Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

He was holding a snack that he had prepared long ago and placed it on the table. “I’m sorry, I was a little slow.” fr eewebnovel.com

However, the shop that sold the pastries was very far from the Huo Family. It would definitely take a lot of time to go back and forth. Even if Huo Hong considered pursuing the matter, he might not notice the problem.

Moreover, he had no time to doubt this at all. His mind was filled with the reasons Murong Qiao had given just now.

Murong Qiao put down her phone and picked up a piece of pastry to eat. He didn’t forget to add,

“You’re so slow. I’m not hungry anymore.”

Although her voice was soft, it caused ripples in Huo Hong’s ears, causing his anger to double and he almost couldn’t suppress it.

He had spent so much effort to buy this little thing for her, but in the end, she only said this after receiving it?

Huo Hong frowned for a moment, his patience gradually disappearing.

Murong Qiao glanced at the butler at the side secretly. Then, her attitude suddenly changed. She looked at Huo Hong with a smile like a flower and finally got down to business.

“Actually, I’ve been talking for so long because I wanted to confirm Uncle Huo’s intentions. After all, I can’t marry into the Huo Family and suffer.” Murong Qiao revealed an appropriately embarrassed expression.

She seemed puzzled. “Since Huo Yichen isn’t present, I have something to ask Uncle.”

“Speak.” Seeing that Murong Qiao had revealed a chance, Huo Hong immediately suppressed his anger.

As long as the engagement could work, Huo Hong would have plenty of ways to vent his anger on Murong Qiao when she married over.

Murong Qiao asked casually, “Actually, what I said just now is true. I think it’s fine if Huo Yichen is only my boyfriend…

But as a marriage partner, I have to consider it carefully.” 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝙚𝒘𝙚𝙗𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝙢

She pretended to look at Huo Hong nervously, and Huo Hong naturally saw her expression.

Huo Hong immediately looked kind. “If you have any requests, just say them. If the Huo Family can satisfy them, we won’t neglect you.”

After hearing Huo Hong’s words, Murong Qiao slowly said what she wanted to say.

“Then, can I ask Uncle Huo who you prefer between Huo Yichen and Huo Xiuyuan?”

Murong Qiao looked at him curiously. “If we’re talking about understanding the two of them, no one knows them better than Uncle Huo.”

“This…” Huo Hong hesitated.

Coincidentally, Murong Qiao’s words poked the only soft piece of meat in his heart, triggering his memories of his son.

It was not Huo Yichen, nor was it Huo Xiuyuan. It was his biological son, Huo Yu.

Facing Murong Qiao’s seemingly unintentional question, Huo Hong suddenly fell silent because the first person he wanted to answer was Huo Yu.

“When choosing a husband, it naturally depends on your feelings,” Huo Hong said first.

“Huo Xiuyuan is naturally very pleasing to the eye. Although he’s still lacking in ability, he wouldn’t make people angry often…”

He forced a smile. “You and Huo Yichen have a relationship foundation. It’s naturally better for you to marry each other.”

The answer Huo Hong could give naturally did not change. He had always been firm about his intentions and turned his biasness to Huo Yichen.

However, there was still a moment when an impossible thought flashed across Huo Hong’s mind.

If Huo Yu was still around…
