Cheng Anning was sitting in the car because her mood was ups and downs, she was excited, and she even felt uncomfortable in her stomach.
That night, Mr. Huo did not come back. Cheng Anning spent the night in a corner and had nightmares. When he woke up the next day, he was not in good spirits.
In order to avoid being seen strange, Cheng Anning also put on makeup to cover up.
Because they were about to leave for the countryside, the entire Huo family manor took action and prepared things in an orderly manner.
It wasn't until this moment that Cheng Anning knew where this 'hometown' was.
In City Y, Province G, there is a Jiangnan courtyard left over from the former Qing Dynasty. It has three rooms. It occupies a large area and is well preserved. It is also a famous local attraction. Unfortunately, it will not be open to the public because it is a private courtyard.
Yes, it is also the property of the Huo family.
Cheng Anning once again had a new understanding of how rich the Huo family was.
The old man was in a good mood. He had returned to his hometown and had a lucky granddaughter-in-law with him. He talked more.
"An Ning, please don't mind if our place in the countryside is a bit small. It's a bit small, but it has all the internal organs."
Cheng Anning looked at the endless courtyard, her face numb.
Because the old lady came back, the whole yard was tidied up in advance, and someone started to decorate the yard, presumably in preparation for the wedding.
"Where has Ayan gone? Why haven't you come here yet?"
"Master, the young master will arrive in the afternoon."
"It's already this time and I'm still busy with business!"
The old man complained, but was in a good mood and took Cheng Anning for a walk. However, due to lack of energy, he went to rest after eating and asked the butler to accompany him the rest of the way.
From the housekeeper's words, Cheng Anning learned that Mr. Huo had lived here for several years when he was a child.
"The young master was a bit lonely when he was young, so my wife specially brought him here for vacation to relieve his temper."
After speaking, Uncle Zhong, the housekeeper, covered his mouth again, as if he had said something wrong.
This was the first time Cheng Anning heard what Mr. Huo's parents said, but judging from the housekeeper's attitude, she wisely did not ask further.
After walking around, Cheng Anning was about to go back to her room. On the way, she saw a pointed building and looked over.
That building is very strange, not too far away from the courtyard, and it is not an oriental building, but a western watchtower, standing tall there.
The surface of the watchtower has been aged for a long time, and there is still a layer of black marks, as if it had been burned.
Cheng Anning asked curiously: "Uncle Zhong, where is that place?"
Uncle Zhong looked over, his face suddenly tightened, and said: "Young madam, don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask, and don't mention it in front of the young master. This is for your own good."
"If I mention it for a while..."
"die."
Cheng Anning immediately shut up.
She took a nap, and when she woke up, she found that Mr. Huo had already arrived.
The entire yard was also re-decorated. Red lanterns were hung and happy words were pasted on them.
Cheng Anning was in a daze for a moment, thinking that she had traveled through time after sleeping.
When I looked up, I saw a man standing at the end of the corridor, looking at the scenery in the courtyard outside.
He was wearing a black slim-fitting suit, with a tall figure, wide shoulders and narrow waist, and a pair of long legs wrapped under suit pants. He just stood there casually, with a strong aura of nobility surrounding him.
That's Mr. Huo.
Cheng Anning wanted to turn around and leave, because Mr. Huo was answering the phone, and his voice was calm and gentle, which was rare.
She felt she shouldn't bother.
But Mr. Huo had already seen her, said something, hung up the phone, and said, "Come here."
Cheng Anning had no choice but to walk over obediently, "Third Master, do you have anything to do with me?"
"The Cheng family will come over tomorrow."
Cheng Anning's eyes widened and she clenched her hands tightly.
"Afraid?"
Cheng Anning said calmly: "I'm not afraid, but Third Master, they hate me and hate me, so they don't want me to marry a high man. I'm afraid if they come, tomorrow will not go well."
Mr. Huo smiled, "No, they don't dare."
"Third Master, you don't understand them."
"This is the Huo family."
With just four words, Cheng Anning understood and let go of his clenched hands.
Too.
This is the territory of the Huo family. No matter how much the Cheng family hates her, they dare not do anything but endure it. Who told them to climb up to the Huo family's flag?
It was still a flag given by them personally.
Huo Yan saw the flash of smile in her eyes, felt a little unhappy, and uttered a sentence coldly.
"The Huo family's dog can only be bullied by the Huo family, and no one else is qualified."
Unexpectedly, Cheng Anning was not angry at all, "Third Master, you are right."
She is a dog, and she can still use the name of the Huo family. Although she can't defeat the Cheng family now, it would be good to make them sick for a while.
Huo Yan didn't understand how she could still smile, but he didn't want to pay too much attention to this woman.
He hates her.
Especially after knowing that she was unclean before marriage and that he accidentally touched her twice.
This disgust and nausea are always with me, and I think of her every time I see her.
But he never showed it, because disgust is also an emotion.
Rather than hating Cheng An Ning, he hated himself even more for having such strong emotions caused by others.
"Cheng Anning, don't think that this wedding can allow you to escape crime."
"I don't dare to hope."
He said he didn't dare, but his expression didn't show the slightest fear.
Huo Yan emphasized his tone and said, "We will settle the account after the operation is over."
This time, Cheng Anning finally changed his expression.
Huo Yan was satisfied and walked away, leaving her standing alone for a long time.
The next day.
The whole courtyard became lively.
Originally, this area was deep and quiet, but due to a wedding, it became a bit noisy.
Although the old man meant to keep everything simple and did not invite too many business friends, many people still received the news and came here specially to give gifts without going in.
All kinds of noble gifts were collected by the servants one by one. As for the guests who could come in to attend, there were only a few guests, but every one who brought them out was a famous person.
It was not too early when the Cheng family arrived, and there were dedicated servants waiting to lead them in.
Cheng Xuerou and Zhao Junlin also came. Seeing the servants rushing in and out, all the priceless gifts being carried in, she almost went crazy with jealousy.
Cheng Hai had a smile on his face, Jiang was still very old, and he couldn't see how ruthless he was when his daughter was found and dealt with personally not long ago.
Bai Mei followed beside her, also acting like a rich lady.
At this moment, Bai Mei saw her daughter's angry face and reminded her in a low voice: "Xue Rou, pay attention to your expression."
Cheng Xuerou gritted her teeth and said, "Mom, why is that bitch's life so good, and the Huo family is still willing to marry her!"
Zhao Junlin was about to open his mouth when he heard this, but thought of something else and closed his mouth with a sad expression.
"Mom, is Mr. Huo still unaware? Let's report her!"
As he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a cool response.
"No need to waste more time." This chapter has been completed!
