Chapter 938: A Year, If Huo Jiao Leaves, Her Son Will Give I

Man was stunned for a moment.Bai Wei pinched her own husband hard, complaining: "You didn't find out beforehand, how could Wen Man be so open with Gu Changqing here"Bai Wei's husband sincerely apolog...Ho Shao-ting had wanted to say a few sharp words to him.

But looking at Jiang Lan attentively listening with a demure expression, and Huo Jiao hugging little Jiang Sheng adorably by his side, he held back somewhat.

He doesn't want to add more obstacles to his youngest daughter's love life.

Wen Man sent him a cup of tea at just the right time.

Under the light, she had a gentle expression. They were deeply in love as a couple; one glance or movement was enough to understand each other's intentions. Therefore, although Huo Shaoting had many complaints at the moment, he suppressed them temporarily. The sharp words that were about to leave his mouth turned into a careless "Here"

Jiang Lan still looked respectful.

He glanced at Huo Jiao before speaking to Huo Shaoting, “Dad, I should have come back to visit you and Mom with Huo Jiao earlier. It was my oversight! I’m sorry!”

Ho Shao-ting sipped his tea calmly, lost in thought.

For a moment, he suddenly said to his wife, "Wen Man, you take Huo Jiao and the children upstairs first. It's time for Xiao Jiang Sheng to go to sleep too."

Wen Man, though not at ease, still patted his hand back and nodded to Jiang Lan in agreement.

Jiang Lan heard Wen Yan say, "Goodnight, Mom!"

He gazed at Huo Jiao with ardent eyes, but she didn't look at him. She went upstairs holding her son...

Only when they were the only ones left in the lobby on the first floor did Huo Shaoting speak softly, "Have a seat!"

Jiang Lan was pleasantly surprised: "Thank you, Dad!"

Huo Shaoting personally brewed a cup of coffee for Jiang Lan, which made Jiang Lan even more restless... But Huo Shaoting gently pressed his body: "No need to be restrained."

The two sat facing each other.

Over the past two years, they had barely sat together like this. Huo Jiao was gone, and even though Jiang Lan occasionally came over, it was just to drop off gifts, sit for a bit, and leave. Back then, he hadn't even considered trying to get back together.

So, how can there be conversation

Ho Shao-ting spoke in a calm tone, after some thought he said: "Lan listen, I think both you and Huo Jiao are adults. You should handle your relationship maturely! Back then, she hastily married you, and the family members actually didn't agree very much. But now thinking about it, she was gambling at that time. At that time, she still loved you and thought of taking a gamble, but she lost... She was like a deserter in love, escaping abroad. The funny thing is, she didn't lose to anyone else, she lost to you!"

These words left Jiang Lan feeling humiliated.

Indeed, this time Huo Jiao's return wasn't motivated by anything else but the child. If it weren't for the child, they wouldn't have stood a chance of reconciliation. It wasn't that he cared deeply about his son; rather, blood ties are something easily broken.

He also felt sorry for Huo Jiao's situation. She had insisted on marrying him, but he hadn't cherished her.

Ho Shaoting looked at him straight in the eye.

After a long silence, Huo Shaoting seemed to have made up his mind: "One year. If you're still not suitable for each other, just break up! By then, little Jiang Sheng will be less than two years old, and custody will still be with Huo Jiao... Lan Ting, can you understand what I mean My mother and Huo Jiao's mother are both getting older. Although Huo Xi and Yun Si can take care of her, it's not the same... I want someone to accompany her."

Jiang Lan understood what he meant. He wanted a son, and to find another woman to give birth to him.

Jiang Sheng was meant for Huo Jiao.

This is a condition!

Otherwise, he won't be able to take Huo Jiao away to live with him.

This was a gamble, just like when Huo Jiao resolutely married him back then. But Jiang Lan only took one minute to consider before agreeing: "Dad, I agree!"

Jiang Lan was momentarily dazed as she listened.

And then he slightly tilted his head, as if suppressing the moisture in his eyes: "A year later, if Huo Jiao doesn't want to be with me, I'll give Jiang Sheng to her."

Ho Shaoting's eyes softened, and he smiled faintly: "Alright! It's getting late, you should go back first!"

His tone still sounded awkward.

Jiang Lan heard the footsteps leaving, then turned back and said, "I'll go see the child."

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate! he couldn't leave without any concern... Wen Man sensitively felt it.The previous night, she had clung to him, demanding that he hold her.After their encounter, Huo Shaoting held her delicate feet in...
