Chapter 704: She ...... Did you forget?
Following Jiang Weiyang's scandal, it was like a signal that this banquet was completely unpeaceful.
When Murong Qiao went back to find Huo Yichen, he saw a waiter standing next to the other party, who seemed to be holding a certain package in his hand, and the packaging could feel the gorgeousness from a distance.
"Achen?" Murong Qiao walked over and called out to him.
Huo Yichen turned around, and when he saw that it was Murong Qiao coming, he instinctively reached out and stopped her shoulder, and then twisted his eyebrows and looked at the waiter's package and explained.
"I don't know who brought it, but it only says a gift, and there is no signature." He said, staring at the package.
Originally, he didn't want to care about this thing, but the package said that it was for Huo Yichen, and he also wished him a happy birthday today.
The beautiful floral font is paired with a white ribbon, and the dark blue has a slightly shimmering packaging, which makes it difficult to imagine which nobleman it is from.
"Why don't you take it apart?" Murong Qiao proposed. "Maybe it's just carelessness, let's look at the gifts, it should also be a clue to find someone."
Birthdays are always gifts, and it may be that some careless person forgot to sign it.
Seeing this, Huo Yichen also motioned to the waiter to open the package.
But after the gorgeous and exquisite wrapping paper was opened from the outside, the inside was another very unexpected and disgusting thing.
The corpse of a bat, which looked to have recently died, was lying quietly in the box.
"This!" The waiter was startled, but since Huo Yichen was standing in front of him, he still endured his nausea after all, and did not let go and threw the box out.
Murong Qiao probed, only glimpsed a vague black and bat shape, and before he even had time to take a closer look, his eyes were completely obscured by a palm.
"Don't look." Huo Yichen's calm voice came from her ears.
But let Murong Qiao not look at it, Huo Yichen's hand was finally ripped off by Murong Qiao himself, and then she saw clearly what the bat looked like.
I don't know if it's my own delusion, when I saw the bat, even if it wasn't close, Murong Qiao always felt that there was a smell that seemed to float towards him.
In addition to the corpse of a bat that has not died recently, there is also a pattern of a human head, and the line style looks like Greece.
"What is this, bats and ...... Greece? Murong Qiao frowned.
Huo Yichen didn't speak, but glanced at the people around him who had gradually come over, as if they were watching the excitement.
From the moment the waiter exclaimed just now, the other guests noticed the strange situation on Huo Yichen's side, not to mention that Huo Yichen and Murong Qiao, the two focal points of the crowd, gathered together again.
He muttered for a moment, "It's revenge." ”
"Revenge?" Murong Qiao looked at Huo Yichen and repeated what he said.
"Hmm." Huo Yichen nodded and explained softly to Murong Qiao. "In Greek legend, the bat is the vengeful embodiment of the dead, and will return to seek revenge on those he hates."
It was the first time Murong Qiao heard it, and raised his eyebrows to express surprise. "And that kind of statement?"
"It's rare, but—" Huo Yichen pursed his lips, as if thinking. "After I returned to the Huo family, one of the many courses I took was related to this knowledge."
Just when Huo Hong was planning to train him as an heir, during that time, Huo Yichen studied hard every day, and his knowledge was deeply ingrained in his mind.
Revenge?
Murong Qiao looked at the "gift" that didn't seem to be a gift, and put himself in his shoes, If he received such a gift on his birthday-
I can't say it's a little unlucky, it's very unlucky.
Whoever has a good brain, he won't just come up with such a gift.
"You can take it down first." Huo Yichen instructed the waiter.
There are too many suspicious candidates that can be thought of for this gift, and Huo Yichen has no intention of doing these jobs for a while, and the first job now is the banquet.
The waiter hurriedly bowed down and took the gift again in front of everyone.
But this special birthday gift still left an indelible mark in the hearts of everyone at the banquet.
Feeling the strange gazes of the people around him, Huo Yichen took a sip of the red wine in his hand very calmly, and didn't say a word from beginning to end, as if nothing had happened just now.
Seeing this, everyone didn't open their mouths to discuss, after all, this is still in the Huo family.
But when the banquet was about to end, everyone who was preparing to go home one after another, as soon as they got outside and in their cars, they finally couldn't help but open up to chat.
"Who do you say can give Huo Yichen such a big face on today's day?"
"If you want me to say that during this period of time, he has caused countless people in the Huo family, if you really want to get to the bottom of it, it will be too difficult."
"When I don't send it, but at this time, I always feel uneasy, like something is going to happen."
"Let's wait and see for a while......"
Similar discussions appeared one after another among the people who left.
People like gossip, especially these so-called upper-class families, who care about every news of the big guys.
Huo Yichen, as today's master, has such a thing, which undoubtedly makes everyone feel that his majesty is offended.
It didn't take a night, just because people walked out of the banquet for a while, even many people who didn't come to the Huo family knew the news.
At the end of the banquet, Murong Qiao first sent a few brothers away, and then took off the cumbersome and gorgeous dress on his body, and then went to find Huo Yichen.
When she went, the other party was standing in the doorway, still wearing the suit.
Murong Qiao looked at him from behind, watching him fixedly look at the cars leaving, as if he was thoughtful, and finally gently walked around his back and tapped Huo Yichen's shoulder with his hand as a reminder.
"Still thinking about that incident?" She hooked Huo Yichen's arm.
Huo Yichen's tone paused for a moment, "Sort of." ”
It's just that he hasn't come up with anything yet.
What Huo Yichen was thinking more about just now was actually about Murong Qiao and his birthday.
Since Murong Qiao came to the banquet, he hadn't mentioned giving gifts.
Be...... Forgotten?
"Don't think about what you have and don't, let's go out for a walk? One night at the banquet, I felt like my bones were about to fall apart. ”
Murong Qiao made a natural proposal, pretending that he didn't see the loss on Huo Yichen's face.
How could Huo Yichen not agree to her, even though it was already one o'clock in the morning, he still agreed to Murong Qiao's words to go out.
"Then I'll go change my clothes."
Suits aren't for going out for a walk.
Looking at Murong Qiao's casual denim jacket with a snow-white and beautiful little skirt inside, it didn't take long for Huo Yichen to change into a set of clothes that matched Murong Qiao.
The two of them, who have lost their formal clothes, are both walking in denim style, and then standing together, which makes people look at the past at a glance, and even has the appearance of going back to college when they were still a couple.
"I won't drive today-" Murong Qiao took out his spare car keys from his pocket and shook them in his palm.
She drove her own car over this time, so Murong Qiao walked over first, and then followed Huo Yichen's usual way of opening the door for herself, and made the same move.
Huo Yichen saw her so funny, and immediately couldn't cry or laugh, but he still obeyed Murong Qiao's arrangement and sat in the co-pilot.
