Yan Xi came out of the room in a daze. Grandma Lu seemed to have guessed, "Xiao Huo can't come?"
Yan Xi looked at him and nodded, "He... must be too busy to spare the time."
Grandma Lu put the largest piece of sweet and sour spareribs and a plump braised chicken drumstick into his bowl and said, "Don't worry, there's still grandma to celebrate for you. Congratulations to my little Xi for turning another year older. But no matter how old you are, you are still a child in grandma's heart. Here, these dishes are your favorite, eat more today."
"Well, thank you grandma." Yan Xi forced a smile, but the moment he lowered his head to eat the sweet and sour pork ribs, his heart trembled unconsciously.
Come to think of it, he hadn't eaten the sweet and sour pork ribs made by that person for a long time.
Huo Xiao is used to a life of luxury and can't even cook, so he definitely can't make sweet and sour spareribs...
Do I still have a chance to eat it?
As soon as this question was raised, Yan Xi's hands and feet couldn't help but tremble.
He didn't know why he suddenly trembled.
I just feel uncomfortable, very panicked, and as if the answer would be a negative one.
Seeing that he looked unhappy, Grandma Lu quickly asked, "Xiaoxi, what's wrong with you?"
Yan Xi pulled the corner of his lips, smiled and shook his head, "Nothing, I just suddenly felt a little cold."
"Cold?" Grandma Lu glanced at the air conditioner in the corner of the living room, then looked at the pale-faced young man and hurriedly stood up. "I'll turn up the temperature a bit. You eat first."
"Okay." Yan Xi put his thoughts aside and continued eating, but he had no appetite.
At the same time, at the Huo family's ancestral home.
Huo Li and Su's father have already reached an agreement.
All that’s left is to choose a good day to hold the engagement party for Huo Xiao and Su Ying.
Now the two families are having dinner together happily.
Of course, except for Huo Jie and Huo Chen.
They had ulterior motives, sometimes feeling envious, jealous and hateful, and sometimes secretly watching the show.
"From now on, we are relatives, Huo Li. If you say I am not in-laws behind their backs, then you are wrong." Father Su teased with a smile.
Huo Li raised his glass and said, "We're family, so we shouldn't talk behind each other's backs. If I say anything bad about you in the future, I'll scold myself first. Come on, I'll drink three glasses of wine as punishment for everything I did before!"
After three glasses of wine, Huo Li set his sights on Huo Xiao, "Xiao'er, hurry up and toast your father-in-law!"
"Yes." Huo Xiao did as he was told, and stood up and said respectfully to Father Su: "Dad, you can rest assured to leave Xiaoying to me. I will not let you down. No matter what the future holds, I will love and respect her, protect her for the rest of her life, and will not let her suffer any injustice."
"Okay, okay, I feel relieved when you say that!" Father Su laughed heartily with satisfaction.
Huo Xiao raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
In this harmonious and beautiful moment, Huo Chen sneered, attracting everyone to look at him.
"Second brother, when you said this, did you ever think about the existence of gods in this world?"
His tone was unkind, and Huo Li's face changed. Although he didn't know what the matter was, he couldn't let Huo Chen continue. He immediately turned cold and looked at the housekeeper beside him and said, "The third young master is drunk. Take him back to the bedroom to rest first."
"Yes, Third Young Master, I'll help you..."
"Go away!" Huo Chen stood up suddenly, glanced around, and smiled coldly: "I really can't stand it anymore, Miss Su, my second brother is full of lies, he is not worthy of you marrying him!"
Upon hearing this, Su Ying and Su's father looked at Huo Xiao in surprise.
"Ah Xiao, what did he mean?"
"Huo Xiao, what's going on? What do you mean by full of lies?"
Huo Xiao listened to their words and tightened his grip on the wine glass slightly. He stared at Huo Chen, who had a provocative look on his face, and Huo Jie, who was looking forward to a good show. He instantly understood something and his heart trembled.
Huo Chen originally wanted to see him showing a panic expression, but unexpectedly, this person raised the corners of his lips, with anticipation in his eyes, as if he really wanted him to tell the truth quickly.
Huo Chen's heart was filled with alarm.
Damn, what does Huo Xiao’s expression mean?
Do you really think you can't say it out loud?!
Or is he fearless? !
Huo Xiao hadn't done anything yet, but Huo Chen himself was a little panicked.
He subconsciously glanced at Huo Jie.
What should I do? He doesn't seem afraid. Has this been dealt with beforehand?
Huo Jie received the message and looked at Huo Xiao, but found a hint of panic and coldness in his eyes.
Huo Jie pulled Huo Chen's hand and pretended to persuade him, "Third brother, what are you doing? Today is your second brother's big day. Even if you have any conflicts with him, you can't lose your temper at this time, right?"
As he said this, he winked at Huo Chen.
Impossible, he was obviously panicking just now, he is just trying to be strong and calm, don't be afraid.
Huo Chen hesitated for a moment, closed his eyes, and prepared to go all out. Anyway, one of him and Huo Xiao had to make a fool of himself today!
His reputation is already ruined, so he's not afraid of it getting ruined even more.
"Brother, don't stop me! I'm going to tell everyone what happened today no matter what!" Huo Chen shook off his hand and stared at Huo Xiao coldly. Seeing this, Huo Xiao stared at him without dodging.
Huo Chen...you'd better shut up.
Don’t even think about it!
Huo Chen narrowed his eyes and spoke slowly, "Dad, Miss Su, Uncle Su, you have all been deceived by Huo Xiao. He is actually outside..."
As he spoke, a blue light suddenly flashed on Huo Xiao's chest. Huo Chen's eyes were immediately dazzled and his mind went blank.
"He's actually outside...what was it?" Huo Chen scratched his head blankly, "Why can't I remember what I was going to say?"
