My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day

Chapter 722: 722, Grandparent-Grandchild Magic Duel

When they arrived at the residence in District X, they immediately saw Huo Qinyu sitting in the living room.

“Ashen, Wanwan, you’re here.”

Su Wanwan nodded at her, “Auntie.”

Looking around, why hadn’t Xing Siqing arrived?

Sure enough, most likely hearing the commotion, the balcony door opened and Xing Siqing, dressed in a pink princess dress, walked in.

“Sister-in-law, big brother, you’re here.”

Looking at her sweet smile, Su Wanwan felt deeply unsettled.

To be honest.

She would rather Xing Siqing was as straightforward as she used to be, expressing her emotions freely.

Now her fawning behavior was just fake. Smiling like a sunflower, who knows what wicked thought is brewing in her mind.

“Big brother.” Xing Siqing quickly sat down next to the sofa, almost cooing, “I got promoted yesterday, and now I’m a sales manager.”

Huo Jingshen raised his eyebrow, “Is that so?”

Xing Siqing’s smile froze slightly, “Big brother, aren’t you going to praise me?”

Since she joined one of Huo Yuan’s property projects as a sales girl, she initially felt very wronged. But after witnessing many incidents, she came to understand that Huo Jingshen was unmoved by sentiment, caring little for so-called brotherly affection.

So, she came to terms with it and leveraged her connections to push sales. Due to her excellent performance, she was quickly made a regular employee, and now she’s been promoted to a manager.

She came today to ask for a reward from the old man, and also arranged for Lady Huo to call Huo Jingshen home for dinner, all in hope for some praise. But…

“Alright.” Huo Qinyu intervened, “You’ll have to work hard in the future, understood?”

Xing Siqing nodded with a smile, “I will. I misunderstood big brother before. I only now realize that he was doing what was best for me. Over the past few months, I’ve learned a lot from working in sales, and have grown a lot. Brother, I’m really grateful.”

Su Wanwan: “…”

What a polite speech.

Even she heard the dissatisfaction and mockery in it.

Shockingly, Huo Jingshen didn’t seem to mind, “I used to think you were only growing older, not wiser. It’s reassuring to see that you’ve come to this realization in just half a year. As your brother, I’m quite comforted.”

*Cough cough cough.* Su Wanwan hastily lowered her head, concealing her laughter with a cough.

Huo Qinyu looked rather embarrassed.

Xing Siqing could barely breathe due to the surprise, nearly choking herself.

Luckily, Lady Huo came out of the kitchen at this time, “Everyone, wash your hands. It’s time for dinner.”

At the dinner table.

When everyone was seated, a servant brought over a crock and placed it directly in front of Huo Jingshen.

Fu Ziyang curiously looked over, Lady Huo quickly put some celery in his bowl, “Ziyang, eat more celery. It helps you grow taller.”

Fu Ziyang moved his gaze away and continued to eat his celery.

“Sister-in-law, I reckon your third-year university studies are not as demanding?” Xing Siqing suddenly asked.

“Yeah, I’m currently busy with my internship and exams.”

“Can you attend my birthday party tomorrow night, then?” Xing Siqing immediately asked.

Su Wanwan calmly replied after sipping her soup, “I’d better not. I don’t know any of your friends.”

“How can that be? We are all of similar age. You might not know them now, but you will have to know them eventually. I’ve invited all our cousins.” Having said that, Xing Siqing turned to Huo Jingshen, “Brother, can you make it to the party?”

Huo Jingshen was looking at the bull pizzle soup in front of him.

Upon hearing this, without raising his eyes, he replied, “I’m busy.”

Xing Siqing: “…”

**

After dinner, Lady Huo excitedly took Huo Jingshen upstairs, while Master Huo took Fu Ziyang out for a stroll.

Su Wanwan took out an English proficiency mock exam from her bag.

A few minutes later, Huo Qinyu felt awkward and got up, “Siqing, let’s go home.”

Su Wanwan looked up, with an innocent smile on her face, “Auntie, I won’t see you out.”

“No need, no need, just focus on your studies.” Huo Qinyu gave a strained laugh, and quickly led Xing Siqing away.

Once they were outside, Xing Siqing began to lose her temper, “Mom, they were way too rude! I kindly invited them to my birthday party, and look at them… ”

“Enough.” Huo Qinyu interrupted her in a low voice. After looking around, she continued, “Wasn’t the embarrassment at the charity event enough for you? If Wanwan doesn’t want to come, let it be. If you truly want to be her friend, take your time.”

Xing Siqing didn’t say anything.

The idea of wanting to make friends with Su Wanwan never crossed her mind.

She was just trying to humiliate Su Wanwan at her birthday party tomorrow, where Ming Haijuan and Ming Hailan, as well as several cousins from the Xing Family, were going to be present. But this brat refused her invitation in public.

Humph.

You may avoid the 1st day of the lunar month, but can you avoid the 15th?

She refused to believe that Su Wanwan would never attend a gathering within their social circle.

Second floor of the Huo Family residence.

In the bedroom, the elderly Mrs. Huo is smiling in a mischievous way, “Ashen, have you and Wanwan… have you done…that?”

Huo Jingshen furrows his handsome eyebrows, “Which thing?”

“That thing ah!” Mrs. Huo makes a pinching gesture in mid-air, alluding variously with her eyes, “I’ll tell you, from today onwards, you are not allowed to do that anymore!”

Huo Jingshen: “…”

Seeing her grandson silently agree, Mrs. Huo is relieved and looks at Huo Jingshen with increasing satisfaction.

Tsk tsk tsk, her own grandson is indeed so handsome!

That height, that face, and that temperament!

If he and Wanwan have another great-grandson, wouldn’t he look as beautiful as a doll in a New Year’s painting?

Lately, she has been really irritated by Old Chu. Ever since the recognition banquet, the old man has been flaunting his darling great-granddaughter all over the big courtyard every day, repeatedly wishing for May 20th to come quickly. He claimed that once Chu Xiuhuang and Shi Huan got married, he would immediately want another great-grandson to hold.

Although Mr. Huo didn’t say anything, Mrs. Huo understands her own husband. This feeling is like the tortoise and the hare racing – they, being the hare, just dozed off and not only did they get overtaken by the tortoise, when they got to the finish line, they found that the tortoise had even laid another egg!

Who can stand that?

“Grandma? What are you thinking?” Jingshen watched the elderly Mrs. Huo with a touch of inquisitiveness in his eyes.

Mrs. Huo quickly returns from her thoughts, “No, nothing… it’s getting late, do not go back tonight, just sleep here, I have prepared Wanwan’s pajamas.”

Having said that, patting his shoulder, she solemnly adds, “You’re not allowed to do that tonight.”

Huo Jingshen again: “…”

After his grandmother finally left, he went to the bedside, pulled the drawer open and then opened the cabinet door.

As expected, the stuff prepared a few days ago was all gone.

Upon further checking in his wardrobe, he found several new pajamas on the top. He picked one up to find that they were all lacey, see-through… pajamas.

Huo Jingshen: “…..”

After massaging his forehead for a moment, he turned around and went downstairs.

…

The living room was quiet, with Huo Qinyu and Xing Siqing already gone. Su Wanwan was working diligently on her assignment at the coffee table.

Seeing, Huo Jingshen come down, she lifted her head to ask, “Where are you going?”

“To get something.”

“Oh.” Su Wanwan didn’t think much about it, and carried on with her work.

After a while.

When she heard footsteps, she looked up to find Huo Jingshen holding several boxes of contraceptives, snapping her black pen in the process.

Holy shit.

“What are you up to?” Su Wanwan quickly got up and checked around, acting like a thief.

Just as she was about to speak, footsteps suddenly rang out from the vestibule.Update by n0vgo.c0

Panic-stricken, Su Wanwan quickly grabbed the things from Huo Jingshen’s hands, shoved them into her clothes, and started to run upstairs.

Meanwhile, Mr. Huo’s stern voice rang out behind them, “What are you two up to?”

How scandalous!

They’re already embracing each other in the living room at such an early hour?

Covering the front of her clothes, Su Wanwan quickly nodded at Mr. Huo, and bolted upstairs.

As for Huo Jingshen,

He glanced at Mr. Huo and then at his little grandson standing next to him, “Grandpa, my wife is shy, so be mindful not to suddenly pop out like that in the future.”

After saying that, he too turned around and went upstairs.

Mr. Huo clutched his chest, almost spitting up blood in anger.

With a great effort, he restrained himself and shouted, “You cheeky boy, this is my house!”

Upstairs, when Huo Jingshen came up, Su Wanwan asked him, “What’s wrong with Grandpa?”

“Nothing.”

“…Oh.” After Su Wanwan went into the room and threw the things aside, she began demanding, “Why did you bring so much?”

Huo Jingshen answered candidly, “Because Grandma confiscated everything in the room.”

Su Wanwan: “…”

After locking the door, the man walks over, “Baby, I just drank a pot of bull penis soup.”

“Can’t you drink a little less?” she asked

Just as I expected!
