Mr. and Mrs. Huo only felt that today’s banquet was not going well at all. If Ding Chen wasn’t backed by his biological sister, Mrs. Hill, Mr. and Mrs. Huo would not have tolerated his mockery. However, the other party’s identity was different now. The Huo Family could ignore their emerging technology

company that had collaborated with others, but they had to be wary of the Hill Family behind him.

Mr. Huo had suffered too much stimulation today. No matter how good his breathing technique was, his expression had changed a little.

He forced a smile and said to Ding Chen, “Mr. Ding, I wasn’t feeling well today and stayed in the lounge for a while. I only greeted some of the Huo Family’s old friends in the latter half of the banquet and accidentally had some delays. I hope you don’t mind.”

After all, Mr, Huo had been the head of the Huo Family for many years. Even now, he was still trying his best to explain that the reason he had stayed behind in the end wasn’t because of their shamelessness, but because the Huo Family had too many old friends and connections and he had been greeting

those people for too long. He had barely managed to save his face with this.

Ding Chen sneered and could not be bothered to say anything more to these two reckless people. He waved his hand and said casually, “Since Mr. Huo is unwell, then go home and rest early. Don’t come out to embarrass yourself.”

When Mrs. Huo heard this, anger welled up in her heart. In her opinion, this Ding brat had only gotten lucky and relied on the Hill Family to start a new technology company. Moreover, he was only an ignorant and incompetent old hoodlum. If it wasn’t because he had a sister like Mrs. Hill, this ignorant

and incompetent middle-aged hoodlum wouldn’t even have the right to breathe in the same air as the Huo Family. Yet now, he still dared to speak to the couple in such an eccentric manner?!

How could Mrs. Huo, who had always thought highly of herself, tolerate this!

Coupled with the fact that Mrs. Huo had held in too much anger tonight, her fury exploded almost immediately.

She glared at Ding Chen fiercely and was about to say something when Mr. Huo grabbed her arm tightly.

Mrs. Huo turned around and looked at Mr. Huo. He frowned at her and shook his head slightly, gesturing for Mrs. Huo not to be impulsive.

Mrs. Huo’s chest heaved up and down violently, but in the end, she suppressed her anger.

Ding Chen saw their small actions clearly and could not help but roll his eyes. He could not be bothered with this foolish couple who still could not see the situation clearly. He instructed the butler beside him, “I’ll be going back first. I’ll leave the rest of the guests to you.”

The butler replied respectfully, “Yes.”

Hence, in front of everyone, Ding Chen left Mr. and Mrs. Huo on the spot and left, just as Huo Tian and Si Huan had done just now.

This time, everyone’s gazes toward Mr. and Mrs. Huo became even stranger. There were even more profound meanings in their gazes as if they had completely peeled off the Huo couple’s skins to clearly see the true status of these two people in the eyes of the Hill Family.

‘Mr. and Mrs. Huo’s faces turned green and pale. The atmosphere around them was extremely oppressive. Under everyone’s ambiguous gazes, they quickly left the Hill Family’s manor.

After getting into the Huo Family’s private car, Mrs. Huo finally couldn’t control her temper and started cursing loudly.

“Damn it! Damn it! How dare they treat me like this?! Huo You! Huo Tian! These two damned b*tches! Ingrates who don’t know how to be thankful! I should have strangled them to death back then!”

Mrs. Huo had never suffered such humiliation before. She had suffered so much at today’s banquet, but she didn’t dare to vent her anger freely at all.

Over the years, Mrs. Huo had never suffered such injustice. She kept cursing and a series of tears fell uncontrollably from her face.

Facing his wife who was crying uncontrollably, Mr. Huo did not have any intention of showing her any tenderness. He frowned deeply and bellowed impatiently in a low voice, “Shut up!”

However, at this moment, Mrs. Huo, who was very agitated, did not take Mr. Huo’s orders to heart at all. She continued to spout malicious words. “What right does that Ding woman have to have such good luck?! In a place like the slums, who knows how many men she has been with and she even

managed to have Mr. Hill wrapped around her finger. Damn b*tch! If it wasn’t for her, how could we have suffered such grievances?!

The more Mrs. Huo spoke, the more out of line she became. Mr. Huo couldn’t take it anymore and swung his arm down hard. With a loud sound, Mrs. Huo’s curses and cries instantly stopped.
