Li Cheng's words also gave Li Nianqi a way out.

She stepped aside, stood behind Li Cheng and said, "Dad, it's my fault. I was talking too much and made them unhappy."

Li Cheng taught him a lesson: "Why haven't you changed your straightforward temper? This is not a foreign country, you should be careful with your words."

"Yes, Dad."

There is a harmonious relationship between father and daughter.

Li Cheng turned around and looked at Huo Xingzhou apologetically and said, "Mr. Huo, I'm so sorry. I spoiled my daughter. She doesn't think much before she speaks or does anything. I'm sorry to make you laugh. You are honored guests today. Please come in."

Huo Xingzhou said calmly: "I thought Mr. Li was going to say that his daughter is still young and asked us to be more patient."

"No way! I will teach her well in the future so as not to cause you unnecessary trouble."

"Then Mr. Li, please keep a good eye on your daughter. I don't want my wife to be disturbed by her again. I don't want her to say some inexplicable words, and I don't want to be entangled by her."

The smile on Li Cheng's face could hardly be maintained.

He nodded quickly and said yes.

The Li family can only be considered a second- or third-rate family in the imperial capital, and is obviously far behind the Huo family.

But Li Cheng is ambitious, and there is a great opportunity in front of him. As long as he can get in touch with the Pei family, after a few years, maybe the Li family will also stand at the top of the imperial capital.

"I hope Mr. Li is not just being perfunctory. I heard that you are going to choose a son-in-law for your daughter today. I don't know who is so honored to catch your eye. Can you share it with us?"

Huo Xingzhou will not give up easily.

He also wants to counterattack.

This makes it impossible for Li Cheng to find a good family to marry into today.

Li Nianqi said that and did something so shameless. Who would put their face in front of someone and hit him in public?

Even if Li Cheng had a suitable partner in mind, he didn't dare to say it out loud for fear of messing things up.

You can only break your teeth and swallow it in your stomach.

"Mr. Huo, you misunderstood. Tonight is my welcome party for my return to the capital. Nianqi is still young, and I want to keep her for a few more years. When she grows up, I will find her a good husband. As parents, we just want our children to be happy."

Huo Xingzhou said so, how could Li Cheng still have the nerve to find a fiancé for his daughter tonight?

Li Nianqi gritted her teeth, and her vicious eyes swept over Qiao Xi from time to time.

This bitch has always been an eyesore.

"Mr. Huo, please come in. Speaking of which, my old lady and your wife have some connections. We should interact more often." Li Cheng was very respectful to Huo Xingzhou and gave him enough face.

Huo Xingzhou didn't say much, but took Qiao Xi into the banquet hall.

He's just here tonight to go through the motions.

He knew Pei Zheng was here, and perhaps he had discussed many illegal things with Li Cheng.

He wanted to find an opportunity to see if he could find out the specific time of Pei Zheng's next smuggling and catch him in the act.

Completely defeat the Pei family!

So he gave Sun Weimeng a wink.

Sun Weimeng is a very lucky person!

No one knew how he got here, but he was able to find out so much gossip.

Sun Weimeng understood his look, so he walked into the banquet hall with a glass of wine in his hand and started chatting with people. He had a natural magic that allowed him to talk to anyone in social situations.

Huo Xingzhou patted Qiao Xi's shoulder gently and said, "Let's go sit over there for a while. Your waist is sore from standing for so long."

"it is good."

Qiao Xi nodded.

It is indeed much harder to be pregnant with twins, but fortunately she is not very old.

She followed Huo Xingzhou to the corner and did not touch the snacks sent by the Li family. The Li family had Li Nianqi, so she did not need to take risks. That girl was crazy and could do anything.

But I didn't expect that she would really return to China this time. It seems that the old lady of the Li family can no longer control her.

The Li family is also destined to go downhill.

Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou sat in a corner, chatting close to each other, and seemed to be on good terms.

Li Nianqi was staring at him from a distance, feeling extremely hateful!

The man she fell in love with only had Qiao Xi in his eyes.

Li Nianqi waved her hand and asked a maid to pass on the message: "Go and tell Mr. Huo that my father wants to see him for something, and hopes to invite him to the study to have a good talk."

"Yes, Miss."

She had to lure Huo Xingzhou out.

Li Nianqi didn't have any perfect plans in her head, she could only achieve her goals in a crude and simple way.

She watched the maid approach Huo Xingzhou and say a few words, but Huo Xingzhou remained unmoved and did not even stand up.

The maid walked to Li Nianqi awkwardly and said, "Boss Huo said he has nothing to say to Mr., if Mr. really has something important, he can come and talk to him. He has to accompany his wife now and has no time to deal with irrelevant people."

Snapped!

Li Nianqi raised her hand and slapped him: "You useless thing, you can't even do anything you ask of you. Can't you make up another excuse to trick him?"

"Miss, I just followed your instructions. Wasn't it Mr. who was looking for Mr. Huo? It was you who wanted...Miss, Mr. told you not to do anything rash. Many important people came tonight, and our Li family cannot lose face."

"You said I was embarrassing? Who gave you the guts? Get out of here!"

The maid covered her face and walked away with red eyes.

However, Xia Sisi saw this scene. She thought this was a good opportunity, and it was too difficult to get information from Zhao Qin and the Li family.

Li Nianqi is a good breakthrough point. As a member of the Li family, she should know a lot of inside information.

If she could get a few words, coupled with the man's planning, Zhao Qin and the Pei family would soon disappear from the imperial capital. At that time, no one would be able to threaten her.

"Ms. Li, don't be angry. You are so beautiful that any man would be attracted to you. It must be that the servant just now was not conscientious. If you are willing to trust me, I will try for you."

Xia Sisi walked up to Li Nianqi and recommended herself.

Li Nianqi looked at her with contempt and disdain: "Can you get Huo Xingzhou out of the way?"

"Everything depends on human effort. I really want to make friends with Miss Li. To be honest, my brother and Mr. Huo were schoolmates and they had a pretty good relationship."

Li Nianqi didn't expect this kind of relationship.

Her eyes lit up: "Really?"

"It's true, but the relationship is not very close. I'm willing to give it a try for Miss Li."

"Then you give it a try. If you do well, I will definitely benefit from you. If you want any resources in the entertainment industry in the future, I can help you." She said this in a condescending manner, as if she was giving alms.

Xia Sisi's face also showed just the right amount of flattery and ingratiation.

She lifted her skirt and walked towards Huo Xingzhou. No one knew what she said, but Li Nianqi saw Huo Xingzhou stand up and walk towards the study on the second floor.

Li Nianqi hurriedly chased after him in her high heels.
