Chapter 896 - 896 896 Qiao Yun Arrived
?Chapter 896: Chapter 896: Qiao Yun Arrived Chapter 896: Chapter 896: Qiao Yun Arrived Xu Qiao’s smile stiffened, and she immediately thought of the incident after Tianqi’s assessment ended: when she bad-mouthed Qiao Yun to the elder Mrs. Li.
Jiang Shaocheng wouldn’t have mentioned it if she hadn’t already forgotten.
Now being questioned, of course, she couldn’t admit it, her eyes evasive as she said, “I didn’t say anything.”
Jiang Shaocheng’s face turned as black as the bottom of a pot, “If you didn’t do anything, why wouldn’t the old lady answer my call?”
Xu Qiao said unexpectedly, “Today is our daughter’s important day; can’t you talk about whatever it is another time? Why bring up this matter for no reason?”
Jiang Shaocheng took a deep breath, lowering his voice to reprimand, “Can’t you see that not a single person from the Li Family has come!”
Xu Qiao was startled—she knew she’d forgotten something, and it was the Li Family!
“It was you who personally promised Mrs. Huo that the Li Family and we are relatives, that they would definitely attend the banquet. You’ve said it, and now not a single person has come; who knows how the Huo Family will view us.”
Xu Qiao said uneasily, “It can’t be that serious, right? Perhaps they will come later. Even if they don’t give us face, they still have to give face to the Huo Family.”
Jiang Shaocheng, still frustrated, was about to say a few more words to her when a servant came to inform him that Mrs. Huo and Huo Lin had arrived. He no longer had time to lecture Xu Qiao, instructing her instead to inform Jiang Jing to join him in welcoming the guests.
…
Fu Yun wore a figure-hugging evening dress today. Despite not looking very well, she still carried herself with an aristocratic air.
By her side, Huo Lin, suited and booted, bore a cold expression, carrying an innate sense of authority.
Their appearance sparked a small climax at the venue.
Everyone who had accepted the invitation had come for Huo Lin.
It was well known that Huo Lin seldom attended banquets, and the fact that he had shown up this time showed that he took Jiang Jing seriously.
