Billionaire's Adorable Sweet Wife

Chapter 828: Everything Under Control

Back at the villa.Aunt Li was heartbroken over the meat porridge; they were brewed from real gold and money.

Yan Kuan was more worried about Su Ruanruan’s reputation.

Su Ruanruan smiled: "I’m not like that Mrs. Xishan, who needs her reputation to deceive people into serving her."

She sat drinking tea, not letting these setbacks bother her.

Yan Kuan knew she had an idea and was eager to know.

Su Ruanruan’s beautiful eyes swept over lightly, and she spoke gently: "I was humiliated today, do you think Mrs. Xishan would immediately spread the news to block my foothold in Sheep City? What I want is her vanity so that others know I need alliances!"

Yan Kuan angrily said: "That ugly woman has too many thoughts!"

Then he flattered, saying Miss Su was clever.

Su Ruanruan replied leisurely: "If you dislike her, just don’t make her appearance an issue."

Yan Kuan disagreed, expressing his thoughts: "That Second Young Master is quite handsome, a dragon among men, I don’t believe he’d be blind enough to choose this ugly wife; it must be this woman used some trick to force him into marriage."

Though spoken casually, Su Ruanruan took it to heart.

She pondered carefully: That’s quite reasonable!

She praised Yan Kuan, saying he had made progress, then whispered a few instructions to him.

Yan Kuan, praised and assigned a task, happily rubbed his hands: "Miss Su is indeed formidable, finding the key point right away, I will definitely uncover this vile woman’s background thoroughly."

He still called her an ugly woman at every turn, and Su Ruanruan thought that woman wasn’t a good person, so she didn’t stop him.

...

Just as Su Ruanruan expected.

The incident of her rejection was spread by someone with ulterior motives.

In Sheep City, the news was buzzed about.

Naturally, it reached the Huo Family too.

In the evening.

The Huo Family finished their meal and sat gossiping.

Recently, Yin Mingzhu was in a good mood, partly because Mrs. Yin was sent back to B City to serve her sentence, partly because Su Ruanruan had lost face.

She leaned against Master Huo, flattering the Huo Family’s Second Young Madam.

She said: "You all don’t know, Su Ruanruan was quite capable and cunning in B City, which made her arrogant, not realizing once in Sheep City those tricks won’t work anymore. Our Second Young Madam easily made her lose face."

The Huo Family’s Second Young Madam smiled: "I usually treat those people well, so it’s normal they respect me."

Yin Mingzhu thought about that pig food and was repulsed.

Yet she also admired this Second Young Madam, who captured people’s hearts with pig food.

She hummed lightly: "Su Ruanruan has been smug for too long; it’s time to show her the ropes!"

The family chatted and laughed.

The Huo Family’s Grand Young Madam remained silent.

Although she wasn’t as prominent as the Second Young Madam, she was adept at preserving her position.

Once back in the bedroom, her husband Huo Shaojun wanted to be intimate, but she was preoccupied, so she responded perfunctorily.

Huo Shaojun felt a bit disappointed.

He turned over and looked at the ceiling, saying: "Even if we can’t have a child, does that mean we won’t be real husband and wife?"

The Grand Young Madam knew he misunderstood.

She leaned over him and whispered: "Shaojun, after all these years of being infertile I’ve almost resigned myself! But ever since Miss Su came, I’ve had hope again."

She said, "Mrs. Zhou got pregnant after Miss Su’s involvement."

Huo Shaojun watched his wife.

After a moment, he murmured: "But you heard it just now, Miss Su is no match for the Second Branch!"

He caressed his wife’s belly, considering: "I’m afraid even if we have a child, it would be harmed by Chen Xishan! Xiruo, I’d rather not have a child than lose you."

The Grand Young Madam was touched upon hearing this.

But she resented her husband’s weakness, and as she sat up, she said: "Should we not have a child just because we’re afraid? Shaojun, are you willing to let someone like Chen Xishan, an ordinary woman, hold our house firmly?"
