Huo Shirui had been in a bad mood these past two days. She didn't feel well anywhere. She didn't even go to school. She just stayed at home and waited for others.
Pei Haizhu didn't tolerate her.
Looking at Huo Shirui, who was paralyzed on the sofa, Pei Haizhu still looked calm: "How long do you plan to eat and wait until death?"
"mom!"
Huo Shirui was unhappy when he heard this.
She pulled the pillow on one side and hugged it in her arms, sat cross-legged on the sofa, and said angrily, "I'm in a bad mood and don't want to go to school."
"I'm in a bad mood too and want to beat you up."
Pei Haizhu's calm voice made Huo Shirui freeze.
She looked at Pei Haizhu in disbelief: "Why did you beat me when you were in a bad mood?"
After asking, under Pei Haizhu's cold gaze, she curled her lips in grievance, "Ning Huanhuan, that little bitch——"
"speak nicely."
Pei Haizhu sat aside and asked the servant to make black tea.
Huo Shirui elaborated on how he and Ning Zicheng met Ning Huanhuan in the mall.
Pei Haizhu sipped tea quietly.
After receiving no feedback, Huo Shirui was unhappy again, "Mom, did you hear me?!"
Only then did Pei Haizhu put down the delicate cup in his hand.
"Settle down."
Her dark brown eyes looked at Huo Shirui calmly, "The Huoning family has a harmonious relationship now, and Ning Yuanting and your second brother are also familiar with each other. When fighting a dog, it depends on the owner and how to position yourself correctly. "
Huo Shirui's expression suddenly changed: "He is not my second brother!"
Pei Haizhu shot her with a cold knife. Huo Shirui immediately shut up, paused, and then asked, "Are you really going to marry Shi Qian to that unlucky guy Yan Ce?"
"Huo Shirui."
Pei Haizhu called her by her first and last name.
A flash of reluctance flashed across Huo Shirui's pretty face, but she still reorganized her words, "Are you really going to marry Shi Qian to Yan Ce?"
"There's nothing wrong with it." Pei Haizhu said calmly.
"It's nothing, okay?"
Huo Shirui made it clear that he looked down on the Yan family, "The Yan family is so poor, I don't know what you see in him. If it weren't for the Huo family, the Yan family would have been finished!"
Pei Haizhu curved the corners of his lips in a rare gesture.
Under Huo Shirui's confused gaze, she took a sip of tea and said, "So what?"
Huo Shirui: "?"
What is that like?
She didn't like Yan Qiang or the Yan Qiang family. Although she didn't like Huo Shiqian's hypocritical appearance, she was her biological sister after all, and she didn't want her to marry into the Yan family.
She doesn’t want relatives like the Yan family!
no.
This marriage cannot be concluded!
Huo Shirui was no longer disappointed. She threw the pillow aside and hurried upstairs: "Mom, I'm fine. Let's pack up and go to school."
Pei Haizhu raised his eyes and looked at her, drinking tea peacefully.
…
Yan Qiang stayed on the set for another three days.
During this period, Yang Wenming asked Director Zhao to give some subtle hints. Yan Qiang gave positive feedback, but did not fully respond.
She was a little cautious.
However, before she had time to look for Xiao Jingshan, Xiao Jingshan looked for her first.
It can be seen that Xunyao's divestment has a great influence on "Nine Days". After Yan Qiang told Zhao Xi that she had to go back to Jinghai, Zhao Xi immediately agreed.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Yan Qiang landed at the airport.
There is a banquet tonight for the Ning family. It is a 100-day banquet for the parents and grandchildren of Ning. It is held at the Banyan Tree Garden. Almost everyone in Beijing who has contacts with the Ning family will be present.
Ning Huanhuan also specifically asked about Yan Qiang's flight and prepared to pick her up at the airport.
But Yan Qiang wanted to go back to the Yan family first.
Although the Yan family is not as powerful as before, it now has contacts with the Ning family, so Yan Ce will naturally be present at tonight's banquet.
As the eldest lady of the Yan family, she should naturally be with Yan Ce.
As soon as he and Daodao walked out of the passage, Yan Qiang saw Assistant Chen waiting outside.
"Miss."
Assistant Chen walked over quickly and said respectfully to Yan Qiang, "Mr. Yan asked me to take you home."
Yan Qiang asked him, "How did you know I was taking this flight?"
Assistant Chen said truthfully, "Mr. Yan asked me to wait here."
Yan Qiang understood.
He guessed that she was going back to Jinghai today, but was too embarrassed to ask her, so he simply asked Assistant Chen to wait here.
"Thank you for your hard work, Assistant Chen." Yan Qiang said, "You can ask me directly next time. Don't imitate my brother. It's so stupid to wait here."
Assistant Chen smiled, "Mr. Yan has been waiting longer."
Yan Qiang didn't say anything.
When Assistant Chen came to pick her up, Yan Qiang asked Daodao to take the company car and go back to rest while she went back to Yan's house.
Just as the car started, Yan Qiang's cell phone rang.
The word "It's a blessing" made her hesitate for a moment, and then she asked Assistant Chen to pull over.
Assistant Chen got out of the car knowingly.
"Hello."
"later."
Huo Qi's cold voice came through the mobile phone. Yan Qiang subconsciously turned around and saw that the car parked behind looked very familiar.
"Why are you at the airport?" Yan Qiang asked.
"Come and ask."
Huo Qi's tone seemed a little absent-minded.
Yan Qiang was silent for a few seconds, then hung up the phone, pushed the door, got out of the car, and walked towards the back.
"Miss..." Assistant Chen looked hesitant.
Yan Qiang looked at Huo Qi's license plate that was not ostentatious but could be recognized at a glance, knowing that Assistant Chen would tell Yan Ce the truth.
"You go back first. If he asks, just answer truthfully."
Yan Qiang had no hope of hiding it. She needed to give Yan Ce desensitization treatment.
Stimulating it again and again can make him get used to it and calm him down.
Assistant Chen didn't dare to disobey, and it wasn't until Yan Qiang opened the door of the rear car that he turned around and got in the car.
Yan Qiang did not get in the car.
Because when she opened the back seat door, what came into view was not Huo Qi, but Ruan Yin's gentle and caring face.
"Teacher Yan, long time no see."
Ruan Yin greeted her with a smile and a friendly gesture, "I thought you looked a bit like you when you first got in the car. Brother Huo Qi still didn't believe it. I didn't expect it was really you."
Yan Qiang looked past Ruan Yin to Huo Qi, who was sitting upright inside.
He raised his eyes and glanced at Yan Qiang, "Where are you going?"
He asked this question as if he happened to meet her waiting for the bus on the side of the road!
"Mr. Huo's question is interesting," Yan Qiang smiled, "Where can I go, of course, home."
"Didn't Teacher Yan receive the invitation from the Ning family?"
Ruan Yinruo looked surprised and smiled again, "Ning's grandson Bairi is hosting a banquet at Banyan Tree Garden tonight. Brother Huo Qi even came to the airport to pick me up."
It’s really no secret at all.
As expected, she felt confident in being favored. If she had said these words, Huo Qi would have shamed her on the spot.
When I come to Ruan Yin, I feel indulgent.
"I am also the eldest daughter of the Yan family. A person with no family background like you can receive an invitation. How could I not?"
Yan Qiang looked at Ruan Yin's stiff-smiling face and said, "Ning's parents are celebrating a grandson's 100th birthday. Didn't Miss Ruan ask Mr. Huo to prepare a generous gift for you for such an important banquet?"
"Have you said enough?"
Huo Qi looked at her coolly.
Yan Qiang was not surprised at all.
She said nothing, and when she turned to go back to her car, she found that Assistant Chen had already driven away.
Yan Qiang's steps faltered.
Huo Qi seemed to sneer, and when Yan Qiang looked at him, she met his cold eyes.
Evil thoughts flashed through Yan Qiang's heart.
