Chapter 25

Father Shen stroked his reading glasses, looked at Shen Manxi's joyful face, and couldn't help but chuckled, "I've never heard you praise anyone in front of me since I was a child, why did the sun come out from the west today?"

"No." Shen Manxi slid the wheelchair over and took his hand, "I just thought that Yu Xiao and I were married not long ago, so I really missed you so much, so I mentioned it to you. "

Father Shen glanced at Huo Yuxiao who was standing behind her. Although he didn't lessen his prejudice against him, compared with He Shaoxuan, he was not so annoying.

"I'm afraid that my aunt has other thoughts about me, so there's no need for it."

Shen Manxi subconsciously glanced at Huo Yuxiao next to him, quickly took his father's hand and laughed and denied, "Dad, look at what you said. It's a mistake for Yuxiao to be filial to you. It hurts him to hear it."

"Are you afraid that he will be sad, are you not afraid that I will feel uncomfortable when I see something I shouldn't? Knowing that I miss you on weekdays, you still praise him so much for his filial piety and no rules!"

Father Shen lightly tapped Shen Manxi's forehead with his hand slightly resentful, but he wasn't really angry.

Shen Manxi rubbed her forehead, knowing what her father was thinking, she turned around and motioned for Huo Yuxiao to bring up the gift, "I know you miss me, so Yuxiao sent me here right away. He said he didn't forget to bring a gift when he said he was visiting you." , a good uncle like him, shouldn't he be praised?"

Hearing what she said, Father Shen opened the purple gift box.

Seeing that it was filled with fine nectar and jade wine in a red crystal bottle, the ginseng floating inside seemed to be quite old, so the age of the wine was naturally not too bad.

On weekdays, he loves drinking the most, but Mrs. Nai He refuses to let him, and always takes care of him.

Closing the lid of the gift box quickly, he looked slightly unnatural, "Why do you send this kind of thing away, I'm not..."

"Dad, this isn't wine. It's a tonic that I asked someone to make with more than 100 rare medicinal materials. It's good for your strong body."

Interrupting his words, Huo Yuxiao faced him with a gracious manner, helping him cover up the past, and let his heart be expressed.

Father Shen watched him move his eyes slightly, and he changed his mind a bit, "Since you have the heart, then I will accept it. The family banquet is ready, you and Man Xi can go and sit down."

He stood up, pretending not to care, and asked the servant to come and take the bottle of agar jade wine, but he kept staring at it from the corner of his eye.

Huo Yuxiao noticed that her thin lips curved slightly, and when she pushed Shen Manxi to his side, she took out a small red jade bottle from her pocket.

"Father-in-law, I usually keep the wine here. You can drink it anytime you want, and it's not easy to be found. It's just right for you."

After speaking in a low voice, Huo Yuxiao tapped his cane and walked towards the dining table with Shen Manxi.

Father Shen looked at the small red jade bottle in his hand, it looked like a pendant, it could be held in his hand, and the carving was exquisite to the extreme, it looked like an antique, and it had this function, Huo Yuxiao really had a heart.

Looking at Huo Yuxiao who was groping to pull a chair for his daughter in the distance, his eyes darkened. Maybe he should change his mind about this uncle...

Soon, the family banquet began and everyone was seated.

Shen Manxi looked at his father, found the right time, and tentatively said to him, "Dad, how are the company's recent projects going? Is there anything else I can help with?"

"You seldom ask about the affairs of the company. Why, the hospital doesn't need you to go out now?"

Shen's father picked up some food and put it on Shen's mother's plate, but she looked sleepy and had no appetite.

Shen Manxi smiled, "No, just ask casually. If I'm really busy, I can help you."

"Nothing to be courteous, you must be asking me to do something for you, just tell me."

Shen Manxi is his daughter. Since she came back, she has been speaking for Huo Yuxiao. She has all the thoughts on her face. How could he not see it?
Shen Manxi smiled embarrassedly and stirred the spoon twice, "Actually, it's not a big deal, I just want you to discuss business cooperation with Yu Xiao and help him consolidate his position in the Huo family."

With a snap, Father Shen slapped the chopsticks on the table, looked at Shen Manxi, "You married him privately, I didn't blame you anymore, it's already very enlightened. Now you still want me to use the power of the Shen family to help him Consolidate your position, are you crazy?"

Knowing that her father would object, Shen Manxi kept praising Huo Yuxiao to him since entering the door, but the result was still the same.

"Dad, since I'm married to Yu Xiao, isn't it normal for you to help him stabilize his position? Back then, you promised to help He Shaoxuan strengthen the He family, why is it not Yu Xiao's turn?"

"It was because of that mistake that made you a joke in Shengjing. Now that you are marrying him... who has no real power, how can I make another mistake?"

Father Shen stopped talking suddenly and didn't say that Huo Yuxiao was blind, which was already saving face, but he still couldn't promise to use the power of the Shen family to help this uncle.

Shen Manxi frowned, looked at her mother, and wanted her to speak for herself.

But Shen's mother is now focused on Lin Qianqian. She always feels that Lin Qianqian got hurt again.

Shen Manxi had no choice but to turn her attention to her brother Shen Jingyu.

Shen Jingyu is a mad devil protecting his sister. He didn't want Shen Manxi to be in trouble, so he tentatively tried to persuade his father, "I think my little sister is right. She's already married to Huo Yuxiao. If Huo Yuxiao doesn't hurry up and stabilize the real power in the Huo family, I'm afraid that the younger sister will suffer along with her."

He had to be his own brother, and he hit the nail on the head with his words.

Father Shen was also a little shaken when he heard that his daughter would suffer from her husband's family.

Huo Yuxiao also fumbled for the wine glass at the right time, and said to him, "Father-in-law, if I'm lucky enough to have your support, I will give you the maximum profit I get, and I will bear all the risks, and I will never let you suffer. "

Seeing his sincerity, and his daughter watching eagerly, Father Shen picked up the wine glass, clinked the glass with him reluctantly, and agreed to him.

Huo Yuxiao was not rude, and asked Lu Ran to come up with the agreement that had been drawn up long ago.

After asking Shen's father to sign a cooperation contract with him, he took the initiative to transfer his recent financial project with good returns to Shen's father as a gift for his agreement to cooperate.

Father Shen was gagged by his behavior, dispelled his prejudice and dissatisfaction with him, and ate together quietly.

Only then did Shen Manxi breathe a sigh of relief, she turned her head to look at Huo Yuxiao, kissed him with her foot under the table, and signaled him to do what he should do.

Huo Yuxiao understood, put down his chopsticks and said to Shen's father, "Father-in-law, I see that you and mother-in-law look a bit haggard. It just so happens that I brought a professional medical team to give you two elders a physical examination, so you can feel at ease."
