Chapter 184: Chapter 184: Why Don’t You Go Die?

Mo Ke nearly bit his own tongue.

Amitabha Buddha, he spoke out of turn; he shouldn’t have asked.

This price, truly frightening enough to scare a person to death without recompense.

Huo Tingdong said, “This one, pack it up.”

“Alright.”

The store manager personally packaged the necklace, and Mo Ke carefully received it.

Huo Tingdong just got into the car when he received a call.

The call was from Huo Yanlin—Huo Tingdong’s father.

Huo Tingdong answered the call, “Hello?”

Huo Yanlin said, “Tingdong, how have you been recently?”

Communication between father and son was filled with estrangement.

Since his mother’s death, his father remarried and started a new business venture overseas. With infrequent meetings and numerous departures, Huo Tingdong was not close to his father Huo Yanlin.

Huo Yanlin wanted to care for him but didn’t know where to start, feeling the desire but powerless to express it.

Huo Tingdong said, “Everything’s fine.”

Huo Yanlin said, “Your grandmother called me, saying that you’ve acknowledged your son who was lost for seven years. Is this true?”

“Yes.”

“Who is the child’s biological mother?”

Huo Tingdong replied, “Lin Qi.”

“Your ex-wife?” Huo Yanlin’s tone paused slightly, “Have you gotten custody back?”

Huo Tingdong said, “Since father has asked, then I also have something I wish to report to father.”

Huo Yanlin was taken aback, “What is it?”

Huo Tingdong said, “Father, I want to remarry Lin Qi.”

His tone was merely informative, not seeking approval.

As a father, Huo Yanlin knew his son’s character quite well; once Huo Tingdong made a decision, nobody could sway him.

Huo Yanlin asked, “Have you made up your mind?”

Huo Tingdong gave an “Mhm,” “I think, father wouldn’t oppose my remarriage to Lin Qi.”

Huo Yanlin said, “Tingdong, since you’re set on your decision, at the very least, you should arrange for us to meet.”

Huo Tingdong said, “Alright, then I’ll make the arrangements. When is father returning to the country?”

Huo Yanlin pondered for a moment, “Next week, I will come back with Ye Chan.”

Ye Chan, Huo Yanlin’s second wife after the death of Huo Mu, and Huo Tingdong’s stepmother.

She was much younger than Huo Yanlin, only three years older than Huo Tingdong, but she was young and beautiful.

Originally, the Old Madam strongly opposed this marriage. She didn’t object to Huo Yanlin remarrying, but she didn’t want this woman to enter the family, preferring to keep her outside, since the Huo Family’s fortune was vast and she worried that the woman might covet the Huo Family’s assets.

In order to marry Ye Chan, Huo Yanlin agreed to all sorts of harsh conditions set by the Old Madam and signed multiple prenuptial agreements with Ye Chan. All these years, Ye Chan hadn’t been able to give Huo Yanlin a child of their own, partly because “infertility” was one of the terms of the agreement.

Marrying Huo Yanlin, she was not to bear a next generation to vie for the inheritance with Huo Tingdong.

Ye Chan signed on the dotted line, and only then was she allowed to marry in and get officially registered with Huo Yanlin.

After the marriage, as per Mr. Huo’s wishes, Huo Yanlin transferred all shares and real estate, the billions of dollars’ worth of assets, into Huo Tingdong’s name, and left with a few billion dollars to start a new venture overseas.

After reaching adulthood, Huo Tingdong inherited the Huo Family empire.

Naturally, Huo Yanlin was considering his son’s best interests. At the time, when Huo Tingdong was comatose in bed for two years, resembling a vegetative state, Ye Chan clung to him, wanting to bear him a son to continue the Huo family lineage, and he did not agree.

Huo Tingdong, while distant and not close to Huo Yanlin, also respected him, and for his stepmother, he was merely indifferent, but not overly hostile.

Huo Tingdong said, “Understood.”

After hanging up the call, Mo Ke overheard the gist of it, “Is Chairman Huo coming back next week?”

Huo Yanlin was still the honorary chairman of the Huo Family.

Huo Tingdong said, “He wants to meet Lin Qi.”

Mo Ke said, “So, how do we arrange it? Do we need to book a restaurant?”

Huo Tingdong said, “If it’s a family banquet, then let’s meet at home.”

“Alright.”

Mo Ke nodded.

He looked at the shopping bag and asked, “When does Mr. Huo plan to give this gift to Miss Lin?”

Huo Tingdong said, “Today.”

Mo Ke said, “Isn’t that a bit casual?”

Huo Tingdong turned around, leisurely retorting, “Then what do you think I should do to make it seem less ‘casual’?”

Mo Ke said, “At the very least, you should create a romantic setting.”

He was quite the idea man.

Huo Tingdong said, “For example?”

Mo Ke said, “In idol dramas, the male lead always presents a mysterious surprise to the female lead in a very romantic environment, leaving her moved to tears and swept off her feet.”

Huo Tingdong mocked, “You still watch idol dramas?”

Mo Ke: “…” Oops, he’d revealed too much.

Not only did he watch idol dramas, but he also read cheesy romance novels.

Huo Tingdong said, “If you have any ideas, then you arrange it. But I won’t allow any mistakes. If there’s even the slightest slip-up, I’ll dock your quarterly bonus.”

Mo Ke swallowed hard, “Alright, I’ll give it everything I’ve got, as long as Mr. Huo does as I say.”

Huo Tingdong was a no-nonsense kind of guy, seemingly allergic to romance. He feared that Mo Ke could come up with an elaborate plan which Huo Tingdong might refuse to carry out.

Huo Tingdong said, “As I’ve said, I only care about the results, not the process.”

Mo Ke said, “How about I bring Miss Lin to the amusement park, and Mr. Huo, you wear a mascot suit, then pop up mysteriously to hand her the gift. In her astonishment, you take off the headpiece and let her discover it was you who painstakingly prepared all this surprise, she will definitely be moved…”

Huo Tingdong: “Why don’t you go die?”

Mo Ke: “…”

Huo Tingdong said, “Such childish tricks, are you using professional matters to satisfy your own bad taste?”

He suspected that after so many years of a “deep connection between master and servant,” Mo Ke wanted to use this tactic to mess with him.

Mo Ke awkwardly touched his nose, “Right, with a fortune of several hundred billion dollars and as Huace Group’s president, dressing as a mascot is indeed beneath you, too demeaning.” He was just thinking about the scene, imagining it would be quite cute with a bit of contrast.

Mo Ke then said, “Mr. Huo could also take Miss Lin to the amusement park, ride the Ferris wheel with her, and when it reaches the highest point, confess your feelings and then give her the gift. At that moment, I’ll arrange for the park staff to set off fireworks.”

Huo Tingdong said, “Think about it some more.”

The two walked one after the other towards the garage.

Half an hour later.

Huo Tingdong reached home.

Lin Qi saw him and her face changed, “You’re back!”

With one glance, Huo Tingdong saw through what she was thinking.

It seemed that him measuring her neck circumference yesterday made her somewhat misunderstand and cast a serious psychological shadow.

However, he wasn’t in a hurry to explain.

Huo Tingdong asked, “Have you eaten?”

“Not yet, I was waiting for you.”

Lin Qi immediately got up and said, “I’ll call Momo and Han over.”

Huo Tingdong nodded and sat down in the dining room.

Lin Qi pushed Momo and Han gently out of the room as if she were herding ducks.
