During dinner time, Huo Mingzheng sat as the head of the family, but because the people sitting next to him were all elders of the family, he did not show any airs and greeted everyone at the table.

"I almost forgot that A Zheng is turning thirty this year. How are you going to celebrate his birthday?"

The person who spoke was Huo Mingzheng's third uncle, the third master of the Huo family.

As soon as he said this, everyone at the table realized that Huo Minzheng's birthday was coming soon.

Huo Minzheng poured a glass of wine for his father, "I'm a grown man, what's the best way to celebrate my birthday?"

Mr. Huo picked up the wine glass and said, "Azheng doesn't like celebrating birthdays."

Cheng Weijin has the right to speak.

Huo Mingzheng has matured earlier than other children of the same age since he was a child. He is even different. Children, all children like to celebrate birthdays, receive gifts, and blow out birthday candles, but Huo Mingzheng doesn't like it.

When he was ten years old, she specially arranged a boy-themed birthday party for him and invited many of his peers. As a result, he had a bad face the whole time and didn't even have a smile on his face.

Afterward, she asked him why he was unhappy about celebrating his birthday, but he still had a bad look on his face, "I'm not a monkey. I feel embarrassed to be teased to blow out candles in public."

Cheng Weijin was stunned at that time. What kind of brain circuit is this?

Later she realized that her son was not face-saving, but shy, but the way he expressed his shyness was different from others. He used a bad face to cover up his embarrassment.

Later, when he grew up and his thoughts were hidden deeper, she could no longer tell what he looked like when he was shy.

Fourth Master Huo, who had offended Huo Mingzheng with his previous words, finally found a chance to talk to Huo Mingzheng.

He smiled and said: "Thirty is very important, how can you fail it? How about leaving the birthday party to me?"

Everyone at the table knew that he had displeased Huo Mingzheng before, and they all looked at Huo Mingzheng's face in unison. No matter how mediocre Mr. Huo is, he is also Huo Mingzheng's fourth uncle, so he will give him some face.

However, Huo Mingzheng turned a deaf ear and served Cheng Weijin some food, "Mom, try this."

Cheng Weijin picked it up and took a bite without changing her expression, frowning slightly, "Well, it's a bit fishy."

Huo Yuanshi took a sip of sake with a faint smile on his brows.

Fourth Master Huo's face was a little confused, but he also knew Huo Minzheng's temper, but Huo Jingshu said displeased: "Second brother, my dad is talking to you. He is your elder, you are too arrogant."

Du Xinrui tugged on Huo Jingshu's sleeves under the table. Huo Jingshu couldn't help but feel aggrieved and had nowhere to vent her feelings.

She cried: "You just look down on our fourth brother. You don't take my father seriously, let alone your sister. You said that Fu Yan is better than me in every aspect. I think you are seduced by Fu Yan." , have you fallen in love with her a long time ago, and that’s why you’re raising a fifth house!”

As soon as these words came out, the restaurant could hear the needle drop.

Everyone looked at Huo Mingzheng's face, including Cheng Weijin and Mr. Huo.

The former looked like he was watching the excitement, while the latter looked calm.

Mr. Huo frowned, "Jingshu, what are you talking about? No matter what Fu Yan says, your fifth uncle still lives in the same room. She and A Zheng are cousins, how can it be like what you said!"

Huo Jingshu said while shedding tears: "I am his cousin, but he protects Fu Yan everywhere. Don't think that I can't see anything. He expelled me from the Huo family just to give Fu Yan a sigh of relief. "

After Huo Mingzheng finished serving Cheng Weijin, he glanced at Huo Jingshu at the next table with cold eyes, "Because of your mistakes in the contract, Huo lost [-] million. You were late for work and absent from work for no reason. You have made countless mistakes, but you still have the nerve to stand up to me." I feel wronged in front of me.”

"But you're right about one thing."

Huo Mingzheng paused and rubbed his fingers on the rim of the wine glass, "I like her."

Someone on the table took a breath.

In the silence of death, Huo Minzheng calmly poured wine for his father, "Dad."

Mr. Huo was stunned for a moment, but he didn't have any special reaction. He looked at the wine glass in front of him and sighed in his heart. He had no choice but to drink this wine.

He picked up the wine glass, drank it down in one gulp, glanced at the people at the two tables, and cleared his throat, "Let's all eat, it's such a big deal."

"No, second brother, Azheng..." Mr. Huo's face turned green, not only because he was slapped in the face by Huo Mingzheng in public, but also because he was shocked, "He and Fu Yan, they are... you don't care about them anyway. .”

Mr. Huo pinched his brows and said, "He is not only my son, he is also the head of the family. Can I take care of his affairs? Why don't you, third brother, take care of it for me?"

Mr. Huo took a deep breath, how dare he care!

The dinner ended in silence. Huo Jingshu still wanted to make a noise, but was taken back to the Villa by Du Xinrui and Mr. Huo. The others, without Mrs. Huo to support them, did not dare to question Huo Mingzheng in public.

Huo Minzheng was standing on the porch smoking. It would indeed be his birthday soon.

But he really didn't like celebrating birthdays. Birthdays were always like that, with nothing new every year. Except for the two years he spent with Fu Yan, it was the most enjoyable birthday he had had in thirty years.

The taste is not limited to the dark dishes she cooks, but also the birthday surprises she gives.

Fu Yan was a conservative girl at heart, but in order to please him and make him happy, she treated herself as a gift. That night, he unwrapped the 'gifts' one by one, and almost died on her in the end.

But he was preconceived and thought that her flattery was for Wufang to gain a better foothold in the Huo family, because Wufang's situation was not good at that time.

Huo Mingzheng took a long puff of cigarette, but he couldn't suppress the sourness in his heart.

He put out his cigarette and walked back when he heard someone talking on the phone in the side hall.

He walked over with long legs, leaned against the door, and hung up the phone while looking at Huo Yuan.

The corners of his lips curled up slightly, "I didn't expect my eldest brother to speak French so well."

Huo Yuanshi handed the phone to Aji and looked at Huo Mingzheng with soft eyes, "I started a small business outside and had to learn some foreign languages. I can get a compliment from you, Azheng. It seems that I learned well."

"My eldest brother went to England, but he did business in a French-speaking area. It doesn't seem to be a small business."

There was a trace of helplessness in Huo Yuanshi's smile, "It is inevitable that there are many places where money is needed, and I also want to make a living. I can't always use the Huo family's money. If I have to transfer money from your personal account, I will feel bad. "

Huo Minzheng sneered coldly, "Brother's face is a bit too big. I gave the fifth room money because I like Yan Yan."

Huo Yuanshi looked at him for a while with a half-smile.

He raised his hand and Aji pushed the wheelchair.

When passing by Huo Mingzheng, he said meaningfully: "I never thought you would admit it in public, Zheng, you impress me."
