Chapter 24 Jiang Qia shuddered
Mr. Huo said, "Wen Yi, I heard that you are working on a new project. The Huo family is also interested in investing in it. Let's work together."
Huo Wenyi rejected his proposal outright: "Project investments are not public. Besides, today is Grandpa's birthday, so we shouldn't talk about work."
Mr. Huo waited for so many days just for this matter.
He originally thought that Huo Wenyi would give him a surprise and would bring the Huo family along if there was an opportunity to make money.
If the project goes smoothly, the Huo family will earn at least tens of billions or even hundreds of billions.
Huo Wenyi has been successful in almost everything he has done over the years and has rarely experienced failure in his career.
Outsiders all want to get a piece of the pie when he invests in something.
When Huo Tianlei saw Huo Wenyi refused, he couldn't help but roll his eyes at Huo Wenyi.
Lu Huilan said sarcastically, "Wen Yi, today is your grandfather's birthday. Can't you fulfill such a small wish of your grandfather?"
Jiang Qia was really shocked by this shameless couple.
A small wish?
These small wishes are equivalent to dozens of small goals in someone's mouth.
Huo Wenyi's attitude remained cold and tough: "Let's not talk about business today."
Mrs. Huo was also dissatisfied: "Alas, Jiang Qia just said that you are filial."
Seeing this, the other onlookers began to talk in low voices.
Some young people who had a good relationship with Huo Xiulin couldn't help but pour cold water on him.
"Mrs. Huo is right. Today is the old man's birthday, and we should fulfill his wish."
"If I don't fulfill the old man's wish, how can I be called filial?"
"If my grandpa wants something for his birthday, I'll give it to him."
“…”
Seeing that Lu Huilan and Madam Huo turned the situation around with just a few words, Jiang Qia's eyes turned cold.
In any case, Jiang Qia and Huo Wenyi are now husband and wife.
In front of so many people, the husband and wife's reputations are the same, they prosper together and suffer together.
In front of so many people, Jiang Qia couldn't let Huo Wenyi take the blame for being unfilial.
What's more, what Jiang Qia just said cannot be contradicted.
Jiang Qia sighed: "Alas, as expected, Brother Wen Yi didn't grow up in the Huo family, so grandpa and grandma are a bit harsh on him."
Everyone's attention returned to Jiang Qia again.
In the past, Jiang Qia often appeared on such occasions.
However, people rarely paid attention to her, and even if they did, their impression of her was that she was a burden brought about by Shang Xinmei's second marriage.
Or maybe people think Jiang Qia is a cheap, easy-to-marry socialite with a pretentious personality.
Jiang Qia stood here today. He looked the same as before, but he was inexplicably eye-catching.
Every frown and smile has an indescribable feeling.
Jiang Qia said, "My brother-in-law didn't prepare anything, but Grandpa and Grandma never said he was unfilial. Brother Wen Yi prepared a gift, but Grandpa and Grandma actually asked for more. If they didn't agree, they would be unfilial... But, shouldn't we discuss company matters with the higher-ups first? Brother Wen Yi is also acting cautiously."
After Jiang Qia said this, some people who had just been led astray reacted instantly.
yes.
Huo Xiulin hadn't prepared anything, but Mrs. Huo was still very proud of her grandson.
Huo Wenyi and Jiang Qia showed their filial piety, but the Huo family wanted more.
Under normal circumstances, shouldn't the Huo family compensate Huo Wenyi?
After all, it was Huo Wenyi who had been living outside for so many years and suffered so much.
Seeing that Huo Wenyi was so cautious in company affairs and was not easily influenced by his family, some business and political elites had a better impression of him.
Being in the same circle, cooperation is inevitable in the future.
It is much better to cooperate with a cautious and rational person like Huo Wenyi than with some brainless people who talk nonsense.
Huo Wenyi is a man, and he is the president of a group worth hundreds of billions.
You definitely can't show too much emotion, and you can't say things like you feel wronged.
You must maintain a steady and elegant demeanor in front of others.
Old Master Huo took advantage of this point and deliberately sent Huo Wenyi on board just now.
Now, seeing Jiang Qia using aggrieved tone, in just a few words, he not only took the burden off Huo Wenyi, but also returned the pressure to the Huo family.
Old Master Huo smiled and said, "Grandpa was just joking with you. How could we possibly discuss business in this kind of situation? Just be here, there's no need to prepare any gifts."
The banquet continued, and Mr. Huo went to talk to some people who came forward to toast him.
Lu Huilan almost bit her teeth to pieces.
Old Madam Huo felt even more uncomfortable.
Lu Huilan said, "Jiang Qia used to be a brainless idiot. Why is he so quick to react today?"
She and Old Madam Huo watched Jiang Qia grow up.
Both of them felt that Jiang Qia was a burden brought to the Wu family by Shang Xinmei and was completely unworthy of Huo Xiulin.
So, after discovering that Jiang Qia and Huo Wenyi were drunk and disheveled together, Mr. Huo asked Huo Wenyi to be responsible for Jiang Qia and marry Jiang Qia.
After all, Jiang Qia is not only a fool, but also has a crush on Huo Xiulin.
After she married Huo Wenyi, she was able to monitor Huo Wenyi's various movements and obtain various intelligence from him.
In this way, it would be easier for the giant Huo family to slowly devour Huo Wenyi's property and assets.
As a result, today, Jiang Qia actually spoke up for Huo Wenyi in various ways and didn't even look at Huo Xiulin.
Mrs. Huo called Jiang Qia over.
Huo Wenyi's mother died early, and Jiang Qia now has no mother-in-law. Old Madam Huo is her mother-in-law's mother-in-law.
For such elders, you must do enough superficial work.
Jiang Qia stepped forward: "Grandma, what can I do for you?"
Madam Huo looked at Jiang Qia's clothes critically: "You look so ugly today. Girls should wear more colorful clothes. How can you look good in black and white for a banquet?"
Jiang Qia looked around and said, "But I see many people are wearing black clothes or white dresses."
Mrs. Huo looked dissatisfied: "You are different from them. In the future, when the elders speak, don't talk too much. As a daughter-in-law of the Huo family, you must abide by the rules."
Jiang Qia forgot how Mrs. Huo was killed by Huo Wenyi in the original text.
It was probably either a car accident or a fall from a building.
Now that he thought about it, Jiang Qia cursed Mrs. Huo for being mean when she treated him in this way.
With this attitude towards Huo Wenyi, it’s no wonder that Huo Wenyi turned evil and turned the table over.
When you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.
In order to avoid her long-winded accusations, Jiang Qia did not refute her and let all her words go in one ear and out the other.
Madam Huo asked, "Cha Qia, what have you learned about Wen Yi these days?"
Jiang Qia: “…”
She suddenly remembered that the original owner had often secretly inquired about Huo Wenyi's affairs and told them.
But now, after getting on board the Huo family and working with this group of unlucky people, his final fate is either a car accident or falling from a building.
Or even worse, like Huo Tianlei, being dragged to the basement and torn into pieces.
Jiang Qia shuddered.
