Gao Qiao obviously believed Ye Yao more. Huo Buyu rolled his eyes.
Ye Yao looked at Huo Buyu and Gao Qiao. Their reactions to her words were different. From their reactions, she could tell that Huo Buyu was the calm and steady type, while Gao Qiao was the carefree type. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
At this point, Gao Qiao suddenly said, âBy the way, Huo Buyu, your grandfatherâs birthday banquet is in a few days, right?â He wanted to say something but hesitated.
Ye Yao keenly sensed something. âWhat about the birthday banquet?â
Huo Buyu raised his eyebrows as well. âGao Qiao tends to hear gossip from unofficial sources. Speak up, what have you heard?â
Gao Qiao glanced at Ye Yao and didnât seem to want to say anything. Ye Yao immediately opened her mouth and was about to lay a curse. When Gao Qiao saw this, he immediately said, âDonât, Iâll say it, alright? I heard that Old Master Huo is going to announce Huo Buyu and Jiang Yun i s engagement at the birthday banquet.â
Ye Yao widened her eyes and jumped up from her seat. She looked at Huo Buyu. âYouâre getting engaged to Jiang Yun?â
Huo Buyu had hugged Ye Yao the moment she jumped up. âWhat are you thinking? I didnât even know about this.â
Gao Qiao said slowly, âMy sources are very reliable. I guess Grandpa Huo didnât tell you and planned to announce it on the day of his birthday banquet. This is also very in line with Grandpa Huoâs domineering and tyrannical personality.â Huo Buyu frowned. Indeed, this wasnât beyond his grandfather.
At this point, Gao Qiao suggested, âWhy not, donât attend your grandfatherâs birthday banquet?â After saying that, he shook his head immediately. âNo, itâs outrageous that you donât even attend your grandfatherâs birthday banquet. But what if your grandfather really doesnât play by the rules and announces your engagement to Jiang Yun without asking for your opinion? What will Ye Yao do then?â
Gao Qiao was focused on what Ye Yao, not Huo Buyu, was going to do. Obviously, he was most concerned about Ye Yao.
Huo Buyu pondered for a while and said, âWeâll have to think of a way.â
âWhy would you need to think of a way!â Ye Yao rubbed her palms together.
âJust bring me to the birthday banquet!â Gao Qiao was surprised. âWhatever for?â
âGatecrash!â the girl exclaimed.
Gao Qiao asked, âHow?â
Ye Yao replied, âWeâll talk about it when the time comes!â
Gao Qiao was speechless.
Huo Buyu was stumped for a moment. In that case, all the more he couldnât bring her along!
The next day, after Huo Buyu and Ye Yao had breakfast, Huo Buyu sent Ye Yao to class as usual. He stopped to drop her at the original intersection. However, Ye Yao suddenly said, âDrive forward and stop me at the school gate. I donât feel like walking today.â
Huo Buyu was stunned for a moment before the smile on his face widened. He said gently, âOkay.â
Huo Buyu drove the car straight to the school gate, and Ye Yao got out of the car openly. Recently, her relationship with Huo Buyu had been rather out in the open. In addition, now that Huo Buyuâs grandfather was causing trouble, Ye Yao felt that it was necessary for her to make her relationship with Huo Buyu public knowledge! Otherwise, she might be labeled as a mistress for no reason! She was clearly his girlfriend!
Many people in the school recognized Huo Buyuâs car, so when they saw Ye Yao getting out of the car, they were stunned. However, they didnât think too deeply about it. They just thought it was strange. Why was Ye Yao getting out of Huo Buyuâs car? Could it be because of Gao Qiao again?
Ye Yao waved at Huo Buyu, who was in the car, and then went to class happily. After Ye Yao walked away, Huo Buyu also drove off, as though he was giving her a lift.
During class, Lin Qingning sat beside Ye Yao and asked curiously, âYe Yao, I heard that you came in Huo Buyuâs car this morning?
Ye Yao nodded. âThatâs right. Many people saw it, right? I think someone posted the photo on the school forum.â
Lin Qingning immediately asked, âWhy did you come to school in Huo Buyuâs car? Do you know Huo Buyu very well? To be honest, are you trying to woo
Huo Buyu through Gao Qiao?â
Ye Yao found it funny. âThatâs right. You saw through me.â
Lin Qingning said, âOf course. After all, Huo Buyu has the status and the looks. No woman can resist him, right?â
When she said this, Lin Qingning sounded a little jealous because she also wanted to pursue Huo Buyu. However, it was difficult for her to run into Huo Buyu, let alone pursue him. But now, Ye Yao could pursue Huo Buyu just because he was related to Gao Qiao. She felt a little uneasy..
