The clouds and mists have dispersed, and everyone knows that I love you.

"Mr. Huo, it's not okay for me to go to your own dinner party, right?"

When things developed to this point, Shi Rong finally understood why Huo Jiuzhou insisted on taking her back to the Huo family tonight. After all, it turned out that this was the order Huo Yan gave him.

But, for an insignificant outsider like her, it would be inappropriate to attend such a formal family dinner, right?

Huo Yan glanced at her suspiciously, feeling helpless.

"Xiao Er, are you trying to keep me away from you? You know, if it weren't for you, the Huo family's family banquet would have been held on the 25th of every month."

That's quite straightforward!

He just admitted it so generously?

Shi Rong twitched the corners of his speechless mouth. Although he was reluctant, he still shook his head and waved his hands as usual, trying to find nice things to say.

"Of course not. How could I refuse Mr. Huo's invitation? It's my honor."

After a pause, Shi Rong continued.

"I came here in a hurry, and I didn't prepare any decent gifts for you."

Shi Rongsu waved her hand, and Miao Man and Lan Chuan immediately worked together to lift a rectangular brocade embroidered gift box, opened the lid and presented it.

"I heard that Mr. Huo loves gold, stone and jade. This box of glazed Huangshan jade was excavated locally from Dusu Mountain in Dongcheng. I hope Mr. Huo will accept it."

Damn it! ?

Xing Jiashan and Song Qianchen, who had been following Huo Jiuzhou throughout the whole process, were so shocked when they saw Shi Rong's generous gift that they rubbed their eyes.

A pure Huangshan jade like this one with elegant color, beautiful shape, mellow texture, exquisite and translucent shape, delicate and warm touch, weighing more than 100 kilograms, must be worth at least tens of billions, right?

Are the gifts given to each other by wealthy families so expensive nowadays?

It's unbelievable!

"Xiao Er is really thoughtful! When it comes to catering to people's preferences, no one can match you. I like you very much."

Huo Yan saw with his own eyes the great gift that Shi Rong presented to him. Before he could even touch it, he felt enlightened and refreshed.

"Wen Quan, take someone to take it."

"Yes!"

Wen Quan summoned four well-trained bodyguards in black behind him, and they carefully put away the box of carefully selected Huangshan jade and stored it cautiously.

Seeing this, Shi Rong smiled indifferently, as if she didn't care about these material possessions.

"As long as Mr. Huo likes it."

Huo Yan nodded with satisfaction, feeling that he had made the right choice for Huo Jiuzhou in choosing Shi Rong as his granddaughter-in-law.

"Okay, it's windy outside, come in."

Having said that, without waiting for Shi Rong to refute, he glared at Huo Jiuzhou beside her.

"Look at your careless nature. Look at how cold Rong'er's hands are. Who are you waiting for to warm them? Your grandfather, me?"

"Ah…"

Shi Rong was amused by Huo Yan's puffed-out and glaring look, and quickly lowered his head to look at the emerald jade and gold stone pavement under his feet, trying to hide his rudeness.

Don't mention it, she really looks like her late grandfather...

But the man who was scolded by him curled his lips without any boasting.

"Grandpa is right, my grandson is not doing well."

After he finished speaking, Huo Jiuzhou directly pulled Shi Rong's cold hands over, unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt, and pressed them against his strong and well-developed chest muscles.

"Hey…"

Shi Rong clearly felt that when her palm covered the man's warm chest, even though he shuddered from the cold, he still refused to let go.

This look is very similar to Shi Rong at the beginning. Even though she knew that there would be no future between her and Huo Jiuzhou, she still did it without hesitation.

Shi Rong smiled in shame and wanted to pull his hands back, but found that he had tied them too tightly and he couldn't break free at all.

After recovering, Huo Jiuzhou ignored the presence of many people, put his long arms around her slender waist, and put his thin lips close to her soft earlobe.

"Ah Rong, it's my fault. I'll keep you warm tonight."

……

Shi Rong understood the meaning of his words and was speechless on the spot. Her face turned red with shame unconsciously. She retracted her hands in frustration and hit him angrily.

The force was neither light nor heavy, and it didn't hurt either.

"Oh, what nonsense are you talking about... I'm so annoyed."

"Hahaha!"

Huo Jiuzhou was beaten in public, but instead of getting angry, he lowered his eyes and looked at her shy face. He felt very happy and laughed.

He held up Shi Rong's face and kissed her lovingly and cherishingly, but before he finished the kiss, Huo Zhengtong and Mei Wei came forward from both sides to interrupt him.

"Jiuzhou, the old man is still waiting for you."

It’s already this time, and you’re still kissing!

What a useless son!

Mei glared at Huo Jiuzhou, then took Shi Rong's arm affectionately and walked towards the main courtyard.

"This side is the pavilion in the middle of the lake, and over there are swimming koi fish."

Mei Wei led Shi Rong inside and gave her a detailed introduction.

It's funny to say that Shi Rong has never been to Huo Yan's main courtyard since she entered the Huo family mansion five years ago, and she has never been qualified to attend the so-called Huo family dinner.

Now, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, it is just a passing cloud in Shi Rong's eyes.

Shi Rong never understood the saying "A rich man has many friends and relatives" before, and she was grateful to Huo Yan for helping her to understand it.

Stepping into the main courtyard restaurant, Shi Rong took a quick look at the beige wallpaper with gold relief and a swastika pattern of longevity and happiness. Under his feet was a dark gray, silver-brown, short-pile carpet with a lantern pattern, paired with a mutton-fat jade coffee table and a llama wool sofa.

7 rosewood dining tables and carved dining chairs, a true expression of extravagance and decadence.

Shi Rong was arranged to sit at the secondary seat at the main table where Huo Yan was sitting. On his right was Huo Jiuzhou, and below him were Xing Jiashan, Song Qianchen, Huo Yishu, Huo Yili, Huo Yigen, Huo Wanwan, Huo Qiye, and Huo Yiyan, sitting around Huo Yan in the center.

The rest of the people sat at the remaining six tables in the order of the rooms, from top to bottom, including each person's entourage and close subordinates.

Shi Rong turned around and winked at Miao Man and Lan Chuan who were still standing there, and the two of them sat down next to Huo Xun and Huo Zun.

"Tonight's dishes were specially prepared by Jiuzhou. From what I've seen, they're all dishes that Rong'er likes. You must eat more."

Before the meal started, Shi Rong took the wet towel handed to him by the Huo family maid, wiped his hands, and nodded with a smile.

"it is good."

Picking up the chopsticks at hand, Shi Rong saw that Huo Yan, who was sitting at the host seat, had finished eating. Then she picked up a piece of asparagus and shrimp closest to her, put it in her mouth, and ate it with the rice in the bowl.

She was wondering, if she ate faster, could she end this unbearable Huo family dinner sooner?

As soon as this thought flashed through her mind, she saw Huo Jiuzhou pick up every dish on the table for her.

Shi Rong was speechless.

Great, it’s another messy day!

Halfway through the meal, seeing Shi Rong gradually speeding up his eating speed, Huo Yan smiled knowingly and spoke politely.

"Xian'er eats so fast, maybe she is exhausted today and wants to go back and rest early?"

Shi Rong was stunned and quickly put down the bowl and chopsticks in embarrassment.

It seems that she is really not good at using any tricks. After all, she can always be seen through at a glance.

"Ah...no."
