My newlywed husband is infertile, but I’m pregnant
Chapter 858 The Charming Fairy
In addition to Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou, the Huo family also has a bodyguard named Lao Chen who follows them closely.
There were four bodyguards in black behind him. They looked tough and had sharp eyes and were not people to be trifled with.
They actually brought so many people to the banquet. They were really careful.
Pei Zheng smiled faintly: "Boss Huo is so cautious when he goes out that he even brings five bodyguards. Is he afraid that something might go wrong at our Pei family's banquet?"
"Well, I'm afraid."
Huo Xingzhou spoke briefly and to the point, without giving Pei Zheng any face.
Pei Zheng felt very unhappy when he saw that he didn't even say polite words.
He said sarcastically: "Mr. Huo is really a coward."
Huo Xingzhou's eyes were calm, and he said calmly, "Not long ago, someone almost died at the Thirteen Bay Wharf, and even Zhong Yi almost died there. Then there was a fire that no one could find out. Mr. Pei can't manage his own backyard well, but I can't let my wife and children take risks."
Is this a mockery?
Absolutely!
Pei Zheng smiled with a fake smile: "Boss Huo is really a good man."
"Thanks for the compliment."
"Since you are here, please come in. The sea breeze is cold. Don't let your wife get frozen."
"If Mr. Pei wasn't blocking the road, we would have gone in long ago." Huo Xingzhou put his arm around Qiao Xi's shoulders and went in from the side.
The bodyguards also followed.
Pei Zheng stared at their backs and said, "Find a few people to watch them and make sure they don't do anything weird. There is no room for error at tonight's banquet."
"Yes, young master."
Pei Zheng rubbed his fingers, some grudges would be taken care of some other day!
The banquet hall was very lively.
Many guests were chatting with each other while holding glasses of wine, and some single young men and women were walking around, seemingly looking for opportunities.
Qiao Xi said softly: "Are we just here to attend the banquet today?"
The Huo family doesn’t have to come to the Pei family’s banquet.
Huo Xingzhou said calmly: "Just watch the fun and help out."
He is busy just because it is convenient for him to do so.
Qiao Xi frowned in confusion: "Why don't I know who else you want to help?"
"You'll know when it's over."
Another betrayal.
Qiao Xi did not continue to ask, but looked towards the banquet hall.
The cruise ship was decorated very gorgeously, like a fantasy. The dazzling crystal lamps fell, illuminating the magnificent banquet hall, adding a bit of nobility. She smelled a strong fragrance, and a young woman in a red dress holding a wine glass, with wavy hair and twisting her waist, came over.
"Mr. Huo, nice to meet you. I've heard that you are handsome and extraordinary. Seeing you today, I can see that you are indeed extraordinary."
The woman seemed like a fairy, her tone of voice and eyes were full of seduction.
She is very beautiful, comparable to Guan Jingtan.
But she is more worldly than Guan Jingtan.
Huo Xingzhou didn't even look at her, let alone say a word.
The woman was not angry, nor did she pester him. Instead, she turned to the next target, roaming around the scene like a butterfly.
Qiao Xi asked curiously: "Who is that?"
Old Chen reminded softly, "She is the younger sister of Zhao Yaru, the wife of the eldest son of the Pei family. She just returned to China after her divorce. She is a famous socialite abroad. She has hooked up with many people with her beautiful looks and figure."
"Isn't Pei Zheng the most concerned about his reputation? Can he allow his sister-in-law to ruin the family reputation?"
"Young Madam, you don't understand this. Many of the Pei family's overseas connections and businesses are made through Zhao Zhenmei. Men always ignore some details, such as face, when it comes to interests."
It turned out to be the case.
"Then she just now..."
"He is trying to seduce our young master. If there is no chance, let's move on to the next one."
This is casting a wide net.
Qiao Xi looked over in the direction of her figure and discovered that Zhao Zhenmei had already started talking to a young man.
Her every move and gesture is full of natural charm.
After a few tricks, the young man was coaxed into a state of confusion, his eyes were full of obsession, and he wished he could pay with his life.
Qiao Xi marveled at her ability and asked, "Did she return to China because of the divorce? Or was there another reason?"
Huo Xingzhou did not give a direct answer, but just said: "Zhong Lingxiao is also divorced."
The meaning of this statement is very clear.
Zhao Zhenmei wanted to get in touch with Zhong Lingxiao, or it could be said that the Pei family wanted Zhao Zhenmei and Zhong Lingxiao to get closer.
Qiao Xi pursed her lips. The water in the upper class was indeed very deep. One could easily be drowned without even noticing.
Huo Xingzhou pinched her fingers and said, "Go sit for a while. Your waist is uncomfortable if you stand all the time."
Qiao Xi nodded obediently: "Okay, go and do what you want."
Huo Xingzhou really had something to do, so he left after leaving Lao Chen behind.
Qiao Xi didn't dare to drink anything here. She carefully observed the noisy banquet hall. In the middle of the banquet hall was a small stage, where a band was playing. Behind her was a huge screen with changing images.
On the side is a spiral staircase decorated with flowers and silk.
The lights are very bright, and such a gorgeous and luxurious environment can easily make people forget who they are and where they are. They will only be immersed in such an atmosphere and find it difficult to wake up.
Qiao Xi looked around but didn't see Zhong Yi.
He accepted the Pei family's invitation, so why hasn't he come yet?
"Old Chen, is Zhongyi here?"
Lao Chen said softly, "I didn't see it. I looked for it when I came in. Maybe Mr. Zhong came early and went to the lounge, or maybe he hasn't come yet."
"Where is his lounge?"
"Second floor."
"Then come with me and look for it."
Lao Chen was a little hesitant, but finally agreed.
"Young Madam, please follow me and be careful."
Qiao Xi followed Lao Chen, holding up her skirt, and walked to the lounge on the second floor. Many of the lounges on the second floor had their doors open, and some guests were putting on makeup. When they saw Qiao Xi's familiar face, they couldn't help but take a second look.
If we were to say who has the best luck in the entire imperial capital, it would be Madam Huo Shao.
Qiao Xi ignored the gazes falling on her, and looked at the names marked on the house numbers one by one, and finally her eyes fell on a closed door.
Favorite room.
She raised her hand to knock on the door when she heard a strange laugh.
"It's said that Madam Huo and the second son of the Zhong family were childhood sweethearts, and their relationship was ambiguous. I didn't expect that as soon as Mr. Huo left, you couldn't wait to look for your old lover. You really deserve Mr. Huo."
At the other end of the corridor, Mrs. Pei, wearing an elegant gown and holding a glass of red wine in her hand, walked over swayingly.
She is still accompanied by her daughter-in-law Zhao Yaru.
A hint of coldness appeared on Qiao Xi's face.
Enemy road is narrow.
"Mrs. Huo, you have nothing to say? It seems like you have something to hide. It feels good to have two relationships at the same time, right?" Mrs. Pei felt hatred when she thought of the scene where this little bitch teased her in the studio and wasted more than 8 million yuan.
I wanted to smash her pretty little face.
