Chapter 417 Banquet
Because it is Mr. Huo’s birthday party, the Huo family’s house is decorated anew today. Festive red lanterns are hung on both sides of the vermilion gate, swaying gently in the wind.
"Mr. Luo is here, please come in."
"The guests haven't all arrived yet, so I can't accompany you personally. Please forgive me for the poor hospitality."
When Huo Qiming saw Rosen coming, he greeted him with a smile.
But when he faced Anne behind him, his smile faded noticeably.
If it weren't for Rosen's sake, Anne wouldn't even be able to get through the door.
"Mr. Huo, don't worry about me. Go ahead and do your work. I'll go say hello to someone I know." Rosen looked at someone coming down from the second floor and couldn't take his eyes off him.
She is breathtakingly beautiful when she is not wearing professional attire.
Inside, the lights were bright and the house was packed with guests, toasting each other.
In the living room, the carved mahogany table was filled with sumptuous dishes and the aroma of wine filled the air.
The guests were dressed in neat military uniforms, suits, or tidy Zhongshan suits, formal wear... They were in groups of two or three, chatting and laughing.
"Mr. Huo, congratulations!" "I wish you good fortune as vast as the East Sea and a long life as long as the Southern Mountains!" Greetings were heard everywhere.
Mr. Huo's health is getting worse day by day. Today he is unusually happy and looks more energetic than usual.
He offered tea instead of wine, raised his glass and responded with a smile, "Thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedule to attend my birthday party. My health is not good and I can't drink alcohol, so I will offer tea instead of wine. I hope you will be more tolerant."
"It's okay. We all understand that good health is important."
At this time, Jiang Nuan was wearing a champagne-colored dress with ankle-length skirt. The slim-fitting dress made her figure look even slimmer. She had light makeup on her face, and her porcelain-like skin glowed white under the light.
She came down from the second floor and caused a commotion as soon as she appeared. Everyone in the hall focused their attention on her.
The women's eyes were filled with envy, jealousy, and regret.
The unmarried men looked at her with burning passion, not caring at all that she had been married and had children.
He thought that if he could win her favor, power and money would be within his reach, who wouldn't be jealous?
Jiang Nuan looked straight ahead, not caring about the others' eyes. A faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She held Xixi in one hand and Huo Wanying in the other.
The two little guys were very well-behaved. As soon as they got close to Grandpa Huo, they shouted sweetly, "Happy birthday, great-grandfather!"
"Happy birthday, Grandpa"
Jiang Nuan said with them, "We wish you good health and longevity, a long life, a life as long as the Southern Mountains, and happiness as vast as the Eastern Sea. May everything go well and may all your wishes come true..."
The two little cuties were wearing festive princess dresses, each holding a gift in their hands, one calling great-grandfather and the other calling grandpa.
A bunch of blessings came out of his mouth, making Mr. Huo laugh heartily with his eyes narrowed.
"Grandpa, happy birthday!"
Jiang Nuan rubbed the two little cuties' heads, "Wanying, Xixi, gifts!"
The two children hurriedly stuffed the gifts into Mr. Huo's hands and one of them snuggled up to him.
Huo Wanying said, "Grandpa, this is the gift my brother and I picked for you. It's your favorite ivory Go board. Please teach me how to play Go when I grow up."
Xixi: "Great-grandfather, this is the gift Mom picked for you, please take it.
Xixi is still young, when I grow up and make money I will buy you a gift."
"a ha ha ha……"
"Xixi's little mouth is good at talking."
"As sweet as honey."
"Good good!"
“Thank you to my wonderful grandchildren and great-grandchildren!”
"You guys are so thoughtful. I'm very happy today. Thank you all for spending money to hold such a grand birthday party for me. It's worth it in my life.
I am old and have no other wishes. As long as you are healthy and safe, I will be satisfied."
"Happy birthday, old man."
"I wish you a long life, great fortune, and a long life..." Rosen came behind Jiang Nuan at some point and congratulated Mr. Huo politely and respectfully.
"This is a small gift I brought with me. It's not much of a token of my respect, but I hope you don't mind..." Rosen handed the gift to the old man.
Seeing that he was unfamiliar, Mr. Huo narrowed his eyes slightly in confusion, then looked at Jiang Nuan, "Nuannuan, what is this person's name...?"
"Grandpa is old and his eyesight is blurry. He can't even see the faces of many of the younger generations clearly."
Jiang Nuan introduced with a faint smile, "Grandpa, this is Luo Sen, the CEO of Luo Group, and a partner of Huo and Ning's."
Seeing his imposing bearing, extraordinary temperament, and elegant conversation, the old man nodded in appreciation, "Well, not bad, you can tell at first glance that he is a man who will accomplish great things."
"Thank you, Mr. Luo, for attending my birthday party. There are many guests today, and Jiantao and Qiming are busy greeting them. I am not very mobile, so please forgive me for the poor hospitality."
"It's okay. You are the most important today, and being happy is the most important." After Rosen finished speaking, he looked at Xixi who was staring at him. Seeing her soft, cute and well-behaved appearance, his heart softened.
He squatted down, his voice unconsciously lowered, "Xixi, hello! Do you still remember your uncle?"
Xixi has a good memory and replied in a baby voice, "I remember that a bad aunt bullied me and my mom before, and my uncle helped us."
Rosen felt a little embarrassed when he heard this.
Finished!
It leaves a bad impression on the child when you first meet him/her.
"I'm sorry! Uncle apologizes to you again for that aunt's disrespect.
Xixi is so smart and cute, she will forgive Auntie and Uncle, right?"
Xixi nodded, "Mom said that admitting one's mistakes is the best way to improve!
Uncle apologized that day, and Xixi forgave her."
Rosen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. He was really afraid that the child would hold a grudge and ignore him.
He stretched out his hand, "Xixi, can uncle hug you?
You are very beautiful and cute, uncle likes you very much."
Behind him, Anne listened to him speak in a gentle tone that he had never used with her, and she was mad with jealousy.
hateful!
I have been with you for so long and yet I am still not as good as a child.
She was so angry that her teeth were itching, and she unconsciously increased the strength of her fingers, and the bag in her hand was deformed by her.
Xixi's eyes fell on Annie, and she instinctively disliked her.
This aunt doesn't look like a good person.
She seemed hostile towards her.
Mom said that unfamiliar people should not get close to her.
Xixi looked at her mother and asked, "Is it okay?"
Jiang Nuan didn't want to embarrass Rosen in front of so many people.
After she nodded, Xixi agreed, "Okay, but you can't hold it for too long. I'm going to help my great-grandfather cut the cake with my aunt later."
"Okay, uncle will listen to you." As soon as Xixi agreed, Rosen couldn't wait to hug her in his arms.
Holding the soft and tender little guy in his arms, Rosen instantly felt that the void in his heart was filled.
He couldn't help but lower his head and sniffed Xixi's hair inconspicuously...
The fragrance of jasmine.
The smell is the same as that in Jiang Nuan's hair. The mother and daughter must be using the same shampoo.
Annie suppressed her anger and deliberately approached Rosen. She smiled and said to Jiang Nuan like a real fiancée, "Hello, Mr. Jiang, I am Rosen's fiancée.
I was shortsighted last time and failed to recognize the great man. Please forgive me if I offended you unintentionally.
You don't know that my Rosen is too upright. He went back and talked to me for a long time, asking me to get along well with you next time I see you.
Goodbye today, I apologize to you again, and I hope you can put aside the past grudges and make friends with me, and we can get along well in the future.
After all, Ning's and Lawson Future are a win-win partnership, and we will have many opportunities to meet in the future."
She deliberately said this in front of everyone, letting everyone know that she was Rosen's fiancée, so that those women who had thoughts about Rosen would give up the idea.
After all, Rosen is too outstanding. Any woman with eyesight would want to marry a handsome and wealthy man like him.
Rosen was very unhappy with Anne's introduction, but the identification results had not come out yet, so he couldn't alert the enemy.
He was worried that Jiang Nuan would mind, but unexpectedly, Jiang Nuan gave a standard perfunctory smile, "Miss Annie, you're worrying too much. I didn't take what happened that day to heart.
Today is my grandfather's birthday. Without further ado, I wish you a happy time at the banquet."
Anne gave him an ambiguous smile. "Of course, with such a lively party tonight, I'm sure I'll have a good time."
I will definitely be happy, but you will be very miserable!
Then, Annie made a random excuse to go to the bathroom.
As she walked towards the bathroom, an inconspicuous woman in a light blue dress followed her in the corner, carrying a bag...
