Chapter 527 - He knew he won't have a say in who he will be marrying. (1)
She looked behind Gu Shishi.
“Where’s your man? He didn’t come with you?”
She had invited the entire Huo family this time.
Recently, words had it that Gu Shishi was good luck for her husband.
Not only did she negate Huo Sishen’s cursed nature, she brought good luck for both her husband and son and allowed the Young Master Huo to live a happy life.
As opposed to the Second Young Master Huo who had been wasting away, having bad luck both in his marriage and on the having children fronts, Huo Sishen’s life was seemingly going very smoothly right now.
Whenever the couple showed up together in any events, they both looked well-rested and their cheeks pink. They just looked like lucky and happy people.
Their little son was chubby and smiled no matter who it was who picked him up. He rarely cried. He particularly loved to grab onto elegant things and was very precise when he did that.
The distance that people had been keeping from Huo Sishen were, often times, minimized for Huo Xiao Bao who earned the fondness of everyone.
Old Mrs. Chen, at her age, and being closed with Gu Shishi had long since stopped avoiding Huo Sishen.
“What did he know about appraisal? He just wants to shove it into his mouth when he sees big and bright things.” Gu Shishi genuinely worried that the next thing her son was going to do with to shove the piece into his mouth and chomp down on it. She quickly took him away. “His dad is behind us. He is bringing in the diapers and bottles.”
Old Mrs. Chen looked at the child and rubbed him on his head. “I was wearing a gold locket a few days ago and he didn’t even look at it twice. He wasn’t interested in that one at all. This jade was polished by an old master with the carving of buddha. It had even won an award before. And the little guy fell in love with it right away! He’s got good eyes!”
Gu Shishi smiled bitterly and shook her head.
Her son, indeed, had good senses in this area.
He would act abnormally excited when he encountered renowned work.
To make matters worse, he had a prodigal father and would not only buy him whatever he grabbed, but also a string of new things.
He was such a prodigal that he even said if his son was broke in the future, he could always go into appraisal.
Gu Shishi couldn’t stop these two men and had no choice but to let them immerse in their precious items day in and day out.
“I am sure he had inherited Sister Shishi’s artistic talent,” said Chen Kexin as she looked over enviously.
“I still can’t tell these things apart. He is surely better than me on this front.”
Gu Shishi smiled helplessly, “You come and babysit for me. I guarantee that you will be able to tell good jade from bad in three months.”
All the bad ones were tossed behind him by Huo Xiao Bao and picked up by Aunty Lin.
Those that he approved of he would shove into his toy box and only she was allowed to touch them.
Chen Kexin’s eyes lit up but she quickly saw Huo Sishen who was walking inside. Tall, cold, and a very intimidating aura. She immediately shook her hands in intimidation.
Gu Shishi, on the other hand, looked over in the same direction and saw her prodigal man. She quickly handed her heavy son over to him.
The little kid always wanted to play with precious things. It was getting harder and harder to stop him.
“Happy birthday, Old Mrs. Chen.”
Huo Sishen took his son and put one arm around him tightly. The little boy pouted immediately.
He nodded and greeted Old Mrs. Chen.
“Aye!”
Old Mrs. Chen was emotional.
It wasn’t so much that she cared a lot of congratulatory words from him but, for some odd reasons, hearing them made her happy.
Huo Sishen was extraordinarily handle and was an elite among his generation.
He was a cold one, though, and rarely attended any events in their circle. No other elders had received congratulatory words from him before.
