My Sloppy Husband Is Actually a Handsome Bigshot!-Chapter 302 - 285 Unexpected Guest 1

Sure enough, He Mingzhu immediately perked up her ears, looking curious.

She no longer asked about what happened to her mouth.

"What exactly is it?" He Mingzhu widened her eyes, waiting for He Zhenxin to enlighten her.

In He Zhenxin’s eyes, her expression looked remarkably like their Fourth Aunt Lin Peipei.

"Didn’t you notice Fourth Aunt’s face looks awful?" He Zhenxin lowered her voice and whispered.

He Mingzhu and He Mengxue’s eyes instantly darted towards Fourth Aunt Lin Peipei.

Lin Peipei was never good at hiding her emotions, and with He Zhenxin’s mention, He Mingzhu and He Mengxue indeed found that her face looked particularly bad.

"Why is that? Don’t keep us in suspense!"

He Mingzhu only felt itchy inside, almost anxious to death.

However, He Mengxue seemed thoughtful, plotting something unknown in her mind.

"All I can say is, tonight’s good news is related to your family, but as for the rest..."

He Mingzhu widened her eyes, related to her family?

"Some secrets are not to be revealed!" After saying this, He Zhenxin lowered her head and started playing with her phone again.

"Hmph, who cares about knowing!" He Mingzhu felt she was being played by He Zhenxin and couldn’t help but snort.

Yet, He Mengxue gave a deep look at He Zhenxin, her brows slightly furrowed...

How come she knew something they didn’t?

Just then, He Yaru from Fourth Uncle’s family came back carrying a cello.

She had just returned from collaborating with the symphony on a tour.

"Second Sis, Third Sis...hello..."

"Zhenxin... hello..."

He Yaru looked down, saying this, and carried her cello upstairs.

"Spooky, enough to scare someone to death."

He Mingzhu pouted. If there was someone in the family she dislikes first, it’s He Zhenxin, and the second would be He Yaru.

"Who are you talking about?" Fourth Aunt Lin Peipei suddenly spoke up.

Only then did He Mingzhu remember she was still there and couldn’t help but stick out her tongue, not daring to speak again...

Lin Tuantuan let out a yowl.

Startling Oscar, who was asleep; it jumped high, hugging its tail.

"Daddy, Mommy added me on WeChat!" Lin Tuantuan ran over to Li Yanan like holding a treasure, holding the phone high.

Li Yanan took it.

First, he opened her profile picture.

In the endless yellow sand, she stood there alone.

The light gauze for sun protection flying behind her, black eyes clear, face cold and lonely.

Set apart from the world.

He continued to open her moments, because there was no privacy setting from Lin Tuantuan, Li Yanan could easily see all her photos.

Through the years, she had been to many places.

Pakistan, Spain, Egypt, Thailand, Johannesburg, Vienna, etc...

Even in war-torn Syria, she left her footprints.

Knock, knock, knock...

There was a knocking at the hospital room door, causing Li Yanan to regain his impassive look.

"Come in."

Assistant Mike walked in.

"The car is ready."

When Mr. He was invited downstairs, he still had a face full of smiles.

He specifically instructed the kitchen to make a few more dishes tonight and ordered an extra chair beside him.

The long walnut-colored dining table was now filled with a variety of delicious-looking dishes, with an exquisite balance of meat and vegetarian dishes.

According to the order of seniority, He Zhenxin naturally went to sit at the far end of the dining table.

She discreetly swept her gaze over the seated family members.

Truly, it was a mix of joy and sorrow, the entirety of life’s drama displayed on this small rectangular table.

But how does that concern her?

"Zhenxin, is your mother not here yet?" Mr. He was not angry, only because his guest had not arrived yet either.

"She said she was at the airport picking someone up when I called, she should be here soon."

He Zhenxin didn’t call Suzan He directly, but called her assistant, Hu Po.

"Picking someone up? Who?"

Mr. He’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, seeming not to have heard Suzan He mention it.

"Just mentioned an important guest." After He Zhenxin said this, the scene quieted down a bit.

"What kind of guest, more important than family!" with a snort, Mr. He’s face changed.

"Dad, this guest, I invited specially for you."

As she was speaking, Suzan He’s voice rang out from outside the dining room.

With Suzan He’s voice, the faces of the assembled family at the table changed again.

Some were wary, some disdainful, some indifferent, and some...

Soon, Suzan He appeared in the dining room, accompanied by He Bainian and...

"Master Zhi Hai? Vietnam’s Master Zhi Hai?" Mr. He stood up abruptly.

Master Zhi Hai?

Upon hearing this name, even He Zhenxin felt as if struck by lightning, slowly raising her head.

"Mr. He, how have you been?"

The appearance of Zhi Hai was unexpected to everyone.

Of course, the big name of Zhi Hai was known to all.

Even in New York, many wealthy Chinese offered large sums to invite him for a fortune telling.

But regardless of how high the bid, Zhi Hai politely declined them all.

Leaving no hope at all.

"Good! Good! Well done, Little Six’s family!"

Mr. He was clearly excited, promptly instructing the servant to add another chair.

Meanwhile, another voice came from outside.

This time, it was a guest personally invited by Mr. He.

"Mr. He..." As this voice started, He Zhenxin suddenly opened her eyes wide.

Even Suzan He and He Bainian’s expressions slightly changed...

A conspicuous pairing of a tall figure, a short one, and a husky.

The husky even wore a red bow tie on its neck.

"Ma..." Lin Tuantuan’s gaze spotted He Zhenxin in the crowd, just about to run over, when someone lifted him by the neck.

His whole body dangled in the air, only hands and feet struggling hard.

He looked more like a turtle flipped on its back from the observer’s eyes.

He Mingzhu immediately let out a chortle, which was toned down considerably after her mom hit her hand.

He Mengxue’s eyes...

Fixedly landed on Li Yanan’s face, unable to move away.

She had never seen such a handsome and charming man!

"Oscar."

"Awooo!" Oscar stood still as soon as it heard Li Yanan call its name.

"Watch him." Li Yanan placed Lin Tuantuan back on the ground, and Oscar swiftly moved forward, biting Lin Tuantuan’s pant leg.

Not letting him run wild!

"Elliott, finally, you’re here!" Mr. He’s smile seemed almost uncontainable.

With joy in the third family, Master Zhi Hai’s visit, and now Elliott’s arrival, it was more delightful than his own birthday.

Elliott?

Hearing this name, except for Suzan He and He Bainian, everyone else’s expressions immediately changed!

Even He Zhenxin instinctively looked towards Li Yanan’s direction.

Li Yanan is...Elliott?

Is he the one who specifically requested her for the VF magazine photo shoot?

He Zhenxin pursed her lips, inadvertently touching the place where her lip was cracked, her gaze drifting subconsciously towards Li Yanan...

Although there were no visible marks without a careful look, He Zhenxin still...

Noticed a chapped spot on his lips as well.

Feeling guilty, nervously looking away, she then saw Lin Tuantuan winking at her while Oscar had his pant leg.

"Master Zhi Hai and Mr. Elliott, please take your seats quickly, or the food will get cold."

The voice came from Second Uncle He Jingshen, also He Mengxue’s father.

"What are you waiting for? Aren’t you going to add seats for our honored guests beside me?"

He Jingshen said, nudging his daughter under the table.

He Mengxue then came to her senses, her young face flushed red.

Suzan He caught those little actions in her eyes, a cold gleam flashing through her eyes, instinctively looking towards Zhenxin’s direction with concern.

But seeing her with her head down, seemingly indifferent.

Suzan He’s heart was half at ease now.

In fact, standing beside Suzan He, He Bainian knew better than anyone.

It wasn’t that Zhenxin was without reaction?

It was because she had too much reaction and hence kept her head down, not looking in this direction.

Suzan He’s heart just relieved, yet she swept through the plotting He family members with a cold look, realizing that Li Yanan now appeared as a piece of fat meat, eyed by all.

Thinking of this, she felt a sudden rise of another feeling of schadenfreude.

After all, Li Yanan’s choice...

"Daddy, Tuantuan wants to sit over there... Tuantuan wants to sit..." Lin Tuantuan’s words were interrupted by Li Yanan’s cold gaze.

"Tuantuan wants to sit next to pretty sister!"

Pouting, swallowing the word ’Mommy’ back down in grievance.

"Hey? Want to sit next to me? I won’t, I detest little brats!"

Hearing ’pretty sister’, He Mingzhu immediately included herself into the narrative.

As soon as He Mingzhu opened her mouth, all faces bore embarrassment.

Not so coincidentally, Oscar’s tongue got caught on Lin Tuantuan’s pant zipper, and with a retching sound, Oscar started gagging.

"Sorry, our dog’s stomach isn’t well," Li Yanan earnestly spoke nonsense.

"Yeah, yeah, Oscar has a weak stomach, can’t stand nauseating stuff!"

Lin Tuantuan nodded repeatedly, adding another jab.

After speaking, Lin Tuantuan scurried over to He Zhenxin’s side, looking up at her.

In his clear eyes, it seemed like stars were twinkling.

"Pretty sister, can Tuantuan sit next to you?"

As soon as Lin Tuantuan said this, He Mengxue’s face instantly turned sour, instinctively glancing towards Li Yanan.

Actually, He Mengxue had long heard from her mother, that her grandfather had been keen to befriend a wealthy businessman with a child, even considering choosing one among the sisters...

Initially, she was extremely resistant, even concocted strategies.

But no matter how much she planned, she never expected Elliott to be so handsome?

"Add a chair." Not waiting for He Zhenxin to reply, He Bainian had already asked a servant to place a newly moved chair beside her.

Suzan He glanced at He Bainian, seeing him subtly looking at Mr. He at the head of the table.
