Huo Jingshen looked around.
Indeed, among the four, his darling was the most beautiful!
The others have no idea that Huo Jing Shen was comparing their looks internally.
Together they greeted, “Hello, Boss Huo.”
This was something they had discussed earlier. Given Huo Jing Shen’s formidable credentials and the fact that he was ten years older than them, calling him uncle would be disrespectful, brother would be too crude, so the only option was to call him “Boss Huo.”
As expected, Boss Huo was pleased, curling his thin lips, “Darling, what about me?”
Su Wenwen had no choice but to say, “This is my husband, Huo Jingshen.” “Hello, Boss Huo!” the three chimed together again.
This time, even the corners of Huo Jingshen’s mouth curled up, making his voice rather gentle, “It’s cold outside, let’s get in the car first.”
Having said that, he led Su Wanwan toward the car by her hand.
The three followed behind, whispering in discussion:
“I didn’t expect Boss Huo to be sodown to earth!”
“I thought all overbearing bosses would be super assertive.”
“He even said it’s cold outside, rushing us to get in the car.”
“He is just so relatable…”

Huo Jingshen was driving with Su Wanwan sitting in the passenger seat, the three girls squeezed together in the backseat.
Once the car started moving, the three began to chat.
Due to Huo Jingshen’s presence they didn’t dare to be too boisterous, and could only discuss academic and school matters.
First, they talked about the English proficiency test that just took place yesterday.
Then they discussed preparations for the final exam.
The restaurant was located quite far away, and lastly, they started talking about the intern field trip next semester.
“I heard Professor Wang saying that they plan to take the two classes to Sanya for a field trip this year!”
“Sanya? Seriously?”
“I heard they went to Mount Tai last year, and it was exhausting. Sanya should be nice, then we can go to the beach!”
“I need to start losing weight, or else, I wouldn’t be able to wear a bikini by then!”
“Wow, does that mean we can see the campus hottie in his swimming trunks…”
At the driver’s seat, Huo Jingshen’s slender fingers tightened around the steering wheel, an eyebrow twitching.
The beach?
A bikini?
The campus hottie in swimming trunks?
He felt extremely uncomfortable hearing these phrases.

They finally reached Xiaoye Garden.
That’s right, the rustic-themed restaurant that Chu Xiuhuang owned.
As soon as they entered, someone came to welcome them, “Big Brother.”
Then, he looked at Su Wanwan standing beside and greeted her with a conflicted look, “Hello, sister-in-law.”
This was the first time Chu Shiwu had seen the so-called sister-in-law of the Huo family.
The old man, Chu, had mentioned her a few times before, always with a tinge of envy… an old buffalo eating young grass!
It turns out that it was indeed true. She was such tender grass, even two years younger than him. If it weren’t for the invisible pressure from Huo Jingshen, Chu Shiwu would have struggled to greet her.
“Who are you?” Su Wanwan asked, baffled.
Huo Jingshen introduced him, “His name is Chu Shiwu, Chu Xiuhuang’s younger brother, and also a senior in your news department.”
Wearing a light-colored sweater and jeans, Chu Shiwu was elegant and handsome with sharp features reminiscent of Chu Xiuhuang.
But his personality was more reserved and studious. His smile was radiant and his eyes clear, a model of a proper gentle and good-looking young man.
Su Wanwan thought, this was how the young heir of an aristocratic family should be, unlike Chu Xiuhuang who was too eccentric…
“You guys can reach out to him for any academic consultation in the future.” Huo Jingshen said this to the three girls.
Chu Shiwu could only smile: “…”
He had gone back home during lunch only to run into Huo Jingshen.
After respectfully calling him big brother and answering a few of his questions, he was dragged by Huo Jing Shen to join them for lunch.
He was forced.
Yet Su Wanwan immediately understood… It was clear that older men had a better understanding of social etiquette!
He didn’t talk much during the journey, likely because he found it challenging to connect with the three girls. He must have felt uneasy thinking about the forthcoming dinner. She didn’t expect him to be so considerate to invite a young and handsome guy of their age, who also happens to be a news department senior from their university… Now they wouldn’t have any problems finding common topics during dinner.
The dinner turned out to be quite cheerful.
At the end, Chu Shiwu even willingly offered, “I will drive you all back, I need to return to the school to get something.”
This was also one of Huo Jing Shen’s requirements.
“Yes, yes,” the three were naturally overjoyed.
Compared to the mature and deep Boss Huo, they preferred a sunny and handsome young man like Chu Shiwu.
When Chu Shiwu drove off with the three female students, Su Wanwan belatedly realized something was off.
Images from last night started playing on a loop in her mind…
“I’m going back to school!” she immediately blurted out.
“You should come home on weekends.”
“But I left some stuff in the classroom.”
“Ask a classmate to help get them.” After all, she owed him that favor.
Su Wenwen: “…”
Sneaky!
Seeing Su Wanwan still appearing reluctant, Huo Jing Shen said again, “We have a parent-child activity with Ziyang tomorrow.”
“What kind of parent-child activity?”
“It’s an autumn outing organized by the school.”
“Isn’t it winter now and not autumn?”
Huo Jingshen shot her a look, Su Wanwan immediately coughed twice, “Where?”
“I forgot, I will ask when I get back.”
Su Wanwan glared at him, “Are you tricking me on purpose?”
“In your eyes, am I that kind of husband who always tries to trick you into coming home?” Huo Jingshen asked with righteous indignation.
“Yes.” Su Wanwan responded naturally.
Huo Jingshen:
