Recently, Lin Wanli had been fond of sour food, but Seventh Aunt was not good at it. Therefore, the pregnant woman who was just over three months pregnant asked around like a glutton about the delicious restaurants in Lutai. In the end, she found a famous private kitchen in Jinzhou.

After Huo Jiuxiao came back, he took the glutton to a private restaurant overnight. However, he didn’t expect that the arrival of the two of them would add a lot of topics and discussions to the restaurant.

After the reorganization of the Huo Corporation, the entire Huo family changed. The voices that mocked Huo Jiuxiao for returning to the Huo family to seize power no longer had any tricks up their sleeves. After all, who would take his wife and daughter and leave the Huo family immediately after taking revenge? He would reject the rich shares one after another and only ask the Huo Corporation to leave him alone.

On the other hand, the Huo Corporation’s shareholders had come to ask for help a few times, but they were all chased out by Huo Jiuxiao’s bodyguards. This way, there would be even more legends about him. It was rumored that he was deeply loved by Xu Chonglou and was the successor that Xu Chonglou valued. It was also rumored that he was violent and did some shady things for Xu Chonglou. It was even rumored that he and Lin Wan divorced. After all, the difference in their family background and status was huge.

Therefore, when the two of them appeared in the restaurant, both the customers and the waiters looked at them curiously.

At this moment, Lin Wanli was wearing a beige sweater and a light brown skirt. Her long hair was loose, and she looked lazy with a hint of French style. Huo Jiuxiao, who was opposite her, was still in a suit and leather shoes because he had just finished work.

Lin Wanli held her chin and looked at Huo Jiuxiao. She smiled and said in her heart.

“Hubby, I want to eat very sour fruits, the very sour kind.”

“No, Seventh Aunt said that you’ve been eating too much fruit recently. Aren’t you afraid of a toothache?”

“I checked my teeth properly. There’s no problem.”

Master Xiao opened the menu and placed it in front of Lin Wanli. He then waved at the nearest waiter.

“What do you need, Mr. Huo?” The waiter quickly walked over and asked.

“Is there any fresh fruit in the kitchen?”

“Yes, yes. I’ll get someone to prepare it for you immediately.”

“No need. Take me directly to the kitchen.”

The waiter was surprised, but he still brought Huo Jiuxiao to the kitchen. A few minutes later, he returned to his seat with a fruit platter and placed a juicy strawberry in front of Lin Wanli.

At this moment, another boy came over from the waiter who was serving Huo Jiuxiao and Huo Jingtang. He pointed at the two of them with his chin and said, “Didn’t you say that Huo Jiuxiao couldn’t hear you? There are even rumors that the two of them are getting a divorce.”

The waiter shook his head and said excitedly, “I don’t know if you can hear me. Anyway, we can communicate without any obstacles.” As for the divorce…In my next life, after Huo Jiuxiao entered the kitchen, he rolled up his expensive suit sleeves and personally went to the fruit and vegetable rack to pick strawberries. The choice didn’t count, and he had to wash them himself. He looked like he was doing housework to serve his wife at home.”

“Could it be an act?”

“Who is he acting for? Us? What is his status and what is our status? Anyway, I think these two are very loving.”

Not far away, Lin Wanli picked up a strawberry and put it in her mouth. However, before she ate it, she handed it to Huo Jiuxiao. “Master, have one. Help me test if it’s sour.”

Huo Jiuxiao knew what she was trying to do. He took a bite of the strawberry and said, “It’s sour.”

Lin Wanli held back her laughter and stopped eating the strawberries. “I don’t want to eat anymore;”

“Hmm?” Uncle Xiao raised his eyebrows.

“You make me feel so sweet.”

“Then let’s not eat.” Huo Jiuxiao took the strawberries away for her, then placed the hot milk the waiter had brought back in front of her.

A moment later, the dishes were served in the kitchen. Lin Wanli took a few mouthfuls and her eyes widened in surprise. She kept praising this restaurant’s dishes. Huo Jiuxiao served her the dishes, wiped his hands, and called the waiter over.

“Go invite the boss.”

The waiter panicked and could not help but stutter, “Huo…Mr. Huo, is there a problem?”

“My wife said that the taste is not bad, so I’ll buy the restaurant at three times the price.”

The waiter was speechless.

It looked like they were getting a divorce.

To hell with all the gossip!

Lin Wanli laughed as she ate. She was overjoyed. “If you continue like this, there will be new rumors. They will say that our great Master Xiao is a slave who harasses his ears and spoils his wife.”

“Then if we want to confirm it, do we have to buy all the way?”

This time, Lin Wanli laughed even louder.

t was because Master Xiao knew about this rumor that he was so high-profile. He wanted this f*cking world to respect and be friendly to his little wife when he was busy and did not accompany her.

Lin Wanli had a full meal and was in a good mood. After paying the bill, she couldn’t move at all.

“Is it better to carry her or carry her?” Huo Jiuxiao asked as he walked up to her.

“It’s only three months. I’m not pregnant yet, but hugging my stomach will make me uncomfortable.”

Then, Huo Jiuxiao squatted down with his back facing Lin Wanli.

Lin Wanli leaned over and hugged Huo Jiuxiao’s neck tightly, like an innocent little girl who had just fallen in love.

“You once told me not to be touched just because a man moved my slippers for me. At the very least, I would only really care if I lost my life. Then let me ask you now. When you moved my slippers for me, did you already think that you would lose your life for me?”

“I never thought about it. Because I was afraid, I couldn’t make my mother stay, and I didn’t have the confidence to make you stay. But if you want to draw a line between us because of another man, then that man must be someone who can lose his life for you.”

For some reason, Lin Wanli did not feel disappointed after hearing this answer. Instead, she felt especially heartened.

Because at that time, she was already his only concern.

“Then when did you start liking me?”

“It’s hard to say.”

The love that never asked for anything in return, the unwavering protection, when the world trampled on him with the greatest malice, Lin Wanli’s side allowed him to catch his breath, breathe freely, and sleep peacefully. So he didn’t know when he had fallen for her.

“So, today’s theme is to reminisce?”

“Maybe. When you’re not by my side, I always think a lot. I can’t help but compare who loves more.”

“You’re making such a comparison because I haven’t done enough.” Huo Jiuxiao carried Lin Wanli on his back the entire way and didn’t drive.

Lin Wanli shook her head and replied.

“No, I can’t think that I’ve given more than you just because you didn’t respond to my feelings in the past. On the contrary, in a place where I couldn’t see, you used your way to protect and cherish me too much, making me feel that my love was very small. Even now, although you’re overseas, I know that you have to make sure of my schedule, my mood, and my work every day. Whenever I’m unhappy, you’ll always put it in your heart at the first moment. Just like in the restaurant just now, you know about the rumors that are not good for me. I don’t need to worry about them at all. You’ll solve them very well. I’m loved.”

“I wasn’t by your side when you were pregnant with Youran. Now, I’m letting you get pregnant alone…”

“I didn’t have the baby for you. I gave birth to it willingly. This is also the baby that I cherish. Don’t take everything on yourself. Besides, I’m being taken care of very well. I don’t lack anything. Your love is my best armor. So, let go of all the guilt and burdens and let our love be equal, okay? If you use so much force, my heart will ache too.”

“It’s not guilt or burden. I’m very willing to do this for you. Ah Li, you deserve the best love.”

“Put me down.”

Huo Jiuxiao stopped and put Lin Wanli down. Then, he wrapped her up with his coat.

Lin Wanli tiptoed and planted a kiss on Huo Jiuxiao’s lips. Her eyes were filled with endless longing and affection.

“Huo Jiuxiao, I love you more and more. What should I do?”

Huo Jiuxiao hugged her waist and deepened the kiss. “What a coincidence. Me too.”
