After Marrying the Officer Chapter 1371 - 1370: Xia Chuyi’s Culinary Journey to Conquer

Though he couldn’t understand Emily’s words, little Huo Shiwu could comprehend her expressions.

Thus, Huo Shiwu looked at his father and then his mother, with an incredibly serious look on his little face, he shook his head and said, "NO."

Huo Shiqian slightly turned his body, allowing his son to avoid the woman’s hand, and said, "Sorry, Shi Wu is shy."

"Shi Wu?" Emily shrugged at the rejection but didn’t show much emotion, just blinking with so confusion, "Do you... have 15 children?"

Xia Chuyi, Huo Shiqian: ...

"No." Xia Chuyi shook her head and said, "Shi Wu is his nickna, his given na is Huo Lixing."

Upon hearing this, Emily attempted to pronounce "Huo Lixing": "Huō Lìqíng? Kuò ní xǐng? Hé lǐ jīn?"

Xia Chuyi: ...

"Ahem, you can just call him Shi Wu," Xia Chuyi suggested to Emily.

"OK!" Emily finally gave in.

At this mont, Rayne also formally greeted Huo Shiqian.

Then he said to William, "Councilman William, the delegation from Z country is an important guest of our Bao Family."

"I hope that what happened earlier won’t happen again." Rayne said coldly.

"Yes, it absolutely won’t happen again," Councilman William quickly replied, "I will definitely help Mr. Rhen in organizing well for Mr. Huo and his group!"

"I’ve already instructed to give Z country’s venue a relatively good location, so when they achieve a good ranking..."

Councilman William kept showing his loyalty with a smiling face.

Upon hearing Councilman William’s words, Rayne barely nodded his head.

"Huo, if there’s anything else you need help with, please let know," Rayne then said to Huo Shiqian, "If there’s anything regarding the contest you need help with, I’ll do my best to assist."

When saying this, Rayne’s eyes held a deeper aning.

He was implying that if Huo Shiqian needed it, Rayne could privately do sothing.

However, upon hearing this, Huo Shiqian calmly shook his head and said, "Thank you, but it’s not necessary."

"I believe in my wife’s culinary skills, she will win the contest as long as..."

At this point, Huo Shiqian paused slightly, speaking with deep aning, "As long as the contest is completely fair and just."

The implication being, as long as no one manipulates things behind the scenes, they’ll surely win.

Being sensible, Rayne understood Huo Shiqian’s aning.

"I understand." Rayne solemnly nodded and said, "I’ll pay extra attention to this matter."

"Thank you." With these words, Huo Shiqian nodded slightly.

After discussing so important matters about the contest, Rayne and his group took their leave.

Before leaving, Emily gave Xia Chuyi a big hug before following Rayne away.

After Rayne and the others left, out of the blue, little Huo Shiwu reached his hand out to his mother, wanting Xia Chuyi to hold him.

Picking up her son, Xia Chuyi asked, "What’s the matter? Hungry?"

With his little face very serious, Huo Shiwu hugged Xia Chuyi’s neck possessively and said, "Mine!"

"Hmm?" Xia Chuyi didn’t imdiately understand.

Beside her, Huo Shiqian slightly shook his head, a hint of amusent in his eyes, and said, "Shiwu ans your embrace is his, he doesn’t care for Emily’s enthusiasm."

Xia Chuyi: ...
