Bold and passionate love: Acting coquettishly in Mr. Huo's arms

"Han Xing, it's really not easy to ask you out for a meeting."

Even though she had something to ask for help, she was repeatedly stood up. Aunt Huo couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied, and said with a hidden needle: "Aunt, you've been urged and begged so hard, almost knelt and kowtowed three times, and finally got you out."

"Auntie knows that Qianqian got into trouble before, and I was busy taking care of Mr. Gu's orchids." Ruan Xingchen gathered the shawl around her shoulders and said with a smile, "So, as soon as I had some free time, I came to apologize to Auntie."

Regardless of whether what she said was true or false, Aunt Huo could save face, so she naturally did not pursue the matter further and put on a smiling face again.

The ladies were very curious and asked in surprise, "Mrs. Huo, did you really save Mr. Gu's orchid?"

"I heard that orchids are very difficult to cultivate...Mrs. Huo is quite capable. Did you learn this specifically?"

"I just know a little bit about orchid cultivation." Facing their curiosity, Ruan Xingchen smiled faintly: "It's also luck that made me successful."

Seeing that she didn't seem difficult to talk to, the ladies asked more questions.

For a moment, it seemed as if everyone was revolving around her.

Aunt Huo was upset at being ignored and couldn't help but say in a gloomy way, "Although the back alleys of West Street are slums, there's no land there, right? Planting flowers and grass like this is almost the same as farming, right? Han Xing, are you planting anything there?"

As she spoke, she covered her lips with a smile and said, "I saw on the news that some uncultured grandpas and grandmas would dig up the ornamental plants in the community green belt and grow vegetables there themselves. Han Xing, you don't grow things like this, do you?"

After the ridicule, she added: "Alas, aunt has never seen such a scene, I only heard about it. If I am wrong, Han Xing, please don't be offended."

"How could that be?" Ruan Xingchen smiled slightly.

"It's not your fault that you're not very knowledgeable. This is what happens when you don't have much education. You'd better not say such things when you go out, otherwise others will laugh at you if they hear them."

Isn't it just a weird feeling?

Aunt Huo's face looked a little ugly, and she tried hard to lift the corner of her mouth: "Yes, is that so? What's so funny about this? I just don't have much contact with it."

"We're all family, would I lie to Auntie?" Ruan Xingchen covered her lips, saying this, but the contempt between her brows was clearly revealed. "Those orchid experts are very popular. If they heard Auntie say they only know how to farm, I'm afraid they wouldn't be happy."

"Besides, farmers who do their best are also the wealth of the country. How can there be any hierarchy?" Her eyes were cold. "Although I come from a humble background, I also know that we should treat people equally. I know that my aunt has no ill intentions, but if she doesn't know how to speak like this, she will offend people if she goes out."

"After all... if we count back a few generations, how many of us haven't farmed in our family? Right?"

Aunt Huo was speechless for a moment, and most of the other ladies were also embarrassed, with vague eyes as they responded.

When a person is confident and determined enough, others will unconsciously follow his lead and blindly follow him.

The ladies were afraid that they would appear ignorant and embarrassed, so they acted in agreement, which made Aunt Huo even more embarrassed.

Ever since she started holding this investment conference under the name of afternoon tea, she has been sought after by these ladies. How could she have been ignored like this?

After a while, she calmed down and forced a smile, "What are you doing standing outside? Come in."

"Is this the place?" At this moment, a familiar voice came from the door.

The visitor didn't care about the gentle whispers of a wealthy lady. She muttered while stomping her high heels quickly: "This is so confusing, it makes me dizzy."

Ruan Xingchen looked back, a hint of smile flashing in his eyes.

Mother Liu was dizzy and holding the invitation. When she saw her, her eyes suddenly lit up and her voice was so high that the ladies frowned: "Ms. Ruan! You are here too? This is great!"

She was incredibly straightforward. Regardless of the afternoon tea host being right beside her, she approached and said warmly, "I received this invitation, saying it was about investment or something... I thought it was a scam! If I wasn't bored, I wouldn't have planned to come at all."

"Now that I see you here, I feel relieved." She smiled with admiration in her eyes, "It's always right to follow Ms. Ruan."

Aunt Huo's face darkened, and after a while she reluctantly said, "Madam Liu, you're joking. We all invested willingly, so there's no such thing as a scam."

The ladies who were called "fools" also looked unhappy and responded one after another:

"It's just... no one's forcing you to pay, so why are you saying such harsh words?"

"Who is this lady? Why have I never seen her before?"

"How come anyone can come here...Ms. Huo is kind enough to help everyone get rich, but some people just take her kindness for granted."

As a result, his attitude towards Ruan Xingchen, who was obviously an old acquaintance, also became bad.

They had always looked down on Ruan Xingchen's background, and now they were even more angry. Their eyes were looking up to the sky and their nostrils were almost turned up.

The Liu family was originally a latecomer. In the eyes of these upper-class people, they were just nouveau riche who had become rich overnight. They had money but no background, so they were not highly regarded.

Mother Liu has been determined to deal with Mr. Liu these days. Seeing that the man who was impatient and indifferent to her in the past is now following her like a dog, she suddenly lost interest.

I just got a happy divorce a few days ago, and my net worth suddenly increased.

Aunt Huo was attracted by her because she was not knowledgeable but had considerable wealth, so she took the initiative to make friends with her and invited her to the afternoon tea.

Mother Liu had never seen such a scene before, so she couldn't help but feel uneasy and shrank back for a moment.

"Mrs. Liu is just straightforward. Why bother with it?" Ruan Xingchen patted her on the back and said coldly, "The amount is not small. It's always good to be more vigilant. After all, not everyone is born with a silver spoon in their mouth like you ladies, with money blowing in like the wind."

She smiled faintly: "Not only Madam Liu, I will also open my eyes and think carefully before investing!"

When she said this, the others felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

How can money come from the wind?

If they really had enough money, they wouldn't have tried every possible means to coax Aunt Huo to invest together.

Wouldn’t it be nice to get a beauty treatment, go shopping, play cards, and live a luxurious, mindless life as a lady?

The Huo family is the top wealthy family in H City. Now that Mrs. Huo said so, even if they feel disdainful in their hearts, what else can they say?

The scene was silent for a moment. Aunt Huo became increasingly unhappy. She forced a smile and said, "It's my duty, it's my duty."
