Chapter 362 When Will Master Zhong Get Married?
Zhong Yi walked up to Huo Xingzhou and looked around with gentle eyes.
"Boss Huo, what a coincidence."
His eyebrows and eyes are as light as an ink painting, which makes him look noble yet not vulgar.
At first glance, it's obvious that he was brought up in a wealthy family. Who would have thought that he was just an illegitimate child of the Zhong family?
Huo Xingzhou's eyes flickered, and his gaze became even deeper and darker.
He stretched out his hand and held 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 surprising that Master Zhong appears here."
Huo Xingzhou had a guess in his mind, who he came for.
From the details, we can see that there are many illogical aspects in Zhong Yi's work.
But Huo Xingzhou didn't want to make trouble. He wanted to get solid evidence and see how far this man could act.
Zhong Yi said casually, "I love to join in the fun. I heard that the upper class and dignitaries of Haicheng have come here, so I wanted to see what new things are. After listening to the trial, it really opened my eyes."
He changed the subject: "Mr. Huo, when will the final plan for our collaborative Future City project be finalized? The efficiency of your Tianyuan Group is a bit low. I am very optimistic about this project."
How could a project that was almost abandoned be worthy of his attention?
Huo Xingzhou glanced at Qiao Xi and found that her expression was a bit complicated. Even though she had carefully concealed 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 will cost 3 billion. Can Young Master Zhong make the decision for the Zhong family? If we sign the contract, the penalty must be set at the highest rate."
Zhong Shao chuckled. Is Huo Xingzhou afraid that he will 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 wry smile: "Then I will investigate further, and Tianyuan Group should come up with a design plan as soon as possible. If the design plan is amazing, I will pay for it."
Huo Xingzhou said nonchalantly: "Not only you will pay the bill, other bosses will pay the bill too."
He made a sarcastic remark to Zhong Yi in a subtle way.
Zhong Yi tried hard to maintain her outward smile, but she heard Huo Xingzhou attack again: "When does Mr. Zhong plan to get married? I see that the Zhong family has been planning for you for a long time. You and Miss Xiang are so intimate, maybe good things are coming soon?"
Wan Jiang, who was standing next to Zhong Yi, couldn't help but cover his mouth. This Mr. Huo really kept talking about things that were not relevant.
Zhong Yi said politely, "I am flattered that Mr. Huo cares so much about my private affairs. But I am still young and would like to be free for a few more years. I will not consider marriage for the time being."
He glanced at Qiao Xi and then said, "Boss Huo, I see you guys still have things to do, so I won't disturb you."
Finished.
He took Wan Jiang and left.
Sun Weimeng said with two "tsk tsk" sounds: "Is this the nobleman 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 did I feel an inexplicable pressure? Could this be the legendary top-level business war? I tried hard to figure out their every word, and I always felt that there was something else behind their words."
"yes."
Sun Weimeng nodded in agreement.
Huo Xingzhou glanced at the two little fools and said, "We are talking about the literal meaning, 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 laughter: "I also think they mean it literally."
Huo Xingzhou glanced at her lightly, with a slight smile on his lips.
A close look at Zhong Yi's facial features and temperament shows that he is indeed different from the boy named "A Yi". After so many years, there must be differences between an adult male and 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 it when she saw Zhong Shao, but just paid more attention.
Whether Zhong Yi is really "Ayi" will only be known once Lao Chen's old friends find out.
Huo Xingzhou bent his finger joints.
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 big one. I have prepared a big gift for you."
Huo Sijiao said, "It should be a big celebration. We didn't even have a wedding banquet before. This is my sister-in-law's first birthday in our house. We haven't held a big banquet in a long time."
She wanted to let all the noble ladies in Haicheng see her sister-in-law's elegance and how much the Huo family valued her.
Du Ya made the decision directly: "It's settled. It just so happens that Qiao Xi also won the first place in the preliminary election of the needle testing conference. This is a good thing that should be celebrated."
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 Ya looked at Huo Xingzhou and said, "Let Xingzhou worry about the banquet, and you young ladies can just 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. 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. 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, this follower, was really happy to be the driver.
The entrance to the court.
Liu Huimin pinched her palms and looked at the person following 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 Ya noticed her gaze, came to his 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 with a pale face, "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 Ya comforted.
Liu Zongyun, who was sitting in a wheelchair, said softly, "You are going to hold a birthday party for the child. Can you give me an invitation? I didn't fulfill my duty as an uncle, and I didn't have the ability to protect her when she was born. I want to make up for it."
If Liu Huimin had said this, Du Ya 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 Yan 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 Ya nodded: "Don't worry about me. Think more about where to hold Qiao Xi's birthday party. Definitely don't choose Yunding Hotel. The feng shui there is not good, I'm afraid something will happen."
Huo Xingzhou smiled slightly, "I understand."
Azalea left quickly.
He lowered his head and glanced at the message sent by Zhou Yu on the mobile phone screen.
There is cold frost under the eyes!
