Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation     Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At this moment, Huo Xuan held his phone and listened to his father’s happy voice calling his mother’s name. He did not dare to speak.

He looked up at his mother, who seemed to be sending an email seriously without looking at him. He pursed his lips.

The next moment, he stood up from the sofa and walked to his mother’s desk.

He was stunned.

His mother did not send an email. Instead, she was watching the news. Therefore, his mother was unwilling to pay attention to his father. She only found an excuse to let him answer the phone.

Gu Qingcheng was looking at Gu Mei and Qin Jun’s trending searches. She then looked at her and Qi Shaoze’s trending searches, then looked at the comments about her going to the Peach Lotus Cup.

The comments she made at the Peach Lotus Cup were all encouraging her.

The comments about her and Qi Shaoze all urged them to make their relationship public and get married.

Netizen’s comments about Gu Mei and Qin Jun, on the other hand, were nothing but insults.

Engrossed, she han’t noticed Huo Xuan coming to her side at all. It was only when she felt her son’s gaze that she turned her head, realizing that he was standing beside her and looking at her computer.

She looked at Huo Xuan awkwardly. She wanted to say something, but when she saw that his phone was pressed against his ear, she chose to remain silent. Huo Xuan looked at Gu Qingcheng pitifully with his big black eyes, as if he wanted her to answer the call.

She shook her head at Huo Xuan, indicating that she would not answer the call. Huo Xuan saw his mother’s actions and slowly exhaled. “Daddy, it’s me.”

At that moment, the joy in Huo Sicheng’s eyes froze on his face when he heard his son’s voice.

“Huo Xuan…

“Yes, Daddy. It’s me.” Huo Xuan could hear the disappointment in his father’s tone. He felt very upset and said softly. “Dad, Mom asked you to come to Royal Dance to bring me back to the villa. Do you have time?”

When Huo Sicheng heard that it wasn’t Gu Qingcheng’s voice, he was devastated.

She didn’t want to see him, and she didn’t want to hear his voice even when they were talking. He could feel her disdain through the phone.

However, he was delighted once again.

No matter how much she refused to see him, at least she was willing to let him pick up her son.

He would be able to see her if he went to Royal Dance to pick up his son.

The thought of seeing Gu Qingcheng made his eyes light up again.

“Okay, I’ll go and pick you up now. Wait for me with Mom.”

“Alright.” Huo Xuan replied. “I will wait for you to pick me up, Daddy.”

“Wait for me.’

He pressed the button on his wheelchair and left the sea of flowers to pick up his son. He could also see Gu Qingcheng.

Huo Xuan hung up the phone after he finished speaking. He sent a message to her father without leaving a trace, deleting the message before handing the phone to his mother.

Gu Qingcheng looked at Huo Xuan’s sad face and averted her gaze guiltily. That was why she didn’t see Huo Xuan texting Huo Sicheng on her phone.

She was very sad. She should not have let her son, Huo Xuan, be caught in the conflict between her and Huo Sicheng.

“Mom, phone.”

“Uh…” Gu Qingcheng looked at Huo Xuan, took the phone, and put it back into her handbag. She said gently, “Kiddo, I…”

Huo Xuan could tell that her mother was conflicted. He hugged her sensibly.

“Mommy, you don’t have to explain. I understand.”

Gu Qingcheng felt a lump in her throat. She reached out and hugged Huo Xuan.

Regardless of whether Huo Xuan understood her or not, his words were enough to warm her heart.

“My sweet little boy.” She kissed his little face. “Mommy loves you.”

Huo Xuan leaned into Gu Qingcheng’s arms. “I love you too, Mommy.”

Waiting for Huo Sicheng took a long time. Gu Qingcheng knew that Huo Xuan was good at computers, so she made up an excuse for him to teach her how to code until Huo Sicheng arrived at Royal Dance.

Time ticked by, and Gu Qingcheng was chatting happily with Huo Xuan when she heard the knock on the door. She placed the baby on the wide computer chair and went to open the door.

Seeing this, Huo Xuan quietly entered the inner room.

When Gu Qingcheng opened the door, Li Jing was standing there. She asked in surprise, “What’s the matter?”

Li Jing looked at Gu Qingcheng calmly. She said nothing, shook her head, and turned to leave.

Gu Qingcheng was surprised by Li Jing’s strange reaction.

She was about to go out and ask Li Jing what had happened, but before she could walk out, she saw a large lily of the valley bouquet appear in front of her. Every individual flower was extremely beautiful. The faint fragrance in the air entered her nose and penetrated her heart.

She was stunned. Not only did she see the lily of the valley, but she also saw Huo Sicheng’s handsome face.

However, he was a simple man. As long as Gu Qingcheng appeared in front of him. he only had eves for her.

No matter what, it was enough as long as Gu Qingcheng was by his side.

“I went to the sea of flowers and picked them myself.” He gazed at Gu Qingcheng with his slanted eyes and said in a low and gentle voice. “I hope you like it.”

Gu Qingcheng loved the lily of the valley.

She looked at the tenderness in Huo Sicheng’s eyes and heard the gentleness in his voice. Her heart was beating wildly.

He was allergic to pollen and even went to the sea of lily of the valley to pick some for her. She did not agree with his actions. She was even angry that he took medicine to pick flowers for her and did not take care of his body.

She was, however, very easy to coax. Huo Sicheng only needed a bouquet of flowers to make her happy.

She wanted to accept this bouquet badly, but when she thought of him and Miss Li, she felt very sad.

She couldn’t forgive his behavior, so she refused to accept the flowers

“Kiddo.” She turned around and looked into the room, but Huo Xuan was nowhere to be seen. She knew that Huo Xuan must not want to be a third wheel and had gone into the room, so she turned around and went back inside.

In Huo Sicheng’s eyes, Gu Qingcheng’s expression was indifferent. When she saw the lily of the valley, she was stunned for a moment, but not happy at all.

He held his breath. She was expressionless even when she saw the flowers she liked. It could be seen how much she rejected him.

Despair. He was very upset.

The moment Gu Qingcheng turned her back to Huo Sicheng, her heart ached so much that she couldn’t breathe.

However, she still took a deep breath to ease her sadness.

She opened the door and looked at Huo Xuan, who was sitting on the sofa at the door. She reached out her hand and said gently, “Baby, come here. Daddy is here to pick you up.”

Huo Xuan was stunned when she saw her mother. She didn’t expect her mother to not talk to her father.

It seemed that his father had failed to make his mother happy. He obediently walked in front of his mother and placed his hand in her hand. She led him out of the inner room.

When he saw his father, he obediently walked over.

“Mom, Dad and I will go home first.” He still looked at his mother without giving up. “Mom, come home early after you’re done.” Gu Qingcheng nodded.

Huo Xuan tugged at her father’s sleeve. “Dad, let’s go.”

Huo Sicheng looked at Gu Qingcheng. He had so many things to say, but he didn’t finish his sentence. He took his son, Huo Xuan, and prepared to leave.

Huo Xuan looked at Huo Sicheng carefully and asked, “Daddy, are you a scumbag?”
