Billionaire's Adorable Sweet Wife-Chapter 1077: Huo Family Secrets

The Huo Family, mournful voices echo.

Old Master Huo grandly organized the funeral for the wet nurse.

All the famous personalities of Yangcheng honored the Huo Family by offering their condolences.

Su Ruanruan was pregnant, so she was somewhat reluctant to go.

But she had matters that were unavoidable.

She went personally to pay her respects and contributed to the offerings.

Lighting incense for the unfortunate woman who died under mysterious circumstances, Su Ruanruan gently scanned the surroundings.

Old Master Huo wore a forlorn expression.

Huo Shaojun and his wife knelt in gratitude to the guests, while Huo Shaoting and his wife handled affairs outside.

Su Ruanruan secretly observed, indeed the event was lavishly orchestrated.

At the time of the soul breaking ritual, Old Master Huo’s cries shook the heavens, appearing more sorrowful than when his first wife passed!

The relatives and friends of the Huo Family simply looked down on the wet nurse.

This entire production was clearly just to silence others’ mouths, a self-directed performance.

Su Ruanruan stood with Miss Yan.

They whispered to each other.

Miss Yan softly said, "They gave the man ten million to cover it up. Old Master is crying for the money he spent."

Su Ruanruan smiled faintly.

She said, "I think Old Master truly has some reluctance towards that wet nurse."

Miss Yan lowered her voice even further, "The wet nurse knew how to serve people."

Su Ruanruan discreetly covered her nose.

She directed her gaze towards the grand young madam.

Liu Xiruo was expressionless, as if the joy and sorrow here were unrelated to her, merely burning paper money.

She did not even look at her husband.

No sense of the absurdity touched her.

Yet Su Ruanruan knew: the more indifferent one acts, the more turmoil lies within.

Su Ruanruan temporarily suppressed it.

She walked around the Huo Family with Qin Chao, inadvertently arriving at the place where the wet nurse had come to harm.

That patch of ground, despite being dealt with, remained clearly conspicuous compared to other areas.

Qin Chao quietly said, "Miss Su, this place is ominous, let’s leave!"

Su Ruanruan replied, "She was also a pitiful person! Flirting to supplement household income while alive, only to be heartlessly sold to others by her husband after death."

Qin Chao spat forcefully.

He cursed Old Master Huo fervently, "That old dog is still pretending! He’s not a decent person at all."

Su Ruanruan smiled faintly.

Just as they were about to leave, a gentle voice rang from behind, "Miss Su."

Su Ruanruan turned her head.

Indeed, it was the person she was waiting for: the grand young madam of the Huo Family.

The grand young madam was originally beautiful, even more alluring in her mourning attire.

She smiled slightly, "Miss Su has been lingering in the Huo Mansion for quite a while, it seems you’ve been waiting for me?"

Su Ruanruan didn’t beat around the bush.

She said softly, "I have some matters to discuss with the grand young madam, I wonder if you have time?"

"For Miss Su, I always have time."

The grand young madam invited her to converse in the backyard.

Not assured, Qin Chao followed along.

Upon reaching the backyard living area, the grand young madam instructed the maid to brew tea.

The tea was excellent Snow Mountain Green.

Su Ruanruan smiled gently, "It’s indeed good tea."

Just as she was about to speak, the grand young madam said, "I have known Miss Su for a long time, Miss Su is clever. If I were to share secrets with you, who knows if it’ll become a dagger against me."

Su Ruanruan lowered her eyes and laughed softly.

She said, "Is the grand young madam afraid I’m recording?"

The grand young madam gazed at her and then slowly sipped her tea before speaking, "With Miss Su asking like that, I’m reassured."

Qin Chao couldn’t help but say, "Our Miss Su would never stoop to doing such things."

Embarrassment flushed Su Ruanruan’s face.

She gave Qin Chao a light glance, then turned to the grand young madam and said, "I know you’re aggrieved, but that wet nurse was pitiful in her death. Years have passed... why not let go of everything, and cut your losses while you can?"

Su Ruanruan added, "Huo Shaojun truly loves you!"

These words seemed to touch the grand young madam’s sore spot.

She laughed, but it was a cold laughter.

She repeated Su Ruanruan’s words, "Love me? Miss Su must be joking!"

She tilted her head back, and tears the size of beans flowed down, "If he loved me, he wouldn’t have acted like nothing happened after that old dog of a father violated me. If he loved me, he wouldn’t insist on keeping me in this hellish place, living daily with that repulsive old man’s face."

The grand young madam clenched her teeth, "He’s no man at all!"

Although the grand young madam committed many wrongs, her experience was pitiable.

In this respect, Su Ruanruan felt sympathetic.

She asked softly, "Why did you target the wet nurse?"

The grand young madam’s tear-streaked face froze.

She laughed, and said, "I hadn’t thought Miss Su would be so direct! But let me tell Miss Su, that vile woman disrespected me! In the bedroom, that dog of a bastard told the wet nurse about my ordeal, and unbelievably in broad daylight, she humiliated me... What does she think she is, to sneer at me!"

The grand young madam’s teeth clenched.

She said coldly, "I naturally couldn’t let her live."

Su Ruanruan sighed.

The grand young madam had long been suppressing herself.

At this moment, she couldn’t hold back, "Back then I was pregnant with a bastard! I was afraid of others finding out and secretly aborted the child. All these years, pretending to be lovingly married to Huo Shaojun, living in fear, just waiting for the day that old man dies! Yet, I never expected Chen Xishan to enter the household. Being ugly has its upside, it’s safe! Old Master didn’t harass her but valued her highly. And I... was violated on my wedding night. How innocent am I?"
