Pampered by Short-Lived Bigshot-Chapter 743 - 458 Master Huo Declares Sovereignty: Tiger and Wolf Words Confirm Relationship (3 updates)_2
Huo Qinqi had always been so blunt that it annoyed people, and this was something the Jiang brothers and Qi Zeyan knew all too well. However, other people only knew of his capability without understanding his manner of handling things. Therefore, his next words...
completely set off an explosion at the event.
Huo Qinqi’s eyes and brows were stern, his expression so indifferent that it was maddening, completely unaware of the sensational effect his words would cause.
"The person who picks her up and drops her off from work every day is me."
"The man who visits her home is also me."
His voice was low and bone-chillingly cold.
...
After a brief and eerie silence from the crowd, suddenly a burst of exclamations erupted.
"Damn!!! Is he crazy? What did Mr. Huo just admit?"
"He’s so busy, and he’s driving her to and from work? Did I hear that wrong? I must be deaf."
Everyone doubted their own ears...
"You heard right, he even admitted going into her house."
"So, Mr. Huo and Miss Shen, then the Jiang Family..."
As everyone instinctively looked towards Jiang Jinsang, Tang Wan, though surprised deep down, did not show too much on her face. Even her breathing became hurried, her palms sweating profusely. She suddenly grabbed Jiang Jinsang, "Brother Five?"
Just as people looked towards them, Jiang Jinsang casually glanced around, his lips usually curled with slight laughter, but the smile vanished briefly...
and was replaced by an extreme chill.
Terrified, the crowd fell silent, not daring to speculate any further as the large event venue, after a brief and intense shake, instantly returned to a state where you could hear a pin drop.

It was at this moment that someone else dropped a deep-sea bomb.
Huo Qinqi’s voice was cold and firm:
"If she has any other lovers..."
"It’s probably also me."
Shen Shuci blinked:
The idea of Huo Qinqi stepping forward to help her was something any woman would fantasize about, a man riding a colorful auspicious cloud to shield her from all storms, but under these circumstances...
Why would he say these things openly?
"Huo Qinqi." Shen Shuci rarely called his full name.
"What’s wrong?" Huo Qinqi turned to look at her, his tone much softer.
Even his expression was totally different from when he faced Liang Wenzhong.
Anyone could see...
that these two definitely had a secret relationship, and it wasn’t just a matter of a day or two.
"Don’t say..." Shen Shuci was going insane.
Just what inflammatory words had she used? This was too easy to misunderstand; they clearly weren’t in that kind of relationship, yet looking at everyone’s expressions, most likely they thought those two had done everything except officially registering.
She instinctively looked over at Tang Wan, who seemed calm, but couldn’t hide the surprise in her eyes.
"What did I say wrong?" Huo Qinqi countered.
"..." Shen Shuci was speechless; it wasn’t that anything was said wrong, it’s just that this way of speaking was...
"If I spoke incorrectly, you can tell me."
Shen Shuci remained silent.
Everyone: "..."
Damn, the principal admitted it, this is all true!
Confirmed!

Meanwhile, at the Jiang Mansion, everyone was frantically anxious, completely unaware of what was happening at the scene.
Just when the Huo family appeared on stage, the media present at the scene had completely stopped their reports. Given the special identity of the Huo family, they really couldn’t be covered casually in the news—no reports, no photos, nothing.
What happened on site was unknown to outsiders.
The elders of the Shen Family were even more clueless...
Someone had already declared sovereignty, taking their daughter under his wing.
"I’ve tried calling and messaging Yanting and the others, but there’s no reply, I don’t know what’s happening? There’s no news at all." Fan Mingyu frowned.
Just now, during the charity event, everyone’s phones were on silent.
The event hadn’t ended, and with one event after another unfolding, everyone was dazzled and shaken. Who had the mind to make calls or send messages?
"Don’t worry, the Huo Family will definitely not harm Shuci," Fan Mingyu assured her best friend with confidence.
But as time dragged on without any news, and darkness fell, they couldn’t help but worry...
Meanwhile, at the event, Huo Qinqi looked again at Liang Wenzhong, "Mr. Liang, so the person you described as licentious and shameless...who might that be?"
"Could it be that what you see as normal interactions appear to you as despicable and contemptible behavior?"
"Or does it prove the saying..."
"Those who are filthy themselves see others as dirty too?"
Huo Qinqi’s words were indeed blunt...
Absolutely ruthless, absolutely vicious.
Normal interactions...
Interactions!
Well, hearing this, everyone was stunned and at a loss for what to do.
"So, Shen Shuci is Master Huo’s girlfriend?"
"The Huo couple is here, and they seldom are in Beijing, while both of Shen’s parents haven’t left; it seems like they’re waiting for Master Huo to return to discuss the marriage."
People’s ability to assume was top-notch; they already started imagining the couple at the point of meeting each other’s parents and discussing marriage.
"Is this going to be a marriage within the family?"
"But then, wouldn’t Master Huo become the uncle-in-law of Fifth Master?"
...
Jiang Jinsang twiddled his fingers; he had hypnotized himself for too long. Ever since Shen Shuci mentioned she had a cat at home, he started to build mental defenses, and after the huge shock, he finally calmed down completely.
Qi Zeyan, initially sitting next to him, slightly shifted away!
Damn, there was a murderous aura, a very strong murderous aura—
Jiang Jinsang stared intently at the person on stage; his expression was usual, his eyes icy, completely undisturbed, not even aware of the waves his words might cause in Beijing.
All over the Beijing circle, many were eyeing the Huo Family; marrying a man like this, even without love, at least he was responsible and she wouldn’t suffer in this lifetime...
Among the families close to the Huo Family, only the Jiang Family had a girl, Jiang Shuyan, but she’s already... If looking further, Jiang Jinsang’s uncle’s family had a cousin, but she was still studying and too young.
All in all, there shouldn’t be any other women around Huo Qinqi, so many were watching the Huo Family.
But they had no way to get close, and he was hardly ever in Beijing.
However...
He was already another person’s man now!
The Liang Family originally thought the Huo Family came to support them, but now...
They were here for their future daughter-in-law!
They had brought a calamity upon themselves; what could be more heart-wrenching than this.
Elder Liang breathed frantically, already devastated by this unexpected twist.
It was over...
The Liang Family was thoroughly doomed.
They had hoped to intimidate the Jiang Family using the Huo Family, but... the biggest plague and threat were not the Jiang Family at all!
From start to finish, they had guarded against the wrong person.
And this wolf, he had personally brought into the house.
Sudden anger surged up, Elder Liang felt a darkness before his eyes, Shuci’s figure swaying; he wanted to grab her, explain something, or even plead for them to spare Liang Han...
It was all debt, all retribution—
"Cough, cough—" The elder coughed violently twice, his eyes rolled back, and he passed out.
"Dad, dad—" Dong Yunxiu exclaimed, Liang Wenzhong hurried over, and the doctor on standby rushed to provide aid, directing to immediately carry him to the car and take him to the nearest hospital for emergency treatment.
The whole stage was instantly plunged into chaos again...
"Let’s go," Liang Yun said, smiling as she grabbed Shen Shuci’s hand, "Have you been scared recently?"
Shen Shuci: "..."
This friendliness was warm, but her relationship with Huo Qinqi...was not like that yet.
She always felt that the development of this situation was strange.
Huo Qinqi always felt a burning gaze on him, like a thorn in his back; looking along the gaze, he met Jiang Jinsang’s eyes...
Their gazes collided!
One cold as winter frost, the other warm as spring sunshine.
