Spending the Villain’s Money to Extend My Life

Chapter 519 - "I am going to ask you for a painting of little soup dumplings for hanging up in the living room." (2)

Mother Huo, too, nodded when she heard that. “Chuchu, take a break from the work at the company for the next few days. I bought some stuff for the mother and baby, stuff that the baby can use in the first three months. You bring them over to the postnatal care center where she is staying.”

If she had any one else or the chauffeur bring them over, they would most likely be rejected.

Huo ChuChu was obviously the only one that was somewhat welcomed over there.

Huo ChuChu’s heart stiffened a little. “They already had all those prepared. I have already given them money for the newborn. Alright, Mom, just hands off this. I am going to take a break upstairs then head into the office.”

“Aye, you child. Listen to your mother.” Even Old Mrs. Huo chimed in. “You can’t just give them money. They are young and know nothing about caring for a child. Your mom had given birth to three children and has a lot of experiences.”

Huo ChuChu’s face dropped right away, “What experiences? Only one of the three were left.”

Mother Huo’s hand that was holding the tea cup shuddered and even the tea splashed out from it.

Old Mrs. Huo’s eyelid twitched, “… … That’s… … karma!”

Mother Huo’s face turned paler after she had said that.

Huo ChuChu hrumphed, turned, and walked upstairs without looking back again.

Words on the transfer of the Huo’s shares spread quickly.

Everybody snacked on the Huo family’s melon and discussed among themselves who be taking over the Huo’s empire in the future.

In addition to Huo Sishen’s young son, to be fair, Mother Huo also gave 10% shares to Huo ChuChu. All in all, everyone but Huo Wencheng.

Those who had been closed with Huo Wencheng at one point started advising him to return home.

Huo ChuChu never got along with her Second Brother and had always sided with her Big Brother. Now the two of them had 20% shares together. Throwing in those in Mother Huo and Old Mrs. Huo’s hand, it was hard to tell who would be in control in the future.

It had been a mere few days and Huo Wencheng, who had been wavering, finally made up his mind and presented the “temporary divorce” proposition to Gu Wushuang.

Gu Wushuang hated it deep down inside and finally learned how untrustworthy men were.

Unlike Mother Gu, she was not brainless and trusting.

Naturally, she refused to divorce Huo Wencheng.

As much as she had already put a big “X” over the man in her mind, until she found herself a more suitable husband, she did not want to let him go just yet.

She had been working on Huo Wencheng since she was 15 – getting his attention, earning his affection, making him feel protective of her… … It had taken her all these years to finally get what she wanted. How would she be able to throw it all away just like that?

“I know, Brother Cheng, I am dragging you down… …”

She pinched her own thigh and squeezed out a couple drops of tears.

She closed her eyes and passed out.

The tabloid reporters whom she had hired ahead of time were there to capture the moment that she passed out.

The very next day, news of a certain wealthy young master wanting to abandon his childhood lover in order to succeed his family made it onto the most trending list.

Gu Wushuang started to cry the minute that she had woken up. “Brother Cheng, I will clarify this. It’s not like this. I am willing to let out. I’ll tell them that it was my idea for a divorce. It’s not your fault.”

Huo Wencheng’s lips twitched. He swallowed up all of the words that he had.

If he was to get a divorce now, he would only be confirming the articles on the most trending list and proved that he was a scum who would dump a woman for money.

And if he was to get a divorce after Gu Wushuang’s clarification, he would further become the irresponsible scum. Never mind about himself, he worried that many more netizens would want to boycott the Huo family’s products.

By this point, it was exactly like what Mother Gu had said, he seemed to have walked into a huge trap!

Once he had stepped inside, he sank deeper and deeper. By the time he wanted to get out, he was no longer able to!

For the very first time, he broke out into cold sweat when he looked at the pale-looking girl with her eyes lowered in front of him.

Huo Wencheng stood up abruptly and ran outside of the patient room uncontrollably. He gasped at the fresh air outside.

As though it was hell inside that room!
