didn't dare to think about what would happen then. 。But Xia's safety she couldn't ignore, "You have someone send her back" 。Huo Mingzheng silently looked at her for a while, let out a cold snort, and...It was almost nine o'clock when I got back to Huo's Manor. The engagement banquet had long ended, and the manor was brightly lit.

All those with one-, two-, three-, four-, and five-bedroom homes are here.

Fu Yan entered the door first calling out "Grandfather," then greeting everyone from her eldest uncle onwards.

When it came to the Fourth Uncle's turn, I couldn't help but meet Fu Jing's gaze. In just a few days, he had lost weight, and there was a subtle shift in his entire aura.

He was dressed in a dark suit, his brow furrowed, looking even more mature and composed than before, but with a touch of melancholy.

Fu Yan moved her gaze away without a sound. Fu Jing secretly clenched his fists, his eyes falling on Huo Mingzheng who had come in with her.

After the greeting, Fu Yan sat down beside Song Qing霜 and whispered, "Mom, are you feeling better"

Song Qing霜's spirit was much better than before, mainly because yesterday she heard the scandal of the Shen family. Thinking about how she had been bullied by Mrs. Shen and her daughter in the past, she felt that karma was at play and was happy and healthy.

Today, I attended a wedding banquet and put on makeup. I looked radiant!

"As soon as she saw Fu Yan, she couldn't help but nag: 'Look, even Huo Jingshu has a boyfriend now, and he's from the Fu family. Do you know the Fu family They are only second to the Huo family in terms of power. In the future, the Fourth House will look down on us even more. If you could marry someone like that, what would I have to worry about'"

"You're here again." Fu Yan frowned.

Now that Chen had stopped causing trouble, she started up again.

From her side, Huo Mingzheng walked past without a trace of movement on his lips.

Today, besides Huo Mingzheng and Fu Yan, as well as Huo Yuan who is recuperating abroad, everyone else attended the engagement party.

"Fu Jing, this is your second brother."

At the head of the table, Old Master Huo sat in a master's chair, holding rosary beads in his hand, and pointed towards Huo Mingzheng.

Fu Jing stood up. He was over six feet tall, his aura undiminished as he met his gaze. "Second brother,"

The tail of the tone rose slightly, with a hint of mockery and coldness that only those in power could understand.

Ho Mingzheng chuckled lightly, his gaze sweeping over Huo Jingshu who had also stood up and was holding onto his arm. "Jingshu has grown up. In the future, you should live a good life with your own husband. Don't be so willful anymore."

Huo Jingshu knew that she could be engaged to Fu Jing because Huo Mingzheng had told the old grandfather. She was overjoyed and couldn't wait. Hearing him say this, she laughed without any pretense: "I know, second brother, don't worry, I don't act like a child."

Old Master Huo then pointed at Fu Yan, “That’s Xiao Fu, she is the child of the late Fifth Uncle's family. According to her age, she should call you sister-in-law.”

Fu Yan stood up and said calmly, "Brother-in-law."

Fu Jing's throat felt sour and bitter, a mouthful of air stuck in his lungs for a long time before he finally managed a muffled "um."

Huo Jingshu took his arm and showed off to Fu Yan, "Fu Yan, you have to hurry up too. I think Wu's mother is almost going crazy with worry. You should get married soon too."

No matter what, whether it was studying or being pursued, Fu Yan always put her down a notch. She tried her best to get second place, but Fu Yan would always be first. The boys pursuing Fu Yan were always more numerous than those pursuing her, even far more so.

Having finally beaten Fu Yan in something, how could she possibly pass up the chance to show off

"Thank you for your concern, Fifth Sister," Fu Yan said softly, with a faint smile.

Unmoved, Huo Jing's anticipation of victory felt hollow. It was like punching a pillow – utterly pointless. This rouge is truly irritating; it holds no thrill whatsoever!

When Mrs. Du Xiner saw her daughter struggling, she smiled faintly and said, "Fu Yan has such good conditions, and she's so beautiful, how could she not find a boyfriend Besides, she still has her mother there. Her older sisters have experience, they can teach Fu Yan well how to capture a man's heart."that was hidden from view.
