Chapter 184 Striving to Have a Little Girl Next Year

"Ah."

The two returned to their room, which was a one-bedroom, one-living room and one-study room, but it was very spacious and had a separate bathroom.

His computer was in the study, and the bookshelves were filled with a dazzling array of books. Wen Ci walked to the computer desk and looked at the large computer in front of him.

She was very curious and looked up to ask, "Where do I turn on the computer?"

Huo Jingyuan smiled indulgently, reached out and pressed the power button on the computer host, and the image gradually appeared on the thick LCD screen.

"How about we video chat with Auntie while we have this opportunity?"

"No!" Wen Ci shook her head frantically. "No!"

She has already met with two elders and doesn't want to video chat with her aunt who lives abroad for the time being, as she can't imagine how awkward the scene would be.

"Afraid of embarrassment?"

"No."

"That is?"

Wen Ci pursed her lips and sighed, "I'm shy about meeting online. Let's meet Aunt in person when we have the chance."

Huo Jingyuan didn't press the matter. He turned on his computer, logged into the webpage, and said slowly, "You can find out whatever you want to look up."

"Uh-huh."

Wen Ci nodded.

In the 1980s, most business owners who did international trade would buy a computer so they could check the differences in international exchange prices.

"Jingyuan, do you think Wen Yaozu can handle it?"

The computer was too expensive, and she worried that Wen Yaozu wouldn't study properly and would instead use it to play some single-player games.

Huo Jingyuan brought over a chair and sat down, saying seriously, "I think Yaozu is capable. He may like to have fun, but when he gets serious, he's a man of his word."

Since he promised to study hard, we should trust him.

"It can only be this way."

Huo Jingyuan thought about it carefully. Now that he was back in West Lake, he should also send a video call to his aunt who was abroad to let her know he was safe. His aunt would always find out about his injury through some means.

It's better to be honest than to keep it a secret.

“Aci, I’m planning to video call my aunt to let her know I’m safe. If you don’t want to be on camera, just sit next to me.”

"I should let you know I'm safe."

Immediately, Huo Jingyuan took the video camera out of the drawer and placed it on the computer screen. It was evening time in the United States at this time.

After two beeps, a young and beautiful face appeared on the screen. Huo Jingyuan obediently greeted, "Auntie, good evening."

The aunt in the video looked very surprised, and asked with a smile, "Jingyuan, why did you go back to the old house?"

Huo Jingyuan told the truth: "I was injured and am recuperating in the capital. I brought Aci back to see her grandparents."

"Are you injured? Is it serious?"

"See, I'm fine now, aren't I?"

As she spoke, Auntie remembered what Huo Jingyuan had said about bringing Aci back to see her grandparents. She looked around and asked, "Why don't I see Xiaoci?"

Huo Jingyuan laughed: "She's sitting next to me."

Wen Ci: "!"

She pinched Huo Jingyuan's hand hard, opened her mouth, and silently said, "Huo Jingyuan, you did this on purpose."

Huo Jingyuan gasped in pain and explained, "Aci is shy and embarrassed to see you. She said she'll see you during the New Year."

Watching the couple interact, the aunt couldn't help but smile with satisfaction, and jokingly asked, "When are you and Xiaoci planning to have a child?"

"Working on it."

Huo Jingyuan didn't shy away from the topic of children, grinning as he said, "I'll try to have a little girl next year."

"My little cotton-padded jacket is nice."

Wen Ci listened shyly from the side, reaching out to touch her lower abdomen. She and Huo Jingyuan had been trying for so long, but there was still no sign of pregnancy.
