The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 478: You can Call her Aunt.



Chapter 478

Not long after Lu Nianzhi left, Huo Shao Ting came back.

"My dear, what's wrong?"

Huo Shao Ting looked nervous. As soon as he came in, he pulled Rong Dai into his arms.

Rong Dai's eyes immediately turned red. Her hands were as cold as ice cubes, clutching his clothes tightly.

"Shao Ting, I..."

Huo Shao Ting's breathing quickened slightly. His eyes looked fierce as he signaled his assistant to leave.

After Rong Dai calmed down, he gently wiped away her tears. "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

"If you're uncomfortable here, I'll take you back first. I'll get to the bottom of this."

Seeing the fear in her eyes, Huo Shao Ting's heart ached. He kissed her forehead lightly.

Rong Dai shook her head, suppressing the fear in her heart. "No, I want to go see it myself."

She looked Huo Shao Ting in the eye, glancing at the village outside. She told him about the dizziness she felt earlier.

"The buildings and clothing here are exactly the same as the Shangyuan Empire."

"But I've searched all the history books and there's not a single word about the Shangyuan Empire."

"I thought the Shangyuan didn't exist in history, but now this..."

She spoke hurriedly, with panic in her tone.

Such coincidences don't happen in this world. With everything here being exactly the same as Shangyuan, she couldn't help but think further.

"Don't worry, I'll get to the bottom of this."

Huo Shao Ting held her in his arms, murmuring into her hair.

He had seen her design drafts and the costumes of the drama crew. Although some details were changed, when he first came to the village three days ago, he noticed it.

Rong Dai didn't speak, just leaning against him. It seemed that only this way would her fear be alleviated.

"After you finish shooting, we'll go into the mountains to take a look, okay?"

Huo Shao Ting kept kissing her, trying to comfort her and make her feel safe. He could feel Rong Dai's trembling body.

Rong Dai hoarsely murmured in agreement. Under Huo Shao Ting’s consolation, her emotions gradually calmed down.

Because of her emotions, Huo Shao Ting didn't go anywhere all day, just staying by her side, holding her hand as they wandered around the village.

"Uncle Huo, do you want to play ball with us?"

As they passed the school, some children were playing ball on the court. Seeing the couple, they immediately ran over excitedly to ask.

The children in the village were quite enthusiastic and lively. They surrounded the couple all at once.

Rong Dai felt apprehensive about the village. Although she usually loved children, her whole body tensed up and her smile became rather stiff.

"Don't be afraid, I'm by your side no matter what." Sensing her unease, Huo Shao Ting squeezed her hand tighter, his gaze fixed on her.

"Uncle Huo, is this pretty lady your auntie?"

One child asked curiously. Sweaty and red-faced, they stared brightly at Rong Dai, obviously very fond of her.

"Yes, she's my wife. You can call her Auntie."

Unlike his usual coldness at the company, Huo Shao Ting became exceptionally gentle.

He glanced at Rong Dai, then smiled at the children, "But Auntie is very young. It'd make her happier if you call her Sister Rong."

"Really?"

Children are innocent and lively, not as complicated as adults.

Hearing Huo Shao Ting say this, the children surrounding Rong Dai immediately chatter away calling her "Sister Rong".

Rong Dai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Feeling the children's liveliness and innocence, she also relaxed.

"Sister Rong, Uncle Huo is so good at playing ball! Can you ask him to teach us?"

One child held her hand coquettishly.

Rong Dai smiled gently at Huo Shao Ting, "Mr. Huo, would you be willing to oblige them?"

"How could I not comply with my wife's request?"

Huo Shao Ting played along, taking off his suit jacket and handing it to her. The delighted children cheered, surrounding the couple to the court.
