“Cough!” A very deliberate cough suddenly rang out from the side, breaking the mutual gaze between Si Huan and Huo Tian.
The two of them looked towards the source of the voice and realized that Ding Rong had already ended her conversation with the designer and was looking at them in disapproval.
Huo Tian immediately felt a little shy and avoided Ding Rong’s gaze embarrassedly.
Unlike Huo Tian, who was a girl, Si Huan was more thick-skinned. He looked at Ding Rong calmly and even nodded at her. He said calmly, “Auntie Ding, are you guys done with the discussion?”
Ding Rong thought to herself that it was true that all boys were up to no good!
She wanted to remind Si Huan not to be so arrogant, but she was also worried that her daughter was shy and would feel embarrassed.
She could only glare at Si Huan secretly and drop the matter.
Only when Ding Rong was the only parent around would Si Huan dare to tease Huo Tian a little. If Xi Cheng and Ding Chen, the two men who regarded Huo Tian as their precious, were next to them, Si Huan would not dare to be unruly at all.
Although the atmosphere over at the Ding Family’s side was a little indescribable, it was still very harmonious overall. In comparison, the Huo Family’s atmosphere was as if it had fallen into an icehouse.
Mr. and Mrs. Huo’s moods were the same as the atmosphere at home, in complete coldness.
After they forced Huo You to go and apologize to Huo Tian, they couldn’t contact her anymore. Through their extensive connections, they managed to find out where Huo You was. She had been staying in the hotel for the past two days and hadn’t gone anywhere.
Mr. and Mrs. Huo both felt that Huo You didn’t dare to go home because she hadn’t completed her mission.
The two of them were furious, but they didn’t dare to push Huo You too hard. What if Huo You decided to go all out and refused to apologize to Huo Tian? Would the two of them, as elders, put aside their face and personally beg for Huo Tian’s forgiveness?
After anxiously waiting for two days, Mrs. Huo had no choice but to go to the hotel Huo You was staying in personally. She wanted to play the emotional card with Huo You and get her to take the big picture into consideration and complete this matter.
At the hotel, Mrs. Huo saw that Huo You was enjoying a room service massage leisurely.
She flared up. After chasing the service staff away, Mrs. Huo threw her bag on the sofa.
She glared at Huo You, who had just gotten up from the massage chair, and said through gritted teeth, “Huo You! Do you know the severity of the matter? How can you still be in the mood to enjoy a massage at a time like this?”
In the past, when facing the furious Mrs. Huo, Huo You felt fear from the bottom of her heart. She was afraid that when Mrs. Huo’s emotions were unstable, she would slap her.
However, Huo You no longer cared about Mrs. Huo. So what if she was angry? At most, she would just be slapped and she’d then slap her back. Other than that, Mrs. Huo didn’t have any other means, right?
Huo You gathered up her loose sleeping robe and said casually, “I came to enjoy a massage just to prepare for the banquet. I want to appear at the banquet in my best condition. Otherwise, won’t I be embarrassing the Huo Family?”
Upon hearing Huo You’s words, Mrs. Huo hadn’t considered the possibility that Huo Tian would send an invitation to the Huo Family. She subconsciously thought that Huo You had accepted He Yu’s invitation and was planning to abandon the Huo Family and attend Huo Tian’s birthday banquet with He Yu.
At the thought of this possibility, Mrs. Huo became even angrier. She pointed at Huo You, her fingers trembling slightly.
“You ingrate! Now that you have the means to attend the banquet, you don’t intend to care about your father and me anymore, right? Let me tell you, Huo You, you and He Yu aren’t officially engaged yet! As long as we want to, we can release the news to the outside world at any time to cancel your engagement!”
