Chapter 977: Chapter 1020: I Look Down on You

Huo Junmo nodded, "Yeah! Except when it’s snowing or raining, I always go for a morning run!"

Ling Yueyue nodded, squinting her eyes with a smile, "That’s a good habit! Go shower! Tiantian and I will wait for you to come down for breakfast!"

Huo Jiantian glanced disdainfully at Ling Yueyue, "Bootlicker!"

"You little brat, what did you say? Do you need a beating?" As she spoke, she didn’t forget to swing her fist at Huo Jiantian, putting on a fierce look.

"Hmph, all you know is to bully those weaker than you, picking on a poor little kid like me who doesn’t have a mom!" Huo Jiantian snorted coldly, plopped down on the sofa, crossed his arms and puffed his cheeks, looking like a grievance-filled woman who dares not express her anger.

Ever since meeting Ling Yueyue, this action had almost become his signature move, as if it was the only way to express his strong discontent towards Ling Yueyue.

As they bickered, Huo Junmo simply glanced at them briefly and turned around to go upstairs!

After showering and changing clothes, he came downstairs to find Ling Yueyue and Huo Jiantian sitting on opposite ends of the sofa; Huo Jiantian was still holding his previous pose, while Ling Yueyue kept changing channels with the remote, looking for her preferred shows.

"Let’s eat!" Huo Junmo glanced at them and walked into the dining room ahead.

"Time to eat!" Ling Yueyue squinted with a smile, turned off the TV, and excitedly ran to the bathroom to wash her hands, then sat down at the dining table.

Seeing Ling Yueyue treating the place completely as her home, Huo Jiantian snorted heavily through his nose, sulking, "I’m not hungry, I’m not eating!"

Actually, he wanted to protest in this way, hoping his dad wouldn’t marry this fierce woman Ling Yueyue! He didn’t really intend not to eat!

However, Huo Junmo didn’t react at all to his words, not even lifting an eyebrow, and began eating slowly.

Ling Yueyue understood his little scheme well, and seeing that Huo Junmo ignored him, threw a triumphant glance at him, then enjoyed breakfast with Huo Junmo!

While eating, she intentionally made loud noises to provoke Huo Jiantian.

"...!" Already hungry and now listening to Ling Yueyue eat noisily, his stomach unwillingly started growling!

Huo Jiantian couldn’t help but swallow his saliva, touching his growling belly with his hand!

"Tiantian, hurry up and eat! Food is essential, skipping a meal will make you starve, and right now you’re in your growing years. Not eating properly will stunt your growth! Be careful that when you grow up, people will call you a little shorty!" Knowing Huo Jiantian was hungry and wanted to eat but too prideful to admit it, Ling Yueyue opened her mouth first, giving him an excuse to eat.

Unexpectedly, Huo Jiantian didn’t appreciate it but instead retorted, "Are you talking about yourself?"

"...!" Stung by Huo Jiantian’s words, Ling Yueyue immediately got angry again, "How am I short?"

Huo Jiantian disdainfully looked her up and down, saying without mercy, "Not short? You’re a little shorty! Look, you’re a head shorter than my dad!"

Ling Yueyue angrily responded, "Hey, don’t use men’s standards to judge women! I am a head shorter than your dad, but he’s a man and I’m a woman! At 1.65 meters tall, I’m of standard height among women! Go find any random woman on the street, see if anyone is taller than me!"

She was fretting inside!

This was the first time someone said she was short!

Although not model height, her stature was definitely not considered short! 1.65 meters! Many actors don’t even reach her height! Today, she was actually disliked by a little brat!

Seeing Ling Yueyue provoked by him, Huo Jiantian’s mood suddenly lifted, feeling energized, he unreservedly retorted, "All those women throwing themselves at my dad, which one isn’t taller than you, prettier than you! They’re all fair-skinned, beautiful, long-legged beauties! Look at yourself, no face, no height, no figure, yet you had the audacity to marry my dad! What makes you think you deserve my dad?"

"...!" Ruthlessly mocked by Huo Jiantian, Ling Yueyue’s face turned red and white, "You think having a good figure and pretty face is all that matters? A wife should be virtuous! I’m very virtuous!"

Once these words escaped, Ling Yueyue felt she was being somewhat brazen!

Huo Jiantian confidently said, "Nowadays, society prizes appearances! As for virtuosity, who knows if you don’t say? Even if you say it, who would believe it! If you were truly virtuous, you wouldn’t have spanked me so hard yesterday!"

"...!" For the first time, Ling Yueyue finally understood what it meant to be sharp-tongued and witty! It was the first time someone managed to talk her into silence, unable to counter! And her opponent was nothing more than a five-year-old brat.

Initially, her appetite was good, but now it suddenly vanished!

As Ling Yueyue lost her appetite, Huo Jiantian instantly felt hungry! Excited, he washed his hands and sat at the dining table, happily eating.

Ling Yueyue bit her lip, angrily glaring at Huo Jiantian!

Huo Junmo glanced at Ling Yueyue, with a hint of amusement in his eyes, extended his chopsticks to place a dish in Ling Yueyue’s bowl, gently saying, "Eat up! Don’t take Tiantian’s words to heart! He judges by looks, I don’t! I see the heart!"

Huo Junmo’s words not only failed to comfort Ling Yueyue but made her more irritated, "What’s that supposed to mean? Are you saying I look that bad? Not even a bit of attractiveness?"

"...!" Huo Junmo was taken aback, then chuckled, "No! That’s not what I meant, I meant you have both looks and heart! Those others are just common and unremarkable, you don’t need to compare yourself and lower your worth!"

Ling Yueyue didn’t expect Huo Junmo to try comforting her, her eyes brightened as she disbelievingly asked, "Really?"

Huo Junmo raised his eyebrows, smiling, "Of course! I never lie!"

Upon hearing this, Ling Yueyue immediately beamed with joy, "Haha! I like hearing the truth! You’re way more honest than your son!"

Huo Jiantian: "...!"

Huo Junmo: "...!"

"Eat up, eat up!" Sweet-talked by Huo Junmo, Ling Yueyue’s mood instantly improved! Picking up her chopsticks, she resumed eating.

Huo Jiantian looked at his father, curled his lips disdainfully, and scorned, "Dad, when did you become so fake! Spouting such phony words? I despise you, I look down on you!"
