Sister-in-law of crossing
Chapter 18 Wife Selection Conference Day 1
Song Boya knocked on the door of the study, waited for permission and then opened the door to enter.
Behind the huge red sandalwood desk, Huo Zichen was working. His serious and upright face was not as soft as when he got along with others in private, but it had a distinctive charm.
The study room in the Banshan villa only belongs to the head of the Huo family.However, Huo Zichen's father was a romantic artist who hated business, so he was the only son.In order to keep the position of the patriarch and the status of the direct branch, Huo Zichen was established as the heir by Mr. Huo at the age of 16. In order to improve Huo Zichen's status, Mr. Huo took the initiative to give up his study to this eldest grandson.
"What's the matter?" Huo Zichen raised his head and smiled gently at Song Boya.
"...Are you really not coming to see it?" Song Boya hesitated for a while and asked cautiously.
Today is the day to choose a wife for Huo Zichen.No matter how ridiculous other people think, the Huo family treats it as a major event and spends a lot of manpower and material resources, striving to achieve perfection.There are 16 judges for the conference alone, consisting of members of the Huo family, elites of the Huo family, psychologists, behavioral experts, etc. They must choose a perfect new mistress for the Huo family.Even Huo Zichen's six assistants sent out a man and a woman. The woman became a staff member, and the man was one of the sixteen judges, serving as Huo Zichen's eyes and ears.
After doing such a solemn matter, the result will naturally be no joke.The winning candidate will hold an engagement ceremony with Huo Zichen on the spot, establishing his position as the future mistress of the Huo family.For this wife selection meeting, Mr. Huo specially asked Huo Zichen to come to the villa in the middle of the mountain to watch it up close.Huo Zichen came here, and brought all the remaining assistants, but when he arrived, he locked himself in his study to work, as if he had no interest in the wife selection meeting.
As the heir of the Huo family, with a high position and authority, he dragged his sickly body and dedicated himself for many years. Now even the marriage is completed in this semi-forced way. Song Boya would not feel good.
But now, instead of blindly refusing, it is better to hold the eye in person and pick a good one to look at.
"Today is only the first day." Huo Zichen declined politely, as if what was going on downstairs had nothing to do with him.
"I saw Master Yuan Che." Song Boya said.The relationship between Huo Zichen and Yuan Che has always been good, and Yuan Che has never concealed his appreciation for Huo Zichen.This time Yuan Che came to participate in the conference, but he came for victory.According to him, regardless of family background or character, Yuan Che is indeed impeccable and has a great chance of winning.A woman like Lian Mina, who was a bit cautious about Huo Zichen, sneaked up to the venue and saw Yuan Che, and immediately became Yuan Che's fan after she came back, supporting him in winning.But he watched with cold eyes, Huo Zichen always lacked something for Yuan Che, if he really wanted to be together, they would have been together long ago.
"Well, I see, let him go." Huo Zichen said indifferently.He had read the profiles of all the candidates and knew who would participate in this so-called wife selection meeting.He originally had other plans for Yuan Che, but now...
So perfunctory.Song Boya is gone.Why is it that the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuchs are in a hurry?Several of their assistants stared at the monitoring room without turning their eyes.Everyone cared about Huo Zichen.
"... If you are really not willing, we will support you." Finally, Song Boya said in a low voice.They were completely on Huo Zichen's side.
They are all members of the Huo family, and Huo Zichen's title is only "Chief Executive" rather than "President". Song Boya took a risk to say such a sentence, but Huo Zichen deserves the best.
"Thank you, Boya." Huo Zichen said gently, "Don't worry, I know it well."
Song Boya didn't talk anymore, and if he talked too much, it would be long-winded, as long as Huo Zichen took care of it.He decided to go back and keep watching, paying more attention to those candidates for Huo Zichen.
Huo Zichen watched Song Boya's back disappear at the door, pondered for a while, and slowly put down the document in his hand.He moved the mouse, entered the password, and the computer screen switched to the banquet hall in a second.
All kinds of cameras record the scene of the banquet hall from different angles and divide it into different windows on the screen.
Huo Zichen distinguished the faces of the candidates.He saw Yuan Che, perhaps because of the "big hit" relationship, his lens was magnified, and the image was particularly clear.Huo Zichen shook his head and laughed, and continued to watch.
Then he found Ye Xiu in a relatively cold corner.A young man who seemed to have a good personality was talking to him, but Ye Xiu's face was barely engraved with "I'm impatient and want to tear this noisy person to pieces".
What a bad temper...
Huo Zichen tapped on the table with one finger, and subconsciously touched the obsidian earring on his left ear with the other hand.The earrings were repeatedly taken off, put on, taken off again, and put on again. Finally, he didn't want to bother, and put them on. Anyway, the quality is good, and it's not ugly. It's blocked by hair, and no one usually pays attention to it. arrive……
He looked at Ye Xiu's clothes, and was a little surprised but not too surprised to find that they fit well.Ye Xiu's aura was able to hold down his clothes, which made him more handsome and handsome.
……not bad.
*********************************
Zhao Yongchuan stood in front of Ye Xiu and shut his mouth tightly, fearing that what he said would make him violent.
In fact, he was overthinking, Ye Xiu's anger surged only for a moment, and he quickly forgot what he said just now, put on the sunglasses again, and his eyes were slightly empty.The Huo Zichen that Ye Xiu knew had a cunning side like a fox, but his real character was upright and serious.He won't provoke him after he has someone he likes.Compared to some long-tongued people (Zhao Yongchuan:==) who gossip about their tongues, Ye Xiu believes in his own judgment more.
After Yuan Che came in, the door of the banquet hall was quickly closed, and after a while, all the lights went out, and the only thing that was lit was the stage.
A middle-aged man who smiled like a Maitreya Buddha walked slowly onto the stage with a belly as if he was five months pregnant. He was unexpectedly not ugly, and he looked kind and kind.Holding the microphone, he spoke in a deep and sonorous voice: "My surname is Huo, and Tuo Da calls himself Uncle Dong. On behalf of the Huo family, I would like to welcome the young masters of all families, who are also excellent candidates for our conference!"
There was a round of applause from the audience.
Uncle Dong thanked him a few times with a smile, and began to introduce the history of the Huo family, and then the young master Huo Zichen as the heir of the Huo family, and the importance of his partner to the Huo family.In addition to status, the importance of this also includes the influence of the partner on the Huo family and the power he can control.
Many candidates who have a deep understanding of the strength of the Huo family are drooling and salivating.Even if he believed in his heart that he was going through the motions and would never be selected, he was a little excited by what he said.
"...Please be sure to go all out for all the tests, our judges will rate you fairly and impartially." Uncle Dong said solemnly, "The Huo family has only one reminder for everyone—please remember your identities , I'm worthy of my identity, please remember that this is the Huo family!" Every word was spoken loudly!
As soon as these words came out, the audience fell silent.Everyone can feel a sudden solemnity.Some people disapproved in their hearts and subconsciously put away their small thoughts.
Putting aside his words, Uncle Dong looked around the stage for a week, and returned to his original smile: "It seems that all the candidates understand me, very good. I don't want to waste time, the conference will start soon, and in the Before the official start of the conference, all candidates are requested to sign a contract with us before deciding whether to participate in the next session."
contract?
The candidates looked at each other.Most of these people are descendants of celebrities and rich people, and they are naturally wary of the word "contract".
To participate in a wife selection meeting and sign a contract?What contract?
The lights in the banquet hall were turned on, and the waiters shuttled among the candidates, handing them a contract specification and a signature pen.
The contract is primarily about the personal safety of the candidate.The Huo family will try their best to ensure the safety of the candidates during the selection process, but if an accident occurs, the insurance company will send professionals to appraise the situation, and will be responsible for compensating the candidates for their losses, so as to prevent anyone from taking the opportunity to rely on the Huo family or complain to the Huo family. Open your mouth wide.
The Huo family thought very carefully.For candidates, the contract is not so difficult to accept.After all, this contract is just in case.They have made good mental preparations before participating in the conference, and they will not easily shrink back because of this little obstacle.
Ye Xiu felt intuitively that it was not that simple.But he read the contract at a glance and signed it without hesitation.He wondered what would happen, endanger his personal safety.
The waiter took back the contract, and no one on the scene quit.
Uncle Dong got the result, and smiled with satisfaction: "Good job everyone! Now I announce: the conference has officially started!"
The lights in the banquet hall were dimmed.Uncle Dong stepped down, and he was replaced by a beautiful woman in a tight-fitting cheongsam, tall and sexy, with a graceful voice like an oriole coming out of the valley.She calls herself Holly and is the host of the first level.
"Now, all candidates are invited to come to the stage to draw lots. Those who draw the same lot, please stand together and be members of the same group."
The so-called lottery is a small square piece of cardboard half the size of a palm, with different English letters printed on the cardboard.The one hundred candidates present were divided into 25 groups of four.
Because of Uncle Dong's words first, the candidates' cooperation was quite high.They took the cardboard and formed their own teams, standing in small groups one by one.Ye Xiu's group was K group, and the other three people in the same group, one was silent and capable, with a strong figure, one was proud and evil, tall and thin, and the other had a round face and a medium build, none of them looked like simple people.
The proud and evil one turned to the silent and competent Nuzui, and said hypocritically: "Oh, Wei Shao, I didn't expect that we would be in the same group!"
Known as Wei Shao, he quietly glanced at him and didn't answer.
The proud and wicked one seems to have decided on him to provoke: "I don't know which one of us can advance to the next level? If you lose, the wishful thinking of the Wei family will come to naught..." He laughed nervously as he spoke.
The two knew each other at first glance, and there was a knot in the middle.The arrogant and evil obviously disliked Shao Wei, and Wei Shao tolerated him for unknown reasons.
The remaining one was so smooth that he couldn't get in the way. He glanced at Ye Xiu and seemed to think that he was even more difficult to speak, so he simply shut up and listened to what the host Huo Li said.
The lights in the banquet hall dimmed little by little, and Holly said sweetly: "Candidates, please pay attention. When the lights are on again, only one candidate in each group can stand. This candidate will directly advance to the next level... ..."
Behind the huge red sandalwood desk, Huo Zichen was working. His serious and upright face was not as soft as when he got along with others in private, but it had a distinctive charm.
The study room in the Banshan villa only belongs to the head of the Huo family.However, Huo Zichen's father was a romantic artist who hated business, so he was the only son.In order to keep the position of the patriarch and the status of the direct branch, Huo Zichen was established as the heir by Mr. Huo at the age of 16.
