Chapter 362 When Will Mr. Zhong Get Married?
Zhong Yi walked up to Huo Xingzhou and looked around with gentle eyes.
"Mr. Huo, what a coincidence."
His eyebrows and eyes are as light as an ink painting, which makes him look noble yet not vulgar.
It's obvious that he was brought up in luxury. Who would have thought that he was just an illegitimate child of the Zhong family?
Huo Xingzhou's eyes flashed, and his gaze seemed even deeper and darker.
He stretched out his hand and put his arm around Qiao Xi's waist, and said in a deep voice: "It's not a coincidence. Xu Guangyao and our Huo family have some grievances. But it's quite surprising that Young Master Zhong appears here."
Huo Xingzhou had a guess in his mind as to who he came for.
Through the details, it can be seen that there are many illogical things in Zhong Yi's actions.
But Huo Xingzhou didn't want to alert the enemy. He wanted to get solid evidence and see how far this person could go.
Zhong Yi said casually, "I love to join in the fun. I heard that all the upper class and powerful people in Haicheng came here, so I wanted to see what new things were. After listening to the trial, it was really an eye-opener."
He changed the subject: "Mr. Huo, when will the final plan for our collaborative Future City project be finalized? Your Tianyuan Group's efficiency is a bit low. I'm very optimistic about this project."
A project that was almost in ruins was not worthy of his attention.
Huo Xingzhou glanced at Qiao Xi and noticed that her expression was a bit complicated. Even though she had been very careful to hide it, it was still revealed by her small movements.
He looked at Zhong Yi and said calmly, "The first round of investment for the Future City project requires 3 billion. Can Young Master Zhong make the decision on behalf of the Zhong family? If we sign a contract, the penalty for breach of contract must be set at the highest percentage."
Young Master Zhong chuckled. Was Huo Xingzhou afraid that he would go back on his word?
He really couldn't convince the Zhong family to come up with the money in a short period of time. The Future City project was just an excuse for him to stay in Haicheng.
Zhong Yi said with a forced smile, "Then I'll investigate further, and Tianyuan Group should come up with a design proposal as soon as possible. If the design is truly amazing, I'll buy it."
Huo Xingzhou said nonchalantly: "Not only will you pay for it, other bosses will pay for it too."
He made some ironic remarks to Zhong Yi in both an open and a covert way.
Zhong Yi tried hard to maintain a superficial smile, but then heard Huo Xingzhou's attack again: "When does Young Master Zhong plan to get married? I see the Zhong family has been planning for you for a long time. You and Miss Xiang are acting so intimately, perhaps good things are coming soon?"
Wan Jiang, who was standing next to Zhong Yi, couldn't help but cover his mouth. This Mr. Huo was really talking about things that were not related to the topic.
Zhong Yi said politely, "I'm flattered that Mr. Huo cares so much about my personal affairs. But I'm still young and want to be free for a few more years. I won't consider marriage for the time being."
He glanced at Qiao Xi sideways, then said, "Boss Huo, I see you guys still have things to do, so I won't bother you anymore."
Finished.
He took Wan Jiang and left.
Sun Weimeng tsk-tsk'd twice: "This is the noble young man from the imperial capital? He looks different."
I can’t say how they are different from ordinary people like them, but I just feel that their temperaments are very unique.
Huo Sijiao also took a deep breath. "He and my brother were just chatting, but why do I feel an inexplicable pressure? Could this be the legendary top-level business war? I tried hard to think about their every word, and I always feel like there's something else behind it."
"yes."
Sun Weimeng nodded in agreement.
Huo Xingzhou glanced at the two little idiots and said, "We are speaking literally. There is no need to interpret it in depth."
Huo Sijiao: "Really?"
Sun Weimeng: "I don't believe it."
Qiao Xi covered her lips with her hands, her eyes curved with a smile: "I also think they mean what they said literally."
Huo Xingzhou glanced at her lightly, with a slight smile on his lips.
A closer look at Zhong Yi's facial features and temperament revealed a certain difference from the boy named "A Yi." After so many years, an adult male must be different from a teenager.
In addition, "Ayi" is already dead, and Zhong Yi and "Ayi" have different words and deeds. No wonder Qiao Xi didn't dare to confirm when she saw Zhong Shao, but just paid more attention.
Whether Zhong Yi is really "Ayi" will be known once Lao Chen's old friends find out.
Huo Xingzhou flexed his knuckles.
Wait a little longer.
His thoughts were interrupted by Sun Shao's mumbling.
Young Master Sun said loudly, "Fairy, I remember your birthday is coming soon. This birthday party must be a grand one. I have prepared a big gift for you."
Huo Sijiao said, "It should have been a big celebration. We didn't even have a wedding banquet before. This is my sister-in-law's first birthday in our house, and we haven't had a big party in the second branch for a long time."
She wanted to let all the wealthy ladies in Haicheng see her sister-in-law's elegance and how much the Huo family valued her.
Du Juan made the decision immediately: "It's settled. Coincidentally, our Qiao Xi also won first place in the preliminary selection of the needle trial competition. This is a good thing to celebrate."
Qiao Xi wanted to keep a low profile, but looking at their expectant eyes, she couldn't say anything to spoil the fun.
She said softly, "Okay."
Du Juan looked at Huo Xingzhou and said, "Let Xingzhou worry about this banquet. You young ladies can relax, go shopping, and have afternoon tea."
"that is."
Huo Sijiao hugged Qiao Xi's arm and said, "Brother, I'm taking my sister-in-law shopping to pick out a dress for the party. Today is a sunny day and it's a good day. Sister-in-law, please don't refuse me."
Qiao Xi looked at Huo Xingzhou.
The man nodded and said, "You and Jiaojiao can go shopping and relax for a while. Leave the rest to me. You don't have to worry about it."
"Um."
Qiao Xi's curled eyelashes trembled and her face was full of smiles.
"Sister-in-law, let's go! Let Sun Weimeng take us to the mall. I see many brand stores have new autumn styles." Huo Sijiao pushed Qiao Xi forward. Sun Weimeng, the follower, was actually happy to be the driver.
At the entrance of the court.
Liu Huimin pinched her palms, looking at the people around Qiao Xi with envy. She couldn't even say a word to her, let alone go shopping and have afternoon tea, which was originally the most common thing between mother and daughter.
She always loved taking Xu Xingluo shopping.
Du Juan noticed her gaze, came to her senses, walked towards her and said: "You can see that Qiao Xi is living a happy life now. Don't disturb her..."
Liu Huimin bit her lip and said palely, "Thank you very much for treating her as your own daughter."
"Liu Huimin, you need to move forward and not dwell on the past," Du Juan consoled her.
Liu Zongyun, sitting in a wheelchair, said softly, "You're going to hold a birthday party for the child. Can you give me an invitation? I didn't fulfill my uncle's obligations, and I didn't have the ability to protect her when she was born. I'm thinking about making up for it."
If Liu Huimin had said this, Du Juan would have refused without hesitation.
But this was Liu Zongyun's request.
She just said, "I'll think about it and give you an answer when the time comes."
"Okay, thank you." Liu Zongyun thanked him gently.
Du Juan sighed and returned to Huo Xingzhou's side. Huo Xingzhou said, "Let the driver take you home. I'll go back to the company."
Du Juan nodded: "Don't worry about me. Think more about where to hold Qiao Xi's birthday party. Definitely don't choose the Yunding Hotel. The feng shui there is not good, I'm afraid something will happen."
Huo Xingzhou smiled slightly: "I understand."
Dujuan left quickly.
He lowered his head to glance at the message sent by Zhou Yu on his phone screen.
The bottom of the eyes is covered with cold frost!
