Rebirth of a Spoiled Darling: Bloodstained Lord Huo's Billion-Dollar Dowry Proposal

He Minghua glanced away slightly, then smiled charmingly.

“Husband, I was just praying for you and Yuxuan. Otherwise, who would want to suffer in the temple?”

Meng Wood snorted, a hint of suspicion flashing in his eyes, "Why can't I get through on the phone?"

“Honey, you can’t look at your phone while praying. How could I dare to turn it on and disrespect Buddha? You know that, right?”

After hearing her explanation, Meng Wood's expression softened considerably.

Meng Shu rested her chin on her hand, looking on with curiosity.

"Second Aunt, I wonder which temple you went to. I would like to go and pray for blessings as well."

May the Bodhisattva bless the Meng family with peace, prosperity, and abundant wealth.

A flicker of doubt flashed across He Minghua's eyes, but seeing Meng Shu's sincere expression, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She then covered her mouth and laughed, "You're still a child, why should you worry about this? Just focus on your studies."

Meng Wude, who was standing to the side, became increasingly satisfied with Meng Shu.

Meng Shu smiled but remained silent.

That being said, He Minghua did go to the temple and did indeed pray for blessings.

However, he spends most of his time praying in his bed at the temple.

Unfortunately, in the photos Huo Qi took, all the men were wearing sunglasses.

These people are so cautious; they must be someone of unusual status.

No rush, she was confident that she could soon uncover the true identities of these people.

Let He Minghua run wild for a few more days, then give her a heavy blow.

On the other hand, she had to admit that He Minghua was quite capable.

The fact that she had an affair was kept secret from Meng Wood for over twenty years.

It's not just about being cuckolded.

She eagerly awaited the day when Menwood would learn the whole truth.

Meng Shu took a sip of the soup, and the soup, which was originally not to her liking, became much sweeter.

At this moment, He Minghua frowned, "Where is Yuxuan? It's so late, why isn't she here?"

Thinking of the foolish and spoiled Meng Yuxuan, Meng Wude became angry. "You still know how to care about Yuxuan?"

He Minghua gave an awkward smile, then said, "What do you mean, husband? Yuxuan is my precious daughter. If I don't care about her, who else should I care about?"

As she spoke, she glanced at Meng Shu with disdain, "You can't possibly care about an outsider, can you?"

Just as Meng Wood was about to speak, Meng Yuxuan called.

The gist of it is that she was with Zhou Piaopiao and her group and would be going home later.

When He Minghua heard that Meng Yuxuan had gotten together with Zhou Piaopiao, her eyes widened in astonishment.

She glanced at Meng Shu smugly and said in a drawn-out voice, "This society is very realistic. It's not enough to just be good at studying; you also need to know how to make friends."

Meng Shu smiled and said, "Second Aunt is right."

Unexpectedly, Meng Wude said, "Stop being sarcastic. I think Meng Shu is very good."

He Minghua froze.

How could my husband's attitude towards Meng Shu have changed so drastically in just a few days?

What kind of bewitching potion did that little bitch Meng Shu give him?!

At this moment, Meng Wood's voice rang out again, "Also, you should stay home and behave yourself. Think carefully about what you shouldn't ask or do."

The two broke up unhappy.

A long time passed, and then it was the next day.

Unexpectedly, Meng Yuxuan did not return home all night.

However, it was common for Meng Yuxuan to stay out all night, so they didn't take it to heart.

It wasn't until two days later that they realized their mistake.

Of course, this is a story.

-

the next day.

Meng Shu suddenly received a phone call that was both unfamiliar and familiar.

After the call connected, a strong yet kind voice came from the other end, "Ah Shu, what have you been busy with lately?"

"Grandpa Huo, I've been busy studying lately," Meng Shu said gently, her tone tinged with innocence.

"Good boy, come to the old house more often when you have time and play Go with your grandpa."

"Okay, Grandpa Huo."

Grandpa Huo across from him put down his teacup, his expression becoming more serious. "By the way, Meng Wood came to the old house yesterday."

Upon hearing this, Meng Shu guessed it was about the academy.

After all, she had already hinted quite clearly that day.

Given how adept Menwood is at maneuvering, he will surely try every means to climb up to the Huo family.

"Grandpa Huo, you saw him?"

Old Master Huo snorted coldly, his eyes full of disdain, "Does he deserve it? It was Old Yang who saw him and heard that he brought gifts."

Meng Shu smiled and said, "Is it because you're eager to send the academy to Grandpa Huo?"

Hearing the teasing words from the other side, Grandpa Huo laughed, "A-Shu, remember to come to the old house to pick up the things you brought back when you have time. Grandpa knows that these things are very important to you."

Meng Shu shook her head and refused, "This gift was originally intended as a dowry for the Huo family, Grandpa doesn't need to give it to me."

Meng Shu spoke sincerely, without a trace of falsehood.

After thinking for a moment, Old Master Huo said, "Alright, then I'll leave it to Qilin."

"Okay, Grandpa."

"By the way, Ashu, if you encounter any trouble, you can always ask your grandfather for help. Remember, you are the future matriarch of the Huo family. If anyone dares to mess with me, I will be the first to punish them!"

Meng Shu felt a warm feeling in her heart.

His gaze softened further.

Old Master Huo truly cared for her.

"I know, Grandpa."

"As for Meng Wude, he was also reprimanded by Lao Yang, so he doesn't dare to make things difficult for you openly."

"Thank you, Grandpa Huo."

hang up the phone.

Meng Shu received another message.

Upon seeing the text message, Meng Shu smiled, revealing a touch of girlish innocence.

The text message was sent at the beginning of the week.

Zhou Chu was her good friend from the orphanage.

Most importantly, they were born on the same day, month, and year.

During their years at the orphanage, they maintained a very close relationship.

last life.

After Zhou Chu was taken away by her biological parents on her twentieth birthday, they had no further contact.

I wonder if she's doing well.

In this life, she was so busy with revenge that she forgot about her good friends.

Just then, a clear voice came from the other end, "Shushu, don't forget our promise."

Meng Shu smiled and agreed.

The following afternoon, Meng Shu returned to the Meng family home and sensed that something was amiss.

In the living room, He Minghua slumped on the floor, sobbing uncontrollably, completely losing her composure.

Meanwhile, Mengwood, his face clouded with gloom, sat silently smoking a cigar.

Meng Shu was somewhat puzzled.

What happened.

Why do they look like they're dead?
