The Substitute Madam Amazes the World Once More

The meal was finished amidst the laughter of the few of them. After the meal, a nanny and servant from the Huo family took the initiative to clean up the dining table. After Chen Man sent the few men away, she pulled Mo Zhu to the sofa in the main hall and drank tea as they chatted.

Seeing Chen Man excitedly telling her about the interesting things that had happened to Huo Xuan since he was young, Mo Zhu lowered her eyes, rubbed her palms slightly, and asked, "Auntie, I've been thinking about a question for a long time…"

Upon hearing the girl's words, Chen Man gently held Mo Zhu's hand and said softly, "Girl, what's there to be embarrassed about asking me? I've been there before and I have much more experience in life than you. If you have anything you don't understand, just let me know. I will definitely tell you everything I know!"

When Mo Zhu heard this, she looked up at Chen Man's sincere gaze and asked with a smile, "Auntie, why were you and Uncle able to live such a sweet life together for so long? The two of you have been together for so long and there's no benefit in your relationship. How did you maintain this relationship for so long?"

Seeing Mo Zhu mention Huo Tao, Chen Man tightened her grip on the girl's hand. The expression of a young lady in love instantly appeared on her face. She blushed and lowered her head slightly, starting to slowly tell Mo Zhu the story of how the two of them met.

"Although the family behind both your uncle and I can be considered noble families in Beijing, we met by chance back then. There were no family benefits or marriage connections involved. After so many years, he is still as sincere and considerate to me as when we first met. He trusts me and dotes on me. Between us, we have already transcended love and family, and we have become inseparable in this life!"

As Chen Man spoke, she felt a little emotional. She raised her hand and ruffled Mo Zhu's hair with emotion. She said softly, "Xiao Zhu, in terms of relationships, Xuan'er is like his father. When you and Xuan'er get married, he will always treat you well."

When Mo Zhu heard this, she was stunned for a moment. She lowered her head slightly and replied softly. Then, she pondered over the questions in her heart.

She had lived in this world for more than ten years since she was young, but she had never experienced the love and care Chen Man had mentioned.

In her previous understanding, there was only a simple and pure relationship of interests. Whoever needed her would treat her well. If others helped her, she would definitely return the favor.

In this world, only her grandmother was different. However, her grandmother was her only family, and the relationship between someone who is her family was different from the relationship with Huo Xuan.

And after so long, she had developed an indescribable feeling for Huo Xuan. Although this feeling was heavy in her heart, it often gave her a sweet feeling from time to time. Mo Zhu couldn't figure out why.

Seeing Mo Zhu's confused expression, Chen Man knew that the girl was someone who takes time to warm up to others. She held Mo Zhu's hand and gently rubbed the back of the girl's hand. She lowered her voice and continued, "Your uncle used to be a sincere, righteous, and energetic boy. When he was Xuan'er's age, his personality was completely different from Xuan'er's now!"

"I still remember that at that time, he brought me overseas to travel behind your grandfather's back. It was only because I casually said that my hobby was to see the beautiful scenery of the world." As Chen Man spoke, her gaze moved to the window, recalling her youth and her beautiful past.

"He even secretly wrote to me. He wrote me a letter every day, and the words he wrote made me feel the warmth of love."

Mo Zhu also looked up at Chen Man with a moved expression. As the woman spoke, her eyes were a little moist. She looked up at the dim street lamp outside the window and said softly, "You didn't expect it, did you? Your uncle looks so serious now. He used to be a young boy too."

After a pause, she retracted her gaze and held Mo Zhu's hand tightly. "Girl, after following your uncle for so many years, be it when the Huo family's business was booming or when we had no choice but to send Xuan'er to Cloud City to recuperate when he was sick, all of this is a symbol of our family living and sticking together. As long as we love each other, it's worth it. As long as it's worth it, we have no regrets."
