Chapter 374 The Engagement Banquet Reveals the True Colors
Yanxiu naturally doesn't like dealing with people.
"Okay, I'll wait for you." His eyebrows stretched a little.
It just so happens that I also need a little time to conceive my own inspiration.
Murong Qiao responded briskly, separated from his fourth brother and turned to look in Ruan Ying's direction.
It is absolutely necessary to say hello, but her so-called greeting is not as simple as what she said to the fourth brother.
She looked across the crowd calmly, quietly watching Ruan Ying, who was sticking to Huo Xiuyuan, smiling sweetly, and avoiding the other party's staring back.
Ruan Ying was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect Murong Qiao to be so open and above board that peeping people would not flinch even when they were scared.
"Yingying?" Huo Xiuyuan called her suspiciously.
Ruan Ying snapped back to her senses, "Huh?"
She just looked at Murong Qiao so intently that she didn't hear what the people around her said.
Huo Xiuyuan thought she was being shy, so he repeated what he had just said.
"I'm going back to Huo's house to say hello." His tone was unprecedentedly patient.
Success is just around the corner, Huo Xiuyuan is more supportive of Ruan Ying than anyone else, so even if he feels the lukewarm attitude of Ruan Ying's parents towards him, Huo Xiuyuan can definitely greet him with a smile.
Ruan Ying didn't intend to follow him, "Okay, see you later?"
Since Huo Hong first arrived, Ruan Ying has noticed him.
It might be better to say that Huo Hong's gaze stayed on her for too long, which made Ruan Ying very uncomfortable, so she subconsciously resisted getting close to her.
She made it clear that she didn't want to go, which made Huo Xiuyuan's face stiff and he couldn't get angry.
"Well, you take good care of yourself." He was reluctant to leave after explaining something.
Ruan Ying let out an "um", watching Huo Xiuyuan's figure gradually walk away, and then her attention inevitably drifted to the girl she just met.
Ruan Ying obviously didn't know her, but Ruan Ying felt that she seemed to be paying attention to her.
"Miss Ruan?" As soon as Murong Qiao approached, she saw Ruan Ying's puzzled and inexplicable expression.
Ruan Ying looked at her, "...Murong Qiao?"
She called out Murong Qiao's name bluntly, and didn't recognize that this person was the daughter of Murong's family who had been in the limelight recently until she got close.
"It's me." Murong Qiao admitted, "I have something to tell you, why don't we find a convenient place to chat?"
Although she and Ruan Ying had little communication, Murong Qiao decided to help the other party sober up.
Huo Xiuyuan must not be allowed to get help from the Ruan family to become even more rampant.
Murong Qiao recalled the battle when Huo Hong entered the arena just now, a large group of people fawned on him and frowned, making up his mind not to make Huo Xiuyuan happy.
Ruan Ying didn't understand what Murong Qiao meant, "Go to the small balcony next to it?"
She pointed to the second floor. There were very few people on it, and most of them were waiters. The concealment of the balcony was pretty good.
Murong Qiao nodded indifferently, and talked with Ruan Ying in another place.
At this moment, it was dusk outside, and the golden light of the afterglow was still glowing beside the clouds. It was very beautiful to look at with the gentle breeze and the scenery of the greenhouse.
"Huo Xiuyuan is lying to you." Murong Qiao said directly.
The fourth brother is still waiting for him, Murong Qiao doesn't really want to leave him alone.
She took out her mobile phone, clicked on the hot post on the Huida forum about Huo Xiuyuan chasing her some time ago, and then handed it to Ruan Ying.
Ruan Ying retorted subconsciously, "He won't lie to me."
During the days spent with Huo Xiuyuan, although he is not a perfect character like a prince in a fairy tale, he still fits Ruan Ying's fantasy about love.
"You can tell by looking at it." Murong Qiao didn't say much.
At this moment, she was very grateful to those students for their gossip. If it weren't for this, Huo Xiuyuan's previous actions of chasing her wantonly could not be recorded, but it became an ironclad proof at this moment.
Ruan Ying's eyes were dubious. Seeing that Murong Qiao really seemed to want her to check the phone, she hesitated for a moment and reached out to pick it up.
Suddenly, Huo Xiuyuan was holding a rose, looking affectionately at the photo of Murong Qiao at the entrance of the teaching building, and Ruan Ying caught sight of it.
Followed by a few photos, Huo Xiuyuan is waiting for someone at the school gate, and there are all kinds of people who intercepted her on Murong Qiao Road...
And so on, countless.
Ruan Ying's face was disdainful and disgusted from the beginning, but after watching it, it gradually changed.
"..." She was unusually silent.
Swipe the screen with your fingertips, exit from one post and click into another, trying to find something different.
But Ruan Ying is very familiar with the affection in Huo Xiuyuan's eyes, but it is indeed for Murong Qiao.
Murong Qiao waited for her to see almost, and then slowly opened his mouth. "You have seen all this."
"In addition, some time ago, Huo Xiuyuan was also one of the protagonists about Jiang Wenxu. If you haven't heard about it, you can ask someone else if I'm deceiving you." Murong Qiao curled his lips.
Everything she showed Ruan Ying was traceable, and there was no possibility of fraud.
Ruan Ying also understood this point, so her expression turned ugly. She simply took a deep breath and returned the phone to Murong Qiao directly.
"I know about that." She turned her head away.
Ruan Ying couldn't bring up any joy at all at the moment, "But he explained to me that it was just an accident that got involved..."
She bit her lip, she was sober as never before, and gradually realized something was wrong.
"No wonder he didn't let me see you last time at the hotel..." Ruan Ying's eyes fell on Murong Qiao.
Fortunately, she was deceived by Huo Xiuyuan's rhetoric at the time, now that he thinks back, he probably felt guilty when he saw Murong Qiao, and he didn't dare to let him meet Murong Qiao at all.
Listening to her words, Murong Qiao couldn't help but smile when thinking of the scene at that time. "Maybe it's a guilty conscience?"
She said it casually, but these words made waves in Ruan Ying's heart.
"Don't be so naive, you might as well think about it, whether he likes you, or the Ruan family you represent." Murong Qiao put the finishing touch.
She pointed out the pros and cons, "He is not the heir of the Huo family."
Ruan Ying is not stupid. Although she was spoiled and brought up since she was a child, she does not fall behind in everything she should learn.
Murong Qiao's words fell into her ears, and it only took a little "translation" for Ruan Ying to understand what Huo Xiuyuan was thinking.
If he got engaged to himself and got help from the Ruan family in the future, Huo Hong would definitely value him more, and everything after that would be a matter of course.
But she was stubborn, "I'm going to ask him myself."
Ruan Ying's eyes were a little red, and in Murong Qiao's eyes, this move seemed to be a final struggle.
But after all, it was the first time he was tempted. Huo Xiuyuan's "beautiful" image was already deeply rooted in Ruan Ying's heart, so it was not so easy to get rid of it.
Being able to show no grievance or anger in front of Murong Qiao is already the most Ruan Ying can do.
She still wanted to hear Huo Xiuyuan's personal explanation.
"Please go ahead." Murong Qiao made way for her.
Maybe only the truth that I have seen with my own eyes can convince me more.
Ruan Ying walked over almost the moment she got out of the way, stepping on the footsteps eager to get the answer, and headed downstairs.
Murong Qiao took a glass of wine casually, stared at Ruan Ying's back and went downstairs, then randomly shifted her eyes to Huo Xiuyuan at the other end, and when she touched another familiar and pampered figure, there was a sudden interest in her eyes .
Probably there is a good show to watch.
