The exquisite French garden covers a huge area. It is different from the Xishan Villas. Although the villas are luxurious, they also have clear boundaries one by one.
In the Huo family's manor, she could barely see the edge.
"This...is all the territory of the Huo family?" Lu Anzhi was a little unbelievable.
"Well, so are the mountains over there, with orchards, farms, fish ponds and golf courses." Huo Zhiyan frowned loosely and pointed to a closed area not far away: "There is a children's paradise there. I visited it several times when I was a child. I almost died in there.”
Lu Anzhi suddenly turned around. The man in front of him was calm and calm, as if he was talking about something unrelated.
She looked out the window and could occasionally glimpse some swings, climbing frames and other facilities through the fence. It looked like a playground specially built for children.
Before this, Lu Anzhi had never thought that there would be people in the world who didn't like amusement parks.
Now, her worldview seems to have been refreshed again.
The scenery outside the car window continued to change until they saw a clearly marked parking space, which was open-air and full of luxury cars.
Lu Anzhi clicked her tongue. If she could bring all these cars back to her own factory for maintenance, how much money would she make a year?
"Get off the car, we have to walk the rest of the way." After Huo Zhiyan got off, he stretched out his arms in a very gentlemanly manner: "Remember to pretend to be a little bit, don't reveal your secrets."
Lu Anzhi understood and leaned against that strong hand.
The movements were skillful and much more natural than last time.
There was a garden road paved with bluestones at their feet. Apart from the three of them, there were some scattered guests around, but none of these people had familiar faces. They should all be guests who came to Huo's house for dinner.
Lu Anzhi leaned close to Huo Zhiyan's ear and asked in a low voice: "Are there many guests coming today?"
"Yes!" Huo Zhiyan nodded: "Today is my birthday, and there is a lot of pomp, but these irrelevant people will be seated in the outer courtyard, so you don't need to deal with me."
Lu Anzhi breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his belly and said, "I'm so hungry. Can I have something to eat later?"
Huo Zhiyan looked calm: "When will I stop giving you food?"
Just when Lu Anzhi was about to complain, she looked up and saw that there was a security checkpoint next to the gate entering the house.
Is this a meeting between state leaders?
Have a family dinner and go through the security check.
Is it possible that someone actually came to the banquet with explosives on his back?
Huo Zhiyan didn't seem to want to pay attention to the device that was specially designed to perform security checks for guests. He turned around and walked towards the door on the side.
Logically speaking, the Huo family does not need that process to enter the Huo family.
But there happened to be two ignorant staff members who came out.
They were all wearing uniforms, and the tall man was the first to speak: "I'm sorry, young master, the superiors specifically asked me to let you go through the security check with the guests, and we can only let you go after it is confirmed that it is safe."
Huo Zhiyan's eyes instantly turned cold.
Li Jiu took a step forward and asked unceremoniously: "The superior ordered it? Which superior? Please tell me clearly!"
The short man saw something was wrong and hurriedly stepped forward to laugh with him: "Brother Li, you come here often, and you know that it's not easy for us servants to make a living, so you just cooperate and go through the security check with the guests, right?"
Li Jiu was not a soft persimmon, and glared at him fiercely: "You also know that I come here often, so you must know my temper. Is the young master a guest? He is going back to his home!"
The short man continued to insist: "Brother Li, everyone knows the identity of the young master. Please don't embarrass us. We also obey orders. If we just let the young master go in and the superiors find out, we... we can't pay." Take responsibility!”
Li Jiu didn't want to talk nonsense to them any more, so his feet sank and he wanted to push these two people away.
But the tall man who didn't want to watch what was happening behind him actually waved his hand to one side and dispatched a small team of security guards on the spot.
Seeing a group of people walking toward the door, Huo Zhiyan's mouth twitched slightly.
He tilted his head towards Lu Anzhi and said, "Did you see that? Some people don't welcome us."
Lu Anzhi glanced sideways for a few times and sighed: "A good man won't suffer the consequences of his life. This is the gate. Are you going to waste time with them like this?"
"That's not true!" Huo Zhiyan winked at Li Jiu: "No need to argue. I don't care about the Huo family. Today I will just celebrate my grandma's birthday. What if I become a guest again?"
After he finished speaking, he turned around gracefully in front of many guests and led Lu Anzhi towards the security checkpoint.
He had no intention of starting a dispute with anyone.
On the contrary, the two staff members looked stunned, looked at each other and then nodded.
Li Jiu was the first to pass, standing aside with his arms folded, waiting for the boss and young mistress.
Huo Zhiyan passed through the security checkpoint very smoothly.
But just as Lu Anzhi's leg passed the metal door, the piercing alarm suddenly sounded.
Lu Anzhi froze, and the expression on his face was almost unbearable.
She stepped back subconsciously, and the alarm stopped suddenly.
It was now the time for the guests to enter, and the originally sparse crowd had begun to queue up behind her because of her.
Those who are qualified to attend the Huo family's family banquet are, without exception, either rich or noble.
It was a bit reluctant to let a group of rich and powerful bosses line up to pass the security check. Here, as soon as the line was blocked, someone immediately started shouting:
"What's going on? Is this how the Huo family greets guests?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there were many voices echoing: "That's right, we, Mr. Liu, are frequent visitors to the Huo family. Do you have the eyesight to make way for the rest of the crowd?"
At this moment, the tall staff member saw the opportunity, stood up, and explained in a loud voice: "I'm sorry, everyone, our young master's female companion may be carrying dangerous goods, which delayed your time."
For a time, there was an uproar everywhere.
A guest from out of town suddenly asked: "Who is this young master of the Huo family? I only heard that the Huo family has an eldest young master, a second young master, and a young lady, all born to Mrs. Huo. Where did this one come from?" from?"
Another person quickly covered her mouth: "If you don't know, don't say anything. It's your turn to inquire about the Huo family's affairs?"
"Eh... Looking at a group of talented people, they actually bring dangerous goods without permission. Isn't this a waste of time for everyone?"
"..."
The discussion was getting louder and louder, and Lu Anzhi's ears were not deaf, so he could naturally hear these messy words clearly.
"Huo Zhiyan, I don't even have a grain of rice in my stomach, where are the dangerous goods?" She poked the man's hand and calmed down.
Others may not be able to see it, but she knows it.
This incident was most likely caused by those people inside.
"I know!" Huo Zhiyan's eyes darkened a little.
The short staff member next to him took a handheld detector from nowhere and said loudly: "Miss, please come over and get checked."
The staff thought that such an offensive move would make the young lady go crazy on the spot, but they didn't expect...
