Chapter 466 Our Secret
Huo Chenzhou's furious voice came from behind.
Why does Mrs. Huo say such things? She doesn't give him any face at all.
He glanced at Shen Zhixia cautiously, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that there was no contempt on her face. Sure enough, his wife still loved him the most and didn't care about the past at all.
In fact, Shen Zhixia was already used to it. When Huo's mother chatted with her, she would often talk about Huo Chenzhou's childhood, so she had become immune to it.
The two babies were wrinkled at first, but now they've grown out and their faces are fair and tender, which is quite funny.
Da Bao looked at the two children and was delighted again: "They are still very cute when they are not crying."
Both babies have a tendency to cry a lot, but when they're not crying, they are indeed very beautiful babies.
The Huo family's genes are indeed quite good; none of their children are ugly.
However, after staring at the two children for a while, Sun Baojun glanced at Huo Chunyan and frowned: "Strange, why don't these children look like me at all?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Chunyan angrily said, "Sun Baojun, what nonsense are you spouting again? I think you're trying to stir up trouble again?"
"No, no, that's not what I meant. I just meant that this child doesn't look like me, nor does he look like you."
Mrs. Huo took the child and said, "I think this child looks a lot like both of you. What kind of eyes do you have?"
“When I visited the ward before, everyone said the child looked like you.”
Sun Baojun was speechless: "The two children were all wrinkled back then, and they said they looked like me. I think no matter who the children look like, they would say the same thing. That's just polite talk."
That's the truth.
That was just polite talk.
All babies look the same, all soft and chubby. Before, Shen Zhixia only thought the baby was cute and didn't observe him carefully. Now she's finally taking a closer look at the baby.
The observation was still based on Huo Chunyan and Sun Baojun.
Upon closer inspection, she realized that the child really didn't resemble them at all.
Yet these two children somehow gave off a familiar feeling.
She couldn't immediately recall why it felt so familiar.
Huo Chunyan said, "It's strange. I feel like I've seen these two children somewhere before, but suddenly my mind goes blank and I can't remember."
Mrs. Huo slapped her forehead: "I remember now."
Everyone remembered, and they all stared at Huo Chenzhou.
Huo Chenzhou: "?"
Everyone was watching what he was doing.
Da Bao glanced at Huo Chenzhou, then at the children, and said, "Dad, Da Shuang and Xiao Shuang look exactly like you."
Huo Chenzhou: "..."
He said unhappily, "How is it similar? I don't think it is."
Mother Huo said, "You looked just like this when you were little. You look a lot like Da Shuang and Xiao Shuang."
Huo Chenzhou: "..."
Shen Zhixia said thoughtfully, "If you had two children yourself, they probably wouldn't look this similar."
Huo Chenzhou said, "They might not look like me anymore when they grow up. Da Bao and Xiao Bao have also grown up and don't look like me anymore."
You know, when Da Bao and Xiao Bao were little, they were just like Huo Chenzhou, but when they grew up, they turned out to be just like Shen Zhixia.
Da Bao was unhappy: "We clearly look alike, it's just that we look more like Mom."
Xiao Bao nodded: "You can't say we don't look like you at all just because we look like Mom. We still have similarities."
Huo Chenzhou suddenly perked up: "My wife and I look alike, don't we? That's what you call a couple looking alike."
Da Bao shook his head: "No, you and Mom don't look alike at all."
Xiao Bao: "Not only do they not look alike, they have absolutely no resemblance whatsoever."
"We just look alike in some way."
Huo Chenzhou: "...Alright, you don't need to say anything more."
As these two children grew up, their speech became less and less endearing.
During Huo Chunyan's postpartum period, Huo Chenzhou and their two children went to visit her almost every day.
But Huo Chenzhou didn't go that day. He returned after a long time, still cautiously, as if he were hiding something on his back.
Just as he was about to go to the storeroom.
Suddenly, the light came on, illuminating him brightly.
Da Bao stood in front of him, asking curiously, "Dad, what are you doing?"
Xiao Bao asked, "Dad, what are you hiding behind your back?"
Huo Chenzhou coughed and said sternly, "It's so late, why aren't you all sleeping? What are you doing here? Hurry up and come back."
Da Bao said, "It's not too late now, it's not even dark yet."
Xiao Bao stared at him and said, "Dad, you have a secret. I'm going to tell Mom."
Huo Chenzhou quickly covered their mouths: "I have no secrets, don't talk nonsense."
Something suddenly fell out from behind him.
Da Bao recognized it: "This is the latest fishing rod. I heard it's very expensive. Dad, how did you get this? Did you take a bribe?"
Huo Chenzhou said speechlessly, "You even know this thing is expensive?"
"Yes, Xiao Chao's dad bought this kind of fishing rod, so I remember it."
Huo Chenzhou was truly at a loss for words this time. All he could say was, "Don't tell your mother."
Da Bao was confused: "Dad was just fishing, why did he have to hide it from Mom?"
Xiao Bao said, "Because it's very expensive, we have to keep it a secret. He's afraid his mother will be angry."
"But I don't think Mom will be angry."
"But I'm not afraid of anything, I'm afraid of ten thousand."
Huo Chenzhou found it incredibly annoying to hear the two children putting on this act, so he started to shoo them away: "Alright, go play somewhere else and don't worry about this."
The two children didn't leave, and the older one stared at him intently: "Dad, you don't want Mom to find out about this, do you?"
Huo Chenzhou retorted, "Just like you said, I only bought a fishing rod. Even if Mom finds out, she might not blame me. What do I have to worry about?"
"No, I've got it."
Da Bao said, "Dad doesn't have any money at all. Where did he get the money to buy a fishing rod? You must have saved up some money on the side, afraid that Mom would find out."
Huo Chenzhou: "..."
Their eyes met in mid-air.
They stared at each other, wide-eyed.
In the end, Huo Chenzhou was defeated. He asked helplessly, "What exactly do you want to do?"
Huo Chenzhou had no money.
Not a single penny.
His income was transferred to Shen Zhixia on time, all of it.
He doesn't usually need money; his food, clothing, housing, and transportation are all taken care of perfectly, so he doesn't need to worry about anything.
Sometimes when he had to go on business trips, Shen Zhixia would give him some money, so he really didn't have a single penny on him. But even though he had no money, he was able to come up with so much money to buy a fishing rod.
Just then, Xiao Bao stepped in. He rummaged under the pillow in the storage room and found ten yuan inside.
"Dad, you really did hide some money."
Huo Chenzhou quickly stepped forward and covered his mouth: "Keep your voices down."
The two children looked at him.
Finally, Da Bao said, "You can tell us to shut up, but we also want to split it in half when we meet."
Huo Chenzhou said, "I only have ten yuan here, do you want it too?"
This was all the money he had saved up over a long period of time, and then it was robbed.
Yes, I want it.
Huo Chenzhou said, "You're all so young, where would you find a place to spend money?"
Da Bao said solemnly, "There are just too many places to spend money. Recently, Xiao Chao and Xiao Yang both gave me chocolates. After I accepted them, I should give them something back, right? It's not good to always take their things. It makes me look like a gold digger."
Huo Chenzhou was truly speechless this time: "Didn't I tell you to break up with them? You still haven't?"
Da Bao was puzzled: "We're all friends."
In the end, we still gave them the money.
Huo Chenzhou solemnly reminded them, "This is our secret, don't tell Mom."
