Chapter 544: 546 Red Lip Print (5)_1
"..."
What does the gentleman mean by this?
Mrs. Rong was stunned for a moment before the gentleman’s cold voice came through the handset again, "Pay attention to nutrition for all three meals from now on, and focus on iron-rich and blood-boosting foods in particular. Buy more fruit for the house, like cherries, peaches, and the like."
"..."
It took Mrs. Rong a long while to realize what the gentleman meant!
Is this preparation for pregnancy?
And not letting the lady know, could it be that the gentleman wants a child, but the lady doesn’t?
If the gentleman wishes, would there be a shortage of women to bear his child for him? Honestly, to this day, she still didn’t understand how the gentleman chose Miss Che Huan...
Huo Jinnan stubbed out his cigarette, stood up, walked to the window, pulled back the heavy curtains, and glanced outside, "Did you hear me?"
Mrs. Rong snapped back to attention and hastily replied, "Yes, sir, I heard you."
Huo Jinnan hung up the call and made another call to Huo Bei without mentioning a word about Che Huan’s pleading.

Qin Family
Upon hearing the content of Che Huan’s phone conversation, the old Mrs. Qin’s face immediately turned as dark as if it could rain, and she picked up her phone to call Qin Moting, "Moting, did you give Che Huan 10% of the shares?"
"Mom, it’s Qin Huan, not Che Huan." Qin Moting looked at Wen Ru. The day after their marriage, they had moved back to the hospital, though now they shared one room instead of two.
The old Mrs. Qin seethed with frustration, "Fine, Qin Huan then. You got married without a whisper or asking for your father’s and my opinion, just giving us a symbolic notification. Fine, now that it’s done, we don’t have much to say. But you neglect your own daughter while giving someone else’s daughter a 10% share as a gift; are you bewitched?"
Qin Moting spoke indifferently, "My shares, I’ll give them to whoever I want."
"..."
The old lady was so choked up that she couldn’t speak right away. After a long while, she asked in a strained voice, clearly annoyed, "Then how many shares do you plan to give to Tongtong?"
Qin Moting’s response was cool and detached, "I have no such plan."
"You, you..."
The old lady stuttered, unsure of what to curse. She had already had Mochuan find out; Che Huan was not Moting’s daughter but one born to that undistinguished Che family after moving to Li City.
After a moment of silence, Qin Moting asked quietly, "Mom, just on the basis of a paternity test, you say Fang Tong is my daughter, have you checked? Her background, her biological mother, her..."
"I don’t care about all of that, no matter what her background is, whatever kind of person her birth mother is, as long as she’s my biological granddaughter, that’s enough."
"Then one day I’ll have Ji Yan bring her over for another paternity test."
"You... what do you mean, you doubt that I’d force a daughter on you? You ungrateful brat—"
The old lady’s hand trembled, and she accidentally hung up the phone, sitting there fuming!
The old Mr. Qin was lying there reading the newspaper. When he heard the phone call end, he took off his presbyopic glasses and glanced over, "At your age, why concern yourself with so many things? Be secretly pleased that Moting is willing to marry; why go looking for trouble?"
Pushing the phone away irritably, the old lady glared at the old Mr. Qin, "You just know how to play the good guy."
"The matter with Wen Ru back then..."
"Enough, don’t mention it."
The flash of guilt over the Wen Family incident flickered in the old lady’s heart, but it wasn’t the Qin Family’s fault, she reasoned—though she feared Wen Ru might not see it that way.
She feared that after so many years, Wen Ru suddenly coming back to marry Moting was for revenge!
