She Lost Memory Before the Divorce-Chapter 29 - 00: She is my wife, Huo Tingxiao!

Chapter 29: Chapter 0029: She is my wife, Huo Tingxiao!

The banquet was almost about to officially start, and all the guests had arrived. The female guests vied with each other in beauty, each wanting to be the most dazzling one of the day.

Unfortunately, Mu Lan slayed the entire event today, so beautiful that all the men’s eyes were glued to her, unable to look away.

Liu Na grew angrier the more she looked, and her words were thoughtlessly harsh.

“I really underestimated you. How did you manage to cling to President Lin’s coattails and get to attend today’s party? I’m warning you to tuck away your foxy tail; this isn’t your hunting ground.”

“Miss Liu really does broaden my horizons every time we meet,” Mu Lan responded.

Mu Lan wasn’t angry; she just quietly watched Liu Na jump with rage.

...

“Your shamelessness really knows no bounds. You’ve already come this far, yet you still refuse to show your true colors?

Do I have to call security to drag you out?”

Lin Yize truly didn’t understand what was wrong with Liu Na, why she was targeting Mu Lan, and still saying things that made no sense.

She is the precious daughter of the Mu Family, whose coattails could she possibly be clinging to?

“Mu Lan…”

“Senior, it’s just a misunderstanding Miss Liu has about me, it’s nothing.”

Senior? Liu Na scoffed.

“Oh, so you’re President Lin’s junior sister. No wonder. Being close to the water gets you first to the moon.

But your way of casting a wide net is really ugly to look at. Now that I’ve exposed you today, stop clinging to Shen Zichu and President Lin from now on.”

“Liu Na, what are you raging about?”

Seeing this scene, Shen Zichu really lost his patience.

If it weren’t for her dad being a well-known figure in Sea City, he wouldn’t bother with her!

“I’m raging? You arrived just in time, come see this master of pond management. You and President Lin are just fish in her pond.

Shen Zichu, don’t be foolish. Surely you aren’t serious about this kind of woman? Just having a fling is already too much.”

Liu Na’s tone involuntarily rose, drawing curious glances and murmurs from the surrounding crowd.

“Enough! Liu Na, apologize right now.”

“I apologize to her? What is she?”

“She is my wife, Huo Tingxiao. Miss Liu, may I ask, what is she then?” said Huo Tingxiao, who had appeared behind Mu Lan.

The surroundings instantly fell silent, all faces turning in shock towards the legendary Mrs. Huo.

Liu Na was so taken aback, it took her a while to find her voice again.

“You… what did you just say?” she stammered.

Wrapping his arm around Mu Lan, Huo Tingxiao smirked.

“It seems Miss Liu not only lacks intelligence, but her hearing isn’t great either.”

“…”

The flush of embarrassment spread over Liu Na’s face, and she had never imagined that this woman could be Huo Tingxiao’s wife!

“I’m sorry… Mr. Huo, I really didn’t know she… she was Mrs. Huo.”

“You mean, if she weren’t Mrs. Huo, you wouldn’t have apologized?”

Mu Lan almost laughed out loud, finding Huo Tingxiao’s sharp tongue quite endearing.

The imposing aura of Huo Tingxiao was overwhelming, giving a suffocating pressure. Liu Na’s legs began to cramp, her hand holding the champagne also began to tremble uncontrollably, as she hadn’t expected to provoke such a person.

Yet, weren’t there rumors outside that Huo Tingxiao and his wife were not in a good relationship? With such a protective demeanor, how could their relationship be bad?

“I…”

“Mr. Huo, it’s my fault for not teaching my daughter well. I hope you won’t take it personally,” said Mr. Liu, who had just been toasting and bonding with others before he noticed the incident and was scared out of his wits.

“Mr. Liu, I don’t know how to respond to that.

If I did take it personally, it would seem that I am not magnanimous.

However, your daughter just insulted my wife in front of everyone. If I let it go, wouldn’t others think that Huo Tingxiao is easy to bully?” Tingxiao spoke calmly, yet Liu Na felt weak in the knees.

Everyone knows he has no mercy, even for his own cousin. In Sea City, only Huo Tingxiao bullies others; who would dare cross him?

“Mr. Huo, I realize my mistake. I truly did not know she was your wife. No, no, no, I should not have spoken so unreasonably.

I… I… I’m truly sorry. Please be magnanimous and don’t stoop to my level,” Liu Na pleaded, genuinely frightened. She was arrogant but not completely mindless.

Offending Huo Tingxiao could mean disaster for the Liu Family!

“Miss Liu’s talent for ingratiating herself to others, I don’t know where you learned that.

Just today at the salon, you explicitly said I should find a rich middle-aged greasy man to have multiple children with so I wouldn’t worry about livelihood.

You also mentioned you were well-taken care of by your family, unlike me.

Why the sudden change of attitude?” Mu Lan said, making Liu Na’s face turn ashen, and Tingxiao’s brow furrowed deeply.

“Mrs. Huo, I am deeply sorry. My daughter was shortsighted and offended you. She just returned to the country and is unfamiliar with the situation in Sea City, so…”

Mr. Liu, ever the cunning fox, quickly shifted the blame.

Mu Lan thought, just because your daughter is new to the country, she thinks she can insult anyone she pleases?

“Oh, where did Miss Liu study abroad?”

“I… was at…”

Liu Na struggled to speak.

How could she admit she attended a no-name university? Wouldn’t that reveal everything?

“What’s the matter, Miss Liu? Is it jet lag or have you forgotten even the name of your school?”

Mu Lan’s remark prompted laughter from those around, causing Liu Na great embarrassment; she could only bite her lip and remain silent.

She had been vocal just moments before, but now she was as meek as a quail.

“Mr. Huo, Mrs. Huo, the banquet is about to begin; let’s not let one ignorant child ruin our mood,” said Mr. Liu.

“But I’m already out of the mood,” Huo Tingxiao replied in a tone that was neither salty nor bland, making Mr. Liu tremble all over. If Tingxiao left this event due to this incident, how would he explain it to headquarters?

If it were anyone else, it might be tolerated, but this was Huo Tingxiao. Even a project worth over a billion could be scrapped if he felt uncomfortable.

“If you won’t consider it for my sake, at least consider it for Mr. Lin’s sake; like they say, don’t look at the monk’s face, look at the Buddha’s face…”

Mr. Liu was a sly old fox, bringing in Lin Yize at the crucial moment.

Mu Lan pursed her lips, although she really disliked Liu Na, it would be overestimating her importance if they let her mess up the cooperation with Jiancheng.

Tingxiao, seeing her hesitation, knew she was somewhat swayed by the argument.

“Mr. Liu is right, we shouldn’t let unnecessary people affect anything. However, each matter has its own place; Miss Liu needs to formally apologize to my wife.”

Liu Na nervously looked to Mu Lan, clearly uncertain about what Tingxiao meant by a formal apology.
