Huo Qi's current situation is indeed not optimistic.
Huo Boting is very scheming. The Huo family has been in his hands for so many years, and everything is transparent. Huo Qi was able to compete with him in just three years, which was incredible.
His biological father, Huo Zhongkang, was worried about his little Jiujiu. Once Huo Qi gained power, he might stand on the opposite side at any time. After all, it was true that he abandoned his wife and son, and Huo Qi had never been able to deal with him.
What's more, there is a Pei family behind Huo Zhongkang.
When Huo Zhongkang left the Huo family for Tong Zi, he even ignored his engagement with Pei Haizhu, which made the Pei family embarrassed and disgraced.
Although he returned to the Huo family within a few years and married Pei Haizhu, the Pei family would not be so friendly to Huo Qi. After all, more than twenty years later, some people still use this incident to ridicule the Pei family.
The Pei family also wants to lose face.
Now, Huo Qi has offended Rong Xi again. As the eldest grandson of the Rong family in Hong Kong City, he has offended the entire Rong family.
Although the Rong family's business does not involve Jinghai, it is a presence in Hong Kong City that would make Hong Kong City tremble.
Moreover, Ning Huanhuan also said that she missed one.
She didn't know that behind Rong Xi, there was her second brother Ning Yuanting, the Ning Shen stick known as "Ning Banxian".
"Do you want to give him some advice?" Yan Qiang asked.
"What can I do?" Ning Huanhuan convinced her, "I'm talking about you. You said that Rong Xi harassed you this time. He is also an ex-boyfriend who is extremely powerful. He also protected you in Hong Kong City. He must still have some feelings in his heart. Yours, do you really have no intention of rekindling the old relationship?"
Ning Huanhuan knew about Yan Qiang and Huo Qi's love affair.
But later on, Ning Huanhuan didn't know that Yan Qiang secretly became Huo Qi's shady lover, not even a lover, just a bed partner who came and went when he was called upon.
Yan Qiang didn't want to tell her about this unbearable relationship.
"No." Yan Qiang said, "Don't think about it, it will never be possible in this life."
"Hiss~"
Ning Huanhuan narrowed her eyes and looked at her, "Did something happen to you two recently?"
"Well, I'm completely bereft."
"……Depend on!"
Ning Huanhuan was afraid that Yan Qiang would be sad, so she didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she told her the gossip about Jinghai during this period.
For example, which family has an illegitimate child, which family's husband cheated and was caught by her husband, etc. There are endless bloody things.
"Oh, right."
Ning Huanhuan suddenly asked her mysteriously, "Have you seen Pei Buyu since he returned to China?"
Yan Qiang paused for a moment, then took a sip of tea from the teacup, "I've seen it before. I happened to bump into him when I was shopping one day before. What's wrong?"
"I heard it's a hidden beauty from the Golden House, and she seems to be pregnant."
Ning Huanhuan heard this from Pei's family, but she didn't know that the protagonist of this gossip was Yan Qiang's mother, Liu Jinfang, whom she had just met.
"Yeah?"
"yes."
Ning Huanhuan glanced at Yan Qiang sadly, "I was thinking that you and Huo Qi were dating. Pei Buyu just came back. Maybe you could develop and develop. After all, he liked you so much before. I didn't expect it."
Not only Ning Huanhuan didn't expect it, but even Yan Qiang didn't expect it either.
The two talked for a while, and Aunt Chen's soup was ready. Ning Huanhuan drank a lot. When she left, Aunt Chen asked her to take a pot back.
Ning Huanhuan couldn't help but joke: "Aunt Chen, I plan to come back tomorrow to get some food. If you give it away, I will be embarrassed to come tomorrow. Don't you want me to come?"
"How could that happen?" Aunt Chen laughed, "You just like to eat."
As soon as Ning Huanhuan left, the Yan family became quiet.
What Liu Jinfang said began to echo in Yan Qiang's ears. She could no longer tell whether Liu Jinfang's words were true or false. She just felt that this winter was extremely cold.
"Aunt Chen."
Yan Qiang didn't want to sit here blankly, so she asked Aunt Chen, "Do you want to go to the new house and have a look? If you have any ideas about the kitchen, you can also give me some advice."
Aunt Chen was a little moved.
She spent most of her time in the Yan family's kitchen, which was her battlefield.
"Big brother doesn't let me go out because he's afraid that I'll run around alone. You stay with me and go to Yunxi Bay. It'll be fine." Yan Qiang said.
"Then let me tell you sir."
Aunt Chen always kept her identity in mind. She had promised Yan Ce, and she couldn't disobey it just because the eldest lady said so.
"Well, you ask him."
After Yan Qiang finished speaking, she went upstairs.
When we came down, it was already half an hour later. Aunt Chen said, "Sir, he said it's cold outside and there's no heating over there yet. Please wear more clothes when you go out to avoid getting sick."
Yan Qiang nodded.
But the two of them were able to go out as they wished in the end.
The third wave of guests arrived, and just when Yan Qiang and Aunt Chen were preparing to go out, Tong Zi appeared at the door of Yan's house.
She was alone, with no caregiver around her, and seemed to be searching.
When she saw someone coming out, she was probably about to ask, but she stopped when she saw Yan Qiang's face.
"You are Yan Qiang, right?"
Tong Zi was dressed more heavily than Liu Jinfang, wearing a scarf and a hat, with only her face exposed.
She looked at Yan Qiang and introduced herself, "I am Huo Qi's mother, Tong Zi."
Aunt Chen on the side looked at Yan Qiang subconsciously.
This was not the first time Yan Qiang saw Tong Zi. She had seen her in the hospital two days ago. However, because it was night and she only had a quick glance, she did not see Tong Zi's appearance clearly.
Tong Zi has beautiful bones.
Even though she is sick and pale, and her face looks old with age, you can still see how stunning she was when she was young.
Too.
How could a mother who gave birth to a handsome son like Huo Qi, who could make Huo Zhongkang leave the Huo family for her, be mediocre in appearance.
"Hello." Yan Qiang said.
Tong Zi looked at her, "Why don't you invite me in and sit down? My body can't stand the cold. Coming here has already made me feel cold."
Aunt Chen frowned.
She felt that the lady's attitude was a bit condescending, and rightfully so.
But Yan Qiang didn't say anything, she just turned sideways to make way for Tong Zi: "Please come in."
The room is warm.
After Tong Zi entered the door, she took off her hat and scarf, and Aunt Chen brought her hot tea.
Those who come are guests, and hospitality is essential.
"Originally, we were supposed to meet three years ago." Tong Zi took a cup of water and took a sip of hot tea before continuing, "Xiao Qi once showed me your photo and said that you were his girlfriend and wanted to take you with him. Go back home."
Yan Qiang nodded, "Yes. Huo Qi really wanted to take me home at that time."
She had longed for it.
When she wanted to go home with him, he might not have been so deeply invested in the relationship, and he had never responded to her topic.
Later, when he wanted to take her home, the Yan family was almost in ruins and she was planning to leave.
"It was you who went to the hospital two days ago, right?" Tong Zi looked at her.
This face was more beautiful and brighter than what she saw in the photo. The thick-colored face did not need any decoration, and it was enough to attract people's attention.
"it's me."
Yan Qiang did not deny it. She looked at Tong Zi and asked calmly, "Auntie came to Yan's house specially without a driver or caregiver. She probably didn't want Huo Qi to know. If you have anything to say, you can just say it. It's getting late. , if nothing else happens, someone will be looking for you in half an hour at most."
