The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 182

After dinner, although Huo ShaoJie and Huo Mei Shu ate a little cautiously, the two were still convinced by the dishes cooked by Huo Shao Ting.

The table full of food was wiped out clean.

"Sister-in-law, let me do it! You just recovered, go take a rest!"

Seeing Rong Dai about to clean up the bowls and chopsticks, Huo ShaoJie quickly stepped forward to clean up.

He's kidding! With big brother still here, and these were the dishes big brother cooked, if he let sister-in-law clean up, wouldn't big brother wring his neck?

Huo Mei Shu also quickly echoed to help out. The siblings worked skillfully to take away the bowls and chopsticks and put them in the dishwasher. It looked like they were no strangers to doing this kind of thing.

Rong Dai was a little amused. Taking the chance while the two were in the kitchen, she gently pulled Huo Shao Ting's sleeve, "Don't keep a straight face, they are very nervous."

Huo Shao Ting looked down at her and raised his brow, "If I listen and do as told, what's the reward for me, wife?"

His implication made Rong Dai's cheeks flush red.

She hesitated for a few seconds, then tiptoed to kiss his cheek lightly, with her heart thumping wildly.

"Is this enough?" She glared at him indignantly.

Where did he pick this up?

The corner of Huo Shao Ting's mouth curved up in a smile, his voice light and soft as he answered her, "Still not enough, but seeing this kiss from my wife, I won't fuss over this matter with them."

Rong Dai was amused.

This guy obviously still couldn't find a way to step down from this himself, yet he spoke so proudly.

But as long as it could ease his relationship with the Huo family, she was willing to be his stairway down.

"Big brother, sister-in-law, you two rest early. We'll head back first."

Emerging from the kitchen, Huo ShaoJie still looked at the couple cautiously. Huo Mei Shu didn't even dare look at Huo Shao Ting.

"I'm returning to Shenjing tomorrow. Take good care of your sister-in-law."

Huo Shao Ting replied blandly to the two.

Although his tone was neither warm nor cold, it was enough to make Huo ShaoJie and Huo Mei Shu delighted! For big brother to say this meant he was no longer fussing over this matter!

"Big brother, don't worry. I will definitely take good care of sister-in-law!"

Huo Mei Shu answered resolutely.

Watching the siblings leave, Rong Dai looked at Huo Shao Ting helplessly.

Let it go, he still needed some time.

Being impatient would only make everyone feel awkward. It's better to take it slow.

"I'm going to handle company affairs. Go rest, I'll accompany you later."

Huo Shao Ting held her by the waist, his voice gentle and soft, a stark contrast from his coldness in front of the Huo family.

Rong Dai nodded, watching him head to the study. She took out her phone and snuggled into the sofa, covering herself with a small blanket. She added little sister-in-law and little brother-in-law into a group chat.

Shao Ting was coming around, but he needed time.

She also hoped the Huo family could give him that time. After all, he didn't become like this overnight.

Compared to big brother Huo Shao Ting, Huo ShaoJie and Huo Mei Shu's personalities were much more cheerful.

Seeing Rong Dai explain it this way, the two were very happy and also very grateful to her.

All these years, big brother had shielded them from the wind and rain outside so their big family could live safe and sound.

Now that big brother was adapting and changing, this was already something very worth celebrating for them.

Seeing the siblings' messages, a smile appeared at the corner of Rong Dai's mouth.

Actually, the Huo family were all very warm people.

Whether it was Shao Ting, old Madam, mother-in-law, little uncle and little auntie, they were all very warm.

And their warmth also melted her.

For this family, she was also willing to respond with her own warmth, to protect this family in her own way.

Everything she had now was bestowed upon her by fate. She would certainly cherish such extravagant fortune.

After chatting with the siblings, she finally had time to lurk on Weibo.

The hot search about her near drowning had died down, with other celebrity gossip now trending.

Searching, she could still find news about the incident.

She watched the video. She didn't expect the situation then to be so dangerous.

She sank to the bottom of the pond almost instantly without struggling at all.

No wonder the crew were so frightened.

No wonder Huo Shao Ting was so angry and anxious.

Even she, the person involved, now felt apprehensive watching it.

If it had been a few minutes later, she might have really drowned.

After all, she was unconscious for those few minutes.

But breathing wouldn't just stop.

The footage of Zhou Jing carrying her out of the pond was very clear. She now owed Zhou Jing a life-saving favor.

Rong Dai silently made a mental note of this.

When the news broke, her Weibo was overrun by netizens.

Some were worried for her, praying for her.

Of course there were also those cursing her.

"Why is it always news about this woman? So annoying!"

"This cheap sl*t should just die if she drowned! Looking at her is irritating!"

"Sold yourself into a rich family, just be a good rich wife! Still have to steal the limelight like this, serves you right that Heaven is punishing you!"

And so on with vicious comments.

Rong Dai only glanced over them, then deleted these comments one by one.

If she wasn't a transmigrated old soul who had seen far more sinister things in her previous life, these words could have crushed a young girl's psyche.

Some people would never know how sinful their own words and actions were.

Killing with words, such vicious diatribe could scar even the sunniest soul.

She was clearly the victim, yet she was the one being scolded and cursed.

The human heart could sometimes be so sinister.

After deleting those comments, she posted a message with a photo of her dining with the Huo siblings tonight—

I'm fine, thanks to everyone's care. Your warmth is the best nourishment for my growth. Thank you to those online who prayed and worried for me.

You are the warmest brazier in this cold winter. I hope your lives will be like that vigorous brazier, forever ardent and full of warmth.

I'm very sorry that because of me, some netizens feel disgusted.

I'm very sorry that this matter has soured your mood.

But a kind word warms three winters, while a vicious word wounds like six months of chill.

I know I'm still not good enough, I still have a long way to go.

If you like me, please just support me silently.

If you don't like me, please don't hurt me, just don't look.

Evil is not just in actions, but in the heart.

Thank you.

Just minutes after she posted, Qiao Wanzhou immediately commented and reposted.

Within half an hour, her post was reposted over a thousand times.

Rong Dai smiled and turned off her phone screen, getting up to make soothing tea for Huo Shao Ting in the kitchen.

She believed she would get better and better, and so would her relationship with Shao Ting.
