Chapter 670: 670、Respect her Choice
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Aren’t you a silly girl?” Whispered Huo Yunting, “Xuxu aside, you were legally my wife. Don’t you think things should be revealed after having been kept in the dark all these years? I want you to be addressed as Mrs. Huo in public for once in our life.” Her grip tightened as he got much closer to her face, “How do you think we should inform the public?”
It was a serious inquiry from the man that left Zhaoyang stunned in silence for the next few seconds. It became a rhetorical question as he answered it himself, “The marriage certificate, perhaps since only that could show *how long* we have been together.”
“Don’t you make the decision by yourself. This involves the both of us. You might be ready but I’m not,” said Zhaoyang as she smashed his chest and pushed him away.
“Okay. Anything you say, dear.” He chose to respect her choice while he actually had to get prepared too.
Get prepared for their marriage and—their second child.
Zhaoyang was bewildered upon his simple reaction contrary to his usual unauthorized violation but recovered in the next moment as she got out of the washroom.
Huo Yunting brandished the abandoned wedding ring a few times in his hand. His eyes squinted.
What genius idea did you give me, Huo Li? D*mmit, why did I think she will accept the ring if I caught her in the toilet?
Meanwhile, both Lu Bai and Yan Se had returned home as Yan Se pushed the young man to the kitchen, “Make me some food.” She fell onto the chair next to the dining table. It only took her a few minutes before she melted into a splash of hunger pain over the table as she shook her head, “When will you bring me food…”
That was when Lu Bai came with a bowl of lotus stem soup with pork ribs, “Well, there you go. Eat more. You have become so much slimmer than before.”
She chuckled, “I might mistake your kindness for something else, you know.”
“You have saved me on many occasions. I have accepted you as a friend. What else can you mistake me as?” Said Lu Bai in puzzlement as he took a bowl of rice for her, “Just to make it clear, I’m single but not available.”
“Tsk!” She rolled her eyes, pouring a few scoops of soup into her bowl, “Your little girlfriend might be married, doesn’t mean you have to give up on other women on Earth!”
“Teach me then.”
“What?” She nearly spat her soup at the out-of-context statement Lu Bai made.
He lifted his eyes and looked at her grimly, “I lacked the experience in combat but I need to avenge Ol’ Jiu. So, please teach me your a.s.sa.s.sination technique.”
“Umm…” Yan Se halted, the chopsticks in between her teeth grinding in hesitation, “I think—you shouldn’t take the risk ever again. Xiang Jinxi had offended my Boss. Therefore he will definitely do something about him. Apart from that, you are in quite a sensitive position now to play with anything.”
I remember Boss saying that Lu Bai will be spared from the military, on the condition of *doing no harm* however. If he did hurt somebody, it might be a different story.
“Master,” said Lu Bai courteously yet with a slightly threatening tone, “If you refuse to teach me, I’ll be dead as I head out to avenge Ol’ Jiu. I am a person who would pursue my beliefs even if it means death to me. So, you know what to do.”
“…”
I know our boy, Lu Bai, is fairly stubborn in almost everything but that was really unexpected of him.
Her eyes went wide.
“Al-alright. Fine, I’ll teach you,” helplessly she nodded as she only wished for Lu Bai’s safety.
He at least needs to know some tricks for self-defence.
“Thank you so much.”
“You’re welcome. Just that, please remember to provide offerings to your master. Master needs great food and drinks,” she said, gasping in satisfaction upon the full table of feast, “Your master only needs that bit of love.”
“Okay.” It was not hard to please his new master.

“Brother Ting! It’s not my fault! You must have done it wrong!” Shouted Huo Li at the end of the corridor as he stared upon Huo Yunting puffing a large column of burning smoke onto his face.
