Accompanying Song Yi for a few days, he returned to the country to inspect the branches.
This time, he thoroughly inspected all the branches.
He completely restructured the Huo Group.
The head office was handed over to Hu Yuxi to manage alone.
After two months, he finally finished inspecting all the branches.
Just as he sat down in his office, his phone rang.
The caller was his grandmother: "Grandma, what’s the matter?"
"You brat, come home immediately!" Grandma angrily commanded upon learning that he finished his inspection and called him right away.
It was outrageous; he left home for two months the day after their wedding and hadn’t returned.
He had said it was to deal with company matters, but now everything was settled.
And still, he wouldn’t come home! It was utterly unacceptable.
"Got it, I’ll be back soon." Huo Shaohua responded, already knowing why his grandmother wanted him home.
At his grandma’s insistence, Huo Shaohua finally went home at noon.
Back at the Huo family house, as he walked into the living room, he bumped into Tian Xingyun, who was about to leave.
"You’re back." Tian Xingyun smiled at him; he had been on a business trip for two months, right?
To avoid seeing her, he was willing to put himself through the hardship of traveling.
"Hmm." Huo Shaohua responded coolly.
"Then I’ll make something for you." Tian Xingyun smiled lightly and turned towards the kitchen.
Huo Shaohua was about to say he didn’t need her to cook, but his attention was drawn to her belly.
"Wait a moment!" He strode over, standing in front of her, looking closer.
"What’s wrong?" Tian Xingyun was slightly taken aback; she hadn’t said anything wrong, had she?
"You... your belly..." Huo Shaohua stuttered, too shocked to speak.
Her belly had changed a lot; it was flat when he left.
Now it was obvious she was pregnant; her belly was very big.
She was originally very thin, making her belly appear even larger.
"What’s wrong with my belly?" Tian Xingyun grew nervous; could there be something wrong with the baby?
"It wasn’t this big when I left." Huo Shaohua said seriously, his eyes fixed on her belly.
"It was only three months then, now that it’s over five months, of course, it’s gotten bigger." Tian Xingyun laughed, realizing that’s what he meant.
"Hmm." Huo Shaohua felt a bit embarrassed, glanced at her belly, then walked towards the stairs.
Tian Xingyun smiled helplessly and slowly walked to the kitchen to cook for him.
He didn’t care about her and the baby, so his reaction was over the top.
If Song Yi were pregnant, he would probably accompany her every day.
She touched her belly, feeling inexplicably sad.
He disliked her, so he also disliked the baby.
At that moment, the baby moved, and Tian Xingyun immediately smiled.
Without him, she and the baby could still be very happy.
Putting away her sadness, she went into the kitchen to start cooking.
Huo Shaohua returned to the room; it looked much like before.
But there were some subtle changes, with more baby items around the room.
There were toys on the bed, and baby clothes.
He picked up the baby clothes from the bed, thinking of Tian Xingyun’s big belly.
He felt inexplicably happy; these were clothes for the baby to wear.
"Buzz~" His phone vibrated.
The caller was Song Yi; he had just left Paris yesterday.
"Miss me already?" Huo Shaohua answered the call, sitting on the bed holding the baby clothes.
They were soft and comfortable, with little socks beside them.
"Who’s missing you? I just wanted to ask if you were home yet?" Song Yi smiled happily.
They had spent a lot of time together over the past two months, and the earlier feeling that he had changed seemed like a misperception.
It turned out they shouldn’t be apart too long, or she’d start imagining things.
