Cutesy Wife Sweet Like Honey: Mr. Mu's Nightly Dote!

Chapter 976: Chapter 1019: Vampire

”I...! I...!” The person on the other end of the phone was in a difficult position, unsure of how to start speaking.

Ling Yueyue was not anxious and simply waited for the other side to speak!

After all, she knew that her family wouldn’t call her out of the blue! Every time they called, it was all about money, and they never called just to check on her!

For such a family, if not for the fact that they gave birth to her, she wouldn’t want to see anything good from them in this lifetime.

She remembered the last time they called was two days before the incident with Huo Junmo at the hotel. They called and immediately asked for twenty thousand! It was as if she were an ATM!

If she hadn’t taken over ten thousand yuan from Huo Junmo’s wallet that day, she really wouldn’t have known where to find the whole twenty thousand.

On the other end, Ling’s father remained silent, while Ling’s mother lost patience and snatched the phone from him, saying, ”If you won’t say it, I will! Absolutely useless!” Then she put the receiver to her ear and said with full confidence, ”Yueyue, we’re out of money. Send some living expenses back!”

Hearing Ling’s mother’s words, Ling Yueyue was furious, ”Didn’t I just give you twenty thousand? It’s only been a month, and it’s all gone?”

Ling’s mother retorted matter-of-factly, ”For our big family, a mere twenty thousand isn’t enough! Just your younger brother and sister’s tuition, living expenses, clothes, daily expenses, it all adds up to a huge amount! If we didn’t scrimp and save, it wouldn’t be nearly enough!”

”A mere twenty thousand? You have quite the nerve! Do you know that twenty thousand is my entire year’s salary? Since you think twenty thousand isn’t enough, find your own way, don’t come to me! I’m telling you, I don’t have a penny left!” Hearing Ling’s mother’s tone, Ling Yueyue angrily hung up the phone.

Calling twenty thousand ”a mere twenty thousand”!

Her monthly wage from working was only two thousand, which amounted to only twenty-four thousand a year, assuming she didn’t eat, drink, or spend anything!

She had painstakingly stolen twenty thousand yuan from Huo Junmo’s wallet, and her mother used it all up in just a month! How could she not be angry! Thinking of her mother’s insatiable greed, coming to her for money as if it were the most natural thing, made her so furious she wanted to cry!

She had never seen a mother like this before!

Since childhood, they left her with her aunt in Jin City, neglecting her, giving only a pittance for living expenses! Until her aunt left Jin City, they didn’t provide any living expenses anymore! Then they relied on her to support them! And she was only in her teens then!

How could she have such irresponsible parents? If it were because she was a girl, and they favored boys over girls, she could understand!

But that wasn’t the case! She had several younger sisters! Seeing how loving her parents were to her sisters made her envious! Even if they could give her just a tenth of the love they showed her sisters, she’d be content!

But they had no affection for her, only treating her like a Vampire, constantly sucking from her.

Thinking about these years of experience, Ling Yueyue’s eyes reddened, and tears welled up at the corners of her eyes!

She wiped her eyes, took a deep breath, and pushed all the grievances and anger down in her heart!

Last night, she was still hesitating about whether to invite her parents over! But after this call, she figured she wouldn’t! She didn’t want them to come over at all!

If they found out she married Huo Junmo, they would surely suck him dry like they did to her!

So, she decided to invite only her best friend Ye Anxin’s family!

As for her parents...? She could only think of other ways!

Just then, the phone she just hung up started ringing again!

Ling Yueyue glanced at her phone and saw it was Ling’s father calling again. Without thinking, she directly rejected the call.

Immediately, the phone rang again!

Annoyed, Ling Yueyue simply turned off her phone!

With it off, the world was finally quiet!

Being woken up by a phone call early in the morning, Ling Yueyue couldn’t sleep anymore, so she got up and went to the bathroom to freshen up.

Last night, when the maid tidied up her room, she prepared disposable toothbrushes and towels! In no time, her face and mouth were washed, and she opened her room door to go downstairs.

As she opened her room, another room two doors away opened simultaneously! Huo Jiantian’s small figure emerged.

”Good morning, Tiantian!” Ling Yueyue grinned, greeting him cheerfully.

Hearing the voice, Huo Jiantian turned and saw Ling Yueyue standing behind him, reaching out with a smile. He rolled his eyes, pouted, and walked downstairs without looking back.

Ling Yueyue wasn’t bothered at all by Huo Jiantian’s cold and disdainful attitude. She quickly caught up with him, lightly tapped his shoulder, and smiled, ”Why are you up so early? Why not sleep a little longer?”

”Hmph!” Huo Jiantian just grunted coldly, continuing downstairs.

Undeterred, Ling Yueyue continued to ask, ”Where’s your dad?”

Huo Jiantian sneered, ”Why do you care? He’s my dad! I’m telling you, stay away from him! There are plenty of women throwing themselves at him every day. Even if you’re married to him now, you can’t hold his heart! He likes Sister Anxin, he likes my mom, not you, this wicked stepmother! I’ll never forgive you for hitting me!”

Ling Yueyue mimicked Huo Jiantian’s cold grunt, thumping her chest with conviction, ”Hmph...! Is that so? Well, I’ll tell you, one day I’ll have your dad all to myself! And you... one day you’ll willingly call me mom!”

”Hmph... Copycat, shameless!” He said, sticking his tongue out at Ling Yueyue.

”...! Brat!” Ling Yueyue raised an eyebrow, amused and exasperated!

Although Huo Jiantian was always challenging her and constantly calling her a wicked stepmother, at times his proud little demeanor was quite cute!

The two went downstairs together, just as Huo Junmo returned from his morning jog!

Seeing them, he wiped his sweat with the towel hanging around his neck and said gently, ”You’re both up early! Sit on the sofa for a bit while I go take a shower, then we’ll have breakfast together!”

This was the first time Ling Yueyue saw Huo Junmo in sportswear. The dark blue tracksuit made him look less mature and stable and more youthful, taking off ten years, almost like a college student.

Seeing him like this, Ling Yueyue’s eyes brightened, ”Did you go for a jog?”
