Chapter 777 Tonight, She Will Belong to Someone Else

The banquet hall was filled with joy and a sweet atmosphere.

Huo Sijiao took Xie Xubai's hand and met the elders of the Xie family one by one, and greeted relatives and friends. Finally, she greeted a group of prominent figures in the imperial capital.

Her face froze from laughing.

My feet were rubbed so hard by the high heels that I don’t know if the skin was broken.

Being engaged is so tiring.

I don’t know what marriage will be like.

"sister in law."

Her cheeks were red from the alcohol, and she walked over to Qiao Xi and said coquettishly, "Being engaged is so tiring!"

Qiao Xi tidied up her hair and said, "There is only one engagement party in your life, you must cherish it."

"I've been drinking so much, my stomach feels really bad."

Xie Xubai stood aside and said, "We have arranged for the kitchen to prepare a small banquet. You can go to the main house to eat."

Huo Sijiao asked, "Is it okay for me to just leave like this?"

"It's okay. I'll take care of the situation."

"good!"

Huo Sijiao took Qiao Xi and walked to the glass corridor on the other side. Through this glass passage, they could reach the main house of Xie Mansion, which was where the Xie family usually lived.

The main house seemed much quieter, and Huo Sijiao completely relaxed.

There were exquisite small plates on the dining table, all of which were her favorite specialties.

Especially the snow-coated bean paste.

Xie Xubai remembered her taste very clearly.

"Sister-in-law, let's eat something quickly. Don't be hungry, or your brother won't forgive me."

Huo Sijiao picked up a piece of snow-covered bean paste and put it on Qiao Xi's plate. "Try it. It tastes completely different from Haicheng. This is my favorite snack recently. And this pigeon cake. It's great that I don't have to stay in the banquet hall to deal with those people!"

Qiao Xi watched her enjoy the feast, and the smile in her eyes became even more intense.

Huo Sijiao was very happy that she could be happy.

"Young Madam."

The Xie family's maid came closer and spoke in a low voice.

Huo Sijiao put down her chopsticks and the smile on her face faded a little.

"Then I'll go and take a look."

She stood up holding up the hem of her skirt, said something to Qiao Xi and walked out.

After turning a few corners, they finally saw the familiar figure. Huo Sijiao slowed down her pace, approached and said, "I heard that you wanted to see me alone? If you have anything to say, just say it now."

Shen Xuanzhi turned around and looked at her, with a flash of surprise in his eyes, but he felt even more uncomfortable in his heart.

Tonight, she will belong to someone else.

"Do you really like Xie Xubai? Or is it because of the Huo family..."

"Does it have anything to do with you? No matter whether I like Xie Xubai or not, I am willing to marry him. No one can force me, Huo Sijiao, to give in to something I don't want to do." Huo Sijiao still couldn't remain calm when facing Shen Xuanzhi.

After all, he was someone she loved deeply, and he also gave her a very profound lesson.

Flash marriage!

Is Shen Xuanzhi the only one who can do such a thing as a flash marriage? Huo Sijiao is no pushover either.

"good."

Shen Xuanzhi had completely given up.

He thought reason was enough to control his emotions, but it was too late.

The repressed emotion spread like seaweed, overwhelming his entire heart.

This made him unable to sleep at night, thinking about Huo Sijiao all the time.

"Shen Xuanzhi, you already have a wife. The Guan family has now fallen out of the ranks of the four major families and has suffered a heavy blow. You should focus on revitalizing the family. Miss Guan is a very good woman, you should cherish her."

This is Huo Sijiao’s final warning.

"I know this is the last time I will say these inappropriate words to you."

Shen Xuanzhi took out a string of round sandalwood beads from his suit pocket. This was his father's legacy. He had been carrying it with him for more than 20 years. The sandalwood beads were smooth and shiny, and looked very expensive.

He stretched out his hand and placed the sandalwood bead bracelet into Huo Sijiao's palm.

"A wedding present for you." This is the most precious thing that belongs to him.

Since we are destined to be together but not destined to be together, I will just follow my heart and leave the most important thing to her.

"I can't have it. It's your father's legacy."

"After you accept it, I will never bother you again."

"Shen Xuanzhi, are you threatening me?"

"Huo Sijiao, I'm begging you." Shen Xuanzhi wanted to have a last bit of connection with Huo Sijiao, and having his things by her side was enough.

Huo Sijiao's fingers touched the string of sandalwood beads, and she felt a sour nose: "You never talked so much before. When facing me, you either had a cold face or spoke harshly. I still remember the night I came to your house to confirm your marriage with Guan Jingtan, and you said you hated me and didn't want to see me again."

It was the first time in her life that she liked a man so much, but her passion was extinguished by the wind and snow that night.

"I regret it, countless times. If... I didn't make that choice, if..."

If he hadn't wanted to use the Guan family for revenge, the person who would be engaged to Huo Sijiao today might have been him.

"Shen Xuanzhi, live a good life in the future. Today... is the last time we meet alone." Huo Sijiao said while holding the string of sandalwood beads, "I accept the gift, thank you."

"goodbye."

She looked at Shen Xuanzhi deeply, then walked forward holding up her skirt.

But something seemed more and more wrong.

Why is she getting hotter and hotter?

Her legs went weak and she had to hold on to the wall to avoid falling. She was a little confused and her vision was blurry.

A man in waiter-style clothes helped her up and said, "Miss Huo, are you okay? I'll help you go upstairs to rest."

"No……"

"You are drunk, I will help you."

The man had strong hands. He held her waist with one hand and covered her mouth with the other hand, and forcibly took her through the back door to the lounge on the second floor of the banquet hall.

"Let go...let go...mmmm..."

Huo Sijiao was brought into a dim room.

Feeling dead.

At the corner, Pei Chun showed a little smile.

Finally, a nuisance was eliminated. Now we just need to wait for someone to catch the adulterer. After this incident, Xie Xubai and Huo Sijiao's marriage will definitely fail.

She also had her chance.

"Hey, you're smiling in a lewd way here."

When Pei Chun heard the cute and clear female voice, he was startled and turned around to see that it was a little girl.

She said unkindly, "None of your business."

Feng Nanxi stared at Pei Chun with a sly smile in her eyes, "You didn't do anything bad here, did you?"

Pei Chun rolled her eyes and walked away in her high heels.

She had other things to do.

Feng Nanxi looked at the closed lounge on the second floor, wondering whether she should go in. But she heard footsteps on the stairs, and her figure disappeared into the darkness.

Seeing the person coming, she smiled.

It seems that there is no need for her to meddle in other people's business.

Stay for a few more minutes and see what the other person does.

She was even more surprised and appreciative. The people in the imperial capital were indeed willing to take revenge when they had a grudge!

At this moment, a commotion was heard from the banquet hall downstairs. Feng Nanxi glanced over and the smile on her face deepened.

Looks like it's really lively tonight!
