Chapter 117 What is your relationship with President Huo?
After he finished speaking, he gently bit her earlobe as if punishing her, a bite that was both a playful prank and a heartfelt declaration.
Liu Shiyin felt a tingling sensation travel from her earlobe to the depths of her heart. She lowered her head shyly, her cheeks slightly flushed, but her heart was filled with sweetness.
"Have you eaten yet? I'll take you to eat."
Huo Muchen gently kissed Liu Shiyin's forehead, his voice full of doting affection.
After hearing this, Liu Shiyin obediently nodded in agreement.
However, when Huo Muchen led her into a grand banquet, Liu Shiyin was somewhat stunned.
She originally thought Huo Muchen was just taking her to a dinner for the two of them, but she never expected to end up in such a grand setting.
In the business world, Huo Muchen's every appearance always causes quite a stir. His every move and every glance seems to be magnified many times over by everyone, who scrutinize it closely.
As he led Liu Shiyin into the banquet, the originally bustling crowd unconsciously made way for him. His steps were calm and firm, each step seemingly telling people that he was the master of this place.
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at him with awe. Some nodded in greeting, while others bowed their heads and avoided him, afraid that their words or actions might offend this business tycoon.
Those business partners who had dealings with Huo Muchen rushed forward to greet him, but Huo Muchen always remained indifferent to them.
He rarely initiates conversations with people, and even when he does respond, it's only with a few brief and indifferent words. His eyes exude an undeniable air of authority, making people hesitant to approach him.
Liu Shiyin walked through the crowd, her hand tightly held by Huo Muchen's. She felt a little nervous; this was her first time attending such a banquet, and also the first time she had witnessed another side of Huo Muchen in the business world.
She would occasionally look up at Huo Muchen, only to see him looking calm and composed, as if everything was under his control.
During the banquet, Huo Muchen chatted happily with celebrities from all walks of life. His words were sharp yet polite, which was admirable.
When someone comes up to talk to Huo Muchen, he will gently hold Liu Shiyin's hand and introduce her to the other person.
Liu Shiyin felt her heart racing, but she tried to remain calm and smiled as she spoke to the other person.
Under the spotlight, Liu Shiyin felt as if she had become the center of attention, but she knew that it was all because of Huo Muchen's presence.
"There's food over there. You can pick some first, and then I'll take you to eat something else when we're done, okay?"
Huo Muchen leaned close to Liu Shiyin's ear and whispered something.
Liu Shiyin nodded after hearing this, and Huo Muchen watched her until she disappeared from his sight.
Liu Shiyin chose a delicate little cake and sat in a quiet corner to eat it slowly. She savored the sweetness of the cake and enjoyed the tranquility and peace.
Suddenly, two tall, beautiful women stood in front of Liu Shiyin.
They looked down at Liu Shiyin, their eyes filled with disdain and provocation, and asked:
"Who are you to President Huo?"
Liu Shiyin looked up at the woman who had suddenly appeared, feeling a mix of doubt and unease.
She didn't know who these "them" were, nor did she know why they would ask such a question.
"I am a friend of Mr. Huo."
Liu Shiyin smiled and said,
The woman seemed unsatisfied with Liu Shiyin's answer and continued to press for further information:
"Just friends?"
Liu Shiyin didn't want to explain her identity too much. She stood up, nodded slightly to them, and prepared to leave.
However, they didn't seem to be so willing to let her go so easily.
