Huo Cixiao followed his wife's instructions and went to deliver holiday greetings to his uncles. Well, actually, it was just wishing them a happy new year and good health.
I also sent several large red envelopes to my younger cousins.
Pei Qian replied instantly: Wow, A-Xiao listens to his wife so well.
Huo Cixiao: "..." His uncle, who's supposed to be losing money, actually guessed it was his wife who called him that. He's got some brains, I suppose.
After leaving the study, Huo Cixiao saw Luo Beishi engrossed in his phone again. He walked over and patted Luo Beishi's head, but his eyes were fixed on Momo. "Wife, Momo is sleepy. Let him sleep."
Luo Beishi looked down at the Xiao Bai dog in his arms. "I can hug it even when it's asleep, it's so fluffy and nice to touch."
Huo Cixiao: "Good boy, if you sleep with your legs bent, you'll become lame."
Luo Beishi was shocked. Surely the big boss wouldn't lie to him? If Momo really was crippled, then it would be his fault! Reluctantly, Luo Beishi had no choice but to get up and go to the corner to put Momo in its simple nest, since its big villa hadn't arrived yet.
Huo Cixiao smiled faintly, thinking to himself that his wife was really cute.
After Luo Beishi returned, he sat back down on the sofa and pulled Huo Cixiao to sit down with him.
Huo Cixiao asked in confusion, "Wife? What's wrong?"
Luo Beishi said mysteriously, "Let me show you. Your scumbag father is in jail now. It's all over the aristocratic family group chat. Take a look."
Huo Cixiao took the phone from Luo Beishi, his brows furrowing slightly, a smile playing on his lips. "Wife, are you getting revenge for me?"
Luo Beishi: "!!!! Tongtong, Huo Cixiao is too smart! He managed to figure this out!"
System: "Otherwise, how could he be the richest man in the country and the head of the Huo Corporation? The probability of something like this happening during the Spring Festival is obviously low."
Luo Beishi sighed, "No wonder he was the former master of the big villain. Not only is he smart, but he's also very talented. He can even watch TV and analyze things for his host. Wow, he's amazing! It's a pity I'm not his biological host, I'm Tongtong a foster host. None of them are close to me, and they don't even give me any money..."
System: "Host, please stop! You're my dear host, sob sob. I really know I was wrong. I shouldn't have lied to you, sob sob. How about this, I'll give you a skill."
Luo Beishi asked in surprise, "What skill? Flash or teleportation?"
System: "Those high-end ones, none of Tongtong. We can Tongtong send you 'permanent, affectionate gazes'."
Luo Beishi: "... Do I look like an idiot to you?"
System: "Like."
Luo Beishi: "..."
"Why aren't you saying anything, honey? Don't be nervous, I'm not angry or blaming you." Huo Cixiao raised his hand and touched his hair.
Upon hearing this, Luo Beishi's wandering gaze returned, and he asked with a bright smile, "Honey, are you happy?"
Huo Cixiao nodded slowly. "I'm happy. I'm happy about anything you've done for me."
Luo Beishi was struck by these unexpected sweet words. He clutched his chest, hating himself for being so spineless. He knew perfectly well that men's words were lies.
But this is Huo Cixiao! Fine, I'll lie to him then, boohoo. "Honey, did you go to tutoring classes? How can you just say things like that?" Luo Beishi's eyes became cautious; she dared not look at him.
"No, I have a lot to say, but I'm afraid you'll find me greasy. After all, too much sweet talk can backfire." Huo Cixiao naturally pulled Luo Beishi into his arms, picked up the remote control, and played a replay of a Spring Festival Gala skit for him.
Luo Beishi was pulled over by Huo Cixiao and sat on Huo Cixiao's lap. Was this how naturally the big boss acted?
It seemed there was nothing wrong with it. Luo Beishi sat upright, not daring to move.
They were afraid of encountering any dangerous objects.
But the big shot is a gentleman, and he can't even figure out the big shot's intentions anymore. Could it be that he really just likes him because he's good-looking and fell in love at first sight?
Luo Beishi's heart was pounding so hard that she couldn't hear what the people on TV were saying.
"Am I uncomfortable holding you? Your heart is beating so fast, honey." Huo Cixiao's face, which was behind Luo Beishi's head, was practically contorted with a wide grin, yet he still asked the question knowing the answer.
Luo Beishi: "No, let's watch TV."
Huo Cixiao: "Hmm."
A Quan: "..." Is this their young master? So pretentious! So smug! I'm so jealous.
Luo Bai's uncle's family, the Liu Family some distance from the city. Luo Bai went to the Liu Family with his mother, and along the way, Luo Bai kept calling 250.
250: "Host, what's wrong?"
Luo Bai: "I've noticed you've become increasingly lazy lately!"
250: "No, host, is there something you need?"
Luo Bai: "Can't you be a little more proactive now! My Affection Points has inexplicably dropped a lot recently. Do they not like me anymore? How can men change their minds so quickly? Because of all the scandals I've been involved in lately, I don't dare to show my face and appease them."
250 comforted him, "Host, take it easy. Don't you have ten or eight fish? As long as you cast a wide net and selectively catch them, you'll eventually have a big harvest."
Luo Bai then remembered that he should send more New Year's greetings to others, so he forwarded a New Year's greeting and sent it to a group.
Half an hour later
The Liu Family's villa was so much worse than the Luo Family's that Luo Bai couldn't help but frown, though he couldn't show his disdain on his face.
After greeting each of his relatives, he saw his uncle Liu Li approaching. Liu Li patted his head kindly and called out to his mother, "Sister, Happy New Year!"
Luo Bai felt there was something strange about the way the two of them were looking at him.
"250, I really find that strange."
250: "Host, don't be afraid. You can send someone to investigate the Liu Family. Maybe there's some kind of conspiracy going on? The sooner you know, the better. Otherwise, why does your mother always run back to her parents' home? Sometimes she even forgets about her own son!"
Look how much your adoptive mother dotes on you, while your biological mother doesn't care about you at all.
Luo Bai pondered for a moment, and it seemed that what 250 said was true. It looked like he needed to find someone to investigate. If there really was something going on...
But he was his father's own son. What could possibly happen between them? He didn't believe it... He didn't believe it.
"Cousin... you're here." Liu Yang's heart skipped a beat when he saw Luo Bai.
Luo Bai nodded. "Yes, happy new year, cousin. Can you show me around? I'm not very familiar with this area."
Liu Yang: "Okay, cousin, shall I take you to the backyard to see the flowers?"
There are plants worth millions that my father planted there; I really want to see Luo Bai's expression in a little while.
