Chapter 42 The Banquet (Part 3)



People in this corner of the hall all turned their heads to look.

Xie Yulin just wanted to strangle this idiot.

People in the business world know about his affairs, but no one will say it openly.

This woman not only ruined his plans, but also made him lose face!

Xie Jingcheng put Chaochao down, and the little dumpling immediately ran towards her father.

Upon seeing this, Dong Qin immediately realized she had said the wrong thing and her face turned pale.

How could she... how could she be Huo Qin's daughter...?

The woman's first thought wasn't that she had offended President Xie, but rather that she was jealous of the little girl's privileged status.

Huo Qin took her hand and adjusted her coat, saying, "Don't run around."

Chaochao thought her father was worried that she would catch a cold, and immediately remembered the threat he had made to refuse to sleep last time. Alarm bells went off in her little head.

"That fuzzy coat was too hot, so my sisters gave me this one instead. It's really warm, I definitely won't catch a cold!"

As soon as Chaochao arrived at the hotel, she went into the VIP lounge on this floor.

Therefore, apart from those who are Mr. Huo's WeChat friends, other celebrities have basically never seen the focus of this banquet, the Huo family's little princess.

While Huo Qin went to the lobby to meet other people, hotel executives were looking after Chao Chao in the lounge.

Only Chaochao was in the room; she must be bored.

She shook the hem of Huo Qin's suit jacket.

At this moment, Xie Yulin looked at the stiff Dong Qin and said in a deep voice, "Why don't you apologize to Miss Chaochao right away?"

As the president's secretary, Dong Qin quickly composed herself, took a deep breath, and bent down.

"Miss Chaochao, I'm so sorry. I was blind and didn't recognize you. Please forgive me."

His expression was one of genuine regret.

Xie Jingcheng's lips curled into a cold smile; his acting skills were top-notch.

He glanced at his refined and gentle father beside him; they were birds of a feather.

Chaochao was completely baffled by Dong Qin's apology.

"Xiaoqi, why did she have to apologize?"

A three-year-old's brain capacity is limited. Dong Qin just said a lot of things that were meant to be sarcastic, but little did the child know that the child's little brain hadn't even processed it all.

The system translator is now online: "Baby, she just looked down on you."

"Huh?" Chaochao was shocked.

Huo Qin lifted his eyelids, his eyes cold and menacing.

"I do not accept it."

"You can leave now."

"Why?" Dong Qin looked up in disbelief.

Huo Qin was unwilling to say another word: "You are not qualified, get out."

Those were her words when she mocked the little girl.

Now he slapped her face exactly as it was.

"President Huo." Xie Yulin's gentle mask nearly crumbled. He chuckled awkwardly, "There's no need to make things so awkward. Secretary Dong didn't mean it, and besides, she has already sincerely apologized. A sensible child like you won't mind, right, Chaochao?"

Xie Yulin said the last sentence while looking at Chaochao.

Chaochao stared at him blankly.

After being reminded by the system, Chaochao tried hard to recall, and realized that the aunt was indeed not very friendly to her.

Even though Chaochao has a good temper, she was still a little unhappy.

But the uncle said that children shouldn't mind such things...

Chaochao lowered her head and didn't say anything.

A gift bag blocked Chaochao's view, obstructing Xie Yulin's view.

Xie Jingcheng's brows furrowed with a fierce look: "Dad, that's enough."

His icy gaze pierced Dong Qin.

"Does the fact that children are expected to be sensible mean that adults can be immature?"

"That's really getting worse and worse."

As he finished speaking, his gaze swept over Xie Yulin.

Innuendo.

Huo Qin looked at Chao Chao, who was hanging her head and remaining silent, and said with a slight smile, "Someone come here."

The hotel manager arrived quickly and inquired respectfully.

Huo Qin nodded slightly and said coldly, "Take her away."

"yes."

The manager looked at Dong Qin, whose face was ashen: "Madam, please."

After Dong Qin was "asked" to leave, Xie Yulin forced a smile and said, "President Huo, then regarding our cooperation—"

Huo Qin said calmly, "Mr. Xie, compared to cooperation, managing your personal relationships is more important."

Xie Yulin's face froze, and his gentle facade could no longer be maintained.

Watching Huo Qin's retreating figure, Xie Yulin felt resentful.

You're so high and mighty? If you're so high and mighty, how did you even get a daughter?!

Huo Qin led Chaochao back to the VIP lounge.

Chaochao sat on the sofa, and Huo Qin squatted down to look at her.

Are you unhappy?

Chaochao nodded, then shook her head, and held up two little fingers, "Only a little bit."

She wouldn't be that petty.

Huo Qin: "Then why don't you say so?"

The little girl said sullenly, "He said I need to be sensible."

He refers to Xie Yulin.

Huo Qin sneered.

Who does he think he is?

"You'd rather listen to a stranger than to me?"

Chao Chao was stunned. What did her father say?

Huo Qin said in a low voice, "I told you, if you're bullied, you should tell me."

In the old house where she used to live.

"If you feel unhappy, you should tell me."

As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes slightly, "I'm raising you, not so you can suffer."

The system sighed inwardly: Chaochao is now truly the villain's darling; she can't bear to suffer even the slightest grievance.

Chaochao stared blankly at her father. After ten seconds, she sweetly pounced on him and gave Huo Qin a big kiss on the handsome face.

"Chaochao understands."

As darkness fell, the city lights illuminated the city.

The banquet officially began.

The grand and magnificent exhibition hall is adorned with luxurious and dazzling crystal chandeliers hanging high, while melodious piano music flows out like a gurgling spring.
