As soon as Huo Xixi came in, Gong Zhenyu ran over to ask about her well-being like a little fan.

Du Yiyi looked at Huo Xixi as if she were her future daughter-in-law and could never adore her enough.

"Xixi, what do you think of my Zhenyu?"

Huo Xixi blushed when asked, "Aunt, I am several years older than Zhenyu."

"Aren't sister-brother relationships popular nowadays? You might as well consider my Zhenyu. He told me that he will not marry anyone else but you." Du Yiyi said seriously.

At this time, Huo Yifei also came over to help out, "Xixi, Zhenyu is a good kid, he treats people sincerely, and he has no other problems except that he is a little playful. But don't worry about one thing, he may play, but he has never done anything out of line, and my third uncle can testify to this."

"Uncle, what are you talking about? Zhenyu and I have nothing in common."

"Mom, Uncle Huo, please stop forcing Xixi. Tonight is my birthday, don't scare her away." Gong Zhenyu came out to help and took Huo Xixi away.

"Where are you taking me?" Huo Xixi was pulled out of the hall by Gong Zhenyu.

"Come with me, I have something good to give you." Gong Zhenyu pulled Xixi to the VIP lounge mysteriously.

Then he took out an exquisite jewelry box from his pocket and handed it to Huo Xixi, "Open it and take a look."

Huo Xixi opened the box and saw a ruby ​​necklace. The ruby ​​pendant was crystal clear and dazzling.

"How's it going? Pretty, isn't it?"

"Isn't this the necklace that was sold at a sky-high price? Where did you get it?" Huo Xixi had taken a fancy to this necklace worth hundreds of millions of dollars, but it was a pity that it was bought by a wealthy man from the Middle East at that time.

Later, when Gong Zhenyu learned about it, he immediately flew to the Middle East, found the rich man and persuaded him, and finally bought it back for Huo Xixi at twice the price.

"Don't worry about it. As long as it's something you like, I will get it for you no matter how hard it goes." Gong Zhenyu vowed.

However, the next second, Huo Xixi returned the necklace to Gong Zhenyu, "I liked it very much, but now I suddenly don't like it anymore. You can give it to someone else."

"No, even if you don't like it, just accept it because I went through so much trouble to buy it for you." Gong Zhenyu stuffed the necklace back.

Seeing his sincere look, Huo Xixi accepted it reluctantly. Just as she was about to turn around, she remembered something and said, "I heard that you are going to take over Baili Shipping Company?"

"You know all this. It seems that you care about me a lot." Gong Zhenyu smiled like a fool.

"I don't care about you at all. You gave me a gift, so I have to give you some advice. Be careful of those old guys in your company. They are not easy to deal with. Don't let them sell you out and help them count their money."

"You still say you don't care about me, but you are just being hard on the outside but soft on the inside."

"I'm just reminding you out of kindness because we grew up together, but don't get the wrong idea." Huo Xixi rolled her eyes at him and walked out of the VIP room.

At this time, she saw her sister Huo Nuannuan standing in the aisle leading from the VIP room to the banquet hall, as if she was worried about something.

She was just about to call sister when she saw Rong Jin coming over.

Huo Nuannuan immediately turned around and walked in the opposite direction. Rong Jin took a few steps forward and grabbed her wrist, "Why are you deliberately avoiding me?"

Huo Nuannuan was a little panicked, "I didn't, I just don't like occasions like this, there are too many people."

Rong Jin looked at Huo Nuannuan steadily, making her heart almost jump out of her chest. Suddenly, he let go of her hand and left with a look of disappointment on his face.

Huo Nuannuan stood there in a daze. She didn’t know where Rong Jin’s disappointment came from. However, at this moment, her heart seemed to be tightly grasped and then suddenly loosened. Suddenly, she felt empty.

She leaned against the wall with a sad look on her face. She felt that Rong Jin must have seen something, and she felt that she should not have come today. But when she learned that Rong Jin was also invited, she couldn't help wanting to see him. From Rong Jin, she finally understood what it meant to miss someone so much when you don't see them.

But what can I do even if I meet him?

"Your sister and Uncle Rong seem a little weird." Gong Zhenyu beside Huo Xixi said in a low voice.

Huo Xixi's expression turned cold when he heard this, and he elbowed Gong Zhenyu hard, "What nonsense are you talking about? What's so strange about that?"

"Auntie, it hurts so much." Gong Zhenyu covered her stomach and pretended to be in pain.

Huo Xixi knew at first glance that he was just pretending and didn't bother to pay attention to him.

"Hey, don't leave."

Huo Xixi walked in front and Gong Zhenyu followed behind.

At this time, Huo Nuannuan saw two people and stopped to greet them.

"Sister, didn't you say that the hospital would work overtime tonight?" Xixi remembered that Nuannuan said she couldn't come tonight.

"I just happened to change my shift so I came to take a look."

Huo Nuannuan tried her best to hide it, but Xixi could still see her unnaturalness.

"Sister, are you worried about something?" Huo Xixi recently noticed that her sister was a little depressed and thought she had a broken heart, but she heard from others that Nuannuan was not in a relationship, which was very strange.

In Xixi's eyes, her sister has always been a gentle, considerate and understanding good girl. Logically, there should be many people pursuing her, but Nuannuan has been alone all these years and doesn't even have a friend of the opposite sex. No matter how she thinks about it, it seems a bit abnormal.

"Thank you Sister Nuannuan for coming. Let's cut the cake together later?" Gong Zhenyu said.

Xixi and Nuannuan don’t look very similar. Xixi is the gorgeous type of Lu Qingqing, while Nuannuan is the pure type of Lu Qingqing. Both of them combine some of Sheng Mingxi’s advantages. In short, they both have their own merits.

"No, I have an operation tonight, so I have to rush back to the hospital. Happy birthday to you." Huo Nuannuan responded absentmindedly, then turned and left.

"Didn't your sister just say that her shift was changed? How come there is another surgery?" Gong Zhenyu asked in confusion.

Huo Xixi frowned slightly. She had a bad feeling, but she quickly denied her guess. Her sister shouldn't be that stupid.

"I have something to do too. I can't cut the cake with you."

"No way, you promised me." Gong Zhenyu's face fell.

"I really have something to do. How about this, when you take office as President of Baili, I will go to congratulate you, okay?"

"Okay then, don't lie to me." Gong Zhenyu considerately sent Huo Xixi to the door and watched her leave.

Du Yiyi saw Huo Xixi leaving, and hurried over to ask Gong Zhenyu, "Why did Xixi leave? Did you make her unhappy?"

"Mom, I didn't. I couldn't even coax her into submission, so how could I dare to make her angry?" Gong Zhenyu said aggrievedly.

"I'm telling you, brat. Don't hang out with your bunch of bad friends anymore. Otherwise, if you let my good wife run away, I won't forgive you."

"Mom, I get it. There are so many people here. Please give me some face and don't speak so loudly."

Du Yiyi then realized that her voice was a little loud, and she quickly apologized to Gong Zhenyu.

In any case, my son has grown up and will soon take over the company, so I can no longer talk to him like I did when he was a child.

Huo Xixi chased Huo Nuannuan out, but didn't see even a single figure.

A speakeasy in Manhattan.

Lin Manyi was kneeling on the ground learning how to pour wine for the guests when Wu Kai's men came over.

"How are you doing? You'll start working tonight. If you perform well, you can earn more tips." The subordinate said, and then he did not forget to warn Lin Manyi, "Don't think about running away, otherwise your family will suffer."

Lin Manyi stood up, pushed open the door, and saw Wu Kai standing outside.

Wu Kai looked at the suspender skirt she was wearing, his eyes narrowed coldly, "This dress doesn't suit you, go change it."
