Billionaire's Adorable Sweet Wife-Chapter 997: A Well-Directed Play
Su Ruanruan smiled lightly, "Thank you, Young Master Huo."
Huo Shaojun, being a congenial person, replied, "You’re too kind, Miss Su." With that, he led Su Ruanruan to her seat.
The Huo Family’s hall was full of festive delight.
The new couple, having been tested by time and tribulations, still gazed at each other with tender, lingering affection.
Huo Shaoting and Yan Jing drank the nuptial wine.
The crowd cheered.
The newlyweds, both of whom were easily embarrassed, blushed a deep red... yet even so, they appeared sweet and endearing.
Su Ruanruan was happy for them too.
She sipped a small glass of light wine.
Just as the guests were enjoying themselves, someone interjected, "With the Huo second young master newly wed, and seeing how affectionate he and the second young madam are... surely in less than two years, the old master will be blessed with another pair of grandchildren!"
These joyful words made the newlyweds blush even more.
Old Master Huo’s face was glowing, as if he were drunk.
He looked at Huo Shaoting and his wife and said, "Shaoting, we’re counting on you to extend the Huo family line! With two boys, Xige and Linge, it doesn’t matter if it’s a boy or a girl... as long as it’s a child."
Someone then urged the second young master to put in more effort.
Huo Shaoting raised his hands in a plea for leniency... then turned his gaze towards his new bride.
Their eyes were filled with affection, a sweetness beyond words.
...
At this moment, the grand young madam stood.
She offered wine to the old master.
The grand young madam was held in high regard by He Jitang, so Old Master Huo also looked up to her.
The grand young madam said delicately, "I seem to be of thin fortune and shallow destiny. Despite being married to Shaojun for many years, I’ve yet to conceive any children, even with Miss Su’s treatments... but for so long, there’s been no movement in my belly!"
Someone heckled, "Let Young Master Huo try harder."
Another mentioned, "I happen to know a renowned doctor named Han Ping. He has a remarkable skill in gynecology. Out of ten women treated by him, nine and a half end up pregnant."
The grand young madam was pleasantly surprised.
She said to her husband, "Shaojun, such an opportunity is rare! Let’s arrange to meet him."
Huo Shaojun felt a bit awkward.
He glanced at Su Ruanruan and said in a low voice, "Miss Su is still here, aren’t you undermining her by saying that?"
The grand young madam had a different opinion.
She argued, "Miss Su is a doctor! Doctors are compassionate and dedicated to saving lives. I believe she won’t mind if I switch doctors midway."
She looked at Su Ruanruan.
Su Ruanruan, having watched the scenario for a while, smiled.
She suspected what the grand young madam was planning to do to her, so she remained calm, "I naturally wouldn’t mind! Grand young madam, feel free to try."
Liu Xiruo gazed at Su Ruanruan’s eyes and smiled slightly.
She wanted to toast Su Ruanruan.
But Su Ruanruan declined.
She said softly, "I’m not good at drinking, grand young madam, please feel free."
By refusing, she put the grand young madam in an awkward position, her expression freezing.
Su Ruanruan did it on purpose.
Such a person isn’t worthy of drinking with her, let alone considering Su Ruanruan’s current status in Guangzhou is far above that of the grand young madam.
Huo Shaojun managed to smooth things over for his wife.
He tenderly placed a bite of food on her plate and said gently, "Miss Su is probably preparing for pregnancy, so she can’t drink!"
The grand young madam smiled tenderly at her husband.
It was very sweet.
Su Ruanruan sipped her tea lightly, her beautiful eyes resting playfully on the couple.
Quite amusing!
After years of marriage, Huo Shaojun probably assumed his wife deeply loved him!
Little did he know, all that nightly effort... was merely futile!
Su Ruanruan secretly pondered: What does Liu Xiruo want? Could it just be the power in Chen Xishan’s hands?
No... it couldn’t be that simple!
Su Ruanruan’s gaze swept lightly——
She suddenly spotted someone.
It was the nursemaid previously by Linge’s side. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Su Ruanruan was slightly shocked: Wasn’t that woman sent away from the Huo Mansion for making a mistake last time? How come she’s here again?
She wanted to look closer, but the woman disappeared into the back alley...
Su Ruanruan made a note of it.
