Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

With so many Hou family mbers present, it would be unreasonable for her not to give in to Hou Cheng. Otherwise, if anything happened to Hou Cheng in the future, the Hou family would suspect her.

Seeing that Jian Xing’er had drunk alcohol, the Hou family felt much better. Jian Xing’er had drunk Hou Cheng’s wine, which proved that she had accepted Hou Cheng and the Hou family’s flattery.

At this mont, Hou Junlai finally arrived. He was wearing an exquisitely tailored suit and his hair was ticulously styled. He wasn’t surprised to see so many people sitting in the hall. He had long expected that the Hou family’s inner family and Zhang Changjiu wouldn’t let go of this opportunity to please Jian Xing’er.

“Uncle, you’re here…” Hou Cheng took the initiative to greet Hou Junlai.

Not understanding what he was trying to do, Hou Junlai frowned slightly. Seeing this, Mrs. Hou hurriedly told Hou Junlai the ins and outs of the matter.

When Hou Junlai heard this, his expression didn’t change, but he secretly felt a sense of mockery.

“Junlai, greet the elders,” Mrs. Hou said to Junlai. However, Junlai didn’t speak. Instead, he walked straight to the empty seat beside Jian Xing’er and sat down.

“Sigh! Why is this child so insensible?!” Mrs. Hou pretended to be angry, but the admiration in her eyes couldn’t deceive anyone.

“It’s fine, it’s fine! Junlai is tired, so don’t force him.” The head of the Hou family, Hou Gui, chuckled and said, “1 watched Junlai grow up. In terms of sensibleness, no one can rival him. We’re all family, so greetings aren’t important!” The other mbers of the Hou family also helped to smooth things over.

Mrs. Hou shook her head helplessly, but she couldn’t help but feel happy. In the past, the mbers of the Hou family weren’t like this in front of them. They looked down on them and didn’t take their family seriously at all. But now, even if Junlai rejected them in public, they had to accept it. Their family wouldn’t have to lower themselves in front of the mbers of the Hou family anymore.

When Jian Xing’er saw their expressions, she beca even more annoyed. “Xing’er, let toast you too,” Hou Junlai suddenly said as he looked at Jian Xing’er affectionately.

Jian Xing’er didn’t say anything, but she picked up her wine glass and clinked it with his before taking a sip.

The atmosphere beca awkward again. “Is Tiani Corporation doing well now?” Hou Junlai took the initiative to find a topic to talk about. In Jian Xing’er’s eyes, he was just an ordinary business partner now, so Jian Xing’er’s attitude towards him was very indifferent. She would answer if she wanted to, but not if she didn’t want to.

Hou Junlai looked a little uncomfortable, mainly because he had forced Jian Xing’er to divorce him back then. Now, he couldn’t raise his head in front of her. No one knew what was going on, but they saw that Jian Xing’er’s attitude towards Hou Junlai was much better than her attitude towards them.

“Uncle, Auntie, let toast you two again.” Hou Cheng walked over and interrupted their conversation. This al was his only chance to please Jian Xing’er. If he didn’t seize it, it would be difficult to see her again in the future.

The Hou family’s inner clan was considered a reputable family in Sea City, but the family business and achievents they were so proud of were not worth ntioning in front of Jian Xing’er. Therefore, they tried their best to please her.

As long as Jian Xing’er’s Tiani Corporation gave them so business, it would be enough for them to earn a huge profit. However, the Hou family wasn’t satisfied with this. What they really wanted was for Jian Xing’er to beco their backer. Once they had Jian Xing’er as their backer, their status in Sea City would advance by leaps and bounds in the future!

“Alright, let’s drink.” Jian Xing’er smiled and looked like she was in a good mood.

Seeing that her attitude had changed, Hou Cheng hurriedly smiled and said, “Little Aunt, it’s not easy for us to gather together today, so 1 want to drink a few more glasses with you! Let’s not go ho until we’re drunk!”

“Are you really planning to not return until you’re drunk?” Jian Xing’er asked with a smile.

“Of course! 1’11 definitely accompany you to your heart’s content today!” Hou Cheng picked up the wine bottle and filled Jian Xing’er’s glass before pouring himself another glass.

“Xing’er can’t drink too much!” Clearly displeased, Hou Junlai suddenly reached out to block the wine glass handed over by Hou Cheng.

Hou Cheng was in a dilemma. “Uncle, are you joking with ? Auntie can hold her liquor very well. She drank a lot before you ca down,” Hou Cheng said.

“She can’t hold her liquor well. She’ll definitely feel uncomfortable if she continues to drink. Don’t let her drink.” Hou Junlai’s tone beca a little tougher. He couldn’t stand Hou Cheng’s flattery, and he didn’t want him to force Jian Xing’er to drink either..
