Chapter 79 - Huo YanXiao Is the One That I Want to Marry! (2)

Due to some inexplicable and delicate emotions, she had never looked away from Huo YanXiao. 

Apparently, as the one who was just now proposed to publicly, Huo YanXiao’s calm face was now filled with surprises. He, too, was looking straight at Nie AnAn. His dark eyes were like two bottomless vortexes, making it impossible for Nie AnAn to read what was going through his mind. 

The banquet all went silent for about half a minute before everybody returned to normal. 

Qin Hai’s face went from a smile to an embarrassed look and back to a beaming look. His face went through all sorts of ups and downs like a roller coaster.

Smiling, he said, “That wasn’t specified. I have two sons, AnAn. You can marry whichever one you like.”

Having said that, he looked at Huo YanXiao and said to him, “YanXiao, how come you never mentioned to me before that you and AnAn are….”

Huo YanXiao, on the other hand, walked up to the stage directly. He was still in shock from what just happened, but he had already walked over to where Nie AnAn was standing. 

Then, reaching out, he took Nie AnAn’s hand and started walking off the stage. “I am taking AnAn for a rest.”

Nie AnAn was truly nervous and a little bit stumped. She almost lost her footing and tumbled down the stairs when Huo YanXiao tugged at her. 

But, the very next second, the man’s arm carefully reached around her waist and held onto her tightly. 

His large palm rested on her waist and the heat from his palm could be felt on her skin through the very thin layer of fabric. 

Feeling that Nie AnAn was shaking a little, Huo YanXiao frowned a little and asked, “AnAn, are you feeling alright?”

Nie AnAn wasn’t sure how to face Huo YanXiao. Her eyes were filled with intimidation, like an injured little animal. 

Huo YanXiao simply bent down and picked her up. 

The hemline of Nie AnAn’s dress was long and dropped down from Huo YanXiao’s suit. It had the sensation of silk. It floated in the air as he walked and the crystals on it reflected beautiful lights and shadows. 

He carried her through the crowd who split up into a path for them to pass and walked into the resting area. 

Under the stage, everybody seemed to have just now recovered. 

“So AnAn is fond of her brother? How come I’ve heard that she was pursuing Young Master Qin before?”

“Hey. As you’ve said, that’s all hearsay! Now this, this we witnessed with our own eyes. Haven’t you noticed? AnAn never so much as glanced in Young Master Qin’s direction earlier.”

“That’s true. Young Master Hao is handsome and grew up with AnAn. They must have feelings for each other after all these years of being together. Now that’s a good childhood sweetheart couple if I have ever seen one!”

“Looks like the wedding banquet between the Qin’s and the Nie’s will be soon!”

“Hey, congratulations, Old Qin!”

***

The bustling has returned to the hall. Qin ZiMing, on the other hand, was still standing at the same spot. He maintained the same look as he did before, but his mood was dropping lower and lower. 

Did that woman just faceslapped him publicly?

Wasn’t she all over him previously? Didn’t she wait for him outside of his office building and they couldn’t even get her to leave?

And now, how dare she faceslapped him in a venue like this and made him lost face in front of all his relatives and friends?!

He didn’t care whether AnAn was fond of him or not. But this was about his face!

He lost to that b*stard Huo YanXiao!

His fingers tightened reflexively, and he almost crushed the wine glass inside his hand. 

Before Qin ZiMing was even able to calm himself, Qin Ziyi, from one side, completely failed to read her brother and said to him, “Big brother. What do you think was going on with dad? I definitely told him that I wanted to marry ChengFeng-ge but he called out to AnAn instead…”

Qin ZiMing casted his sister a glance and snickered, then he turned and left without saying anything else. 

Not getting the comfort that she sought, Qin Ziyi pouted and also walked away.
