Chapter 21 She's Not That Skilled

Pei Xi's expression was indifferent, her attitude was indifferent, and her face was calm: "When you grow up, it will be a matter of time before you get married. Huo Yi at least really likes you."

Zhou Shu smiled mockingly, but said nothing.

But she never really liked Huo Yi, and at first, she didn't want to drag him into trouble.

Huo Yi is innocent. Even though he is a playboy, he has nothing to do with her.

If you want to blame, then blame Huo Yi, he is from the Huo family, otherwise, they would not be involved.

But before they got married, news of Mr. Huo's sudden death came out.

All the families who are good friends with the Huo family will naturally come, and the Pei family will come even more.

Everyone was dressed in black, and there were many guests. Even Chu Yunting and Li Shichuan, who were busy at work, came.

On the day of the funeral, the sky was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and the clouds were so dense that not even a little light could get through. The wind blew in, giving it a bit of a chill.

Zhou Shu and Huo Yi's marriage has been decided. She is now Huo Yi's fiancée, so she naturally stands by Huo Yi's side.

On the other side of her was Huo Yunling.

They hadn't seen each other for a long time, and Zhou Shu had nothing to say.

Ever since Huo Yunling hooked up with Li Jinyan last time, Zhou Shu had fallen into a cold war with her.

Although Huo Yunling never came close to Li Jinyan since then, Zhou Shu still cared.

Whether she threw herself into Li Jinyan's arms or showed her love to Li Jinyan, Zhou Shu was concerned about everything.

She once found it ridiculous for some anti-girlfriend jokes on the Internet, but she never thought that such a day would happen to her.

She hates betrayal the most, and no betrayal deserves to be forgiven!
The funeral went on in an orderly manner.

Huo Yunling suddenly said: "You deserve it!"

Zhou Shu naturally heard it and turned around in confusion.

The eyes of the people around him were cold and filled with resentment.

What Huo Jingtong did to her in the past few years left Huo Yunling with only hatred in her heart.

She does not have the blood of the Huo family flowing in her body, she is just an orphan without any relatives, and she is also the canary raised by Huo Jingtong.

Even if she is in the Huo family, even if she is the eldest lady of the Huo family.

But she just looks like a eldest lady. In the Huo family, she is even humbler than a servant.

No one in the Huo family cares about her or wants to care about her. Huo Jingtong decides whether she lives or dies.

Huo Jingtong has tortured her for so many years, who in the Huo family doesn't know?But no one will care.

Now she is just a spectator watching indifferently.

Since the Huo family doesn't care about her, she won't care about the Huo family either.

……

At the end of the funeral.

Only a few families that had close contact with the Huo family were still there.

Chu Yunting and Li Jinyan were in the small courtyard outside the door.

"Second brother, Zhou Shu and Huo Yi's marriage has been decided, what are you going to do?" Chu Yunting asked again.

They had already spread the news about Zhou Shu and Huo Yi, fearing that the whole capital would know about it.

Mr. Huo was in poor health, so everyone wanted to celebrate while the old man was still there.

I didn't expect to leave so suddenly.

"What does it have to do with me?" Li Jinyan sneered, as if nothing had happened between him and Zhou Shu.

He is not a child anymore. He would be shameless for Zhou Shu, but he would not go that far.

Zhou Shu is not worthy either.

Chu Yunting hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Are you really planning to break it off?"

"I will take care of it." Li Jinyan frowned, a little irritated, but his tone remained calm.

"Zhou Shu is like a time bomb. I'm afraid she will hurt you." Chu Yunting's eyes were full of worry.

Li Jinyan only curled his lips and looked disdainful: "She doesn't have that ability."

He has more confidence in himself and will never give up everything for Zhou Shu.

At the same time, Huo Yi, not far away, took Zhou Shu to discuss the engagement.

Zhou Shu was in a irritable mood and didn't even want to deal with him anymore.

Standing not far away, he looked into Li Jinyan's eyes.But he didn't notice that Li Shichuan was standing between the two of them.

He was carefully watching everything happening around him.

After Mr. Huo passed away, the Huo family was naturally taken care of by Huo Jingtong. From now on, everyone in the Huo family will have to survive under his hands.

The funeral ended soon, and next came the engagement party between Zhou Shu and Huo Yi.

For the Huo family, getting engaged to Zhou Shu has long been a certainty.

So the engagement banquet had been prepared early in the morning, and now that it's on the agenda, it doesn't take much time.

Pei Xi was not satisfied with the betrothal gift Huo Yi sent to the Pei family that day.

Huo Yi continued intermittently, adding seven or eight billion worth of things sent over.

The total must be at least one billion.

Even though the Pei and Huo families were wealthy families in the capital, they might have given so many betrothal gifts, but they were very few, which shows how sincere Huo Yi was.

Half a month later, it was their engagement party. Zhou Shu really couldn't escape because Pei Xi was staring at her too closely.

It just so happened that the engagement party was on Huo Yi's birthday.

Coincidentally, Li Shichuan and Huo Yi's birthdays only differed by three days.

Huo Yi is younger than Li Shichuan, and Zhou Shu is one year younger than both of them.

In fact, she and Huo Yi have just reached the legal age for marriage.

The Huo family almost gave Zhou Shu the highest-level engagement banquet, which made both families look happy.

But Zhou Shu had a clear mind. If it weren't for Huo Yi's liking, she wouldn't be able to get such respect.

If one day Huo Yi changes her mind, she will be nothing in the Huo family.

As a man, sincerity is always changing.

in the dressing room.

No matter how reluctant Zhou Shu was, she still put on the wedding dress that Huo Yi had chosen.

She already had a good face, and the makeup artist painted her with exquisite makeup. She looked even more pure and flawless against the pure white wedding dress.

"The little mole on Miss Zhou's eyebrow is really in the right place." The makeup artist sighed.

Zhou Shu caressed: "What do you mean?"

"Old people say that this kind of mole is called a beauty mark. Only lucky people can have this kind of mole. Miss Zhou is so beautiful and will soon marry into a wealthy family to enjoy the blessings. She is indeed blessed."

The makeup artist meant some blessing.

But after hearing this, Zhou Shu's eyes dimmed, and she stared at herself in the mirror.

Suddenly he spoke with a hint of mockery: "Then why don't I give you this blessing? Do you want it?"

The makeup artist never expected that Zhou Shu would say this, and was stunned for a moment.

He quickly regained his composure: "Ms. Zhou, please stop making fun of us. We are different from you."

"Let's put on makeup!" Zhou Shu closed his eyes and stopped talking.

As for the staff in the room, no one said anything, they just concentrated on doing their own thing.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door. It was Huo Yunling.

Zhou Shu opened his eyes and saw Huo Yunling in the makeup mirror.

She couldn't help but be a little surprised that Huo Yunling would come to see her today.

What surprised Zhou Shu even more was...

Today she is wearing men's clothes. She is already very tall, nearly 1.7 meters [-], so wearing this white suit is not too weird.

Coupled with the fact that she has a royal face, this suit has a different flavor to her.

Zhou Shu's eyes moved slightly. She remembered what Huo Yunling said to her.

If Zhou Shu were to get married one day, she would not be her bridesmaid.

She was to attend as the best man and accompany her all the way to the wedding.

Huo Yunling walked straight behind Zhou Shu, and two faces appeared in the mirror.

Two people with completely different styles, but they somehow match each other.

"So what exactly did you want to do that day?"
