Chapter 964 - 1007: My Dad Already Has Someone He Loves
Huo Junmo’s deep eyes fixed on Ling Yueyue for a moment, before he calmly said, "I can go with you to the civil affairs bureau to get the certificate anytime. As for the wedding, I’ll have someone arrange it and choose an auspicious date as soon as possible! Since I’m marrying my wife, it naturally has to be grand and let everyone know you’re my wife, Ling Yueyue!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Yueyue asked in disbelief, "Really?"
Huo Junmo raised an eyebrow, smiling, "Of course, when I, Huo Junmo, say something, I mean it!"
"Oh yay, that’s fantastic!" Hearing this, Ling Yueyue jumped up from her chair with joy and excitedly reached out to Huo Junmo, "Give me your phone."
Huo Junmo didn’t say or ask anything, he just picked up the phone lying on the desk and handed it to Ling Yueyue.
Ling Yueyue opened his phone and quickly dialed a string of numbers on it. Shortly after, the phone in her pocket rang.
After it rang once, she hung up and saved her name and phone number in Huo Junmo’s phone.
After everything was done, she handed the phone back to Huo Junmo and said with a smile, "I saved my phone number in your phone, call me anytime if something comes up!"
"Alright!" Huo Junmo took the phone without even glancing at it and placed it back on the desk.
"If there’s nothing else, I’ll be off!" Having achieved today’s goal, Ling Yueyue waved to Huo Junmo and turned to leave.
But just as she reached the door, she heard Huo Junmo’s voice from behind, "Miss Ling!"
Ling Yueyue paused and turned around to look at him, smiling, "We’re about to get married soon, just call me Yueyue! All my friends do!"
"Okay!" Huo Junmo nodded, glanced at his watch, and said warmly, "It’s almost time to get off work anyway, why not come over to my place for dinner?"
"Go to your place for dinner?" Hearing this, Ling Yueyue’s eyes widened in disbelief.
They’d just decided to get married, and now they’re heading to his place already—wasn’t this progressing a bit too fast?
While Ling Yueyue hesitated, Huo Junmo chuckled and added, "If you don’t want to come to my place, we can eat out instead!"
After some thought, Ling Yueyue shook her head vigorously, "No, no, we’re about to get married anyway, sooner or later I’ll have to come over! Let’s go to your place!"
She wasn’t the kind to beat around the bush. She was already carrying his child, and they were about to get married, so it would be overly pretentious to mind such things!
Besides, that home would soon be her own.
"Alright! Let’s go!" Huo Junmo nodded. After putting the phone into his pocket, he left the CEO’s office with Ling Yueyue.
The two arrived at the underground parking lot together, where Huo Junmo led Ling Yueyue to a black Maybach, and gentlemanly opened the passenger seat door for her, signaling her to get in.
"Thank you!" Ling Yueyue thanked him, bending down to get in.
Once Ling Yueyue was seated, Huo Junmo walked around the front of the car and got into the driver’s seat.
Soon, the Maybach drove out of the underground parking lot. As Huo Junmo kept an eye on the road ahead, he asked Ling Yueyue sitting beside him, "You don’t mind if I pick up my son from school, do you?"
"I don’t mind!" Ling Yueyue was aware of Huo Junmo having a son.
Though, she had only recently found out! She had heard plenty about the famous Jin City Five Young Masters before, and knew a good amount of gossip about them, but it was all just tabloid news without any solid facts.
Only after she found out she was pregnant did she Google Huo Junmo.
That was when she found out Huo Junmo had a five-year-old son, and that his wife had died in a car accident five years ago!
However, she didn’t mind that Huo Junmo had a child at all! Anyway, she always liked children, and children liked her too. She could treat Huo Junmo’s son as if he were her own.
After getting Ling Yueyue’s approval, Huo Junmo called the driver who usually picked up and dropped off Huo Jiantian from school.
After Huo Junmo ended the call, they happened to pass by a home store. Ling Yueyue quickly asked him to stop, "I’ll be right back, wait here for me, it won’t take long!" Without waiting for Huo Junmo to respond, she opened the car door and got out.
Not long after, Ling Yueyue returned! This time, when she got in the car, she was holding a large bag.
Huo Junmo started the Maybach and asked while driving, "What’s that?"
Ling Yueyue hugged the gift in her arms and proudly said, "A gift! It’s the first time meeting your son, I absolutely have to bring a present! Otherwise, it’d be too rude! I know you’re wealthy, and your son doesn’t lack anything, but this is my heartfelt gesture! It’s the thought that counts!"
Huo Junmo glanced at her, then at the gift she was holding, and said nothing. Unknowingly, the corners of his mouth lifted into a slight smile.
Because the Huo Tian Group was located in the center of Jin City, not far from his son’s school, it took less than twenty minutes to arrive at Huo Jiantian’s kindergarten entrance.
When the Maybach stopped at the kindergarten gate, Huo Jiantian immediately recognized it as his father’s car. He quickly ran over, but when he opened the passenger door to get in, he was surprised to find a woman he didn’t recognize sitting there.
Looking at Ling Yueyue, Huo Jiantian frowned and unhappily asked, "Who are you? Why are you in my dad’s car?"
"You must be Huo Jiantian! Hello, I’m your dad’s soon-to-be wife! It’s our first meeting, and I brought you a gift, hope you like it!" Saying this, Ling Yueyue eagerly handed the bag she was holding to Huo Jiantian.
Huo Jiantian frowned, disdainfully glanced at the bag Ling Yueyue handed over, pursed his little mouth, and disdainfully said, "I don’t think I want your gift! Let me tell you, my dad already has someone he likes, so you better back off! Now, get out of the car, this spot is mine, I want to sit next to my dad!"
Seeing Huo Jiantian’s blunt attitude, the smile on Ling Yueyue’s face slightly stiffened. Thinking of the decades she’d be living with him under the same roof, she stifled the rising anger and forced a smile, patiently coaxing, "Tiantian, I know this gift might seem simple to you, but it’s from the heart. I hope you’ll accept it!"
