Wen He looked at the Madam in amused awe. That acting, it was literally Oscar worthy!
All that experience sure was not for nothing.
She stealthily tugged the edge of Huo Chen’s shirt, her lips still as she had some nasal notes, “I’m okay with that. We can divorce later on. I’ll go along with anything as long it helps me to get what I want.”
And their posture, before everyone was like two lovers whispering sweet nothings to other.
Huo Chen listened but his gaze reflexively fell on Lu Zhaoyang.
Huo Yunting seemed to have anticipated that, as his left hand circled around the back of the sofa purposefully grabbing the waist of a surprised Lu Zhaoyang’s, before giving in a good pinch.
Lu Zhaoyang shuddered slightly as she broke out of her stupor and gave Huo Yunting an angry gaze.
He tilted his head as he laughed, before pursing his lips. It was clear as day to everyone else he was sending flying kisses.
Lu Zhaoyang turned away as she looked downwards, her face reddened.
That prankster, he actually dared to do that in front of so many Huo’s!
And that scene immediately made a mark in Huo Chen’s eyes.
It seems like Yangyang would not leave Yunting.
As he was Xuxu’s real father and the three of them being together—it was a good thing.
“Mother, consider me agreeing to that.”
Huo Chen retracted his gaze and finally relented.
As he no longer had any concerns, even if he was to marry, the marriage is only for posturing and he is not even bothered about signing the papers.
“That’s good, I actually had already gotten someone to prepare while you still in the hospital. I heard Xiao He saying that both her parents had passed on and she did not have many relatives so I went ahead and decided for her. I’ll inform you two once I have picked an auspicious date!”
After the whole fiasco between him and Lu Zhaoyang, whatever views that Madam had was now up in smokes and the marriage and whatnot were pretty much pointless. What she wants now was to find her son a proper wife, that was all.
If this was not settled, she will forever be worried that Lu Zhaoyang and him will one day come together again.
The hall suddenly turned silent and only after a while did someone spoke.
“Not well?”
It was Huo Yunting’s voice and Lu Zhaoyang almost wanted to shake her head reflexively, but as she looked up she noticed his gaze was aimed at her mother.
Ever since Xue Yuming’s miscarriage last time, she had been unwell, plus the weather wrecking havoc, she was getting worse day after day.
And now that the Huo’s are undergoing changes and Huo Chen was about to marry, she really hoped that she do not fall sick. Without expensive medicines to nurse her, her body would collapse sooner or later.
“It’s nothing. I’m fine.” She shook her head as she withstood the discomfort but in her heart she really wanted to leave.
But everyone was here and if she had left, what would she do if she missed out any important details?
“After killing your own child and framing it on me, it’s a wonder you can lie with such a straight face? You’re fine? How about your conscience?”
Huo Yunting couched on the sofa as his brow lifted menacingly and he snorted.
“Yunting, you kept bringing up that matter again and again until today, what’s the meaning of you always rubbing salt onto my wounds? I had told you a thousand times, I did not. Don’t you accuse me for nothing!”
Xue Yuming forced herself to calm down. Huo Zhenning would trust her!
He definitely would!
But one thing she did not understand, she had already told Huo Yunting that big secret. Why is he still doing this to her?
Lu Zhaoyang’s lips slowly formed a line and understood why he had forbade Xuxu from coming along.

Having a child around in this tense atmosphere was indeed not a good idea.
She bitterly smiled in her heart.
A cold sneer appeared within Huo Yunting’s eyes, “If you want me to lay the evidence out before you, I can do that too.”
“You’re up to no good again! Yunting, I know you hate me and I am at fault for that, but I will not allow you to mock that poor child of mine! Today’s a good day, don’t ruin the mood!”
Xue Yuming felt a slight unease as soon as she heard the word ‘evidence’. Her eyes flickered.
…Is Huo Yunting just pricking her on purpose or does he have any real evidence?
But regardless, she would not admit to anything!
She casted a glance towards Huo Zhenning as she had to contend with her nervousness, and found him not paying any attention at all. His mind probably on the company again.
He sure could bear it given his wife just got trampled all over!
And at that moment, a servant brought a stranger in.
Xue Yuming looked over curiously and as soon as she saw the person, her face turned pale.
That…that was the person she bought the medicine from!
She had given him lots of money then to shut his mouth, so why is he here mucking things up!
Xue Yuming subconsciously looked at Huo Yunting and realized that he was planning to drive her against the wall all along…
“Madam…This…I had no choice, I had used up the money you gave me. If you gave me more back then, I could still hide this for you…but…”
The man then shook his head as he recalled what the special assistant had drilled him and repeated it word for word, “So that abortion medication you gotten from me, was it effective? Did it work?”
…Abortion medication!
Huo Zhenning who was deep in thought suddenly woke from his stupor and glared at the man, “You meant that she bought the abortion medication!?”
“Yes, sir. She said she was older now, and its not safe to have a child, and she may die during labor, so she decided to got rid of it while it was still young.”
The man laughed as he recalled the conversation back then.
“You’re lying! I did not! I was at home all along, how could I purchase the medicine from you!”
She had snuck out in the middle of the night, in disguise even, she could not believe she was still detected after keeping incognito!
As she panicked, she pointed towards Huo Yunting, “Did you set this up to frame me?”
“I have records in my shop, and I still have it you know. Do you want to see it? Ah, I did bring it with me!”
“Ah..Ah…”Xue Yuming’s screech interrupted the man.
“Dear, Mum! Trust me, I did not!” Xue Yuming immediately grabbed onto Huo Zhenning’s arm, “He’s a madman! He’s bought out by Huo Yunting, I really did not do that….”
The more agitated she was, the more guilty she looked.
“Enough,” Huo Yunting smirked lazily, “The best part hasn’t ended yet. We can find time to meet the person you had paid to send newspapers to my mum in the sanatorium some day.”
“No! It wasn’t me! No!”
Xue Yuming had totally lost it. It was originally a peaceful day, why did it suddenly became this?
No, no!!
Lu Zhaoyang’s breathing paused for moment as she heard that.
She had long known about her mother aborting her baby to frame Huo Yunting and seeing that she was still denying it at this stage, Lu Zhaoyang was wholeheartedly disappointed.
But she had never thought that her mother would send newspapers to Aunt Qiu…
She wanted to cause Aunt Qiu’s condition to worsen, that much was obvious!
