Huo Licheng nodded in agreement, immersed in the joy of reuniting with Jiang Shan. Cheng Cheng looked particularly happy tonight, completely unaware of the flash of expression on Huo Licheng's face.
Sunday's dance was organized by the X city government. Basically, all the prominent people in X city came. Everyone was in pairs and no one was single, with the exception of Huo Licheng.
Huo Yu was wearing a long black gauze dress and walked to Huo Licheng with elegant steps: "Where is Cheng Cheng? Why didn't she come with you? Aren't you afraid that you will be entangled in wild flowers here?"
Huo Licheng smiled lightly: "She doesn't want to come."
Huo Yu was extremely perceptive, and she clearly caught the flash of irritability in Huo Licheng's eyes: "What? Did you quarrel?"
When Master Huo heard this, he gave her an extremely contemptuous look: "Quarrel? Do you think I would do such a childish thing?"
"It's good that there's no quarrel. Cheng Cheng is a simple girl, but she's very open-minded about many things. I heard Yi Yi say that Cheng Cheng's opinions on your marriage and having children shocked Yi Yi."
There were many people at the dance, but Huo Yu and Huo Licheng stood in an inconspicuous corner. Of course, they thought they were inconspicuous.
Wherever these two people stand, they are the focus. Of course, countless pairs of eyes are looking at them, just looking at the way the eldest lady and the eldest young master of the Huo family are talking, no one dares to come close.
Of course, no one could hear what Huo Yu and Huo Licheng said.
"marry?"
This word made Huo Licheng feel strange for a moment. Huo Yu took a sip of the red wine in the glass and smiled calmly: "Yeah."
"What did she say?"
"Cheng Cheng means that marriage is different from love. She feels that you two don't understand each other well enough. She doesn't want your feelings for each other to be lost to the trivial matters in life. To be honest, I said this in a magazine article before. I have seen similar ones in my submissions, but they were written by a woman who was almost fifty years old about her life experience, so when I heard them being said one by one, I was stunned. Cheng Cheng is simple, but not simple."
After Huo Yu finished speaking, he quickly added: "This is definitely a compliment."
The smile on Huo Licheng's lips deepened. Of course it had to be a compliment. How could he be wrong about the woman he fell in love with
But... that little girl actually felt that they didn't understand each other well enough. Could it be that he took pity on her body a few days ago and didn't satisfy her properly? It seems that we need to have a thorough understanding tonight.
The lights were bright in the ball hall. On the other side, several women in gorgeous clothes stood together. Even though their faces had exquisite makeup, it was not difficult to tell that they were women over forty years old at least.
"Have you heard? Mr. Huo has a girlfriend."
"I heard about it, but I don't know the person."
"Well, I think of all the wealthy families who gave birth to daughters in X City, who didn't want to marry their daughter into the Huo family? None of them did so, and I don't know which family's girl Master Huo fell in love with? Which family's girl is so lucky?"
"What do you know? My daughter-in-law has a classmate who works in Huo City. From what she said, she is not a wealthy lady, but Master Huo's secretary. She climbed into Master Huo's bed by some means."
As soon as these words came out, the gossips around him gasped: "What? Secretary? How could that happen?"
"Is that correct? What kind of background can a little secretary have?"
