Chapter 365: She’s My Girlfriend
Huo Wanwan’s tone was sweet, but the mockery behind her words was obvious to anyone with ears.
Quan Jue’s gaze turned cold, and his aura turned icy.
Before he could flare up, Chi Jiao reached out and gently pulled his fingertips.
She wanted him to let her handle it.
It was better for men not to interfere in women’s affairs.
“Your words are truly entertaining. You mean I can’t visit the Meng family if I’m not attending the banquet?” Chi Jiao asked in return.
Seeing that she was going to challenge her personally, Quan Jue didn’t stop her. He stood silently beside her and glanced at Huo Chongjin coldly.
He suddenly felt that their collaboration would end today.
“Of course. Otherwise, does Miss think that anyone can enter the Meng family just because they want to? Young Master Quan, this miss is here to look for you. She can’t be your girlfriend, right?” Huo Wanwan deliberately belittled Chi Jiao to the ground so that she could make Quan Jue feel embarrassed.
Other than being a little prettier than her, how could such a little girl be worthy of him?
The gossipy souls of the media reporters were all hooked as they looked at Quan Jue.
Quan Jue held Chi Jiao’s hand tightly without hesitation and interlocked their fingers. “She’s my girlfriend.”
He answered quickly and without hesitation as if he couldn’t wait to announce to the world that she was his.
The flashes instantly appeared as the cameras captured the loving scene between the two.
Chi Jiao’s heartbeat couldn’t help but accelerate as her petite face turned an intoxicating shade of red, eliciting another round of flashes.
Huo Wanwan watched this scene with hidden jealousy.
Only then did she realize that the media had not focused their attention on her since Chi Jiao’s appearance.
This feeling of disparity made Huo Wanwan even angrier, and her tone couldn’t help but turn cold. “Young Master Quan’s taste sure is special. Speaking of which, this miss has yet to explain herself. Since you’re not here to attend the banquet, why did you come?”
Standing by the side, Huo Chongjin’s eyes were also filled with coldness as he looked at Chi Jiao.
Clearly, he felt that a young lady like Chi Jiao was not worthy of his attention.
Chi Jiao looked at her indifferently. Just as she was about to answer, Old Master Meng’s voice was heard.
“Jiaojiao, why didn’t you tell us that you were coming? If I knew, I would have asked Uncle He to pick you up.”
Everyone turned around and saw the main host of the banquet. Old Master Meng was sitting in a wheelchair, and he was being pushed over by his eldest son, Meng He.
Huo Wanwan was stunned. Was Old Master Meng talking to Quan Jue’s girlfriend?
“Grandpa Meng, long time no see. Today is Grandpa Meng’s birthday. I wish you the best fortune and longevity.” Chi Jiao smiled sweetly and looked at him gently.
Old Master Meng was so happy that he couldn’t close his mouth.
He had always had a strange temper and usually did not smile. Even when facing the grandchildren of the Meng family, he had never shown such enthusiasm.
This scene stunned the onlookers.
Huo Wanwan and Huo Chongjin looked at each other.
The two of them could almost guess that this young lady’s identity was not simple.
Quan Jue turned to look at Chi Jiao with a deep gaze.
His delicate bun was going to surprise him again.
It wasn’t just Old Master Meng. Even someone like Meng He, who never liked to smile, revealed an amiable smile when he saw Chi Jiao. “Jiaojiao, how long has it been since you arrived? Why didn’t you greet me beforehand so that I could pick you up personally?”
