Chapter Thirty-Five: A Gamble(3/5)
"No manners? No way!"
Huo Jingliang looked surprised, shook his head and said:
"Who in the entire Hong Kong Comprehensive Market doesn't know that I, Huo Jingliang, is the most elegant person. But you, Howard, are engaged in real estate. In recent years, housing prices have been rising higher and higher. I don't know how many people have worked hard all their lives and cannot afford to buy a house. Speaking of which, it is
Who has no grace?"
"Dacid!"
Mrs. Ye frowned, caught in the middle, and looked at Huo Jingliang with some reproach. For a moment, the situation was very embarrassing.
"daddy!"
At this time, I heard a call and saw a young, beautiful, noble and refined woman walking over.
She wore a white evening dress with a simple cut, which was simple and elegant. It was completely different from some celebrities who exposed themselves in various ways for the sake of eye-catching effect.
She was wearing an evening dress, with long white gloves on her exposed arms, giving people the feeling of a loyal princess.
At this moment, there was a hint of anxiety on her face, and she walked directly in front of Huo Jingliang and separated him from Ye Xiaoli.
The visitor was quite familiar to Yaoyang. He had just met her a few days ago, Huo Jingliang's biological daughter, Huo Xixian.
Huo Xixian tonight is really beautiful!
When Huo Jingliang saw Huo Xixian, he handed the wine glass to Zhan Mizi behind him, lightly grabbed Huo Xixian's hand with both hands, and said loudly:
"Daughter, you came to your father's company yesterday. You didn't know about your mother's happy event without informing your father. Fortunately, your father was also having dinner at the Queen's Restaurant tonight, so he came over in time to congratulate you! It's a pity that I didn't buy any gifts, so I could only go empty-handed.
Already."
puff……
Hearing Huo Jingliang's words, Ding Shanben behind him couldn't help but almost laughed out loud.
Huo Jingliang had such a venomous tongue. Every word he spoke pierced his heart, as if he was afraid that others would not know that Mrs. Ye was his ex-wife.
Dad doesn't know what mom's happy event is. According to Huo Jingliang's words, people who don't know may think that he and Mrs. Ye are the real couple.
Ye Xiaoli's face changed after hearing this, and he wanted to scold Huo Jingliang:
"Huo..."
Fortunately, Mrs. Ye had quick eyesight and quick hands. She gently pulled Ye Xiaoli and said first:
"Howard, Lao He was looking for you earlier. Come on, let's go over and say hello!"
Ye Xiaoli took a deep breath. After all, he still knew that today was a happy event for his family. If it was ruined by Huo Jingliang, he would definitely be embarrassed.
"good!"
Responding to this word, Ye Xiaoli said:
"Dacid, I won't greet you anymore, you can do what you want, excuse me!"
After saying this, Ye Xiaoli asked Mrs. Ye and turned around to leave.
"Hahaha, some people are still talking about being graceful in front of me, Huo Jingliang. Now everyone knows, everyone has seen who has no grace!"
Huo Jingliang laughed, looking happy that he had the upper hand.
Yaoyang was next to Huo Jingliang with sharp eyes, but he found that Huo Jingliang's eyes never left Mrs. Ye's back, showing nostalgia, resentment and other emotions in his eyes.
Involuntarily, Yaoyang reached out and patted Huo Jingliang's shoulder.
But when he reached out, what Yaoyang touched was not the suit on Huo Jingliang's body, but his other hand.
The owner of that hand was startled. Taking advantage of the situation, his eyes met with Yaoyang's, and his cheeks instantly turned red:
"Brother Yaoyang, I didn't expect to see you here!" It turns out that the owner of that hand is none other than Huo Xixian. Huo Xixian knows Huo Jingliang better than anyone else, and of course he knows that Huo Jingliang speaks of authority and has always had affection for his mother in his heart.
Like today, when my mother is celebrating her tenth wedding anniversary, the protagonist is not Huo Jingliang. He must be very sad. He reaches out to comfort Huo Jingliang.
I just didn't expect that someone would agree with me and take action together.
Facing Huo Xixian, Yaoyang smiled slightly, nodded and said:
"Yes, I happened to be having dinner with Mr. Huo on the third floor tonight. I heard that there was a big scene down there, so I asked Mr. Huo to take me to see it. Helen, you look beautiful tonight!"
"Thanks!"
Huo Xixian lowered his head and said something happy, but his happy expression could not be hidden from Ren He.
"oh?"
When Huo Jingliang saw his daughter's appearance, he immediately broke away from the emotion of the confrontation with Ye Xiaoli and turned to gossip. He looked back at Yaoyang and said:
"Yao Yangzi, you and my daughter have met! That's fine. You young people should be quite bored at this kind of banquet, so why don't you just chat!"
Immediately, Huo Jingliang turned his head and said:
"Xianben, Lao Feng, Zhan Mizi, let's go. I also saw a lot of friends, all of whom are good partners in business. Anyway, it's a place where I belong, so I will take the lead and introduce it to you. I hope you will have more friends in the future.
Let’s cooperate.”
"Thank you Mr. Huo!"
The three of them responded, among them Ding Shanben and Zhan Mizi both winked at Yaoyang Weirdly, followed Huo Jingliang with smiles on their faces.
Huo Jingliang left, deliberately leaving space for Huo Xixian and Yaoyang.
The meaning is self-evident, which makes Huo Xixian shy and a little happy at the same time.
Yaoyang was thick-skinned and would not feel inappropriate. He took the initiative to smile and said:
"Helen, you're not ready to just stand here with me! Many people are looking at us, why don't you go sit over there?"
"ah?"
Huo Xixian couldn't help but look back, and sure enough, many guests were looking this way.
After all, the positions of Yaoyang and Huo Xixian were too exposed. When I looked at the door, I saw them first.

"Okay, Brother Yaoyang, let's go sit over there!"
Huo Xixian was a little embarrassed and nodded in agreement with Yaoyang's suggestion. The two walked to the corner together, where there happened to be two seats. After sitting down, they started chatting.
"Brother Yaoyang, I have read the newspapers this morning. The Central bombing was solved. It was you who led the anti-gangster team in Mong Kok to solve the problem day and night. You are really amazing. Within five days, today is the fifth time.
Oh my god, it’s a full day early!”
Huo Xixian's eyes showed admiration, he looked at Yaoyang and said, his good feelings undisguised.
"Ah!"
Yaoyang chuckled lightly and said:
"Don't all girls like gossip magazines? Do you also like to read current affairs news?"
"Brother Yaoyang, don't underestimate me! I just obtained my lawyer's license this year, and I can start working at any time. As a lawyer, you should care about current affairs."
Huo Xixian responded with words, his delicate little face was very serious.
"Mr. Huo is a celebrity in the financial industry, and he is your only daughter. Don't you plan to inherit your father's business? Why did you choose to be a lawyer?"
Yaoyang asked smoothly.
"I don't have dad's business talent!" Huo Xixian shook his head and responded:
"Besides, being a lawyer has always been my ideal. It's great. I can help many people in need, help the strong and the weak, just like Brother Yaoyang, you can be a policeman!"
"Ah!"
Yaoyang smiled again and shook his head slightly.
"Brother Yaoyang, do you think my ideas are naive?"
Huo Xixian was very smart, he understood immediately and said.
"No, it's just hard to imagine that you are Mr. Huo's daughter!"
Yaoyang joked. He never thought that Huo Xixian was serious and said:
"I was sent to the United States to study since I was a child, and I rarely stayed with my father..."
Yaoyang and Huo Xixian are chatting about life and the past here.
Huo Jingliang, along with Ding Shanben, Zhan Mizai and Feng Qianshan, walked through the banquet hall and felt at ease.
Huo Jingliang really didn't regard himself as an outsider. He was full of momentum and had a loud voice. He greeted many of his friends warmly and introduced them to Ding Shanben and the others.
Only Ding Rongbang could see it, his face was extremely ugly, and Mrs. Ding was also very embarrassed.
Fortunately, this situation did not last long, and ten minutes later, the banquet got down to business.
I saw a guy in a suit and leather shoes as bright as a mirror. He was obviously the master of ceremonies. He held a microphone in his hand and stood in the center of the banquet hall. He spoke through the microphone:
"Quiet, please be quiet!"
The guests in the banquet hall are all successful people. Everyone is familiar with this kind of dinner party and usually participates in it.
After hearing the master of ceremonies speak, everyone was very respectful, quieted down, and all looked at the center stage. "
