Su Wanwan’s little heart also made a “thud” sound along with the sound of the lock.
The man’s deep voice rang out, “Baby, have you noticed anything different about this room?”
“Huh?” Su Wanwan looked up, her clear, contrasting phoenix eyes scanned the room in surprise.
Then…
“The bed has been changed?”
“Hmm, grandma personally selected another bed, using grandpa’s personal funds.”
Su Wanwan was baffled.
Last time I came home for dinner, granny had mentioned that the house was poorly soundproofed, she even said the noises we made were too loud and suggested getting a new and better bed.
Didn’t expect her to actually go through with it, and the new bed is gigantic!
At a glance, it looked big enough to hold four adults!
This…
“Isn’t it too big?” blurted out Su Wanwan.
“Too big?” Huo Jingshen narrowed his eyes, “Why do I feel like it’s not big enough? Do you want to try it out right now?”
Try it out right now?
Su Wanwan was like a cat that stepped on its tail, firmly pushing him away, “You jerk! You wouldn’t be thinking about that now, would you? It’s only three in the afternoon, at least wait until night!”
Huo Jingshen looked at her, his gaze intent, “Okay, we’ll try it out tonight then, I’ll listen to you, baby.”
Su Wanwan, “…”
Damn, why was he suddenly listening to her?
Grinding her teeth, clenching her fists, she held back for a long time, but finally couldn’t resist, “You old fart! Shameless!”
“Who did you call an old fart?” Huo Jingshen instantly frowned.
He could put up with anything.
But talking about age?
Sorry, he couldn’t tolerate that.
Huo Jingshen scooped up the little lady into his arms.
“Ahhhhhh…”
A hand covered her mouth, and Huo Jingshen, with his eyes half-closed, reminded her, “Although we have a new bed now, the room hasn’t been renovated yet, and the soundproofing is still inadequate.”
“Woo woo! Woo woo!” Su Wanwan’s eyes widened, her delicate eyelashes trembling constantly, even though her mouth was covered, she was still fervently resisting.
But everyone was downstairs, either playing mahjong or watching TV, or playing chess, who could hear the noises upstairs?
Huo Jingshen chuckled and reminded her again, “Right, Nuanyang’s room is right next door.”
Su Wanwan’s mouth clamped shut immediately, not daring to make any more noise.
He’s the most innocent and upright soldier in the world, after all!
The sweetest person in the world!
It would be terrible if he overheard them.
Even so, the earlier scream had still slipped out through the door, and Fu Qi, who had just come upstairs, heard everything.
She was called up by Mingzhu to fetch Huo Nuanyang downstairs for a game of mahjong. She thought she could catch a glimpse of Huo Jingshen and see what his room looked like since he lived there all his life.
Who knew she would hear that as soon as she came up…
Even though the sound was short, she still heard it.
Fu Qi stood there, clutching her fingers, her little face turning white. She froze for a long time before she stomped downstairs in a huff.
In the living room, Mingzhu saw her and immediately asked, “Miss Fu, did you see my son?”
“No.” Fu Qi shook her head and walked straight past the living room to the outside of the villa.
She didn’t have an overcoat, and the weather in Nancheng was particularly dry and cold today.
However, Fu Qi seemed to be oblivious to this, and paced around the villa nonstop. Finally, she ended up at the back of the villa. Finding nobody around, she took out her phone and made an international call.
As soon as it connected, she complained tearfully to the person on the other end, “Sister-in-law, I’m really upset.”
“What’s the matter?” Xiu Xin’s gentle voice came over the line, “Are you not happy in Nancheng?”
“I’m not happy.” Fu Qi pouted, wanting to cry. “I came here to live with Ziyang. There’s a maid to cook every day, but I never see Jingshen. Every time I do, he’s with that woman!”
“Aren’t you guys living together?”
“No.” Fu Qi was angered by this.
The last time she came to Nancheng, at least she got to stay in the same villa with Huo Jingshen. This time, they had a place ready in the same residential area.
How could such a luxurious vacant villa be available in the Tianquan Royal Court where every inch of land is precious? Surely, this villa was bought by Huo Jingshen.
Which means, it was prepared far in advance!
She must have known she wanted to stay in Nancheng for a while, and Su Wanwan would have blew in Huo Jingshen’s ear, not wanting her to live in the same villa!
This is utterly treacherous!
They’re acting as if she’s a thief trying to steal something!
“Sister-in-law, I’m really upset. I really, really like Jingshen. Can you help me?”
Xiu Xin sighed, “Fu Qi, emotional matters can’t be helped by others.”
“But I’m really upset…”
“I have things to do, Fu Qi. You need to listen to Jingshen and not cause trouble for him, okay?”
“Oh.” Fu Qi pursed her lips, “Sister-in-law, can I ask you one last question?”
“What is it?”
Fu Qi asked, “Sister-in-law, how did you and my big brother get together?”
She remembered her big brother had always liked Jinghua, but inexplicably, Jinghua disappeared five years ago and her brother quickly married Xiu Xin. Not long after, they brought home the then infant Fu Ziyang.
