Chapter 1009: Chapter 1009: The Shift in the Situation
“You two are fine, so why are they ddling like that?” Jiang Shuqin couldn’t help but speak angrily.
Seeing Jiang Shuqin so furious, Xia Chuyi smiled and comforted her, “Don’t be so upset. Tomorrow, when the news of my engagent with Huo Shiqian is officially announced, these rumors will disappear.”
“And Liu Yingying and her group won’t be able to spread rumors anymore,” Xia Chuyi explained.
“What? Your engagent news?” After hearing this, Jiang Shuqin was no longer angry and joyfully exclaid, “You’re getting engaged? That’s great!”
“Oh, is it because of those rumors? Because of the rumors, you’re getting engaged early, right?” Jiang Shuqin slapped her forehead and suddenly realized, “In that case, Liu Yingying might have done a good deed!”
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi couldn’t help but smile. Jiang Shuqin always seed more anxious about her matters, happier for her news than she herself was.
“Shuqin, thank you,” Xia Chuyi suddenly said.
“Thank for what?” Jiang Shuqin scratched her head and said, “I haven’t really done anything!”
Xia Chuyi shook her head, not saying anything further.
In her new life, she was grateful for all the friends, family, and partners she had encountered.
The next day, the Ou Family and Huo Family indeed officially announced the alliance between the two families.
“Ou Family and Huo Family alliance?” Those who heard this news were even more surprised than when they heard about the Huo Liu alliance.
But after the initial surprise, they imdiately realized, “This makes sense, I’ve always said the Huo Family is neutral, why would they wade into those troubled waters?”
“Yes, the Ou Family has always been neutral too. Their alliance is quite good.”
Why is it good?
Because at least it won’t suddenly affect the situation.
“But where did the previous rumor of the alliance co from?” People began to feel curious about this.
“Oh, that rumor wasn’t it just because Mr. Liu’s daughter has been scouting for a partner ever since she returned?”
“They probably had their eyes on Huo Shiqian before, but it ultimately didn’t work out.”
“Then… could it be that the Huo Family and Ou Family are implicitly suggesting that Mr. Liu can’t rise to power?”
“This… really could be the case!”
The “Huo Liu alliance” rumor quickly died out, while other vague situations rapidly spread through the upper circles in the Capital City.
Capital City, Liu Family.
Liu Yingying was so furious that she swept everything off the table to the ground, shouting, “Xia Chuyi!”
“Ying Ying, don’t be mad, it’s just Huo Shiqian,” Mr. Liu said, “If it doesn’t work out, it doesn’t work out, your father will find you another match!”
“Speaking of which, about the ‘alliance’ rumor, you shouldn’t have made decisions on your own.” Despite doting on his daughter, the impact of this incident gave Mr. Liu so reasons to complain.
Mr. Liu said, “If you’d told earlier that Suli from the Huo Family supported you, I could have planned better, and maybe this marriage could’ve happened. You are still too young…”
Before Mr. Liu could finish, Liu Yingying called out, “Dad, how can you say I’m too young?”
“This matter could clearly benefit both him and , why can’t it be discussed?” Liu Yingying was unconvinced and said, “Besides, didn’t Huo Shiqian’s mom also agree?”
Mr. Liu shook his head, saying, “But she is his stepmother…”
Just then, a secretary ca in to report an issue, and Mr. Liu concluded with, “Anyway, don’t think about this matter anymore.”
