At this time, Zhu Lingling no longer needed to pretend to be cold and indifferent to Peter Ho like she did the day before, as that would have made her seem pretentious.
Moreover, Zhu Lingling also knew that what Mr. Huo needed most at this time was a clear statement from her.
For this kind of rich young man, you can hook him for a while, but you must not keep hooking him, otherwise you will definitely end up making things worse.
"What kind of trouble is this?"
Huo Zhenting interrupted her, his tone sincere, "You are a well-deserved champion, and it is right to celebrate. However, TVB has a lot of rules, and the official celebration party will have to wait a few days. I really can't wait, so I will just celebrate a little for you first."
These words revealed a hint of dissatisfaction with TVB's arrangement, and also highlighted his eagerness to monopolize the top courtesan.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Lingling's face flushed just the right amount, and she was about to respond to this sweet attack.
Suddenly, there was a rapid knock on the box door and then it was pushed open.
Ho Chun-ting's assistant looked anxious and didn't even care about the proper etiquette. He walked quickly to Ho Chun-ting, bent down, and whispered a few words in his ear in a very fast and clear voice.
The gentle smile on Huo Zhenting's face froze instantly, as if frozen.
His fingers gripping the wine glass suddenly tightened, causing the wine in the glass to sway slightly.
An uncontrollable astonishment and the subsequent anger instantly surged onto his face like a tide, completely washing away the smug expression he had just had.
"What?!"
He practically squeezed out these two words from between his teeth, his voice low but full of disbelief, "The source... is it confirmed?!"
The assistant nodded nervously, lowering his voice even more: "It's absolutely true, Mr. Huo! The news has... spread. It seems that Mr. Xiaolin... has no intention of keeping it secret at all!"
Zhu Lingling was sitting opposite and clearly saw the drastic change in Peter Ho's expression and the anger in his eyes.
There is no doubt that there is no other person in the whole of Hong Kong Island who can make the famous Mr. Huo lose his composure like this.
It turned out to be news from Kobayashi Tenmo, a name that made Zhu Lingling feel nervous when she heard it.
The tense and depressing atmosphere and Huo Zhenting's suddenly gloomy expression made the smug look on Zhu Lingling's face freeze instantly, and a trace of uneasiness quietly crept into her heart.
The charming atmosphere in the box disappeared, leaving only a sudden, suffocating solemnity.
Zhu Lingling couldn't believe her ears, because she had just heard what Huo Zhenting's assistant whispered in his ear:
"Mr. Huo, I just received some explosive news... Mr. Lin... is going to retaliate against TVB to avenge Miss Liu Rumeng... and is actually planning to spend a huge amount of money to acquire Rediffusion Television! He's determined to get it!"
