"Mom, don't say that to her." Pain flashed in Zhong Shaoyang's eyes, and he defended himself, "She was just protecting her family."

"What kind of family member is my husband's half-sister?" Lin Rou curled her lips in disdain. "People from poor places are always petty. Do you think the Huo family is still the same as before? If Huo Yan were here, he would have been furious. It's embarrassing and can cause trouble. If you marry someone like this, Mom will be pissed off sooner or later."

"She...if she's taught more, she'll understand." Zhong Shaoyang bit his lip, his eyes filled with sadness. "Besides, she's already married, and I can't marry her back."

He did not refute Lin Rou's accusation.

Lin Rou became even more arrogant. "You're just stubborn. What else is good about a woman like this besides her face? When I marry a wife, I want someone like Xiao Mian who is well-educated, sensible, and gentle. You'll understand my painstaking efforts in the future. How can I harm you?"

Zhong Shaoyang didn't say anything, but just looked at Ruan Xingchen's back from a distance, a little dazed for a moment.

She seemed even more beautiful after leaving the slums.

She has shed the aura of a rebellious and stubborn young girl, and her every move is full of allure that makes people unconsciously allure. She is so beautiful, bright and flamboyant that people can't take their eyes off her.

Every time I see her, she seems to be even more beautiful.

Even in an argument where she refused to give in, she was still like a burning flame, passionate, beautiful, and captivating.

With the status of the Huo family, there are not many guests that Ruan Xingchen needs to entertain personally.

Surprisingly, the siblings Gu Zhuo and Gu Jiu also came to visit with valuable gifts.

Old Master Gu had two sons in his life. The eldest son and his wife died in a plane crash a few years ago, leaving behind only the siblings Gu Zhuo and Gu Jiu.

The male protagonist of the book, Gu Zhao, is the only son of the second son.

The ending of the two siblings in the book is not good, and they can be regarded as villains with a lot of roles.

Gu Zhuo's dream is to become a skilled surgeon and he has no interest in business. On the other hand, Gu Jiu has a talent for business, and Old Man Gu even considers passing the family business to her.

Unfortunately, no matter how talented she was, she could never compete with Gu Zhao's aura as the protagonist. She was tricked into a trap and her investment failed. She got drunk in frustration and her body was picked up by someone.

That would have been fine, but those obscene videos somehow got spread all over the internet. Gu Jiu couldn't stand the rumors and committed suicide.

However, Gu Zhuo hated the male protagonist because of this, and argued with him for hundreds of chapters, and finally ended up in prison.

When cannon fodder meets cannon fodder, there is a sense of familiarity.

"Mrs. Huo." Gu Jiu was still young and a little more lively. She took two steps forward with intimacy in her eyes: "Long time no see."

"Welcome." Ruan Xingchen had a good impression of her.

Although the girl is young, she handles things very thoroughly. We can almost get a glimpse of the strong woman who will compete with the male protagonist for the family inheritance in the future.

"Grandpa was so heartbroken when his beloved orchid was damaged that he acted too aggressively." Gu Zhuo smiled faintly, shook hands, and presented a gift. "Now that he's calmed down, he specifically asked us two to apologize. I hope Madam Huo and the Fourth Miss can forgive you."

hiss--

Some guests couldn't help but gasp.

What was the origin of this Mrs. Huo? Wasn't it said that she came from a poor family and her biological father was just an ordinary rich man with no background?

How come Wu Zheng and Gu Zhuo, whose brothers were beaten and whose orchids were destroyed, were not angry but instead had attitudes that were more earnest than the other and acted extremely humble.

Isn’t this method too sophisticated?

Those who think more can't help but have conspiracy theories in their hearts.

Gu Zhuo is the eldest grandson of the Gu family, and Wu Zheng is the person in charge of the Wu family. The three giants in H City get along harmoniously. Is there going to be any big move?

Or do you think that because Huo Yan was injured recently, the business world has been in turmoil, and they want to unite and crack down on other companies?

It seems that we still need to be cautious and wait and see, and behave ourselves.

At the same time, he became more cautious and careful in his attitude towards Ruan Xingchen, and dared not look down on him anymore.

During this period, in order to show that he was not trying to delay time, Ruan Xingchen took pictures of the orchid every day, and sent the measures he took and the changes in the orchid in a clear and orderly manner to the mobile phone of Mr. Gu's assistant.

She was sincere and never perfunctory in her treatment of orchids. Most importantly... the double-petaled white-crowned lotus was indeed showing signs of improvement.

Who who loves orchids doesn’t want to make friends with a master who can cultivate and grow orchids?

The level displayed by Ruan Xingchen was even more surprising.

Old Master Gu wanted to show goodwill, and thinking of his previous ruthless behavior, he asked the two juniors to come and apologize.

The attitude is very sincere.

"You're too kind." Ruan Xingchen's eyes shone with a hint of smile. "Our Huo family is responsible for this matter. It's understandable that the old man lost his temper in a hurry. Why should he apologize?"

Huo Yan's leg has improved significantly, and he only needs to wait for the wound to heal before starting rehabilitation.

She became more and more fond of the surgeon, Gu Zhuo, and treated him particularly cordially.

Both parties were interested in contact, so they naturally got along well. However, after a moment, Gu Jiu shamelessly took her arm and said, "Mrs. Huo, I am the same age as Miss Huo Si. Can I also call you sister-in-law?"

"If you want your elder brother to marry your sister-in-law, then let her marry him himself. Why are you looking for my sister-in-law?" Huo Qianqian, who happened to pass by, got furious and stomped her feet in anger.

If it wasn't impolite, she would have wanted to pull her away.

There are also villains who have been trying to steal my sister-in-law!

You have a brother, so why are you clinging to someone else's sister-in-law?

Gu Zhuo was surprised to find himself in trouble for attending such an ordinary banquet. He smiled bitterly and spread his hands: "It's my incompetence that has disappointed my sister."

"No." Gu Jiu stuck out his tongue and said playfully, "I don't want a sister-in-law. I just want a sister-in-law like Mrs. Huo."

After she finished speaking, she realized that her words were ambiguous, and her face turned red with uneasiness: "No, that's not what I meant... I just like Mrs. Huo too much."

Gu Zhuo also felt a little uncomfortable. He rubbed the tip of his nose subconsciously, and his eyes couldn't help but glance at Ruan Xingchen.

"There are so many people who like my sister-in-law." Huo Qianqian didn't think it was wrong, and muttered, "She is also my sister-in-law."

Humph, don't think she can't see it. Those celebrities cling to her and talk about her sister-in-law every three sentences.

He clearly envies her for having such a beautiful, brave and protective sister-in-law. He has bad intentions!

It’s so annoying. Everyone is coveting her sister-in-law.

Hugging her other arm sourly, she looked around: "Sister-in-law, where is my brother?"

Is Big Brother still capable? If he doesn’t come out to claim his sovereignty, what will happen if his Big Sister-in-law is snatched away by someone else?

"He's resting in his room." Ruan Xingchen's eyes flickered, and he whispered, "Do you have something to talk to him about?"

Now is not the time for Huo Yan to show up.

If you want to catch all the little mice hiding in the dark, the cat always has to hide patiently for a while longer.

"No, just asking." Huo Qianqian waved her hand and turned her eyes: "Sister-in-law, you are busy. I will take Miss Gu to meet my friends."
