Chapter 30: old man!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Outside the gates of Su Family’s villa, dozens of journalists were huddled together. Despite being under the blazing midday sun, they were raising their cameras, microphones, cell phones, and voice recorders high, unperturbed by the heat…

Their eyes were glued on the courtyard, afraid of missing out on any breaking news.

Suddenly, an excited voice called out, “Huo Jingshen is here!”

As Su Wanwan looked up, she saw a swarm of journalists, akin to a herd of frenzied sheep, dash past the servants into the yard, quickly encircling them and bombarding them with questions:

“Mr. Huo, what is your relationship with this lady?”

“Is this lady the fiancee you referred to as being in your room at your mansion last night?”

“Are you really engaged?”

“When do you plan to host the wedding?”

Fiancee?

Weren’t they here to question her about a newspaper article?

Su Wanwan was slightly baffled.

Yet, the flashlights were too blinding. Without having any time to think, she immediately lowered her head, raising her hand to shield her face.

Mid-air, her hand was seized. Then, she was drawn into a broad and secure embrace.

Whatever he did caused the noisy crowd to quiet down at once.

“I’m sorry.”

She heard his deep and resolute voice saying, “My fiancee is a little shy, so if you have any questions, let me answer them.”

The journalists hurriedly threw the first question: “Mr. Huo, is this lady your fiancee?”

“…” Huo Jingshen remained silent.

The journalists quickly threw the second question, “Mr. Huo, have you really decided to get married?”

“…” Huo Jingshen was still silent.

The journalists were relentless. They swiftly threw their third question: “Mr. Huo, you’ve just become the new CEO of Huo Yuan property, would the chairman Mr. Huo know about your upcoming wedding?”

When Su Wanwan thought he would remain silent, the man responded lightly, “You think that I’m about to marry and the elders wouldn’t know?”

Su Wanwan:”…”

Alright then!

One question and he’d answered all the rest.

The journalists exclaimed in unison, “Congratulations Mr. Huo!”

“Mr. Huo, you are so fortunate!”

“May the two of you grow old together and live a peaceful life!”

The flashes from the cameras filled the air along with the shutter clicks.

Last night, a gossipy internet user posted a disclosure on the entertainment forum, alleging to have sneakily photographed the Huo family heir and his mysterious fiancee having a secret meeting at the mansion.

Naturally, the journalists found this exciting. But knowing Huo Jingshen’s status, they knew the Huo family would never easily accept their interviews. Even if they managed to sneak some photos, the photos would never be approved for publication.

They never imagined that their prayers would be answered today when they were notified that Mr. Huo was here, discussing his wedding with his fiancee, and would make a five-minute window for interviews.

Looking at it now, the heir of Huo family is not only handsome and good-tempered, but also down-to-earth – a truly outstanding man, the journalists thought to themselves.

The five minutes passed quickly, and Huo Jingshen, still clutching his fiancee, was ready to leave.

Though the journalists willingly paved the way, the relentless ones still followed them, asking:

“Mr. Huo, could we take a photo of your fiancee’s face?”

“Mr. Huo, when have you planned the wedding?”

“Mr. Huo…”

It wasn’t until they got into the car and closed the door behind them that the world finally fell silent.

Su Wanwan sighed deeply, never imagining she would be the lead character in a gossip story one day.

How exciting!

Mu Shang quickly drove away from the villa. As they exited the main gate of the community, Su Wanwan suddenly shouted, “Stop the car! Stop the car!”

Huo Jingshen didn’t stop. Lifting his brows, he glanced at the jittery girl beside him, “What are you trying to do?”

Su Wanwan’s mouth hung open, but she couldn’t find the words to articulate her thoughts.

It was only now that she realized that she had impulsively agreed to marriage!

That too, to a man she had only met a few times!

Indeed, she had done many unconventional things before turning eighteen, but getting married on a whim…

Su Wanwan felt like she was dreaming.

Suddenly, her cellphone’s ringtone went off. Huo Jingshen glanced at the screen and answered it.

“Holy crap, you finally answered your phone.”

It was Nangong Ci.

Huo Jingshen raised an eyebrow, “Did you invite the reporters?”

“It wasn’t me.”

“Heh.”

“I swear, it wasn’t me, it was my brother. I’m a doctor, where would I know so many gossip-hungry reporters?” Nangong Ci protested, “You scared me to death. I called you over a dozen times, and you didn’t even reply on WeChat. Didn’t I teach you how to use it?”

“I didn’t have my phone on me.”

“I see.” Nangong Ci chuckled, “So, does this mean everything is settled?”

Huo Jingshen couldn’t be bothered to respond.

“Great! When you come back to the U.K., don’t forget your marriage certificate. Fu Xihan wouldn’t let you get divorced then. As for Dong Manjiao, she should give up too. You’ve killed two birds with one stone. The old one really knows his stuff, your ambitions are boundless!”

The call was abruptly hung up.

A private room on the sixth floor of a luxury residence.

Nangong Ci wasn’t annoyed that the call was hung up, instead he laughed and pointed at the two in the room, “Look at you guys, my elder brother has already found a wife. Aren’t you guys feeling the pressure? You’re not getting any younger, you know?”

Chu Xiuhuang shot him a cold glance, “I think you’re asking for a beating.”

As for Lu Chenyu, “You’re older than me.”

Nangong Ci:”…”

Inside the Mercedes, while Huo Jingshen was on the phone, Su Wanwan was sneakily scrutinizing her future husband.

His short hair was stylishly cut, indicating that he was a man who took great care of his personal image.

Below the hair, were thick eyebrows, eyes that were neither big nor small, with deep double eyelids, making him look profound. His eyelashes were exceptionally long.

A straight nose that exuded a certain air of arrogance and thin lips. His lower jaw was cleanly shaven.

His face was very pleasing to the eye. His side profile was even more so, with perfect lines. His ambience was cool but also very charming.

Anyway, Su Wanwan had to admit, Huo Jingshen was undoubtably a handsome man. She felt like she struck gold.

“Are you satisfied with your husband’s face?”

“Cough, cough, cough!” Su Wanwan choked.

Huo Jingshen freed a large hand to gently pat her back, “No rush.”

These two words, he said very gently. Su Wanwan thought to herself, not bad, quite considerate. But who knew the very next second…

“You’ll have plenty of time in future to look at me.”

”…” Resisting the urge to roll her eyes, Su Wanwan turned to look out the window, “Where are we going?”

“Back to the Huo Family’s house.”

“What?” Su Wanwan, startled, turned her face back.

So soon… she was about to meet her in-laws?

Huo Jingshen could barely contain his laughter, “Is Wanwan feeling shy?”

“Shy your bum!”

“My grandparents are quite nice,” Huo Jingshen comforted her, “They’ve always wanted me to get married sooner.”

Su Wanwan couldn’t help but ask, “How old are you now?”

“Thirty.”

“What the hell!” Su Wanwan blurted out, “That’s so old!”

He’s a thirty-year-old man!

A whole ten years older than her!

“Mmm, it is a bit old.” Huo Jingshen’s voice was adorably smug, “I’ll let you get used to it slowly.”

Su Wanwan:

Why does that sentence feel a bit off?

Something’s a bit weird…
