Mr. Fu, please stop being abusive. Madam has already signed the divorce papers.
Chapter 696 Bribery
"Apologize to Daddy and tell him you did something wrong."
Facing his mother's serious face, Huo Donglin felt wronged. He lowered his head sadly and said in a hoarse voice, "Dad, I was wrong."
After calming down a little, Huo Junshan realized what was going on.
Lin Jiamin has always known how to handle things. Having failed to get rid of Xue Jun last time, she will not act rashly again.
This time, it was most likely Huo Donglin's act on a whim.
"Okay, you guys go up first." Huo Junshan said.
Lin Jiamin was about to take Huo Donglin back upstairs when the door was suddenly pushed open.
Everyone turned around and saw Xue Jun carrying a few exquisite shopping bags with a happy smile on his face.
Xue Jun's smile froze when he met everyone's gaze. He looked around the living room in confusion, then looked at Huo Junshan and asked blankly, "What happened?"
Seeing Xue Jun's pretentious expression, Lin Jiamin snorted in her heart and took Huo Donglin upstairs.
Xue Jun must have done what happened today on purpose.
Bitch, she even doesn't spare the children.
Huo Junshan finally breathed a sigh of relief and grabbed her wrist, scolding her with a hint of doting in his tone: "What else are you talking about! Where have you been?! Why didn't you answer the phone?"
"Oh, my phone is out of battery and turned off. Luckily I brought cash with me, otherwise I would not be able to come back." Xue Jun smiled.
Huo Junshan looked at Butler Qiao helplessly and said, "Let them all come back."
"Yes."
"It's all gone."
After receiving the order, the servants lowered their heads and dispersed.
The telling maid hesitated for a moment, then stood there in the eye, not leaving.
Now that she has offended the lady, she will have no good days in the Huo family from now on.
Xue Jun then realized something, "Are you looking for me?"
"What do you say?"
"..."
Seeing Huo Junshan's unhappy face, Xue Jun handed the shopping bag to the maid, put her arms around Huo Junshan's arm, and said coquettishly, "Hubby, I was wrong. I shouldn't have gone out alone. I didn't pay attention to the battery level of my phone. I won't dare to do it next time!"
Huo Junshan's anger had almost subsided, but he frowned and said, "How dare you do it again?"
"Don't dare, don't dare."
"Hmph, wait and see how I punish you."
"Hubby... don't be like this... there are people here." Xue Jun shyly glanced at the maid next to her.
When Huo Junshan saw the maid, he thought of how she had just offended Lin Jiamin, so he said, "From now on, you will take care of Miss Xue and stay with her. I don't want to see anything like today again, understand?"
The maid's face lit up, and she lowered her head and said, "Yes, sir, I will stay with you and take good care of Miss Xue."
Huo Junshan helped Xue Jun upstairs and said, "Donglin said that he gave you all his pocket money? What's going on?"
"Oh..." Xue Jun took out a bank card from his pocket. "Here it is. The child feels sorry for his mother, but he is kind-hearted. Give me money and let me leave."
She stuffed the bank card into Huo Junshan's hand and said, "Give it back to him."
Huo Junshan snorted and stuffed the money back into Xue Jun's pocket. "There's not much money in here. Take it. I'll give it to him later. I want him to learn his lesson and not act impulsively."
"He's still young, what does he know?"
"Don't be so timid. Kids nowadays know much more."
"..."
At this time, Lin Jiamin came out of Huo Donglin's room, saw the two people going upstairs, and smiled, "I'm glad that Miss Xue is okay."
"It's all my fault. I made everyone worried." Xue Jun lowered his head and said ashamedly, "How about this, I will pay for their overtime pay out of my own pocket and let them eat well."
Lin Jiamin had long realized that Xue Jun was not a simple person, and she felt that even more so now.
Xue Jun's offer of compensation this time was intended to secretly bribe the Huo family's servants and subordinates.
If she didn't agree now, they would definitely hate her, but if she agreed, wouldn't she be allowing them to be won over by Xue Jun?
Admittedly, they will not be easily bought by petty gains, but they will have a good impression of Xue Jun.
Huo Junshan said, "Why is it necessary to do this? Isn't this what they should do?"
"That's different..."
"Okay, you don't have to pay for it yourself, I'll help you. By the way, there's a meal for you tonight."
"Really? You fished it?"
"Wow, hubby, you're amazing!"
Lin Jiamin: "..."
In Huo Donglin's room.
He lay alone on the bed, buried his face deeply in the pillow, his shoulders trembling slightly.
He didn't want to admit that he was crying, but the tears just couldn't stop flowing out.
Dad had never been so mean to him before, but it was because of that woman.
He did it for his mother's good, but his mother forced him to admit his mistake and blamed him for acting on his own.
Just then, there was a soft knock on the door.
"Get out!" Huo Donglin suddenly raised his head and yelled at the door.
There was a pause in the knocking, but it soon resumed, lighter than before, but more insistent.
Huo Donglin jumped off the bed in annoyance, rushed to the door barefoot, opened it violently, and was about to curse, but he saw that the person standing at the door was Xue Jun.
His face changed, and he turned his head away subconsciously, and said in a hard voice: "What are you doing here?"
She didn't leave, she just went out to buy something.
When he gave her the bank card and asked her to leave, she must have been laughing at him in her heart, asking how could he be so naive.
Xue Jun didn't wait for his invitation and walked straight into his room, closing the door gently.
She looked around, her eyes sweeping across the posters of basketball stars on the wall, the homework books spread out on the desk, and finally fell on his red eyes.
"Crying?" she asked softly.
"No!" Huo Donglin retorted immediately like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and at the same time reached out to push her, "Get out! This is my room!"
Xue Jun was not pushed by him. Instead, he took out a beautifully wrapped gift box from behind and handed it to him.
"I'm here to give you a gift. I just bought it. Do you like it?"
Huo Donglin was stunned, his eyes involuntarily fell on the box, and his eyes lit up.
That was the latest game console he had always dreamed of!
He once stood in front of the shopping mall window for a long time, but his mother was worried that it would affect his studies and never allowed him to buy anything.
There was a glimmer of desire in his eyes, but his expression quickly turned cold again.
"I don't want your things!" Huo Donglin refused firmly, but he couldn't help but glance at the box.
Xue Jun seemed not to hear his refusal. She stuffed the gift box into his arms and took out the bank card from her pocket - the "severance pay" he had given her before.
"I'll give this back to you too." Her tone was gentle, without any sarcasm.
Huo Donglin held the bank card in his hand, and suddenly an indescribable feeling surged in his heart.
He obviously hated her so much and even called her a "mistress", but not only was she not angry, she also bought him what he wanted most...
"You...you don't blame me?" He lowered his head, his voice muffled.
Xue Jun squatted down, looked him straight in the eyes, and reached out to gently rub his hair.
"No wonder, you're very kind." She smiled, "You just love your mother too much and don't want to make her sad, right?"
