Chapter 1023: Isn’t This Confusing the Generations?
by xennovel“Hey are you not even a little embarrassed? My mom is so much older than you yet you’re dating her.”
Huo Xiao nudged Xu Shaochen as she had to break them up.
Otherwise, just thinking about having to call Xu Shaochen dad made her feel ashamed.
“Why would I be? Others will just envy me for being with Sister Ying so what’s there to be embarrassed about?”
Xu Shaochen looked harmless but the young girl didn’t understand. This kind of charming mature woman was what men liked.
“I give up. Fine, I won’t meddle in you and my mom’s affair but you can’t make me call you dad. Brother sounds better.”
Seeing Xu Shaochen’s shamelessly proud look, Huo Xiao could only choose to negotiate.
Xu Shaochen smiled at her: “No way wouldn’t that confuse the generations? Besides, many women call me brother but you’d be the first to call me dad.”
“Ah, I’m going crazy!”
Huo Xiao scratched her head feeling like she was going to explode.
If she wasn’t afraid of her mom getting angry, she’d throw this scoundrel out.
“Sweet daughter, wash your hands for dinner. Daddy will go help your mom with the dishes.”
Xu Shaochen mischievously patted Huo Xiao’s cheek as he hummed a tune walking into the kitchen.
“Sister Ying, let me do it. Be careful not to burn yourself.”
“It’s fine. I’m not that delicate. Xiaoxiao is spoiled by me. Don’t take her seriously.”
“What are you saying? Your daughter is my daughter too. How could I take her seriously?”
Seeing Xu Shaochen and her mom so intimate, Huo Xiao suddenly felt unnecessary.
She sighed helplessly then went to wash her face before coming out for dinner.
“Stop it. Xiaoxiao is still here. Time to eat.”
“It’s okay. She went to the bathroom.”
As soon as she came out, she saw Xu Shaochen behaving indecently with her mom who was blushing and torn.
“Cough cough…”
Huo Xiao faked a cough to remind them: “There’s still someone else here. Should I make room for you?”
Huo Ying’s pretty face turned red.
Xu Shaochen withdrew his hand, acting as if nothing had happened.
The three sat around the table to start dinner.
“Come Xiaoxiao, you must be scared these days. Let dad get you a chicken wing to calm down.”
Xu Shaochen grinned as he served Huo Xiao food, enjoying how she seethed yet couldn’t do anything.
A real man said she’d call him dad eventually, so he had to make that happen.
Huo Xiao rolled her eyes accepting the chicken wing.
“Thanks… dad.”
Huo Xiao almost shattered her teeth on the last word.
She’d never had a dad but now she was supposed to call a man barely older than her dad. This was absurd.
But seeing how happy her mom looked she didn’t argue with Xu Shaochen.
Knowing how hard her mom had it raising her, if her mom was happy she’d make a little sacrifice.
After all, calling him dad wouldn’t hurt.
Dinner was pleasant, though Huo Xiao inwardly wished to tear Xu Shaochen apart.
“Mom, I’ll help with the dishes.”
After dinner, Huo Xiao rushed to the kitchen not wanting to be alone with Xu Shaochen.
Otherwise, she felt she might explode from his antics.
“Sister Ying, it’s getting late. I’ll head home. Make sure to lock the door tonight.”
Xu Shaochen checked his watch and shouted to Huo Ying in the kitchen.
“Xiaoxiao, go see him off quickly.”
Huo Ying hurriedly instructed Huo Xiao.
A woman in love loses her mind, especially an older woman captivated by Xu Shaochen.
Huo Xiao pouted opening the door: “Drive safely.”
“Got a bodyguard driving.” Xu Shaochen replied.
Huo Xiao dismissively responded: “Oh.”
“No this won’t do your mom would kill me.”
Xu Shaochen left after joking around.
Huo Xiao stood there stunned, her face red with both shame and anger.
“Scoundrel, bastard. He dared tease me!”
“What are you mumbling about?”
Huo Ying came out frowning.
“Nothing.” Huo Xiao quickly shut up then asked: “Mom, are you really going to be with him? He won’t marry you.”
“I know. Even if he wanted to, I wouldn’t agree. He’s too young. In the end, I’m much older than him.”
Huo Xiao’s eyes lit up thinking her mom would break up with Xu Shaochen eventually. She felt relieved.
“So I’ll just follow him as long as he still cares about me. I’m content.” Huo Ying smiled blissfully.
Huo Xiao: “…………”
Oh my gosh, does love reduce intelligence?
Her mom willingly became a lover to a man in his twenties. She had to accept this young dad.
………………
On another note,
Xu Shaochen had returned home quite pleased with himself for having a beautiful daughter and a charming mature woman.
“Why so late What were you doing?”
On the sofa, Jenny looked at Xu Shaochen.
“I had a big project, installing elevators on Mount Everest.”
Xu Shaochen carelessly told nonsense as he sat among the women enjoying the fragrance.
“Shaochen, how do you plan to celebrate your birthday?”
Song Xinran asked with a facial mask on her face coming out of the bathroom.
“We’ll host a banquet at Chen Yu Grand Hotel.”
Xu Shaochen replied since he’d promised Lin Wei to help the Lin Family integrate into Jiangzhou’s business circle.
Otherwise, he’d just invite some friends and family for a gathering.
“Are we all going?”
Mei Liangxinying asked because typically, Xu Shaochen would only bring one of them to formal occasions.
“Of course, it’s my birthday. How could my women not be there?”
Xu Shaochen kissed Mei Liangxinying leaving a faint lipstick mark.
It was a bit awkward as it was left by Huo Ying and he’d forgotten to wipe it.
Zhao Qingyu rolled her eyes helping to wipe it off Mei Liangxinying’s face.
Everyone knew Xu Shaochen’s nature so nobody demanded much regarding his affairs.
