The dishes were all out. Huo Jinyao took her bowl and put a bowl of soup in front of her. “Come on, taste it. You should eat more for we’ve given a gift.”
A glimmer of a smile appeared on Su Qingsang’s face.
This guy. I lose control of myself when I’m with him.
“Come on.” If someone overheard our conversation, they would believe we are slumdogs.
“It’s true.” Huo Jinyao uttered, with a serious expression. “I ask, did you give them a gift them just now?”
“Yes.”
“See, you gave them a gift, so did I. We should eat more. Otherwise we’ll suffer losses.”
Looking at Huo Jinyao, Su Qingsang couldn’t help but smile. She had no idea how to debate with him. How could this guy be so humorous?
“Alright, let’s eat more.”
Now that no one shared the table with them, they ignored their appearance. The way they ate was not that crazy, but it was kind of casual, without many courtesies.
Grandpa Li, sitting in a seat at the high table, glimpsed at Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao, finally relieved.
He’d like to be the Huo Family’s friend instead of their rival. Huo Jinyao seemed like he was not a family member of Huo Family. In some degree, that was fine.
As for Su Qingsang, now that she had gotten married and was no threat to Su Peizhen, he wouldn’t interfere with her business. The Li Family was not that harsh.
Su Qingsang had no idea about what he was thinking about. Under her husband’s gaze, she ate more food because she was being egged by Huo Jinyao.
When she walked out of the hotel, she touched her stomach and querulously glared at Huo Jinyao.
“This is all on you.”
“Why?”
“I was egged on by you and ate too much.” She wouldn’t have eaten that much if he hadn’t picked so much food for her and persuaded her to eat it.
“Really?” Huo Jinyao stopped and reached out his hand to touch Su Qingsang’s stomach. “Let me help you.”
“Don’t.”
Su Qingsang couldn’t stop him. Huo Jinyao touched her stomach.
His palm was broad and as warm as the day’s weather. Through a thin cloth, Su Qingsang could clearly feel Huo Jinyao touch her belly.
Su Qingsang blushed and took a step back, with an embarrassed expression. “Come on.”
Now that the gala was over, many people were leaving the hotel.
Holding her hand, Huo Jinyao uttered. “Come on? You said you ate too much.”
“Huo Jinyao.”
“Okay, honey. Let’s take a walk to help with digestion.”
“No.” The hotel was far from her apartment, so she wanted to quickly drive home. “I should work tomorrow.”
“Easy, we should not be so hasty.”
Pausing for a while, Huo Jinyao said, “I remember a park nearby. Now it is still early. Let’s have a walk and then go back home.”
Actually, Su Qingsang didn’t want to take a walk because she was kind of introverted.
“No.” Trying to avoid Huo Jinyao insisting, Su Qingsang tried to change the subject. “Are you not tired? What about going back home and having a rest?”
“Honey, does this mean you care about me?” Huo Jinyao asked and held Su Qingsang in his arms. “Honey, you do care about me. You are so nice.”
“Um…” I care about him? I am not admitting that.
As for Huo Jinyao, he was so happy that he picked up Su Qingsang and kissed her fiercely.
Thinking about the sight from an outsider’s perspective, Su Qingsang blushed.
“Let me get down.”
“My wife is so nice.” Another kiss on her face. “Honey, I’m not tired. I’m energetic to accompany you on a walk.”
Thinking for a while, Huo Jinyao added. “Baby, just believe me. I’m so energetic that I could ‘fight’ you for seven rounds. Let alone accompany you on a walk.”
“What…” Seven rounds? Su Qingsang was confused. Under Huo Jinyao’s affectionate gaze, she finally figured out what he had meant. After that, Su Qingsang blushed so hard it looked like her face was burning.
