Chapter 438 Tai Chi and it's over
They are all people from the shopping mall, and everyone can tell what each other means by just looking at each other.
Murong Chen noticed that Huo Hong glanced at Murong Qiao from time to time, and felt a little unhappy in his heart.
"We haven't seen each other for a long time, how about going upstairs to chat?" Huo Hong smiled heartily.
He looked at Murong Chen, it was obvious that there was a topic of private chat, but it could be said that Huo Hong was very concerned about the marriage between the two families.
Murong Chen nodded calmly, "Naturally, I also have some questions about the recent cooperation projects."
"I'm afraid that saying this on such a festive day today will disturb Yaxing." Murong Chen smiled.
That's what he said, but Huo Hong narrowed his eyes when he heard Murong Chen agreeing with him, he didn't mean to be "disturbed".
"That's just right, son, you take Miss Murong around." Huo Hong shrewdly threw out the second half of the sentence.
He got back to chatting, and he didn't forget to match his son again at this time. It can be said that he didn't miss any chance.
And the excuses they made were natural enough that there was no reason to refuse.
Murong Qiao first glanced at Murong Chen, and saw that the other party nodded slightly as agreement, then carefully took a step forward.
Such behavior and image gave Huo Hong a good control over her.
"Then, I'll wait for you to come back, brother." Murong Qiao said softly.
She stood there as if she was a little scared, but she looked at Murong Chen with fixed eyes and said such a sentence, the kind that makes people feel that she is too good-looking.
Huo Hong smiled kindly, "Let's go, let's chat in the study."
There were so many people at the banquet that it was not a convenient place to talk.
Murong Chen and Huo Hong went upstairs together, watching the two figures disappear at the corner of the stairs, Murong Qiao's expression and eyes that were shy just now showed a hint of a smile.
"Good acting." Huo Yichen smiled in her ear in a very soft voice.
There are still many people around at this moment, and it's hard for Huo Yichen to say it too obviously, but this joke is what I wanted to say just now.
Murong Qiao turned her back and blinked at him, smart and playful. "I obviously worked hard while holding back my laughter."
When she came to Huo's house just now, she was still thinking about how she could secretly go to Huo Yichen to fish for a while, but Huo Hong himself brought the opportunity to his door.
"But Huo Hong hates me a lot more than I imagined." Murong Qiao turned his eyes and looked in the direction of the second floor inquiringly. "His eyes are too uncomfortable to look at me."
It's not like looking at a person, but more like looking at a product.
He is assessing the value, or considering the interests, no matter what, it will definitely not be kind and happy to a person.
Obviously they are also businessmen, but Big Brother and Huo Hong seem to be two extremes.
"Well. A businessman through and through." Huo Yichen replied quietly.
He then took a glass of wine and shook it gently in his hand, and then took a step towards Murong Qiao, helping her to shield her from many malicious eyes from the outside world.
Murong Qiao couldn't help laughing, "A proper description."
This metaphor is so apt that Murong Qiao had no choice but to nod his head in agreement for a while.
Everyone knows that once Huo Hong makes a move, it must be for his own purpose. As for the excuses that are made on the surface, don't believe a word.
The Huo family's banquet was held strictly this time, only some prominent people and those business friends who had a lot of friendship with the Huo family in the mall were invited to come. Everyone is an old fox, staying here to observe Huo Hong secretly.
From the time when they learned that the Murong family had arrived, they went outside to greet them, even went upstairs with Murong Chen, the president of Shengjing Group, to Huo Hong asking his son Huo Yichen to accompany Murong Qiao—
The abacus pillar almost collapsed on their faces.
The old foxes at the banquet had different thoughts, but they couldn't get a glimpse of the scene on the second floor.
Huo Hong and Murong Chen sat facing each other, facing Huo Hong's very "hospitality" eyes, Murong Chen habitually wore a commercial smile on his face.
"I let my son take over the cooperation this year. I'm afraid it will cause you a lot of trouble." Huo Hong mentioned Huo Yichen as soon as he came up.
He sat on his seat with a smile, looking at Murong Chen with soft eyes at the moment.
A long time ago, when both of them were in control of the company, when they met, they looked at each other like enemies, but now Huo Hong faintly wants to let Huo Yichen go to practice, and the Murong family has found a daughter. It changed.
What kind of enemy, this is called turning hostility into friendship.
Murong Chen shook his head, showing approval on his face. "That's not true. Mr. Huo is young and promising, and he is also extremely talented in business."
"I wasn't too worried about the replacement, but later Mr. Huo really proved his strength with facts." Murong Chen chuckled, "It's because of your good teaching."
Who doesn’t know how to brag about beautiful words, especially the one that brags about Huo Hong at the end.
"It seems that Huo Yichen is not bad to receive such praise from you." Huo Hong smiled even more sincerely.
Murong Chen nodded affirmatively, "Mr. Huo is the most powerful young man I have ever seen."
As soon as Huo Hong said this, half of Huo Hong's heart that was still suspended just now dropped.
"Seeing that you like him very much, it gives me a little confidence in what I want to say." Huo Hong even joked.
It's just that the teasing tone coupled with his orange-like face is indeed a bit magical, but Murong Chen can't bear to look directly at it.
"Now this can be regarded as the world of young people." Huo Hong smiled, "After all, I am old, and the Huo family can't be held in my hands forever..."
When Huo Hong said this, he sighed in a timely manner, which coincided with the faint noise coming from outside the study room, and it really made him feel a bit lonely as an old man for a while.
"Recently, I've been thinking that the Huo family should have a wife." Huo Hong pointed.
Murong Chen squinted his eyes, watching the old fox in front of him acting, he didn't forget to show his misery, but also tested his attitude, from time to time Murong Chen added a sentence or two in response.
It's just under the false mask that Murong Chen also feels disgusted with Huo Hong.
As for the matter between his sister and Huo Yichen, he had half agreed to it before, and Huo Yichen's performance during this period was indeed enough to conquer him.
But Huo Hong and Huo Yichen are not "Huo". When Murong Qiao grows up, Murong Chen is happy to see their wedding, but... definitely not like this.
Murong Chen closed his eyes, hiding the disgust and disgust in his eyes, and when he lifted his eyes, they were full of cold and alienated politeness, and met Huo Hong's eyes that were completely interested in interests.
"I don't hinder young people's thoughts very much." Murong Chen played Tai Chi with him.
His fingertips tapped rhythmically on the armrest of the sofa next to him, "The most important thing is to see if my sister likes it. After searching for so many years, I finally found it. I can't wrong her."
His tone was mostly doting, and he didn't look like President Murong at the moment, but a good brother who dotes on his younger sister.
"Of course, it's one thing to make my sister look good, but it's another thing to be worthy of her." Murong Chen said.
