Huo Li was extremely angry.
First, Madam Huo and Huo Kaian had come to create a scene in his office, and then Huo Song brought Huo Miao to the press conference.
Never before had Huo Li felt his family could be so foolish.
For the first time, Huo Li realized just how thoroughly Jiang Ning had been neglected by the Huo family.
He looked down at Jiang Ning, subconsciously wanting to see her reaction, but saw Jiang Ning sitting in her seat, head down playing with her phone, oblivious to the clamor behind her. Despite the casual expression on her face, he felt a chill.
Huo Song and Huo Miao entered the venue under the lenses of countless media reporters.
A nosy reporter asked:
"Miss Huo Miao, are you attending today’s Huo’s press conference as the daughter of the Huo family? Are you aware that Jiang Ning is also present here?"
"Miss Huo Miao, what would you like to say to everyone about the previous Weibo fundraising fraud?"
"Have you thought about how to explain the remaining donation you owe to Jiang Ning?"
The reporter’s voice was incredibly loud, and even though security guards and staff were protecting them, the voice reached Huo Miao’s ears clearly, word for word.
Huo Miao’s originally smiling face stiffened.
She had already received the punishment she deserved, so why were these reporters still not letting her off?!
Those ridiculously expensive rabbits were clearly Jiang Ning’s blackmail!
She didn’t owe Jiang Ning; on the contrary, she was now being blacklisted in the entertainment industry, and it should be Jiang Ning who owed her!
Huo Miao was seething inside, but she dared not show the slightest bit of it.
Following by Huo Song’s side, as if she hadn’t heard everyone’s questions, she wore a professional smile on her face and instantly saw Jiang Ning sitting in the front row in the place of honor.
Seeing Jiang Ning only focusing on playing with her phone, not even giving her a proper look, Huo Miao suppressed the urge to roll her eyes. She walked up to Jiang Ning in her high heels, feigning friendliness, "Jiang Ning, I admit I was childish before. I apologize to you here and now. From now on, we’ll be colleagues."
Jiang Ning raised her head, looking at Huo Miao and Huo Song with a smile that was not quite a smile.
This was the first time she had been so pleasant in this period, and although Jiang Ning wasn’t angry, Huo Song somehow felt that her amused expression was a bit off. Jiang Ning’s reaction was quite unexpected to him.
In Huo Song’s mind, Jiang Ning was supposed to react furiously and violently, just like before, when she saw him and Huo Miao appearing together.
Huo Song hadn’t initially planned to bring Huo Miao along, but he couldn’t resist her snuggling up to him and pleasing him at lunch, even kneeling in front of him to make him feel good.
Moreover, Huo Song was actually reluctant to give up the 5% share that Huo Li valued.
Huo Li was undoubtedly banking on the public’s affection for Jiang Ning, but what if everyone suddenly realized that Jiang Ning wasn’t as righteous as she seemed to be outside? What if they found out Jiang Ning was actually someone with an unstable mental state, disrespectful to elders and quick to resort to violence? Would they still like her then?
With his ulterior motives, Huo Song had brought Huo Miao to the scene.
He thought Jiang Ning would get angry and go mad, but to his surprise, her reaction was so calmly friendly.
"Yeah," Huo Miao couldn’t help revealing a proud and self-satisfied look: "You might not know it yet, but our father has already agreed to let me be his secretary."
[This turn of events is disgusting!]
[What’s this wild chicken flaunting in front of Jiang Jiang? Her chicken butt is almost in the clouds.]
[Ahhh, Jiang Jiang has to be colleagues with Huo Miao now? No way!]
