After Li Cong left with his team, Rong Dai turned around and put her hands on Huo Shao Ting's shoulders. Tip-toeing, she said, "Thank you, Shao Ting."
Thank you for loving me so warmly, thank you for loving me so hard.
Huo Shao Ting smiled faintly, hugging her slender waist so that she wouldn't have to tiptoe and get tired.
"Do you like it?"
Rong Dai's eyes were twinkling with tiny stars. She nodded vigorously, "I like it very much, very much. This is our home."
"Yes, a home that belongs to only you and me."
Huo Shao Ting's smile was charming. He leaned down and kissed her forehead gently. His heart was also very soft.
He looked forward more and more to the married life after moving into this villa with his wife.
"But everything here is what I like. What about you?"
This was what made Rong Dai feel guilty and heartache.
The whole decoration and design of the home was based on her taste.
He knew his identity. Every detail of the design was done carefully. But there was nothing that belonged to Huo Shao Ting.
"You are mine. So what you like, I like too."
Huo Shao Ting held her in his arms, every word was heart-melting.
"I only need you. Anywhere with you, I like."
He murmured softly, unable to resist kissing her lips.
Rong Dai's eyes were as bright as the stars. Hearing his words, her earlobes blushed again, and her heart trembled lightly.
When his soft lips touched hers, the throbbing in her heart could no longer be suppressed. She also responded to him softly.
After the kiss, Rong Dai's cheeks were flushed.
If it weren't for the lack of heating and made bed in the room, she had no doubt that Huo Shao Ting would have "taken action" immediately.
"Let's go pick up grandma."
Rong Dai hugged his arm. There was a faint smile on her charming face.
Huo Shao Ting tidied her hair, then the couple left the villa and drove to the airport.
When they arrived, the old lady's flight had just landed.
"Grandma!"
Seeing the old lady with a ruddy complexion and smiling face coming out with several old lady friends, Rong Dai smiled and waved at her. Her voice was sweet as she called out.
Huo Old Madam immediately saw the extremely affectionate couple. She was overjoyed. She bid farewell to her friends on the spot and walked over to them.
"The weather in Shenjing is cold. Does grandma want to put on a coat?"
Rong Dai was holding a large down jacket. She had put it in the car when they went out.
"It is a bit cold. Rong Rong is really a thoughtful little cotton-padded jacket!"
The old lady was in a very good mood. She smiled kindly and pinched Rong Dai's fair nose. After putting on the down jacket, the grandmother and grandson set off for the Huo family home.
Soon after the grandmother and grandson returned to the Huo family home, Huo Shao Jie and Huo Mei Shu also rushed home.
"Shao Jie, Mei Shu, when did you come back?"
Seeing them return, Rong Dai was a little surprised.
But counting the days, tomorrow was New Year's Eve.
It was the rule of the Huo family that no matter what, they must return home for the holidays.
Huo Mei Shu took off her scarf. It was evident that she was in a very good mood, indicating that things were going well with Mr. Gu.
"We originally wanted you to come pick us up, but the weather in Shenjing was too cold. So we just took a taxi back."
"Sister-in-law, can you pour me a glass of hot water? I'm freezing!"
While Huo Mei Shu was rubbing her hands, she said.
Rong Dai smiled and went into the kitchen to pour them warm boiled water. By now, the old lady had also changed her clothes and came downstairs.
"Grandma!"
After gulping down the water, Huo Mei Shu saw the old lady coming downstairs. She immediately fluttered over like a butterfly.
Huo Shao Jie simply called out and then collapsed on the sofa.
Seeing the family so harmonious, Rong Dai felt a burst of warmth in her heart. She saw Huo Shao Ting hang up the phone and come downstairs.
With a faint smile on her face, she went up to him and asked him a little mischievously, "Mr. Huo, can you be my sous chef today?"
She really liked such an atmosphere in the Huo family, with the old lady, mother-in-law, uncle and aunt all being very nice to her.
These were not things that could be reciprocated with money. She could only do things within her ability that could also make them happy.
Even if it was just a little bit.
Huo Shao Ting understood her thoughts. He stroked her cheek, "No need for that. We have Auntie Wang in the house. You'll be working soon. These hands cannot be injured."
Her hands were precious. Even if she didn't have to embroider, he didn't want her to work so hard.
Rong Dai knew he was worrying for her.
But after New Year, she would have to prepare for the embroidery work. She was very clear how precious her hands were.
So there wouldn't be many opportunities to cook anymore.
"It's just New Year. I won't cook anymore after I start working, okay?"
Her tone was slightly coquettish. She also wanted to give back some warmth to the Huo family within her capabilities.
Even if it was just a little.
"Big brother! Just say yes to sister-in-law! It's rare that grandma is back after so long. Let grandma taste sister-in-law's cooking too. I don't have that skill, otherwise I would definitely cook too!"
Huo Mei Shu had overheard the couple's conversation. As soon as she heard that her sister-in-law wanted to cook, she immediately became spirited!
Huo Shao Ting glanced at her indifferently, "I see you just want to eat and don't care about getting fat."
Huo Mei Shu immediately stuck out her tongue playfully and hugged the old lady's arm, leaning against her shoulder with a smile, "As long as it's made by sister-in-law, I don't care how much I eat!"
"Your mouth is getting more and more slick. Did you practice that with Gu Chengyan?"
Huo Shao Jie, who was about to fall asleep, also chimed in, immediately attracting an eye roll from Huo Mei Shu.
Rong Dai smiled lightly and pulled Huo Shao Ting into the kitchen.
In fact, she was a little afraid to face the old lady because of Zuo Ran's affair. It really couldn't be described simply as "out of line".
Reputation and family values were what big families valued most.
If reputation was damaged and family values not strict, even the most prosperous families would decline.
"Don't worry, I've talked to grandma about it already."
How could Huo Shao Ting not see her concerns?
Seeing her a little absent-minded, he whispered into her ear softly.
Zuo Ran and Yue Mu Ya's affairs were indeed disgraceful, but he didn't care.
What mattered to him was his future with her. Whatever she had experienced before was already in the past.
He had never been one to dwell on the past and live in the past.
Otherwise, the Huo family business would not have thrived under him either.
He only cared about the feelings between Rong Dai and him, about their life ahead.
Although he had originally wanted her to tell the old lady herself, he knew the old lady's temper very well.
So he took preemptive measures. Since he had married Rong Dai, he would be responsible to the end.
He didn't even have time to feel heartache for her, how could he bear to see her sad?
