Flash Marriage with Dr. Huo
Chapter 175 Domineering Protection of Wife on the Eve of Engagement
Just as Huo Chenjun put a spoonful of blueberry soufflé into Tang Xiaqing's mouth, his phone rang.
The call was from Mrs. Huo. Tonight, the housekeeper handed her an exquisite envelope with elegant handwriting written in gold ink.
At first, she didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just a daily matter or a social invitation, but when she opened the invitation and read the contents, her face immediately became serious.
The invitation clearly stated that her son, Huo Chenjun, would hold an engagement ceremony tomorrow. This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Huo's mother, who had never known about this in advance. She had never even met her daughter-in-law.
She realized that her eldest son had never sought her opinion on such an important decision, which made her, as a mother, feel extremely neglected and rejected.
When Huo Chenjun answered the phone, his mother's voice was filled with some uncontrollable displeasure: "Chenjun, what do you mean? Why didn't you tell me in advance about such an important matter? Who is Tang Xiaqing on the invitation?" There was obvious dissatisfaction between the words.
On the other end of the phone, Huo Chenjun had clearly anticipated this, but he also stood firm in his stance, his tone cold and firm: "Mom, I know this is surprising to you, but I think this is my personal choice, and I hope you can respect my own choice. Regarding marriage, I am capable of making my own judgment. I do not accept interference from anyone."
When Tang Xiaqing heard this, she felt a sense of tension and was a little at a loss. She hurriedly wanted to stand up and walk to the side, but Huo Chenjun's other hand tightly hugged her waist, and she couldn't move away at all.
Then, Mother Huo continued to ask: "What kind of girl is your wife? Up to now, I have never even seen her once. I am at the Huo family's old house. Bring her over to let me see her."
Huo Chenjun paused for a moment, as if thinking about something, and then replied, "Okay."
Tang Xiaqing cast a concerned look at Huo Chenjun beside her and asked softly, "Are we going to see Auntie now?"
Huo Chenjun smiled slightly, his deep eyes flashing with determination, as if he could see through all her thoughts. He calmly replied, "No rush, let's enjoy dinner first and then go after that. Now just enjoy the tranquility of this moment."
"Little princess, if my mother is mean to you, would you be afraid?" Huo Chenjun asked.
"Of course I'm not afraid. I'm an expert at quarreling and have never lost since kindergarten." She answered half-jokingly. The confidence and humor in her voice made Huo Chenjun's brows relax instantly.
Only after the meal did the two leave the table and go to the main house to visit Mrs. Huo.
At night, at the entrance of the Huo family's old house, the moonlight was as bright as water and the sky was dotted with stars.
Huo Chenjun and Tang Xiaqing walked into the living room of the villa. The air was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood, and everything seemed solemn and mysterious.
When the future mother-in-law saw Tang Xiaqing, the smile on her face froze instantly, and she seemed to have some resistance to this strange woman.
Her eyes were sharp and cold, and her words were filled with deliberate distance and scrutiny: "Chen Jun, I didn't expect you to choose a woman so much younger than you..." Her words were filled with criticism of the age gap and suspicion of Tang Xiaqing.
A hint of stubbornness flashed across Tang Xiaqing's originally calm face. She slowly raised her head and glanced at Huo Chenjun.
Huo Chenjun pulled Tang Xiaqing and strode towards the sofa area. He unbuttoned his suit and sat down, exuding a powerful aura.
He looked directly at his mother, his eyes filled with both determination and warning: "Mom, Tang Xiaqing is the wife I have chosen. You should learn to respect my choice instead of making groundless accusations." Every word he spoke was sonorous and powerful, fully demonstrating his deep love for his fiancée.
"Does she think she can win your heart with just her youth? Don't forget, the Huo family needs not only beauty, but also a sense of responsibility. She's almost engaged, and now she remembers to tell me. Do you think of me, your elder, as a big shot?"
Huo Chenjun looked at his mother, his tone firm and resolute: "Mom, if you are talking about responsibility and maturity, then please look at yourself first! From childhood to adulthood, my grandparents raised me single-handedly. I hardly saw you during my childhood. My marriage does not need others to judge."
After Huo Chenjun finished speaking, he loosened his tie again and looked at Huo's mother fiercely.
Mother Huo knew she was in the wrong, so she didn't say anything more: "I understand. You should go back and rest early."
Walking out of the villa, the streets are dimly lit at night.
The car stopped downstairs of Tang Xiaqing's house. Huo Chenjun's eyes drifted to Tang Xiaqing in the passenger seat. He asked, "Why didn't you refute my mother before? Didn't you say you were an expert in quarreling?"
Tang Xiaqing raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said, "I just wanted to see if you would protect me." She paused and continued, "Besides, with my ability to argue, I can make her cry in just a few minutes! After all, she's your mother and an elder. It might put you in an awkward position, and I don't want to see you embarrassed."
When Huo Chenjun heard this, the haze in his heart was swept away.
He unbuckled his car seatbelt, kissed her on the forehead, and said with emotion, "Little princess, you are quite thoughtful."
