Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband!-Chapter 790 - 791: Thirty-Six Strategies to Chase a Wife 1
"Who said that?!" Huo Shaohua frowned, his eyes turning cold.
"It was at the restaurant Daddy took me to last time. While you and Uncle Yuxi were talking to someone else, I saw the lady boss pointing at me, saying I was an illegitimate child and that my mom was shamelessly seducing Daddy!" Tianxin told her father everything, even raising her hand to mimic the lady boss.
"That woman must have eaten something bad. Don’t listen to her nonsense, alright?" Shaohua lovingly cupped his daughter’s face and gave it a gentle squeeze.
"Like how I overate?" Tianxin blinked her big eyes at her father.
"Yes, exactly like how you overate." Shaohua laughed heartily; his darling daughter was too cute.
However, that restaurant soon went out of business.
"Daddy, when are you going to take me to the amusement park? You haven’t taken me out to play for a long time." Tianxin pouted unhappily; her dad hadn’t played with her in ages.
"After these few busy days at work, I’ll take you and Mommy out to play, okay?" Shaohua explained with a bit of guilt; it had indeed been a long time since he spent time with his daughter.
Lately, the company had been very busy, with late night overtime being the norm.
By the time he got home, both his wife and daughter would already be asleep.
When he left in the morning, they would still be sleeping; apart from meal times, he barely saw them.
"Okay." Tianxin nodded happily.
When Tianxin was taking her afternoon nap, Shaohua returned to the company to start working.
Tian Xingyun stayed in the side hall looking at the financial ledgers; after an afternoon of this, her eyes hurt.
The Huo family’s daily expenses were enormous; even buying a few things would cost several thousand.
Every time she saw these numbers, she couldn’t help but sigh.
The expenses for just one day would be enough for them to work hard for several days in Huatan Village.
Finally, she finished balancing the accounts by dinner time.
Looking at these ledgers, she let out a long breath; Grandma used to work so hard.
She never helped out and made Grandma so tired; she felt so terrible!
"Mom!"
"What’s up?" Tian Xingyun turned her head and saw Tianxin pulling Ziyang along.
This girl really loved Ziyang; she would stick to him whenever he had free time.
"Mom, we’re hungry!"
"Why don’t you go ask Grandma Liu if we can eat now?"
"I don’t want to go! Mom, you go." Tianxin led Ziyang into the side hall and pulled him down onto the sofa.
She kicked off her shoes and settled on the sofa, beginning to play with her toys.
The side hall was full of her toys, and none of them were the same.
Her toys filled up an entire room; once, while playing hide and seek with Dad,
she deliberately ran to the toy room and hid among the toys, making Dad search for a long time.
Worried that she was missing, the whole family started to look for her.
In the end... she came out herself because she was hungry.
She even blamed Dad for not looking for her, making her stay hidden for so long!
Shaohua was once again fooled by his daughter; he was at a loss whether to laugh or cry!
Should he praise his daughter for being smart, or...
"Young Madam." Ziyang greeted Tian Xingyun lightly.
"Ziyang, it must be annoying for you as Tianxin is always sticking to you." Xingyun smiled apologetically.
"Little Miss is very cute," Ziyang glanced at Tianxin and replied.
"It’s Tianxin!" Tianxin corrected Brother Ziyang.
"Yes, Ziyang, we’re all part of the family so there’s no need to call her Little Miss. Just call her Tianxin." Xingyun responded; Ziyang, Uncle Liu, and Aunt Liu were all considered part of the family.
It felt quite awkward and unnatural for her to hear them call her Young Madam all the time.
"Okay!" Ziyang nodded. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
With Tianxin around, the old house was always lively in the evenings, making Housekeeper Liu and Aunt Liu very happy.
Second Master Huo often came by to stay over; he adored this little great-granddaughter.
