Instantly, the phone rang. From the caller ID, they saw it was Huo Buqi!
Ye Yao bit her hand nervously. âArghhhh, Iâm even more confused now. I thought that my Verbal Virtuosity skill wouldnât work on the Huo family. Why is it suddenly so effective again?!â What was going on today?! Had her Verbal Virtuosity technique gone crazy?
Huo Buyu sighed helplessly. The reason for Ye Yaoâs strong reaction was because Huo Buqi was the high and mighty President. However, to Huo Buyu, Huo Buqi was just his brother. There was nothing special about his brother calling him.
Huo Buyu picked up the phone. âBig Brother.â
Huo Buqiâs teasing voice came from the other side. âI heard that you got angry because of a woman. Amazing.â
Huo Buyuâs face turned red. Huo Buqi probably knew that the Qin family had lost a lot of money because he had thrown out all the shares of the Qin family. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Huo Buyu admitted lightly, âYes.â
Huo Buqi continued, âThis matter has blown up somewhat. This woman seems quite special to you. Did the old man give you pressure?
Huo Buyu didnât say anything. Huo Buqi knew his brother very well. His silence meant that he was right.
Huo Buqi chuckled. âDonât be afraid. Someone in our family has to be brave enough to pursue their own love after all. If you run into issues, your elder brother and sister will be here to support you.â
Huo Buyu was a little moved. âBig Brotherâ¦â
Huo Buqiâs voice drifted. âHuo Buyu, Iâve been feeling regretful all these years, so Iâll do my best to protect you and everything you want. All the best!â
âUh huh!â Huo Buyu replied.
Huo Buqi continued with a chuckle, âIâll be home next week. Iâm giving you a chance to treat me to a meal, along with my future sister-in-law.â
Huo Buyu glanced at Ye Yao, who was covering her eyes and eavesdropping. He smiled and nodded. âOkay.â
Ye Yao jumped up from the sofa. âOh my god! The President is actually going to dine with me? Iâm so excited!â
Huo Buyu was speechless, but he could understand. This was because Huo Buqi had always been admired by everyone, including himself. His only idol was Huo Buqi.
Huo Buqi was something of a legend. He became the President at the age of 26, making him the youngest and most promising president. He was a god-like figure.
Ye Yaoâs eyes lit up. She was too excited at the idea of dining with a god-like figure like Huo Buqi! But on second thought, that wasnât right. She said, âWhen
I try to jinx you, I end up bearing the consequence instead. The Verbal Virtuosity doesnât work on your grandfather, but how is it that itâs so effective on your brother?â
Huo Buyu shook his head. âI donât know.â He couldnât explain what was going on.
Ye Yao tilted her head, her thoughts wandering. âBy the way, your brother said that he has been regretful. What is he regretful over?
Huo Buyuâs expression darkened. âNothing.â
Ye Yao acutely sensed something and asked, âIâm curious. Canât you tell me?
Huo Buyu stroked Ye Yaoâs head with a faint smile on his face. âWe will be fine. We wonât let others break us up.â
âHungâ Ye Yao was puzzled. Break Did he mean Huo Buyuâs grandfather didnât want them to be together? Ye Yao couldnât understand why her Verbal Virtuosity technique didnât work on Huo Buyuâs grandfather.
Ding.
Her phone alert chimed. Gao Qiao had sent through a video. The person in the video was Qin Jiao. Qin Jiao, who had always claimed that she would never apologize, was apologizing in the video. She had been forced by Qin Guodong.
Now, Yang Yaâs status had skyrocketed. A second ago, Qin Jiao had added fuel to the fire and slandered her. The next moment, Qin Jiao had been forced to apologize. Hence, Yang Ya had also caused trouble for Qin Jiao behind her back, compelling Qin Guodong to force Qin Jiao to apologize.
In the video, Qin Jiaoâs apology seemed quite sincere. She said that her ego prevented her from apologizing and admitting her mistake previously. That was why she continued to err. Now that she understood her mistakes, she was taking the initiative to apologize to Ye Yao. She even said that in order to make up for her mistake, she would donate 100 million yuan to charity, and hoped that the public would forgive her.
Because of her sincere attitude and the significant donation, Qin Jiao was easily forgiven by the public and the matter blew over smoothly. Of course, Qin Jiao had done a very bad thing this time. Her attitude and donation aside, the after effects caused by her actions and the opinion others had of her were a different story..
