The man's jaw tightened, and a thick layer of ice covered his perfect face. Under the gentle lens, the double pupil's vicious aura was deep and surging; it was tightly locked in the direction of the high platform not far away.

"Third Brother, you're not here yet. Why aren't you leaving?" One of the idiots who was obviously heartless walked up to the man and asked naively and fearlessly.

And this ignorant fool was precisely the Qi Song who had just returned to his homeland from South Africa, who had been nurtured by the mountains and rivers of South Africa.

Qi Song's face was as black as if he had not washed his face in many years. He looked dirty, even more ugly than he used to be!

He didn't know how unsightly his current 'ugly face' was, so he kept his face close to the man's.

The man's eyes suddenly flashed with killing intent. His entire body was releasing air currents, enough to freeze a person to death. His cold gaze did not land on Qi Song's body, but he was still frozen solid.

Sou! Qi Song hid behind the man standing shoulder to shoulder with Huo Chengshang, and like a wife, grabbed onto the man's arm, asking for his protection.

The man's clear eyes coldly swept over the hand he was holding on his arm. His tone was very warm, but it was enough to be ruthless. "Do you want your hand?"

"?" Qi Song immediately retracted his hand.

She stood beside Huo Chengshang with a sorrowful expression.

What the heck was this? He only knows how to bully someone with only two. This brother is amazing.

Alright, it's that big brother who is truly amazing. At the very least, this big brother still doesn't dare to challenge the authority of the three people beside him!

Sigh, her fate was miserable!

Qi Song craned his neck to look towards the center of the birthday celebration, and there were countless beautiful women who were already looking at him in secret.

Just thinking about it made him very excited!

He had already eaten several months worth of vegetarian food. If he could endure it, his brother could not!

He had thought that the beauty was already very close to him.

Who knew that a certain old man would walk all the way here without leaving...

"Aiya ?" Qi Song suddenly screamed in shock, his face had a look like he had seen a ghost, and his hands were trembling as he pointed at the stage. Those two eyeballs that popped out because of his shock, under the contrast of his black face, looked extremely comical. It made him look even uglier!

"Third Brother, Third Brother, look, isn't that our Third Sister-in-law?" Qi Song was just too shocked.

How did his Third Sister-in-law end up together with second brother Qiao's baby brother?

Third Sister-in-law?

Qiao Jingyan frowned, he looked at the girl beside Qiao Jinglian on the stage and asked Huo Yaoting suspiciously, "Ol 'Three, your wife is Xiao Xi?"

"Second brother, you know my Third Sister-in-law?" Qi Song was shocked.

Hearing that, Huo Yaoting's gaze turned to Qiao Jingyan coldly.

In the face of Huo Yaoting's stern and stern expression, Qiao Jingyan's expression was still as cold as ever. His tone was as cool as water, as though the word "emotions" did not exist in his dictionary.

Qiao Jingyan pursed his lips and said, "Jinglian has lived in the Qiao Family Old Residence since he was young, and is neighbors with Xiao Xi."

"childhood sweetheart?!" Qi Song shouted.

Huo Yaoting's face tensed up as he stared coldly at Qiao Jingyan.

"It's not wrong to call her childhood sweetheart."

If amongst these four brothers, the only one who dared to not give Huo Yaoting face and not say anything, was most likely Qiao Jingyan.

Qiao Jingyan's face was ice-cold as he glanced at Huo Yaoting, "You really like Xiao Xi?"

"Mine!" Huo Yaoting declared all he had as if he were a king.

Qiao Jingyan looked into his eyes.

The intense possessiveness and monopoly in his eyes was something he had never seen before.

Qiao Jingyan slightly frowned, and turned to look at the stage not far away.

"Stop messing around, I'm begging you, Qiao Jinglian ?" Ye Xi was at a loss of what to do, the booing below the stage would only make her feel embarrassed.

"Xi Xi, I didn't make a fuss, I'm more serious than ever." Qiao Jinglian gently patted her head, and then said to the audience, "I, Qiao Jinglian, will now officially a

ounce that Ye Xi is my, Qiao Jinglian's, woman, and not long from now, she will be my, Qiao Jinglian's, wife!"

After Qiao Jinglian finished speaking, he turned to face Ye Xi and unknowingly, a dazzling diamond necklace had appeared in his hands.

The pendant on the necklace was a diamond shaped like a pigeon's egg. In the middle of the diamond was a blood-red gem. It was obvious that it was a priceless treasure.

The moment the necklace in his hand was revealed, it caused a series of exclamations.

Below the stage, Elder Qiao who was standing in the middle saw the necklace in his hands, his eyes darkened, and immediately walked up the stage.

"Grandpa ?" Qiao Wei quickly pulled him back and smiled apologetically, "Grandfather, it's not like you don't know that Lian'er likes Xiao Xi since she was young. Furthermore, Lian'er was already twenty-six to twenty-seven years of age, and he had the right to choose the other half. "You don't want him to become an old man like me, do you?"

Elder Qiao's face was frighteningly black, he looked at Qiao Wei with a stern look, "You guys get through first, don't you guys want to play after the banquet starts?"

"?" Qiao Wei's face paled slightly. Facing his sullen face, he fell into a deep sleep for a few seconds.

This was the first time that her grandfather, who had always been amiable and amiable towards his juniors and had never even loudly berated them, had spoken harshly to her.

"Grandfather, I admit that Lian'er mentioned it to me in advance, but I don't think that this is a bad thing. We watched Xiao Xi grow up, and we know very well what kind of person she is. I thought she was a match made in heaven when she was together with Lian'er. And why are you so angry? "

After all, he was the Director of the Joe's Group.

"A match made in heaven?" She is just the daughter of the owner of a small hotel. Elder Qiao bellowed, his tone filled with disdain.

"?" Qiao Wei opened his mouth in disbelief, he almost thought he had heard wrongly.

She'd never imagined that such words would come out of her respected grandfather's mouth.

Qiao Wei took a deep breath and clenched his fists, "Grandfather, you watched Xiao Xi grow up. How can you say that about her? How sad she would be if she heard it! "

"You think I didn't say that in front of her?" Elder Qiao's face was filled with resentment, "I thought she already knew what kind of thing she was. She overestimated herself and tried to seduce Third, and I really underestimated her!"

"..." "Grandfather!" The extreme shock made Qiao Wei's eyes turn red, the hand holding his arm couldn't help but tighten, "Grandfather, could it be that Xiao Xi's sudden estrangement from Lian'er was because of you?"

The last time at the coffee shop, she'd noticed that Xiao Xi's expression wasn't right when she heard about her grandfather, and thus she had some doubts in her heart.

After returning, she mentioned something to Lian'er ? Qiao Wei's eyebrows twitched.

It seemed that from that day onwards, Lian'er started to oppose her grandfather. It was no longer as intimate with him as it used to be.

So, Lian'er also knew the real reason why Xiao Xi avoided him, right?!
