1692 Wanted To Personally Give Her The Gift

Yin Lianyi nodded. Ji Huaizhi was the heir of the Ji family, after all. It was already good enough that he came by to drop off a gift. It was fine even if he did not attend the banquet.

“Chunyu, prepare a gift. We’ll pay a visit to Young Master Ji one day to thank him.”

“I understand, Grandma.”

Xia Chunyu was extremely excited. She picked up the birthday gift from Ji Huaizhi and was about to open it.

“Look, isn’t that Young Master Ji’s car?! Why is it back?” someone suddenly asked.

Everyone hurriedly looked over. It was indeed Young Master Ji’s high-profile luxury car driving over.

“That’s not right! The car isn’t coming to First Cla.s.s Residential. It’s going to the other side…”

Before they could finish talking, Ji Huaizhi’s car stopped in front of Hua Xia Hotel. A handsome and charming young man got out of the car and entered it.

“Young Master Ji is… going to Miss Qiao’s banquet!”

Yin Lianyi’s face instantly turned livid as she subconsciously retorted, “Impossible! Xi Xi has just arrived in the capital. How could she know the young master of the Ji family?”

Seeing that Yin Lianyi was angry, everyone tried to console her. “Young Master Ji must have another reason for going to Hua Xia Hotel. It’s not like Miss Qiao is the only one holding a banquet in Hua Xia Hotel.”

As soon as they finished speaking, an attendant rushed over. “Old Madam Xia, Miss Xia, this is a gift from Mr. Yang Wei to Miss Xia.”

Yang Wei was the heir of the Yang family, and his status was extremely n.o.ble. Yin Lianyi’s expression softened a little. “Where’s Mr. Yang? Invite him over for a meal.”

The attendant wanted to say something but hesitated. He finally braced himself and said, “Mr. Yang went… to the other side.”

Ji Huaizhi and Yang Wei had both gone to Hua Xia Hotel. Could it be for Qiao Xi?

At this moment, someone had already started to contact the staff of Hua Xia Hotel. Could it be that apart from Qiao Xi, there were some other n.o.ble families holding banquets there? Why were the two heirs from the top four major families there?

Before everyone could come back to their senses, they saw the Huo family’s car parking in front of them. Huo Yuzhou looked up at everyone and was not in a rush to get out of the car. Instead, he turned to his a.s.sistant and asked, “Do you think she won’t want to see me?”

“It can’t be. You saved her. I believe Miss Qiao has stopped blaming you.”

Huo Yuzhou smiled bitterly and shook his head. Qiao Xi had not invited him to this banquet, so she naturally did not welcome him. He came over without permission because he hoped to personally hand the gift to her.

At the thought of this, Huo Yuzhou opened the door, got out of the car, and walked toward the door.

Yin Lianyi was full of smiles. “Mr. Huo.”

Everyone thought that Huo Yuzhou was here to deliver a gift, but Huo Yuzhou walked over and asked gently, “Old Madam, aren’t you going to invite me in?”

Yin Lianyi was very surprised. She immediately led the way and brought Huo Yuzhou into the banquet hall. He had a gentle smile on his face as he looked around, but he soon asked in confusion, “Old Madam Xia, where is she? I want to give her the gift myself.”

Yin Lianyi’s expression suddenly stiffened. Who should he give the gift to? Wasn’t Chunyu standing in front of him?

She hesitated for a moment and pushed Xia Chunyu forward. “Chunyu, quickly greet Mr. Huo.”

Although Huo Yuzhou was not as famous as Ji Huaizhi in the capital’s circle, he was doing well overseas. Xia Chunyu smiled shyly at him. “h.e.l.lo, Mr. Huo.”

Huo Yuzhou’s expression was calm, and he did not respond immediately.

Only then did everyone realize that something was wrong. Huo Yuzhou sneered. “Isn’t today the banquet for the daughter of the Xia family, Qiao Xi? Why is Old Madam Xia holding a banquet for the family’s adopted daughter here? It’s not very n.o.ble of the Xia family to be so biased toward their adopted daughter.”

The moment that was said, the banquet hall fell silent.

Xia Chunyu was so embarra.s.sed that her face turned red. The person Huo Yuzhou was looking for was Qiao Xi?

At this moment, Yin Lianyi finally reacted, and her expression instantly darkened. “Mr. Huo, Xi Xi’s banquet is being held in the opposite hotel. You went the wrong way. Why are you mocking Chunyu?”

Huo Yuzhou frowned before smirking. “I heard that Old Madam Xia specially went to Li City to bring Qiao Xi back and was holding a banquet in First Cla.s.s Residential. I naturally thought that you were holding a banquet for Xi Xi. I didn’t expect it to be for the family’s adopted daughter’s birthday. In that case, I’ll take my leave.”

Everyone looked at each other and thought that Huo Yuzhou’s words made sense. Old Madam Xia had acknowledged Qiao Xi, so it was only normal to think that she was holding this banquet for her. It was no wonder that Mr. Huo went to the wrong place.

After Huo Yuzhou left, the banquet hall was deathly silent. No one dared to make a sound, afraid that they would anger Old Madam Xia.

Yin Lianyi suppressed her anger and said, “The banquet is about to start. Please take a seat.”
