Ten minutes later, a black Bentley slowly stopped in front of the hotel.
The driver went and opened the door.
Coming out of the passenger seat was Father Bai with a gloomy face.He also deliberately changed into a gray tunic suit, which looked very formal.
Sitting in the back seat is Yang Suping's mother and daughter.
Bai Zhenzhen was taken aback when he saw that Bai Mengru was following him.
Huo Xiang chuckled lightly, and said in a voice that only Bai Zhenzhen could hear: "You sister is not easy."
Bai Zhenzhen smiled back.
Yes, it's really not easy.
Look at her dress today, a new goose yellow lace dress, the skirt is less than the knee, and it is a compact and slim design, which shows her figure and complexion.Coupled with the exquisite makeup on her face, I don't know, I thought she was the protagonist today, and the family came to introduce her to the blind date.
Huo Xiang glanced at Bai Zhenzhen again, and asked in a low voice, "Eh, anyway, you also came to see your parents, so why don't you learn from your sister? How much do you dress up?"
Bai Zhenzhen's lips curled up: "I'm already naturally beautiful, how can I make them live after I dress up!"
"It makes sense!" Huo Xiang deeply agreed and nodded slowly.
"Sister, what are you talking about, so happy!" Bai Mengru let go of her mother's hand, walked to Bai Zhenzhen with broken steps, and took her arm very intimately.
Bai Zhenzhen didn't rush away from her sister's arm this time, and replied calmly, "It's nothing, I just didn't know you will be here today. When I saw you, I was a little surprised."
Bai Mengru smiled shyly: "Sister, we are a family! Since I am the grandfather to see my brother-in-law, of course I am coming over!"
As he said, he looked at Huo Xiang: "By the way, brother-in-law, I went out on business the other day, and I haven't had time to congratulate you and sister!
"It's okay, we don't care anyway." Huo Xiang replied casually.
Bai Mengru's face instantly stiffened.
Bai Zhenzhen couldn't help it, and laughed after covering his stomach.
Yang Suping, who had just walked over, didn't realize that her daughter was humiliated. Instead, she smiled and asked the exact same question as her daughter: "What are you talking about? So happy!"
"It's nothing, just made a joke!" Huo Xiang kept a right smile on his face.
Bai Mengru subconsciously let go of Bai Zhenzhen's hand and returned to her mother's side.
She had a bad face, but she was silent and said nothing.
"Uncle Bai," Huo Xiang said to Father Bai, "My grandpa is already waiting for you in the box, let's go in together."
Father Bai nodded with a calm face.After walking a few steps, he couldn't help but look at Bai Zhenzhen more.
Bai Zhenzhen smiled at him.
Compared with the natural smile before, it was a little more deliberate and alienated.
** **
Huo Xiang, Bai Zhenzhen, and Father Bai walked ahead, and Yang Suping mother and son slowed down and followed behind.
Yang Suping was curious, and asked her daughter in a low voice, "What happened just now? Why did I look at your face not quite right?"
Bai Mengru then added more eloquence to what happened.
As he said, he choked: "Mom, how did my elder sister become like this now... she always belittles me and taunts me..."
When Yang Suping heard it, her teeth trembled with anger: "Oh, you are so white, you dare to treat my daughter like this!"
But considering Huo Xiang's current status, she didn't dare to question Bai Zhenzhen loudly, so she could only spread her teeth and claws behind them.
"Mom, when you called me today, what did you say that our family can be rich and prosperous with my sister? According to me, even if it is prosperous, at most Dad will follow and enjoy the blessing. In my sister's eyes, we are not considered Family, she wished our mother and daughter were unlucky!" Bai Mengru said aggrieved.
Yang Suping heard Bai Mengru's analysis and found it reasonable.
"Yeah, why did I suddenly get confused!" Yang Suping carefully pondered, "She is really not my daughter, even if she is married to a rich family, I can't get any oil and water!"
"Not only that, I am worried that she will change her way to humiliate us..." Bai Mengru added in a low voice.
Yang Suping thought so deeply, and said bitterly: "I said that Bai Zhenzhen changed his face recently. He used to pretend to call my mother, pretending to be filial, and suddenly called me these days. 'Auntie', and always show me her face! It is estimated that she has known the identity of Huo Xiang a long time ago, knowing that she is about to fly on a branch and become a phoenix, so she is exposed!"
Bai Mengru sighed: "Hey, I didn't expect my sister to be such a person..."
Yang Suping's eyes flashed fiercely, she secretly tugged Bai Mengru's hand, pressing her throat and said: "Mengru, let's not let Bai Zhenzhen continue to be so arrogant! The more she wants to go with us Clear the boundaries, the more we have to tear down her marriage! When the time comes, let's see how she sneers!"
"Mom, it's not good... and I see, the Huo Family Young Master quite likes my sister..." Bai Mengru pretended to hesitate.

"What do you know! No man is dedicated! What's more, people only like Bai Zhenzhen when they are in despair. Now they have money, can they be the same?"
The mother and daughter were talking quietly, unknowingly they had reached the door of the box.
Yang Suping said again: "Don't worry, you will watch the changes later and see how I can deal with her!"
** **
The group walked into the "Songhe Tower" box together.
This is the largest box in this hotel. It is spacious and luxuriously decorated. The crystal lamp on the top is a little exaggerated, which makes the whole private room magnificent.
But what surprised Bai Zhen most was that the area of this private room was so large, and the lounge on the side was thirty or forty square meters, and the dining area was even more spacious.But the table in the dining area is the size of a small round table at home, surrounded by six luxurious chairs, warm and not too crowded.
At this moment, a white-haired old man is sitting at the main seat of the round table. Although it is already in his twilight years, his spirit is very good.
"Come..." Seeing them coming, Old Huo got up from his seat and wanted to greet them.
A middle-aged man with the appearance of a housekeeper hurriedly walked over, trying to help him.
But he was rejected by Mr. Huo.
"Grandpa!" Huo Xiang called out with a smile, and took Bai Zhenzhen's hand.

Although Bai Zhenzhen was a little surprised, he did not reject him, letting him hold his hand firmly, and walked up to Old Man Huo.
"Grandpa, let me introduce to you, this is your granddaughter-in-law, Zhenzhen! This is the real father, next to Aunt Yang and sister Mengru."
"Hello, grandpa!" Bai Zhen really yelled obediently.
Sometimes the fate of people is really fixed by nature.
The first time she met this old grandfather just now, she felt very kind.
"Really, hello!" Old man Huo smiled kindly, and Chongbai nodded really.
Then he looked at Father Bai and stretched out his hand: "Mr. Bai, come, let's sit down first."
Father Bai and Old Man Huo shook hands, barely squeezing out a smile.
After everyone was seated, Mr. Huo began to explain the layout of the restaurant: "In fact, this place originally had a big table. I thought that there were only six people in total, so I asked the hotel to change a small table, which is more like a family dining. It’s also warmer."
Bai Zhenzhen said: "Grandpa is really thoughtful."
Father Bai said: "Old man Huo deserves to be the richest man, powerful and powerful. I think even if you propose to redecorate the box, the hotel will not refuse it."
Father Bai's tone was a bit yin and yang, which sounded very uncomfortable, and it didn't seem to be a joke.
The expressions of the others on the table changed, and the housekeeper standing beside him also gave Father Bai a more glance, his eyes a little displeased.
"But that's also true. Our small households are only worthy of this kind of small table." Father Bai added.
Yang Suping was afraid of annoying the richest man, "haha" laughed twice, and subconsciously yelled at Father Bai: "Old Bai, you are joking again!"
Elder Huo's smile froze for a few seconds before slowly returning to nature.
"I blame me, I made a bad idea and neglected Mr. Bai." Old man Huo slowly said, "Next time, I must choose a better place, and I will apologize to Mr. Bai."
"Grandpa, you are serious." Bai Zhenzhen said hurriedly. "We are honored to be invited by you. Thank you Grandpa. Next time, I have to let my father invite you to dinner."
After hearing this, the old man Huo laughed, then laughed twice, and heard Father Bai say: "True, how can old man Huo look at our shabby place, let alone ask him to eat, you should not make trouble in front of others. It's a joke."
Bai Zhenzhen's face instantly went dark.
Elder Huo was not upset or angry. He still smiled cheerfully and responded: "My grandson-in-law invites me to dinner. I like it wherever I go!"
Only the "grand daughter-in-law" was mentioned alone, but the Bai family members were not mentioned. All of you here should understand what this means.
With that said, he took the initiative to turn the turntable and turned the peanuts on the table to Bai Zhenzhen.
"Come on, really, eat some peanuts and smile often."
Bai Zhenzhen's expression eased a little now. She pursed her lips at Old Man Huo a little apologetically, but Old Man Huo was not angry with her. Instead, he smiled and nodded at her, beckoning her not to mind.
The warmth lingered in Bai Zhenzhen's heart.
Father Bai didn't stop, and continued: "Father Huo, let's tell you, I didn't come here for dinner, but I wanted to talk to you about the marriage between my daughter and your Huo Xiang."
Old man Huo smiled and said: "I know, Mr. Bai is worried about the wedding, don't worry..."
"Father Huo misunderstood. Actually, I want to discuss with you—cancel this marriage." Father Bai said.
Elder Huo was obviously taken aback, then turned to look at Huo Xiang.
Huo Xiang frowned and immediately looked at Father Bai and said, "Uncle Bai, why did you mention this again? Both Zhenzhen and I have already obtained the marriage certificate..."
"Father Huo, to tell you, I know what the identity of our Bai family is. Before Huo Xiang recognized the ancestor and returned to the clan, I was very satisfied, but now, we really can't afford it." Father Bai directly ignored Huo Xiang's words. , Only talk to Mr. Huo.
Bai Zhenzhen picked a peanut and started chewing, with a cold face.
Old man Huo was a little bit dumbfounded: "Mr. Bai, listening to you, it seems that my grandson is being affected by our family background."
Father Bai said: "It's because we have self-knowledge, so we won't insult ourselves anymore."
Elder Huo said: "Mr. Bai, I think you may have misunderstood. I have never asked Huo Xiang about the true family background, because I think that a person's family background cannot determine his character and life. Besides, two Regarding children, they just need to look at each other. As parents, we should all bless you, right?"
"Yes, yeah, Uncle Bai, I and Zhenzhen really love each other sincerely. It has nothing to do with who I am." Huo Xiang said sincerely.
He glanced at Bai Zhenzhen again.
However, Bai Zhenzhen returned him a look of "don't waste your words".
Known father Mo Ruonu, sure enough, Huo Xiang and his grandfather's words did not shake the position of Bai father.
"Old man Huo, I don't agree with you. Marriage is all about the same family, and marriage of different classes will not be happy."
Old man Huo laughed: "Mr. Bai, I look at my age as a generation older than you. Why are your thoughts even more decayed than my old man? Class marriage, what age is this? Now society emphasizes free love!"
Mr. Huo's words deeply touched Bai Zhenzhen's heart. Bai Zhenzhen couldn't help but exclaimed, "Grandpa, you are too right!"
Father Bai was annoyed when he heard it, and drank: "Bai Zhenzhen!"
"What's the matter, Dad?" Bai Zhenzhen pretended to be innocent, and blinked at her father.
Her treasure daddy, she can't beat and scold her, and she won't let the other side watch the fire and eat melons applaud?!
Yang Suping on the side watched this scene, and was secretly happy.
It seemed that she didn't need to do anything, because Bai Zhenzhen's marriage was about to be ruined by her father himself.
At this moment, three or four waiters started to serve the dishes with their delicate dishes.
Huo Xiang hurriedly said in a roundabout way: "Or let's eat first and talk while eating."
Mr. Huo also has an easy-going look: "Mr. Bai, you will be at ease if you come. No matter what, let's talk peacefully. This meal is still to be finished."
Father Bai gritted his teeth, but didn't continue to say anything.
"Yes, eat food, eat food." Yang Suping smiled and said.
After finishing speaking, he took the initiative to stretch out his chopsticks and gave Father Bai a piece of beef.
"Old man Huo, it's not unreasonable that our old white is worried." Yang Suping took the opportunity to intervene, "After all, this kid is really...oh..."
She wanted to speak again, halfway through, and sighed long.
Elder Huo asked with interest: "Oh, what's the matter?"
Yang Suping pretended to be twitching, and said slowly: "This child is really suffering. He hasn't received any good education since he was a child. He went out to work after graduating from high school. Don't look at her as a little girl, that can do all kinds of work. ! Handing out flyers, selling tickets, washing dishes in the restaurant, working as a waiter... She has done all the dirty work!"
"Such a child, although not my own, but I feel distressed when I look at it." Yang Suping paused and glanced at Bai Zhenzhen with pity, and then another turning point, "But I also know that she is a person It's too vulgar to be elegant. For a big family like you, those who marry in should be the girls with both talents and courtesy. Our family really doesn't deserve it!"
"It's really not yours?" Old man Huo was a little surprised.
He did not ask Huo Xiang about Bai Zhenzhen's situation, nor did he know that the relationship between this family was so complicated.
"Grandpa, Aunt Yang is my stepmother and married my dad when I was ten years old. As for Bai Mengru, it is the daughter of Aunt Yang and her ex-husband." Bai Zhenzhen explained.The tone is cold, without any emotion at all.
Bai Zhen really could see that Yang Suping wanted to belittle her in front of Huo's father, so that she could not be the wife of the Huo family.
It seems that her salary of two thousand yuan has not been able to send this greedy stepmother. It is estimated that Yang Suping has figured it out by now. If she is allowed to marry into a wealthy family, their mother and daughter will not only get rid of the light, but the situation will be even worse. , So decided to ruin her marriage.
It is estimated that there is still an abacus behind him, wanting to "sell" Bai Mengru.
——If Huojiaken marries her own daughter, then she won't have to worry in this life.
Bai Zhenzhen wanted to understand Yang Suping's mental journey, and took another look at Bai Mengru.
Bai Mengru didn't say anything, but silently lowered his head to eat vegetables.But Bai Zhenzhen knew that her mind was definitely not simple.
She was very curious that Yang Suping's change was something she wanted to understand, or it was brainwashed by her daughter.
"Children's education is indeed very important," Mr. Huo said, "Excuse me for taking the liberty of - can neither of you pay for the children to go to school?"
Yang Suping replied: "Master Huo, you don't know! Our family was in a bad family, and we depended on Lao Bai to support him. Later, Lao Bai lost his job and got sick again, so the family couldn't afford two children. Continue to study. It is really no better than our family Mengru, Mengru has been smart and clever since he was a child, and was admitted to a prestigious university..."
"Your second girl is in college now?" Elder Huo interrupted Yang Suping.
When Yang Suping heard that Mr. Huo was interested in his daughter, she was immediately excited and hurriedly said: "Yeah, yes! Our Mengru is studying at the best university in the city. Our academic performance is also the best every year, and she can dance. Yeah!"
"Oh? Did you learn dance?"
"That's not it, our family Mengru not only has a beautiful life, but is also a natural dancer! Oh, yes, she went to an entertainment company for an interview last week. People saw her dance well and have a temperament, and wanted to sign her to do it. Stars!"
With that said, Yang Suping touched Bai Mengru who was sitting next to her with her arm, and suggested: "Mengru, or else you can perform a live show for Mr. Huo!"
"Puff--" Bai Zhenzhen couldn't help but laughed out loud.
Facing everyone looking at each other, she hurriedly waved her hand and said: "Sorry, I may have eaten too much peanuts and choked..."
Her stepmother is also a talent, and she is not too embarrassed to let her daughter dance in front of so many people.
Mr. Huo looked at Father Bai and said thoughtfully: "Mr. Bai, I didn't expect you to be so selfless that you chose to provide your sister to school between your two children..."
Yang Suping replied first: "Oh, she is really a elder sister, so she should be a younger sister! What's more, her grades were not as good as Mengru, and it is estimated that she would not be admitted to a good university. It would be a waste to study!"
Father Bai continued: "I really offered to quit school to work. She is a sensible child and doesn't want to embarrass her parents."
Listening to what he said, it seemed as if he was afraid of being misunderstood that he would be bad for his daughter.
"Yes, mother, don't say that to sister." Bai Mengru said, "Sister is not easy, if it were not for me, she would not suffer so much, it is all my bad..."
Father Bai interrupted Bai Mengru's words, with some pity in the blame: "Mengru, what silly thing to say! You are also a good boy! Your wife followed me and suffered a lot, and I should compensate you..."
Bai Zhenzhen clamped a meatball and stuffed it in his mouth, almost chewing on his teeth.
What logic, you compensate them, what is your daughter's business?!Exchange your daughter's future for your peace of mind with their mother and daughter?!Because it's your biological daughter, you think it should be?!
——Bai Zhenzhen: "I have a sentence that MMP doesn't know when it is inappropriate to say it."
——System: "Host, the system warmly reminds you: improper talk."
——Bai Zhenzhen: "Xingba, anyway, I have already arranged the medical treatment for him. I will be on a business trip tomorrow, so I can't see it."
"Really..." Old man Huo, who was watching the ethical drama of the Bai family, spoke again.
He called to Bai Zhenzhen and waved to her: "Come here."
Bai Zhen really didn't understand what Elder Huo wanted to do, but she still got up and walked to his side.
Elder Huo looked up at her, took her hand slowly, and said softly: "These years, you have worked so hard..."
Bai Zhen really lost consciousness for a moment.
She saw the praise and pity in the eyes of the old man Huo, as true as his tone.
"True, you are a good, strong and independent child! You are not afraid of hardship or tiredness. At a young age, you have accumulated so much work experience, and you also help the family subsidize the household. Grandpa likes you!" Elder Huo continued.
Huo Xiang on the side looked at his grandfather and Bai Zhenzhen with a smile, and this scene made him feel warm in his heart.
Yang Suping was dumbfounded. She laughed "hehe" and then said: "Master Huo, you are really a bodhisattva! Our family is really not on the stage like this. Not only do you not dislike her, you also praise her!"
"Really such a good girl, why should I dislike her?" Old Huo asked back, staring deeply at Yang Suping.
"This, it's not..." Yang Suping said uncomfortably, "Oh, I'm not as embarrassed to say! She is a girl who went to society before she became an adult. Who knows what she has experienced... "
"Auntie Yang!" Bai Zhenzhen couldn't bear it anymore, and sharply interrupted Yang Suping's words, preparing to open up.
——She can't beat her dad. She can't cook this Yang Suping?!
Unexpectedly, Elder Huo patted her hand and said with a smile: "Really, don't be angry."
Then she looked at Yang Suping again, her smile disappeared at that moment.
"Ms. Yang's words were a bit too much. I have never seen a mother-even a stepmother, talking about her own daughter like that." Elder Huo said, then glanced at Father Bai, "and this father, Still silent on the sidelines."
"I, I'm also afraid that you don't understand the situation, so I'll give you a shot..." Yang Suping sneered.
"I already know the real situation very clearly," Huo said, "She is a kind-hearted, simple and tough girl. It is my honor for my grandson to marry a good wife like her."
"But really, you are a little bad..."
Elder Huo said, pretending to be serious: "Others bully you with your kindness, you have to go back! Kindness is a good quality, but it does not mean blind sacrifice and flattery. Do you understand?"
"Master Huo, look at what you said, as if our Bai family treated her badly..."
"Ms. Yang." Yang Suping was interrupted again by Mr. Huo. "If you want to treat my granddaughter with this attitude, I am a grandfather, so I have to ask you to leave here."
Huo Xiang on the side stared blankly.
He always thinks that his fascination skills are good enough, but he didn't expect Jiang to be hot!
——Bai Zhenzhen: "Under what circumstances, Mr. Huo actually speaks for me? Could it be caused by the attractiveness of 10,000 people?!"
——System: "...Host, you think too much, Elder Huo is already 70 years old..."
——Bai Zhenzhen: "Then this is..."
——System: "I think he really approves of you."
Bai Zhenzhen's eyes were hot.
What a kind and kind old man.
