Chapter 158 Huo Yunzheng, are you pretending?
As soon as Jiang Chuxia finished speaking, Huo Yunzheng subconsciously looked at Qiao Chuchu.
His wife doesn't know yet that he was poisoned.
Noticing his gaze, Qiao Chuchu glanced at him sideways, but didn't say much to save his face.
This man didn't even confess completely. She needs to teach him a lesson!
However, even if he didn't say it in advance, Qiao Chuchu could now guess it almost exactly.
The people who sent people to assassinate them were from the Huo family. Huo Yunzheng himself said that someone in the Huo family wanted to kill him.
As a member of the Huo family, even if there is only one position of the group president, as a family member, you will definitely not be treated unfairly, and you will have no problem having enough food and clothing and living a rich life.
Qiao Chuchu didn’t understand why they hated each other so much when they had the same blood. It was true that the Huo family was rich, but they didn’t own the throne. What was the point of this “fighting for succession and power”?
"Second brother, let me remind you." Jiang Chuxia was a little hesitant, but for the sake of her second brother's health, she still spoke.
"You are still in the recovery period, so... you need to be more restrained, or else your Qi and blood will flow backwards and kill you!"
As soon as the words fell, everyone present looked embarrassed, except Huo Ziyan who didn't understand.
Lu Yiming only hated himself for not being able to cover her mouth. If he wanted to say this, he should not say it in front of his sister-in-law. It would be so embarrassing.
Jiang Chuxia was still carefree. They were all adults, so there was nothing that could not be said. She had said things that were even more explicit than this before. Wasn't she considering the long-term future of her second brother and his wife?
"Are you done? It's getting late. If we don't go back now, there will be a traffic jam on the road."
Jiang Chuxia snorted. This guy couldn't afford to play with her, but he actually ordered her to leave? If I had known, I wouldn't have given him medicine. I would have poisoned him to death!
"Second brother, go ahead and do your thing." Lu Yiming carried Huo Ziyan down and quickly pulled Jiang Chuxia up.
He is not very sure about what he says.
Qiao Chuchu quickly stood up and said, "You guys don't want to have dinner? Don't leave."
Lu Yiming waved his hand. What's the point of eating? If he stayed any longer, his second brother would eat him alive!
After dinner, in the bedroom, Qiao Chuchu was taking care of her skin after taking a shower when she saw Huo Yunzheng coming out of the bathroom.
"Wife, I want to wipe my face too."
Qiao Chuchu looked at him, a stinky man, so delicate that he couldn't stand it.
She poured out some of her toner and splashed it on him a few times.
"Was it your stepmother or your third uncle who poisoned you?" Qiao Chuchu asked proactively.
Huo Yunzheng had told her a lot about the Huo family before, and she gradually sorted out the relationships among the Huo family members.
"Both."
Both?
There was inevitably some distress in Qiao Chuchu's eyes when she looked at Huo Yunzheng. What kind of life had he led in the Huo family in the past?
"Wife, am I very pitiful?"
Qiao Chuchu nodded without saying a word.
His biological father doesn't love him, his stepmother is indifferent to him, and his biological uncle is considered his mortal enemy. If he hadn't been valued by the old man of the Huo family and taught in everything, and if he hadn't worked hard to improve himself, he would have either grown up to be a playboy or been plotted against and killed early.
"Hug my wife."
Huo Yunzheng stretched out his arms. His hair had just been washed and had not been styled. It hung softly in front of his forehead like a docile big dog.
Qiao Chuchu hugged his waist and was about to comfort him when she felt his hands wandering on her back.
Shit, taking advantage of her?
"Huo Yunzheng, are you pretending?"
The warm atmosphere ended here. Qiao Chuchu looked at the man. It would be a pity if he didn't go to act.
"Wife, you said you would love me forever." Huo Yunzheng was being shameless.
Qiao Chuchu looked at him leisurely and really wanted to record his clingy look and show it to his company employees.
"Chu Xia said that we need to exercise moderation. Oh, no, it's you who needs to exercise moderation."
Qiao Chuchu emphasized the fact. She had always been very restrained, but this man had no bottom line!
"Just take it easy and don't use so much force." Huo Yunzheng didn't care at all and added, "My case is not contagious and I'm getting better soon."
Qiao Chuchu glared at him. What the man said was not credible, and not a single word he said in this regard could be believed.
"Huo Yunzheng, let's sleep in separate rooms starting today. When you are fully recovered, you can move back."
Qiao Chuchu picked up a pillow and stuffed it into his arms, "Go find another room to sleep in, I want to rest, husband, good night."
Huo Yunzheng would never agree to her wishes. Separation would hurt feelings the most.
With a wave of his long arm, he pulled the person closer to him, held her in one hand and went to where they should go.
……
The next day, there was a family dinner at the Huo family’s old house.
Huo Yunzheng arrived late, and when Old Master Huo saw that he was willing to come back for a meal, his expression eased a lot.
"Grandpa Huo, please sit down."
Chen Xinru stood beside Huo Jiayuan, acting cute.
She still attends the Huo family's family dinners as the Huo family's future daughter-in-law, but now the person she is going to marry is Huo Jiayuan.
Mr. Huo ignored her. Just as Chen Xinru herself had sensed, Mr. Huo did not love her as much as before.
Huo Yunzheng did not want to fulfill the engagement, and it was indeed their Huo family who was in the wrong. The Huo family would not reduce the compensation by even a penny.
But what the Chen family did was indeed disgusting.
Seeing that Chen Xinru and Huo Yunzheng failed, he turned to Huo Jiayuan. What did he think of their Huo family?
Marriage is an important matter, and although it is necessary to be well-matched, and the Chen family's status and reputation satisfied him, there is another very important point, that is, the in-laws must be reliable.
Obviously, Huo Liancheng was a little bothered by the actions of Chen Zongzhi and his daughter.
"Grandpa Huo, our family has already drawn up a guest list, and I've just shown it to Uncle Qi and Aunt Sheng."
Their wedding date is not far away. Mr. Huo is not in charge of the wedding. All matters are discussed by Huo Qi and his wife and the Chen family.
Mr. Huo just nodded lightly and did not express any opinion.
Huo Jiayuan was dissatisfied. When discussing Huo Yunzheng's marriage, the old man did not have this attitude.
Partiality is partiality. They are both grandsons and flesh and blood of the Huo family. Why is he treated completely differently from Huo Yunzheng?
"Brother, remember to bring your sister-in-law to my and Xinru's wedding. After all, you've been married for so long, and she hasn't even recognized all the people in our family. If she doesn't know how to address us when she sees us in the future, wouldn't that be awkward?"
Knowing that the old man was not satisfied with Miss Jing being the daughter-in-law of the Huo family, Huo Jiayuan deliberately brought it up again in front of everyone.
Compared to Huo Yunzheng's behavior of disobeying his elders and marrying his enemies, Huo Jiayuan is obviously much more filial!
He had to make his grandfather recognize who was only concerned about the Huo family and who was the one who considered the overall situation and was sensible.
The Huo family is large and prosperous, so there should be many candidates for the heir. How are the people from their third branch worse than Huo Yunzheng?
