“I know that I’m out of the question since you didn’t even end up with Su Yu although he stuck by you for all these years. I know that I don’t really have a chance, but boldness is my strong suit, and I’ll never know until I try, right? If I don’t even have the guts to give it a try, then I don’t even have the right to fantasize. Don’t be mad, President Huo. If you don’t want to, it’s fine. However, if you regret your decision in the future and want to come to me, my door is always open.” Jiang Ye stood up right away.
“Don’t worry, you won’t have a chance, not in this life nor the next.”
Huo Mian rejected him completely.
Jiang Ye stopped walking, turned around, and smirked deviously. “I just love how arrogant you are…”
Huo Mian was caught speechless.
After Jiang Ye left, Huo Mian continued working.
She didn’t care if Jiang Ye could provide her with proof that Huo Siqian killed Song Yishi; she won’t even care if Jiang Ye helped her kill Huo Siqian, because she would never give in to him. For Huo Mian, Qin Chu was the only one she was willing to be under.
After busying around all morning, Huo Mian video-called Mr. Qin.
Qin Chu held his cell phone and showed her the scene of the twins practicing piano, which made Huo Mian feel proud.
“Mr. Qin… you sure are efficient.”
“Right? So, are you going to compliment me, my wife?”
“Of course… my hubby is the best.”
“How is our excellence in piano related to her husband being the best? I don’t understand, Sis,” Little Bean wondered.
“Our parents’ fancy way of showing affection cannot be understood by everyone. You better play some more piano, or if Mommy sees you slacking off, you won’t be able to eat ice cream today,” Pudding replied.
“Oh my god, please don’t take away this little pleasure from me,” Little Bean cried.
“Little Bean, what are you murmuring about?” Huo Mian looked at Little Bean, who was sitting not far behind Mr. Qin in the video.
“Ah, I said I suddenly miss Mommy a lot today. I wish you were here, then I would be able to play this new song for you,” Little Bean lied calmly without blushing.
“Good girl, go back to practicing with your sister, okay? Remember to play it with your heart rather than focusing on the skill.”
“I know, Mommy. We will use you as a role model and learn from you. Daddy said Mommy is very skilled at playing piano,” Little Bean continued to compliment endlessly.
Huo Mian nodded in content to indicate her joy.
Pudding, on the other hand, exclaimed, “Butt-kissing people are more favored these days.”
Qin Chu almost laughed out loud after hearing her words.
After coming back to the country, he had been so happy because his twin daughters had brought him so many waves of laughter.
Sometimes, Qin Chu even felt that these two kiddos were the best presents that God could have ever brought to him.
They were the fruits and witnesses of the deep love between him and Huo Mian.
“Honey, come to Hilton’s Chinese restaurant at six tonight. I’ll also go right after work.”
“Are we having a family dinner?”
“A family gathering, actually. Lingling’s and Xiaowei’s families are coming too.”
“Oh… that’s perfect. The more the merrier.”
“Yup, I’ll see you tonight.”
“Okay… work hard, President Huo,” Qin Chu said affectionately as he looked at Huo Mian in the video, who was wearing a black suit that showed her body curves.
Huo Mian smiled shyly like a teenage girl and said, “I’ll do my best.”
– 6 P.M., the Chinese restaurant at the Hilton Hotel –
“Mommy, can I go home first? I’m so scared of seeing Little Bean and Pudding.” Before the gathering even started, Wei Yunchu had already become nervous and wanted to run away. Jiang Xiaowei didn’t know whether she should laugh or cry.
