Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After this farce, Xia Sheng felt troubled and turned to leave.

However, Huo Ye didn’t leave. Instead, he smiled meaningfully at Song Qian and said, “Miss Song, you can’t be easily fooled like this. You should be more careful in the future. Don’t jump to conclusions from insignificant evidence.”

Song Qian’s face was pale and she looked dazed.

Father Song sighed deeply and didn’t say anything else.

After suffering a loss, Song Qian kept her tail between her legs for a few days. In the end, she didn’t dare to cause any more trouble.

However, because of Huo Ye’s arrival, Xia Sheng’s plan to stay overnight was disrupted. She had no choice but to return her plane ticket and accompany Huo Ye.

After the terrible incident, Father Song and Mother Song felt guilty towards Xia Sheng and suggested that they only bring her out for dinner.

Xia Sheng had no objections to this suggestion, but when she thought of Huo Ye, she asked, “Do you mind if I bring more people?”

Mother Song seemed to have understood and smiled. “You can bring anyone you want.”

“Thank you.” Xia Sheng thanked her and happily contacted Huo Ye.

Huo Ye arrived at the agreed meeting place on time. Although it was inconvenient for him to move, his noble temperament was extremely eye-catching. Just looking at him made people feel reverence from the bottom of their hearts.

Father Song and Mother Song looked at each other and saw the seriousness in each other’s eyes.

“Since you’re here, let’s sit together!” Father Song invited Huo Ye to take a seat. Soon, the table was filled with dishes.

However, before eating, he got the service staff to push a car over. “Sheng Sheng, Dad knows that you don’t like staying at home, so I prepared a new house for you. You don’t have to worry about being disturbed when you come back in the future.”

Xia Sheng took the document with ease, her smile sincere. “Thank you, I will come back often.”

“This is the portion of shares that belongs to you. I originally wanted to give you a grand banquet before announcing it openly.” Father Song took out this item with a deeper meaning. “But I’ve discussed it with your mother. The banquet can be held anytime, but since you’re back, it’s better to give you the shares earlier.”

“Take it. This is a token of our appreciation.” Mother Song said softly with a kind smile.

Even though Xia Sheng had made preparations before coming, she still could not react when she received this gift. “Do my brothers have any objections?”

She didn’t mention Song Qian, but if the other party was to find out, she would definitely vomit blood from anger and continue to cause trouble in the Song Family.

Father Song finally showed his authority as the head of the family. “This belongs to you in the first place. They wouldn’t dare to object.”

Xia Sheng shut her mouth and took the transfer of shares seriously. Of course, if Song Qian wanted to challenge her bottom line, she couldn’t blame her for being rude. The next time she did, she would chase her out of the house.

The atmosphere at the dining table suddenly turned serious. Huo Ye cleared his throat and said, “Uncle, Auntie, you don’t have to worry. Sheng Sheng is very outstanding. She will use her abilities to shut up those doubters.”

“Mr. Huo seems to know Sheng Sheng very well.” Father Song had lived for so many years, how could he not see through Huo Ye’s thoughts?

Previously, he had heard that Xia Sheng was already married to someone, but she was so secretive and refused to reveal the other party’s identity. Now that Huo Ye was brought over, could this be her husband?

At the thought of this, Father Song narrowed his eyes and felt a little unhappy. His daughter had been taken by another man just when they acknowledged her. He could not help but look at Xia Sheng again, meeting Xia Sheng’s gaze as she gave him an obedient smile.

Seeing this, Father Song understood everything and felt even more depressed.

“Mom and Dad, I have my own career, an outstanding team, and a reliable partner. Everything is great.”

What Xia Sheng said this time was true. Everything she had now was built on her own hard work. She had avoided all the wrong paths in the previous life and would not fall into a desperate situation because of a mistake.

The more Mother Song looked at Huo Ye, the stranger she felt. She tugged at Xia Sheng worriedly. “Sheng Sheng, talk to Mom and let the two men talk.”

“Okay.” Xia Sheng did not put up any defenses and sat down beside Mother Song.

Mother Song glanced at Huo Ye again. She did not expect Huo Ye’s gaze to follow Xia Sheng. Seeing this scene, she felt even more uneasy.

Huo Ye was caught red-handed by Mother Song and didn’t feel awkward. He smiled and nodded.

“Sheng Sheng, he’s the person you’ve been hiding from, right?” Mother Song was a little resentful. Other than the wheelchair, Huo Ye was fine in all aspects.

However, it was precisely because he has a disability that she felt that Xia Sheng had suffered a huge loss. Seeing that Xia Sheng liked him, she felt embarrassed to do something so vicious as to break up the couple.

Xia Sheng scratched her head and admitted straightforwardly, “Yes, he’s the one who got married to me. I didn’t introduce him to you guys before because I’m afraid that you guys will despise his disability.”

Upon hearing this, Mother Song didn’t know what to say. She shook her head helplessly and said, “But he’s a member of the Huo family. The Huo family is in such a mess, what are you thinking?”

News of the Huo family’s mess had already spread, but Xia Sheng actually got involved with the other party.

“I want to keep him.” Xia Sheng’s words shocked Father Song and Mother Song so much that they choked on water and started coughing violently.

“Cough, cough!” Mama Song coughed until her face was red. She grabbed Xia Sheng’s clothes tightly, as if she was afraid that she would slip away once she let go. It took her a long time to recover.

“You child, how can you talk nonsense!” She scolded, but she did not have the heart to flare up.

Father Song also looked over with a strange expression, his eyes filled with curiosity and disapproval.

Xia Sheng caressed Mother Song’s back and helped her calm down. “Don’t be agitated. Believe me, the money I earn is enough to support a family!”

In order to prevent Xia Sheng from saying anything that would make people’s jaws drop, Father Song and Mother Song tacitly stopped asking about the two of them.

Apart from the small incident at the beginning, the meal was quite satisfactory.

After packing up, Xia Sheng and Huo Ye were sent back to their original home by private jet.

Returning to her familiar home, Xia Sheng threw herself heavily on the sofa and kicked off her shoes without any care for her image. “My home is still the most comfortable.”

Looking at Xia Sheng’s octopus-like sleeping posture, Huo Ye smiled dotingly. “How do you plan to keep me?”

Hearing this, Xia Sheng jumped up from the sofa and walked in front of Huo Ye, smiling. “You want to know?”

Huo Ye nodded. He was really curious about Xia Sheng’s explanation.

“Come here!” Xia Sheng beckoned and lowered her head, taking the initiative to kiss him.

“…”

All of a sudden, the entire villa was filled with cheers and laughter. As the sky turned dark, the sounds which were mixed with panting, slowly suppressed and finally returned to silence..
