Chapter 733: The New is Not as Good as the Old
As Mr. Wu finished speaking, everyone around him smiled mockingly.
After all, when Huo Yunting was the president of Huo Group, he had an aloof personality and offended many people, and now they are planning to take advantage of this opportunity to kick him when he is down.
Huo Yunting looked at the wine handed to him by Mr. Wu with a calm expression, without any expression on his face.
He and Mr. Wu had clearly made an appointment to meet in another private room, but the waiter brought him to Jing Xuechu's birthday party. It seemed that this was Mr. Wu's instruction, and the purpose was to humiliate him.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Mr. Wu's eyes flashed with anger, and he snorted coldly, "Huo Yunting, I call you Mr. Huo only to give you face. Don't be shameless. You have to drink this wine today, whether you want to or not, unless you don't want to continue to mix in the capital!"
"Since Mr. Wu has no intention of cooperating, I will take my leave."
After saying that, Huo Yunting turned around and was about to leave.
However, just as he turned around, Mr. Wu suddenly poured the glass of wine directly at him.
The scarlet wine poured down from Huo Yunting's head, soaking his gray suit.
In an instant, the banquet hall fell into an eerie silence.
Mr. Wu seemed oblivious to the chill emanating from Huo Yunting, and said cheerfully, "Mr. Huo, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it!"
Xie Fu, who had been watching the entire process, had a flash of anger on her face. She gritted her teeth and said, "This Wu Deren is a complete bastard! I've never met such a disgusting person! His crappy company was on the verge of bankruptcy. If it weren't for Huo's, he wouldn't have the qualifications to stand here now. And now he does this. It makes me so angry!"
Although Xie Fu was angry, she had no intention of helping Huo Yunting. After all, she was not familiar with Huo Yunting, and... Huo Yunting was Xiao Muzhen's ex-boyfriend, and Shi Yiheng was Xiao Muzhen's current fiancé. It would not be appropriate to help Huo Yunting in front of Shi Yiheng.
Xiao Muzhen on the side couldn't help but frown. She knew that Huo Yunting was trying to find a way to regain the Huo Group, but she didn't expect the situation to be so bad.
Even the boss of a small company dared to bully him like this.
She stood up and was about to walk over, but was stopped by Shi Yiheng.
"Zhenzhen, this is his own business. After the Huo family was taken away, he was destined to go through this. You can help him this time, but can you help him every time?"
"Besides, he treated you like that before, don't you hate him?"
"I don't want you to go there because he hurt you and he deserves it!"
Xiao Muzhen's hands tightened unconsciously, and then he suddenly shook off Shi Yiheng's hand.
"He was trying to help the Xiao family, so the Huo family was snatched away by Tang Ruxing. If I don't stand on his side now, what's the difference between me and someone who takes advantage of someone's misfortune?"
After saying that, she turned around and walked quickly towards Huo Yunting.
Shi Yiheng stared at her back, his eyes dark, and his hand holding the crutch turned pale.
She turned a blind eye to how well I treated her, but she couldn't bear to see Huo Yunting suffer any injustice all the time!
She doesn't deserve his love at all!
At the entrance of the banquet hall, Huo Yunting turned around and looked at Wu Deren with a cold expression.
"Since Mr. Wu's hands are shaking, it seems there's no point in keeping them."
Wu Deren couldn't help but shudder when he noticed the coldness in Huo Yunting's eyes as he looked at his hand, and then a surge of anger surged in his heart.
Huo Yunting is nothing now, so what right does he have to threaten him like this?!
With a grim smile on his face, he poured another full glass of wine into the glass and suddenly poured it at Huo Yunting!
However, before he could splash it out, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his wrist.
“Crack!”
"ah!"
The sound of broken hand bones and Wu Deren's screams rang out at the same time. The wine glass in his hand fell straight to the ground due to exhaustion and shattered with a bang.
When they saw it was Xiao Muzhen, everyone was stunned.
Wu Deren's head was sweating from the pain, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Xiao Muzhen, how dare you do this to me? I won't let you go!"
However, Xiao Muzhen didn't even look at him, but turned around and handed Huo Yunting a handkerchief.
"Wipe it off."
Huo Yunting took the handkerchief and said, "Thank you."
"Need not."
She turned to look at Wu Deren and said coldly, "You just opened a small company, and you dare to bully others here? You don't have to let me go, just sue me. The cooperation between Xiao and Wu will be cancelled from now on."
Wu Deren sneered, "Who do you think you are? You're just an adopted daughter of the Xiao family. There's no way the Xiao family would give up their cooperation with the Wu family just for you!"
"Oh? Then I can inform Mr. Wu that Xiao Corporation will no longer have any cooperation with Wu Corporation."
Xiao Zhuan's cold voice came from the door, and Wu Deren's face turned even paler in an instant.
"Boss Xiao...how can cooperation between companies be so careless?! Are you taking advantage of the fact that Xiao's company is bigger than Wu's to bully others?"
Xiao Zhuan walked in with no expression on his face.
"Isn't Mr. Wu's behavior just now bullying? If I remember correctly, Mr. Wu's company was on the verge of bankruptcy, and it was only thanks to the Huo family that it survived. We dare not cooperate with an ungrateful partner like Mr. Wu."
Wu Deren's face flushed red as he gritted his teeth and said, "I'll terminate the cooperation, as long as you don't regret it!"
After saying that, he prepared to leave angrily.
At this moment, a clear and beautiful female voice sounded.
“Wait!”
Everyone turned around and saw Jing Xuechu slowly walking towards the door.
She had a smile on her face, but her eyes were cold.
"Mr. Wu, you ruined my birthday party, shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
Jing Xuechu had a smile on his face, but the look in his eyes when he looked at Wu Deren made him feel pressured.
He couldn't afford to offend the Xiao family alone, and if the Jing family came along, he would be even more unable to cope.
"Miss Jing...what do you want?"
"I don't want to do anything. Just splash yourself with the same splash you splashed on Mr. Huo. Do you think this is fair, Mr. Wu?"
Wu Deren's face froze, and then he quickly said, "Fair... fair..."
After saying that, he directly picked up the bottle and poured a bottle of red wine on his head, looking at Jing Xuechu with a flattering face, "Miss Jing, are you satisfied with this?"
Jing Xuechu smiled and said, "Mr. Wu shouldn't ask me, he should ask Mr. Huo."
Wu Deren gritted his teeth and looked at Huo Yunting, who was standing aside with an expressionless face. "Boss Huo, I was blinded by my own greed just now. I hope you can forgive me this time. If you are not satisfied, I can continue..."
Huo Yunting looked indifferent, "Go away."
Upon hearing this, Wu Deren felt as if he had been pardoned and left quickly.
Jing Xuechu looked at Huo Yunting, and the smile on her face was obviously much more sincere.
"Mr. Huo, I'm so sorry about this. There's a restroom behind the banquet hall. Please go clean it up. I'll have someone send over a new suit."
Huo Yunting glanced at her and said calmly, "No need."
