My Youth Began With Him

“I said, I want Huo Mian to move in with us.”

“Why?” His mother looked at him with a confused expression.

“I don’t think the hospital’s safe…”

“What do you mean? It’s the military hospital! How can it not be safe?”

“Safety isn’t the only reason… Another reason is that the hospital doesn’t give her a sense of home… She’s pregnant right now. I don’t want her to wait out her entire pregnancy in such a lonely place… She’s not due for months… That poor thing doesn’t have her family by her side… Our house is big and dad and Grandpa aren’t always home. Don’t you think having someone by your side would be nice?”

“I understand what you mean, but why would she come live with us? She’s not your wife, nor is she even your girlfriend…”

Su Yu’s mother had a point.

“Who said that only my wife or girlfriend could move in. I always thought you had an open mind. I never expected you to be so traditional…”

His mother was speechless.

“I… I…” Su Yu’s mother didn’t know how to respond.

Su Yu continued to argue his point, “Our place is the safest… There’s a whole army corp protecting our house because of Grandpa… That’s why I think Huo Mian would be the safest here. Even an international top-grade assassin wouldn’t be able to sneak into our home… She could give birth to the baby here without worrying that one of those bastards might hurt her.”

“Hurt her? Someone’s trying to hurt her?”

“Of course, otherwise I wouldn’t have to go through all this trouble! Also, Huo Mian might not even be willing to move in because she’s too embarrassed. You might not be able to tell, but she’s a very prideful girl… That’s why I need you to help me with this.”

“I…” Su Yu’s mother dumbfounded.

“That’s why I’m begging you…”

“Can I say no then?” Su Yu’s mother thought that her son’s request was too hard to fulfill.

“Are you really my mother?”

Su Yu’s mother didn’t know how to respond again.

“I don’t know how to convince your dad or grandfather…”

“I can convince them myself, you don’t have to worry about that.”

“But…”

“Ah. No more buts. If you don’t have anything more to say, then this has been decided. I’m going to tidy up one of our rooms and get someone to redecorate it a bit before she moves in next week.”

Su Yu finished his sentence and walked upstairs.

“Ah… this child of mine… Has he gone nuts?”

Su Yu’s mother was worried because she hadn’t consulted her husband nor her father-in-law before letting Huo Mian move in.

Su Yu was a man of his words. He immediately started to tidy up one of the empty rooms in the mansion.

He first cleared out the room that he normally used and moved his own stuff into the study next door.

There was a twin bed in the study. It was smaller but overall, still very clean and tidy.

If Huo Mian moved in, she would be in the room right next to him. He felt overwhelmed with joy when he realized how close he would be to her.

– Midnight, at the Huo Family Mansion –

Huo Siqian, the executives at his entertainment company, some directors, and beautiful girls in bikinis were having a pool party at his mansion.

It was very lively… and it was also filled with nudity. In film terms, it would be parental guidance status.

A director was kissing and touching a not-so-famous female star as if no one was around.

Huo Siqian didn’t seem to mind as he calmly smoked a cigar with a smirk on his face.

It was as if he was just watching some television show…

Over the years, he had seen all sorts of bizarre things. After opening up his entertainment company, he was able to understand the inner rules very well amongst celebrities. That was why he did so well in this circle.

Suddenly, he received a notification on his phone.

He opened up his WeChat to see a picture. Huo Siqian first glanced at it but soon squinted to look at the picture carefully.
