BXBX NOVEL Chapter 283: The Huo family has a second young master
At the banquet, cups were exchanged, and Murong Qiao and An Nuo stayed at the corner of the banquet, holding a glass of wine and chatting.
"Sure enough, without Huo Yichen, I feel like you can\'t cheer up," Anonu teased her.
It has been more than half an hour since they arrived at the banquet.
Said it was relaxation, but relying on his familiarity with Murong Qiao, An Nuo naturally noticed that Murong Qiao was a little absent-minded.
Murong Qiao sighed, "He hasn\'t recovered from his injury, he should still be recuperating in the hospital right now."
An Nuo\'s words just hit her heart, and Murong Qiao didn\'t deny it.
She was indeed thinking about Huo Yichen all the time. She was so busy today that she didn\'t go to the hospital to see him, and her heart was empty.
"He is very physically fit, don\'t worry so much." An Nuo patted her on the shoulder.
Huo Yichen had a car accident, she heard about it from Murong Qiao the next day after the accident.
No one can predict this kind of accident, but fortunately, nothing happened.
Just as the two were standing in the corner talking and chatting, they saw some movement at the main entrance, as if someone had come.
"I heard that the Huo family has also received an invitation this time. It should be Master Huo who is here!"
"Really? Then let\'s go and see—"
Murong Qiao heard a few young ladies discussing quietly not far away, the excitement on his face was obvious.
The word "Master Huo" made her think of Huo Yichen in an instant, but when she thought that he was still in the hospital, she felt even more puzzled.
Is it possible that the Huo family has a second young master?
Murong Qiao looked towards the main entrance, and her puzzled eyes caught Huo Xiuyuan who was walking in from the door. The distance between them was enough for her to see Huo Xiuyuan\'s face clearly.
And Huo Yichen didn\'t think about it at all, the smile on Huo Xiuyuan\'s face made him always look gentle and gentle, which made people feel close, while Huo Yichen was the opposite cold, just looking at him made him feel that he was not easy to get close to.
"Huo Xiuyuan? Why is he here too?" An Nuo\'s slightly surprised voice caught Murong Qiao\'s attention.
She took a look at Huo Xiuyuan, obviously smiling, but it made her feel dazzling and out of harmony for no reason.
Murong Qiao turned to look at An Nuo, "You know each other?"
An Nuo shook his head and quickly denied it.
"I heard that he is the nephew of Patriarch Huo, and he seems to have always been highly valued." She thought for a while and answered. "Before Huo Yichen came back, many people speculated whether he would inherit the Huo family."
No wonder it can be called Master Huo.
Murong Qiao\'s gaze fell on the other party with a bit of probing. Huo Xiuyuan seemed to be good at chatting. Since he entered the arena, he had been surrounded by water, but his expression and demeanor seemed to be able to handle it with ease.
Murong Qiao also paid special attention to the second half of An Nuo\'s sentence.
"..." Murong Qiao had a faint guess in his mind.
If Huo Yichen didn\'t come back, then the heir of the Huo family should fall on Huo Xiuyuan.
Murong Qiao\'s eyes slowly fell into the wine glass in his hand, watching the yellowish and clear wine swaying in it, drawing beautiful traces.
The car accident... probably wasn\'t an accident.
Although Murong Qiao never liked to use bad thoughts to speculate on others, judging from the stakes between Huo Xiuyuan and Huo Yichen, if this car accident was man-made, then Huo Xiuyuan would be the biggest beneficiary.
Murong Qiao, whose thoughts were getting more and more divergent, thought of Huo Yichen being injured because of this, and a trace of displeasure appeared between his brows.
"Cough."
As if feeling that Murong Qiao was thinking about him, Huo Xiuyuan suddenly covered his nose and coughed lightly.
He wanted to sneeze for no reason, but fortunately, he reacted quickly enough so that he didn\'t make a fool of himself in front of everyone.
The daughter closest to him saw this and hurriedly cared for him, "If Mr. Huo is unwell, I happen to know the location of the guest room, why don\'t you take a rest first."
She reacted very quickly and snatched up the words, which made the few daughters next to her a little embarrassed. They couldn\'t express their concern for Huo Xiuyuan, so they received a lot of stares.
"It\'s okay, maybe it\'s a little cold, I\'m afraid it will infect a few ladies." Huo Xiuyuan smiled again.
He said thoughtful words, but in fact, his eyes swept around the whole banquet, looking for the goal in his heart, and he gradually became impatient.
Come to the banquet this time to join in the fun, Huo Xiuyuan\'s actual purpose is to find Murong Qiao.
Now that Huo Yichen is recuperating in the hospital, he just took advantage of this opportunity to sneak in between him and Murong Qiao. If he can win Murong Qiao\'s heart, he will get great help on his way to get the position of Patriarch.
But the result made him irritated, Huo Xiuyuan turned his eyes around and couldn\'t find Murong Qiao, and he couldn\'t help wondering if the other party didn\'t come at all.
He got a little impatient.
Murong Qiao stood in the corner of the banquet, just in time to see the cold look in Huo Xiuyuan\'s eyes clearly.
This further deepened her doubts. Murong Qiao\'s intuition was particularly strong for Huo Xiuyuan, prompting her to think about it and find out.
"An Nuo, I\'ll leave for a while." Murong Qiao confessed.
No matter what, this Huo Xiuyuan is very suspicious, so let\'s test it first to see what level the other party is.
With this thought in mind, Murong Qiao stepped towards where Huo Xiuyuan was standing.
But just halfway through this short distance, he was stopped by a short-sighted person.
"Miss Murong, it\'s a coincidence that we meet again." A familiar male voice suddenly appeared.
Cheng Juan, whom he hadn\'t seen for a long time, appeared from some corner, and suddenly stopped in front of Murong Qiao, and greeted her with a self-conscious smile.
Murong Qiao was forced to stop, "...Long time no see."
These four words seemed to be squeezed out between the teeth, with forbearance and raging anger and indescribable aggrievedness.
After seeing Cheng Juan\'s annoying face, Murong Qiao\'s irritability went up to a higher level. She only felt that this person was an eyesore.
It\'s not good when to come out, but this is the time to come out.
She pretended to glance in Huo Xiuyuan\'s direction casually, and the sight of him still standing there chatting with someone relieved Murong Qiao\'s anxiety a little.
is just a little bit.
"I didn\'t expect to meet Miss Murong when I came to Mr. Han\'s banquet this time." Cheng Juan made a surprised expression. "Could it be that Miss Murong is also interested in wine?"
Actually, he saw Murong Qiao\'s existence just now, but the other party was always with An Nuo, which made it difficult for him to attack, so Cheng Juan could only stare at Murong Qiao secretly.
Now that Murong Qiao was leaving, he immediately seized the opportunity to post it.
"Just curious." Murong Qiao responded indifferently.
She really didn\'t want to talk too much nonsense with Cheng Juan, but in fact the road in front of her was strictly blocked by Cheng Juan. If the other party didn\'t move out of the way, there was nothing she could do.
Murong Qiao looked to the side, if he changed the way to find Huo Xiuyuan, he would have to make a big detour, not to mention wasting time if someone ran away, it would be more harm than good.
She frowned, feeling that Cheng Juan was noisy.
"Curiosity is the beginning of interest. Speaking of which, I have traveled overseas and have researched a lot of wine..." Cheng Juan got a response, and immediately eloquent.
However, Murong Qiao is not at all interested in his so-called "research".
There is only one idea left in her mind—
That is to tell Cheng Juan to get out of the way and not to hinder her.
