Chapter 167 Chill
As the lights come on, the center of City A seems to be surrounded by thousands of bright lights. The neon-lit skyline and the stars complement each other, and a series of colorful paintings slowly unfold before your eyes.
The extended Lincoln stopped at the entrance of the banquet hall. The hosts of the dinner were the Huo family, one of the top wealthy families in City A. The identity of Mr. Huo was a mystery. He immigrated to Country M in his early years, but when he got old, he believed in returning to his roots and slowly shifted his focus back.
Originally Xu Chunian planned to wait for Jiang Huaixu to come over, but since A Li was here, she couldn't help but come over first.
As soon as she got off the car, she held Zhuzhu's hand, her eyes accurately caught Ali at the door, and she walked over while lifting her skirt.
Mr. Huo is a low-key person, so he only invited some long-term business partners to the dinner, so there weren’t too many people.
The high heels that Shen Qingli wore today were just delivered this morning. The heels were untreated and rubbed her feet a little. She moved around feeling uncomfortable.
Huo Jinnian stood beside her, noticed her strangeness, lowered his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
Shen Qingli smiled at him politely, "It's okay."
Huo Jinnian was about to say something when he was pushed past. "Ali, do you want to drink? I bought you three-point candy."
"Thank you, An Ning." Shen Qingli took the milk tea she handed over.
Huo Sheng on the side said, "Ali, if you are tired, go in and rest."
"No need bro, I'm not tired."
"Mom just had someone send over a pair of shoes. You can go in and change later." Huo Sheng was elegant and had a scent of books.
Shen Qingli nodded at her, a smile on her lips, "Okay."
Huo Jinnian stood behind them, like an outsider.
"Ali!"
"Niannian!" Shen Qingli's eyes lit up when she heard Xu Chunian's voice, "Zhuzhu."
Zhuzhu was wearing a puffy princess dress, soft and sticky like a glutinous rice dumpling, "Godmother."
She saw a man standing next to Shen Qingli, with his face raised, "Godfather."
"!"
After these words were spoken, several people's expressions changed.
Shen Qingli was stunned for a moment, then smiled softly and squatted down in front of her, "Zhuzhu, this is uncle."
Zhuzhu nodded, "I'm sorry, uncle."
Feeling the chill behind him, Huo Sheng raised his eyebrows, "It's okay."
Huo Anning liked the soft human cubs, "Your name is Zhuzhu?"
She pointed at the piggy doll in Zhuzhu's hand and asked, "Is that this piggy?"
Huo An Ning, like Xu Chunian, has a very different appearance and personality.
Zhuzhu pointed at herself with her little finger and said, "Tie this Zhuzhu."
"So cute." Huo Anning was simply melted by the cuteness, "Can I pinch your little face?"
Zhuzhu thought for a moment and stretched her little face in front of her.
Huo Anning, the groundhog, screamed and touched her soft little face.
Xu Chunian smiled at them and said, "Guests are coming. We need to go in and say hello to Auntie."
Zhuzhu waved to them, "Bye, auntie. Bye, uncle."
Huo Jinnian's eyes were fierce, and Zhuzhu looked at him timidly.
Shen Qingli lifted her skirt and said, "I'll go in with you. I'll go change my shoes."
Huo Anning looked at them and said, "Ali and Miss Xu have such a good relationship. When will I have such a lovely goddaughter?"
Huo Jinnian glanced at her and said, "Why call me Ah Li? That's rude."
There were so many people here today that Huo An Ning wasn't afraid of him. She whispered, "Just call me Ah Li. I can't count on you anyway. We can still be good sisters after the divorce. You damn scumbag."
"What did you say?"
"Brother, look at him!"
Huo Sheng smiled helplessly and pushed his glasses.
