The wife of a powerful family: Huo Shao, how dare you flirt with me

âwith a few friends. â Huo Nanchen did not specify who they were, but Gu Ruochu did not ask further.
With a few friends, that meant that they were not alone.
âI didnât call to ask clearly in the beginning. â Gu Ruochu subconsciously hid her scalded hand. She had actually called, but he had kept his phone switched off.
Forget it, I wonât bring trouble upon myself.
She did not ask further. Instead, Huo Nanchen furrowed his brows and looked at her. He could not tell what other emotions were on his face. Gu Ruochuâs heart trembled when she saw this and she closed her eyes.
He did not say anything else. He was reminded of how she looked like before.
She was quiet, obedient, and sensible.
Now that he looked at her, how could she be so dazzling.
â...â
At night, almost everyone had gathered. Mrs. Huo accompanied the old lady back from the temple. Even Huo Zijun, who had previously been nowhere to be found, was at home.
Huo Nanchen glanced at him and his eyes darkened. âWhy donât you continue to stay in the Southern Hemisphere? I thought you would never dare to come back. â
He had never thought that Huo Zijun would dare to drug him for no reason.
âsister-in-law, how could you bear to leave me alone in the Southern Hemisphere, right? â Huo Zijun asked with a smile. This divine assistant of his was not bad, right?
Although there seemed to be some twists and turns in the middle, it still broke the deadlock between them.
Sigh, Iâm so angry. If I take this one step further, Iâll be able to ask my brother for more benefits.
âOh, one look and I can tell that itâs mother Zhangâs cooking. Oh, oh, itâs so delicious! â Huo Zijun cried like a silly Husky. After spending so many days in the wild, how could he not know that even if his brother really did drug him, his anger would be long gone.
Gu Ruochu:â...â
Old Madam Huo seemed to be in an exceptionally good mood as she kept pulling Gu Ruochu to help her with the dishes.
These few days, she had returned to the temple to fulfill her wish. She had specially arranged her birth characters for this granddaughter-in-law and Nan Chen. Only then did she realize that she was destined to be extraordinary. Most importantly, she would bring happiness to her grandson.
Many years ago, a great master once said that his grandson was filled with a vicious aura. Unless he met a noble, he would be destined to die alone.
The old man had always been superstitious, so his impression of Gu Ruochu had deepened.
âCome, letâs eat a little more, ruo Chu. â
âThank you, grandmother. â
Although the old lady had always treated her fairly well, she was not as warm-hearted. Gu Ruochuâs heart was filled with black question marks.
Seeing that the pile of dishes was getting higher, Gu Ruochu was too embarrassed to remind her. She really could not eat that much.
âRuo Chu, has Nanchen been bullying you recently? â
âNo, heâs been very good to me. â
Upon hearing this, Huo Nanchen deliberately glanced sideways at her as if he was trying to tell if she was sincere or just perfunctory.
âreally? Donât lie to grandma. If he dares to bully you, grandma will definitely help you teach him a good lesson. â Old Mrs. Huo looked like a cute little child.
Huo Nanchen smiled faintly. âGrandma, I donât believe my words. You should believe my wifeâs words. I plan to watch the sunrise with Ruo Chu in the next few days. â
âWatch the sunrise? It canât be that famous phantom in an Cheng, right? â Huo Zijunâs eyes turned into crescent moons. âThatâs good. Itâs quite romantic. Brother, youâve finally understood. â
The Phantom was the most famous sunrise point in an Cheng. It was said that this was the place where the sun first rose and was called the phantom. It was a beautiful and civilized place.
Gu Ruochu looked over in surprise and happened to meet him. A bright ray of light seemed to rise from within her pitch-black eyes as if it was about to drag her inside and completely subdue her.
