His eyes widened in disbelief. “How… did you know?”
“It was a simple deduction.” Huo Mian smiled.
Su Yu turned around and glanced weirdly at An. “Did you sell me out and tell her?”
“No,” An was a man of few words, but Su Yu knew he never lied.
“Why, she guessed right and you don’t want to admit defeat?” Mrs. Su smiled at her son, while Grandpa Su snorted. “Are you going to be a sore loser?”
“It’s not that, Grandpa, I just… didn’t think she’d guess so accurately… She guessed everything! I bought a piece of rare silk and made qipaos for Pudding and Little Bean… You know how to read minds, don’t you?” Once again, Su Yu was left in awe by Huo Mian’s intellect. Weren’t women supposed to become slower after having kids? Huo Mian was the absolute exception.
“It wasn’t hard to guess, Pudding and Little Bean are girls, and as rich as you are, you would never buy ordinary silk. Recently, I just heard about the Hu Family’s craftsmanship in silk work, so I just made a bold guess.”
“How did you know I would make qipaos for them?” Su Yu asked.
“You’re kidding me, right? Are you going to make handkerchiefs out of such expensive silk? Plus, the silk from Jiangzhou makes beautiful qipao, and only that… it really wasn’t too hard to guess, and you don’t have to sound surprised. It was just logical reasoning.”
“Fine, you win. I’m at a loss for words, Master Huo.” Su Yu was completely in awe of Huo Mian’s wits.
“Wow, Mommy, you’re amazing!” Little Bean began to kiss Huo Mian’s ass.
“I thought you didn’t have confidence in me.” Huo Mian still remembered her daughter’s comment just now.
Little Bean stuck out her tongue. “I… did it on purpose to throw a smoke grenade at Handsome Su! Haha…”
“So, Handsome Su, where are our qipaos?” Pudding extended her hands in anticipation.
Su Yu turned around to look at An. “Bring them in.”
The latter nodded and walked to the door to open up a giant suitcase, subsequently taking out two red qipaos.
“Here you go, President Su, put them on the twins.”
“Wow! Look at that red!” Huo Mian’s eyes lit up.
“Mommy, come on, let’s go! I want to wear it right now! I want to look pretty!” Little Bean exclaimed in excitement.
“Come with me, Grandma will help you two,” Yang Meirong offered.
“I’ll help you guys too,” Mrs. Su chimed in.
Then, they took the qipaos from Huo Mian’s hands and went to help the twins change into them.
Su Yu added. “I’m not sure if they fit, but I gave the shop their sizes.”
“Should be fine… Qipaos are like dresses, the length doesn’t really matter,” Huo Mian replied.
“What do you think, Mommy, am I pretty?” Little Bean immediately ran over and did a spin in front of Huo Mian.
“Yes, you are!” Huo Mian looked at her daughter, who was dancing around in her little red qipao.
Pudding, on the other side of the room, was already taking selfies in her new qipao.
“They’re so pretty! They look like Chinese dolls,” Mrs. Su complimented.
Grandpa Su waved them over. “Girls, come over and let me take a good look at you!”
Huo Mian was just about to turn away and sit back down when Su Yu called her name. “Mian…”
“What’s up?” Huo Mian turned around to face him.
