Wen He came for Huo Chen's mother . Since she could not convince Huo Chen, she could only bet on his obedience to his mother .
Standing by the bedside, Wen He looked on as he took off his shirt before quickly putting on a new light-gray T-shirt .
Everything happened in a flash, and she could not see things clearly even if she wanted to .
"Let's move . " After getting changed, Huo Chen did not even bother to look at her as he walked out .
Once outside, Wen He walked arm-in-arm with him . "Don't worry . I'm a pro and will not get exposed . If your mother asks questions, just shut up and let me handle it," she said .
"I'm asking you to explain to her, not keep feigning it . " Displeased, he lowered his head and glanced at her hand .
"Well, firstly, we do this so that you can get what you want, and I can get what I want . Secondly, don't you still want to be together with your first love? Huo Yunting and her are legit while you're a third party . It's not going to work, and your mother won't allow it . So, don't you get it that I'm actually helping you?"
Huo Chen was transfixed, knowing that Yang Yang and he are gone case . But he never thought of having another woman, let alone Wen He .
"No worries, I'm not interested in you . I just want to keep nagging at you, get the pardon, and leave safely . " She just hoped that Bai could find a way to rescue Ol' Jiu from Xiang Jinxi, and by then, everything was going to be perfect .
"No matter what you do, it's impossible for me to rejoin the army . Are you sure you still want to do this knowing that it's useless?"
Wen He did not believe it . Little did she know that Huo Chen could not now meet the most basic requirement of a soldier .

"Are you sure you won't even consider it knowing that it's a win-win deal? Would you believe that even if I tell your mother the truth, she would still try to get you another girlfriend? After all, you're already thirty-three, not young anymore . "
"If that's what you want, fine . " Huo Chen sneered as he looked at her from head to toe . Playing hardball on people like Wen He was useless . He just needed to play along until she got bored . What's more important was that since Mother was so happy, he should not do the unfilial thing by making her angry .
So, when the granny saw the lovey-dovey couples coming down from the stairs, her approval rating of this 'daughter-in-law' was off the charts . She posed tons of questions at Wen He, asking her this and that . But Wen He was handling them with ease, while Huo Chen remained silent .
During dinner, the whole family had gathered with Huo Zhenning, and Xue Yuming kept staring at Wen He . It looked like the woman had married into the Huo family, while, in fact, she had just arrived as a visitor today .
With a smile on her face all the time, Wen He kept refilling the granny's bowl with food, mostly of light dishes .

"Vegetable is good for your health . "
"Xiao He, I can help myself . Look how slender you are . You should eat more . " The granny was over the moon, seeing how well-mannered she was .
"I will . " Wen He ate with her head lowered while sparing her left hand under the table, tapping lightly on Huo Chen's leg .
It was Morse code, and they both were well-versed in it .
Refill my bowl .

Huo Chen turned to look at her smiling face and got her a piece of meat, expressionlessly .
"Hope that you enjoy the food . "
Others were transfixed by his response . But the granny laughed .
Wen He continued to tap on his leg .
Not bad .
Huo Chen kept refilling her bowl during the entire time, hoping to shut her up .
After dinner, Granny still looked spirited and wanted to chat with Wen He, who sensed that it was an opportunity .Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
