Chapter 173 My Fiancee and I
Old Master Huo was not affected by the incident. He hadn't seen Shengxia for a long time. When he saw Shengxia, he couldn't wait to talk to her and took her to visit the Huo family while talking.
"Xia Xia, you don't know how happy Grandpa was when he found out that you and Ting Xiao were together..."
Sheng Xia looked at Mr. Huo's appearance and was deeply moved, "Grandpa Huo..."
"Don't worry, no one in the Huo family dares to bully you. If Ting Xiao dares to bully you, Grandpa will definitely beat him up!"
Mr. Huo smiled dotingly, "Don't look at me as old, but I'm still strong!"
Shengxia laughed, "Grandpa, have you forgotten that I am your attending physician?"
Mr. Huo was stunned for a moment, then he laughed.
"Oh my god, grandpa was actually exposed..."
The way the two of them were joking and laughing completely irritated Gong Yuqing who was not far away.
She clenched her palms tightly in hatred. It turned out that this was the difference between true love and not love. Mr. Huo had never been so enthusiastic towards her in the past!
Speaking of which, Gong Yuqing was so embarrassed that she wanted to just leave, but then she changed her mind and realized that she had prepared so much for this banquet, even giving away the paintings of the nameless master. Wouldn't it be a pity if she left now?
Besides, if she left now, wouldn't it prove that she had lost to Shengxia?
No, she can't give up!
She’s just my fiancée, and it’s her first time visiting. Who knows what might happen?
As long as Huo Tingxiao is not married, she still has a chance.
The most important thing right now is to make up for herself. She needs to resolve today's misunderstanding with Huo Tingxiao and continue to be friends with him. Only then can she get in touch with him better in the future and make him fall in love with her again.
Men are driven by the desire for novelty. They fall in love with every woman they meet. She will let him know who is the most suitable woman for him.
So, while Huo Tingxiao and Shengxia were alone together, she stepped forward decisively.
She did not choose to speak directly to Huo Tingxiao, but instead called Shengxia and spoke politely and kindly.
"I'm sorry, Miss Sheng, I didn't know it was you that day, otherwise I wouldn't have booked the entire store."
Gong Yuqing appears kind on the surface, but what she says exudes a strong sense of superiority.
"How about this, those clothes are still unopened at my house, I'll give you any one you like."
Shengxia, who originally thought that Gong Yuqing was really here to seek peace, immediately heard the contempt in her words.
But before she could say anything, Huo Tingxiao spoke coldly.
"I, Huo Tingxiao's woman, will not wear anyone else's clothes except the ones I buy."
Shengxia looked at him sideways, a smile on her lips.
This man really is...protective.
Huo Tingxiao glanced at Gong Yuqing coldly, "Or do you think that our Huo family can't afford to buy clothes? Do you need to send them?"
Gong Yuqing never expected that he would misinterpret her meaning like this, and hurriedly shook her head to explain.
"No, Tingxiao, that's not what I meant..."
"Ms. Gong, please call me Mr. Huo." Huo Tingxiao refused sternly, looking as if he didn't want to have anything to do with her.
"We are not in a relationship where we can use such intimate terms. I'm afraid my fiancée will misunderstand."
Sheng Xia was speechless. She had just been with Huo Tingxiao, so how could she have become his fiancée...
Gong Yuqing was very hurt. Why did Huo Tingxiao's attitude towards her become so bad?
Although my attitude towards her in the past wasn't very nice, but ignoring her is better than being hostile, right?
Seeing this, Shengxia said, "Miss Gong, you don't have to take what happened that day to heart. In fact, I'm very happy that you can buy all the clothes."
How could he not be happy? The store manager completed the annual KPI in just one day!
How could Gong Yuqing believe it? She just felt that Shengxia was speaking hypocritically.
Seeing that Shengxia and Huo Tingxiao were about to leave and her goal had not yet been achieved, Gong Yuqing directly called out to Huo Tingxiao.
"Ting...Mr. Huo!"
Huo Tingxiao looked back unhappily.
Gong Yuqing hesitated to speak, revealing a pitiful look, "I have something to talk to you about alone, is that ok?"
There is so much profound meaning in the tone that it is hard for people to think too much about it.
How could Shengxia not see that Gong Yuqing was still harboring evil intentions towards Huo Tingxiao? She turned her head to look at Huo Tingxiao, and saw nothing but disdain on his face.
Shengxia couldn't help laughing. This guy is really a straight man sometimes.
"Straight man" Huo Tingxiao immediately said: "My fiancée and I are one, and we can listen to anything together. If you have something to say, say it now, there is no time to waste."
Gong Yuqing didn't want to. If she couldn't be alone with Huo Tingxiao, then what was the point of saying all these things?
But she hesitated for only a few seconds before Huo Tingxiao was ready to pull Shengxia away.
Gong Yuqing was anxious and said immediately: "I don't know what happened today. My aunt invited me here just to attend the banquet!"
She spoke for a long time but received no response.
After a long while, Huo Tingxiao said coldly, "Are you done?"
Gong Yuqing nodded subconsciously, and then Huo Tingxiao and Shengxia left without hesitation.
Not said a word!
When had she, the eldest daughter of the Gong family, ever suffered such indifference and neglect?
So Gong Yuqing was so angry that her heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys all hurt!
But her upbringing did not allow her to lose her temper, so she could only swallow her anger silently.
She comforted herself that Huo Tingxiao was only so cold to him because Sheng Xia was there. When he got tired of that woman, he would naturally discover her good side.
She can't be impatient, she must stay calm!
After leaving, Shengxia teased Huo Tingxiao: "What? Your suitor?"
Huo Tingxiao thought Sheng Xia was angry, and hurriedly explained: "No, Xia Xia, it's just that the Gong family has always wanted to marry into the Huo family, so there are so many things going on, but I never agreed to it, and I didn't even take it to heart!"
"Xia Xia, except for you, I have never looked at any other woman straight in the eye..."
"Okay!" Seeing that Huo Tingxiao was about to swear, Shengxia interrupted him with a smile.
"I just asked casually, I don't take it seriously."
A family dinner at the Huo family turned into a farce before it even started. Everyone was a little cautious, fearing that Mr. Huo or Huo Tingxiao would be angered.
Unexpectedly, when the two saw Shengxia, they both smiled, which surprised everyone.
Oh my God, this granddaughter-in-law, who hasn't even married yet, is so highly regarded!
At the banquet, Mr. Huo personally asked Shengxia to sit next to him, and Huo Tingxiao naturally sat next to Shengxia. Being protected by the two most distinguished people in the Huo family, Shengxia felt very safe.
As the children of Mr. Huo, Huo Shu and Huo Geng naturally had to sit at the main table. Although Meng Meiqin had just caused trouble, she was allowed to sit at the main table out of consideration for Huo Tingxiao's face.
Therefore, the atmosphere at the main table is still very mysterious.
