To My Dear Mr. Huo Chapter 212 - A Gift at the First Meeting

Chapter 212: A Gift at the First Meeting

The Huo family was all there. Su Qingsang really did not have much experience with eating with such a big family all at once.

Li Qianxue was Old Master Li’s only daughter, and the Li family didn’t have many family members. It was the same with the Su family. Su Chenghui’s parents had pa.s.sed away long ago.

As soon as she entered the dining room, she saw all the family members seated around a large round table. There were two dining rooms in the Huo Mansion. One was decorated in European-style with a long dining table where Old Master Huo would eat if other family members of the Huo family were not visiting.

If many family members were there, they would eat in this dining room, which was decorated in a much different style. The round table was purchased by a specialized buyer who worked for Old Master Huo. The big round table with a turntable in the middle could serve 20 people. It was the first time Su Qingsang had seen a table with a turntable in a home.

Looking at these people quickly, she saw that the members of Huo Jinyao’s uncle’s family sat together, and his aunt’s family sat together. Huo Jinyao’s parents, Huo Mingguang and Liu Tongjia, sat on the left side of Old Master Huo.

There were still two positions on the right side of Old Master Huo. When Huo Jinyao entered with Su QIngsang, Old Master Huo beckoned them over. “Come and sit here.”

Su Qingsang instinctively looked at Huo Jinyao, but he leisurely took her hand and sat next to Old Master Huo. Huo Yifan and Huo Yiyang made eye contact with each other. No one could understand the meaning of this silent exchange other than the two of them.

Liu Tongjia’s expression was gloomy. She did not like this daughter-in-law, but Old Master Huo had asked her to not make things uncomfortable. She was so angry that she looked at Huo Jinyao and Su Qingsang with disdain. Being looked at by her mother-in-law in such a way, Su Qingsang was unable to do anything but subconsciously look at Huo Jinyao. Huo Jinyao looked at her and soothingly patted the back of her hand under the table.

Su Qingsang was relaxed by his actions. Although their gestures were concealed, other people were surprised at the affection that appeared in their eyes.

A complex expression appeared on Huo Yifan’s face. He narrowed his eyes. Although others had different expressions, everyone was at least surprised. Sitting beside Old Master Huo, Liu Tongjia saw her son’s behavior. Her face became more and more gloomy.

The stronger the relations.h.i.+p between Huo Jinyao and Su Qingsang appeared, the gloomier her expression became. Huo Mingguang did not sulk as obviously as Liu Tongjia, but he narrowed his eyes slightly at his son’s behavior.

Only Old Master Huo was very pleased. “Today, I am very happy. Not only has Jinyao come back, but he has started his own family. As the saying goes, ‘A man should have his own family and pursue success in his career.’ Jinyao, now that you have your own family, you should take responsibility for the family career. Do you agree?” Old Master Huo asked.

“Yes. Grandfather. I promise you I won’t let you down,” Huo Jinyao replied.

Huo Yifan, Huo Yiyang, and Wei Sihai’s expressions changed when Old Master Huo said this, but Old Master Huo seemed not to notice. He then turned to Su Qingsang. “Qingsang, I’m very happy that you were willing to come home with Jinyao. Now that you are married to Huo Jinyao, you are one of us. Well…I have something else to gift you. I have a villa in the Xicheng District. I want to gift it to you as a sign of our first meeting, and I’ll arrange an a.s.sistant to go to the office and transfer the owners.h.i.+p of it to you tomorrow.”

As soon as Old Master Huo said this, Huo Jinyao’s cousins were shocked. Huo Yifan and Huo Yiyang’s expressions became colder, as did the look on Wei Simeng’s face. Wei Simeng knew that villa was the one she had once asked for from her grandfather when she had turned 20. She had been refused.

Wei Simeng had no idea how Old Master Huo could gift it to an outsider. How could she stand for this?
