WARNING! Tsundere President - Chapter 521

Huo Zhenning finally finished with his work at nine before going back home.

He studied the little boy, Huo Xu, sitting beside Lu Zhaoyang.

Xue Yuming had already warned him earlier about them, so he treated the mother and child with basic manners but no more than that.

Had this son of Huo Yunting’s been born out of a normal marriage, he would have loved the boy to bits.

It was a pity.

Now that the Huo family business was in peril, he had no time to deal with other issues. That was the only reason he accepted the fact that his son and step daughter had gotten married with a child without making much fuss!

Recently, he had tried to reach out to Yunting many times to ask him to help with the family business. Huo Zhenning was feeling his age and could no longer deal with the problems from Xiang Yuan Corp.

If his son refused to help, the Huo family business might just end soon enough.

Since Lu Zhaoyang had once worked with Xiang Jinxi, she still had value to him.

On the other hand, Xue Yuming was all smiles, which was a completely different attitude than before.

Lu Zhaoyang was annoyed but there was nothing she could do. She quietly filled her son’s bowl with the dishes on the table.

After dinner, Xue Yuming invited Lu Zhaoyang and her son to stay the night.

Lu Zhaoyang declined immediately and was about to leave with Huo Chen when Huo Zhenning spoke up.

“Chen, business has been hectic recently. Please stay and help me with them, I am feeling unwell lately and could not do as much as I want to. The Huo business is your responsibility, too.”

Huo Zhenning had it all planned. If his son would not help, then he would ask his younger brother. After all, Huo Chen’s former position in the military still held some weight.

If that did not work too, then he would allow Lu Zhaoyang and Huo Yunting to be together.

Their country’s marital laws did not forbid mother and daughter of one family to marry father and son from another family, respectively. He would rather endure more scandals than allow the family business to go bankrupt. With all the issues going on in the Huo family recently, what was one more scandal worth?

Huo Yunting might just assist with the Huo family business given that his wife and daughter were here.

“Stay. I will be fine going back myself.” Lu Zhaoyang noticed Huo Chen’s hesitation and offered with a smile.

“Be careful.” Huo Chen nodded at her gratefully.

It did not take long for her son to fall asleep in her car as they made their way back.

It was late when they reached the hotel. Lu Zhaoyang had just stepped into the room and was about to slot the room card in when someone in the darkness put a hand over her mouth!

She inhaled sharply and hugged her son closer to her.

… Surely they would not be so unlucky as to be robbed, right?

Lu Zhaoyang was about to bite the intruder’s hand when she smelled a strong smell of alcohol.

The callouses on the palm were also familiar, and they looked like… Huo Yunting’s?!

Huo Yunting let go of her and promptly snatched the boy in her arms away, leaving her no time to fight back. He opened the door and passed the boy to Huo Li, who was waiting outside.

“Bring him to a room upstairs to sleep.”

“Sure, boss!”

Huo Li carefully carried the young boy in his arms and closed the door behind him.

It had been four years since they last met. He looked forward to a lively night with her.

Lu Zhaoyang gripped tightly onto her room card. She felt him approach her and retreated slowly.

Huo Yunting’s silence made her nervous.

She understood the man too well. This was the calm before the storm.

He was mad, very mad, and he was about to swallow her alive.

“Ah…” Finally, she heard his characteristic laid-back voice in the darkness. “You had an affair and even bore a child with another man. Did you do all that just because I wasn’t looking for you?
