Because the Sun family father and daughter had something on them, the engagement banquet was still scheduled for the same day as the family recognition banquet.

Huo Qing was quite dissatisfied.

In his view, a real man should not be bound by matters between men and women. However, when Huo Jun used the same words he had used to talk to Su Wantang in the store, and when he heard that Huo Jun's previous wife was pregnant but did not survive, Huo Qing finally relented.

The Huo family is still too small.

However, he instructed Huo Jun not to be ostentatious, after all, with his status and position, countless people were secretly watching him.

Huo Jun had just lost his wife, so it wouldn't be good for him to make a scene.

But Sun Qian didn't care about any of that. All she knew was that tomorrow was her big day, and countless people would be attending the banquet. If she dressed shabbily, she would be laughed at by many.

So, Sun Qian, who had specifically asked Huo Jun to pay the bill today, got into an argument with Huo Jun over what to buy.

The reason was that Sun Qian wanted a set of jade jewelry to make a good impression, but Huo Jun disagreed.

The Friendship Store is considered an international store, often frequented by foreign visitors. It carries many high-quality domestic products, such as jade, pearls, and gold and silver jewelry. Of course, it also carries a considerable number of foreign currency goods, such as cameras, watches, and cosmetics.

Jade and gold might be risky items outside, but they are normal items to trade at Friendship Store. Moreover, Sun Qian comes from a respectable family background, so it's understandable that she occasionally buys these things.

"Sisi, this thing is too eye-catching, we can't buy it," Huo Jun said kindly.

This whole thing costs 680 yuan, which means he'll have to use up half a year's allowance.

Sun Qian scoffed: "Huo Jun, what's the Huo family's status? What's my family's status? I'm just buying some jewelry, who dares to say anything?"

"Sun Qian!" Huo Jun's voice was low and his eyes were cold. "Don't be ridiculous!"

"Who's being ridiculous?" Sun Qian looked Huo Jun up and down, her gaze utterly blatant. "You're not broke, are you? Last time too, you were stingy with just a few hundred yuan. Are you even a man?"

Huo Jun's face darkened, but since he was already dark-skinned, there was no noticeable change. However, his words carried a hint of gritted teeth.

"It's not about the money, it's that we shouldn't buy it now!"

"I don't care!"

"Huo Jun, I want this one!"

Sun Qian refused to budge: "You buy it for me!"

Song Wanying looked in the direction of the sound and saw a pretty, fashionable young woman talking to a tall, dark-skinned man.

Song Wanying recognized the man after taking a few more glances.

It was Huo Jun.

Good! Cui Cui suffers in the hands of that bastard Su Wantang, and her husband actually seduces a slut?

Song Wanying, wearing high heels, strode over, grabbed Sun Qian's arm, and flipped her over.

"You shameless slut, seducing a married man, I'll slap you to death!" She swung her arm and slapped Sun Qian across the face.

Sun Qian was stunned for a moment, but she wasn't one to be easily manipulated. She grabbed Song Wanying's wrist, flipped it over, and slapped Song Wanying across the face.

"Who are you calling a slut? Huo Jun has a wife, but she died a long time ago. Huo Jun and I are in love and are a legitimate couple. We're even getting engaged tomorrow. If you keep spouting nonsense, I'll send you to the police station."

This barrage of information left Song Wanying feeling dizzy.

Dating? Getting engaged tomorrow?

She could no longer hear it as clearly.

At this moment, she even had the urge to devour him! Her bulging, bloodshot eyes stared intently at Huo Jun, the beast in her heart already wanting to tear him to shreds.

But the words "send to the police station" were like four thick nails, firmly pinning Song Wanying's limbs down. With each tear, the bones rubbed together, making a piercing sound, and pieces of flesh nearby fell off.

Just then, Li Qiang caught up and put his arm around Song Wanying, whose lips were pale from biting them.

"Hey girl, why are you running?"

As Li Qiang approached, he saw the younger and more beautiful Sun Qian, and his flirtatious gaze lingered on her full breasts.

"Where are you looking?" Sun Qian raised her hand and slapped him again.

Li Qiang's brows furrowed, and his eyes turned sinister.

He opened his mouth and shouted, "Come and see, it's the soldiers—"

As soon as Song Wanying came out, Huo Jun felt that she was familiar, but he couldn't remember who she was.

But his intuition told him that this was important to him, so he frowned and thought about it carefully.

Seeing that Li Qiang was about to cause trouble, he quickly stepped forward and said, "Sir, I'm sorry, my girlfriend has a bit of a temper, but she doesn't mean any harm."

"I am the battalion commander of this unit. This is some money as an apology." Huo Jun revealed his identity, indicating that he was not someone to be trifled with, and also expressed his willingness to pay money to settle the matter.

Upon seeing that large ten-yuan note, Li Qiang's fear upon hearing Huo Jun's identity vanished, and his mouth instantly stretched into a wide grin.

"No problem, no problem."

"It was my fault. I've never seen such a beautiful woman before, and I took a few extra glances, which caused your partner to misunderstand."

"Then I won't disturb you any longer, you can continue shopping."

After saying that, Li Qiang pulled Song Wanying, who looked like she had been stunned, away.

They left, but Huo Jun's burning gaze remained fixed on them. Even when Sun Qian called out to him several times, he didn't hear her.

Following Huo Jun's gaze, Sun Qian suddenly remembered something, raised her arm, and slapped Huo Jun across the face.

"Huo Jun! Haven't you ever seen a woman before? You can even be attracted to a woman old enough to be your mother? Are you blind? Or is it that Liu Cuicui, that country bumpkin, has lowered your standards?"

Liu Cuicui —

Huo Jun's eyes suddenly lit up.

He remembered.
