Chapter 459: Only Mouth Moved

Huo Shengyuan would rather state his conditions than offer her a sincere apology or comfort. He didn’t even bother to brush her off, which made Mu Qingya feel extremely sad. She was the daughter of the Mu Family. She could have had many choices, but she was blind and chose Huo Shengyuan.
Hence, she pushed Huo Shengyuan away with all her might and shouted, “I, Mu Qingya, don’t lack your perfunctory conditions. Goodbye, Huo Chengyuan.”
Mu Qingya quickly pushed open the car door and returned to her white car.
Then, she drove away from Huo Shengyuan with her best driving skills. Mu Qingya didn’t know what was wrong with her. Perhaps it was because of the consecutive blows she had suffered in the past two days that she felt a sense of disparity. Or perhaps it was because she knew that Huo Shengyuan would lose face at today’s birthday banquet and was unwilling to face it together with him. No matter what, she had escaped from Deer Pavilion.
HUO snengyuan cilan•t cnase arter ner. ‘Ine conditions ne coma orrer were already the upper limit of his ability to coax women. Mu Qingya was already married to him, so she could only follow his footsteps. He didn’t understand why the usually rational Mu Qingya would suddenly start talking about feelings with him.
Husband and wife had different thoughts, so of course, they would go against each other.
In the end, Huo Shengyuan had no choice but to call Yun Shujing. “Qingya went home. Mom, I can’t handle Deer Pavilion alone. You have to come and help.”
Yun Shujing was shocked when she heard that Mu Qingya had returned home. Isn’t today the birthday banquet of the noble?”
“I can’t explain it clearly in a few words. We’ll talk when you come.” Huo
Shengyuan hung up the phone. Then, he returned to the Xu family alone.
At this time, guests from various major families arrived one after another. There were rich and famous socialites, dignitaries, and any unremarkable old man could be a hermit who had won a lifetime achievement award.
Huo Shengyuan shuttled back and forth and soon returned to Huo Qingxiao’s side.
Huo Qingxiao turned around and looked at him. Seeing that there was no one around him, he immediately asked, “Did you manage to coax her back?”
‘Qingya is indeed not feeling well. I told her to go home and rest.” Huo Shengyuan replied stubbornly. He would never expose any shortcomings in front of others. “I’ve already called Mom and asked her to go to Deer Pavilion. I need her.”
Huo Qingxiao knew what Huo Shengyuan meant by “I need her.” He didn’t show any displeasure. He still maintained his fatherly expression and said,
“You still have to handle the relationship between husband and wife. After all, Qingya is very important to you.”
Huo Qingxiao reminded Huo Shengyuan, but he had already listed Mu Qingya, who was not completely loyal to him, as a defective product. A defective product should quietly give everything she had to him because if he was too kind, some people would not want to be treated with respect.
Not far away, Huo Jiuxiao walked through the crowd and looked at Huo Shengyuan with a meaningful expression. It seemed that Mu Qingya’s tragic journey was about to begin again. What Mu Qingya didn’t know was that Huo Shengyuan already treated her as his wife, which was already a huge recognition and tolerance for her. Therefore, she should be like a flower vase and put it wherever Huo Shengyuan wanted. If the flower vase had its own thoughts, there would only be one outcome. With a bang, the pieces would fall to the ground…
There were a lot of guests today, and Huo Shengyuan had created some gossip for his big brother, so there were a few guests. From time to time, they would look at Huo Jiuxiao. Some were scrutinizing, some were sympathetic, some were mocking, and there were countless others.
He was a new face, and a very good-looking new face. In the crowd, he was a dazzling existence that could not be ignored. Although many people mocked him for being deaf, no one could find any flaws in his face.
Lin Wanli, who was beside him, was wearing a red velvet dress. Other than a silver tassel hairpin on her head, she did not have any accessories. However, with such simple decorations, she landed beside Huo Jiuxiao, like a rose in his hand that he carefully cared for.
One was tall and the other was red. It was impossible to ignore them. These two people were clearly so ordinary in the eyes of others, and even had flaws.
“It’s such a pity that the Huo Family’s child has such a handsome face. It would be good if he was only deaf in one ear.”
“It’s because he’s deaf that it’s awkward. The Huo family still has to raise this piece of trash.”
“In the end, Huo Shengyuan is still magnanimous. He actually allowed a cripple like him to come to this occasion…”
At the entrance of the banquet hall, the juniors of some unknown families were gathered together to discuss Huo Jiuxiao. At this moment, an old man in a gray suit walked past the Xu family’s door with his son. However, his gaze was not on Xu Chonglou. Instead, he looked at the juniors who were maliciously slandering others behind their backs.
The expressions of the three juniors instantly changed.
His body couldn’t help but tremble.
Because the person in front of him was Lu…Family! The old director of the National Security Bureau! Didn’t this person dislike interacting with the Xu family? Why did he come personally to congratulate him this time?
Elder Xu noticed the commotion and quickly walked over. His expression was also surprised.
“Old Lu, you’re here.”
“I’m here, but as soon as I arrived, I heard a few insensible things talking obscenely. Guess what they said just now? Who told you that Huo Jiuxiao is trash?” Old Master Lu seemed unwilling to give up and wanted to pester this matter today.
At this moment, the young men shook their heads like rattles.
“A bunch of useless things who bring their eyes out. He recovered the national treasure for the country at the age of 18 and started fishing for people overseas at the age of 20. Foreign mercenaries call Huo Jiuxiao grandpa when they see him. The bullets he shoots out are more than the rice you’ve eaten. How can you say such things?” Old Master Lu reprimanded them loudly. “So what if he’s deaf? If you can do this even if you are deaf, wouldn’t it make you, the children of wealthy families, look even more useless? You can only move your mouth from head to toe, and you’re still embarrassing me.”
The few of them were reprimanded in public and lost all their face. They wished they could find a hole to hide in.
“If it weren’t for Huo Jiuxiao, I wouldn’t even be here today.”

This Elder Lu had always disliked those cynical bastards. They didn’t have much hair, but when they played tricks, they were endless and wouldn’t stop until one of them died.
Coincidentally, these people bumped into his gun and immediately vented their anger.
“I say, old birthday boy, today is your home ground. Why did I hear people talking about Jiuxiao the moment I entered? Did someone arrange this?” Elder Lu continued to seek justice for Huo Jiuxiao.
“Old thing, you really don’t give any face at all. You didn’t give any face to the juniors.” Elder Xu said with a smile.
“I can’t stand this kind of stinky thing who doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. I want to acknowledge Jiuxiao as my godson, but this person didn’t even agree. He would care about being a member of the Huo Family?” Elder Lu’s words were already very obvious..
