Chapter 315
At half past six, Xu Hanxia had just gotten off work when she saw a gorgeously dressed Xu Dongxue standing at the door.
"Xue'er, what are you doing here?"
Xu Hanxia was surprised.
"Sister, I've come to see you for dinner."
"Mom and Dad have booked the most luxurious private room at Sheng Yun Xuan, so let's get together as a family tonight."
Xu Dongxue laughed.
Xu Hanxia's eyes widened, "Sheng Yunxuan?"
"Why are you going to such an expensive place to eat?"
"Also, why is there suddenly a gathering today?"
Xu Dongxue smiled mysteriously, "Of course it's something good."
"Alright, don't ask so many questions, mum and dad are still waiting, let's go there quickly."
Without any further ado, Xu Dongxue pulled Xu Hanxia into the car.
When they arrived at Sheng Yun Xuan, they entered the private room, where Xu Jian Gong Fang Hui was waiting.
Xu Hanxia greeted him and asked what was going on with a puzzled look on her face.
"Oh, it's like this."
"We invited an honoured guest over for dinner with us in the evening, and everyone in our family is getting it."
Xu Jiangong said casually.
Xu Hanxia was surprised: "An honoured guest? What valuable guest?"
Fang Hui and Xu Jian Gong looked at each other and laughed, "It's Huo Tiancheng, Duke Huo of the provincial city Huo family!"
"What?" Xu Hanxia's face changed and she immediately got up, "How did you guys ...... invite him to dinner?"
"This person is not a good thing at all!"
Xu Jian Gong was furious: "Unbridled!"
"Hanxia, how are you talking?"
"How is Huo Shao not a good person?"
Xu Hanxia said sharply, "It's not like you didn't see him when he ...... came to our company today."
"Can this be any good guy?"
Fang Hui laughed, "Halfsia, it's not right for you to say that."
"Huo Shao went to our company because he wanted to invite you to the ball."
"In his case, to put it bluntly, he has a crush on you."
"Hanxia, it's not wrong for a man to have a crush on you, is it?"
Xu Hanxia: "Mom, what kind of good feeling was that for him?"
"He went up there and spoke in a commanding tone!"
"Besides, what does he take me for, I have a husband, why should I be his dance partner?"
Fang Hui waved her hand, "Hanxia, Huo Shao is the heir to the Huo family, he's usually used to being high and mighty, so it's inevitable that he speaks a bit forcefully."
"But isn't that the embodiment of a man who is powerful?"
"Do you like Lin Mo's type of weak talker and coward?"
Xu Hanxia was furious: "Mom, what's wrong with Lin Mo?"
"That's because he has a good personality and doesn't want to be bothered with people."
Xu Dongxue laughed coldly, "He's a loser, what kind of character is that?"
"He does want to take it up with people, but does he have the ability to do so?"
"He's got some nerve today, he dares to hit one of Huo Shao's men, that's a slap in the Huo family's face!"
"Hmph, if he does something like that, will the Huo family let him off!"
Xu Hanxia's face changed slightly, today's incident was not a small one, she was really worried that something might happen to Lin Mo.
Seeing Xu Hanxia's expression, Xu Jiankong's heart moved and said, "Hanxia, tonight we invited Huo Shao, we also want to apologise to him specifically."
"Today's incident at the company was too unpleasant, if we really angered the Huo family, our family would definitely be finished."
"Hanxia, if you don't want Lin Mo to die on the street, you should also put in a few good words with Shao Huo and ask him to spare Lin Mo's life!"
Xu Hanxia hesitated.
She was really worried that something might happen to Lin Mo because of this.
If an apology to Huo Tiancheng would solve the matter, she didn't mind bowing this head.
But the question was, would Huo Tiancheng, would he let them off so simply?
After pondering for a while, Xu Hanxia said, "Mom and Dad, why don't I call Lin Mo first?"
Xu Jiangong immediately said, "No!"
"Are you crazy?"
"If Lin Mo knew about this, he would come over and make a big fuss."
"When that happens, I reckon Huo will kill him right here, do you want Lin Mo to die here?"
Chapter 316
Xu Hanxia was taken aback and ultimately did not dare to call Lin Mo.
Xu Dongxue laughed, "Sister, it's fine."
"Huo Shao is a very nice person."
"Since people are willing to come to the banquet, it shows his attitude."
"When the time comes, let's say a few good words, sis, and you can accompany him for a few drinks, and this matter will pass."
Xu Hanxia lowered her head and didn't say anything, she really didn't want to do this.
However, for the sake of Lin Mo, she could only endure the humiliation.
She had also made a decision in her mind that it was all right to eat and apologize, but if this Huo Shao made any untoward moves, she would not agree to it even if she died!
Seeing Xu Hanxia acquiesce, Xu Jiangong Fang Hui Xu Dongxue looked at each other and smiled, both were full of smugness.
At this moment, in the car park downstairs, Huang Liang was sitting alone in his car.
His face was as hard as it could be.
After today's incident, he could see that Xu Jiangong and Fang Hui did not take him seriously at all!
Now that Lin Mo was home, he could still get some advantage.
Once Xu Hanxia hooked up with Huo Tiancheng, his future status would probably be similar to Lin Mo's now, and he would also become a loser.
At that time, he did not know how long he could stay in the Xu family, not to mention getting the Xu family's properties, let alone hitting on Xu Hanxia.
Therefore, Huang Liang had already made up his mind that he would not let the Xu family have their way in this matter tonight, no matter what!
He got out of the car, wandered around and found a teenage kid.
"Hey, kid, do something for me and I'll give you two hundred yuan."
Huang Liang said.
The kid immediately came to life: "Do what?"
Huang Liang handed him a piece of paper, "Call this number for me."
"Tell him that Xu Hanxia is having dinner with Huo Tiancheng at Sheng Yunxuan, so he can watch out for it."
"By the way, don't tell the other party what I look like, understand?"
The child carefully took these words to heart, took the paper and received Huang Liang's money, and ran off to the side to make a phone call.
Huang Liang hid behind and listened to the child finish the phone call before he quietly left.
This phone call is to Lin Mo, to solve this situation, can only Lin Mo to do it.
Huang Liang, of course, would not make this call himself, once Xu Jiangong Fang Hui knew that he was behind it, it would certainly not spare him.
At 7:30 pm, Huo Tiancheng entered Shengyunxuan with a group of people strutting around.
This group of people, his new men from the provincial capital, were specifically responsible for protecting his safety.
When he entered the private room, the first time Huo Tiancheng saw Xu Hanxia, he instantly had a smug smile on his face.
"General Xu, we meet again!"
Xu Hanxia smiled awkwardly, while Xu Jiangong Fang Hui smiled fawningly and invited Huo Tiancheng to the upper seat.
This Huo Tiancheng was quite disciplined and did not make things difficult for Xu Hanxia.
When it was time to eat, Xu Hanxia specifically apologised to Huo Tiancheng.
Huo Tiancheng didn't say anything, he just avoided talking about it.
After eating for a while, when Xu Dongxue returned from going to the washroom, she suddenly noticed that two of Huo Tiancheng's men were hiding furtively in the corner.
She quietly took a look and found that these two men, were sprinkling some medicinal powder into a bottle of wine.
Xu Dongxue's face changed, was Huo Tiancheng trying to drug him?
The two men did not notice Xu Dongxue and returned to the private room with the wine.
Xu Dongxue pretended to be calm and went back, only to see the two men handing the bottle to Huo Tiancheng and giving him a wink.
Huo Tiancheng took the bottle and smiled, "Mr Xu, since you are so sincere in apologising in person, then of course I have to give you face."
"Fine, it's fine for me to forgive that Lin Mo."
"But, General Xu, you have to drink this glass of wine!"
Huo Tiancheng said, pouring a full glass of wine from the bottle and handing it to Xu Hanxia.
Xu Dongxue's heart immediately rose to her throat, Huo Tiancheng was drugging Xu Hanxia?
