Chapter 569

hadn't been clearly communicated yet.The secretary came in midway, bringing water. She accidentally knocked over the tea, and the scalding hot water spilled all over Fu Yan's hand.She hissed, and Xia...Ho Mingzheng gave Cheng Weijun a plate of food, and with a cold gaze, he glanced at Huo Jingshu at the next table. "Because of your mistakes in the contract, Ho Shi suffered a loss of one hundred million yuan. You were late to work and absent without excuse. Your errors are endless. Do you still have the face to be wronged in front of me"

But you have a point. 。" Huo Mingzheng paused, his fingers tracing the rim of his glass, “I like her " 。Someone at the table gasped. 。In the eerie silence of death, Huo Mingzheng calmly poured a glass of wine for his father. "Dad," 。> 。He picked up his glass, downed it in one gulp, glanced at the two people at the table, cleared his throat, and said, “Let’s eat. It’s not a big deal.” 。"No, Second Brother, Ah Zheng he..." Grandfather Huo's face turned green. He wasn't just humiliated by being slapped in the face by Huo Mingzheng in public, but was also shocked, "He and Fu Yan, they... how could you not stop them" 。"Second Master Huo pinched the bridge of his nose, "He's not just my son, he's also the head of the family. Can I control what he does Or maybe Third Brother, you could help me manage him" 。Lord Huo sank his breath, he dared not interfere!Dinner ended in silence. During the meal, Huo Jingshu still tried to cause a commotion, but was brought back to the side courtyard by Du Xiner and Lord Huo Siye. The others, without Old Madam Huo present, did not dare to question Huo Mingzheng openly. 。

Huo Mingzheng stood in the corridor smoking, his birthday was coming up soon.

Although he didn't like birthdays, they were always the same – boring and uneventful every year. Except for the two years he spent with Fu Yan, his thirty years of birthdays had never tasted as good. 。The flavor wasn't just limited to her dark dishes, but also the birthday surprise she gave. 。

Fu Yan was a conservative girl, but to please him and make him happy, she treated herself like a gift. That night, he unwrapped her "gift" piece by piece, almost killing himself in the process.

He was prejudiced and assumed that her favoritism was for the sake of the Fifth House, to help it gain a stronger foothold in the Huo family, because at that time, the Fifth House's situation was not good. 。Ho Mingzheng took a deep drag of his cigarette, but the sourness that welled up in his chest refused to be suppressed. 。He extinguished his cigarette and as he walked back, he heard someone making a phone call in the side hall. 。He strode over, leaning against the doorframe, watching Huo Yuan hang up the phone. 。

He smirked, "I didn't expect big brother to speak French so well.

" 。"He handed his phone to Ajie, his eyes softening as he looked at Huo Mingzheng. "I did a little business outside and had to learn some foreign languages. To hear praise from you, A Zheng, seems I've learned pretty well." 。"My big brother went to the UK but did business in French-speaking regions, it seems like he's not dealing with small stuff." 。"He smiled helplessly, "There are just a lot of things that need money. I'm just trying to make a living." 。I can't keep using the Huo family's money. If I have to, I'd rather withdraw from your personal account, but it would make me feel uncomfortable. 。Ho Mingzheng let out a cold snort. “Brother’s face is a bit too big.” 。I gave her five taels of silver because I like YanYan. 。Ho Yuan looked at him with a half-smile for a while. 。He raised his hand, and Aji pushed the wheelchair. 。As he passed Huo Mingzheng, he said meaningfully, "I didn't expect you to admit it in public, Zheng. You've really impressed me." 。">at Cao Yuan, but unfortunately Cao Yuan didn't react. He had no choice but to look at Luo Shu.Luo Shu also looked at a loss.He rarely interacted with Miss Fu, but from the few times they did, it was c...
