Chapter 245: Chapter 245: One Month Later
One month later.
A vegetable market in a residential area in Qingcheng City.
Huo Huohuo was holding onto Song Xueqin’s arm, sweetly saying, "Mom, let’s buy a fish. I want to make soup with fish and tofu."
"Sure—" Song Xueqin agreed immediately.
The two of them went to the fish seller’s stall. Song Xueqin had high standards for cooking ingredients; they had to be fresh. While she was crouching to choose a fish, the seller’s eyes kept glancing at Huo Huohuo...
"Hmm! This one doesn’t seem to be your daughter; I remember your daughter isn’t this pretty..."
Being praised for her beauty made Huo Huohuo happy, and she sweetly replied, "Thank you, Auntie, for the compliment. But I truly am my mom’s daughter. The one you’ve seen before must have been my sister. I’m the younger daughter!"
Song Xueqin paused in her fish selecting, thinking this little girl was pretty audacious. After calling her "mom" for a month, now she wanted others to believe they were really mother and daughter?
What’s the real intention behind this?
Could it be that Huo Chen intentionally planted a little spy beside her?
After choosing the fish, they bought some vegetables casually. On their way back, they bumped into someone, and Song Xueqin’s fish dropped. The water splashed onto the two of them—
Huo Huohuo, being quick-tempered, immediately jumped up and down, "Hey! Don’t you watch where you’re walking? Seriously, you’ve made our clothes dirty."
"...I’m sorry, I’m sorry!"
The person apologized repeatedly, "How about I compensate you?"
Song Xueqin picked up the fish and put it back in the plastic bag, "It’s okay, I don’t think you did it on purpose, just go!"
After speaking, she glanced at the person’s appearance and noticed something hanging around their neck.
It looked similar to some kind of ID.
Xu Xueqin’s gaze turned sharp, and she quickly pulled it out for a closer look, "You’re, you’re a journalist..."
"No, no, I’m just..."
"Be honest, if you don’t, I’ll throw this fish at you!"
When Song Xueqin got fierce, she was unmatched, even Huo Huohuo was a bit scared.
Having lived with Ms. Song for almost a month, she finally understood what Song Song meant when she said to be careful not to provoke her.
Her temper was explosive, flaring up instantly.
Her personality was completely opposite to Song Song’s, and they didn’t really look alike...
Maybe, Song Song truly resembled her father more, but not much either!
It felt like a genetic mutation!
The person seemed quite frightened, stammering, "Auntie, I’m an intern journalist. Recently, my boss asked me to follow a story, it’s about... whether your daughter really married President Xiao of the Xiao Group?"
"Please, let me go. I’m just trying to make a living..."
"My daughter?" Song Xueqin’s expression changed, "My daughter married President Xiao of the Xiao Group...?"
"Yeah! This was a big story recently, didn’t you know? Didn’t she tell you... that she married a very wealthy man?"
Huo Huohuo, listening on the side, was also bewildered. When did Song Song get married?
Xiao Group, could it be that little uncle named Xiao Jinghuai? Oh my god! They actually got married!
Song Xueqin’s mind exploded, "Huohuo, call Song Song now and ask if this is true?"
"N-now?"
Huo Huohuo hesitated a bit, "There’s bad signal in the mountains over there, sometimes you can’t get through..."
Oh my god! It feels like something big is going to happen.
Both of them were so shocked by the news that they didn’t notice the slight sinister smile on the little journalist’s timid face—
