After Marrying the Officer Chapter 1367 - 1366: Xia Chuyi’s Culinary Journey to Conquer the World (Extra 5)
Previously on After Marrying the Officer...
"Mr. Huo’s son doesn’t speak English, he misunderstood your words!" Councilman William gritted his teeth as he spoke, "So, surely you are mistaken, it’s you who are mistaken!"
Upon hearing William’s words, the golden retriever paused, then quickly echoed, "Yes, yes, it’s me who got it wrong, it’s me who got it wrong!"
In response, Councilman William continued, "Mr. Huo, Mrs. Huo, your son is young, just a child, it’s possible he remembered some words incorrectly."
"Therefore, I hope Mr. Huo and Mrs. Huo don’t easily believe a child’s words," Councilman William said, "After all, some words, even if heard slightly wrong, can lead to a major misunderstanding."
"Now, with the food festival ahead, whether it’s the United States or Z-Country, I believe everyone wishes to avoid unnecessary issues?" Councilman William forced a fake smile, unwilling to admit that what Huo Shiwu learned was indeed what the golden retriever’s father said.
These words were spoken by Councilman William in the Z-Country language.
So, upon hearing it, little Huo Shiwu’s originally tense face flushed with anger as he glared at Councilman William.
"I’m not a child!" Huo Shiwu held up three fingers and angrily shouted, "I’ve grown up, I’m a man, three years old!"
Huo Shiwu’s reaction left Councilman William momentarily stunned.
What? Three years old, a man?
Councilman William felt as if he was hearing things.
Meanwhile, Huo Shiqian gently patted his son.
"Yes, you’ve grown up, you’re not a child anymore, you’re a man," Huo Shiqian said evenly, aligning with his son’s words, "A man must be responsible for his words."
"Yes, responsible!" With his father’s support, Huo Shiwu puffed out his little chest and nodded emphatically, "A man, responsible!"
Councilman William: ...Is this how Z-Country fathers and sons speak?
Not all of them.
Xia Chuyi glanced at her husband and son.
When she was pregnant with Huo Shiwu, worried about the effects of poisoning on the child, which might affect future brain development, she consumed a lot of Medicinal Food claimed to repair the fetus’s brain and body.
This supplementing seems to have gone overboard.
This kid was incredibly smart from birth, almost possessing innate abilities to remember everything he saw and heard.
His logical and language skills far exceed those of average children, and his physical condition is exceptionally good.
Moreover, Huo Shiwu, being the only little darling in both the Huo Family and Ou Family, was showered with endless love, rarely experiencing any feeling of grievance.
Therefore, that the child now feels wronged, for father Huo Shiqian, naturally he has to protect his son.
Thus, at this moment, Huo Shiqian suddenly said to Councilman William, "Councilman William, if you think my son heard wrong... then me, did my ears also hear wrong?"
These words were spoken by Huo Shiqian in English.
"You you you..." William was flabbergasted, "Mr. Huo, you... speak English?"
If he could speak, why didn’t he show it before!
Councilman William felt like he was about to evaporate—sweat steaming.
"Councilman William, I recall never saying that I couldn’t speak English, right?" Huo Shiqian said even more calmly.
This implies that Councilman William made the wrong assumption, unrelated to Huo Shiqian.
