Chapter 752: Chapter 751: 751, the tiger mom at home is strict

“Is it her?” He looked at Su Wanwan, then turned his gaze to Yan Shunhua.

Yan Shunhua nodded with a smile.

“Get in.” The man said, and went to open the rear car door.

Su Wanwan hesitated a bit.

The man was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, looking to be in his forties. He was tall and straight, with well-defined features, exuding an air of mature elegance in every move he made.

In terms of appearance, dress, and even demeanor, he didn’t look like a typical chauffeur at all.

...

“Wanwan, get in the car.” Yan Shunhua introduced, “This is my good friend. You can call him Uncle Gu. He’s heading back to the city center, he can drop you off at home.”

“Oh.”

With this revelation, Su Wanwan nodded, “Thanks for the trouble, Uncle Gu.”

“No need for formalities.”

The man didn’t seem to be much of a talker.

Aside from the fine lines at the corners of his eyes and few strands of grey hair, a hint to his age, Su Wanwan would never have guessed that he was an uncle. With a height of over 1.8 meters, he was slim and muscular. His eyes were sharp and intelligent, and his suit was meticulous, showing a distinct taste for refinement.

Su Wanwan rarely communicated alone with such sharp-witted elders.

Especially seeing the way he interacted with Yan Shunhua, brief and to the point, without excessive decorum – he must be a close friend.

And if he could be good friends with Yan Shunhua, he certainly wouldn’t be an ordinary businessman. This made Su Wanwan even more careful around him.

Once in the car, she sat in the back seat. The man took the front passenger seat. The driver was an honest-looking man in his fifties.

“Tianquan Royal Court.”

“Alright, sir.”

After this exchange, an uncomfortable silence filled the car.

Su Wanwan quietly took out her phone.

She put it on silent mode, played a couple of games of King’s Glory, a round of PUBG, and then browsed through TikTok…

Finally, the man broke the silence again, “Which building?”

Anxious, Su Wanwan said, “You can stop at the entrance.”

“Which building?” the man asked again.

Damn it!

Feeling intensely pressured, Su Wanwan finally answered, “Building 69.”

“Building 69.” The man repeated.

“Alright.” The driver responded, and drove into the residential compound.

Hurriedly, Su Wanwan messaged Huo Jingshen, “Honey, I’m almost at the villa. Can you come out and meet me?”

This man was silent and intimidating, with an age and generation gap between them. She was honestly feeling stressed…

It would be nice if Huo Jingshen could come out to put Uncle Gu at ease and at the same time show his gratitude. But…

“I’m outside.”

In a rush, Su Wanwan asked, “What are you doing out there?”

“Just entertaining some people.” Huo Jingshen explained succinctly.

“Okay, then.”

Great, her husband was useless at the moment!

When the car stopped outside of Villa 69, Su Wanwan was quick to push the car door open, “Thank you, Uncle Gu, we’re home.”

“You don’t have to be so polite with me.”

With a forced laugh, Su Wanwan said, “Okay…”

As she got out of the car, she couldn’t help saying one last thing, “Thank you, Uncle Gu. Safe travels.”

The man: “…”

**

After Su Wanwan got out of the car and entered the house, the man gave the command, “Let’s drive.”

The driver immediately started the car.

The man then took out his phone and dialed a number.

It connected quickly and Yan Shunhua’s soft voice came through the phone, “Is she home?”

“She’s home.”

“Thank you, Shaoting.”

Gu Shaoting frowned, “Ajun, I’ve told you many times, you never need to be polite with me.”

Yan Shunhua just smiled and changed the subject, “I feel that the distance from Mansion No. 1 to the city is just too far. It’s inconvenient for work.”

“If you’d like, I also have some houses in the city…”

“No need.” Yan Shunhua interrupted, “I’ve already had my assistant looking for a place in the same place as where Wanwan lives, the Royal Court.”

“Got it, I’ll help you keep an eye out.”

“Thank you.”

Gu Shaoting’s brow furrowed tighter but, in the end, he didn’t say anything else.

Meanwhile, in a private club’s VIP room.

Huo Zhexi’s impatient voice echoed out, “Big brother, what the hell is with this Zhou? We said seven, and it’s almost half an hour past. He’s not here yet. He’s doing this on purpose, isn’t he?”

Thin lips exhaled a puff of smoke, Huo Jingshen squinted at him, “Why do you have to curse in every sentence, can’t you articulate without swearing?”

Huo Zhexi was dissatisfied, “Big brother, I meant well for you.”

“Shut up!”

Huo Zhexi: “…”

He really didn’t understand why his elder brother suddenly dragged him to this social event tonight.

As a result, they had been waiting here for more than half an hour, stomach rumbling with hunger while the person they were supposed to do business with was showing off their status by not showing up on time.

Holy hell, someone in Nancheng dared to keep the Huo Family waiting? His head ached with irritation.

Another ten or so minutes passed, the door was pushed open, and Ji Jie walked in with his phone, “Mr. Huo, Young Master Zhou said there’s traffic on the road. He will be here shortly.”

“Hmm,” Huo Jingshen raised his finger and tapped his cigarette twice, ashing it.

His expression and movements were all very calm.

But Huo Zhexi couldn’t stand it anymore. He jumped up and said, “Fucking hell, big brother, is this any way to talk? That Zhou kid is only two years younger than you, and he has the nerve to keep you waiting. This dumbass kid…isn’t he just counting on his father to die soon so that the entire Zhou Family is his? I fucking- ow!”

Huo Jingshen slapped the back of his head.

Huo Zhexi grimaced in pain, “Big brother, why did you hit me?”

“There was a fly on your head.” Huo Jingshen said casually, with no change in expression.

Huo Zhexi rubbed the back of his head and swallowed his grievances.

A fly on his head?

You gotta be kidding me!

But he was used to it. Despite his elder brothers’ refined appearance, he didn’t hold back during tense moments.

Quick. Ruthless. Accurate.

What can I do?

I’m also desperate.

But I’m not going to just stand there and take a beating, am I?

So he sat down in a corner, with a pouty face, not too happy.

Finally, after another twenty minutes, the door opened and Ji Jie’s voice resounded, “Young Master Zhou, please come in.”

Hearing the sound, Huo Zhexi immediately looked over.

“Mr. Huo, Young Master Huo, oh dear, I am so sorry. I left home an hour early, who knew I’d be stuck in traffic.”

The man wore a pink shirt paired with black suit pants, with a pretty face, excessively fair and delicate skin, and a pair of peach blossom eyes that naturally exuded frivolity.

Huo Zhexi quickly glanced at his elder brother.

Hurry up and listen! This effeminate guy loves to use the ‘f word’ too.

Huo Jingshen, however, was still looking composed,” It doesn’t matter as long as you are here, let’s sit.”

Young Master Zhou sat down with a smile, followed by a middle-aged woman.@@novelbin@@

She was wearing all-black professional attire, black stockings, high heels, and a pair of black glasses.

She must be his secretary.

Huo Zhexi glanced at her and quickly turned away.

His elder brother told him, men with female secretaries usually have ulterior motives.

Like Chu Xiuhuang.

He seduced his secretary, who had been with him for more than five years, and they quit their jobs to raise children. They were even getting married next month. So irresponsible!

No sooner had Young Master Zhou sat down than he said, “Mr. Huo, why don’t you invite some girls over?”

Huo Zhexi rolled his eyes.

Huo Jingshen lightly smiled, “Young Master Zhou, do as you please. I don’t need any company as my wife keeps a tight rein at home.”

The corners of Young Master Zhou’s eyes crinkled with laughter, “I’ve heard that Mr. Huo has married a beautiful and delicate wife, why didn’t you bring her over tonight?”

Huo Zhexi glared at him.

You dare tease my sister-in-law?

Are you itching for a smack?

Surprisingly, Huo Jingshen wasn’t angry. He snapped his fingers and Ji Jie immediately beckoned to the manager outside.

The manager who was standing outside bowed respectfully as he walked in, “Is there anything you need?”

Huo Jingshen looked at Young Master Zhou, his gaze signifying him to say it.

Young Master Zhou didn’t hold back and smirked while leaning back, “Do you have any student-type girls?”

Holy shit!

Huo Zhexi was dumbfounded. Wasn’t he here to discuss business? Why is he asking for girls?

The manager immediately put on a smile, “Yes, we do. What type would Young Master Zhou prefer?”

Young Master Zhou said with a smug smile, “One who’s on the paler side, a little reserved.”

After that, he looked at Huo Zhexi, “Young Master Huo, would you like one too?”

Huo Zhexi immediately snorted, “I have a girlfriend.”

“I also have a girlfriend, but we are out to have fun tonight. No company makes doing business among three men quite boring.”

Perhaps seeing that Huo Zhexi was also disinterested, Young Master Zhou, finally impatient, waved his hand holding the cigarette, “Hurry up and call them over.”

“I understand, please wait a moment.” The manager immediately went to call them.

Once the room door was closed, Young Master Zhou laughed and asked, “Mr. Huo, what has happened to Ahuang recently that he’s not making appearances?”

Huo Jingshen raised an eyebrow, “Ahuang is preparing for his wedding.”
