Chapter 163: Can you still sleep after you go back?
Huo Yunzheng hugged his wife and looked at the two of them coldly, "Since you said it's not necessary, then you should admit your mistake and apologize on behalf of your fiancée."
Huo Jiayuan was stunned. He was asked to apologize? Why?
He was unwilling in his heart, but with so many people watching, if he tried to take Chen Xinru away forcefully, it would inevitably lead to a conflict, which would be even more difficult to resolve.
Huo Jiayuan knew what was going on. He couldn't fight back now, and if he continued to confront him, he would only lose face.
"Okay, isn't it just an apology? Xinru was wrong today, I will apologize to the second sister-in-law on her behalf."
The word "second sister-in-law" was emphasized very strongly.
Chen Xinru stood aside, but she didn't appreciate it. Huo Jiayuan was such a fool. Didn't this prove that she was the one who deliberately pushed the woman into the water? !
He's so stupid, who wants him to replace me?
"Be sincere and bow." Huo Yunzheng ordered clearly word by word, like a Shura walking out of hell, "It's better not to let me see the slightest reluctance in your eyes."
Huo Jiayuan clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, feeling extremely unwilling, but the words had just been spoken, and with so many eyes staring at him, he was caught in a dilemma.
"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry. Xinru drank too much and didn't mean to argue with you."
Qiao Chuchu stood beside Huo Yunzheng and listened to the man's apology. She knew that in such an occasion, as a man, Huo Yunzheng should not openly embarrass Chen Xinru too much.
After all, she herself did not suffer any substantial harm, and she even slapped Chen Xinru in the face, so she did not suffer any loss.
Asking Huo Jiayuan to apologize is actually a warning to Chen Xinru and seeking justice for her.
Qiao Chuchu looked up at her husband, then pursed her lips and looked at Huo Jiayuan again.
"I know, let's go."
There would be no end to the dispute if it continued. She felt bad for affecting Old Madam Lu's birthday party.
Huo Jiayuan took Chen Xinru away angrily, with people whispering behind him. He had lost all his face because of Chen Xinru.
At the Lu family, the banquet went on as usual. Due to the status of Huo Yunzheng and the Jing family, no one said a word against Qiao Chuchu. In addition, Chen Xinru had a bad reputation in the circle of ladies and young ladies recently, so most people were laughing at her.
After staying for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Huo Yunzheng said goodbye to the old lady of the Lu family and the Lu couple, and took Qiao Chuchu back to Lishuiju.
In the car, Qiao Chuchu leaned on Huo Yunzheng's shoulder and closed her eyes to rest.
Huo Yunzheng's nose was filled with the fragrance of her black hair. He habitually pulled her hand over and gently touched her palm with his fingertips.
"Don't pretend?"
A man's teasing voice came into her ears. Qiao Chuchu still closed her eyes, but her mouth was turned down.
"Who is pretending? I was just showing my acting skills when it was time to do so. That's my ability, okay?"
It was said so refreshingly and unconventionally that Huo Yunzheng couldn't help but smile.
Although she acted pitiful on purpose, her sweet voice was particularly touching in the Lu family courtyard.
It's like a feather gently tickling you. You clearly can't stand it but you don't want to wave it away.
Qiao Chuchu sat up straight, lowered her head and fiddled with her mobile phone, looking at the store management guides pushed by some software.
Huo Yunzheng leaned over to take a look and said, "Be good, sleep a little longer. It will take more than 20 minutes to get home."
Qiao Chuchu was unmoved, "I don't get carsick, it's okay to play with my phone, I can just go home and sleep."
Huo Yunzheng raised his eyebrows. As the driver was still in the car, he moved closer to his wife and whispered in her ear, "Do you think you will have time to sleep when you get home tonight?"
Qiao Chuchu was stunned. What kind of obscene words was this person saying?
"Huo Yunzheng, you are a big pervert!" Qiao Chuchu did not hide her disgust at all and moved a little further away from him.
It's safest to keep your distance.
……
Huo Jiayuan sent Chen Xinru home. It was just a small cut on her hand, so there was no need to go to the hospital. She could just apply some iodine when she got home.
After driving the man out of the car, Huo Jiayuan had a sullen look on his face and did not try to please him as he usually did. He was angry but had no place to vent it.
Chen Xinru was completely focused on Qiao Chuchu, holding a grudge in her heart, and did not notice Huo Jiayuan's coldness towards her.
He threw a tantrum as soon as he got home, which caused Feng Yina and Chen Zongzhi a headache.
This daughter is becoming more and more impatient. She can lose her composure like this for a young lady from the Jing family.
"Okay, why are you crying? That woman is Huo Yunzheng's wife now. Of course they are of the same mind. Why are you angry?" Chen Zongzhi patiently persuaded.
"I've made you lose face. When you become the young lady of the Huo family in the future, you can control her however you want. Why rush into it and let others laugh at you!"
Chen Xinru sobbed. She just couldn't stand that woman. She hated it when she saw her showing off!
"You always call her Young Madam, Dad, will Huo Yunzheng really lose power?" Chen Xinru asked tentatively.
Chen Zongzhi's eyes widened, "Of course, even if the old man protects him, he will not be able to be the head of the Huo family in the future."
There was a fierce look in his eyes when he said this. Now he and Huo Qi were in the same boat. No matter what, he would let Huo Qi and his son take the position, so that his daughter could become the wife of the president of Yunxi Group and get more shares. The future of their Chen family would be even more limitless.
"Sir, there is a package."
As the family was talking, the nanny came over with a box in her hand.
"It's so late, there's still a courier coming?"
Feng Yina looked doubtful. She hadn't shopped online recently, nor had she ordered anything from the store.
"Xinru, did you buy something?"
Chen Zongzhi frowned. It was already past the courier's off-get off work hours, so how come a package was delivered?
After taking it from the nanny and seeing Chen Xinru's name and phone number written on the waybill, Chen Zongzhi felt uneasy.
Worried that it might be something dangerous, Chen Zongzhi even found a detector. Only after confirming that it was not a time bomb did he carefully open the package.
"what--"
Chen Xinru saw what was in the box almost immediately: a human finger and many photos.
The person in the photo was beaten so badly that he was almost unrecognizable. Chen Xinru felt that her clothes were soaked and her back was cold.
She didn't recognize the person in the photo, but her intuition told her that this should be the killer hired by Huo Jiayuan and his men to get rid of that bitch.
No wonder I haven't received any news for so long.
"Huo Yunzheng!"
Chen Zongzhi gritted his teeth and threw the package into the trash can.
His daughter had just had an argument with Jing Xi at the Lu family's banquet, and right after that someone sent this to her. If it wasn't Huo Yunzheng's deliberate intimidation, who else could have done it?
Great, Huo Yunzheng is going to break off relations with the Chen family!
