C12 To be Played for the Rest
The Huo family's status in Jinghai City was extraordinary. Although Huo Chengzhou was not favoured, he still used the Huo family as a cover, and the Qiao family was not close to the Huo family's Huo Jingzhou.
Therefore, even if it was Huo Chengzhou, the Qiao family could not afford to offend him.
Qiao Minghui's face changed into a flattering expression. "Young Master Huo, actually Qiao An has agreed to marry into the Huo family. This child is cute and clever. Although we can't see her for the time being, we have already made an appointment for her to operate on the cornea. I believe that she will be able to see the light again very soon. "
He paused for a moment and said, "Besides, Xue Er is indeed dating the second young master of Moo family, Moo Haoyan. Moo family also mentioned that they will be getting engaged soon. After all, the Huo family and the Moo family are both aristocrats of wealthy families. Why would they hurt their relationship over such a small matter? So, Young Master Huo, what do you think... "
Huo Chengzhou cast a cold glance at him." Are you threatening me? "
Qiao Minghui was shocked and quickly said, "I dare not, I dare not."
Huo Chengzhou was still angry. Qiao Minghui knew better than anyone that the reason was because Qiao An's injury seemed to have hit his face. So the key to this matter was Qiao An.
Thinking of this, Qiao Minghui shifted his gaze to Qiao An and said gently, "Qiao An, say something. This is related to your marriage."
Qiao An, who was suddenly called, instantly understood what Qiao Minghui meant.
If she did not say anything at this moment, it was likely that she would not return the things left behind by her biological parents to her.
Qiao An raised her chin and tilted her head in Huo Chengzhou's direction. In a gentle tone, she said word by word, "Could it be that Young Master Huo wants a woman whom Moo Haoyan had played with before?"
Hearing this, Qiao Xue suddenly raised her head but her arm was tightly grabbed by Zhou Yun. She could only clench her teeth and swallow her words of scolding.
Huo Chengzhou raised his eyebrows slightly and the corner of his mouth curled up slightly. He seemed to be very satisfied with Qiao An's current attitude. His palm landed on her head and lightly patted it. "Worthy of being my, Huo Chengzhou's, woman. You understand me."
Qiao An was stunned and her mind turned a thousand times before she heard the man's somewhat gentle voice. "Since that is the case, how can you still be bullied by others?"
He seemed to have no choice but to shake his head. "Next time you encounter this kind of situation, you have to fight back in time. Do you understand?"
Qiao An nodded and said softly, "I understand."
The interaction between the two of them, no matter how slow they were, the father and daughter of Qiao family could understand it. It seemed that Huo Chengzhou was deliberately putting on an act to stand up for Qiao An this time.
Their faces turned red and white for a while. In the end, it was Qiao Minghui who opened his mouth. "Although Qiao An is not the biological daughter of Qiao Minghui, ever since she came to Qiao family, all of us have treated her as the little princess of Qiao family. Even the maids called her young lady. Why would anyone bully her? "
Qiao Minghui looked at Qiao An and said, "It must have been a misunderstanding just now, right? Qiao An?"
Qiao An only smiled slightly and did not say whether she was right or not.
The eldest daughter of Qiao family? Huh, the only time she enjoyed the status of the eldest daughter of the Qiao family was her 18th birthday. The coming of age gift from the Qiao family was for her to leave the family.
At this time, Qiao Xue suddenly sneered, "Young Master Huo, you still don't know, right? Last night Qiao An stayed with another man. Isn't she the one who was played?"
