After Huo Xiting helped Su Yaoyao choose a ring, he took her out to eat, and then they went to a styling salon to try on wedding dresses and makeup.
Su Yaoyao's thoughts were somewhat out of sorts. She had finished her makeup and changed her clothes.
She was as noble and elegant as a royal princess, and her dazzling beauty amazed everyone.
"My God, Miss Su is so beautiful."
"With Miss Su's figure and face, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she is the most beautiful woman in Nancheng."
Surrounded by a constant stream of praise, Su Yaoyao looked at herself in the mirror, but felt nothing at all.
"President Huo is out."
"Oh my god, Mr. Huo is so handsome too."
Huo Xiting walked out amidst a murmur of discussion.
He wore a black tuxedo, his figure tall and slender, his well-defined features appearing even softer under the warm lighting, and his long, narrow eyes filled with deep affection and tenderness.
Su Yaoyao could clearly see her own reflection in Huo Xiting's eyes.
"Yaoyao, you look so beautiful today."
He approached Su Yaoyao slowly, exuding a clean and gentle aura. His voice, as warm as a spring breeze, fell from above her head, and Su Yaoyao awkwardly touched the hair behind her ear.
"Thanks."
Hearing Su Yaoyao's words, Huo Xiting's eyes darkened, and he suddenly suggested, "Yaoyao, let's take a picture."
Su Yaoyao was stunned for a moment; "Take a picture?"
Huo Xiting's eyes deepened, and his smile became gentle and affectionate.
"Yes, I'd like to take a picture with Yaoyao like this, is that okay?"
Su Yaoyao asked, puzzled, "Why?"
"Can I take a picture with Yaoyao?"
Huo Xiting's smile was flawless, but for some reason, Su Yaoyao felt that Huo Xiting's smile was too perfect, so perfect that it seemed a little fake.
"good."
Su Yaoyao relented, and Huo Xiting's eyes lit up, as if they were filled with countless stars.
When the staff learned that Huo Xiting wanted to take photos, they immediately notified professionals to take pictures for them.
"You two, you can be a little more intimate."
"Come on, smile and show eight teeth."
Su Yaoyao's movements were stiff, and the smile on her face looked like she was wearing a mask.
The photographer was speechless. "Aren't you two about to get engaged? Why are you acting like strangers? Come on, the man, put your arm around the woman's waist, and the woman, lean against the man's chest. Don't smile too stiffly."
Upon hearing this, Su Yaoyao immediately regretted taking a picture with Huo Xiting. Huo Xiting glanced at Su Yaoyao, smiled, and suddenly reached out to grab and hold her hand.
Su Yaoyao looked up in confusion and saw Huo Xiting turn to look at the photographer and say something.
"She's a little shy and not used to being too intimate in front of people, so let's just take the picture like this."
Su Yaoyao looked at his gentle and handsome profile and was slightly surprised.
Huo Xiting, he...
He must know that he doesn't like being too close to him.
Su Yaoyao thought of many things at that moment.
When she thought about how Yu Qing forced her to get engaged to Huo Xiting, the first thing that appeared on the man's face was surprise, but when he saw her pale face, he pulled her away and prepared to leave.
Thinking about how she and Huo Xiting had lived under the same roof for so many days, yet he had never crossed any lines.
The only thing Huo Xiting did that went too far was sending her abroad against her will, even to the point of house arrest, but the trip abroad was not successful yet.
So Su Yaoyao didn't really hate Huo Xiting that much.
In particular, when she learned that the biggest reason Huo Xiting would target Yu Chiyan was because of family feuds.
With a "click".
"Okay, this one is good."
The photographer looked at the snapshot, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
In the video, Huo Xiting is holding Su Yaoyao's hand, gazing at the camera with a happy smile.
Su Yaoyao tilted her head slightly, her gaze falling on the man's handsome profile. Perhaps she was preoccupied with many thoughts at the time, for her eyes seemed gentle and tender, as if she were in a daze, reminiscing about their past.
Huo Xiting was very satisfied when he saw the photo.
Su Yaoyao didn't look, but quickly went to the dressing room to change her clothes.
When the two came out of the styling salon, it was already completely dark.
Huo Xiting drove Su Yaoyao back to the villa.
No sooner had the two left than Luo Tong's figure emerged from the night.
Only after Huo Xiting's car had completely disappeared did Luo Tong take out his phone and call Yu Qing, telling him everything that Su Yaoyao and Huo Xiting had done.
When Yu Qing heard that they had met Yu Chiyan at the jewelry store, he suddenly said something with a hint of regret.
"I wonder what Yu Chiyan would think if he knew that Su Yaoyao saw him being treated like a dog?"
Luo Tong lowered his eyes; "It's a pity that Yu Chiyan didn't know Su Yaoyao was there at the time."
"Hehe, there will always be a chance."
Yu Qing said coldly, then suddenly asked another question.
"How's the investigation going with what I asked you to do?"
When it came to business, Luo Tong frowned. "He Anrong hid that batch of goods very well, probably because he was afraid of being found out. He didn't dare to let out a word."
Yu Qing gave a cold laugh; "He is quite clever."
If it were discovered that He Anrong possessed items belonging to the Imperial Court, it would truly confirm that the Imperial Court was innocent.
The one who wronged Huangting was naturally the He family, who possessed Huangting's batch of goods.
Yu Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of coldness creeping into his voice: "No matter what, in these last two days, we must pry He Anrong's mouth open. That batch of stuff absolutely cannot be left behind."
He absolutely cannot allow the imperial court to have any chance of revival!
"I understand, sir."
Yu Qing hummed in agreement; "Yes, this matter should be completed no later than the day of Su Yaoyao and Huo Xiting's engagement banquet."
"yes."
As soon as Luo Tong finished speaking, the call was immediately cut off.
The man stood there for a moment, then his figure flashed and he disappeared into the night.
...
Meanwhile, a black figure nimbly leaped over the wall and landed silently in the villa's garden.
The newcomer was dressed in tight-fitting night clothes, with a shapely figure and beautiful curves; she appeared to be a woman.
With a long whip tucked at her waist, she easily avoided the bodyguards and servants patrolling the villa, and climbed up to the second floor along the buildings surrounding the villa.
With a light touch of her toes, she landed smoothly on the second-floor balcony.
The balcony window was open, as if it were waiting for someone.
Perhaps having heard the slight noise, a cold male voice came from inside the room.
"who?"
The woman in black spoke with utmost respect through a curtain.
"Master, they are about to make their move."
Upon hearing this, the man inside the room instantly opened his hawk-like eyes.
“Tell He Anrong that he has no choice but to cooperate with us.”
The woman in black replied in a low voice, "Understood, Master."
A gentle breeze blew by, causing the curtains on the balcony to sway, and in an instant, the figure vanished.
