My Youth Began With Him

“What a joke! Why would I need to investigate you? The internet is so advanced now. One second your picture’s on Zhang Manlin’s social media and the next, it’s sent all throughout the hospital. A lot of my colleagues are talking about how capable she is, about how she’s able to have dinner with President Qin. Meanwhile, I, the spouse, am here at the hospital, stupidly working the night away. Ha.”

“So, what are you saying?”

“What I want to say is, stop suspecting me of this and that. You wouldn’t be happy either if I questioned you and Zhang Manlin, right?”

You think there’s something going on between me and that irrelevant woman just because we ate together?” Qin Chu was losing his patience.

“What about you? You’re suspicious of me and Doctor Liu just because of ramen? Not to mention ramen I didn’t even accept?!” Huo Mian was very loud. She was also riled up.

-At the entrance –

The twins didn’t walk far away; they could clearly hear their parents’ argument.

Little Bean: “Sis, we’re in trouble. I suggested the sweet soup to get them closer, but…”

Pudding: “It’s not your fault. How could you possibly predict this?”

Little Bean: “That’s right… why did we run into Doctor Liu wooing Mommy? Daddy loves Mommy so much. Can you imagine how jealous he is?”

Pudding: “There’s definitely something wrong between Daddy and Mommy. Even if nothing happened today, it was probably going to explode soon.”

Little Bean: “What do you mean? Sis, did you discover something?”

Pudding: “I didn’t discover anything. I just think something’s off recently.”

Little Bean: “I think so too, so I’m always worried about them. They won’t get a divorce, right?”

Pudding: “Are they even married?”

Little Bean:“…”

Pudding: “The problem right now isn’t whether they’re getting a divorce or not. The important thing is getting to the root of the problem.”

Little Bean: “That’ll be very difficult. Both Daddy and Mommy don’t like to talk about things like this. It’ll be hard to get anything out of them.”

Pudding: “So, we need a plan. For Daddy, I think we should ask Uncle Zhixin to see if there’s anything going on at the company.”

Little Bean: “What about South Side?”

Pudding: “Silly, of course we’ll ask Auntie Jie.”

Little Bean: “Oh yea, I forgot about that. Sis, you really are the best… but shouldn’t we refer to her as family now? After all, she’s already married to Uncle Ni Yang.”

Pudding: “Yes, I think we should pay Uncle Ni Yang a visit sometime soon to get some information.”

Little Bean: “That’s a good plan. Otherwise, I’m going to go nuts watching them fight like this. It’s really giving me a headache.”

Pudding: “I don’t think you need to worry. After all, they’ve been through way more than we have. The only thing we need to ensure is that no other person comes between Mommy and Daddy.”

Little Bean: “Uh… Even if it’s Uncle Su?”

Pudding: “Of course, even if it’s Uncle Su. Daddy and Mommy are soulmates.”

Little Bean: “Sis, your words are incredibly powerful. I support you.”

The sisters weren’t in the mood to play at all. They could hear the argument all too clearly.

Little Bean’s good intentions had turned into the reason behind Qin Chu and Huo Mian’s fight.

Finally, Qin Chu walked out of the office with a heavy expression. “Girls, let’s go home.”

“Where’s Mommy?”

Your Mommy’s busy. Don’t worry about her…”

With that, Qin Chu walked away with long and fast strides…

The twins followed behind, feeling completely unsettled.

-Inside the library of the old Huo Manor –

A smug smile appeared on Huo Siqian’s face as he listened to the conversation through his wiretap.

“I can’t believe it… they’re already arguing. Haha.”

“Boss, it sounds like Miss Huo’s crying in her office. Do you think you should comfort her? It’s a good time to swoop in since she’s fragile?” Ah-Cheng asked.
