70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman
Chapter 603: Huo Qingze’s Wedding
After considering for two days, Professor Song decided to take a trip to the Imperial City.
This made Professor Jian extremely happy. Once Professor Song left, he would have more time to spend with Doudou.
Professor Song boarded the train with his luggage, and before leaving, Yin Yang had already planned to bring back those two dogs from the Imperial City once Professor Song was there.
Professor Song naturally agreed to this enthusiastically, as he missed those two dogs too.
With Professor Song gone, it was summer vacation, and Professor Jian took Doudou out to play almost every day.
After Professor Song left, the little one didn’t seem to have any trouble adapting. He was so young and didn’t understand much.
Yin Yang and Professor Jian, however, became even more proactive, hoping that the next person the little one would call out to would be them.
Watching them teach the little guy to address people every day, Xu Mumu felt very smug. As it turned out, she was the little guy’s favorite, the first one he called out to, and every time they returned from an outing, she was the first one he looked for.
Fortunately, their efforts weren’t in vain. Before Huo Qingze and Yu Xinyao’s wedding, the little one learned to call out "Papa," which made Yin Yang very proud. He even boasted about it to Huo Qingze.
On Huo Qingze’s wedding day, Xu Mumu put on the dress that Yin Yang had just given her, dressed up the little guy, and went with Yin Yang to attend Huo Qingze’s wedding.
Huo Qingze had prepared several houses here and naturally kept a really nice one for himself.
However, the banquet wasn’t held at his place. It was at the largest restaurant under Yin Yang’s management. Many guests came today, including friends and relatives of both Huo Qingze and Yu Xinyao.
By the time Xu Mumu and her family arrived, the guests were already numerous.
The couple was arranged to be in a private room. Yin Yang was quite popular here, and as soon as he arrived, people started chatting with him. Xu Mumu didn’t like that, so she took Doudou and went to talk to Yu Xinyao.
Yu Xinyao was beautifully dressed today, greeting the guests alongside Huo Qingze. She was delighted when Xu Mumu arrived.
"Doudou, call Auntie," Yu Xinyao knew Doudou had already learned to call for dad and mom, so she wanted him to call her too.
"Ah ah?" The little one didn’t understand, looking puzzledly at Yu Xinyao and then at his mom.
"You see, now that you’re married, having a child shouldn’t be hard, right? Why are you still thinking about my son?" Xu Mumu said with a smile. Doudou was indeed very charming, not only to Yu Xinyao but also to everyone in the Xu Family.
"It’s just that Doudou is so cute," Yu Xinyao said with a smile, "Doudou, may I hold you for a bit?" Yu Xinyao reached out, ready to hold Doudou.
"You and Huo Qingze look so good. Your child will surely be cute too," Xu Mumu laughed. Huo Qingze’s looks were undeniable, and Yu Xinyao was no less. Since both had good looks, their child wouldn’t be any different.
"Then I’ll take your word for it. Brother Qingze has complained to me several times that your man often brings Doudou over to tease him," Yu Xinyao covered her mouth with a light laugh.
Xu Mumu was somewhat helpless. Yin Yang had indeed done this several times. It was a bit out of line.
"Ahem, I’ll scold him when I get back," Xu Mumu said with a smile.
"No need for that. I bet once we have a child, Brother Qingze will definitely pay it back," Yu Xinyao laughed even more, knowing very well what kind of person Huo Qingze was.
"Tsk tsk, so childish," Xu Mumu said, pursing her lips.
Being held by Yu Xinyao, the little guy didn’t fuss at all. He looked around curiously, and Yu Xinyao gave him a small piece of cake. The little guy sat quietly in Yu Xinyao’s arms, eating the cake and observing everything around him. There were so many people here, more than he usually saw.
"It is quite childish," Yu Xinyao said with a smile.
Yu Xinyao chatted with Xu Mumu while also keeping track of the gifts and cash received from the guests. Time passed quite quickly.
Many of the people attending the wedding were from the Imperial City. Xu Mumu even saw Huo Qingze’s father, who didn’t look very well, forcing a smile that even Xu Mumu could sense.
Mr. Huo now had only one son, Huo Qingze, who not only refused to take over his business but also settled so far away. Huo Qingze had been introduced to several well-matched ladies from the Imperial City before, but he had turned them all down, even threatening him not to interfere with his matters.
Despite being his biological father, he was only informed of the wedding a couple of days before. He was incredibly frustrated.
The Yu Family was indeed doing well, and Yu Xinyao herself was quite capable. However, it wasn’t his choice, so he felt some dissatisfaction, though he dared not voice it.
The son was already estranged from him. If he continued to push things, his son would surely drift further away.
The commotion at Huo Qingze’s wedding was lively. Xu Mumu’s family was seated at the innermost table, among those who were closest to Huo Qingze. Mr. Huo, on the other hand, was arranged to sit several tables back. If not for the Yu Family’s attention, his discomfort would have been evident.
Xu Mumu had a delightful meal with Doudou. The wedding feast prepared here was quite delicious, which Xu Mumu liked a lot. Even the little guy ate quite a bit. If Xu Mumu hadn’t stopped him, he would have tried every dish.
After lunch, the little one got sleepy. Saying goodbye to Yu Xinyao, Xu Mumu took her son and left.
In the car, Doudou fell asleep, and Yin Yang drove, taking mother and son back to their villa.
On the way back, Yin Yang talked to Xu Mumu about the day’s interesting events, like how Huo Qingze talked back to his dad and how his friends joked around.
Listening to this, Xu Mumu found it quite amusing. Huo Qingze seemed like a very filial son, treating his father this way. It seemed like he had grown independent and was preparing to bring his father down.
Thinking this, Xu Mumu asked out loud.
"Wifey, you guessed right. Huo Qingze is already preparing for this," Yin Yang chuckled. Huo Qingze was indeed planning it, not even bothering to hide it.
"Tsk tsk, his dad will probably be furious," Xu Mumu said, bursting into laughter. If she wasn’t worried about waking her son, she would have laughed out loud.
"That’s their issue," Yin Yang calmly said.
He wasn’t planning to get involved. This was the Huo Family’s matter, and the father-son conflict had been going on for decades.
Xu Mumu grinned, still curious about the outcome. She wondered how Huo Qingze, the filial son, planned to handle things after ousting his father.
"If you want to know, I’ll have someone inquire for you later," Yin Yang said, seeing the gossiping look on his wife’s face, knowing exactly what she was pondering.
