Chapter 693 Successful approach
Horna's departure did not delay Huo Qiuguang's thoughts on Murong Chen, he immediately changed the subject and changed the topic to business matters.
It just so happened that his original intention was to tell Murong Chen about this, and following the trend could be regarded as a strategy.
"Then I still have some things to do here, Qiao Qiao, go play first." Seeing this, Murong Chen also gave his sister a look.
He never liked that this kind of thing would affect his younger sister. Seeing that Huo Qiuguang mentioned such a thing, he had no intention of keeping Murong Qiao.
Murong Qiao nodded, "Then I'll go to Fourth Brother and the others first."
Among these brothers, the fourth brother Yanxiu is the most worrying one.
Murong Qiao couldn't help but want to go and see more, so after saying hello to Murong Chen, he left directly.
Huo Qiuguang, on the other hand, couldn't help feeling annoyed for a moment after seeing Murong Qiao leave, thinking that he should seize the opportunity to please him just now.
But as a father, he completely forgot that the most important thing is to consider his daughter's feelings.
As Huo Qiuguang's daughter, Huo Na was directly called rude just now. It was the first time she made such a rude move at a banquet, and angrily left with her back to everyone.
"What?" Huo Na couldn't help feeling angry, and went straight back to her good sister with a full stomach.
Jiang Weiyang was sitting next to her and resting. Seeing her coming back, a smile appeared on her face, but after hearing that Huo Na's tone was wrong, she also frowned slightly.
Among the people in this circle, Huo Na and Jiang Weiyang can be regarded as very good friends.
Whether it is the Huo family and the Jiang family, or the friendship between the two in private, they can all be called good friends.
Horna still cared about what happened just now, "It's all my dad, it's fine to please others and do business, but I must be involved."
She muttered, and directly told Jiang Weiyang what happened to her just now.
"I don't think that Murong Qiao is as powerful as the outside bragging, really." Huo Na pursed her mouth in dissatisfaction.
She felt very wronged just now, but because of Huo Qiuguang's suppression, she couldn't say anything in front of everyone.
But emotions always need an outlet to vent, so Huo Na had no choice but to come and talk to Jiang Weiyang.
Jiang Weiyang's eyes darkened, and after waiting for Huo Na to finish speaking, she stretched out her hand to hold the back of the other's hand as if comforting her.
She softened her voice, "You are also very good."
"But my dad always praised that Murong Qiao everywhere." Huo Na couldn't control the grievance in her heart when she said this, so it all came out.
Jiang Weiyang felt the same way, not to mention that he had some affairs with Murong Qiao before, listening to Huo Na's speech, the disgust towards Murong Qiao rose again in his heart.
It's just that Huo Na didn't go to talk for a long time, and was called away again, it seemed that she was a member of the Huo family, Jiang Weiyang couldn't keep her, so she had to watch her leave.
"Weiyang, why don't you look very good?" At this time, Jiang Weiyang's friend leaned over, and seeing her didn't seem very happy, so he asked a little caringly.
Jiang Weiyang didn't answer right away, but his eyes fell on the dazzling figure in the venue pensively, as if he was thinking about something.
The banquet gradually kicked off, and as the number of guests increased, the originally extremely spacious front hall was also extremely noisy tonight.
It was rare for the Huo family to usher in a lively scene, but the excitement made Yanxiu suffocate.
He has always disliked such occasions, so after walking in with his sister just now, taking advantage of the time when the crowd dispersed, Yanxiu directly got into the crowd, and then wanted to find a quiet place to stay until the banquet Finish.
It's just that things always seem to be unsatisfactory. When Yanxiu found the small garden next to the front hall, an unknown young lady saw him and followed him directly.
"The latest work of Mr. Yan's studio is still so hard to grab..."
"Yanxiu, can you help me see what I'm wearing today?"
"Speaking of art, there will be an art exhibition the day after tomorrow. I don't know Mr. Yan—"
At this moment surrounded by several girls, Yanxiu really understood what it means to say that women are like countless ducks.
He obviously just wanted to find a quiet place...
Yanxiu, who was made a fuss by the messy voices, was sitting in the center of everyone, his brows were almost frowned, but those people seemed to have not noticed, and they talked to him very excitedly.
"Sorry." Suddenly a female voice interjected, making the surrounding environment quiet down.
Following the direction of the source of the voice, everyone turned their heads and saw the delicate and beautiful Shen Xi wrapped in a short skirt, standing not far from them.
Shen Xi didn't panic at all, and even smiled politely. "I'm sorry to disturb everyone's elegant mood, but I'm not feeling well, can you please... don't disturb?"
The more famous the Shen family is, the more famous Shen Xi's illness is.
Everyone knew about it, but the girls were reluctant to see Shen Xi say this and look at Yanxiu.
Usually Yanxiu stays in the studio, and finally came out for a while, they must seize the opportunity.
Seeing that they didn't move, Shen Xi had no choice but to speak again. "I don't want to trouble everyone too much, but I have no choice but to ask the housekeeper here, only this side is still quiet..."
Before she finished speaking, Shen Xi frowned and coughed twice uncontrollably.
And these two voices directly succeeded in causing several young ladies to run away without saying a word. After all, if Shen Xi really fell ill, no one wanted to cause trouble, and trouble would be caused to themselves.
Within a few seconds, only Yanxiu and Shen Xi were left in the small garden.
"How is it? Is it clean now?" Shen Xi walked over and said to the smiling classmate Xiu.
She did not deny that she did that just now to help Yanxiu.
But she really needs a quiet environment, but just now Shen Xi actually lied.
This is definitely not the only quiet place, she came here just to find Yanxiu.
Yanxiu narrowed his eyes, "Yes."
People helped him just now, so he couldn't ignore a word.
Yanxiu doesn't like socializing or these "hustle and bustle", but he also understands Shen Xi's actions just now.
"Then—" Shen Xi pointed to the seat next to him, "Can I sit here?"
She didn't do it on purpose this time, but there are not many tables in this small garden, and Yanxiu's side is the most comfortable.
Yanxiu hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded reluctantly.
Shen Xi originally only asked the question with a tentative mind. She was prepared in her heart that she would be rejected, and she even planned to sit next to her in the seat closest to Yanxiu.
As a result, he was stunned, and the other party agreed.
This sudden surprise stunned Shen Xi for a second or two before realizing it. She pursed her lips but could not help but smile, and sat down beside Yanxiu.
She put her hands on her legs with some joy, trying to make her sitting posture look pretty and upright, but her fingertips couldn't stop pinching the hem of the skirt nervously.
Fortunately, there was a table between the two of them, so Yanxiu couldn't see her small movements.
