Will he also go to the engagement party tomorrow night?

Qiao Qin thought about it and realized that it seemed like she hadn't seen Huo Shiyan for almost a month. She thought she had let him go, but she couldn't help but feel heartbroken when she saw the news about him.

A moment of silence.

Qiao Qin tightened her fingers around the wedding invitation slightly, took a deep breath, and the hesitation in her eyes gradually turned into determination.

She and Huo Shiyan no longer have any relationship, and continuing to avoid it will not solve the problem. She must go to the engagement party tomorrow night.

In the blink of an eye.

As night falls and the stars twinkle, the sky seems to be covered with a deep blue-black coat.

The hotel was brightly lit, and luxury cars were parked at the door and then taken to the magnificent lobby by waiters.

"You are Miss Qiao, right? I am Huo Ziqi."

The man was wearing a high-end suit, with a smile on his handsome face, but there was no smile in his eyes.

Logically speaking, Qiao Qin is his cousin's wife, but he doesn't have the right attitude towards his elders.

Qiao Qin frowned. She could sense the strong hostility from the other party, but they had clearly never met before.

Followed by.

"I really don't know what my cousin likes about you. You're useless except for your face." Huo Ziqi's tone was full of disdain.

He once regarded Huo Yan as his idol and dreamed of surpassing his achievements one day, but he did not expect to receive the news of his cousin's death after returning to China.

Qiao Qin lowered her head and clenched her hands into fists at her sides. No matter who was scolded like this, it would be difficult to have a good face.

fortunately.

As the protagonist of the engagement party, Huo Ziqi was soon called away.

Qiao Qin didn't want to cause any more trouble, so she walked to a corner, planning to leave quickly after a while.

At this moment, a shadow suddenly fell in front of my eyes.

"Beauty, is this seat taken?"

A strange male voice sounded, she looked up and saw a delicate face with skin whiter than a woman's and a pair of peach blossom eyes slightly upturned as if they could speak.

Qiao Qin was stunned for a moment.

She deliberately chose a corner, with empty seats all around her, but the person in front of her seemed invisible and just happened to sit next to her.

"Hello, Miss Qiao. My name is Yang Jingxing, the second young master of the Yang family."

Qiao Qin nodded politely, and when she met those smiling peach blossom eyes, she felt something strange in her heart.

At this time, the engagement party also began.

On the stage, Huo Ziqi was wearing a suit and kneeling on one knee in front of a woman in a white wedding dress, holding a diamond ring the size of a pigeon egg in his hand.

"Promise him! Promise him!"

There was a lot of cheering going on all around, and the air seemed to be filled with pink bubbles.

Qiao Qin stared at this scene intently, and was entranced without realizing it.

until--

"Ms. Qiao, did Mr. Huo propose to you before you married him?" Yang Jingxing's voice suddenly came to my ears.

Qiao Qin shook her head.

She and Huo Yan got their marriage certificate on the first day they met, and on the second day he was in a car accident and his life or death was unknown. How could there be a proposal ceremony?

Thinking of this, Qiao Qin lowered her head, feeling a little sad. No girl would not yearn for a romantic proposal ceremony.

Not only did she never experience the feeling of being proposed to, she didn't even have the simplest date. She skipped the entire process and went straight to the stage of getting married and having children.

"Sorry for bringing up your sad story. I'll drink a glass as a punishment." Yang Jingxing picked up the wine glass, tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp. A few drops of wine-red liquid slid down the corners of his mouth to his sexy collarbone, bringing a hint of temptation.

Qiao Qin didn't even look at him, still thinking about the regret in her heart.

Yang Jingxing's smile froze slightly, and he handed her another glass of red wine, "Drink to relieve your sorrow. Can you have a drink if you feel sad?"

"I'm pregnant and I don't drink." Qiao Qin refused directly. She was wary of this strange man who suddenly appeared.

Yang Jingxing didn't care. He withdrew his hand, picked up the side dishes on the table with chopsticks and ate and drank, as if he had excluded everyone else from his own world.

Seeing this, a hint of doubt flashed across Qiao Qin's eyes.

Did she think too much?

Qiao Qin shook her head. Too many things had happened recently, causing her to become sensitive and suspicious.

As time passes by.

Qiao Qin had completely let down her guard, and at this moment, the waiter accidentally hit her cup when serving the dish.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." The man apologized immediately, his voice trembling as if he was extremely scared.

Qiao Qin didn't want to embarrass these workers, so she waved her hand and said, "It's okay, just be more careful next time."

At this time, Yang Jingxing suddenly handed over a glass of juice, "Do you want some extra?"

Qiao Qin nodded: "Thank you."

Time passed by minute by minute, and the engagement party came to an end.

Qiao Qin stood up and planned to leave early. She couldn't help but look around but didn't see the familiar figure.

Suddenly, her vision became blurry and she even saw double.

what happened?

Qiao Qin's body swayed, and she managed to stand steady by holding onto the dining table in front of her.

"Ms. Qiao, are you okay?" Yang Jingxing's concerned voice rang in his ears.

Qiao Qin lowered her head, and the last glance she took before losing consciousness happened to meet the triumphant smile on his face.

Her heart skipped a beat, but she fainted before she could call for help.

After a while.

"My girlfriend is a little sleepy. Can you help us arrange a room?" Yang Jingxing supported the unconscious Qiao Qin and asked the staff for directions.

......

at the same time.

"Mr. Huo has already arrived at the engagement party, and he has also met an illegitimate child of the Yang family. We were afraid of being discovered so we didn't dare to get too close, but there was a recorder nearby that has been sent for repair."

Assistant Yan looked serious and reported seriously.

Huo Shiyan hummed, his long eyelashes drooping slightly to hide his emotions, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Ding dong!"

Assistant Yan lowered his head and looked at the new message on his phone, which happened to be a two-minute recording after the repair.

He took out his Bluetooth headphones and clicked the play button, but as time passed, his expression became uglier and uglier.

Huo Shiyan frowned: "What's wrong?"

Assistant Yan swallowed and lowered his voice: "Mr. Huo, the kidnapping case eighteen years ago was indeed related to Mr. Huo San."

Huo Shiyan's eyes flickered slightly, and a fierce and violent aura burst out from his body. The temperature around him seemed to drop by one degree.

"Uncle San, I didn't expect it to be you." His voice was cold, as if it was quenched by ice.

Assistant Yan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and continued to speak: "There is one more thing."

Huo Shiyan: "Speak."

"Ms. Qiao has been targeted by Mr. Huo San, and he plans to let the illegitimate son of the Yang family take action at the engagement party." Assistant Yan spoke cautiously.

Huo Shiyan frowned: "What do you mean?"

"That's it..." Assistant Yan felt his scalp tingling when he thought of the contents of the recording, and stammered, "Yang Jingxing drugged Miss Qiao and then ruined her reputation at the engagement party."

There was no need to continue with the rest of the conversation, as Huo Shiyan could probably guess what was going to happen.

Either Yang Jingxing insisted on being responsible for Qiao Qin and remarried into the Yang family with the huge inheritance.

Either Qiao Qin would be disgraced and boycotted by the Huo family, and Mr. Huo Sanye would come out to mediate, and then when the child was born, the mother would be killed and the child would be kept.
