Lu Xiting, who was standing next to him, was not as calm as he was. He quickly smiled and went over to praise her. "Yanluo, you are so beautiful today! You are like a fairy."

"Ass-kisser!" Hu Xiaoxiao pouted and made a strange face, looking disgusted.

Lu Xiting, who didn't care about his reputation at all, was very angry and started to fight with her on the spot. "Who are you talking about? What does it have to do with you who I praise for being beautiful?"

"Oh! Are you jealous because you are ugly?"

Seeing him laugh and mock her, Hu Xiaoxiao was furious on the spot. She bit her lips and fiercely pointed with her finger. "What are you talking about? Big sister is not bad looking at all. Who is the ugly person?"

"Those small eyes, that nose, and that ugly face." The angry eyes stared at him and spoke the truth.

He was so handsome, yet she said that to him. He was so angry. He bit his lips and swallowed. He pointed at her and said, "Just you wait. Don't fall in my hands."

"Don't worry. I will never fall into your hands."

Hu Xiaoxiao was very happy with this man who couldn't win against her. She didn't even look at what kind of mouth she had. There was no way she could win against her.

She was careless and did not have the demeanor of a lady. Lin Yanluo quickly whispered, "Today is your grandfather's banquet. As the daughter of the Hu family, you should pay attention to your image."

She didn't care about the title of Hu family's daughter at all. If she had a choice, Hu Xiaoxiao would rather be the daughter of an ordinary family.

There were no such worries and shameful palace struggles. She looked at her peaceful home in the day, but at night, she was evil.

Hu Xiaoxiao patted her shoulder and said with a smile, "I know, my great aunt."

Just as the two of them were smiling mischievously, the head of the Hu family walked out. Although he was over sixty years old, his body looked very strong.

Dressed in a black Tang suit, he walked towards the banquet table and waved his hand to signal for everyone to quiet down. "Thank you all for giving me face today and coming to my birthday banquet."

"Right now, I have something to announce. The youngest daughter of our Hu family, Hu Xiaoxiao, will be engaged to the youngest son of the Wu Group in half a month."

As soon as he said this, everyone at the banquet started to discuss: "Is that little daughter of the Hu family the one who was in prison before? Why would the little son of the Wu Group take a fancy to a prisoner?"

"I heard that this young miss of the Hu family is not in a good mood. Otherwise, why would she be sent to prison? The Hu family has put in a lot of effort to marry off this daughter of theirs."

Hu Xiaoxiao could not take it anymore. When Lin Yanluo saw this, she quickly comforted her, "Xiaoxiao, calm down first. I believe your grandfather has plans for this."

"What plans? For benefits? Or are you afraid that I won't be able to get married?"

Hu Xiaoxiao was so emotional that she couldn't control the anger in her heart. She hated them.

Only when everything was settled did she know that it was like she had been sold and was still counting money for someone else.

Unable to suppress her anger, she walked up to the crowd and said, "I'm sorry, everyone. What my grandfather said just now doesn't count. I'm still single."

She immediately turned Old Master Hu, who was standing on the stage, green with anger. She suppressed her anger and explained to everyone, "Everyone, please don't blame her. This is Xiaoxiao's personality. Please understand."

Just as Hu Xiaoxiao was about to say something else, her father pulled her down from the banquet table and closed the door. He was so angry that he slapped her across the face. "You unfilial daughter, do you know that what you just said has caused the Hu family's reputation to be swept away?"

"Look at you now. If your grandfather hadn't come to propose, you would have been married."

Hu Xiaoxiao didn't feel any pain from the burning pain. She smiled sarcastically. "If Grandpa is gone in the future, does Chairman Hu want to kick me out of the house? Don't get in your way."

"Don't worry. When the time comes, I will definitely walk out by myself. I don't need you to personally drive me out."

Her eyes were filled with hatred. The man in front of her was her father, but in her eyes, he was her enemy.

She didn't want to stay with him any longer. She angrily opened the door and turned around without looking back.

Looking at her leaving figure, Hu Zhiping felt an indescribable pain in his heart. His lonely eyes sat on the sofa as he reminisced.

Old Master Hu walked in. When Hu Zhiping saw this, he quickly went forward to support him as if nothing had happened: "Dad, why are you here?"

"Your relationship with Xiaoxiao has to be taken slowly. Her personality is like her mother's. She's too stubborn. Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken that path." Old Master sighed regretfully.
