Chapter 392: 394 Deep Night (3)_1
Qin Shaojin’s eyebrows lifted in amusement, and a smile crept onto his face, his eyes cold, as he fixed his gaze on the waiter for a good while before turning his attention to Huo Jinnan.
Huo Jinnan’s eyes fell on the waiter, gave him a quick glance, and with an icy voice, he said, "No need."
He turned to look at Che Huan and stood up. He took off his suit jacket and draped it over Che Huan, his slender fingers neatly adjusting the collar and casually buttoning up one, just covering the wine stain on the dress. In a rich, deep voice, he asked, "Shall we go back?"
Che Huan had a vague sense that something was amiss. That incident just now had been a bit too coincidental, hadn’t it?
She cooperated with a murmured, "Mm."
Huo Jinnan, along with Che Huan and the little one, bid farewell to Qin Mochuan.
Qin Mochuan felt displeased inside, yet he did not show it, whereas Qin Family’s old master and the old madam sat there, their complexions looking rather troubled.
The Huo Family patriarch sat to one side, unable to speak out. He had thought that today, no matter what, considering Qin Shaoling’s feelings, Anan would have compromised.
Now it seemed he had been mistaken.
As for this grandson, he was becoming more difficult to see through, and he felt more and more helpless.
It was as if a stone weighed heavily on his heart, making it difficult to breathe.
Glancing at Qin Family’s old master and old madam’s faces, he coughed lightly and, with a pleasant countenance, spoke up, "Anan, why don’t we all go back together later? Just have someone take Huanhuan downstairs to change her clothes."
Huo Jinnan turned to the old patriarch, "There’s still some business at the company."
As soon as he finished speaking, his gaze shifted to Qin Mochuan, "Uncle, I must take my leave first."
Qin Mochuan stood up, walking him to the door, "When you have time, bring Huanhuan and Xiaowei over for a casual meal."
"I’ll invite you another day, Uncle," Huo Jinnan replied, straightening his tie with his long fingers before reaching out to open the passenger side door, his eyes landing on Che Huan.
Che Huan looked at Qin Mochuan and smiled sweetly, speaking gracefully and aptly, "Uncle, I’m really sorry about today. Another day, Jinnan and I will personally apologize to you."
"Not at all, it’s my lack of consideration," Qin Mochuan said with a smile, watching them leave. Recalling the information sold to him by the Huo Family patriarch, his eyes suddenly turned dark and sinister.
Huo Jinnan, now it’s time to see whether you choose this woman or your own mother.
He believed an answer would come soon!
Thus, he stood at the entrance of the hotel, watched for a while, and then returned to the banquet, noticing that Qin Moting was lost in thought. "Little brother, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Qin Moting massaged his temples, "It’s nothing."
He stood up, looking at Qin Family’s old master and the old madam, "Dad, Mom, I’m not feeling well, I’ll go to a guest room to rest for a bit."
Upon hearing this, Qin Mochuan immediately summoned a waiter, "Take the fourth master to rest and make sure to take good care of him."
Qin Shaojin watched from the side, his gaze landing on Qin Shaonan. With the uncle having no heirs, the Qin Family’s assets needed a new successor. Uncle valued the second brother’s abilities, yet the third uncle coveted that position and wanted to insert himself into it.
Now, taking Fang Tong as an adopted daughter, with the covert support of the Huo Family patriarch and the Gu Family, and trying to leverage Huo brother’s financial power, the plan seemed perfect!
Only...
Thinking of Gu Jizhou who should be in a police car by now, he played with the stemmed glass in his hand, noticing that the Huo Family patriarch received a phone call and his expression soured. Squinting his eyes, he smiled.
The Huo Family patriarch clenched his walking stick tightly and glanced at Uncle Guan.
Uncle Guan leaned in.
The patriarch asked in a low voice, "How did the matter go?"
"The people of Qin third uncle just told me, it’s all been taken care of."
