Chapter 120 Added Part

The commotion here was quite big, and even though the banquet hall was quite large, it attracted the attention of most people, especially the parents of several wealthy girls.

"Zhiyi!"

A middle-aged woman wearing a cheongsam and a full set of jade jewelry came running from a distance, hugged her embarrassed daughter distressedly, and asked anxiously: "What's going on? How could such a thing happen at Mr. Liang's dinner party!"

Shen Zhiyi threw herself into Madam Shen's arms and stopped howling, but she was sobbing and looked even more aggrieved.

"Tell mom what's going on. I'll definitely take care of it for you!" While Mrs. Shen was speaking, she looked around with a gloomy look, as if she was searching for the evil person who bullied her daughter.

At this time, the other four daughters stood up righteously.

"Aunt Shen, it was Mr. Huo's female companion who pushed Zhiyi down."

"Yes, we saw that she didn't know how to remove the crab legs, so we kindly came to ask for help, but she scolded us without knowing the truth. Zhiyi was so angry that she went up to argue with her, but she pushed her down."

Gu Qingyin was shocked. He started making up stories right in front of the real owner. Was he so confident?

Madam Shen followed their gaze and looked at Gu Qingyin, her eyes fierce, "No matter who it is today, you must give us an explanation! Our Zhiyi has never suffered such an injustice since she was a child!"

The eyes of the people around also fell on Gu Qingyin. Although they didn't show it on their faces, there was a hint of contempt in their eyes. She started to act like a tyrant before even entering the Huo family, and she was not afraid of angering Huo Xingye's disgust.

Is he really confident, or is he just a fool?
"After they've finished talking, shouldn't they listen to what I have to say?" Gu Qingyin smiled, "They've been confusing right and wrong, and making up stories. Today I've finally seen what kind of person the so-called daughter of a famous family is like."

Gu Qingyin curled her lips in disdain, "You still dream of marrying into the Huo family? That can only be realized in dreams."

Several rich girls wanted to quibble, but Gu Qingyin quickly raised her hand to stop them, "I don't want to know the limit of your IQ." She raised her head and pointed upwards, "Just watch the surveillance."

The young ladies looked up and saw a pitch-black camera pointing straight at them. The red light below was still flashing, silently announcing to everyone that it was operating normally.

In an instant, the faces of several wealthy girls turned pale.

Why are there surveillance cameras here?!

If Gu Qingyin could hear it, she would definitely answer with a smile: Of course, because this is the Feng Shui treasure place she specially found! She even adjusted the angle, so it must be clear and wonderful!
Mrs. Shen had nothing to understand after seeing this. They had to suffer the loss today even if they didn't want to!

On the other side, Huo Xingye had just gone to a private room to say hello to a few seniors, and when he came out he saw a group of people gathered in the beverage area. His heart skipped a beat and he strode over.

As soon as he approached, he heard a man in the crowd talking nonsense, "For Mr. Huo's sake, our Shen family will not care about today's incident. But I have to give you a piece of advice. It's not easy to be the wife of a wealthy family. If you are not in your own circle, even if you try hard to fit in, it won't be easy."

Huo Xingye's eyes darkened, he pushed everyone aside and walked in, glanced at Gu Qingyin, confirmed that she was exactly the same as before he left, then looked to the other side with relief.

"Mr. Shen, you are too polite. I don't have that much face. Let's just do what we have to do."

The man called Mr. Shen's expression suddenly changed, but he still tried his best to keep smiling, "Mr. Huo, let's forget about this matter. We don't intend to pursue it..."

"I refuse." Huo Xingye looked at him calmly, "Adjust the surveillance video and project it directly onto the big screen. If it's really our fault, you can ask for compensation as you wish."

The people around who didn't know what was going on were all envious when they heard this. It was a rare opportunity to make a request to Huo Xingye! If he used it well, the family's status might soar!
They didn't notice at all that Mr. Shen could no longer maintain the smile on his face, and Mrs. Shen and Shen Zhiyi's faces were also pale.

Not only them, the four daughters were also panicking. They subconsciously looked for their support in the crowd, that is, their parents. They were indeed in the crowd and had arrived a long time ago, but they had not shown up, and they didn't even dare to stand forward for fear of being discovered.

Now is not the time for them to appear.

Huo Xingye had spoken, so Mr. Liang, as the host of the banquet, naturally asked someone to communicate with the hotel manager and request the surveillance footage.

They had to wait for a while, and Gu Qingyin was tired of standing, so she pulled a chair from the side and sat down.

Huo Xingye walked over and asked softly, "I heard that the seafood today is good, have you eaten it?"

Gu Qingyin looked at the crab legs that had fallen to the ground and curled her lips, "I almost ate it."

Huo Xingye also looked back, and then his eyes turned even colder when he looked at the three people from the Shen family.

He turned and went to the dining area, took two crab legs, and started to peel the crabs. After wiping his hands, he considerately provided a dish of dipping sauce, and then took them back one plate at a time.

Mr. Liang next to her was very considerate and dragged a chair over and placed it next to Gu Qingyin.

Huo Xingye thanked him politely, and after sitting down, he still held the plate steadily, "Eat."

Gu Qingyin was of course not polite, and commented while eating, "Too much vinegar was added, and the sweet taste of the crab itself was covered up."

"Really?" It was also Huo Xingye's first time mixing something like this, and he just followed his feelings. He nodded as if he was being taught, "I'll pour less next time."

The onlookers looked at each other, unable to hide their shock.

This is still Huo Xingye, who is not interested in women and is like a cold-faced devil on weekdays? This is too much pampering!

The three members of the Shen family and the four daughters were even more terrified. Who could have thought that Huo Xingye could spoil a girlfriend from an ordinary family like this? This was totally unreasonable!
Shen Zhiyi became more and more jealous, and couldn't help but say: "My dad was right! It's not easy to be the wife of a wealthy family!"

Gu Qingyin swallowed the crab meat in her mouth, curled her lips and said, "Really? I think it's quite easy to be the boss. Maybe... you think it's difficult because the husband of that lady is not capable enough."

Gu Qingyin picked up another piece of crab meat slowly and said, "Don't look for the cause of everything in the environment. You should reflect on yourself occasionally."

Shen Zhiyi was speechless.

Because what Gu Qingyin said was true. The Huo family's status did not require the so-called "lady diplomacy". As the mistress of the Huo family, she could do whatever she wanted without considering anything else.

What about the circle of wealthy wives? Others are scrambling to get in, but the Huo family doesn't even bother to do that.

To put it bluntly, they are not on the same level at all.

Mr. Shen's face turned red, he was angry and embarrassed. It would be fine if Huo Xingye said this, but it came from Gu Qingyin's mouth.

Why would a woman from an ordinary family look down on him? !

At this time, the hotel manager came running over with a USB flash drive. He stood in front of Mr. Liang and said breathlessly, "The surveillance videos you asked for are all here."
