Wen He came for Huo Chen’s mother. Since she could not convince Huo Chen, she could only bet on his obedience to his mother.
Standing by the bedside, Wen He looked on as he took off his shirt before quickly putting on a new light-gray T-shirt.
Everything happened in a flash, and she could not see things clearly even if she wanted to.
“Let’s move.” After getting changed, Huo Chen did not even bother to look at her as he walked out.
Once outside, Wen He walked arm-in-arm with him. “Don’t worry. I’m a pro and will not get exposed. If your mother asks questions, just shut up and let me handle it,” she said.

“Well, firstly, we do this so that you can get what you want, and I can get what I want. Secondly, don’t you still want to be together with your first love? Huo Yunting and her are legit while you’re a third party. It’s not going to work, and your mother won’t allow it. So, don’t you get it that I’m actually helping you?”
Huo Chen was transfixed, knowing that Yang Yang and he are gone case. But he never thought of having another woman, let alone Wen He.
“No worries, I’m not interested in you. I just want to keep nagging at you, get the pardon, and leave safely.” She just hoped that Bai could find a way to rescue Ol’ Jiu from Xiang Jinxi, and by then, everything was going to be perfect.
“No matter what you do, it’s impossible for me to rejoin the army. Are you sure you still want to do this knowing that it’s useless?”
Wen He did not believe it. Little did she know that Huo Chen could not now meet the most basic requirement of a soldier.
“Are you sure you won’t even consider it knowing that it’s a win-win deal? Would you believe that even if I tell your mother the truth, she would still try to get you another girlfriend? After all, you’re already thirty-three, not young anymore.”
“If that’s what you want, fine.” Huo Chen sneered as he looked at her from head to toe. Playing hardball on people like Wen He was useless. He just needed to play along until she got bored. What’s more important was that since Mother was so happy, he should not do the unfilial thing by making her angry.
So, when the granny saw the lovey-dovey couples coming down from the stairs, her approval rating of this ‘daughter-in-law’ was off the charts. She posed tons of questions at Wen He, asking her this and that. But Wen He was handling them with ease, while Huo Chen remained silent.
During dinner, the whole family had gathered with Huo Zhenning, and Xue Yuming kept staring at Wen He. It looked like the woman had married into the Huo family, while, in fact, she had just arrived as a visitor today.
With a smile on her face all the time, Wen He kept refilling the granny’s bowl with food, mostly of light dishes.
“Vegetable is good for your health.”
“Xiao He, I can help myself. Look how slender you are. You should eat more.” The granny was over the moon, seeing how well-mannered she was.
“I will.” Wen He ate with her head lowered while sparing her left hand under the table, tapping lightly on Huo Chen’s leg.

Refill my bowl.
Huo Chen turned to look at her smiling face and got her a piece of meat, expressionlessly.
“Hope that you enjoy the food.”
Others were transfixed by his response. But the granny laughed.
Wen He continued to tap on his leg.
Not bad.
Huo Chen kept refilling her bowl during the entire time, hoping to shut her up.
After dinner, Granny still looked spirited and wanted to chat with Wen He, who sensed that it was an opportunity.
