The grand young madam of Young Master Huo was startled.
She worried her husband had overheard the earlier conversation, testing him with her words.
Fortunately, Huo Shaojun hadn’t heard.
Seeing that his wife was pregnant, he treated her more tenderly than usual: "Is the baby bothering you?"
Liu Xiruo glanced at her husband.
Caressing her belly, she said, "It’s just the size of a little bean now!"
Huo Shaojun looked at his wife’s slender waist, his gaze slightly intense.
He asked her quietly, "Is it true that we can’t be intimate for the first three months?"
Liu Xiruo lightly humd in agreent.
She told her husband, "For the next few months, you’ll have to bear with it!"
With the promise of a child, Huo Shaojun could set aside matters of the body.
He teased his wife, "Don’t you want it too?"
The grand young madam of Young Master Huo leaned on her husband’s shoulder, savoring the tranquil warmth.
After a long while, she softly said, "I want it too!"
She then asked her husband, "What did you say to the old man just now?"
At this, Huo Shaojun laughed, congratulating his wife, saying, "Since you’re pregnant, the old man is happy and wants to celebrate for you."
The grand young madam smiled faintly.
She asked her husband, "The family just celebrated for Shaoting and his wife, now they want to celebrate for ...won’t it be awkward?"
Huo Shaojun took a sip of tea.
He spoke straightforwardly, "Precisely because we’ve celebrated for Shaoting and his wife, the old man doesn’t want to play favorites, he said you haven’t been celebrated grandly since you joined the family, and it’s the perfect ti to enhance your standing!"
Huo Shaojun was truly happy.
He didn’t notice his wife’s poor expression.
He only assud she, like him, was happy about the arrival of the child.
*
The grand young madam’s celebration was held at a hotel.
All of Guangzhou ca to congratulate the grand young madam.
Huo Shaojun, together with his wife, returned the salutations from the guests.
For a mont, it was splendid beyond asure!
Su Ruanruan ca as well!
She congratulated the grand young madam of Young Master Huo.
Just then, Huo Shaojun was called away for sothing, leaving Su Ruanruan and the grand young madam with a chance to be alone.
Since they were old acquaintances, they spoke directly.
The grand young madam smiled, "I don’t wish to be at odds with Miss Su either! But since Miss Su ca to Guangzhou to make a fortune, there’s bound to be so rivalry between us! Who can bla it... it’s like, ’Since jade exists, why have pearls!’"
Su Ruanruan feigned ignorance.
She said straightforwardly, "A woman being pregnant is a cheerful event, I am only happy for the grand young madam."
As she spoke, she called over Qin Chao.
Qin Chao presented a long box.
Su Ruanruan opened it to reveal a jade Guanyin statue, extrely valuable.
Su Ruanruan smiled slightly, "I present this Guanyin to the grand young madam, wishing many children and blessings for her and Brother Huo!"
The grand young madam’s expression shifted slightly.
Her lips moved, but in the end, she accepted it with a faint smile.
Su Ruanruan kept watching her, convinced she would not keep this child!
She couldn’t help but let out a soft sigh!

Throughout the banquet, Su Ruanruan remained very low-key, sitting at the sa table as Huo Shaoting and his wife.
Yan Jing felt sowhat lost.
She whispered to Su Ruanruan, "How did she manage to get pregnant just like that?"
Su Ruanruan gave a slight smile, "Sister Yan, you and Second Brother Huo are so affectionate, you’ll have children soon too."
Yan Jing was slightly comforted.
Just as Su Ruanruan was about to say sothing more, a tall figure sat beside her.
It was Zhou Huo.
Zhou Huo, in his usual lazy manner, said, "You saw it, Miss Su, the grand young madam of Young Master Huo has so skills! It’s like planting radishes, say you have it, and it’s there!"
Su Ruanruan responded calmly, "That’s the grand young madam’s talent!"
Zhou Huo gave a wicked smile, "Does Miss Su have any regrets?"
Su Ruanruan chuckled, "I’m worried it’s Mr. Zhou who might regret it! I forgot to ntion, I’ve already invited Dr. Han Ping, I hope he can consult at Tongsheng Hospital."
Zhou Huo sneered, "Impossible!"
Han Ping had a falling out with Gu Dahong and was also a family friend of the grand young madam of Young Master Huo’s family.
Why would he want to cooperate with Su Ruanruan?
A naive little girl, dreaming too beautifully!
