After Marrying the Officer-Chapter 1110 - 16

When Huo Zhongcheng returned home, Liu Yingying had already left.

As soon as Su Susu saw Huo Zhongcheng, she approached and complained, "Old Huo, you are something else. It’s hard for Yingying to visit even once a year, and you didn’t come to accompany the child. You really are..."

"Accompany the child?" Huo Zhongcheng laughed at those words, "Su Susu, I can’t believe you said that."

Hearing this, Su Susu immediately replied, "What’s so unbelievble about that? Liu Yingying is the daughter of Mr. Liu. Who knows, she might be the nation’s first daughter in the future. What’s wrong with befriending her a bit more?"

Huo Zhongcheng gave Su Susu a glance, his eyes filled with even more disappointment.

But he was too lazy to argue with her and said, "Suit yourself, just don’t regret it later."

"You reap what you sow." Huo Zhongcheng said calmly.

"Old Huo, you..." Upon hearing Huo Zhongcheng’s words, Su Susu began to feel wronged again and said, "Who am I doing all this for? Isn’t it for the sake of our family!"

"If I refuse Yingying and Mr. Liu gets that position in the future, wouldn’t he target our family?" Su Susu argued confidently.

Hearing this, Huo Zhongcheng shook his head and said, "Just wait and see."

After saying that, he no longer paid attention to her.

Soon, Xia Chuyi and Huo Shiqian set the date to visit the Huo Family.

On that day, Huo Zhongcheng specifically sent Su Susu out, asking her to visit Huo Qing and Huo Lang at school.

Not long after Su Lili left, Xia Chuyi and Huo Shiqian arrived at the Huo Family.

"You’re here?" Huo Zhongcheng looked at the young couple kindly and said, "Sit down, I’ll get something for you."

After speaking, he instructed his trusted subordinate to bring out a box.

Seeing Huo Zhongcheng like this, Xia Chuyi was full of confusion.

But Huo Shiqian’s expression turned very complex upon seeing the box.

"Shiqian, did you recognize it?" Huo Zhongcheng pointed to the box and said to Huo Shiqian, "That’s right, these are some of your mother’s dowry items from back then."

"The mark of the Bao Family is still on this box." Huo Zhongcheng sighed.

Hearing this, Huo Shiqian pursed his lips without speaking.

Xia Chuyi looked from one to the other, not understanding what the father and son meant.

But soon, Huo Zhongcheng explained to Xia Chuyi, "Chuyi, let me explain it to you."

"This box contains the dowry items that Shiqian’s mother brought from the Bao Family." Huo Zhongcheng sighed, "According to the situation back then, these things should have been confiscated by the authorities."

"However, I managed to keep them, and they’ve been hidden safely all these years."

"I remember back then, Shiqian’s mother said that if Shiqian ever got married, all these items should go to his wife..." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

At this point, Huo Zhongcheng seemed to pause in recollection before continuing, "Now, you two have registered your marriage and are going to hold a wedding, so this box of items is yours, as Shiqian’s mother intended, Chuyi."

Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi immediately looked at Huo Shiqian, unsure if she should accept them.

Huo Shiqian’s expression was somewhat calm, and after a while, he nodded slightly to Xia Chuyi and said, "You should take them."

Then he turned to Huo Zhongcheng and said, "Thank you, Father."

Seeing this, Xia Chuyi also nodded and said, "Thank you, Uncle."

In response, Huo Zhongcheng smiled and said, "Still calling me Uncle?"

Xia Chuyi blushed slightly and said, "Thank you, Dad."
