Chapter 79: Endless Surprises

The three left the courtyard and boarded a manor sightseeing shuttle.

The driver was at the front.

Shi Qian sat in the middle while Jiang Ci and Huo Fei sat behind.

The sightseeing shuttle drove slowly in the manor.

Huo Fei pointed at a white building and said, “By the way. A winery is over there. We can go there for wine tasting tonight. The home-brewed wine is especially fragrant and mellow. You must try it.”

“Wine!” Shi Qian recalled her experience of being knocked out in one glass and how Shang Sizhan had told her several times from last night to this morning that she was not allowed to drink.

“Forget about the wine. I don’t drink.”

“Sister Qian, you don’t drink?” Huo Fei was puzzled.

She couldn’t be so shallow.

But she thought about it carefully. She seemed to have never drunk before them.

Jiang Ci didn’t allow her to drink before her coming-of-age ceremony. And they got together less often after the ceremony.

“Yes, I’m allergic to alcohol.” Shi Qian said seriously.

She couldn’t say she had drunk.

“Oh, I see.” After a pause, Huo Fei turned to Jiang Ci. “Brother Ci, do you want to drink?”

Jiang Ci leaned lazily against the back of the chair. “Let’s talk about it tonight.”

Shi Muxue felt tired from walking by the lake, so she said, “Brother Xuan, I’m a little tired. Let’s go back.”

“Alright, I’ll send you back,” Su Jinxuan said gently.

“Yes.” Shi Muxue turned around, and a white sightseeing shuttle attracted her gaze.

Shi Muxue was stunned as he saw the girl in the manor sightseeing shuttle!

‘Shi Qian!

‘Why is she in Huo’s manor?

’What was going on?’

Su Jinxuan saw Muxue didn’t move and fixed her eyes on a white sightseeing shuttle. He asked, “Xue’er, what’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing. I think I saw a classmate,” Shi Muxue replied.

“Classmate! Is she the girl with Young Master Huo on the manor sightseeing shuttle just now?” Su Jinxuan asked.

Shi Muxue turned to look at him in surprise. “What did you say? Who is the man in the car?”

“One of them is the young master of the Huo family, Huo Fei. I don’t know the other one either.” Su Jinxuan replied. He momentarily paused before he continued.

“What’s wrong?”

“Then are you familiar with that Young Master Huo?” Shi Muxue asked.

“The Su family is only close to the third branch of the Huo family. They don’t have any contact with the direct descendants.” Su Jinxuan shook his head.

Huo Fei’s father was the head of the Huo family, so his status was higher. He could not get in touch with a family like the Su family.

“Oh, I see.” Shi Muxue said softly.

“What’s your classmate’s name?” Su Jinxuan asked again. “I know the people from the few families the Huo family invited this time, but this girl doesn’t seem to be from any of them.”

Shi Muxue did not want to say Shi Qian’s name, so she said, “Maybe I was wrong. She couldn’t be here.”

“However, it’s also possible that the manor hired service staff,” Su Jinxuan said.

“There will be a lot of guests at the banquet tomorrow. I heard that the Huo family hired a group of waiters and waitresses from outside.”

“Maybe. Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. Brother Xuan, let’s go back.”

Shi Muxue’s mind was in a mess.

During this time, Shi Qian had constantly given her “surprises”.

The Sheng family’s young master in school, the CEO of Chuangyue, Xu Muchen, and now the Huo family’s young master.

She subconsciously clenched her fists.

‘Shi Qian couldn’t be here to work. Her motive wasn’t simple if she was here to work.

‘Perhaps, she wanted to get to know more rich people this way.

‘This Young Master Huo might be someone she had just met.’

A cold glint flashed across Shi Muxue’s eyes.

She had to do something as soon as possible. She could not let Shi Qian continue being so smug..
