Hong Kong is in full swing
Chapter 224: Don't fight to the death
Relying on the powerful influence given by his own professional characteristics, he successfully aroused the attention and support of a large number of netizens in a short period of time, which directly led to Qiao Peifeng being subjected to overwhelming criticism.
That night he was in a critical situation again and his life was seriously threatened.
When he returned home in the evening, Huo Chuyan was waiting at the door to greet Yu Wan, who had just returned. The latter gave her a passionate and gentle hug without hesitation.
"I am back!"
She said happily.
Huo Chuyan's eyes were filled with a warm smile, and he hugged her back tightly, "Welcome home."
Yu Wan smiled and rubbed gently in his arms, a gentle smile on her face.
With her face buried in his arms, she suddenly smelled a faint scent of women's perfume on him. The fragrance was vague, but clearly discernible.
She paused for a moment, trying to maintain a calm tone and asked calmly, "Does Mr. Huo have a dinner party tonight?"
Huo Chuyan rubbed her head with his big hands, showing a doting smile, and asked: "Does the smell of alcohol on me seem obvious?"
There was a hint of helplessness and mockery in his tone.
Yu Wan supported his arm and whispered, "Go take a shower first."
"Ah."
Huo Chuyan responded softly, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
The moonlight gently shines into the room, creating a soft atmosphere.
Yu Wan raised her head and looked at Huo Chuyan who was sleeping soundly, feeling unusually calm inside.
She gently turned over and lay down facing the ceiling, staring at it with a dull look, her mind full of thoughts.
The sound of a message suddenly rang from her cell phone, interrupting her momentary peace.
It is a notification of updates from bloggers you follow on Instagram.
With a light swipe of her finger on the screen, she saw the pictures and texts that Chu Rong had posted not long ago.
There is an exquisite photo below the text.
[Being able to stand by your side is the most enduring romance in the world. ]
There is a full sense of happiness between the lines.
The accompanying picture is a photo of a night party. In the photo, she is smiling and holding a glass. The tall figure of Huo Chuyan can be vaguely seen in the corner behind her. Although blurry, one can still feel the intimacy and dependence.
Yu Wan dropped her phone, hugged Huo Chuyan again, and continued to fall into her dream.
The next morning, the Qiao family called and Qiao Shucheng invited Yu Wan to go back for dinner in the afternoon to celebrate his release from prison.
She frowned slightly, her voice filled with dissatisfaction, "Father is still in the hospital, his life uncertain, and Big Brother is so impatient to throw a big banquet? This is too unfilial."
Qiao Shucheng responded coldly, "Fourth sister, don't provoke me like that. I'm not the same person I used to be. No matter what you say, I won't fall for it again. Let me tell you, we have an important guest at home tonight. You can choose not to come, but you have to think about the consequences carefully."
After saying these words, Qiao Shucheng hung up the phone directly, as if he didn't want to give Yu Wan another chance to explain.
His change was really surprising, as if prison had really become a place for his transformation and reform, just like it turned Qiao Shucheng from a naughty monkey into a mature and steady person.
Yu Wan held the phone in her hand, her eyes flickering as she repeated in a low voice: "Important guest..."
His tone was full of doubt and confusion.
I wonder who it will be...
At eight o'clock in the evening, Yu Wan returned to the Qiao family villa in Pengcheng.
As soon as you enter the door, you can feel the busy atmosphere in the villa. The servants are busy coming in and out to tidy up everything.
Yang Shiyu and Qiao Heng were sitting in the main room waiting for her. When they saw her come home, a gloating smile appeared on their faces.
Yu Wan frowned slightly, feeling a little confused.
What does it mean that these two people are acting so abnormally?
At this moment, Qiao Shucheng's voice suddenly came: "Fourth sister, look who's here?"
There was a barely perceptible hint of excitement in his voice.
She slowly turned around and looked in the direction of the voice.
Qiao Shucheng was seen walking from the end of the corridor with a strange smile on his face. Next to him stood another person, a face that Yu Wan hated to the core - Qiao Shuqie.
Qiao Shuqi is about thirty-five or thirty-six years old this year. He is handsome, but he has an extremely obvious long scar from the left side of his cheek to the corner of his mouth. This scar seems to be the only flaw in his entire face.
That was a "masterpiece" she left for him when she was eighteen years old.
He reportedly attempted to remove it through surgery, but sadly, it is still visible to this day.
When the two old enemies stood face to face, rage involuntarily ignited in their eyes.
There is no doubt that when enemies meet, they are particularly jealous of each other.
She thought so as she looked at Qiao Shuqi in front of her, and at the same time she could feel the undisguised resentment in his eyes.
Those extremely cold eyes looked at him coldly like a poisonous snake, as if looking for an opportunity to attack.
"You've grown up, Miss Xiaowan."
Qiao Shuqi spoke, his tone full of sarcasm.
At that moment, the desperate and desolate scene of the rainy night suddenly emerged in Yu Wan's mind.
She unconsciously clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging deep into her flesh, fearing that she would lose her mind and confront him if she wasn't careful.
After realizing that the situation was unfavorable to her, Yu Wan quickly turned around and prepared to leave to avoid further escalation of the conflict.
However, just as she took a few steps, Qiao Shucheng stopped her and said, "Fourth sister, why didn't you visit your mother after returning from your business trip?"
Yu Wan stopped walking, took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
You know, my mother Yu Peinian is currently receiving treatment in the hospital managed by Huo Chuyan, so there is no need to worry about her being threatened or anything like that.
But today is definitely not a good time to lose face.
Thinking of this, she smiled and pulled over a chair to sit down.
"Don't worry about Mom's affairs, big brother."
She said calmly.
He then added something seemingly concerned, but actually directed at Qiao Shuqi: "Today is the day you're released from prison, right? I'm afraid you haven't had a good meal in a while. Don't forget to eat more later."
Wen Huiying couldn't help but scold him, "You really don't know how to live or die. Do you really think no one dares to punish you?"
His words were filled with dissatisfaction towards Yu Wan.
However, Qiao Shucheng reached out to stop Wen Huiying, his tone carrying a hint of impatience, "Fourth sister, instead of arguing with me here, why not treat Young Master Kari well."
As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the whole room seemed to become tense.
Afterwards, Qiao Shuqi sat down in the seat next to Yu Wan, staring at her with a gloomy look.
There was an indescribable hostility in his eyes, as if he wanted to devour her.
Yu Wan's hand slowly reached for the knife on the table.
