Chapter 175: Let’s Take a Vacation
He Siming’s words failed to console Wen Shuyue, and he turned sullen.
Feeling the depression from He Siming, Wen Shuyue wore a grave look and leaned her head against the car window.
She looked at the bustling cars and said, “She is also my mother’s daughter. I feel perhaps we have gone too far…”
He Siming interrupted her coldly, “I waiting for Wen Shuyue to finish, He Siming’s cold voice was heard. “I spread the news of Lu Junhan. Since he wanted to hurt you back then, he has to pay the price.”
Although Wen Shuyue vaguely guessed that He Siming was behind this, she couldn’t accept it when he admitted it.
Wen Shuyue tightly clutched the seatbelt on her chest and took a deep breath. She said with feigned indifference, “I knew you did it. You might be the only one in the city who can get so many media to report his affairs.”
Her indifferent voice cheered He Siming up. He laughed and looked at Wen Shuyue gently. “I thought you would be angry with me. I didn’t expect you to react like this.”
“You got back at them for me. Why should I be angry?”
Her gentle voice silenced He Siming, who nodded suspiciously. They didn’t say anything else on the way.
When the car pulled over at the gate, He Siming took out two air tickets from his pocket like a magician.
“I asked for leave with Gu Ning for you. I want to make it up to you.”
Wen Shuyue frowned involuntarily at the air tickets and hesitated. She didn’t take them.
Her reaction surprised He Siming, who frowned at her.
He asked suspiciously with a hoarse voice, “What’s wrong? Don’t you like me to take you out on vacation?”
The next second, Wen Shuyue smiled and took the tickets from his hand. She explained with a joke, “I was just trying to stay here and watch the show. Since you want me to leave so much, I…”
Before she finished, the sullen look disappeared from He Siming’s face. He looked at her with a smile. “You will see the ending when you come back. Baobao has plenty of time these days, and we should take the chance to take a vacation.”
“Okay,” Wen Shuyue nodded without hesitation, and He Siming laughed. She pushed open the car door and looked back at him.
“Are you going inside with me or going back to the company? I seemed to have heard you turning pages through the phone.”
He Siming had planned to go back to the office. However, he was touched by her concern. He hesitated for a while and pushed open the car door.
He shook his car key and said, “I said that I was coming back to stay with you. I can’t go back.”
As the two of them stood at the door and laughed, they heard Wen Baobao’s voice. “Daddy, Mommy, why do you come back together today?”
“Hello, Uncle and Aunty.”
Clementine’s voice came from behind. He Siming pulled Clementine directly in his arms with affectionate eyes, which made Wen Baobao jealous.
Wen Baobao pouted and complained to He Siming, “I’m your son. Why are you so excited to see Clementine?”
He Siming ignored him and carried the little girl inside.
Wen Baobao watched them until they disappeared from his sight and turned to Wen Shuyue sadly. “Mommy, do you like Clementine too?”
Wen Shuyue looked at Wen Baobao in amusement. She stooped down and planted a gentle kiss on his forehead.
She said with a smile, “I’m not like your daddy. I like Baobao.”
After getting the answer he wanted, Wen Baobao cheered up and pulled Wen Shuyue into the house.
He muttered, “I’ll kick Clementine out in a while. I won’t let her come here again.”
“Why is there a sour smell in this room? Did you peel a lemon?”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Lu Yuan’er joked, and Wen Baobao’s face darkened.
He rolled his eyes at her and said sulkily, “What are you talking about? I guess Clementine’s family will be worried about her. She has stayed here for a long time.”
Lu Yuan’er was not convinced. She shook her head and rubbed her chin with one hand.
She teased, “I don’t think so. I don’t quite understand the look on your face, but I’m sure your mother knows about it. If you don’t believe me, let her take a look.”
Wen Shuyue took the hint and looked at Wen Baobao. She copied Lu Yuan’er’s tone. “She’s right. You are jealous.”
Wen Baobao was seen through. He turned sullen and snorted coldly. He stomped upstairs, and the two women laughed at his small figure.
“Shuyue, why did you get off work so early today? Shouldn’t you be working at the company at this hour every day?”
Lu Yuan’er stopped laughing and changed the topic to show her concern
“He Siming bought air tickets and said that we are taking a vacation.”
Lu Yuan’er heard that and got excited. She dashed up to Wen Shuyue and held her arm intimately.
“Did Siming say where we are going? When do we set off? Do I need to pack now?”
Her excited expression embarrassed Wen Shuyue, who smiled awkwardly. She looked at Lu Yuan’er for a long time before replying, “He booked only two tickets. It seems like you are not going with us.”
Wen Shuyue’s answer cooled Lu Yuan’er down. Lu Yuan’er lowered her head and leaned against the sofa.
She whined, “I knew he wouldn’t be so kind to take me out. I was bearing hope for that, and it turns out I shouldn’t have done that. The disappointment is killing me.”
“Aren’t you exaggerating? Doesn’t He Siming let you down many times? Does such a small thing break you?”
As Wen Shuyue spoke, she reached out to poke Lu Yuan’er on the chest a few times with deep affection.
