The meaning of this is very clear, the key to the marriage lies in Murong Qiao.
"That's right, young people have their own ideas." Huo Hongpi smiled.
The housekeeper was holding a few glasses of drinks, and slowly put them in front of Murong Qiao, letting him choose from his heart.
But Murong Qiao didn't even look at it, "I'm hungry."
She made another request, which aroused Huo Hong's impatience.
Could it be that she thought this was her home? Get what you want, without the slightest awareness of the guests?
Huo Hong never expected that Murong Qiao, whom he met a few times before and thought he was pretty good, turned out to have such an unacceptable image after actual contact.
But he didn't know Murong Qiao well, so he naturally didn't know that she was pretending to make things difficult for him. He just felt that she was very troublesome, and asked one after another.
"If you don't dislike it, why don't I ask the kitchen to prepare lunch earlier." Huo Hong softened his expression, and there was no trace of anger on his face.
They are all old foxes, their eyes look cleaner than anyone else when they smile.
When he was talking to Murong Qiao, his eyes would pass over Murong Chen from time to time, seeing that the other party seemed to turn a blind eye to Murong Qiao's pampering, and even had a hint of pampering, and he was a little confused about the two people's thoughts.
But when he thought that this meeting was the time when Murong's family took the initiative to make an appointment, Huo Hong thought that maybe this was a test for Huo's family, after all, Murong Chen was famous for doting on his younger sister.
"It doesn't have to be so troublesome to eat, I'm losing weight recently." Murong Qiao rubbed his stomach, "I want to eat the pastry from the South Street in the city, fresh from the oven."
When he heard the previous sentence, Huo Hong thought that Murong Qiao had finally become more sensible and didn't plan to make any more nonsensical requests. However, when he heard Murong Qiao turn around and wanted to order pastries, his face turned black for a moment.
This scene of changing the subject fell into the eyes of the housekeeper who had been secretly observing, and he couldn't help but let a smile show in his eyes.
Obviously when we met before, Murong Qiao's polite and smiling appearance was very attractive, but now he looks like another person in front of Huo Hong, and the butler is much happier seeing Huo Hong suppressing his anger.
"Miss Murong—" At this moment, even the butler standing next to her pretended to be a little bit embarrassed.
The butler stepped forward and was about to say something when Huo Hongqiang stopped him with a smile and raised his hand.
If it wasn't for the marriage contract...
Huo Hongpi smiled and waved his hands, "Go arrange someone to buy it."
He ordered the housekeeper, his heart was full of anger, his eyes fixed on Murong Qiao, and he didn't intend to just coax Murong Qiao blindly, instead he talked about the business.
"The discussion of marriage should never be hasty. If there is any requirement, we can discuss it." Huo Hongfu mentioned this matter.
He pretended to be generous, looked at Murong Qiao, and acted like a good elder, as if to support their marriage.
But Murong Qiao didn't rush, took a sip of the juice that the housekeeper had just brought, and said leisurely.
"But I think it's too early for us to get married now." Her tone was hesitant.
Murong Qiao even said in an orderly manner, "I haven't thought about getting married so early..."
She closed her eyes and lowered her gaze, and added after a general pause, seeming a little nervous.
Hearing that Murong Qiao didn't really want to get married, Huo Hong's heart skipped a beat immediately and he planned to stabilize. Everyone came to Huo's house, so he had to let the two of them settle down on this marriage.
"Could it be that there is still a cold war?" Huo Hong pretended to be someone from the past, and picked the topic lightly. "Actually, it is normal to have some conflicts in the relationship. It is fine for the two of you to talk about it."
He thought that Murong Qiao was sulking at Huo Yichen, so he deliberately said that.
After all, just now Murong Qiao complained that Huo Yichen hadn't replied to her messages for the past two days. Regarding this, Huo Hong, who had put Huo Yichen under house arrest, felt a little annoyed.
"It's not like that," Murong Qiao shook his head.
"Of course." Huo Hong wished that this title would be more familiar, and listened to her with a smile.
Even Huo Xiuyuan's jaw would drop in shock when he saw this appearance, because Huo Hong had never shown such kindness except for his own son Huo Tan, and he could be called a good elder.
"Uncle Huo," Murong Qiao put his hands on his lap, pretending to consider his posture. "I actually think Huo Yichen's character is a bit dull, like a piece of wood."
"Actually, it's good to be boyfriend and girlfriend now, but the pace is too fast, which makes me a little uncomfortable."
"Friction is naturally a common thing, but in the current situation, I always feel that marriage is still far away from us..."
Murong Chen was sitting on the side, looking at his sister calmly, talking to Huo Hong seriously.
Every point of the analysis is organized, logical, and even very reasonable.
Moreover, Huo Hong had nowhere to refute what he said, as if it was true.
The corners of Murong Chen's mouth curled up imperceptibly, thinking secretly in his heart.
I don’t know when I became so eloquent.
It's okay, even such a younger sister is still cute.
The three people sitting in the front hall had different thoughts. Murong Qiao was more serious about expressing his views to Huo Hong than writing a thesis. Chen's mind is wandering, his mind is full of his own sister.
Here, Murong Qiao and Huo Hong were chatting, and the housekeeper who had been dispatched to send someone to buy pastries started to act directly.
After Murong Qiao's arrival and such a toss, the vast majority of the Huo family took action to meet Murong Qiao's request, and the whole family followed suit.
After the butler complied with the request, he left from the main entrance on the surface, and then walked to a blind spot that Huo Hong couldn't see, then turned around and came back from the side door with ease, and went directly to the study by the shortest route.
The housekeeper stepped on silently, walked around the guards patrolling the corridor and came directly to the door of the study.
Seeing someone coming, the guard at the door of the study stretched out his hand to intercept him without even thinking about it.
"It is forbidden to enter the study today." The guard reminded coldly.
The butler stood still and said calmly, "The head of the family sent me to pick up a document."
As soon as he heard the voice, the guard reacted a little slower, and then realized that the person who came was the butler.
"Sorry." The guard quickly apologized and got out of the way, "I just subconsciously—"
"Nothing," the housekeeper said with a businesslike look, "Is there anything unusual?"
The guard quickly shook his head, "They're all staring, no one else is here except you."
"Okay, I see, watch carefully." The housekeeper instructed again carefully.
He didn't show any anxiety, and after confirming it as usual, he entered the study.
The guard didn't suspect the slightest bit. The identity of the butler was there, and he was not in a hurry. No one would have guessed that the butler was helping people escape.
The housekeeper opened the door and entered the study room, went straight to the subject and walked to the desk where Huo Hong often sat, fumbling for the switch under the desk.
There is a hidden safe here. Huo Hong always likes to store things here. Only Huo Hong himself and the butler's fingerprints can unlock it.
"Drip—"
An imperceptible beep, indicating that the safe has been unlocked.
The housekeeper opened the door of the safe, and sure enough, he saw Huo Yichen's ID and bank card inside.
He took out the folder he had prepared, and then put all the documents and other things in it to hide, and cleaned up all traces of himself very carefully, and went out after confirming that it was correct.
