Chapter 1076 - 1118: Divorcing Ling Yueyue
"I trust you!" Ling Yueyue’s face was full of smiles. No matter what Huo Junmo said, she would trust him unconditionally! Because she knows he loves her! She was certain before, and after hearing Tiantian’s words today, she was even more certain!
Although she doesn’t know when he started to have feelings for her, as long as he’s fallen in love, that’s enough!
Huo Junmo slowly let go of Ling Yueyue, gently stroked her hair, and said tenderly, "Take an early shower and go to sleep! You are not alone now, you need to sleep early and wake up early. It’s good for your health and for the child in your belly!"
"Okay! I’ll go take a shower first!" Ling Yueyue nodded obediently, like a tame little kitten, and turned into the bathroom.
At the moment the bathroom door closed, the smile on Huo Junmo’s face vanished instantly! After the sound of water began in the bathroom, he took out his phone and walked toward the gazebo in the master bedroom!
By the time Ling Yueyue finished her shower, Huo Junmo had finished his call, sitting on the bed, watching her with smiling eyes.
Ling Yueyue was wrapped in a towel, holding a dry towel in her hand, and while wiping her wet hair, she walked towards Huo Junmo, "I’m finished, it’s your turn to take a shower!"
"Let me dry your hair first before I go to shower!" Saying this, Huo Junmo sat Ling Yueyue down on the bed, while he stood on the ground, skillfully and gently drying the droplets from her hair.
Only after most of Ling Yueyue’s hair was dry did he head to the bathroom for his shower!
That night, Ling Yueyue slept particularly sweetly in Huo Junmo’s embrace! While Huo Junmo lay awake, quietly staring at the ceiling, seemingly deep in thought.
The next day, when Ling Yueyue got up, she left the room and was preparing to go downstairs. When passing by the study door, she suddenly heard the sound of a cup smashing onto the ground from inside!
Ling Yueyue was startled and was about to push the door open to see what happened, but then she heard Xue Rong’s sharp voice from inside, "Huo Junmo, what do you mean by doing this? Don’t forget, we are your parents-in-law, how can you treat us like this? I order you to immediately call off your people, otherwise... otherwise..." Xue Rong did not continue.
Originally intending to check the situation inside, Ling Yueyue retracted her hand upon hearing Xue Rong’s words, and instead pressed her ear to the door, hiding outside to eavesdrop.
After a while, Nan Mingchuan’s voice sounded inside, "Junmo, as the saying goes, a son-in-law is half a son. Although we are not your biological parents, at the very least you have called us mom and dad! Since we are all family, why do things so extremely? You suddenly withdrew all investments from the Nanshang Group; do you know it would face bankruptcy due to liquidity issues? Furthermore, with your withdrawal of funds, many projects at Nanshang Group must halt work. If other groups catch wind of this, they will surely withdraw investments too! Do you really want to see our Nan Family destroyed this way? If not for us, at least consider Sisi! After all, she was married to you and gave birth to Tiantian, such a lovely child. How can you be so heartless to us?"
Compared to Xue Rong’s sharp and righteous tone, Nan Mingchuan’s words carried a thick sense of pleading and helplessness!
After hearing Xue Rong and Nan Mingchuan’s words, Ling Yueyue seemed to understand something!
Although she has never run a major business, nor does she know how a large enterprise operates, one thing she understands is that if someone lacks funds, all procedures would collapse and become impossible to implement!
It seems that Huo Junmo must have done something last night! That would explain why Xue Rong is so angry early in the morning.
As Ling Yueyue pondered, Huo Junmo’s calmly gentle voice came from the study, "Father-in-law, my purpose is simple: I just want you to focus all your energy on the company! Don’t expend too much energy managing my family’s affairs! If you concentrate all your thoughts and energy on the company, I believe Nanshang Group will surely avert disaster and turn crisis into safety!"
The meaning behind Huo Junmo’s words could not be clearer, even Ling Yueyue, eavesdropping outside, could understand the words. How could Xue Rong and Nan Mingchuan, who are usually sly and cunning, not see through them?
No one expected Huo Junmo to treat them and Nanshang Group this way over a woman. Xue Rong furiously said, "What do you mean by this? You’re driving us away, threatening us, aren’t you? If we don’t leave, you don’t plan to reinvest?"
"I’m sorry! I just want my family to return to peace; I merely want my woman to trust that I can protect her, and we three just want a simple, happy life together!" Although Huo Junmo did not respond directly to Xue Rong’s words, it was somewhat an indirect acknowledgment.
"You...! You ungrateful thing, and you don’t even remember that your success today came from fighting and striving together with Sisi! Now that your wings have hardened and Sisi is dead, you actually drive our Nan Family to destruction for a vixen! Has your conscience been eaten by dogs? You don’t even consider, in the last moment before Sisi died, she wanted to give birth to your son! You clearly promised her you would look after us and Jianning! Now for a wild girl from the countryside, you ungrateful, faithless, do you not fear that in midnight dreams Sisi comes seeking you for accountability? You heartless thing, poor Sisi left her homeland for you, and ended up dying in a foreign land, without even a chance for us to say goodbye. You... boo hoo...!" Xue Rong started with a big scold, by the end, she was crying loudly.
Listening to Xue Rong’s cries, Ling Yueyue directly began imagining a shrew cursing in the street, and then sitting on the ground, crying buckets of tears and snot!
Thinking of Xue Rong sitting on the ground, playing rogue, Ling Yueyue couldn’t help but laugh.
At this point, Nan Mingchuan’s displeased voice rang out, "Enough...! Haven’t you caused enough trouble! I told you not to come, yet you insisted on coming! I told you to take Jianning back, but you wouldn’t listen and needed to cause trouble here! Look what you’ve done now, are you satisfied? You’ve lost all the Nan Family’s face! If you don’t get up now and pack your things, we’re going back to Du City!"
Xue Rong refused outright, "I won’t! Why should I go back! If you want me to return unless Huo Junmo divorces Ling Yueyue and marries Jianning, otherwise I’ll stick around here and won’t leave! I want to see if he’s really so heartless, watching Nanshang Group destroyed under his hand! Watching the Nan Family go bankrupt, us ending up on the streets!"
Hearing Xue Rong’s words, Ling Yueyue wrinkled her nose in disgust.
