After the divorce, the ex-wife remarried the world's richest man
Chapter 174 A gift for Shengxia
Huo Shu and Meng Meiqi had just suffered a setback, so they were both silent and in no mood to talk.
Only Huo Geng smiled and greeted, "I was wondering at the last charity event, when did Ting Xiao bring a female companion? It turns out it's Ting Xiao's girlfriend."
"My father even hid such a big happy event from me. My niece's wife came to visit today, and I, as her uncle, didn't even make any preparations in advance."
As he spoke, Huo Geng took out a card and handed it to Sheng Xia, "This is a meeting gift from my second uncle. It's not much, only 50 million. Take a look and buy whatever you like."
How could Shengxia have the nerve to accept so much money just after meeting someone? She refused to accept it.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Huo snatched it away and stuffed it into Shengxia's pocket. "Keep it. This is what your second uncle should give you."
"It's just a little less. I'll make it up to Xia Xia next time."
The gift for her granddaughter-in-law must be in the billions at least!
Huo Geng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and quickly responded, "Yes, yes, yes, I really didn't know this time and didn't prepare. I will make up for it next time!"
Shengxia was secretly shocked. She felt embarrassed to accept 50 million yuan for nothing.
It was Huo Tingxiao who spoke up again, "Take it. This is a token of my second uncle's kindness."
Shengxia then stopped refusing and thanked him with a smile.
Next, Mr. Huo's eyes fell on his daughter Huo Shu, and he smiled and joked: "It's okay, your aunt knew you were coming today, and she must have prepared a gift in advance."
Then, everyone's eyes fell on Huo Shu.
Huo Shu: “…”
How could she be willing to give Shengxia a gift? It was not enough that she was finding fault with her!
But at this point she had been forced into a situation and had no choice.
Looking at Mr. Huo again, although he had a smile on his face, there was deep meaning in his eyes. It was obvious that he was deliberately helping Sheng Xia!
She had just asked such a question in public, exposing everyone's embarrassment. In addition, it was she who proposed to invite Meng Meiqin, so how could Mr. Huo not guess that all this was related to Huo Shu?
Huo Shu had no choice but to laugh dryly and take out a gold-stamped card.
"Of course I've prepared a gift. This is a card worth 80 million. Miss Sheng, please buy whatever you like."
She was gritting her teeth in her heart. Who would want to give this woman a gift? She would feel bad if she gave her even a penny!
But Huo Shu's heartache still failed to satisfy Mr. Huo. He had just said he was not satisfied with the 50 million given by the second son, but she only gave 80 million?
Is it difficult to get an extra 20 million to make up 100 million? Does the Huo family need that little money?
So, Mr. Huo continued, "The preparations are not sufficient. I will continue to prepare next time."
Huo Shu: “???”
She looked at Mr. Huo with a hurt face. Her father no longer spoiled her?
In the past, it was always others who gave her gifts. When would it be her turn to give gifts to others?
Huo Tingxiao did not hesitate at all about Huo Shu's gift. He directly reached out, took the card and put it into Shengxia's hand.
It would be a waste if you don't want to. Huo Shu will be unhappy if you bleed anyway.
After receiving the card, Huo Tingxiao said directly: "Okay, let's eat."
He skipped the topic and didn't even give Shengxia a chance to say thank you.
Why thank her? Dream on!
Shengxia smiled silently and didn't say anything. She also didn't want to thank Huo Shu.
Isn't that self-abuse?
How could Huo Shu accept this after suffering repeated setbacks?
Her eyes rolled and a plan immediately came to her mind. Then she looked at Meng Meiqi and spoke with a smile.
"Mother Tingxiao, Shengxia is your future daughter-in-law. You must have prepared a gift for her, right?"
Meng Meiqin was stunned when she heard this. A meeting gift? How could she possibly prepare one!
Just now, when she saw Shengxia received so many gifts, she was already furious!
One hundred and thirty million! She received one hundred and thirty million just like that!
When she first visited the Huo family, there weren't so many gifts!
What on earth does this second-married woman have the right to do so?
As soon as Huo Shu finished speaking, Meng Meiqi instantly became the target of public criticism.
"What gift should I give her? I haven't even seen her bring any gifts to the elders!" Meng Meiqi pouted, very dissatisfied.
With just one sentence, Meng Meiqi was successfully given a cold stare by Huo Tingxiao, and she shut up instantly.
But the speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. It seems that he is not very polite to come to someone's house empty-handed for the first time.
Especially since Gong Yuqing had just given Mr. Wuming a painting to Mr. Huo. In comparison, if Shengxia gave nothing, it would be hard to avoid criticism.
Mr. Huo spoke directly: "Xia Xia will be a member of our Huo family from now on. What gifts do you need to bring back home?"
Once he spoke, everyone naturally dared not to have any opinions.
However, they were still dissatisfied in their hearts, and Shengxia knew this.
She took her time, smiled and said, "Grandpa, who said I didn't bring you a gift?"
"I was just in a hurry and forgot to take the gift with me. I'll get it for you right away."
Seeing Shengxia was about to leave, Huo Tingxiao hurriedly said, "Just sit down and eat, and let the servants bring it."
When Mr. Huo heard that Shengxia had prepared a gift for him, he smiled so hard that his teeth were showing.
"Oh, look at you, kid. You're so sensible. You came just like that and even prepared such a great gift for grandpa. Hahaha..."
Everyone: "..."
No, you’re already praising the gift before you even see it?
Could this be the legendary preference?
For a moment, everyone became curious about what kind of gift the future mistress of the Huo family could bring to the old man.
But no matter what he gives, I'm afraid it will be difficult to surpass the painting by the unknown master that Gong Yuqing just gave!
After all, that thing is not only precious, but also rare!
Under everyone's attention, the servant quickly handed an exquisite box to Shengxia.
Shengxia handed it to Mr. Huo with a smile, "Grandpa, open it and take a look. Do you like it?"
Mr. Huo was flattered. "My granddaughter-in-law is so nice. She even brought gifts for grandpa!"
"This is a gift from my granddaughter-in-law. Grandpa will definitely like it!"
Seeing that Mr. Huo kept calling her "grandson's wife", the other old men in the Huo family couldn't bear to watch.
Really, he has a granddaughter-in-law to show off, and he never stops talking to her!
Huo Shu felt very uncomfortable seeing Sheng Xia being favored like this, and her words were full of jealousy.
"Dad is so lucky today. Miss Gong just gave Dad a painting by Mr. Wuming, and now he can receive Miss Sheng..."
Huo Shu had only said half of her words when she received a "loving" look from her old father and immediately shut up.
Everyone thought so in their hearts. With Gong Yuqing Mingzhu in front, it would be difficult for this Miss Sheng to surpass her.
But when Mr. Huo opened the gift, everyone was shocked.
It’s actually a painting?
