Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Men, Born with a Desire for Beauty!

    Huo Xingzhou frowned and looked at him, his gaze growing colder.

    “Get lost.”

    Zhou Yu, with a sleazy face, said, “Don’t be embarrassed. Tell me, did Cheng Han cure your infertility?”

    “No,” Huo Xingzhou said impatiently.

    Zhou Yu deflated like a punctured ball, “What a pity. I can’t find anyone to share all those good things with. Huo Er, don’t lose heart, you will definitely get healthy!”

    He patted Huo Xingzhou’s shoulder sympathetically.

    ...

    “What good things do you have?” Huo Xingzhou asked flatly, looking at him inquisitively.

    “Lots of good things.”

    Zhou Yu lifted his eyebrows proudly, “Things beyond your imagination.”

    Things that were available in the market and those that were not, he had them all.

    There was even a storage room in his house dedicated to these treasures, which even the housemaid wasn’t allowed to enter and clean.

    “Vulgar,” Huo Xingzhou cursed.

    Zhou Yu, upon hearing this, showed an unhappy face and retorted, “A man, by nature, pursues the pleasures of the flesh! Don’t insult my hobbies when you haven’t experienced the ultimate pleasures of life. You have no idea what ecstatic union, what intimate delights are like!”

    Huo Xingzhou gave him a cold look.

    Zhou Yu, clutching his hand, said, “Don’t you doubt me, there will come a day when you’ll beg me for help!”

    “That day will never come.”

    “Keep being stubborn then. When Qiao Xi grows tired of you, you’ll know to beg me.”

    Zhou Yu quickly became serious again and looked at him, saying, “Tomorrow, I’ll send over yours and Qiao Xi’s outfits. The elder Huo’s birthday banquet starts at six in the evening; as the founder of Tianyuan Group, it’s time you made an appearance.”

    He had already let out the news that the Tianyuan founder was arriving in Haicheng!

    “Huo Xingzhou, tomorrow night is the time for vengeance, for settling grudges. I’m waiting for you to smash their faces!”

    With a glance, Huo Xingzhou said, “As you wish.”

    Zhou Yu looked at him firmly, smiled, and then left.

    Outside the villa, the sound of an engine soon followed.

    The car drove away in a cloud of smoke.

    Huo Xingzhou stretched his hand out and picked up the specially made black invitation with gold embossing, his expression indifferent.

    No one must have expected him to have an ace up his sleeve.

    Qiao Xi came down the stairs and saw this scene.

    Zhou Yu sent over dresses and jewelry first thing in the morning, along with a whole team for styling and makeup.

    Huo Sijiao rubbed her bleary eyes, looking at the luxury gift boxes arrayed in the living room, bewildered.

    She turned slowly to look at Huo Xingzhou and Qiao Xi, and asked,

    “Brother, sister-in-law, did you just say we’re going to Grandpa’s seventieth birthday banquet? I didn’t hear wrong, did I?”

    She suspected she was still drunk and not fully sober, thus hearing things.

    “Yes,” he said with a nonchalant expression.

    Huo Sijiao stepped forward, touched his forehead, and said, “You don’t have a fever! Why are you spouting nonsense so early in the morning? You can’t possibly be serious, right?”

    “Do you want to go?” Huo Xingzhou asked.

    Huo Sijiao shook her head hurriedly, but her face was filled with difficulty.

    She instinctively didn’t want to go, but she was worried about her brother and sister-in-law being bullied. One in a wheelchair, the other looking delicate and frail.

    “Bro, do you regret cutting ties with the Huo Family? If you really regret it, don’t choose this occasion to seek reconciliation. Do you know how many people will be there tonight?”

    The entire Haicheng high society, all the prominent figures would be there!

    Huo Sijiao advised earnestly, “Huo Beiting will definitely humiliate you mercilessly. You hit his lackey yesterday, how could he just let it go?”

    In her view, it was like walking into a lion’s den.

    How could they deliberately put themselves in a position to be bullied!

    “I’m not going there to seek reconciliation,” Huo Xingzhou clarified.

    “Then you’re going to make a scene? That’s even worse! There will be many professional bodyguards on-site, how could old Chen possibly contend with so many well-trained fighters!”

    Qiao Xi grabbed her and said, “Jiaojiao, it’s okay, if you’re scared you can just stay at home.”

    “Sister-in-law, you don’t understand how serious this is.”

    She was truly anxious; her parents had gone out on a trip again, and there was no one to offer advice.

    “Do you want to go?” Huo Xingzhou calmly asked again.

    Huo Sijiao, seeing that they were deluded, bit her teeth fiercely and said, “I won’t go!”

    She planned to call her parents, who were out traveling to unwind, to hurry back and be ready to clean up the mess.

    ...

    Six o’clock in the evening.

    Haicheng’s only seven-star hotel was booked out exclusively for the grand celebration of the Huo family patriarch’s seventieth birthday!

    Yunding Grand Hotel was located in the center of Haicheng, constructed with ninety thousand tons of steel, seemingly floating in mid-air.

    Night fell.

    When the city’s neon lights lit up, it seemed like a palace in the sky, stunningly beautiful and extremely luxurious!
