Billionaire's Adorable Sweet Wife

Chapter 872: A Calculated Guess—The Time Is Right!

Bao Jingyan picked up Su Ruanruan’s glass of milk and drank it in one gulp.He teased Miss Yan, "Little sister-in-law, beautiful women who care too much for men don’t usually end well!"

Su Ruanruan found it both amusing and exasperating.

She poured another glass for Bao Jingyan and said, "Drink this one, at least go and send the person away! Standing so stiffly at the door doesn’t look good."

Bao Jingyan put down the cup and leaned over to kiss her.

He straightened up and said to Yan Jing, "My wife may be young, but she’s particularly good at keeping people in line!"

Yan Jing, seeing their affections, was quite envious.

She said, "That’s because President Bao loves his wife dearly, which is why he listens to her!"

Bao Jingyan stuffed his hands in his pockets and winked at Su Ruanruan, "I like hearing that!"

He then went out to dismiss that Huo Shaoting.

...

At the door, Huo Shaoting waited foolishly.

The secretary came down to hold an umbrella for him, gently advising, "Miss Yan and you have just reunited, the shock in her heart must be no less than yours! Why not give her some time and then decide what to do next."

But Huo Shaoting was not willing.

He said, "You don’t know her temper. If she says she won’t see me, she really won’t. I’m going to wait until she comes out."

Just as he finished speaking, the door creaked open.

The secretary happily said, "It seems you’ve moved Miss Yan’s heart, Second Young Master."

Huo Shaoting was invigorated too, immediately adjusting himself to face his beloved in the best light.

But unexpectedly, Bao Jingyan came out instead.

Bao Jingyan feigned surprise upon seeing Huo Shaoting.

He said, "Why is Second Brother Huo here so early? My apologies, my apologies."

He immediately ushered Huo Shaoting inside.

As soon as Huo Shaoting was inside, hope rose in his heart, and he couldn’t wait to ask, "Is Yan Jing here?"

Bao Jingyan didn’t hide it from him.

He said, "She is indeed here. Last night, I was talking about her with my wife, and my wife said that a talented woman like Miss Yan is wasted singing in a bar. She knew Miss Yan studied finance, so she asked me to hire her as a secretary!"

Bao Jingyan drank a sip of tea and continued, "They’re talking right now! Women always have endless topics to chat about!"

Huo Shaoting was utterly confused.

Bao Jingyan observed his expression, finding it insufficient.

He added another strong dose, "Just now, Ruanruan told me that Miss Yan is so beautiful, she’s going to matchmake for her!"

Huo Shaoting was so anxious that his face turned red.

He was also very cultured, even slamming the table lacked confidence, "How can this be!"

Bao Jingyan pretended not to understand.

He countered, "Miss Yan is a single woman, why can’t she date and get married?"

He eyed this Second Young Master Huo, his gaze electric-like, "Surely it wasn’t because I joked about calling her little sister-in-law, and that got Second Brother Huo thinking I wanted to monopolize Miss Yan, was it?"

Huo Shaoting was stunned.

Bao Jingyan pressed the advantage, "A woman as wonderful as Miss Yan, it would be such a waste to make her a mistress."

Huo Shaoting couldn’t help but feel disheartened.

Yes, he already had a wife, what face did he have to see Yan Jing?

Did he really want her to follow him in secret?

He wanted to give up, but his heart was here, how could he bear to let go?

So for three consecutive days, Huo Shaoting reported to Bao Mansion punctually, hoping to see Yan Jing.

...

This morning, Huo Shaoting came again, wanting to see Miss Yan.

Su Ruanruan calculated carefully.

Three days!

That’s enough!

Three days!

She had tormented this Second Young Master Huo enough!

Su Ruanruan told Aunt Li, "Please invite Second Young Master Huo in and say I have something serious to discuss with him."

Aunt Li went to get the person.

At the door, Huo Shaoting received the confirmed news and was overjoyed.

He said to the secretary, "It seems I have moved Miss Su, and she too is willing for me to meet Yan Jing."

The secretary was also happy for him.

But when the lovesick Second Young Master Huo entered the hall, Miss Yan was not there.

Only Su Ruanruan was sitting, drinking tea.

On the small tea table beside her, there was also a piece of proof from the hospital...
