Chapter 181: Chapter 181: She Cares A Lot About Ceremonial Sense
Lin Qi gave the Nanny some money before she left, asking her to buy some tasty food and new clothes for Lili, as Lili was too skinny and dressed in tattered clothes.
As for the adoption, she would consider it more carefully!
…
In the evening.
After Lin Qi put Han and Momo to sleep, she just entered the study when Huo Tingdong was on a phone call.
She waited for him to finish, then walked over, “Is it work-related?”
Huo Tingdong replied, “No.”
Lin Qi asked, “Then what is it…?” Who could he be calling so late?
Huo Tingdong said, “My father.”
Lin Qi was somewhat surprised, “I heard from your grandmother that your father has been abroad for many years.”
Huo Tingdong stated, “I have another career abroad, and there’s little contact between us.”
Lin Qi slightly frowned, suddenly realizing that she didn’t know much about Huo Tingdong.
It seemed there was some estrangement between him and his father, not very close.
Seeing her unusual expression, Huo Tingdong asked, “What’s wrong?”
Lin Qi asked, “Is your relationship with your dad not good?”
Huo Tingdong was stunned.
He laughed, “Since I can remember, he has always been busy. After my mother passed away, he remarried and had his own family and career overseas.”
Pausing, Huo Tingdong continued, “This time I called him just hoping he could come back for a while, as I want you to meet him.”
Lin Qi was momentarily stunned.
She suddenly became nervous, “Meet… the parents?”
“Yes,” Huo Tingdong said, “Lin Qi, when I said I wanted to remarry with you, I was serious. What about you, what do you think?”
Lin Qi muttered, “I… I…”
She was willing.
After all they’d been through, she had sensed her feelings for Huo Tingdong, but she was concerned about appearing too eager by immediately agreeing, feeling like it made her seem too forward.
She was a very delicate person who often felt insecure.
In her eyes, Huo Tingdong was an exceptional man, and frankly, she felt like he was like the wind, hard to grasp.
Was his proposal for remarriage impulsively made or after careful consideration?
Seeing her hesitation, Huo Tingdong suddenly looked tense, “You don’t want to?”
Lin Qi said, “It feels too sudden, like there’s no process to it.”
She explained, “Other people date for years before they get married, we haven’t even dated once, and you want to remarry without even a proposal ceremony, it feels… too hasty!”
It felt like they were an old married couple.
But her romantic experience was a blank slate, except for a youthful crush in university, she hadn’t even held hands or dated a boy.
His talk of remarriage, wouldn’t it just skip straight to getting a marriage certificate without any ceremony?
That would be regretful, and she’d feel that Huo Tingdong wanted to remarry with her mostly for Han, not entirely for her.
She couldn’t help but overthink, feeling restless.
Since childhood, she was someone who greatly lacked a sense of security; she needed to feel a lot of love to be sure that this man truly loved her.
Yet Huo Tingdong was such a reserved person, always straightforward in his approach to outcomes.
Hearing this, Huo Tingdong suddenly laughed, “It’s my oversight for not giving you a sense of ceremony.”
Lin Qi said, “I actually care a lot about the ceremonial aspect!”
Huo Tingdong said, “So, you don’t refuse to remarry me, you just wish for a beautiful process before remarriage?”
Lin Qi nodded.
She looked up at him, “But, you’re so busy, surely you can’t make time to date me, right?”
Huo Tingdong said, “I don’t know how to date, you teach me.”
Lin Qi was bemused by his remark, “You don’t even know how to date! Dating should be much simpler than marriage.”
Huo Tingdong raised an eyebrow, “How is it simpler?”
Lin Qi explained, “Dating is different from marriage. In dating, you don’t need to take responsibilities like in a marriage, for the partner, for the family…” She wasn’t sure if Huo Tingdong was serious or just teasing her.
If he was serious, he really had no clue!
Lin Qi suggested, “Huo Tingdong, before making me your wife, maybe you should first make me agree to be your girlfriend.”
Smiling, she narrowed her eyes.
Huo Tingdong asked, “Would you be willing to be my girlfriend?”
Lin Qi responded, “Depends on how you perform!”
Saying so, she placed her hands behind her back and said to Huo Tingdong, “Get some rest early, I’m going back to my room.”
Lin Qi left the room.
Huo Tingdong’s eyebrows slightly furrowed.
He sat down at the desk, deep in thought.
He was a goal-oriented personality, once he set a goal, he pursued it at all costs.
Previously, his goal was to remarry Lin Qi, thus he focused on “remarriage”, neglecting the process.
Dating…
He really hadn’t studied this topic carefully.

The next day.
At Huace Group.
Just as Mo Ke entered the office, he saw Huo Tingdong engrossed in a book titled “Love Guide.”
Mo Ke was shocked!
“Mr. Huo?”
Huo Tingdong snapped out of it, closed the book with one hand, and looked at him, “What?”
Mo Ke cautiously pointed at the book in his hand, “Why are you suddenly reading this kind of book?”
He had seen Huo Tingdong seriously studying it, even more earnestly than when he looked at stocks.
Huo Tingdong asked, “What’s wrong with this book?”
Mo Ke said, “No, it’s just like discovering a new continent.”
He came over and placed the project table on the desk, but Huo Tingdong suddenly asked, “Have you had a girlfriend?”
Mo Ke hesitated, “I had…”
Huo Tingdong asked, “I’ve never seen your girlfriend, did you break up?”
The boss suddenly caring about his subordinate’s love life.
With a lot of curiosity, Mo Ke still answered first, “Yes, we broke up.”
Huo Tingdong further asked, “Why did you break up?”
Mo Ke replied, “It just didn’t work out, so we broke up. Boss, why are you suddenly asking about my romantic past?”
Huo Tingdong asked, “How did you pursue your girlfriend?”
Mo Ke hesitated, “I’m handsome, I confessed first, and she agreed immediately.”
Huo Tingdong asked, “How did you confess?”
Mo Ke replied, “I said to her, ‘I like you, will you be my girlfriend?’ and she nodded in agreement.”
Huo Tingdong had no comments; the answer had no reference value.
Now it was Mo Ke’s turn to ask, “Boss, are you asking these questions because you want to refer to my experience for your own love life?”
Huo Tingdong candidly admitted, “Yes.”
Mo Ke further inquired, “What’s the progress between you and Miss Lin?”
Huo Tingdong evaluated, “What do you think our progress is?”
Mo Ke said, “It’s hard to say. The relationship between you and Miss Lin is complicated. You had a marriage, a child, but your marriage ended without issues, now are you wanting to remarry Miss Lin?”
