Chapter 577: 577, my husband tells me to pay attention to my image outside.
When it became known that Su Yuntang had a remarkable eldest daughter named Su Wanwan, who was also married to Huo Jingshen, the eldest grandson of the Huo Family, who cared whether she was legitimate or not?
Whether it was the relatives of the Su Family, leaders and colleagues at the office, or even some city leaders, everyone took a stand and flattered them.
Qiao Zixin had absolutely no chances of getting close to them.
However…
Seeing the triumphant smile on Su Wanwan’s face, a spark quickly flashed in Qiao Zixin’s eyes.
Soon enough, you won’t be laughing anymore.

“Wanwan, Mr. Ho.”
About ten minutes later, Qiao Zixin finally got a chance to chat with her parents.
Huo Jingshen nodded slightly, and also greeted each one of them.
Su Wanwan laughed and said, “Cousin, you look so beautiful today.”
Su Yuntang’s celebratory and family dinner, the protagonist was Su Yuntang, but Qiao Zixin wore a red formal dress, with all kinds of jewelry hanging on her body, practically blinding everyone.
Earrings, necklace, bracelet, sparkled.
Did she think this was her own beauty pageant?
“Wanwan, you’re teasing me.” Qiao Zixin blushed, and as she spoke, she couldn’t help but look at Huo Jingshen.
Su Wanwan saw it and couldn’t suppress her scorn.
She clung to her husband’s arm, leaned on him, lifted her face, and said in a coquettish voice, “Husband, I’m a bit tired, what should I do?”
She indeed was a bit tired.
She had been forcing a smile at the Su Family, and didn’t expect more of Su Yuntang’s colleagues and leaders here, and she was laughing so much that it hurt her cheeks.
Huo Jingshen lowered his head and looked at the young girl leaning on him.
His thin lips curved slightly, he put down his glass, “I’ll take you upstairs to rest.”
“You don’t need to, you stay with grandfather, I’ll go by myself.” Su Wanwan refused.
If you’re always by my side, how can some people reveal their true intentions?
Jiang Yi quickly said, “Wanwan, let Aunt Yang take you to the rest room.”
“Okay, thank you Auntie.” Su Wanwan sweetly replied.
Huo Jingshen looked at the young girl again and frowned slightly.
But Jiang Yi was very happy.
All along, Su Wanwan had never given her a good face, but today, she was surprisingly accommodating, giving her face both at home and now at the venue.
She promptly called in the servant, “Aunt Yang, please take the young lady to the designated rest room.”
“Yes, madam,” she answered.
Once the two of them left, Qiao Zixin didn’t stay long in the hall and said, “Mom, I am going to the restroom.”
“Okay.”
**
The rooms were on the fifth floor, Su Yuntang had booked several suites, and from the looks of it, he attached great importance to today’s celebration, all the rooms booked were high-end.
“Miss, I will go downstairs first.”
“Wait a minute, Aunt Yang.” Su Wanwan suddenly stopped her, “Can you keep an eye on my cousin during dinner?”
“Miss, what do you mean?”
“All the guests here tonight are VIPs. My cousin likes to drink and tends to make a scene when she is drunk…”
She didn’t have to complete her sentence for Aunt Yang to understand, “Alright, I will keep an eye out.”
“Thank you, Aunt Yang.”
As she left the room, Aunt Yang could not help but admire in her heart.
The gentleman does not like Miss, but the Miss is always considering things for him, fearing that tonight’s celebration would be ruined, she even noticed the small matter of her cousin’s lack of control when drunk.
Ah, the young miss really is filial.

Su Wanwan laid down on the bed to rest for a while.
She had lunch at Jiangnan Restaurant with the Huo family today, then went back to the Su Family, and now is at Huashang accompanying Huo Jingshen in his duties. To be honest, she was really exhausted both mentally and physically.
Just before she fell asleep, there was a knock on the door.
Su Wanwan deliberately did not open the door, and then her phone rang.
She glanced at it, it was indeed Qiao Zixin.
She had to answer it.
“Cousin, what’s up?”
“Wanwan, are you in the 505 rest room?”
“Yes.”
“I’m outside, could you open the door?”
“Oh.”
Su Wanwan put down her phone, put on her clothes, got up, and opened the door.
Qiao Zixin stood outside, smiling brightly.
She was holding two glasses of red wine in her hand, and as she entered the room, she handed one of them to Su Wanwan, “Wanwan, come, let’s have a drink.”
Su Wanwan looked at the red wine in front of her and smiled, “Cousin, my husband doesn’t allow me to drink today.”
Qiao Zixin was taken aback, “Why?”
“Because I don’t handle my alcohol well. My husband said I should be mindful of my image in public, I can’t embarrass the Huo Family.”
Qiao Zixin laughed dryly, “Having a little shouldn’t be a problem, is it? It’s Chinese New Year after all. Besides, red wine can beautify your complexion, it’s good for women. I remember you used to enjoy drinking, didn’t you? One glass won’t get you drunk.”
This damn girl is actually worried about her image?
Pretending to be well-behaved?
Well, considering there are so many elders from the Su and Jiang families present, of course she would want to be on her best behavior. Otherwise, if she embarrassed the Huo Family, she might even lose her position as the daughter-in-law of the Huo Family.
“Cousin, as you said, that was in the past. Now, I am the daughter-in-law of the Huo Family. Every move I make represents the image of the Huo Family.”
Qiao Zixin: “…”
“There are so many elders here today. My husband has told me to behave well and receive more red envelopes, and absolutely not let drinking cause any trouble.”
Qiao Zixin again: “…”
Her smile was awkward but still polite.
Suddenly, she felt nauseous.
The daughter-in-law of the Huo Family, huh?
Every movement represents the image of the Huo Family, huh?
Fine.
Qiao Zixin lifted the glass of wine to her mouth and took a sip, then said, “In that case, I will not force you to drink.”
Persuading her further would likely be too conspicuous and expose her intentions.
“I’ll go downstairs first and won’t bother you resting.”
“Okay.”
With that, Qiao Zixin turned around and exited with the two glasses of red wine.
Su Wanwan quietly followed and watched her from behind the door.
As expected, Qiao Zixin slipped into a restroom only a few steps down the hallway.
Su Wanwan smirked internally.
Entering the restroom with a glass of red wine?
The fox is showing its tail. She was sure, that glass of wine must have been spiked!
Perhaps she put in the aphrodisiac she tried to give her at the club last time!
Daring to drug her for the second time, her nerve is really not small, trying to purposefully cause a scandal on such a grand occasion?
Su Wanwan laughed coldly, determined to go all out, she went straight ahead and waited at the restroom door.
Soon, the restroom door opened. Qiao Zixin came out holding two empty wine glasses, coming face-to-face with Su Wanwan, who was looking down at her phone.
Without exaggerating, the look on her face was that of pure fright, akin to seeing a ghost.
Su Wanwan lifted her head, innocently asking her, “Cousin, why are you bringing wine glasses to the restroom?”
Her gaze fell on the wine glasses.
“Oh, I had a sudden stomachache.” Qiao Zixin recovered quickly, “Wanwan, what are you doing here?”
Su Wanwan gave a sweet smile, “A friend was asking me about my internship. I’ll give her a call and then head downstairs.”
“Mm,” replied Qiao Zixin, “Then, I’ll go downstairs first.”
“Go ahead.” Having said that, Su Wanwan dialed a number and put the phone to her ear, “Weiyi, didn’t I tell you? There’s no salary for the internship because we haven’t graduated yet.”
Mo Weiyi was confused, “What are you talking about?”
“No wonder they call you a little princess who lives outside of the real world. You’ll know when you have your own internship, silly kid haha.”
Mo Weiyi continued to be perplexed, “What on earth are you talking about?”
As Qiao Zixin walked away and listened, she finally let out a sigh of relief.
This damn girl, appearing and disappearing like a ghost, she almost got scared to death.
Fortunately, she didn’t reveal any weakness.
**
The celebratory feast officially began at seven o’clock that night.
Su Wanwan sat next to Huo Jingshen, without exaggeration, the dinner was exhausting.
One moment an elder was toasting, the next moment a leader was toasting.
She hardly had time to eat a few bites, as she was busy offering smiles with a glass of cola in hand.
She didn’t know most of the people, and besides smiling, she didn’t have much else to say. After several rounds, her cheeks were sore from straining.
But Jiang Yi’s relatives were exceptionally enthusiastic, and she couldn’t fend them off. Every time they toasted, they insisted on drinking double, using all sorts of excuses, making themselves at home.
Surprisingly, Huo Jingshen seemed quite amiable today, having had quite a lot of the toasts.
Even Su Yuntang was somewhat impressed.
He had always held a grudge against this son-in-law. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Firstly, because of Huo Jingshen’s status as the eldest grandson of the Huo family, even as an elder, he didn’t dare to command him.
Secondly, because Huo Jingshen had previously put one over the Su family, he always felt that this young man was calm and collected on the surface but was actually… incredibly pretentious and arrogant!
