi was quite beautiful. If Nuanyang really did like her, matchmaking could work in their favour- she could possibly become my second granddaughter-in-law.

After all, Ashen is already married to Wanwan, forcing things would not yield a good outcome.

Fu Qi wasn’t aware of Granny Huo’s thoughts, faced with the old lady’s smiling face, she had no choice but to nod and follow Huo Nuanyang to the garage.

But she didn’t expect Huo Nuanyang to be driving a high-seated camouflage Mercedes SUV.

The car seat was too high and she, in a bid to look beautiful, was wearing a slightly fishtail long skirt that day. Although she looked elegant, she couldn’t step high enough to climb into the car.

It was quite embarrassing.

At that moment, Huo Nuanyang walked over, looked at Fu Qi and said, “Get in.”

Fu Qi’s face turned bright red.

She wanted to get in, but…

She wasn’t able to climb in!

Huo Nuanyang glanced at her skirt and quickly realized her predicament. “Go change into some pants.”

His voice was as always- cold, brisk, blunt–just like he was reprimanding those new recruits.

Fu Qi naturally understood what he meant and her face turned even redder.

With no other choice, she turned around and ran back inside.

Granny Huo, who had just gone back to her room, was surprised. “Miss Fu, what happened?”

Fu Qi replied, “I’m changing into something more comfortable to wear.”

“Oh.”

Fu Qi quickly changed into a pair of jeans and headed back out.

When she arrived, Huo Nuanyang was still standing by his car, only now he was smoking a cigarette.

He looked so carefree holding the cigarette between his long fingers, as he squinted his eyes and saw her approaching. He exhaled a cloud of smoke through his thin lips.

His demeanor was a bit wild, eyes were cold, but there was an undeniable intensity that made it hard to look away, as though everything in her heart could be seen through, leaving her no place to hide.

Fu Qi felt jittery under his gaze.

It really sucked to feel as though someone had pulled your strings!

She walked over, opened the car’s back door, and clumsily climbed in.

The car seat was high, and Fu Qi had never ridden in such a vehicle before. Sitting in the seat felt odd.

From outside the window, Huo Nuanyang took a hard drag from his cigarette, dropped it to the ground and crushed it with his foot.

Women were indeed troublesome. The time she spent changing her pants was long enough for him to finish his cigarette.

Fu Qi obediently sat in the back seat. After Huo Nuanyang got in the car and started to pull out of the courtyard, she said, “Hey, you must not tell Su Wanwan about what I said yesterday, did you hear me?”

The man was driving as if he didn’t hear her, not responding at all.

“Didn’t you hear me talking?” Fu Qi frowned, “Hey, hey?”

Finally unable to bear it, she leaned forward and timidly poked at the man’s shoulder.

The man she poked finally spoke up, “I have a name.”

Name?

Fu Qi blinked her eyes.

Huo Nuanyang? Isn’t that a total misnomer?
