Chapter 502: 502, I, Huo Jingshen, won’t become a son-in-law who moves into his wife’s family home.
“Just alright?” Huo Jingshen raised his handsome eyebrows, looking slightly displeased.
He had endured for so long, making her study diligently every day in school with that giant baby, Mo Weiyi, and now his answer was…
Just alright?
Su Wanwan explained, “The domestic textbooks are different from those abroad. In the first two years, I practically didn’t learn anything, so there’s not much I can help with the lack of foundation.”
Although she had worked really hard.
“What if you perform badly in the exam.” Huo Jingshen narrowed his eyes, his words carried a warning, “Husband will impose a punishment.”
Su Wanwan’s face turned dark, “What if I do well? Is there a reward?”
“What kind of reward do you want?”
“If I tell you, you’ll give it to me?” Su Wanwan’s eyes lit up, she immediately started listing, “I want red packets, sports cars, mansions, yachts…”
Huo Jingshen: “…”
Seeing his annoyed expression, Su Wanwan shut up and grabbed her handbag from the back seat, “If you won’t give it, it’s your loss, cheapskate!”
She always knew he was stingy, like a modern-day Huang Shiren!
“Would you like another reward from your husband?” Huo Jingshen suddenly asked.
Su Wanwan raised an eyebrow at him, her pretty eyes clear as day, “What kind of other reward?”
Huo Jingshen leaned in, “Your husband will give you plenty of…”
He muttered two earth-shaking words.
A heatwave surged straight to her face.
Su Wanwan: “…”
Furious yet embarrassed, she was speechless.
Dammit.
This damned, foul man.
It wasn’t even holiday yet but he had already revealed his true colors. What would he be like during the real holiday…
She could already envision her miserable vacation!
After unbuckling her seatbelt, Su Wanwan finally found her voice, “I’m leaving first.”
“Wait a minute.” Huo Jingshen had another request, “Aren’t you going to reward me before leaving?”
Su Wanwan was flustered, “Wasn’t what just happened enough?”
“That was your husband rewarding you. Your husband prefers it when you initiate, understand?”
Su Wanwan: “…”
She didn’t understand at all!

In the driver’s seat, Huo Jingshen just sat there, watching the young girl walk into the school gate before slowly driving off.
The car returned to its silent state.
The man’s handsome profile also gradually returned to serenity, as if devoid of any emotions.
Half an hour later, the black Mu Shang slowly entered Nangong Hospital.

Two bodyguards guarded the door of the VIP room.
Upon seeing Huo Jingshen approaching, both bodyguards immediately bowed and respectfully greeted, “Mr. Huo.”
The door opened, and the woman on the hospital bed, who was reading, looked up.
Seeing the man’s handsome face, Dong Manjiao’s originally aloof and impatient expression immediately melted into a smile.
“Jason, how come you’re here? Did you know I was hospitalized?”
At her indication, the two bodyguards swiftly closed the door.
Dong Manjiao emerged from under the blankets and got off the bed.
The room was heated, so she was only wearing a thin hospital gown, but it couldn’t cover her mature and attractive figure.
She strode melodiously up to Huo Jingshen, tiptoed, and lifted her chin.
Just as she was about to touch him, Huo Jingshen suddenly took a step back.
A fake smile froze on her face. Dong Manjiao stood there and slowly wrapped her arms around herself, her deep blue pupils filled with scrutiny and discontent, “Jason, what’s wrong?”
“I’m already married.”
“But I just wanted to greet you.”
“This is China,” Huo Jingshen tactfully implied, “Cheek kisses are not appropriate here.”
“…”
Dong Manjiao’s fingers tightened slightly.
She watched as the man gracefully sat down on the sofa in front of her.
They hadn’t seen each other for several months now, and she wasn’t sure if it was her imagination, but she felt that Huo Jingshen had changed somewhat.
But what had changed?
He was still impeccably dressed in his mature, professional attire. His expression was indifferent, revealing no emotions; his reserved, profound, and charming demeanor was still intact when silent.
Dong Manjiao had never been particularly attracted to Eastern men, thinking they were too weak and lacking in masculinity.
However, Huo Jingshen was an exception.
Firstly, his height of 1.9 meters was no different from that of Western men.
Secondly, his body proportions were excellent, thanks to his regular workouts. Not to mention his firm physique, his defined muscles rivalled those of European male models depicted on television or in magazines.
Most importantly, besides his eye-catching appearance, he possesses top-notch rationality.
How could she easily give up on such an exceptional man?
Dong Manjiao slowly hooked her red lips, “Jason, why didn’t you tell me about your marriage?”
“Why should I tell you?”
“Jason, as you know, I love you very much, and my father has always hoped that you could be our family’s son-in-law…”
“As I’ve said many times before,” Huo Jingshen looked at her, his eyebrows cold, and his demeanor unaffected, “I, Huo Jingshen, will never become a son-in-law.”
“Jason, why do you consider becoming our family’s son-in-law as being a burden?” Dong Manjiao spread her hands, disagreeing with his viewpoint, “You’re so outstanding. Once you enter our family, with your abilities, the entire Eastern Alliance will be yours. No one will think that you achieved this position because of me.”
