Chapter 363: Lunch Dispute

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The originally spacious sofa was good for three people to sit on, but it just so happened to take up all the space.

However, Xian Yu’s face was a little dark. From time to time, he would look at Huo Yichen on Murong Qiao’s left.

“Is it squeezy? Do you want to go to Third Brother’s side?” Murong Qiao mistakenly thought that Xian Yu felt that it was too uncomfortable.

Of the two sofas, one was for Huo Yichen and Murong Qiao, and the other was monopolized by Murong Chuan. However, Xian Yu chose to let Murong Qiao make room for him.

Xian Yu was stubborn. “No.”

He insisted on sitting beside Murong Qiao.

Murong Qiao could only make way for him. However, after she did this, she inevitably stuck closer to Huo Yichen, making Xian Yu’s face even darker.

Fortunately, this scene did not last long before it was broken by Uncle Yang saying that lunch was ready.

The conversation was moved from the living room to the dining room. Because of Huo Yichen’s arrival, the seats were adjusted so that Huo Yichen and Murong Qiao could sit together.

In order to take care of everyone’s taste, the kitchen had prepared some every dish this time. Among them, there were a few dishes that Murong Qiao liked.

“You eat.” Huo Yichen picked up a piece of boiled meat for Murong Qiao.

Knowing that she couldn’t take spicy food, Huo Yichen specially asked for a small plate of water. After rinsing the meat, he placed it in Murong Qiao’s bowl.

Murong Qiao ate naturally and didn’t think that there was anything wrong. After all, she usually ate like this when she went out with Huo Yichen.

However, the Big Brothers around her were all a little silent. Among them, Murong Chen even paused in his action of taking food for Murong Qiao.

“Big Brother?” Murong Qiao called out in confusion.

Murong Chen, who had not moved for a long time, responded. His gaze swept past Huo Yichen, who was carefully picking out the fish bones for Murong Qiao, but he didn’t say anything.

However, there was an indescribable feeling in his heart, as if something had been snatched away.

Xian Yu didn’t realize it. “Qiaoqiao, this is for you. And this!”

He picked up a few dishes in a row and piled them all in Murong Qiao’s bowl.

He looked like he was comparing himself to Huo Yichen.

“Alright, alright…” Murong Qiao agreed.

She followed the flow and ate the additional vegetables in the bowl. However, the speed at which she ate was clearly not comparable to the speed at which the food was piled on her bowl. Soon, her bowl was almost filled.

Among them, Xian Yu could be said to be the main force. On the other hand, Huo Yichen saw Xian Yu’s actions and simply scooped a bowl of soup for Murong Qiao and placed it beside her hand.

He picked away the coriander inside. “Drinking some soup will help with digestion.”

“…” Xian Yu was even angrier when he saw this scene.

He stopped eating crazily. He had to admit that Huo Yichen indeed knew Murong Qiao a little.

The dishes he picked for her were all Murong Qiao’s favorites. The fish and prawns were also peeled and placed in her bowl. He would even carefully pick out some seasonings so that those troublesome and delicious dishes could be swallowed in one gulp.

“Eat your food properly, Xian Yu.” In the end, it was Murong Chen who spoke.

Yan Xiu looked at Xian Yu, who was holding his breath, and then at Huo Yichen and his Little Sister, whose expressions were normal. In the end, he silently buried his head in his food.

He did not intend to interfere with the person his Little Sister liked, and it seemed like Huo Yichen was not bad.

At least under Yan Xiu’s silent observation, when Huo Yichen was by her side, the corners of Murong Qiao’s mouth would always curl up. It never fell, and even her eyebrows would curve to express the joy in her heart.

The atmosphere during lunch was still warm. Huo Yichen’s various actions and details were also seen by the Big Brothers.

“I remember that Young Master Huo has a company under him?” Murong Chen only spoke after eating.

After Huo Yichen nodded and acknowledged it, he raised his eyebrows. “Coincidentally, I have some business problems too. Why don’t we go to the study to communicate?”

Of course, these words were just a cover. After all, Murong Chen had Shengjing Group under him. Even if there were business problems, he would not “communicate” with Huo Yichen.

The excuse was naturally not important. What was important was that there were some things that couldn’t be discussed in front of Murong Qiao.

“Coincidentally, I have some problems to consult Big Brother too. Why don’t—” Murong Qiaoqiao could tell that something was wrong.

She stood up and held Huo Yichen’s arm, wanting to follow him upstairs to prevent her Big Brother from making things difficult for Huo Yichen.

But before she could finish her sentence, her other empty hand was pulled back by her Third Brother. Murong Qiao turned around in confusion and met her Third Brother’s gentle and firm gaze.

Murong Chuan asked her to stay. “They are discussing boring things. I’m afraid you’ll be bored if you go.”

“Coincidentally, I also want to talk to you about your physical report,” Murong Zheng said.

Leaving her behind was one thing, but paying attention to his Little Sister’s health was another.

The device he had given her for her birthday was not for nothing. Murong Qiao’s physical data during this period of time was now in the hands of Murong Zheng.

As Murong Zheng and Murong Chuan spoke, they diverted Murong Qiao’s attention. In the end, when she was distracted, Huo Yichen had already gone upstairs with Murong Chen.

The two of them came to Murong Chen’s study. Huo Yichen sat down under Murong Chen’s gaze and looked at him calmly.

Murong Chen’s gaze was filled with probing and consideration. When he glanced at him, it seemed to carry a pressure that could make people reveal their true thoughts.

“As far as I know, there are still many people in the Huo Family who don’t acknowledge you.” Murong Chen pointed out Huo Yichen’s current predicament as soon as he opened his mouth.

Murong Chen’s silence during lunch was like a layer of disguise. When only the two of them were left, he revealed his sharp eyes, as if he could see through everything.

Huo Yichen calmly crossed his legs. “As long as Huo Hong still values me, I’m the heir of the Huo Family.”

His answer was methodical, as if he had everything under control. Even when dealing with Murong Chen, he didn’t show any worry about his position being unstable.

Moreover, Huo Yichen was still managing his company well. It was enough to show that Huo Hong was very satisfied with his ability.

“Huo Hong…” Murong Chen lowered his eyes in deep thought. “As far as 1 know, the Huo Family doesn’t know that you proposed to Qiaoqiao.”

When he mentioned this, his tone became slightly heavier. Clearly, he valued this matter very much.

Since the secret proposal had already happened, it was useless for Murong Chen to fuss about it. He might as well put his focus on the matter beyond.

Murong Chen recalled his investigation. “I know something about your situation, but it’s inevitable that the rotten things and dangers of the Huo Family will pester Qiaoqiao through you.”

This was also what Murong Chen was most worried about.

“I know that you’ve known each other since high school, so I’m sure you understand what kind of life she had in the past.” Speaking of the past, Murong Chen’s tone couldn’t help but sink a little.

It was also because they knew that their Little Sister had suffered in the Nan family in the past that after knowing that she was in a relationship, the Big Brothers did not object for a moment.

As long as their Little Sister was happy, nothing else mattered.

Fortunately, he had no intention of saying this and only touched on the main point. “The Huo Family and the Murong Family have everything. 1 don’t pay attention to the exchange of interests. 1 just want to know what your attitude towards Qiaoqiao is and what your plans are.”

From the beginning, Shengjing Group existed for Murong Qiao, so that the Murong Family’s princess could live the best life.

Although his words were a little exaggerated, they were based on the Murong Family’s power and strength.

Murong Chen crossed his fingers. His dark eyes seemed to want to see the deepest thoughts in his heart.

“What do you think of Qiaoqiao?”
