Chapter 178: Chapter 178: A Grim Task
Momo: “Rule number six, all household chores included! When I lived with my Mommy, I couldn’t bear to let her clean. She can’t cook, so you’ll have to learn. When Mommy gets hungry, you have to cook for her, and it has to be delicious, not awful. You must know how to do laundry, sweep and mop the floor…”
Huo Tingdong: “…Anything else?”
Momo began to prattle on: “Rule number seven, Mommy is the most beautiful woman in the world—this is the first realization for marrying my Mommy. Whatever Mommy likes, you need to proactively understand, and you also need to know well what Mommy dislikes.”
Huo Tingdong’s expression changed.
Goodness, is this some kind of manhood scripture?
Huo Tingdong braced himself and listened to Momo reciting the twenty-something conditions like reading from a book, and finally, he couldn’t resist saying, “I can meet all these conditions you’re talking about.”
Momo looked skeptical and raised his eyebrows, indicating disbelief: “I don’t believe it.”
Huo Tingdong said, “Why not?”
Lin Qi massaged her forehead. She didn’t know what Huo Tingdong was thinking; she always felt that the conditions Momo proposed were a bit harsh.
She said, “Momo, these conditions are too high.”

But Momo was relentless: “I can meet all these conditions I mentioned; if he truly intends to marry you, why wouldn’t he be able to?”
That left one without a response.
Huo Tingdong said, “I’m mentally prepared.”
Momo asked, “Really? Are you ready for my official interview then?”
Huo Tingdong was stunned: “There’s a test involved?”
Momo declared, “Of course! Civil servants have to pass an exam, and to marry my Mommy and get a formal position, you need to pass the test too.”
Saying so, he dug out a piece of paper from nowhere, sat down facing Huo Tingdong with a serious demeanor, looking somewhat like a junior interviewer!
He asked, “If you’re ready, let’s begin.”
Huo Tingdong, feeling resigned, said, “Alright, exam me.”
Momo stressed, “There are ten questions in total, for a total of 100 points, 60 points to pass. But I think with your expectations for yourself, you’ll definitely aim for a perfect score, right?”
Huo Tingdong responded, “Bring it on.”
Momo threw out the first question directly: “Please rate my Mommy’s beauty on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the highest. How beautiful is my Mommy?”
Huo Tingdong almost without hesitation said, “10 points.”
“Wrong!” Momo narrowed his eyes without mercy, deducting a point on the “exam paper”.
Huo Tingdong didn’t understand, “What’s wrong with my answer?”
Momo looked at Han.
Han stepped forward and said emphatically, “100 points!”
Huo Tingdong: “…”
Lin Qi was simply dumbfounded.
Huo Tingdong said, “That question doesn’t count. You didn’t say the perfect score was 100 points.”
Momo retorted, “I also didn’t say the perfect score was 10 points, did I?”
Huo Tingdong: “…”
Momo innocently turned to Han and earnestly asked, “Mommy’s beauty is worth 100 points, even Han knows it.”
Han nodded vigorously, emphasizing again, “Mommy is the most beautiful in the world!”
Huo Tingdong said, “Next question.” He was actually quite interested in Momo’s questions.
He wondered, this cunning little guy, what kind of tricky questions could he come up with?
Momo then said, “Question number two. One day, a pregnant woman comes to you claiming that you have to take responsibility for the child in her belly. How would you handle it?”
Huo Tingdong said, “Abort it.”
Momo made a sound, “Hm, wrong. Deduct 1 point.”
Han mumbled from the side, “Why… would Daddy let another woman have a baby?”
Momo answered, “There is only one correct answer: such a situation is impossible.”
Huo Tingdong: “…”
Momo threw out the third question: “On Valentine’s Day, you receive a WeChat message from a female secretary saying she needs to work overtime at the office. Tell me, do you spend Valentine’s Day with Mommy or go to work?”
Huo Tingdong said, “Spend Valentine’s Day with your Mommy.”
Momo showed a more disappointed expression, “Wrong, deduct 1 point. Why would you have a female secretary in your WeChat contacts at all, tsk tsk…”
Huo Tingdong: “…”, realizing that all the questions Momo asked were highly misleading, all traps.
Momo asked again, “Question four. Who is more beautiful, your ex-girlfriend or Mommy?”
Huo Tingdong answered, “I don’t have an ex-girlfriend.”
Momo revealed a surprised look, gossiping for a moment, “Really? You really don’t have any ex-girlfriends?”
Huo Tingdong remarked, “I never lie, and I disdain to do so.”
Only then did Momo show a satisfied expression and asked, “Question five. One day when you are shopping with Mommy, you pass by a beautiful woman with a good figure. If Mommy asks you who is prettier, her or that beautiful lady, how would you respond?”
Huo Tingdong appeared baffled, “What woman? I didn’t see any.”
Momo nodded in approval.
Lin Qi was struggling to hold back her laughter from the side.
Why did Momo have to put forth such an earnest expression for these kind of interview questions?
And Huo Tingdong was answering so seriously, truly a father and son pair.
“The last question!”
Momo elegantly supported his cheek with one hand and asked, “You have ten seconds. Please explain the cooking method for ‘Red Braised Pork Ribs’?”
Huo Tingdong, who never cooked, was blank: “…”, his brain was just empty.
Momo disdainfully said, “Mommy’s favorite dish is Red Braised Pork Ribs, and you don’t even know this, you don’t understand my Mommy enough, unfortunately, you didn’t pass my interview, please try harder next time.”
As he spoke, he earnestly gave Huo Tingdong the scoring sheet.
Huo Tingdong took it and glanced at it, “50 points”.
He answered seven questions correctly, so why just 50 points?
Upon closer inspection, Huo Tingdong saw that the last question actually deducted 30 points.
Huo Tingdong blankly said, “Why did the last question deduct so many points?”
Momo looked inexplicably, “I didn’t say every question was out of 10, right? I just said out of 100 points total, 60 to pass, any problem with that?”
Lin Qi could no longer hold back, she burst into laughter holding her stomach, “Hahaha!”
Momo was too cute.
Yet Momo looked innocently, “Mommy, what are you laughing at?”
Lin Qi, rubbing the tears from laughing, said, “I just think, if every man who pursues Mommy had to pass your test first, would Mommy ever get married?”
Momo looked wronged, “Mommy, is it wrong for me to strictly guard and let you marry a good man? What if you make a mistake, end up with someone bad, better not to marry at all then.”
Han nodded like a little echo, “Hmm! Better not marry.”
Huo Tingdong couldn’t help but pinch his face, “Whose side are you on?”
Han resisted, whimpering and shoving him, hiding behind Momo, his stance clear.
Lin Qi held back her laughter.
This trio made for quite the scene of “father’s kindness and son’s filial piety”.
