Chapter 574 Act Against Shao Yunxi
"Yeah, it's been a while." Chen Li replied with a nod. "Should I call you my mother-in-law now? I-Ouch!"
Suddenly, Huo Qingya pinched Chen Li's waist while fiercely glaring at him, especially since she had not fully accepted him, but she was already thinking about calling her mother like that.
"Hehe." Shen Linghua chuckled at her daughter's behavior. "It seems Qingya is still shy about admitting her relationship with you, but I like it if you call me that way."
"Mother!"
Huo Lingxun could only sigh at her daughter's expression, but he realized that it was too late to separate them. "All right, you guys can sit and have breakfast with us."
Since Shao Yunxi sat in the middle between Shen Linghua and Huang Xiaohai, Chen Li decided to sit in front of her, and the two women sat flanking him on either side.
Shen Linghua then ordered the servants to bring out all the dishes, and she spoke to Chen Li. "Long Wang, I still have many questions for you, so I hope you can take your time to chat with me."
"Sure." Chen Li unhesitatingly agreed to Shen Linghua's request, and he briefly glanced at Huang Xiaobai. "I also want to talk to you and my father-in-law about my relationship with Qingya, but I don't want to talk in front of your guests, and we will talk privately later."
"Cough... Cough..." Huo Lingxun choked after hearing that, as he felt strange hearing Chen Li address him like that, and he wanted to forbid her from calling him that before they got married, but Shen Linghua squinted her eyes at him. 'Tch! Not only did he steal my daughter's heart, but he also stole my wife's heart.'
'This guy! His skin is much thicker than the wall! I haven't even agreed to marry him yet!' Huo Qingya inwardly grumbled as she lowered her embarrassed face.
"That's good." Shen Linghua was satisfied with that. "You can finish your business first, so we can talk in a relaxed atmosphere later."
'Hehe, you really understand me, huh?' Chen Li replied in a teasing tone, and he explained everything to Huo Qingya, causing her to shake her head helplessly. 'Their mistake was lusting after Xian'er, and I will never forgive anyone who had such thoughts towards her.'
After they finished their breakfast, Huang Jinyuan and Huang Xiaohai rushed back to their courtyard to check on Shao Yunxi's condition, but she sealed the door and did not respond to their calls, so they decided to wait for her to come out.
Meanwhile, Huo Qingya and Feng Xian'er went straight to the hill behind the sect to continue their training, and Chen Li went to the mist forest again to complete his mission.
Huo Lingxun then led his wife away while asking her. "Do you really want Qingya to become Long Wang's wife?"
"Yes." Shen Linghua nodded to her husband. "You may still doubt my decision, but you will realize that Long Wang is the best man for our daughter after you talk to him later, and I am completely confident that Qingya will be happy if he becomes his wife."
Huo Lingxun released a soft sigh after that. "Sigh, I hope you are right with your decision, as I don't want my two daughters to live in misery for the rest of their lives, so I want them to get husbands who can truly love and protect them."
"Hey, they are both my daughters too, and I naturally want the best husbands for them." Shen Linghua then hugged her husband's arm. "We both know that Yang Hao is a good man, but he was too lazy in the past. However, he has changed now, and Rui loves him so much, so we can only pray that she will succeed in winning his heart again. As for Long Wang, you don't need to doubt him, and he will definitely make Qingya happy."
Huo Lingxun just nodded and spoke again. "I've raised them from birth, and the thought of our daughters getting married and leaving us to go with their husbands somehow scares me, but their marriage is an inevitable thing, especially since they are adults now."
"Ha ha." Shen Linghua laughed softly and laid her head on Huo Lingxun's shoulder. "When we first met, you were still too ignorant, and you often acted carelessly, which often annoyed me. However, I knew that you were a good man, so I decided to accept when you proposed to me, and my choice was not wrong because you love me and our daughters very much. That's why I want you to believe in my decision, and our daughters will definitely get happiness like mine."
"We've been married for a long time, but you still remember all that. Honestly, I was afraid that you would reject my proposal back then, so I really found it hard to believe when you accepted my proposal, but I was truly happy at that time, and I even had difficulty sleeping thinking about our wedding." Huo Lingxun then asked his wife. "What if we have another child?"
"Huh?" Shen Linghua looked up at him in surprise, but he immediately agreed. "All right, I also don't want to feel lonely if our daughters leave us in the future, so it would be better for us to have another child. Moreover, we don't have a son to inherit your hard work yet, so I hope that our third child is a son."
"Ha ha ha!" Huo Lingxun laughed out loud after hearing that, and he immediately carried Shen Linghua before carrying her back to their room with joy.
