Chapter 459 Gift

After leaving the airport, Huo Jinxi returned to the Huo family mansion first.

This mansion was deserted enough in the past, but now that Cheng Manshu has left, it has become even less popular.

The servants at home gathered together in twos and threes to talk. When they suddenly saw Huo Jinxi coming back, they quickly dispersed and disappeared.

Huo Jinxi went upstairs, walked into Cheng Manshu's room, and saw two boxes placed in a conspicuous place.

After a moment of silence, Huo Jinxi stepped forward, took the two boxes in his hands, turned around and left.

When he returned to his old house, Mu Qian was accompanying Huo Qiran to complete his handiwork class assignment - a simple handmade flower arrangement, which was made swaying by Mu Qian.

Huo Jinxi walked forward slowly. When Mu Qian saw him, she had nothing to say and just asked casually: "You're back?"

"Yeah." Huo Jinxi responded, came forward, and placed the two boxes in his hands on the table.

Mu Qian and Huo Qiran's eyes fell on the two boxes at the same time.

"Dad, what is it?" Huo Qiran asked, "A gift?"

Huo Jinxi nodded slowly, "Yes, a gift."

"Who is this gift for?" Huo Qiran immediately asked with interest, "Can I open it and take a look?"

After Huo Jinxi gave a positive answer, Huo Qiran immediately picked up one of the boxes, and Mu Qian also picked up the other box and opened it at the same time.

"It's a ring!" Huo Qiran raised his head and found a crystal-clear and beautiful emerald ring on his hand.

Mu Qian also raised her head, holding a peanut-shaped jade pendant in her hand, with pure texture and flawless transparency.

"Obviously, we both got it backwards."

Mu Qian said something to Huo Qiran, and then exchanged the peanut jade pendant in her hand for the emerald ring in Huo Qiran's hand.

"Hey, peanut." Huo Qiran said, "Is this for me?"

Huo Jinxi responded lightly and said slowly: "Grandma gave it to you. I hope you can have a safe life."

Hearing the word "grandma", Huo Qiran couldn't help but pause slightly, and then looked at Mu Qian.

Mu Qian just put the ring on her hand smoothly, and then looked at him with her chin raised, "Don't you want it? Then give it to me! Anyway, I haven't received a gift for a long time!"

Huo Qiran was quiet for a moment, then suddenly stood up and jumped away, "Mom, you are too greedy! You already have a ring! This is mine!"

"You brat, isn't yours mine?" Mu Qian suddenly slapped the table. The next moment, she was hurt by the ring on her hand, and she quickly raised her hand and exhaled.

Huo Jinxi took her hand, put it in front of his eyes, and looked carefully at the ring on her hand.

A huge pear-shaped emerald gem shines brightly against the platinum ring and fine diamonds, which is particularly eye-catching.

"It's very beautiful." Huo Jinxi said.

Mu Qian tilted her head and looked at him, "Is it for me? Did you get it by mistake?"

"Maybe." Huo Jinxi said, "But it's fun to make mistakes, isn't it?"

Mu Qian snorted, admiring the ring on her hand, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm not that kind of greedy woman."

"Then I'll take it back first and ask you carefully before giving it to you." Huo Jinxi said.

Mu Qian suddenly retracted the hand with the ring on it, patted his heart with the other hand, and said: "What's yours is mine, I'll keep it for you, it's safe, don't worry!

"

As soon as she finished speaking, she stood up and walked straight towards the kitchen, eager to show off, "Auntie, look what good stuff I got -"

Huo Jinxi sat in the chair, looked at her back, and smiled lightly.



Two days later, the Huo family's old house prepared a small recovery banquet for Huo Jinxi and invited his childhood friends who had visited him frequently during his hospitalization.

Among the group of people, Huo Jinxi was originally the busiest. Now Huo Jinxi was suddenly free and even organized a rare dinner party. The group was very generous and everyone showed up.

It was rare for the old house to be so lively. As soon as everyone arrived, they surrounded Huo Qiran, who had already started talking. Some were teasing him, and some were coaxing him to go against his father. It was very lively.

During the dinner, someone accidentally revealed the truth that Huo Qiran was Mu Qian's biological child, which instantly triggered a new round of topics.

He Jingchen was stunned. He looked at Huo Jinxi and asked, "What's going on? How long have we not seen each other? You, you, you... how many things are you hiding from us?"

"It's not that I don't want you to know on purpose." Mu Qian said, "The key is whether you know about it or not, it doesn't matter... This is an internal matter within our family, why do you worry?"

"Why doesn't it matter?" He Jingchen reached out and hugged Huo Qiran into his arms and said, "In the past, this kid couldn't speak, and his background was unclear. It was inevitable that everyone was not sure how to treat him. But things are different now.

, the three words 'eldest son' are the most important words, plus he has a sweet mouth, I like him so much now that I plan to adopt him as my godson - godson, godfather!"

After hearing this, Huo Qiran just looked at Huo Jinxi and Mu Qian without answering.

Huo Jinxi was too lazy to pay attention to such a thing, while Mu Qian glanced at He Jingchen, "Who agreed? Son, please don't scream!"

Fu Chengyu, who was next to him, laughed out loud and said, "Don't pay attention to him, he is at a loss!"

He Jingchen suddenly glared at Fu Chengyu. When Mu Qian heard this, he immediately slipped over and said, "What are you doing to yourself? Are you going to use my son as a shield?"

"Are you kidding?" He Jingchen said, "What can I do to harm my godson?"

Huo Qiran listened to Mu Qian's words and turned away without responding.

Mu Qian immediately rushed to Fu Chengyu's side and said, "He won't tell, Brother Fu, you tell."

"It's not a big deal." Fu Chengyu said, "Even their family has reached an in-depth cooperation with the Lu family——"

"Oh -" Mu Qian immediately pointed at He Jingchen, "You traitor! Why do you have the nerve to come to my house for dinner? Why do you still have the nerve to accept my son as your godson?"

He Jingchen withstood a series of attacks from Mu Qian and was unable to dodge. He could only bite the bullet and explain: "I really didn't mean it. Firstly, I can't make the decision alone; secondly, when we reached a cooperation, I really thought

The Huo family has reconciled with the Lu family; thirdly, these things between you Huo family and the Lu family only happened after you were injured - the contract had already been signed by then, and I really had no choice!"

Huo Jinxi didn't seem to mind much about this. He only glanced at him and turned to talk to Mo Xingjin again.

However, Mu Qian persisted and vowed to drive He Jingchen, the "enemy of the people", out of the Huo family.

While two people were pushing and shoving at the door, a car stopped in front of the building. The next moment, the car stopped and Rong Heng pushed the door open and got out of the car.

When he saw Mu Qian and He Jingchen, Rong Heng couldn't help but frowned, "What are you two doing?"

"Don't ask," Mu Qian said, "If you ask, just help me get him out first!"

He Jingchen is a grown man, and he is used to Fengyue, but Mu Qian is Huo Jinxi's wife. How can he withstand her making such a fuss, so he can only admit defeat, "I was wrong, I was wrong, it's all my fault!"

I swear to God that I will never do anything to feel sorry for Huo or Jin Xi, okay?"

After hearing this, Mu Qian snorted and said, "Swear another oath."

"What?"

"Stay away from my son." Mu Qian said, "I'm afraid you'll teach him bad things!"

He Jingchen: "..."

When the three of them returned to the hall together, Rong Heng saw the people in the room. He paused for a moment and then asked Mu Qian: "Isn't it a recovery banquet? Why are there only so few people?"

After hearing this, Mu Qian let out a long sigh and said, "Do you think your second brother is still a hot potato now? After leaving the Huo family, how can anyone be willing to pay attention to him?"

"What you said..." He Jingchen said, "Are we not human?"

Mu Qian chuckled, "You said this yourself, not me."

He Jingchen accidentally jumped into the pit again and couldn't help but raise his hand and press his forehead.

Rong Heng sat down next to him, feeling a little absent-minded for a moment. After loosening the collar and cuffs of his shirt, he got up and went to the bathroom.

When he came out of the bathroom, Mu Qian was washing her hands in the sink outside. When she saw him, she smiled at him.

Rong Heng suddenly noticed something and did not respond to her.

Sure enough, the next moment Mu Qian had already spoken: "I just realized that you asked me that question just now because you thought there was someone else you should see here, right?"

"Who?" Rong Heng asked coldly.

"That person you are thinking of." Mu Qian said, "Originally, I invited her today, but she was idle at first, but she found an excuse and couldn't say it out. Alas..."

"What does it have to do with me?" Rong Heng's eyes darkened slightly and he spoke while washing his hands.

Mu Qian leaned against the sink and looked at him, "I wouldn't have come if it were me. Last time I was treated like that, why are you so eager to get in front of others? Aren't you looking for trouble?"

Rong Heng raised his hand and turned off the faucet, then turned to look at her, "When did I show mercy to her?"

"Think about it for yourself?" Mu Qian snorted coldly and said.

Rong Heng frowned and replied: "I did it to Lu Yuchuan, not to her——"

"What you said is so nice." Mu Qian said, "If you really thought you didn't hurt her, why did you come looking for her the first time?"

"How could I-" Rong Heng wanted to argue again, but when he met Mu Qian's eyes, he suddenly stopped and just silently picked up a tissue to wipe his hands.

"Let me tell you, Yuanyuan was really unhappy about what happened last time. You know how weak-tempered she is, so I can detect that she is unhappy. Think about the evil you have done." Mu.

Qian said, "If you are a man, go and apologize to Yuanyuan."

After Mu Qian finished speaking, she turned around and walked away.

Rong Heng was left standing by the sink, almost torn the paper towel in his hand, but still didn't move.
