Chi Muzhen shook her head, "I went directly to get the beads after get off work. Mr. Huo may still be working overtime."
Hearing this, Mrs. Huo's eyes flashed with disappointment. She originally thought that during the time when Huo Yunting was involved in the car accident, the relationship between the two would be restored after living together, but now it seems that it should be the same as before, with no progress.
"I have to work overtime on my birthday. You must talk to him well when he comes over!"
Chi Muzhen smiled and followed the old lady's words: "Okay!"
Chi Xuan on the side felt jealous and angry when she saw that Mrs. Huo was so kind to Chi Muzhen but extremely cold to herself.
If it weren't for the fact that Huo Yunting was brought up by Mrs. Huo and would only listen to Mrs. Huo's words, she wouldn't have to go out of her way to please this dead old woman!
"Xuanxuan...Xuanxuan...why did you suddenly stop talking?"
Cheng Shumin's voice brought Chi Xuan back to reality, and she quickly came back to look at him.
"Aunt Cheng, I'm sorry, I was a little distracted just now. Maybe I'm a little tired recently."
"You helped me prepare the old lady's birthday party recently. It's really hard on you. It would be great if Chi Muzhen was half as understanding as you."
Chi Xuan's hand tightened unconsciously, she didn't want to be considerate at all.
But if she didn't behave well, she might not even be qualified to sit here today.
Chi Xuan gave a shy smile and said slowly: "Aunt Cheng, I'm very happy to be able to help you. I always like getting along with you and can learn a lot."
Cheng Shumin nodded, "Don't worry, I can see all your hard work, and you are the only one I consider my daughter-in-law!"
Chi Xuan's face showed fear, "Aunt Cheng, don't say that. My sister and Brother Yunting are already married, and I don't dare to have any thoughts."
Cheng Shumin held her hand and whispered: "I will help you."
She leaned into Chi Xuan's ear and said a few words, and Chi Xuan's face immediately turned red.
Chi Muzhen walked around the banquet hall and felt bored so she went to the back garden, intending to go to the pavilion to spend some time alone.
As soon as I walked to the door of the back garden, I heard a discussion coming from inside.
"Old Mrs. Huo's birthday party tonight was really lively. It's a pity that Mr. Huo didn't come. Could it be that he was too disabled to come?"
"I think I'm also afraid of being laughed at. After all, the once proud man is now paralyzed and will never have the chance to stand up again. I guess it won't be long before the position of President Huo will have to be given to someone else."
"If I were him, I probably wouldn't be able to accept it and spend the rest of my life paralyzed. I'd rather jump into a river!"
Chi Muzhen frowned, walked in directly, and said coldly: "If you have the ability to speak in front of Huo Yunting, what's the point of hiding behind and talking!"
Sitting in the pavilion were several celebrities from Rongcheng. They had just returned from abroad not long ago, and Chi Muzhen was not familiar with them.
Several people did not expect that someone would come to the back garden. They were startled at first, and then they recognized Chi Muzhen, with contempt and ridicule in their eyes.
"I thought it was who it was! It turned out to be Miss Chi. We were all telling the truth. Did we say anything wrong?"
Chi Muzhen sneered, "Even if Huo Yunting can never stand up again, it won't be your turn to be here gibbering!"
"you!"
One of the women whose family had business dealings with the Chi family suddenly stood up and said disdainfully to Chi Muzhen: "Chi Muzhen, you'd better pretend you didn't hear anything, otherwise I will make my father cut off all ties with the Chi family when I go back." Cooperation!"
There was no warmth in Chi Muzhen's eyes. Just as she was about to speak, a cold voice sounded behind her.
"Miss Wang is so loud. Since the Wang family is so capable, there must be no need to cooperate with the Huo family. I almost forgot that there are also the Chen family and the Zhang family."
Seeing Huo Yunting suddenly appearing behind Chi Muzhen, the faces of several people suddenly turned pale.
If the family knew that they had offended Huo Yunting and the cooperation between the family company and the Huo family was broken, their legs would be broken.
"Huo...Mr. Huo...we didn't mean it...I'm sorry..."
"Mr. Huo, please forgive us this time...I promise I will never talk nonsense again..."
"Yes...I'm sorry...Mr. Huo..."
Several people looked scared, and the timid ones started crying.
However, Huo Yunting did not show any pity for her and said coldly: "Since you dare to speak, you must be able to bear the consequences!"
Chi Muzhen was also a little surprised when she saw Huo Yunting, "Mr. Huo, why did you come back?"
"When you left the living room."
"Oh."
So he followed him all the way to the back garden? !
Huo Yunting looked at her with a soft look in his eyes. He did not expect that Chi Muzhen would stand up to defend him, and an indescribable feeling surged in his heart.
"Have you gone to see grandma? She was still talking about you just now."
"not yet."
As soon as he returned to Heyuan, he saw her walking towards the back garden, and he followed her.
"Then I'll push you over. Have you prepared a birthday gift for grandma?"
"Ah."
Chi Muzhen pushed the wheelchair and said a few words to Huo Yunting from time to time. The atmosphere was quite relaxed.
As soon as he walked into the living room, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Although Huo Yunting had announced that he and Chi Muzhen were married last time at Mr. Chi's birthday party, everyone was still a little uncomfortable with it.
I didn't even hear that the two were dating, so why did they suddenly get married?
Chi Xuan stared at Chi Muzhen with hatred in her eyes. She should be the one standing behind Huo Yunting, but all of this was taken away by Chi Muzhen!
Arriving in front of Mrs. Huo, Huo Yunting handed over the birthday gift she had prepared.
"Grandma, happy birthday!"
Mrs. Huo glanced at him angrily, "You know today is my birthday, why do you come back so late!"
He was complaining, but when he accepted the gift, his face was still happy.
I saw a set of ice jade necklaces in the box, estimated to be worth tens of millions.
The old lady calmly closed the box and handed it to the housekeeper beside her.
"Zhen Zhen gave me the gift with a lot of heart."
Noticing that Mrs. Huo unconsciously touched the Buddhist beads on her wrist, a flash of shock flashed in Huo Yunting's eyes, but it was quickly covered by the indifference in her eyes.
"Is this her birthday gift to you?"
This string of Buddhist beads costs at least [-] million.
Mrs. Huo nodded, "Yes."
"It's pretty."
The few people had just chatted for a few words when Cheng Shumin came over with Chi Xuan.
"Mom, Xuanxuan also prepared a gift for you. She went to the temple to pray for a month for a peace charm."
Chi Xuan handed the peace talisman to Mrs. Huo, looking a little shy, "Grandma Huo, I heard that praying for peace in Jietai Temple is the most effective, so I went to pray for a month. I hope Grandma Huo can be safe and healthy and live a long life!"
Mrs. Huo took the peace charm from her hand calmly, nodded and said, "Thank you, Miss Chi, Shumin, please help me entertain Miss Chi."
Sensing Mrs. Huo's cold attitude towards her, Chi Xuan's expression froze and she unconsciously looked at Huo Yunting aside.
However, Huo Yunting didn't look at her, his eyes kept falling on Chi Muzhen.
