Hidden identities of the AI Heiress
Chapter 825 - Chapter 825 Chapter 825 Just Very Annoyed

Chapter 825: Chapter 825: Just Very Annoyed Chapter 825: Chapter 825: Just Very Annoyed Han Luo shook his head frantically, “I don’t recognize her, she came with Li Hanzhou, perhaps she’s a talent cultivated by the Li Family.”

A vicious look flashed across Huo Chi’s face, “If a talent cultivated by the Li Family could be poached by the Huo Family, I wonder if that would piss Li Hanzhou to death.”

Although Qiao Yun ruined his plans.

But if he could win over such a talented individual, maybe he could offset the incident of having introduced Han Luo to the Huo Family.

Huo Chi thought the idea was good and decided to find a suitable opportunity to invite her for a talk.

As for Han Luo…

Huo Chi narrowed his eyes and sneered coldly, “From today onwards, you’re out of the Huo Family, and everything you’ve received from the Huo Family, you’ll return to me one by one, the rest I will settle with you slowly.”

Han Luo was struck as if by lightning.

At that moment, Huo Chi’s cell phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID, his heart skipped a beat.

Why would the major butler by his brother’s side suddenly call him?

Could it be because of today’s events?

Did Li Hanzhou really tell his brother?

Countless thoughts raced through his mind until the call was almost disconnected automatically before he dared to answer it.

Grasping the phone, he asked cautiously, “Uncle Luo, why are you calling me?”

“The master has asked me to inform you to come home immediately.”

Huo Chi, uneasy, probed, “Did big brother mention what it’s about?”

But the call was hung up directly.

Huo Chi’s face shifted between expressions, cursing fiercely, “Riding on someone’s coattails.”

He paced back and forth anxiously with his hands interlocking nonstop.

Han Luo’s gaze narrowed slightly, his eyes and brows drooping as he said, “Young Master doesn’t need to worry, I have a way to cool down the eldest Young Master.”

Huo Chi stopped in his tracks, asking eagerly, “What way?”

“You have to promise me first…” Han Luo raised his eyes, “Let bygones be bygones regarding my matter, and you have to cover for me with the eldest Young Master.”

Huo Chi laughed, “Do you still not understand the situation? It’s you begging me to spare you, not me needing you.”

Han Luo’s lips were tight, and he said nothing.

In truth, his hands behind his back clenched continuously, and if one looked closely, they could even see a slight tremble.

After locking eyes with him for a moment, Huo Chi finally spoke, “Fine, I promise you, but if you dare to deceive me again, you know the consequences.”

Han Luo feigned calmness and said, “What the eldest Young Master wants most now is for the AI driving system to succeed, which is why he sent you to negotiate with Tianqi. As long as you can successfully get the data, I believe the eldest Young Master will not only stop being angry but will also value your contribution even more.”

Huo Chi’s eyes lit up, he had almost forgotten about that; he doubted, “Before, I thought you could do it because you were a student of Professor Qiao. Now, however…”

Han Luo gritted his teeth, “I guarantee there won’t be a problem, after all, Miss Jiang from the Jiang Family is still here.”

Now, Jiang Jing was his only trump card.

Huo Chi was skeptical, but for the sake of his own interests, he decided to give Han Luo one more chance.

Seeing he had persuaded Huo Chi, Han Luo covertly let out a sigh of relief.

A ruthless light began to emerge in the depths of his eyes.

Han Wang had publicly embarrassed him today; when the time came, he intended to turn Tianqi into a laughingstock.

…

Qiao Yun, the subject of their discussion, was accompanying Han Wang as he left.

She partly attended this event due to the so-called students of Professor Qiao.

The other reason was that Pei Yao wanted to meet the Huo Family.

Having met them, she thought Huo Chi was quite foolish, posing no threat to her.

As such, what Pei Yao was interested in might not be Huo Chi himself but the entire Huo Family.

“I need to go back now.”

This was what Han Wang said to Qiao Xun, but his gaze was fixed on Qiao Yun.

Qiao Yun nodded indifferently, showing no intention of following.

Han Wang looked displeasedly at Li Hanzhou.

Li Hanzhou calmly raised his hand and placed it on Qiao Yun’s shoulder.

Qiao Yun suddenly found herself half-embraced, her back against the man’s solid and powerful chest, and she could even smell the familiar cold fragrance in his breath. She slightly moved her eyebrows and eyes.

She felt that Li Hanzhou’s behavior was too inappropriate.

How could he manhandle her in front of such a crowd?

Although she thought this, her body did not move at all.

And Han Wang was very displeased.

Seeing this, Qiao Xun chuckled a few times, understanding very well what Han Wang must be feeling now.

The home-grown little white flower, having left for a year, was now snatched away by someone else; nobody would feel comfortable with that.

He coughed lightly and tried to persuade Han Wang to stay: “It’s a rare outing, why rush back so soon? Why don’t we have a meal together?”

With things having escalated to this point, there was no need to participate in this event anymore.

“No thanks,” Han Wang shook his head: “If I don’t go back now, they might run off.”

Qiao Xun: “…”

Fine then, only Professor Qiao and Han Wang, and also Pei Ya could handle that group of people.

Qiao Xun asked again, “Are we just letting Han Luo off like that?”

Han Wang replied icily, “Of course not, you’ll know later.”

Qiao Xun uttered an “oh,” his interest piqued.

Han Wang always listened to Qiao Yun; Qiao Xun wondered how his little niece intended to punish Han Luo.

“See you in a few days,” Han Wang didn’t say much. After all, the assessment was in a few days, and they would meet then.

Although she was a bit puzzled as to why Professor Qiao suddenly wanted to be an examiner, as he used to refuse such troublesome matters, she didn’t ask further. She simply nodded at Qiao Yun and then boarded the helicopter, leaving with style.

With interest, Li Hanzhou asked, “Did you come up with their names?”

“Hmm, only one of them,” Qiao Yun said: “The rest wanted to change their own.”

“Why the surname Han?”

“Because of drawing lots.”

“…”

So untechnical, so unlike Professor Qiao.

Qiao Yun lifted her eyelids and slowly reproached Li Hanzhou: “You mustn’t upset her.”

Li Hanzhou ruffled Qiao Yun’s hair and sighed, “Which is more important to you, her or I?”

Qiao Yun, under his intense gaze, felt uncomfortable all over, a bit agitated.

She looked away and mumbled, “Both are important.”

Li Hanzhou was satisfied and ruffled Qiao Yun’s head again.

Qiao Yun pursed her lips and leaned closer to Li Miao.

Finally able to catch a breath, Li Miao sighed with relief: “I was really scared just now, I didn’t dare to speak. But Qiaoqiao, you are so amazing, I’m totally showboated by you.”

Before Qiao Yun could console Li Miao, Li Hanzhou’s thin lips curled up proudly and he said, “My girlfriend, naturally, is impressive.”

Li Miao: “…” She didn’t want this brother anymore!

Qiao Xun watched with aching teeth. If Li Hanzhou were a peacock, he would probably be strutting his feathers proudly at Qiao Yun by now.

But Su Qingyan found it strange that Han Wang seemed to recognize Qiao Yun.

How did Qiao Yun come to know people from Tianqi Research Institute?

However, he soon remembered that Qiao Yun was raised by the Qiao Family, and since Qiao Xun knew Han Wang, it wasn’t bizarre for Qiao Yun to know him as well.

“Qiaoqiao, Qingyan, I’ve finally found you.”

Su Fan also came to the event today and had been looking for them since the commotion started. After searching for a long time without success, his smile widened upon seeing them.

Seeing Su Fan smiling until his eyes almost disappeared, Qiao Yun curiously asked, “Uncle, did something good happen?”

Su Fan laughed heartily: “Qiaoqiao is so clever, indeed something good has happened.”
