Chapter 1059: Chapter 1101: Hand in Hand

Ling Yueyue shook her head, slipped out of Huo Junmo’s embrace, sat up, and while lifting the quilt to get out of bed, said, "No need, I haven’t been to school for over a month. If I don’t go again, I’ll definitely fail this semester! Besides, I’ve long quit my job at the café and need to start looking for a new job!"

Huo Junmo got up too, asking in surprise, "You still want to find a job?"

"Of course! I’ve been used to doing things since I was young. It feels boring to stay at home all day doing nothing, so I must find a job to pass the time!" With that, Ling Yueyue walked to the wardrobe, opened the door, and searched for clothes to wear out today.

Huo Junmo followed her to the wardrobe, and from behind, hugged Ling Yueyue’s slender waist, gently and rhythmically rubbing her still flat stomach with his fingers, speaking softly, "You are now Mrs. Huo. If others know you’re working outside, they might think I’m incompetent and can’t even support my own woman!"

Ling Yueyue lightly patted Huo Junmo’s handsome face, dismissively saying, "Living happily is all that matters, why care about what others think! Besides, being self-sufficient, people would just say you married a virtuous wife! Who dares to say the president of the mighty Huo Tian Group is incompetent—that’s courting death!"

Seeing Ling Yueyue’s firmness, Huo Junmo remained silent for a while, thought for a moment, and then proposed a compromise: "But, I don’t want you to work so hard! Instead of spending time working, wouldn’t it be better to spend more time with me? Plus, look, it’s almost time for final exams, and our wedding, honeymoon took so much of your time. You should take this period to study well; otherwise, you’d neglect not only me but also your studies, right? How about this: let’s make a deal! You study well first, and only after passing your exams and during vacation should you go find work, wouldn’t that be killing two birds with one stone?"

"Hmm...!" Hearing Huo Junmo’s words, Ling Yueyue didn’t immediately refuse but started to seriously consider it.

Seeing Ling Yueyue hesitate, Huo Junmo quickly pressed his advantage, "Don’t worry about running out of money during this period, didn’t I give you a golden card? You can use it freely; there’s no limit! After all, a husband supporting his wife is just how things should be; you can confidently use my money!"

"Uh...!" Ling Yueyue was still thinking seriously, not answering.

Huo Junmo gently jiggled Ling Yueyue’s body, acting spoiled, "Even if it’s a small request from your husband, you agree, okay! I don’t want to see my wife working so hard every day, just hope you have more time to spend with me! See, even the president of Huo Tian Group is begging you, wouldn’t I lose face if you don’t agree!"

For the first time seeing Huo Junmo act like this, although a grown man acting spoiled felt a bit strange, Ling Yueyue actually enjoyed it, lightly caressed Huo Junmo’s handsome face, and nodded in agreement, "Since you put it that way, alright, I agree!"

"Mrs. Huo is great!" Huo Junmo grinned happily and planted a firm kiss on Ling Yueyue’s cheek.

Ling Yueyue raised her brows, gracefully accepting Huo Junmo’s praise, "Of course! I’ve always been pretty good! You’ll find me even better in the future!"

Actually, there was another reason she agreed to Huo Junmo’s request!

With the finals coming up, not to mention the academic pressures, there’s now also Nan Jinning living at home! She definitely doesn’t want to focus all her energy on studying and working while neglecting the man at home, thus giving Nan Jinning a chance!

Between work and her man, of course, the man is more important!

Moreover, her belly is getting bigger; even if she goes to work, it’ll probably not last long! Rather than struggling to find a job that won’t be long-term, it’s better to temporarily not find a job! She also isn’t like before anymore—without work, she’d have no money! Since Huo Junmo is her husband, she might as well use his money for now!

A husband’s earnings are for the wife to spend, aren’t they?

Plus, she feels it’s almost time to tell Huo Junmo about the baby in her belly!

The baby is now two months, almost three months along; in at most another month, her belly will start to show! If she doesn’t tell Huo Junmo beforehand for him to be mentally prepared, and Huo Junmo sees her belly suddenly getting bigger, he’d definitely be shocked!

The reason she hadn’t told Huo Junmo before was that she didn’t want him to marry her and treat her well just because of the baby in her belly. She wanted Huo Junmo to truly like her before telling him this!

Now Huo Junmo treats her so well, even though he hasn’t verbally expressed his affection, she knows he genuinely likes her, so it’s about time to find a suitable opportunity to tell him.

The two took out the clothes they planned to wear today from the wardrobe, changed, and once they were groomed, they were ready to leave the room! As they reached the door, Ling Yueyue suddenly grabbed Huo Junmo’s hand, letting him hold hers.

Huo Junmo looked at her, a bit puzzled.

"Holding hands, otherwise, how would people know we’re in love!" Ling Yueyue gave a sweet smile, opened the door, and they exited hand in hand.

When Huo Junmo and Ling Yueyue came downstairs, Huo Jiantian had already left for school, while Nan Jinning, like the hostess of the house, was sitting on the sofa watching TV! Hearing sounds from the stairs, she immediately put down the remote, stood up excitedly, and skipped to the staircase entrance. When she saw Huo Junmo and Ling Yueyue coming down hand in hand, her smile froze, and a clear trace of jealousy and dissatisfaction crossed her eyes!

"Morning, Miss Cousin!" Ling Yueyue acted as if she hadn’t noticed, smiling and waved to greet Nan Jinning! However, seeing Nan Jinning’s slightly swollen and red eyes, her amusement deepened!

She knew it! Nan Jinning must have been hiding somewhere listening through an open arm window last night!

Look at those swollen eyes; she must have been crying quietly all night! Otherwise, it wouldn’t still be swollen past ten in the morning! Seems like last night, she definitely soaked the bed with her tears!

Haha...!

Thinking of Nan Jinning’s state from last night, she couldn’t be happier!

Nan Jinning pouted, moodily saying, "Good morning? It’s already past the prime time, and the sun is high enough to tan your backside!"

Ling Yueyue calmly countered, "Oh come on! It’s just past ten, not really that late! You know, newlyweds, sleep late at night, and wake up late in the morning—it’s totally normal! With such a large amount of exercise, if you don’t make up for sleep well, in the long run, your body wouldn’t be able to handle it!"
