Chapter 626 Nonsense
"Whatever the reason, I've been trying my best to make it up to you since I found you. I've even handed over the management of the Shi family to you..."
Shi Yiheng interrupted him coldly, "Don't forget, if you hadn't threatened me, I wouldn't have returned to the Shi family."
Looking at his cold expression, Shi Xingguo knew that he might never be forgiven by him in this lifetime.
He sighed, said nothing more, turned around and slowly left. His back looked a little desolate, but there was no change on Shi Yiheng's face.
Soon, the day of their engagement arrived.
Huo Yiyi changed into her dress and was about to leave when she received a call from Huo Yunting.
"Send me a document to the company."
Huo Yiyi frowned, somewhat reluctantly, "Brother, can you find someone else? I have something to do today."
"What's up?"
Hearing this, Huo Yiyi suddenly felt guilty and lowered her voice a few degrees. "Actually... it's not a big deal. What documents do you want? Can I go to your villa to get them?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds. Just when Huo Yiyi thought Huo Yunting had noticed something, his low voice came.
"The acquisition of Shengshi Binhe is in the third drawer on the left side of the desk in my villa's study. Send it to me before ten o'clock."
"knew."
After hanging up the phone, Huo Yiyi resigned herself to her fate and drove to Huo Yunting's villa.
After delivering the documents to Huo's, she thought she could leave, but unexpectedly Huo Yunting stopped her.
"Wait in my office for a while. I'll go to the engagement party with you."
Huo Yiyi:!!!
Ignoring her shocked expression, Huo Yunting walked into the meeting room with the documents.
For the next forty minutes, Huo Yiyi felt extremely tormented. She kept wondering why Huo Yunting wanted to attend the engagement party of Xiao Muzhen and Shi Yiheng. Could it be that he still had feelings for Xiao Muzhen and wanted to snatch her away?
Although she is her brother and reason makes her stand on his side, Shi Yiheng is paralyzed because of Xiao Muzhen. Even if she still likes Huo Yunting, it is probably impossible for her to be with him.
Thinking of this, Huo Yiyi fell into a dilemma.
If Huo Yunting makes a scene at the engagement party, which side should she support?
It was almost eleven o'clock when Huo Yunting walked out of the conference room.
"Let's go."
Seeing Huo Yunting walk towards the elevator after he finished speaking, Huo Yiyi was a little conflicted, "Brother, why don't you not go."
Huo Yunting paused, turned around and looked at her with a frown, "Why?"
Huo Yiyi: “…”
Under his cold gaze, Huo Yiyi could only bite the bullet and say, "Everyone attending the engagement party basically knows about your past with Zhenzhen. Now that she's engaged to Shi Yiheng, it might not be appropriate for you to go there..."
"If it wasn't suitable, the Shi family wouldn't have sent me an invitation."
Huo Yiyi's eyes flashed with shock and disbelief.
"You said the Shi family sent you an invitation?"
Is Shi Yiheng crazy?!
"Um."
After coldly saying this, Huo Yunting ignored her and walked quickly towards the elevator.
It wasn't until she got into the car downstairs that Huo Yiyi came to her senses.
"Brother, you're not going to cause trouble at the engagement party, are you?"
Huo Yunting ignored her and just lowered his head to look at the documents in his hand.
Seeing him silent, Huo Yiyi panicked and said quickly, "Brother, you and Zhenzhen are not meant to be together. Now her life has finally returned to normal. And you also know that Shi Yiheng became paralyzed because he saved her. If you mess up the engagement party, she will definitely feel even more guilty towards Shi Yiheng, and you don't want to..."
Before she could finish her words, Huo Yiyi automatically fell silent under Huo Yunting's cold gaze.
The car fell into a suffocating silence. After a long while, Huo Yunting finally spoke: "Don't worry, I won't do anything."
"real?!"
"Um."
"That's good……"
Looking at Huo Yiyi's relieved expression, Huo Yunting's hand holding the document tightened unconsciously, but the expression on his face did not change at all, as if Xiao Muzhen's engagement to someone else was of no importance to him.
The other side.
In the dressing room, Xie Fu sat next to Xiao Muzhen.
"Zhenzhen, have you really thought it through?"
Xiao Muzhen stopped drawing her eyebrows, turned to look at Xie Fu and said with a smile, "If I hadn't thought it through, I wouldn't have come here today."
"I know you're grateful to Shi Yiheng for saving you... but there's no need to spend your whole life repaying him..."
"I know you're doing this for my own good, but I've thought it through. For marriage, whether there's affection or not isn't important. As long as two people can treat each other with respect, that's all that matters."
Seeing her determined expression, Xie Fu sighed and didn't try to persuade her anymore.
"Just think it through."
The engagement banquet started on time at 12:08 noon.
After the emcee said a few nice words on the stage, he said slowly and solemnly: "Let us welcome today's protagonists, Miss Xiao Muzhen and Mr. Shi Yiheng."
The door of the banquet hall slowly opened, and Xiao Muzhen pushed Shi Yiheng out slowly from behind the door.
Most people came to the engagement party just to watch the fun. After all, it wasn't long after Shi Yiheng had a car accident and the two got engaged. Everyone felt that it wasn't because they loved each other.
Moreover, Xiao Muzhen’s ex-boyfriend Huo Yunting is here too, so maybe something interesting will happen soon.
Tang Ruze walked up to Huo Yunting and raised his eyebrows. "Mr. Huo, how does it feel to see the person you love getting engaged to another man?"
Huo Yunting gave him a cold look and said, "Boss Tang should understand this feeling better than me. After all, the woman Boss Tang loves doesn't seem to love you."
Tang Ruze's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes became extremely cold.
After several seconds, he suddenly smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Huo knows me very well. He must have spent quite some time investigating me, right?"
Huo Yunting's expression was indifferent. "After all, there is no such thing as an impenetrable wall in this world. Mr. Tang, you'd better think twice before doing anything in the future, otherwise you might get into trouble."
"Thank you, Mr. Huo, for the reminder."
After saying this, Tang Ruze left.
The moment he turned around, the smile on his face was completely replaced by coldness, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
However, what he didn't know was that Huo Yiyi, who looked weak and harmless, was staring at him thoughtfully.
Soon, Xiao Muzhen and Shi Yiheng arrived at the center of the stage.
Xiao Muzhen calmly accepted the gazes coming from all directions. Whether they were kind or not, she accepted them with a smile.
"Thank you all for coming to our engagement party. Please forgive us if there are any shortcomings in the hospitality."
As soon as Shi Yiheng finished speaking, someone in the audience suddenly spoke up: "Mr. Shi, I heard that Miss Xiao agreed to be engaged to you because you became paralyzed in order to save her, is that right?"
In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on the person who spoke.
The person who was speaking was the son of the president of Shi's rival company. He was a notorious second-generation rich man in Beijing who didn't give face to anyone.
Shi Yiheng frowned and was about to speak when Xiao Muzhen beside him spoke.
"I don't know where Mr. Zhao heard this from, but he brought out some nonsense. The Zhao family really has good family education."
