This Is More Exciting Than Playing Games
Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations
Everyone knew about Huo Yichen and Murong Qiao’s engagement some time
ago.
Just as everyone was sizing up the two protagonists of today’s banquet, many female voices suddenly exclaimed in the next second.
The five brothers of the Murong Family followed closely behind Murong Qiao
and Huo Yichen.
Although it was not like everyone had never seen a handsome man before, five of the highest quality ones came at once. It couldn’t help but make the young ladies present blush.
There were calm and steady, abstinent and cold, gentle and scholarly, and also melancholic and lively styles.
Someone sighed. “Even playing games isn’t this heaven-defying.”
This was much more exciting than playing games.
So many types of men were standing in front of them at this moment.
Moreover, they were not virtual characters, but living people. Anyone who saw them would be tempted.
Murong Qiao was feeling that the gazes on her seemed to have decreased. In the end, when she turned around, she saw that a few girls had already gone to talk to her Big Brothers.
“I have a bad feeling,” Murong Qiao suddenly said.
When Huo Yichen heard her voice, he turned around in confusion. When he saw Murong Chen and the others surrounded, he couldn’t help but smile.
Being popular was a good thing, but it might not be the case for some people.
Sensing that many people had come over to talk to him and had even exceeded the most basic social reaction between humans, Yan Xiu’s face was so cold that it made one feel a chill envelop their body.
However, the enthusiasm of the young ladies was clearly not something that could be rejected by this layer of ice, especially those who liked Yan Xiu very much. In the past, they often went to the other party’s design studio and might not be able to see him. Now that they saw him here, they definitely had to seize the opportunity.
Other than the grand occasion on Yan Xiu’s side, Xian Yu and Third Brother
Murong Chuan’s side were also not inferior.
Xian Yu was usually active in the entertainment industry, let alone now that he was already standing at the top. Just his fans alone were countless, and many young ladies were also his fans.
Murong Chuan, who looked very gentle on the surface, also became the person many people dared to strike up a conversation with.
On the other hand, Murong Chen and Murong Zheng, one of them stood there with an imposing aura that made people retreat three feet away, while the other was pure and cold. Coupled with his poisonous tongue, the girls who plucked up the courage to come over and strike up a conversation were forced to beat a retreat by him.
“I’ll go and see my brother and the others.” Murong Qiao really couldn’t bear to say it.
Huo Yichen wanted to go with her, but he was stopped.
Murong Qiao raised her eyebrows. “You’re the protagonist today. When I first came in, I saw many people wanting to look for you.”
It was true that she wanted to spend more time with Huo Yichen, but this bit of time was fine.
The banquet was naturally more important now. Moreover… after it ended,
they would have time.
After persuading Huo Yichen to leave, Murong Qiao walked towards her Big Brothers.
She originally wanted to save her Big Brothers, but before she could put her thoughts into action, she saw Murong Chen waving at her to go over.
Hence, Murong Qiao obediently stepped forward and stood beside Murong Chen. Then, he realized that there was a middle-aged man standing beside her Big Brother and a girl about her age.
The girl was wearing a delicate black short skirt that accentuated her figure. However, her chest was flat. Even with Murong Qiao’s unprofessional gaze, she could tell that her clothes didn’t seem to be the most suitable.
Not to mention anything else, when Murong Qiao walked over, the other party recognized her at a glance and his face was filled with joy.
‘■This must be Young Miss Murong? Hello, hello.” The other party greeted her first.
Murong Qiao smiled and gestured. Then, she looked up at Murong Chen beside her, her eyes revealing slight confusion.
Murong Chen introduced him appropriately. “This is Mr. Huo Qiuguang from the Huo Family.”
Huo Qiuguang was a member of the Huo Family’s branch and was also a member of the Huo Family’s board of directors. He could be considered to have led a good life in the branch family.
“President Murong,” Huo Qiuguang replied.
Even if based on his age, Huo Qiuguang could be considered as Murong Chen’s elder, but in terms of business achievements, it was not too much for Huo Qiuguang to bow and scrape to Murong Chen.
Not only did he flatter him on the surface, but he was also thinking about currying favor with Murong Chen. He was wondering if he could have the honor to cooperate with Shengjing Group.
“Now that I’ve seen you today, it’s true. President Murong is a young talent. Even your Little Sister is so amazing. I heard that you’ve already opened your own company at such a young age and are running it well.”
On the other hand, Huo Qiuguang spoke eloquently. “She’s not like my daughter. She doesn’t do anything at home all day and only cares about enjoying life.”
As soon as he said this, the girl standing at the side was immediately unhappy.
The girl stomped her feet and said in a delicate voice, “Dad!”
-What!” Huo Qiuguang reprimanded her softly. “Which part of what I said isn’t the truth?”
-You only know how to play with your friends every day. You’re not proper all day.”
Huo Qiuguang looked as if he expected better from her. “Why don’t you take a look at her? She started her own company and started her own business before graduating from university. Now, her reputation is extremely good. She even went to Hui University. Isn’t she better than you in every aspect?” “It’s not that I want to say this, but you have to learn more from her. In the future—”
Although every parent had their own set of rules, once the child heard it, her first reaction was an irritable rebellious mentality.
The girl, Huo Qiuguang’s daughter, Huo Na, had a tense expression on her face. She let go of Huo Qiuguang’s hand and didn’t look happy at all.
Although Huo Qiuguang’s voice was not loud, Murong Chen and Murong Qiao could hear him.
Although Murong Qiao couldn’t empathize with this situation, she also felt like sighing at this scene.
Murong Chen didn’t say anything, but his impression of Huo Qiuguang decreased a lot.
in his opinion, a father who could talk about his daughter in public and suppress her confidence wouldn’t be very successful in business. Murong Chen had seen thousands of people in the business world, but he took Huo Qiuguang’s flattery of him seriously. However, he originally wanted to brush it off half-heartedly, but he didn’t expect the other party to treat his daughter like this. He couldn’t accept it.
“Mr. Huo, you don’t have to do this,” Murong Chen said softly.
However, Huo Qiuguang thought that his flattery was effective and added.
“Your Little Sister is really good. She can do everything well herself. She reminds me of Old Master Murong back then.”
According to habit, Huo Qiuguang’s next sentence was to say that his daughter, Huo Na, was not good.
But this time, before he could say anything, Huo Na said with a cold expression, “I’m not feeling well. I’ll leave for a while.”
No one would want to stay in this environment.
Moreover, she didn’t understand. How could Murong Qiao be as good as her father said?
It was not as if she had not seen the other party just now. She also had two eyes, a nose, and a mouth. It was not as if she couldn’t afford the clothes on her body. What business? It sounded messy.
Huo Na, who was impatient and even a little aggrieved, couldn’t care less and left angrily.
“You!” Huo Qiuguang was furious.
He didn’t expect his daughter to not give him face on such an occasion and chose to leave directly. For a moment, he turned around and looked at Murong Chen with an awkward smile..
