Chapter 690 I'm Pregnant
The atmosphere at the Huo family's dinner table seemed calm, but in fact, there were undercurrents.
Huo Dongcheng sat at one end of the dining table with a stern expression. He occasionally picked up a few bites of food with his chopsticks, but never spoke a word.
His eyes swept over Xue Jun, with a bit of scrutiny and coldness in them.
When their eyes met, Xue Jun smiled at him generously, lowered his head and continued to talk to Huo Junshan, his tone gentle and seemed particularly intimate.
"Hubby, the auntie at home is very good at cooking. I like it very much."
"As long as you like it, ask her to make you whatever you want to eat."
As he spoke, Huo Junshan added some dishes to Xue Jun's bowl.
"Thank you, husband."
Lin Yinuan sat opposite, feeling so suffocated that she almost exploded.
She looked at Xue Jun's pretending to be gentle, and felt sick in her heart. The chopsticks in her hand were almost broken by her.
Afraid that her expression would reveal something strange, Lin Yinuan suppressed her anger and lowered her head to eat the food in the bowl, but she had no taste for it.
Huo Donglin sat next to Lin Yinuan, with his head lowered, eating his meal silently, occasionally looking up at Xue Jun, his eyes full of hostility.
Lin Jiamin sat next to him, patted his shoulder gently, and signaled him not to say anything more.
She took the initiative to use the serving chopsticks to pick up a piece of lotus root for Xue Jun, "Sister, try this, it's Auntie's specialty."
"Thank you, sister." Xue Jun smiled, picked up the lotus root and took a bite, saying, "It tastes really good."
Huo Junshan seemed oblivious to the undercurrent at the table and spoke gently, "Xiaojun, eat more. You're two people now, and you need to get enough nutrition."
Xue Jun smiled slightly and said softly: "Thank you, husband. You should eat more too."
Hiccup!!!
Lin Yinuan closed her eyes, wishing she could pierce her ears!
After dinner, everyone in the Huo family dispersed.
Lin Jiamin looked at Huo Dongcheng and asked, "Dongcheng, it's so late, don't go back, rest here."
Huo Dongcheng's room in the Huo family's old house is still preserved.
He thought about it and nodded, "Okay."
The night in the Huo residence was exceptionally quiet, with only the occasional sound of footsteps coming from the corridor.
Huo Junshan accompanied Xue Jun for a walk in the garden.
The night breeze was cool, and the moonlight shining on the two of them seemed particularly soft.
Xue Jun held Huo Junshan's arm with a faint smile on his face, and occasionally whispered a few words, which made Huo Junshan nod frequently.
At the second-floor window, Huo Dongcheng stood quietly, looking at the two figures cuddling together with a gloomy gaze.
Xue Jun keenly felt a burning gaze falling on her. She couldn't help but look back and looked around, but saw nothing.
"What's wrong?" Huo Junshan also followed her gaze and looked towards the villa.
"Nothing," Xue Jun smiled. "I thought I heard Donglin calling you just now. Shall we go back?"
"All right."
The two walked slowly back to the villa.
Huo Junshan went to check on Huo Donglin's room, while Xue Jun returned to his own room.
The two parted at the stairs.
In the bedroom, Huo Donglin was doing his homework seriously.
Seeing Huo Junshan come in, he immediately picked up his homework book, pointed at a few questions on it, looked up and asked, "Dad, I don't know how to do these questions. Can you teach me?"
Huo Junshan walked up to him and looked down at the question.
Huo Donglin was born later in the year and was weak, so he started school only a short time ago and is now in the second grade of elementary school.
Considering Huo Junshan’s current age, these questions couldn’t be simpler.
If he remembered correctly, he almost always got full marks in math when he was in Dongcheng Primary School.
Seeing that Donglin couldn't even answer such a simple question, Huo Junshan felt a little disappointed.
The second son is in poor health and is mediocre in his studies.
But he thought about it and felt relieved that maybe due to health reasons, Donglin didn't put as much energy into studying.
Huo Junshan explained patiently.
After Huo Junshan finished speaking, Huo Donglin immediately showed an expression of sudden enlightenment and thanked him with a smile: "Thank you, Dad, I understand!"
He had actually learned these questions a long time ago.
But his mother told him that this would improve his relationship with his father.
Huo Junshan understood immediately after seeing him, patted his head with satisfaction, and said in a gentle tone: "Donglin, if you have any questions in the future, feel free to ask me."
Huo Donglin nodded obediently.
At the same time, Xue Jun returned to his room. Just as he closed the door and had no time to turn on the light, he was suddenly pushed against the wall by someone.
She was startled and was about to scream, but a big hand covered her mouth.
With a "click", the door was locked.
Then, the chandelier was turned on, and soft light instantly filled the entire room.
Xue Jun squinted his eyes and after adjusting to the light, he could see the person in front of him clearly - Huo Dongcheng.
He stood before her, his tall figure looming over her, his gaze cold and sharp, "What? After more than a month, Miss Xue doesn't recognize me?"
"Of course I recognize him," Xue Jun pulled his hand away, his face remaining calm as he asked softly, "Mr. Huo, it's so late, is there anything wrong?"
Huo Dongcheng smiled.
He narrowed his eyes, with a scrutinizing look in his eyes, and stared at Xue Jun for a long time.
Xue Jun felt uneasy when he was stared at.
She lowered her eyes, put her hand on his shoulder, and whispered, "You are blaming me for not coming back with you, but going back to Beijing to find your father alone, right?"
Huo Dongcheng was silent.
But Xue Jun knew that this was what he was uncomfortable with.
Men are all the same.
Even Huo Dongcheng could not escape worldly thoughts.
He could accept that after they slept together, Xue Jun didn't care about him at all, and he could also accept that after he invited her, Xue Jun refused to go with him.
He could even accept that Xue Jun would find an ordinary man to live with after leaving him.
But he couldn't accept that Xue Jun came to his father after rejecting him!
Since it's all about money, why would she choose his dad instead of him?
How is he inferior to Huo Junshan?
Seeing that Huo Dongcheng didn't say anything, Xue Jun lowered his head and pinched the corner of his clothes to play with it.
When she spoke again, her voice trembled a little, "Actually, I came here to see you."
Xue Jun raised his head, his eyes red. "I came to look for you... I didn't know your number or where you lived, so I could only wait downstairs at your company... But... the chairman's people saw me..."
The temporary mobile phone she gave him in H City was shut down after the phone card was in arrears.
Huo Dongcheng looked at Xue Jun's wet eyes, which looked like a frightened deer, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, and his heart was slightly shocked.
Her voice trembled a little, as if she had really suffered a great injustice.
His chest heaved as he looked at her, "Really?"
Xue Jun took a deep breath, pushed him away angrily, and walked a few steps inside. "If you don't believe it, forget it."
"I believe it."
Huo Dongcheng came up from behind, took her hand, and sat down on the small sofa. "Why did you come to see me suddenly?"
Xue Jun looked up at him, then lowered her head and whispered, "I...I'm pregnant."
