It is said that Huo Yiquan's offending against Ye Mingqian later reached the ears of the fiery-tempered Mr. Huo. The free-spirited Mr. Huo was grounded and his pocket money was confiscated.
He was not released until the eve of Chi Yanchen and Shu Qiaoqiao's engagement party.
"Why don't you just get engaged, it's not a marriage? Call me back." It's nice to be abroad, with money and leisure, but Huo Junyi can't care about him, not to mention how happy he is.
Today is a big day for the Huo family and the Shu family. Not only the wealthy families and business giants across the country, but also hundreds of invited media broadcast the entire event live.
"snort."
Chi Yanchen passed by Huo Yiquan with a cold face.
"Did you offend him?" Huo Yian asked gossiping.
Huo Yiquan rolled his eyes and said, "What a shame. This is the first time we've met each other since we came back."
Not seeing someone else's family for one day is like three autumns. When he returned home, not only did his father not love his mother, but his cousin Chi Yanchen also had a stinky face towards him. Wasn't he talking about him and the young man with two children? Are you at odds with your little mom? When he came back, he helped Chi Yanchen trouble Ye Mingqian. Didn't he deserve a reward?
I haven’t been back for a few years and I still don’t understand the human affairs in the country.
Since it was just an engagement, the two families just went to the hotel to get together. As Chi Yanchen's cousins, the Huo Yian brothers had to help entertain the guests.
The male host, Chi Yanchen, hid directly in the lounge at the back, leaving the two Huo brothers to attend to the reception.
His actions made Shu Mingyuan's face turn green with anger.
"Young man, this is a life-long event. I'm too nervous. I didn't sleep last night. I can't let the guests see the dark circles. I'll drive him in to catch up on his sleep first."
Huo Xiu'an patted Shu Mingyuan's shoulder in an old-fashioned way, "Don't let people laugh in front of the guests."
"You also know you're a joke."
Huo Junyi pushed his second brother aside, blew his beard and glared, "My little girl is shy and doesn't see visitors. Why is Achen, a grown man, hiding in there? Aquan, go and call your brother out."
"I dont go."
Huo Yiquan jumped three feet and hid far away.
Huo Junyi was so angry that his teeth itched, but he couldn't take action in front of many distinguished guests and media, so he could only leave the unreliable Huo Xiu'an and his son Huo Yiquan behind and hurried to find Chi Yanchen.
However, Chi Yanchen was not in his own room.
He came to the room next door to Shu Qiaoqiao's lounge, hung up a sign saying "Staff Operation Room, No Others Allowed", and ducked into the room.
Ye Mingqian has been waiting inside for a long time.
"You don't have to go to the front to say hello?" She was surprised by the man's arrival.
"We haven't all arrived yet, so don't be in a hurry." Chi Yanchen was unhurried. He was wearing a high-waisted gown today, which further elongated his height and slenderness, and made him as straight as a pine tree.
"Did you hear anything useful?" He sat down next to Ye Mingqian. There was a pot of green plants on the small table between the two of them, and Shu Qiaoqiao's voice came from inside.
"Jiajia, do you think it's better to wear this necklace or the one on the table?" Shu Qiaoqiao asked expectantly.
"Everything is the same."
The little boy's voice was full of impatience.
"It's Shu Qiaoqiao and her brother Shu Jiashan."
Ye Mingqian lowered her voice, "Shu Qiaoqiao has been just picking out dresses and jewelry. She didn't say anything else, not even Mr. Shu's name."
"Shu Jiashan, speak well to your sister. If you want to gain a foothold in the Shu family, you two must unite." A third unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded in the next room. It was a man speaking, and his voice was very low. , the tone carries an irresistible sense of command.
"Shut up, what qualifications does a little bastard have to teach me a lesson?" Shu Jiashan's voice was sharp.
"Get out of the Shu family if you don't want to follow Mr. Shu's arrangements." This man is obviously not afraid of Shu Jiashan, the future leader of the Shu family. Who is he?
Ye Mingqian and Chi Yanchen looked at each other and saw doubts in each other's eyes.
"I don't believe that grandpa would send you, an unidentified bastard, to teach me how to do things. When my sister and Chi Yanchen's engagement party is over, I'm going to find grandpa to find out when our Shu family will let an outsider tell me what to do."
"Jiajia, you are not allowed to say that Mr. Wu is an outsider. He is the person designated by grandpa to help us." Shu Qiaoqiao seemed to be angry, and she heard the sound of her putting the jewelry on the table.
"What can we expect from him? It's better to count on Chi Yanchen to be honest. He is the next heir to the Huo family. Once you marry him, sister, the other bastards in the Shu family will not be able to defeat us."
"Mr. Wu has the Huo family..."
"Shu Qiaoqiao!"
A man surnamed Wu interrupted Shu Qiaoqiao with a loud shout. The latter realized that he had said something wrong and left the sentence behind to go to the front hall and leave the lounge in a hurry.
What follows is Shu Jiashan's accusations about Wu's attitude, and there is basically no useful information.
Ye Mingqian plucked the hearing device from the green plant and threw it into the bag.
"I'll ask someone to check if anyone with the surname Wu has been in and out of the Shu family recently." Chi Yanchen raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It was almost time to leave.
"good."
Ye Mingqian also wanted to know who this person named Wu was. Judging from the information he just heard, this person must know a lot about the Huo family and the Shu family.
She waited for Chi Yanchen to leave for five or six minutes before opening the door, taking off the sign and throwing it into the trash can, then secretly walked towards her own lounge.
By coincidence, only about ten meters away from the lounge, two gorgeously dressed ladies were competing for beauty.
"You are mediocre in appearance. You only married Chi Yanchen because the Shu family was a lackey of the Huo family. The Huo family took pity on you and gave you a loyal bone."
Although it is true, the criticism is so unpleasant.
Ye Mingqian leaned against the wall and listened silently.
"Wei Shishi, are you out of your mind to try to improve your appearance with your artificial face? Besides, Brother Chen likes my face. You have the ability to do it, but it's a pity. No matter how beautiful you are, Chen Brother will never look at you again, after all, the person engaged to him is me, our Shu family."
Wei Shishi was furious, "Don't be too proud, you are just a marriage tool. I think Mr. Chi would rather quarrel with his beautiful little mother than waste time on you."
How did it get involved with her?
The corners of Ye Mingqian's mouth twitched, feeling that he couldn't let go of the opportunity to gain favor in front of Shu Qiaoqiao.
"Then don't bother Miss Laowei. Our Qiao Qiao will definitely be doted on by A Chen and become his darling in the Huo family."
She suddenly appeared from the corner, startling the two of them.
"Sister Ye."
Shu Qiaoqiao ran over with her skirt in surprise and took Ye Mingqian's arm affectionately, "I knew you would like me."
"Ye Mingqian." Thinking that Ye Mingqian heard the conversation just now, Wei Shishi looked ugly.
"I am." Ye Ming smiled modestly, wearing a curve-hugging close-fitting evening dress and luxurious diamond jewelry. The whole body was elegant and noble, making Shu Qiaoqiao next to him even more beautiful.
"Ms. Wei, I remember that your father is the manager of Huo Group's food subsidiary. His family does not seem to be on the invitation list."
