The mind-reading vegetative husband made the scumbag kneel down in tears

Chapter 38: Hongmen Banquet, there is medicine in the wine

Afraid, how can I not be afraid?

It took a lot of effort to make Huo Tingchen look half dead, how could he give birth to a child?

Huo Jianshu's expression changed unpredictably, and finally turned fierce.

"Mr. Lu, do you have any other advice?"

"I want to destroy Chu Ciyou, please help me, Mr. Huo."

----

The next day, a post was sent to the president's office.

The Qin family, an old friend of the Huo family, held a banquet and invited Chu Ciyou to attend on behalf of Huo Tingchen.

Chu Ciyou had attended many such banquets in his previous life and was familiar with the place. After get off work, he took Jiang Bei there.

Mr. Qin’s banquet venue is a courtyard house that is specially designed to host high-end banquets. It has a strong ancient Beijing flavor.

Chu Ciyou had participated in many games in his previous life, but this was his first time coming to this place.

"Mr. Qin is from Beijing. He made his fortune by gambling on stones and he likes calligraphy and painting..." Jiang Bei walked along the way, educating the host about his hobbies.

Chu Ciyou took note of it silently.

"Mrs. Huo is here." Old Qin looked kind, but his overly shrewd eyes made Chu Ciyou dare not take it lightly.

"Hello, Mr. Qin." Chu Ciyou greeted with a smile.

"Is Tingchen feeling better?" asked Old Qin.

Chu Ciyou looked embarrassed: "It's still the same."

"That's really difficult for you." Old Qin sighed, "I heard that you manage Huo's very well, just like when Tingchen was still with you."

"Have it?"

Chu Ciyou was flattered. "This is actually my first time doing this, and it was all the shareholders and senior management who gave me advice."

Mr. Qin was surprised: "You have never managed a company before?"

"No." Chu Ciyou shook his head gently, "Although I studied financial management in college, my family never let me work."

Old Qin was even more amazed: "Mrs. Huo is very talented and has a bright future!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Qin!" Chu Ci smiled, dignified and proper.

There weren't many guests present today, just over a dozen business leaders.

Seeing that Old Qin thought so highly of Chu Ciyou, everyone came over to toast him.

"My wife can't drink much, so let me do it for you!" Jiang Bei quickly stepped forward to block the wine.

It would be difficult for a group of men to embarrass a woman, and besides, the Huo family was not someone they could afford to offend.

Chu Ciyou secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

With so many people toasting her, wouldn’t she be drunk?

Fortunately, there is Jiangbei and everyone gives us face.

Outside the main hall, Huo Jianshu watched this scene with a gloomy face, and felt even more taboo in his heart.

If you don’t drink alcohol, you are either pregnant or preparing to get pregnant!

He would never allow her to give birth to a child who would cause trouble!

"Qin Yuan, it's your turn." Huo Jianshu said in a low voice.

The woman named Qin Yuan was in her fifties, still charming. She winked at Huo Jianshu and said, "Look at me!"

Qin Yuan held the wine in her hand and came to Chu Ciyou gracefully: "Oh, Mrs. Huo is so beautiful!"

"you are……"

"I'm Qin Yuan. I'm older than you. Just call me Sister Yuan." Qin Yuan smiled charmingly.

Huo Jianshu was standing outside the hall, staring in amazement.

Jiang Bei immediately whispered: "This is Mr. Qin's favorite little daughter."

"It's Sister Yuan, nice to meet you." Chu Ciyou stood up and prepared to have a drink with Qin Yuan, using tea instead of wine as before.

Qin Yuan glanced at her wine glass and refused to drink: "Mrs. Huo looks down on me!"

"No, no, it's just that I can't handle the alcohol..."

"What's the big deal about having one drink?" Qin Yuan smiled and stuffed the wine in her hand to Chu Ciyou, and poured another glass from the table. "It's okay to drink as much as you want with those stinky men, but we sisters must be serious."

"Sister Yuan, I promised not to drink at home." Chu Ci said worriedly.

"Oh, are you preparing for pregnancy? Or are you already pregnant?" Qin Yuan was laughing so hard that her body was shaking.

When she teased, everyone laughed too.

Huo Tingchen has become a vegetable, how can he have a baby?

unless……

Everyone looked at each other knowingly, and then looked at Chu Ciyou with tinted glasses.

The Chu family's beautiful daughter, who is like a little white flower, actually took the initiative to ride a man. It's exciting just to think about it!

It's a pity that Huo Tingchen didn't feel anything. If it were them...

Everyone smiled ambiguously, which made Chu Ciyou very uncomfortable.

But this was the Qin family's plan, so she couldn't get angry.

Whatever, it's just a glass of wine.

"Okay! Since Sister Yuan said so, I will have a drink with Sister Yuan!" Chu Ciyou held a tall wine glass and was about to drink.

She suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure outside the hall from the corner of her eye, her expression changed slightly, and she put the wine glass on the table.

"What?" Qin Yuan raised his eyebrows, smiling on his face, but his eyes were obviously displeased.

This kind of expression management made Chu Ciyou even more certain that there was something wrong with the wine.

She smiled slightly and said, "I'll drink some soup first to fill my stomach."

"Pfft!" Qin Yuan was amused. "Which daughter of a rich family doesn't know how to drink? You are really special."

"My family has been strict since I was young." Chu Ciyou said as he scooped up the chicken soup and drank it seriously.

It's really boring for two women to joke around for a glass of wine.

No one took it seriously and just ate, drank and talked about business.

Chu Ciyou glanced at Jiang Bei, who understood and leaned over to Qin Yuan and said, "When did Vice President Qin return to Jingcheng? Our wife mentioned you the other day, saying that she had a stone and wanted you to take a look at it..."

Gambling on stones is a specialty that Qin Yuan is proud of, so she started chatting with Jiang Bei.

While Jiang Bei was interrupting, Chu Ciyou took the lead in picking up the wine glass: "Sister Yuan, let's drink!"

"Come!" Qin Yuan also picked up the wine glass.

Chu Ciyou took a small sip and wanted to put it down.

Qin Yuan said: "We have to drink it all up, not just one sip."

"This……"

Chu Ciyou looked embarrassed.

"Just drink it! One glass won't make you drunk." Qin Yuan smiled and touched the glass to him again.

Chu Ciyou then deliberately did it in a difficult way.

Qin Yuan smiled with satisfaction and pulled Chu Ciyou's hand: "Is this your first time here? Come on, I'll take you around, ignore these stinky men."

"Okay, thank you Sister Yuan."

When Chu Ciyou followed Qin Yuan out, Huo Jianshu was no longer outside the hall.

She didn't dare to take it lightly and waved to Jiang Bei.

Jiang Bei followed quietly.

"Mrs. Xiao Huo, I heard that you and Tingchen had a flash marriage and you didn't even know each other before."

"Yes!"

"Then why did you want to marry him? I heard that you originally had a fiancé, his name was Lu something?"

"It's just a verbal engagement between the two families. It doesn't count."

Qin Yuan always liked to take the lead and order people around, but Chu Ciyou didn't get angry and just answered whatever he asked.

With no challenge like this, Qin Yuan quickly lost his patience.

Humph, people outside say that Chu Ciyou has all kinds of abilities, but in reality, he’s nothing special.

Just doing things under the Huo family's reputation!

After a while, the two came to the rockery beside the pond.

Qin Yuan stopped and said, "We are tired from walking. Let's sit for a while."

"Okay!"

Chu Ci nodded worriedly.

The two of them sat down to rest under the rockery. It was unusually quiet here, with not even a servant passing by.

The lush fine-leaved banyan trees beside the rockery cast a huge shadow, covering them.

As the sun moves westward, the light gradually dims.

Chu Ciyou silently calculated the time in his mind.

The figures outside the hall just now included Huo Jianshu and Lu Song. I wonder if it will be Huo Jianshu or Lu Song who will come over later...

"So hot."

Qin Yuan's face suddenly flushed and he pulled at his collar.

Chu Ciyou immediately became alert: "Sister Yuan must be thirsty, I'll go get you some water."
