After Marrying the Officer Chapter 1374 - 1373: Xia Chuyi’s Culinary Journey Around the World

Both Xia Chuyi and Huo Shiqian made an appearance, and after some deliberation, they made the decision to bring their son along with them. Xia Chuyi inquired about taking some time off to have their son evaluated at a reputable institution, as she was concerned that his exceptional intelligence might be impacting his health. After all, intense emotions tend to fade quickly, and excessive wisdom can be detrimental. A child who is too clever, Xia Chuyi felt a twinge of apprehension.

"Come now, my little worrier, Mommy is taking you for a bath." Having concluded her phone conversation with the Capital City, Xia Chuyi lifted her son into her arms and proceeded to the bathroom. The young boy, Huo Shiwu, is remarkably well-behaved in his daily life, requiring very little intervention from the adults. After bathing Huo Shiwu and tucking him into bed, the boy was already succumbing to drowsiness.

It's worth mentioning that when they first brought Huo Shiwu to the United States, Xia Chuyi harbored concerns that her son might struggle with sleep due to the significant time difference. To her surprise, by the second day in America, young Huo Shiwu had already acclimatized wonderfully. She, conversely, had not adapted as swiftly as her son had.

Once her son had drifted off to sleep, Xia Chuyi gazed at his rounded cheeks and leaned in to plant a kiss on Huo Shiwu. "This little rascal is quite adorable when he's asleep!" Xia Chuyi murmured, "It's just when he's awake, that little mind of his, it's simply too brilliant for a normal human." Xia Chuyi examined her son from various angles, sighing, "It's all because we provided him with too many nutritional supplements, transforming him into a little prodigy."

A little prodigy? Hearing his wife’s observation, Huo Shiqian couldn't help but chuckle. He reached out and flicked Xia Chuyi's forehead, teasing, "If Shiwu is a little prodigy, then what does that make us?" What did that make them? Naturally, they were the seasoned veterans. She was an old soul who had lived through two lifetimes. As for Huo Shiqian... Xia Chuyi cast a glance at her husband and mused: He was also a significant figure in this world.

In either his past or present existence, this man had systematically ascended to positions of power, becoming a notable individual eventually shielded from public discourse due to the sensitive nature of his political affiliations online. Considering this, bringing him along felt rather comforting. If the entire family consisted of "prodigies," then no one would hold any judgment against the others.

"Son, you must grow up healthy and safe." Xia Chuyi bestowed another kiss upon her son. "He will," Huo Shiqian affirmed, "He absolutely will." In contrast to Xia Chuyi's anxieties, Huo Shiqian possessed considerable confidence in their offspring. Being excessively intelligent was not an insurmountable issue, he believed. There had always been brilliant individuals in the world.

"Sleep now." Huo Shiqian embraced his wife, kissed her brow, and said, "Tomorrow, the delegations from all the countries will be arriving, and the host nation will be arranging a pre-conference camaraderie event. You'll be quite occupied." Due to the lingering effects of jet lag, Xia Chuyi hadn't initially felt very sleepy. However, after Huo Shiqian's words and witnessing her son's peaceful slumber, Xia Chuyi let out a yawn, responded with a soft "Mmm," and then closed her eyes, gradually drifting into sleep.

Observing both his wife and son peacefully asleep, Huo Shiqian's lips curled into a gentle smile. "Good night, my entire world," Huo Shiqian whispered to his wife and son, before closing his own eyes to rest. The following day, the family awoke and proceeded to the dining hall for breakfast. The delegations from various nations were not all arriving in the United States on the same day, but today marked the final day for delegations to check in.

This meant that even the last arriving delegation would be present today. As Xia Chuyi and her family made their way to breakfast, they happened to encounter the newly arrived delegation – the delegation from Korea.
