Chapter 76 My wife is worried about me
There was a lot of discussion around.
The Cui family has been on the decline for many years in the eyes of outsiders, and the capital turnover is not smooth, because Cui Xianxing has been investing too much in opening up overseas markets.
The audience didn't know which shipping route Pei Yuzhi was referring to.
But they knew that Pei Yuzhi was probably telling the truth.
Because the faces of the Huo family and the father and son of the Xie family were extremely bad.
No one answered for a while. Pei Yuzhi looked at Huo Qiao with a heavy face:
"Huo Qiao, remember to tell your uncle about what happened today.
The Xie family claimed to be good friends of your uncle, but they actually did something to sow discord when Mr. Cui left.
Even Old Master Huo and Chairman Huo were deceived.
If Old Master Huo hadn't really mentioned your marriage with the Xie family,
I would have thought that Xie Linyuan was the one who lied about the shipping routes."
"You---" Xie Linyuan's fingers were trembling, and he pointed at Pei Yuzhi and wished he would faint immediately.
"Grandpa, are you okay?"
"Ah! Grandpa, are you okay? Grandpa, hurry up, call the family doctor, grandpa fainted!"
The second son of the Huo family spoke sharply, and grandpa Huo collapsed in Huo Sheng's arms.
Pei Yuzhi lowered his eyes and looked at the two black gemstone eyes of the dragon-head cane, sighing in his heart.
It was really nice for the old man to faint after doing something bad.
[--He turned the family upside down, what bad idea is he thinking of? ]
Pei Yuzhi raised his eyelids and looked over, just bumping into Huo Qiao's eyes.
Across the panicked crowd, the chaos and noise around him became an illusion. Pei Yuzhi stroked Huo Qiao's face with his eyes inch by inch at a close distance.
He put all his thoughts and love into this gaze.
He missed him so much.
Pei Yuzhi felt a little regretful. He shouldn't have been afraid to face Huo Qiao just because he had lost his virginity and male body.
If Pei Xinyan hadn't mentioned it this time, if he missed today.
Pei Yuzhi didn't dare to think about what would happen to him.
Huo Qiao rarely saw Pei Yuzhi serious. He was like a burning fire, helping him burn away all the evil spirits around him.
And he didn't get burned.
"What's the name of this young friend? You have helped my Huo family a lot. Let Huo Qiao take you home for a meal some other day."
The smile on Huo Qiting's face had long disappeared. He didn't even leave with Old Master Huo.
Huo Qiao looked over and was about to say something when Pei Yuzhi smiled and said,
"Mr. Huo, you're welcome. My name is Cheng Yun."
Huo Qiao: ...
[---You're worried for nothing.]
Pei Yuzhi's eyes suddenly brightened.
Huo Qiao was actually worried about him just now?
Huo Qiting's eyes were deep and thoughtful, "Cheng Yun?"
"Dad, my uncle called."
Huo Qiao interrupted Huo Qiting's thoughts. Huo Qiting paused and turned around to face Huo Qiao.
His tone was flat, as if he was talking about what to eat in the evening:
"You went too far today. Go kneel in front of grandpa's door and wait for him to wake up."
Pei Yuzhi frowned suddenly, and heard Huo Qiao say:
"I said on the day I was 18 that I would never do such a bad habit as family discipline again. It's not me who has done it. Father and mother should think about how to explain this to uncle."
"Huo Qiao! In front of so many people today, you must embarrass the Huo family, right?"
Cui Xinyue could no longer hold back her anger. She tried to control the expression on her face, but it was still a little bit evil:
"How is it unfair to marry into the Xie family? Xie Linyuan is from a wealthy family, and his education, character, and appearance are all first-class. What are you dissatisfied with? Do you have to embarrass everyone in front of everyone? Huo Qiao, you are such a troublemaker!"
"Mrs. Huo..."
"Shut up," Cui Xianyue turned her head suddenly, staring at Pei Yuzhi with viciousness and hatred, "Where did this little idiot come from, and you are qualified to talk here."
"Xianyue!"
Huo Qiting frowned slightly, his eyes showing impatience. "There are guests in the hall."
Cui Xianyue grabbed her handbag tightly with both hands, wishing to strangle Pei Yuzhi to death immediately.
Seeing that the Xie family had been convinced.
It's all because of Huo Qiao. If Huo Qiao hadn't talked nonsense to Cui Xianxing, Cui Xianxing wouldn't have driven the Huo family out of the shipping territory.
She wouldn't have to bother contacting the Xie family.
Cui Xianxing was sent away. Such a rare opportunity was ruined by a little idiot from Dongsu.
Now Cui Xianxing is resentful. The Tanshuiwan project has been taken back. The Huo family has lost the connection with the Xie family. I'm afraid they will have to think long and hard if they want to do shipping routes again.
Huo Qiting put his arm around Cui Xianyue's shoulder, and the two walked towards the second floor together.
Pei Yuzhi's eyes were absurd.
He suddenly thought of something.
Cui Xianyue probably knew that Chang Fengyuan was Huo Qiting's man.
Even Chang Fengyuan's relationship with Chen Fu and Xie Jinchuan, the mother and son, was clear.
"What? Are you scared? They have always been like this, you don't have to care."
"You know everything?"
"Know what?"
"Your mother..."
Huo Qiao understood, lowered his eyelids and said lightly:
"Well, Chang Fengyuan has handled many projects of the Cui family. This time, uncle took back the Tanshui Bay project because she knew about it a long time ago but hid it from uncle."
Pei Yuzhi's throat was dry, and his eyes looked at Huo Qiao with heartache and concern.
Huo Qiao paused and couldn't help but look away,
"The completion of the Tanshui Bay project will greatly shorten the shipping route and enable direct access to the sea from Tanshui Bay. It is because the Huo family was kicked out that Huo Qiting is so eager to cooperate with the Xie family."
"You...haven't you asked her why she's like this?"
"She's always been like this. She has her reasons. It's useless to ask."
The guests in the banquet hall left one after another.
The servants had already started to clean up the leftovers. The music faded away, and the bleak white lights came on. Everything was orderly and unusually sluggish.
Pei Yuzhi looked at the second floor. There was no one there.
It seemed that the old man was not in serious condition.
"You didn't eat anything tonight, did you? Let's go out and eat something together?"
"I'm not hungry."
"Okay, young master, let's go, leave this unlucky place."
"Pei Yuzhi, don't push me, I haven't asked you yet, where did you get the invitation tonight?"
"---Who cares, let's go, I don't know anything about demons, it's all thanks to young master Huo for the dinner."
The two people who were pushing and shoving downstairs quickly disappeared from sight.
Soon the car's headlights came on, and the car left the front yard.
Huo Qiting leaned on the handrail, staring at the dark front yard expressionlessly.
Cui Xianyue stood beside him with her arms folded, no longer in the hysteria just now.
"You shouldn't force him. He hates that illegitimate child the most. You knew he was in Dongsu, but you still let Chang Fengyuan contact that bastard and give him property. Huo Qiting, you really deserve it."
"Xianyue, your son is better off with the surname Cui."
Cui Xianyue sneered: "But you also heard that Huo Qiao said in person that I am a person of a different surname. He, you and the old man are the Huo family members who want a better Huo family."
Huo Qiting's fingers twitched slightly.
He hated Huo Qiao in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
"What is the origin of the kid named Cheng Yun today? Secretary Jiang, go check him out."
At this time, Secretary Jiang, who had been quietly staying in the shadows, whispered: "Yes, Mr. Huo."
