After the scumbag cheated on me, I turned around and married the heir to a wealthy family.
Chapter 124: Just an invitation
Zhu Chen's words caused the situation at the dinner table to fall into silence.
Zhu Jin and Huo Jingcheng didn't say anything, and Zhu Chen's smile was a little awkward.
"Jinjin." Gao Weilan said with a smile.
"Your dad is also doing it for your own good. After all, you and Yuanyuan are sisters. She has a good life, so she can naturally help you."
The words of persuasion come and go, but there are only a few or two sentences.
The left is just for your own good, the right is just to help each other.
It's a pity that Zhu Jin didn't believe a word of these words.
In the final analysis, Zhu Chen and the three of them just wanted to pave the way for Zhu Yuan through themselves.
As expected, he went to the Three Treasures Hall for no reason, and Zhu Chen and others had already planned to invite him home for dinner.
"I'll have Assistant Chen deliver the invitation in two days." Huo Jingcheng said calmly, "Don't bother Jin Jin with this little thing."
"As for matters within the group." Huo Jingcheng glanced at Zhu Yuan, "I think that if some people have the ability to join the group, they will have the ability to stay. If not, they deserve to be fired."
Zhu Yuan's face turned pale, her head lowered, and her fingers tightly clenched the corners of her clothes.
Zhu Chen could only smooth things over with a smile, "Yes, yes, the second master is right. In this workplace, everyone should work hard."
After a while, Huo Jingcheng and Zhu Jin left together.
Zhu Chen and the other three put them in the car before turning back to the house.
Zhu Yuan stamped her feet, "Dad, look at Zhu Jin. She doesn't take our family seriously at all now."
Zhu Chen frowned.
Gao Weilan patted the back of Zhu Yuan's hand and shook his head to signal her not to continue talking.
"It's okay. Anyway, just get the invitation." Gao Weilan said, "You should dress up well and try to attract the attention of the young master of the Shen family at the banquet."
Zhu Yuan snorted, twisted her waist and went back to the house.
Gao Weilan couldn't tell what Zhu Chen was thinking, so she could only say vaguely, "Jin Jin has just married into the Huo family, so it may be difficult to interfere in many things. I think the second master does care about her."
Zhu Chen's expression softened slightly and he hummed lightly.
"I got the invitation, plan everything you want to do in advance, and don't make everything mess up again when the time comes."
"Next time what you want, go and tell her yourself."
After leaving these words, Zhu Chen went directly upstairs.
But Gao Weilan's face looked a bit ugly.
You know, she has never received such cold treatment since she married into the Zhu family.
In the car.
Zhu Jin couldn't help but say, "You shouldn't have given the invitation to them."
Although she knew that the invitation was nothing to Huo Jingcheng, she didn't want the Zhu family to get any benefit from her.
"Don't worry." Huo Jingcheng took Zhu Jin's hand and squeezed it lightly, "It's just an invitation."
"You will feed their appetite." Zhu Jin couldn't help but said.
Huo Jingcheng raised his eyebrows, "They only have this chance."
Zhu Jin frowned and looked in confusion.
Huo Jingcheng explained, "You will know when you come to the banquet with me."
"The invitation is given, but they must be able to hold it."
"This……"
Huo Jingcheng interrupted Zhu Jin's random thoughts.
"Don't think about it. Get off the car and eat." Huo Jingcheng said.
Zhu Jin was stunned.
Didn't they just come out from Zhu's house after dinner?
Huo Jingcheng was like a roundworm in her stomach, knowing her doubts without her having to ask.
"There aren't many dishes at Zhu's that you like to eat." Huo Jingcheng said, "I haven't seen you use chopsticks a few times. I guess you asked Assistant Chen to reserve the dishes in this restaurant in advance when you were still hungry. "
Zhu Jin didn't expect that Huo Jingcheng would notice this.
There were really few dishes on the table that she liked. Coupled with the calculations of Zhu Chen and others, she found the food difficult to swallow, so she only moved her chopsticks a few times and then stopped moving.
She thought Huo Jingcheng was only talking to Zhu Chen and didn't notice the situation on her side.
I never expected that the other party would notice and take it to heart.
Zhu Jin felt warmth suddenly rise in his heart, and the corners of his mouth could not help but raise, "Okay."
When the two of them arrived at the private room, the food had already been brought to the table. The table was full, steaming hot and fragrant.
Zhu Jin looked around and saw that the dishes on the dinner table were all his favorites.
Zhu Jin squeezed the chopsticks tightly.
Huo Jingcheng saw that she still didn't take off her chopsticks and asked, "What's wrong? Don't you want to eat these today?"
"You...remember what I like to eat?" Zhu Jin asked.
Huo Jingcheng raised his eyebrows and said in a calm and natural tone, "You are my wife, isn't it normal for me to remember these?"
He spoke seriously and normally, as if what he was doing was nothing important.
But, this is indeed the first time someone has remembered what they like to eat.
Those people in the Zhu family don't care at all about what they like to eat.
"Uncomfortable?" Huo Jingcheng asked.
Zhu Jin shook his head, "No. Let's eat. Go back early after eating. I have to rearrange my working hours."
"what happened?"
Zhu Jin sighed.
She didn't want to say it originally. She didn't want the other party to help her in everything.
But for some reason, at this moment, she was filled with grievances and couldn't help but talk about it.
"There is a problem at the workshop, and they are not willing to take orders." Zhu Jin frowned.
The man's cold fingers gently covered her frown, helping to smooth her brows away.
"Why? The process is too difficult?"
Zhu Jin shook his head and told the truth about Huo Anan's deliberate intimidation and inducement of the craftsmen so that they refused to help.
"So, now I don't have any craftsmen who can cooperate and help. Whether it's the Jian family's order or a gift for grandpa, I have to do it myself."
Huo Jingcheng's cool fingertips gently touched her forehead.
"Well, let's eat first. We'll talk about other things after eating."
Zhu Jin didn't expect that it would be solved by speaking out.
I just managed to channel the pent-up energy in my heart through narration.
She didn't notice Huo Jingcheng's fingers tapping the screen of her phone while she was eating.
Xu Shi said everything on his mind, and Zhu Jin felt like his index finger was moving and he was a little stuffed.
"Let's take a walk?" Zhu Jin suggested.
"Yeah." Huo Jingcheng agreed.
Assistant Chen's mouth twitched as he stood aside.
Did the Second Master forget that he still has a lot of documents that he needs to answer tomorrow that he has not yet processed.
After this stroll, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening when the two of them took the car home.
Zhu Jin and Huo Jingcheng were busy with work in their respective studies.
That night, when Zhu Jin went back to his room to sleep after finishing his work, Huo Jingcheng showed no sign of rest.
What she didn't know was that the man didn't return to the bedroom from the study until midnight.
After washing, he held the sleeping Zhu Jin in his arms.
The familiar atmosphere and sense of security also made Zhu Jin subconsciously open his arms and hug Huo Jingcheng tightly.
The two people hugging each other lay on the large bed, and the cunning moonlight shone into the house from the window, wrapping them both in it, as if coating them with a light white halo.
