Gao Qiao obviously believed Ye Yao more. Huo Buyu rolled his eyes.
Ye Yao looked at Huo Buyu and Gao Qiao. Their reactions to her words were different. From their reactions, she could tell that Huo Buyu was the calm and steady type, while Gao Qiao was the carefree type.
At this point, Gao Qiao suddenly said, “By the way, Huo Buyu, your grandfather’s birthday banquet is in a few days, right?” He wanted to say something but hesitated.
Ye Yao keenly sensed something. “What about the birthday banquet?”
Huo Buyu raised his eyebrows as well. “Gao Qiao tends to hear gossip from unofficial sources. Speak up, what have you heard?”
Gao Qiao glanced at Ye Yao and didn’t seem to want to say anything. Ye Yao immediately opened her mouth and was about to lay a curse. When Gao Qiao saw this, he immediately said, “Don’t, I’ll say it, alright? I heard that Old Master Huo is going to announce Huo Buyu and Jiang Yun i s engagement at the birthday banquet.”
Ye Yao widened her eyes and jumped up from her seat. She looked at Huo Buyu. “You’re getting engaged to Jiang Yun?”
Huo Buyu had hugged Ye Yao the moment she jumped up. “What are you thinking? I didn’t even know about this.”
Gao Qiao said slowly, “My sources are very reliable. I guess Grandpa Huo didn’t tell you and planned to announce it on the day of his birthday banquet. This is also very in line with Grandpa Huo’s domineering and tyrannical personality.” Huo Buyu frowned. Indeed, this wasn’t beyond his grandfather.
At this point, Gao Qiao suggested, “Why not, don’t attend your grandfather’s birthday banquet?” After saying that, he shook his head immediately. “No, it’s outrageous that you don’t even attend your grandfather’s birthday banquet. But what if your grandfather really doesn’t play by the rules and announces your engagement to Jiang Yun without asking for your opinion? What will Ye Yao do then?”
Gao Qiao was focused on what Ye Yao, not Huo Buyu, was going to do. Obviously, he was most concerned about Ye Yao.
Huo Buyu pondered for a while and said, “We’ll have to think of a way.”
“Why would you need to think of a way!” Ye Yao rubbed her palms together.
“Just bring me to the birthday banquet!’ Gao Qiao was surprised. “Whatever for?”
“Gatecrash!” the girl exclaimed.
Gao Qiao asked, “How?”
Ye Yao replied, “We’ll talk about it when the time comes!”
Gao Qiao was speechless.
Huo Buyu was stumped for a moment. In that case, all the more he couldn’t bring her along!
The next day, after Huo Buyu and Ye Yao had breakfast, Huo Buyu sent Ye Yao to class as usual. He stopped to drop her at the original intersection. However, Ye Yao suddenly said, “Drive forward and stop me at the school gate. I don’t feel like walking today.”
Huo Buyu was stunned for a moment before the smile on his face widened. He said gently, “Okay.”
Huo Buyu drove the car straight to the school gate, and Ye Yao got out of the car openly. Recently, her relationship with Huo Buyu had been rather out in the open. In addition, now that Huo Buyu’s grandfather was causing trouble, Ye Yao felt that it was necessary for her to make her relationship with Huo Buyu public knowledge! Otherwise, she might be labeled as a mistress for no reason! She was clearly his girlfriend!
Many people in the school recognized Huo Buyu’s car, so when they saw Ye Yao getting out of the car, they were stunned. However, they didn’t think too deeply about it. They just thought it was strange. Why was Ye Yao getting out of Huo Buyu’s car? Could it be because of Gao Qiao again?
Ye Yao waved at Huo Buyu, who was in the car, and then went to class happily. After Ye Yao walked away, Huo Buyu also drove off, as though he was giving her a lift.
During class, Lin Qingning sat beside Ye Yao and asked curiously, “Ye Yao, I heard that you came in Huo Buyu’s car this morning?
Ye Yao nodded. “That’s right. Many people saw it, right? I think someone posted the photo on the school forum.”
Lin Qingning immediately asked, “Why did you come to school in Huo Buyu’s car? Do you know Huo Buyu very well? To be honest, are you trying to woo
Huo Buyu through Gao Qiao?”
Ye Yao found it funny. “That’s right. You saw through me.”
Lin Qingning said, “Of course. After all, Huo Buyu has the status and the looks. No woman can resist him, right?”
When she said this, Lin Qingning sounded a little jealous because she also wanted to pursue Huo Buyu. However, it was difficult for her to run into Huo Buyu, let alone pursue him. But now, Ye Yao could pursue Huo Buyu just because he was related to Gao Qiao. She felt a little uneasy..
