Chasing after marriage and lock love: sweet little sweet wife

Chapter 23 Meeting the Future Mother-in-law
After arriving home, she took a shower, then sat on the sofa, watched a movie to pass the time, and finally fell asleep in a daze.

At around twelve o'clock that night, the door of the house was opened again from the outside, and a tall figure walked in from the outside.

As soon as he entered the door, seeing that the hall light was still on, he couldn't help being startled, his eyes swept around, and soon caught the petite figure curled up sleeping on the sofa.

The girl slept soundly, her long black hair like satin was spread messily on the sofa, most of her cheeks were covered.The loose nightdress set off her exquisite body, and the slightly sloping neckline revealed a bright spring light.

Huo Sijue quietly came to the sofa and squatted down, first to see her sleeping expression.

Her face was peaceful and peaceful, without any danger.

Then, the gaze slowly shifted to her calf.

The white and smooth skin was tightly wrapped with a layer of gauze. Although it couldn't be seen, the wound was at least several centimeters wide.

This girl... I really don't know how to be careful!

A glint of darkness flashed across the bottom of the man's eyes, his gaze was withdrawn from his calf, and returned to her face again.

At this time, Mu Wanzhi suddenly turned over and almost rolled off the sofa.

He quickly reached out to help.

It was smooth in his hand, the girl's skin was like the finest mutton fat jade, the touch was excellent, and his thoughts couldn't help wandering until last night.

Huo Sijue's eyes lost focus for an instant, a dark color appeared in the bottom of his eyes, and his heart was inexplicably hot.

He quickly shook his head to calm himself down, and took a deep breath.

For the sake of her injury, tonight... just let her go!

Thinking, he helped her up, then went into the bedroom and took a blanket out to cover her.After a while, he was about to leave, but before going out, he seemed to take something out of his pocket and put it on the coffee table.

The next day, Mu Wanzhi woke up with an unprecedented blankness on her face.

Because she remembered sleeping on the sofa, but she couldn't remember when she went back to get the blanket.

Could it be that she fell asleep?
Just when he was feeling puzzled, he suddenly saw something on the coffee table and couldn't help but take a look.

It was a beautifully crafted invitation card, with gold lettering on the foundation, clearly stating that she was required to attend a celebrity dinner next weekend. The host of the banquet was Yan Ruyi, who was her... future mother-in-law!

"what?!"

Mu Wanzhi was startled and exclaimed.

What a joke!She hasn't even seen her fiancé's face, is she going to meet her future mother-in-law?
……

Huo's villa.

The two elders of the Huo family just came back from vacation abroad yesterday, and the family of four was having breakfast together this morning.

"I heard that the project with Haiyue Group has been negotiated? Thanks to you, Sijue." Mr. Huo seemed very happy.

After all, it was the Huo family who had been talking about the case for two years, and he didn't discuss it personally before.Unexpectedly, it was done within two months after it was handed over to his son. He was really relieved.

"It's nothing. It's just a matter of time before the case is settled. I just brought it up earlier." Huo Sijue responded lightly, his face calm.

"Being early means that you are better than your father."

Mrs. Huo spoke from the side, looking at her son with pride.

The younger sister, Huo Xinyan, hummed beside her: "Brother is great at work, but he doesn't like how he sees women! I heard that you even gave the invitation to the dinner party held by your mother to that woman?"

Huo Sijue frowned and glanced coldly: "She is your future sister-in-law, please pay attention to your wording."

"No! Who wants her to be my sister-in-law."

Huo Xinyan snorted coldly, looking a little willful.

Mrs. Huo also looked at him with some reproach: "You said that your child is real, and you usually urge you to get married, but you ignore it, but now you have fallen in love with one, and you don't discuss it with your parents. At least Let her meet with me first, and you've made up your mind..."

"She will live with me in the future. Didn't Mom say that it's more important to see yourself right?" Huo Sijue gently interrupted his mother's chatter.

Mrs. Huo was at a loss for words for a while.

It was true that she said such things at the beginning, but at that time she thought that her son was interested in the kind of well-known ladies who had a common topic with him, so she agreed with him to choose by himself.

Who knew that he doesn't like delicacies from mountains and seas, but prefers porridge and side dishes?
"Okay, since Si Jue has given you the invitation card, it means that he wants you to meet that girl. It shouldn't be too far behind if he can fall in love with him."

At this time, Mr. Huo stood up to act as a peacemaker, and by the way, he gave his wife a wink, signaling her not to provoke her son.

Huo Xinyan glanced at her mouth, but didn't dare to say anything.

The closer the weekend was, the more nervous Mu Wanzhi became.

There is no other reason, it is because of the damn dinner party!
She really couldn't figure it out, how could that man suddenly invite her to a dinner party when he was so good-looking!
She has neither a dress nor the extra money to buy an outfit. If she wears casually, it would be a shame to go there.

So, in the past few days, she was looking forward to it day and night, hoping that the man would come again.Unexpectedly, that man seemed to have evaporated and never appeared again.

……

In a blink of an eye, it's the weekend.

That night, at eight o'clock, Mu Wanzhi went to the banquet alone.

The venue for the dinner was the only six-star hotel in Ning City.

There was a lot of wine and wine in the banquet hall, and the people who came to participate were all the ladies and ladies of the upper class, wearing all kinds of fancy clothes and elegant manners, and the host of this party——Yan Ruyi, was surrounded by all the stars. .

"Mrs. Huo, you really look younger and younger. Standing with Miss Huo, those who don't know think they are sisters."

"Isn't it true that Ms. Huo is so beautiful, there must be a lot of outstanding young people chasing after her?"

"Introduce my son to you another day?"

The Huo family is the top wealthy family in Ning City, and many ladies are busy building a good relationship with Yan Ruyi.The more people there are, the more lively the scene will be.

Yan Ruyi responded one by one with a smile, finally took a breath, and heard her precious daughter complaining next to her, "It's a good party for celebrities, and they make it look like a blind date meeting, it's really boring."

After finishing the words, there was a gentle low laugh from the side: "Sister Xinyan is a little beauty, so everyone is rushing to have it."

"No wonder! Sister Manxi is the goddess that everyone is rushing for. Compared with you, I am nothing compared to you." Huo Xinyan retorted with her lips curled up.

"Okay, both of you are not bad, don't argue." Yan Ruyi smiled and looked at the two of them with gentle eyes, "Manxi, I really worked hard tonight, please help me greet the guests who have been here for so long."

"Auntie, don't say that, I'm idle anyway." Lu Manxi shook her head and said modestly.

Yan Ruyi looked at Lu Manxi and felt very satisfied.

What a beautiful girl, well-behaved, sensible and caring, with good conditions in all aspects, she is really a perfect candidate for a daughter-in-law!
