Chapter 1137 - 1179: Lively

Chapter 1137: Chapter 1179: Lively

Ever since entering the villa area, she noticed that although all the houses were independent villas, Huo Junmo’s villa was the largest, occupying the most extensive area! Once inside, it was even more impressive, it was far larger than what she had seen from the outside, let alone being even more luxurious inside.

Especially inside the house, although the decor was very simple, it was clear that the materials used for the decor were the best, and even the casually arranged furnishings in the house were extremely expensive! With so many servants both inside and outside, no ordinary family could afford so many servants.

Since coming in, Ling Shenglan’s perception of Huo Junmo was once again refreshed.

Just as Ling Shenglan was in a daze, Huo Junmo walked over holding Tiantian and Ling Yueyue side by side, while Ling Yueyue held Huo Jiantian’s hand.

"Auntie, please come in and have a seat! Breakfast is already prepared and ready to eat anytime!" Huo Junmo looked at Ling Shenglan with a smile, speaking as he presented Tiantian whom he was holding in front of Ling Shenglan, gently saying, "This is Tiantian, our child!" ℯℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

From the moment Huo Junmo approached, Ling Shenglan’s gaze was continuously drawn to Tiantian in Huo Junmo’s arms. Upon seeing Tiantian’s cute little pink face, she couldn’t help but reach out and take Tiantian from Huo Junmo’s embrace.

Initially, she thought that Tiantian might become shy and cry! Unexpectedly, when Tiantian saw her, he smiled broadly, and his chubby little hand gently and softly touched her face.

As Tiantian touched her, it felt as though a warm stream flowed into her skin from the palm of her hand, warming her entire body, and her eyes involuntarily heated up, turning red without her realizing!

Watching Ling Shenglan’s expression, Ling Yueyue suddenly felt a strange sensation!

For some reason, upon seeing her aunt holding Tiantian, she felt a bit dazed. If she didn’t know that this person was Tiantian’s grandaunt, she would have thought she was Tiantian’s grandmother!

Because even her own parents never showed such emotion when holding Tiantian! Let alone holding Tiantian, they had never even carefully looked at him! Now it seemed like her aunt was Tiantian’s actual grandmother!

At this moment, she began to have new perceptions and views about her aunt! In her heart, she felt a bit more fond of her!

She believed that no mother would dislike an elder who loves their child!

Ling Yueyue didn’t think for long before she quickly regained her senses, pulling Huo Jiantian closer to Ling Shenglan, "Tiantian, quickly call your grandaunt!"

The usually mischievous Huo Jiantian was unexpectedly obedient, smiling sweetly at Ling Shenglan and then calling out, "Grandaunt!"

Upon hearing the term, Ling Shenglan was slightly stunned, looking curiously at Huo Jiantian!

Noticing the confusion in Ling Shenglan’s eyes, Ling Yueyue explained, "Tiantian is Huo Junmo’s child with his ex-wife, already over six years old!"

"Oh! So you’ve been married before? What about your ex-wife? Are you divorced or something?" Upon hearing that Huo Jiantian was Huo Junmo’s child with his ex-wife, Ling Shenglan couldn’t help but feel a sense of disappointment.

Her disappointment wasn’t because she disliked the child, but because Yueyue wasn’t Huo Junmo’s first wife!

It’s known that no matter how many women a man has in his lifetime, or how many wives he marries, his first love and first wife’s status in his heart are irreplaceable!

She could tell that Yueyue really liked Huo Junmo! If Huo Junmo still held his ex-wife in his heart, she feared Yueyue might get hurt.

Before Huo Junmo and Ling Yueyue could answer, Huo Jiantian quickly responded, "My mom died in childbirth when she had me. I’ve always lived with my dad!"

After hearing Huo Jiantian’s words, Ling Shenglan secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, holding Tiantian with one hand and gently touching Huo Jiantian’s head with the other, softly saying, "Oh! So, since you didn’t have your mom around as a child, did you feel lonely?"

Huo Jiantian shook his head, seriously saying, "No, I have Dad to love me! Although Dad is usually busy with work, whenever he has time, he always stays by my side. He has given me all the fatherly and motherly love! Now he’s married to an evil stepmother, so I feel very happy and content!"

"Evil stepmother?" Although Huo Jiantian’s words made Ling Shenglan feel relieved, she still paid attention to the details in the words.

Upon hearing this, Ling Yueyue immediately and instinctively slapped Huo Jiantian’s back-of-the-head, "You little rascal, ruining my reputation everywhere, how am I evil?"

The slap seemed strong, but it was actually very light, not feeling painful at all.

Huo Jiantian covered the back of his head that Ling Yueyue hit, pouting and complaining to Ling Shenglan, "Grandaunt, did you see? Isn’t she both fierce and evil? She often abuses me like this!"

"You little rascal, you’re still saying you want me to hit you, huh?" As she spoke, Ling Yueyue pretended to raise her hand to hit him again.

But before Ling Yueyue’s hand could fall, Huo Jiantian dashed away, running to the sofa, making a face at Ling Yueyue, and triumphantly said, "Hmph! I’m not stupid enough to stand there and let you hit me! You rotten evil stepmother!"

"You little rascal, stop right there, I still don’t believe it, I can’t catch you!" Ling Yueyue, not caring about Ling Shenglan being present, directly went after Huo Jiantian, causing a commotion at home.

Huo Junmo shrugged, helplessly saying, "Auntie, I apologize, they usually like to play and mess around at home like this. You’ll get used to it after a few times!"

Ling Shenglan thoughtfully said, "It’s no problem, it’s a good thing to play and mess around like this, the house won’t feel dead and will be lively! Honestly, I haven’t felt this kind of family liveliness in decades!"

After her parents passed away one after another, she grew up relying on her brother! At first, the siblings lived quite happily! But later, she had to work alone in Jin City, wishing to make money and build a house in the countryside!

Unexpectedly, shortly after arriving in Jin City, she met Yueyue’s father and became pregnant with that man’s child!

Just when she thought they would get married, that man disappeared after knowing she was pregnant, vanishing without a trace and never to be found again!

Later, her brother married a sister-in-law!

The sister-in-law was sharp and mean, and every time she returned home, if she brought money back, she would be greeted with smiles, but if she didn’t, she’d be met with bad faces!

Unfortunately, her current husband is calm and reserved, likes quiet! So, from that time on, she never felt the lively atmosphere of family again!
