429 Humiliating
“What happened yesterday? Tell me honestly, or I’ll teach you a lesson!”
Su Qing wasn’t too ruthless, and her strength was measured. However, no one had ever dared to be so impudent to Huo Qi, and even he was a little shocked.
However, after a moment of surprise, Huo Qi’s eyes were filled with doting love and helplessness. The smile on his lips widened, and he looked at Su Qing gently, as though no matter what Su Qing wanted in the next moment, he could support and dote on her endlessly. In fact, he would even stand at the side and wave the flag to support her!
“Alright, darling, I didn’t really want to hide it from you! It’s just that the situation yesterday was really too urgent, and I didn’t have time to do so. I was also afraid that you would be worried about me, so I didn’t inform you.” As Huo Qi spoke, he raised his hand and held Su Qing’s hand, which was still pinching the corner of his mouth. He smiled helplessly and said, “I still have the chauffeur in front of me. Can you give me face first? When we get home, I’ll let you ‘take care’ of me. Is that alright?”
The chauffeur was speechless.
He adjusted his sitting posture slightly and calmly eased his awkward mood. He complained in his heart, Young Master, you actually don’t have to specially mention me! I’m fine. I’ll just pretend that I don’t know or hear anything! Young Master, in my heart, you’ll always be the high and mighty eldest son of the Huo family, not a henpecked husband!
After complaining, the driver suddenly realized something. Did he just hear his young master flaunt his love and deliberately tease the future young madam? What a sin! How could his young master be such a person? Who could tell him if the young master in the backseat had been swapped? Where had his wise, divine, and decisive master gone?
Su Qing and Huo Qi naturally couldn’t hear the chauffeur’s complaints. Su Qing glanced indifferently at the driver, who was sitting upright in the driver’s seat. After some thought, she slowly let go. At the same time, she retracted her hand from the man’s palm and said coldly, “Alright, let’s talk later.”
Su Qing also felt that it would be awkward if she quarreled with Huo Qi in the car.
Huo Qi was very happy to see his darling being so understanding and gentle. The smile on his lips never faded.
At the Huo residence.
Actually, Su Qing had only been to the Huo residence a few times, but she had only slept in Huo Qi’s master bedroom, so she still didn’t know much about the Huo residence’s layout.
When Huo Qi led Su Qing into the hall on the first floor, Huo Ming had already welcomed her with a smile.
He smiled at Su Qing and said respectfully, “Good afternoon, Miss Su. Have you had lunch? Young Master had just instructed the kitchen to do something, but I didn’t expect him to bring you back so quickly. The chef probably isn’t ready yet!”
When Su Qing heard this, she nodded calmly at the old butler and said softly, “There’s no need to trouble yourself, Sir. We’ve already eaten.”
When Huo Qi heard how Su Qing addressed Huo Ming, he smiled and pulled Su Qing’s hand, introducing her, “This is Uncle Huo Ming. He’s Father’s trusted assistant and Huo Feng’s father. You can just call him Uncle Ming.”
When Su Qing heard Huo Qi’s introduction, she subconsciously greeted politely, “Uncle Ming.”
Huo Ming was a sly old fox for a thousand years, so how could he not understand his young master’s thoughts? In the end, he held back the smile on his face, but he couldn’t hide the joy in his eyes. He quickly replied, “Young Master, you’re really flattering me! Miss Su, you don’t have to be so polite. Just call me by my name!”
Su Qing glanced at the delighted butler, Huo Ming, and then at Huo Qi. She felt that something was amiss, but if she really traced it back to the source, she wouldn’t be able to say what it was for the time being.
As Huo Ming spoke, he exchanged glances with his naughty young master and bowed with a smile. “Miss Su, take a seat with Young Master. I’ll go upstairs and inform Master and prepare some tea and snacks for you! What kind of tea does Miss Su usually like to drink?”
Huo Ming asked kindly, his eyes filled with adoration for Su Qing. This future Young Madam was really too cute and beautiful. Huo Ming also felt that there shouldn’t be anyone who wouldn’t like such a girl.
