Chapter 23: Stealing Her Husband
He pressed his sunglasses elegantly and surveyed his surroundings. He could tell that the people coming and going here were either rich or noble with his Fiery Golden Eyes. It was worth it!
Chi Nan immediately went to the entertainment center and used his charm to quickly obtain the various gossip he wanted after settling the check-in procedures.
When he returned to his room, the schedule for Huo Ce that he had asked for was also sent over.
Chi Nan shook the paper in his hand in satisfaction. That was good. Huo Ce’s schedule was very full and he did not have time to accompany Ning Wan and Huo Yuan.
Huo Ce would also bring Huo Yuan to some important meetings. Then, Ning Wan would be alone most of the time. It was simply a godsend opportunity!
He had to use this opportunity to seduce Ning Wan!
Chi Nan was very satisfied looking at his elegant self in the mirror. He began to arrange his itinerary in detail. Time was precious, and he could not waste the opportunities of the few high-quality rich women he had gotten to know along the way.
Huo Ce was a workaholic. After settling down, he immediately threw himself into work with Han Chi.
Han Chi gave Ning Wan a timetable with the activities that Huo Yuan and she needed to attend together.
Ning Wan could not help but complain inwardly.
It was really not easy to be the real Young Madam of the Huo family.
She looked down at Huo Yuan again. It was even harder to be the future heir of the Huo family.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was still some time before the banquet tonight, Ning Wan decided to bring Huo Yuan out to play for a while.
Huo Yuan was so happy that he skipped around and played happily with Ning Wan in the water park.
The banquet was also held in the hotel’s banquet hall. Ning Wan was dressed up and pulled Huo Yuan along, obediently holding Huo Ce’s arm as a tool.
Ning Wan maintained a noble, dignified, and gentle smile and replied, “Thank you!” “You’re too kind.” to all the comments of “Madam Huo is so beautiful.” “The two of you are really a golden couple!” “Young Master Huo is so handsome.”
Huo Ce was very satisfied with her performance.
When the show was over, Huo Ce said warmly, “I have something to discuss with someone. Take Huo Yuan to eat something. Don’t run around. Be careful.”
Ning Wan heaved a sigh of relief and quickly retreated with little Huo Yuan.
Huo Yuan held Ning Wan’s hand and gestured for her to put her ear closer. “Young Aunt, I’m starving.”
Ning Wan sighed. “That’s right! I really don’t understand why these people are bragging non-stop to each other.”
Huo Yuan pursed his lips and smiled. “Young Aunt, this is how business is done. This is a normal interpersonal relationship. Look at how different Little Uncle’s words and attitude are from everyone.”
Ning Wan was stunned and said in surprise, “Why didn’t I notice? Impressive, Huo Yuan!”
She gave her nephew a thumbs-up.
Huo Yuan’s eyes lit up as he said in embarrassment, “Little Uncle taught me everything. He said that in a new environment, I have to observe more and speak less. Knowing people is always the most important ability in business.”
Ning Wan sighed. Indeed, dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes! This little child of the Huo family could understand at a glance. His genes were really powerful.
The buffet was very sumptuous.
Ning Wan brought Huo Yuan a piece of cake and a cup of fruit tea. The two of them found a corner booth and sat down. They listened to the gossip from all directions as they ate.
“I didn’t expect Young Master Huo to bring his wife here. Your plan has been disrupted. You can’t force yourself on him when he has a female companion by his side, right?”
“So what? Love is equal and free!”
“They are officially married! If you stick to him again, you’ll be a mistress!”
“I don’t care! I’ll do anything for love!”
Ning Wan bit the edge of the spoon and could not help but size up the four young ladies in luxurious clothes not far from them. Their voices were not low and they did not seem to be avoiding them.
“Young Aunt, someone wants to snatch your husband.” Huo Yuan frowned angrily.
Ning Wan reached out and stroked his head. “You know this too? Hurry up and eat your cake!”
Huo Yuan patted her hand. “Didn’t you hear that? Aren’t you anxious?”
Ning Wan smiled. “This is not something to be anxious about. It’s their ability if they can snatch him away. We just have to watch the show.”
In the first two years, she had spent a lot of effort chasing away the bees and butterflies around Huo Ce. She was happy to be free now that she would not be struck by lightning anyway. She even looked forward to it so that her life would be more lively.
“Miss Ning Wan, what a coincidence to meet you here?” A surprised voice sounded beside her.
Ning Wan looked at Chi Nan, who had suddenly appeared in front of her, and her smile suddenly disappeared.
