There is a middle-aged woman and a young girl beside Mrs. Huo. They are both very fair, but this whiteness looks very natural on them.
In Wu Xiaoxie's opinion, the looks of these three people are all the best, especially that girl, who speaks softly, has an elegant and gentle appearance, and looks like she is a lady raised in a big family.
Wu Xiaoxie subconsciously wanted to reach out and say hello politely, "Hello, Granny Huo, I am Wu Xie."
Before he stretched out his hand, Zhang Zhuxun poked him in the side and behind.
Wu Xiaoxie reacted suddenly and retracted his hand without leaving a trace.
The person opposite is Mrs. Huo, the only female head of the Nine Gates. She is different from the small retail customers he usually interacts with when doing business. The gesture of shaking hands inevitably seems too philistine.
Okay, okay, Wu Xiaoxie breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed the tips of his fingers, and almost showed timidity in front of the old woman.
Huo Xiangu looked Wu Xiaoxie up and down, her eyelids drooped, and she said indifferently: "Sure enough, he is a bit similar to Wu Laogou. Others told me that I still don't believe it. It turns out that this stinky dog ​​really has no future."
There was obvious sourness in these words. Wu Xiaoxie didn't know how to answer the question about the older generation, so he had to smile bitterly.
Huo Xiangu stared at his face for a few seconds and said angrily: "It looks more like him when he smiles. It doesn't look like a good thing."
Wu Xiaoxie's smile froze on his face, and he thought to himself: Why is this old lady so vindictive? The older generation is so confused, what kind of trivial matter can a junior like him get away with?
Huo Xiangu left these words alone and drank her tea, completely ignoring Wu Xiaoxie.
A coldness flashed across Zhang Zhuxun's eyes. He raised his hand and directly pulled the empty chair on the right, pushing Wu Xiaoxie over and said, "Young Master, please sit down!"
"Oh." Wu Xiaoxie was stunned, and didn't think too much. Just sit down if there is space. This old lady doesn't care about hospitality at all.
As soon as the clinker Wu Xiaoxie's butt landed on the chair and before she could sit firmly, Huo Xiangu suddenly changed her expression, slapped her hand heavily on the table, and shouted: "Who told you to sit down, stand up!"
Several people present were shocked.
Wu Xiaoxie muttered in his heart that it was okay for this old woman to play tricks on others, and her temper was so unstable, so she immediately lay down and said, "If you don't make it clear about Shi Shi Lei today, I won't stand."<
/p>
Huo Xiangu's face was livid, she looked away and ordered: "Xiuxiu, call Xiao Zhang Xiaoli over and kick these stinky gangsters out!"
The young girl next to me has already stood up and seems to be going to call someone.
Zhang Zhuoxun snorted coldly, raised his hand and put it on Wu Xiaoxie's shoulder to steady him and stop panicking. He raised his eyes and stared at Huo Xiangu, and said coldly: "It's just a seat, how come he, Lord Zhang, can sit down? We, Mr. Wu Xiaosan,
Can’t sit still?"
Huo Xiangu was stunned, frowned, and stared at Zhang Zhuxun carefully, but she didn't see the reason.
But it can be heard from this young man's words that he clearly understands the meaning of this position.
He immediately sneered and said, "This is interesting."
Then he turned to look at Wu Xiaoxie and said calmly: "Since the young master of the Wu family wants to sit, let him sit."
The young girl next to her was a little anxious when she heard this, "But grandma, that position..."
"Why are you so anxious? Today's show is particularly exciting." Huo Xiangu raised her hand to stop the girl and sneered, "Master Wu, if you want to know the answer to the question, just sit here until four o'clock.
"Half, if you can sit still, I won't make it difficult for you."
Wu Xiaoxie suddenly had an ominous premonition and asked her, "Just sit here?"
"Yes, sit here alone." Huo Xiangu took a sip of tea, with a faint smile on her lips.
As soon as he finished speaking, a crisp ringing sound came from downstairs.
The originally noisy environment fell into a dead silence.
Wu Xiaoxie inexplicably felt as if there was a time bomb stuck with needles under his butt, and his heart was pounding as if it was about to pop out of his chest.
"What should I do?"
He tilted his head slightly and whispered a few words through his teeth, "Why do I feel like I have jumped into a pit?"
Zhang Zhuoxun bowed slightly and whispered in his ear to comfort him, "Don't be afraid, as long as you sit quietly, with the three of us here, even if the sky falls, it will lift it back."
When he said this, he did not deliberately suppress his voice.
Huo Xiangu was not deaf, so she naturally heard this sentence and snorted coldly: "Arrogant, as expected, this young boy just doesn't know how high the sky is and how high it is. You will suffer the consequences later."
Zhang Zhuoxun pushed back without being soft or hard, "Old lady, we still don't know who has the deer until the last moment."
Although the fat man also felt that something was wrong, at such a critical moment, how could he increase the momentum of others and destroy his own prestige? He immediately responded: "That's right, old lady, you are now older. Sooner or later, this air will belong to us young people."
Whether a person has the ability or not, our subordinates will tell you the truth."
"Oh?" Huo Xiangu had a hint of joking on her face, "Really, old lady, I want to see what you are capable of today, how can you compete with the old rules set by the Crescent Hotel for hundreds of years."<
/p>
While talking, the curtains in the entire building were closed one by one, and the surrounding area was suddenly dark.
The giant chandelier in the center is turned on, and the magnificent light and shadow are flowing. Those old appliances, carved buildings, carpets, and bead curtains look very rich and luxurious against the dim light.
The young girl next to her let out a soft cry and stared at the stage with burning eyes, "Has it started yet?"
"It's begun." Huo Xiangu's eyes became softer when she looked at the young girl, "We have a good show to watch today."
After all, this place was not the territory that Fatty was familiar with. In fact, Fatty was a little uneasy. He winked at Zhang Zhuxun, meaning that he would act according to the situation later. The old woman was definitely not holding back her anger.
Zhang Zhuxun gave him a calm look, and the fat man felt a little relieved.

The staff on the stage are adjusting the sound equipment and lighting, and the noise below is getting louder and louder.
The debugging was completed quickly and the staff withdrew.
A charming female emcee wearing a bright red cheongsam walked up to the stage, holding a microphone, and a Qingyue voice sounded, "The auction is about to begin. Anyone waiting, please leave. Please keep quiet in the venue, and the waiters can start."
Distributed auction rosters and printed fingerprints."
The screens in the booths upstairs were removed, and the guests came out to sit by the fence.
Xie Yuchen is on the chair on the left side of the second box on the left opposite them.
He was flipping through the booklet in his hand casually, but the clerk next to him suddenly leaned down and said something in his ear.
Xie Yuchen raised his head and turned his gaze to Mrs. Huo's box. When he saw Wu Xiaoxie sitting on the right, his brows immediately furrowed.
"Why is he sitting in that position? Mrs. Huo didn't remind him why."
Jie Yuchen hurriedly waved to the waiter to remind Wu Xiaoxie that if he took that seat, the Wu family would probably lose everything.
At this moment, Wu Xiaoxie finally realized something was wrong.
In the box within sight, regardless of their status, those people, including Liu Lisun and Pink Shirt, were all sitting on the chairs to the left of the root carving table, no matter how many people there were. He was the only one sitting alone on the chair on the right.
.
Could it be that there is something strange about this location?
Thinking of this, Wu Xiaoxie couldn't help but start to break out in a cold sweat.
At this moment, the screen in their box was moved away, and a female waiter wearing a blue cheongsam came in, holding a tray in her hand.
Suddenly seeing Wu Xiaoxie sitting on the chair on the right, she was stunned, and then her face turned pale, as if Wu Xiaoxie's behavior offended her.
The female waiter gave Wu Xiaoxie a cold look, turned to Huo Xiangu and said respectfully: "Madam, is your friend sitting in the wrong seat?"
There was a trace of ridicule in Huo Xiangu's eyes, and just as she was about to speak, Zhang Zhuxun reached out and took away the mahogany hard-cover booklet from the female waiter's tray, and handed it to Wu Xiaoxie.
"No
You're sitting in the wrong seat." Zhang Zhu glanced at the female waiter and curved his mouth, "We, Mr. Wu, are here today just to sit in this seat."
The female waiter frowned and turned to look at Mrs. Huo.
Huo Xiangu sneered, "Since everyone has said so, let's grow our eyes together today."
He said with a pretentious sigh, "I haven't seen this kind of scene for a long time. Ever since Old Changsheng sat here, no one has dared to sit in this position for a long time. However, what I took today can be regarded as a once-in-a-century event. It has appeared several times.
If you don’t care about your life, it’s a good time. Let’s get another booklet.”
"Okay." The female waiter responded, put away the surprised expression on her face, and quickly sent another brochure to Huo Xiangu.
At the same time, a pot of delicious Biluochun was served, "Boss Wu, this is a gift from our foreman, please use it as you please."
After saying that, he retreated.
Wu Xiaoxie felt confused and something was very wrong. While drinking tea, he quickly raised his eyes and asked Zhang Zhu who was standing next to him for help.
