Chapter 231 Happy Birthday To You
“You” Ye Shaochen looked at Huo Yunqi in surprise, but seeing that he didn’t want to say anything more to him, he tactfully rubbed his nose. “I know, you should hurry up and find Luo Bing.”
Huo Yunqi grasped the car keys and quickly left the office.
This way, Charlotte specially bought a big cake before she drove home. Other than Xia Yan, Wang Xiaoman and Charlotte were there.
Seeing her enter, Wang Xiaoman hurriedly greeted her warmly and greeted her warmly, “Bing Bing, you’re finally here. Just now, your father was still talking.”
“Yes, sister. Dad has been waiting for you at the door since morning.” Xia Luoxin smiled and blinked at Xia Yan, “Dad, don’t you think so?”
Xia Yan smiled affectionately and waved to Xia Luobing, “Bing Bing, come over and sit here with Dad.”
“Happy birthday, Dad.” Xia Luobing handed over a watch of her own choosing. “I wish you the best of luck in the East China Sea.”
Xia Yan instantly smiled happily, and the wrinkles on his face were much smoother.
“Bing Bing, are there any good news you haven’t told Dad?” Xia Yan kindly asked, his eyes filled with gratification.
He owed Bing Bing too much. Seeing that her life was getting happier and happier, the guilt in his heart was slightly comforted.
Xia Luobing was stunned. He met the look of blind anticipation and unconsciously smiled. “Dad, you know.”
“Sister, are you really pregnant? Great, congratulations!” Xia Luoxin smiled sincerely, but only she knew that she wished Xia Luobing could lose the child immediately.
Xia Luobing was surprised. How did they get the news so quickly? However, thinking that today was the old man’s birthday, she suppressed his doubts and smiled faintly, “Thank you.”
After experiencing such a thing, how could she not understand what Xia Luoxin was thinking about Huo Yunqi, so she did not believe her congratulations.
“Bing Bing, auntie knows you’re pregnant, so she specially cooked the old duck soup.” Wang Xiaoman came out of the kitchen with a cup of soup and a loving expression on her face.
Anyone who didn’t know would probably think that she was Xia Luobing’s biological mother.
“Thank you.” Xia Luobing smiled politely and took a sip of the tea, causing a faint sense of unease to arise in her heart.
Is today really just for dad’s birthday?
“Bing Bing, what has Yunqi been busy with recently?” Xia Yan said, “I heard that QC has encountered some trouble recently. He is probably very upset.”
Xia Luobing frowned. These days, Huo Yunqi refused to let her know anything, so she really didn’t know the mood of the company.
“He will take care of it.” Charlotte smiled.
Xia Yan nodded, “That’s good! Originally, I forgot my birthday. It was Luo Xin who remembered it. You kids are already busy with your work, so you don’t have to keep thinking about my matters!”
Although that was what he said, Xia Yan was very gratified to hear it.
Xia Luobing narrowed his eyes and had his own thoughts in his heart, so could it be understood that Xia Luoxin and Wang Xiaoman knew that she was pregnant and had specially invited her to be a scoundrel
Just as this thought came to her mind, she was shocked, but the expression on her face did not fluctuate at all.
Bing Lai covered up the water and earth, but she wanted to see what else the mother and daughter could do.
“Sister Bing Bing, this is your favorite snack.” Xia Luoxin said politely, “I’ve asked the doctor. It’s good for pregnant women.”
Charlotte looked at the exquisite snacks on the plate in front of her and curved her lips. She had asked the doctor specifically.
“Bing Bing, Luo Xin is very concerned about you.” When Wang Xiaoman saw that Xia Luobing was just smiling at the snacks and didn’t move her chopsticks, she quickly said, “I heard that you have resigned recently. If you are bored at home alone, you can move back in so that Auntie can take care of you every day.”
Hearing this, Xia Yan immediately nodded in agreement, “Bing Bing, your aunt is right. If you move back, your father can take care of you.”
“Yunqi can take care of me.” Xia Luobing said calmly, wondering what the purpose of today’s Hongmen banquet was, and how much her father had participated in it?
Wang Xiaoman hit a nail in the head, and her expression was a little bad. She laughed dryly and said, “Bing Bing, don’t think too much. Auntie is also doing it for your own good.”
“Thank you, but I don’t need it.” Xia Luobing smiled, his eyebrows curved in a slightly abusive manner. “Nobody says that a woman should live apart from her husband when she is pregnant, right?”
Xia Luoxin clenched his fingers tightly, his heart filled with hatred, and the smile on his face wasn’t as natural as before.
“Sister Bing Bing, you and Yunqi haven’t remarried yet. Living together like this is not good for everyone.” Xia Luoxin finally couldn’t help but say, “You have to think of him.”
Xia Luobing never cared about Yunqi’s feelings. How could she be worthy of him like this?
Only she loved him wholeheartedly.
” Yunqi?” Xia Luobing raised her eyebrows and looked at Charlotte, who had been calling her sister, and sneered, “You care more about him than I do?”
What were these people thinking? Could it be that if she really moved back to live with Huo Yunqi, Xia Luoxin would have a chance to get close to Huo Yunqi?
Did she overestimate herself or underestimate Huo Yunqi?
“Luo Xin!” Xia Yan could not look over and interrupted her coldly, “Don’t interfere in your sister’s affairs.”
After all, he was someone who had been skilled in shopping for many years, so there was nothing he couldn’t understand at this moment, and his expression instantly turned ugly.
“Bing Bing, you and Yunqi have a good life. Don’t worry too much about other things.” Xia Yan looked at his eldest daughter apologetically, “Luo Xin is still young and ignorant, don’t argue with her.”
The corner of Charlotte’s mouth curved, her heart slightly less sad. At the very least, there was someone at home who cared about her.
“Old Xia, Luo Xin is also doing it for the sake of ice.” Wang Xiaoman said with a cold face, “After all, Bing Bing and Yunqi didn’t officially hold a wedding ceremony. What’s wrong with living together like this? Don’t you feel embarrassed?”
Xia Yan’s face was ashen with anger. He pointed at Wang Xiaoman and said angrily, “You, shut up!”
“I don’t think I’ve embarrassed you, have I?” Xia Luobing poured a glass of water for Xia Yan and patted his back. He stealthily swept past the mother and daughter opposite him and said bluntly, “Do you think that if I move back, those who harbor evil intentions will have a chance?”
Moreover, even if she agreed to move back to rent, she would still have to see if Yunqi Huo agreed or not.
“So Bing Bing is so confident in me?” Huo Yunqi walked in briskly. He listened to Wang Xiaoman and Xia Luoxin’s words clearly outside. Originally, he was going to come in soon, but he wanted to hear Bing Bing’s answer.
It turned out that even if she wasn’t the captain of the Criminal Police Force, Xia Luobing wasn’t that easy to knead.
“Yunqi” Xia Luoxin’s eyes lit up and he was eager to take a step forward, but in the end, he couldn’t help but bite his lips and said, “I did it for the good of my sister.”
Huo Yunqi walked straight to Xia Luobing’s side and placed her finger on her shoulder. “Why did you come alone? You should call me.”
Thinking that Huo Yunqi had heard her words clearly just now, Xia Luobing’s face turned green and pale. He gave him an awkward nudge and said unhappily, “Are you here differently?”
“If I don’t come, aren’t you being bullied?” Huo Yunqi pointed his finger and looked at Xia Luoxin. His originally gentle gaze was as cold as ice. “If you call me brother-in-law, I can barely accept it.”
Xia Luoxin’s face was deathly pale, as if she had suffered a great blow. He staggered back to her chair and looked at Yunqi. He said sadly, “I’m doing this for your own good.”
“No need.” Huo Yunqi said coldly, smashing at Xia Luoxin without any warmth.
Before he came in, he had clearly heard Charlotte’s aggressive words to Charlotte. How could he believe her now that she was pretending to be weak?
“Yunqi, how can you treat Luo Xin like this!” Wang Xiaoman couldn’t see it and said angrily, “She’s doing it for your own good and Luo Bing’s sake. What’s wrong with you guys living together like this?”
Unclear?
Huo Yunqi looked at Wang Xiaoman fiercely with a cold gaze as if he wanted to freeze him immediately. Wang Xiaoman couldn’t help but shiver as he looked at him. “I used the Xia Corporation as the bride price of ice. Why, don’t you remember?” He said indifferently.
Xia Luobing was nestled in Huo Yunqi’s embrace. Seeing Wang Xiaoman’s expression change again and again, she was in a good mood.
It turned out that it was such a happy thing to be protected by someone for no reason.
“If you feel that the betrothal gift is unclear, please give Miss Xia Luoxin the position of general manager.” Huo Yunqi said coldly.
Xia Yan and Xia Luoxin had always been in charge of the management company that Xia Luobing did not understand. Because of this, Xia Luoxin became the general manager of the Xia Group.
But now, it seems that people’s desires are always boundless.
“Don’t!” Wang Xiaoman was stunned for a moment and hurriedly opened her mouth. She also pulled Xia Luoxin beside her and said, “Luo Xin, don’t be willful.”
Although she looked very backward now, she still knew which side was important when compared to real gold and silver.
Xia Luoxin bit her lips until they were blue and purple. Finally, she looked at Huo Yunqi reluctantly and said, “President Huo, I’m sorry.”
She would rather use her superior-subordinate relationship than call him “brother-in-law”.
“The person you should apologize to is not me, but Bing Bing. She is the actual president of the Xia Corporation.” Huo Yunqi’s palm gently stroked Charlotte’s hair. Gently, for a moment, her face was full of pampering, but when facing Xia Luoxin, it was so cold that there was no temperature at all.
Charlotte’s face was as pale as a sheet of paper. Her eyes were filled with tears. She couldn’t bear to see it. She finally glanced at Huo Yunqi and said indifferently, “I’m tired. Let’s go back.”
If she had known that today was a Hongmen banquet, she should not have come at all.
“Dad, I can’t celebrate your birthday properly. I’ll make it up another day.” Xia Luobing smiled at Xia Yan.
Unknowingly, the man she thought was cold was already old.
Xia Yan’s lips stuttered. He looked at Huo Yunqi and then at Xia Luobing. He sighed and said, “Ice, Luo Xin can’t turn around for a while. Don’t argue with her.”
“Alright, I know.” Xia Luobing smiled and leaned against Huo Yunqi, slowly leaving the Xia Clan’s living room.
She didn’t know if it was because she was pregnant that she became a little sentimental. At this moment, her heart was feeling uncomfortable.
Huo Yunqi seemed to have seen through her thoughts and did not break it. He hugged her shoulder and said dotingly, “Don’t worry, I have always been by your side.”
