Chapter 295 The Wife Is Own
After hearing her words, Mrs. Qi stretched out her hand to caress the necklace around her neck, and looked at Shen Shiqing with a slight smile.
"You also think the necklace I'm wearing is unique and beautiful, don't you?"
"Yeah, it's really good-looking. It's very suitable for you. It's a work that the designer has worked hard on."
Shen Shiqing really thinks that the necklace on Mrs. Qi's neck is very beautiful. Mrs. Qi is a jewelry lover and must know many jewelry designers, so it should be possible to have such a unique and unseen style necklace. Link this necklace with Ye Shu.
Mrs. Qi smiled in satisfaction and nodded, "I have a good vision."
After she finished speaking, she glanced at the set of necklaces in Shen Shiqing's hand, and said softly.
"Your set is not bad. The thrush who has served me for more than 20 years is also a little inferior, but it's okay. I accepted it for her. Thank you, Miss Shen."
After her words fell, the servant who stood by her hand came forward and politely took the box from her hand.
During the whole process, Mrs. Qi just took a rough look at the jewelry she gave.
Shen Shiqing clenched her palms slightly, enduring the inexplicable humiliation from Mrs. Qi.
Her eyes were slightly red, and she took a cautious look at Huo Shenting, wanting to ask Mrs. Qi what offended her, but the next second Mrs. Qi said indifferently.
"Go in, the banquet is about to begin."
Shen Shiqing breathed a sigh of relief, but in the end she couldn't ask the question, so she followed Huo Shenting aggrievedly, and walked into the venue with him.
She was in a very disappointed mood, but the man around her seemed unaware of her emotional changes.
Seeing them coming, Mr. Qi waved to Huo Shenting.
Shen Shiqing calmed down her emotions, and squeezed out a faint smile on her face, not as good-looking as when she came here just now.
Huo Shenting walked up to Old Qi and greeted him calmly and modestly.
"Old Qi."
Qi Lao nodded, glanced at Shen Shiqing beside Huo Shenting, and frowned slightly.
Ye Shu's presents were all delivered, but Huo Shenting didn't want to bring her instead.
Huo Shenting saw that Elder Qi didn't like the look in Shen Shiqing's eyes, so he whispered in Shen Shiqing's ear.
"You go to other places to rest first, Mr. Qi and I have something to talk about."
Shen Shiqing was taken aback when she heard the words. The people present today were all distinguished families, she was not familiar with these people, and Mrs. Qi seemed to have a prejudice against her. If she left Huo Shenting, she would be in a very embarrassing situation.
When she came, she had no idea that he would leave her alone.
"Okay, let's talk slowly."
Even though there is a lot of dissatisfaction in my heart, I can only accept it with a smile on my face.
For a man of Huo Shenting's status, as long as the women around him are sensible enough, that's enough.
She must be generous enough, so that Ye Shu will appear less considerate compared to her.
Seeing Shen Shiqing approaching, Mr. Qi looked at Huo Shenting with seriousness and displeasure.
Mr. Qi is from the generation of Huo Shenting's grandfather. In the early years, Mr. Qi and Huo Shenting's grandfather had a good friendship. When the Qi family fell, the Huo family also helped.
Mr. Qi has also heard about the grievances between the Huo family and the Liang family in the capital.
As the chairman of the chamber of commerce, Mr. Qi naturally stood by Huo Shenting's side to help resist the Liang family's entry into the G market.
"Shen Ting, why didn't you bring your wife here on an occasion like today?"
Huo Shenting was a little shocked when Qi Lao suddenly said such words. Qi Lao is not someone who cares about who he associates with, but today he mentioned Ye Shu inexplicably.
Could it be that Ye Shu's background...
His brows were tightly furrowed, and he looked at Old Qi with a little wariness in his eyes.
"Could Mr. Qi change his mind about Liang Senye?"
His voice was cold and indifferent, and the expression on his face was calm when he spoke.
These two far-fetched topics made Mr. Qi stunned for a moment.
"Answer to the wrong question, did you and Ms. Ye get into a fight?"
Huo Shenting raised his brows without a trace.
"No."
His voice was indifferent and cold, and he looked calm, but when he mentioned Ye Shu, he was obviously impatient and wanted to change the subject.
Mr. Qi didn't intend to interfere with Huo Shenting's emotional affairs, but just reminded him kindly.
"On such an occasion, I'd better bring my wife over next time. My old lady likes the necklace that Ms. Ye gave me very much, so I'll bring it here next time to let her get to know each other."
Huo Shenting heard that the deep eyes deepened a lot, deep and steady.
His eyes turned to Mrs. Qi, and saw that Mrs. Qi was surrounded by wives from other merchants. Mrs. Qi really liked the necklace Ye Shu gave her, and she showed it off to everyone around without listening.
A woman who is obviously over half a hundred years old, but looks like a child.
Old Qi followed his wife with his eyes, smiling and shaking his head.
"Still like a child."
Mr. Qi is ten years older than Mrs. Qi, and from the corners of Mrs. Qi's eyes and brows, one can see that he likes his wife.
"My wife is always my own. Doting on women outside is worse than doting on your own."
After Qi Lao finished speaking, he patted Huo Shenting on the shoulder.
Huo Shenting's cold lips were pursed into a straight line, and he didn't intend to discuss this topic with Mr. Qi.
"The people from the Liang family, haven't they come?"
"I sent for someone, but no one came."
When Mr. Qi talked about business, his expression became serious.
Liang Senye wanted to settle in City G, but he didn't know the people who took the initiative to please the chamber of commerce. He sent the invitation himself, but he didn't even come.
Huo Shenting's face was cold and serious.
Liang Senye probably didn't know that there was a Chamber of Commerce in G City that dominated the economic artery of G City.
If foreign businessmen want to gain a foothold in City G, they must join this chamber of commerce.
"It's fine if you don't come. It seems that he just came to G City to play tickets. If he doesn't get any benefits, he will leave naturally."
Although Old Qi said so, the look on his face did not relax in the slightest.
Huo Shenting's facial expression did not relax at all because of what Old Qi said.
Anyone who knows Liang Senye's deeds knows how cunning Liang Senye is.
If he didn't come this time, he might be planning something behind his back.
The Liang family didn't show up all night. Shen Shiqing saw that Huo Shenting and Mr. Qi had finished their conversation, and Mr. Qi was also going to entertain other guests, so he walked out from the corner of the sofa, walked to Huo Shenting, and said softly .
"Shen Ting, are you done talking?"
Seeing her, Huo Shenting frowned slightly and nodded casually.
Seeing Huo Shenting's eyes, Shen Shiqing felt a little apprehensive, and quickly said with an innocent face.
"Sorry, I didn't do you any favors today."
As she spoke, she lowered her head, her fingers tightly intertwined, with a look of entanglement and self-blame.
"I don't know why Mrs. Qi is so full of prejudice against me."
When she was sitting there just now, she didn't give up and wanted to join Mrs. Qi and their conversation circle, but before she could walk over, she was stopped by Mrs. Qi's eyes.
"You also think the necklace I'm wearing is unique and beautiful, don't you?"
"Yeah, it's really good-looking. It's very suitable for you. It's a work that the designer has worked hard on."
