Chapter 44: I’m Hen-pecked

Book:My Awesome CEO Dad Published:2024-5-1

Bai Qingqing looked at these little girls who were dressed extravagantly, and were overweening because of their youth. She smiled coldly and pushed them away domineeringly, walking towards where Huo Yunchen came. Huo Yunchen was stopped by the little girl, “Uncle, you are so handsome, can I add your WeChat?” Huo Yunchen looked down at the girl who had not yet developed fully, smiled disdainfully, and said in a low voice: “Uncle is hen-pecked. ”
Tiantian opened his hands and ran into Huo Yunchen’s arms, shouting loudly on purpose: “Daddy, Daddy.” These little girls were so shocked that their chins almost fell off, looking ashamed and jealous. “Husband, don’t randomly add others’ WeChat. Be careful that the goblin eats you.” “With a wife to protect me, goblins can’t get close to me.”
Huo Yunchen held Tiantian with one hand and freed one hand to hold his wife’s hand. The family of three left, leaving everyone in admiration. Before leaving, Tiantian hadn’t forgotten to make faces at the sisters who bullied Mommy. Huo Yunchen enjoyed secretly in his heart. Just now this woman called him husband, which sounded very pleasant.
When they got on the car, Huo Yunchen told her that grandfather and grandmother invited them to eat dinner and meet formally today. “Huo Yunchen, why are you telling me now?” “Call husband.” “Huo Yunchen, you should tell me earlier, so I have time to prepare.” “You don’t need to prepare, take yourself, take Tiantian, and just follow me.”
Huo Yunchen had been emphasizing this issue all the way. Bai Qingqing was really mad. It was casting pearls before swine. Did he want her to go empty-handed for the first time? This was so impolite, and could the elderly have a good impression of her? Such a fool didn’t understand etiquette. Seeing that Bai Qingqing was still angry, Huo Yunchen shifted the topic to Tiantian.
“Tiantian, the last time you have seen your grandma and grandpa, they like you very much. Tonight, you are in charge of making grandma and grandma happy.” “Don’t worry, daddy, mommy, I’m the pistachio for grandpa and grandma.” Tiantian made a victory sign. His big eyes flickered, which made people unable to feel angry.
When they arrived, grandpa and grandma hadn’t arrived yet. Huo Yunchen ordered the dishes, but Bai Qingqing was inexplicably nervous. It felt like the ugly daughter-in-law was going to see parents-in-law. Huo Yunchen reached out and gently shook her hand, smiling slightly. “Don’t be nervous, I’m here.” With his warm words, her nervousness calmed down a little.
The door was pushed open, and the grandfather walked ahead and the grandmother followed. Tiantian immediately jumped off the stool and ran towards the grandfather, shouting loudly: “Grandpa, grandma.” “Ah, my dear grandson, last time I said you were one of our family, see how accurate grandpa is.” “Yes. Grandpa, you have sharp eyes.”
Tiantian was picked up by grandpa and he gently touched grandpa’s beard. Grandma was very happy. She reached out to hug Tiantian and kissed him several times. Bai Qingqing walked over carefully, and respectfully called: “Hello, grandpa, grandma.” Maybe her voice was so low that grandpa and grandma didn’t hear it.
She called again, but grandpa and grandma still did not give her any response, just playing with Tiantian. She also moved the stools to them and asked them to sit down. But they seemed to avoid the stools she pulled deliberately and chose the stools pulled by the waiter. She was a little lost. It was already obvious that they didn’t like her.
Huo Yunchen frowned, seeing everything in the eyes. He stood up behind her, holding her hand and shouting: “Tiantian, go back to your seat, we are going to have dinner.” Tiantian was very obedient, coming down from the grandfather’s lap and not forgetting to kiss grandpa and grandma. The two old men were overjoyed with the great-grandson, but deliberately avoided making eye contact with Bai Qingqing.
“Grandpa, grandma, this is what I told you. My wife Bai Qingqing, my son Bai Tiantian, who should be called Huo Tiantian now. Our family is very happy. So, grandma, you don’t have to worry about me anymore.” Huo Yunchen’s tone was calm, but his face was cold and harsh.
The grandmother glanced at Bai Qingqing, and the amiable face suddenly became ugly. She was about to say something, but was stopped by grandfather. Grandpa greeted Bai with a smile on his face. “Yunchen, marriage is a big event. How can you be so hasty? So don’t blame your grandma for being angry.”
“Grandma, I’m sorry, I didn’t think it carefully. Let’s eat.” Huo Yunchen personally held the soup to Grandma for an apology, hoping to make her feel comfortable. “Wait a minute, there are still people who haven’t arrived.” All dishes were served. When everyone wanted to move chopsticks, the old lady suddenly refused to let them move.
Huo Yunchen wondered, today was a family feast, who did not come? Then, the door was just pushed open, and Shen Siyu came in, who was dressed in a dignified and graceful manner. “I’m sorry, I’m late.” “Xiaoyu, come, come and sit here with grandma.” The old lady was particularly warm and intimate with Shen Siyu, and she had been holding her hand while eating.
Bai Qingqing finally understood why she was getting together with Bai Feifei. Today, the old couple who suddenly asked her to design a wedding dress should be grandfather and grandmother, and Shen Siyu deliberately let Bai Feifei make trouble. This was to let grandparents misunderstand her character and temperament
After all these efforts, she wanted to grab her husband. Thinking of these, Bai Qingqing felt relieved. Knowing her purpose made things easier. Bai Qingqing did not take the initiative to say hello to her, but Shen Siyu intentionally wanted to be close to her.
“Brother Yunchen, Sister Qingqing, no, not right. Should I call you sister-in-law now? It’s really nice to see your happiness. That happened five years ago. My brother broke off your marriage due to the pressure of public opinions. I am really worried about you. But now Yunchen is taking care of you, and I am relieved.” Her voice was warm and soft, and her smile was gentle and sincere.
Every word and phrase sounded like she cared about her and blessed her, but Bai Qingqing was not a fool. How could she not know that she was deliberately exposing her shortcomings in front of grandparents. “Yo, she still had a time with your brother? Tell grandmother why your brother wanted to break off marriage?”
The grandmother took a sip of soup and glared fiercely at Bai Qingqing while talking. Huo Yunchen’s soup spoon was thrown heavily in the soup bowl, and hot soup splashed into his hand. The greasy soup made him feel irritable. He wiped his hands desperately with paper towels, and the cold and dull face was daunting.
