In the evening, Yan Jinyi received a phone call from a number that she didn’t recognize.

  She was surprised to find that the caller was none other than her husband, Huo Xishen.

  Huo Xishen was obviously confronting her for her deeds.

  At this moment, Yan Jinyi was lying on the bed and doing some stretching exercises.

  “Who are you?”


  Huo Xishen had just finished taking a shower and was holding his phone in one hand while wiping his hair with a towel.

  He was wrapped in a dark gray robe and his toned, straight legs would be revealed with every step he took.

  The woman’s voice was slightly unfamiliar to him. When Yan Jinyi asked that question, Huo Xishen couldn’t help but furrow his handsome brows into a frown.

  To his surprise, she didn’t save his contact number.

  Since he wasn’t answering, Yan Jinyi got a little impatient and annoyed. “If you’re not going to talk, I’m going to hang up now.”


  Just as she was about to move her cell phone away from her ear, his deep, magnetizing voice sounded. He said slowly, “I’m Huo Xishen.”


  Yan Jinyi was speechless.

  After being stunned for a moment, Yan Jinyi smirked and teased, “So it’s you, the famous Mr. Huo. Mr. Huo, why are you calling me at such a late hour? Do you need a woman now?”


  As if he hadn’t heard her question, Huo Xishen asked indifferently, “What did you do to Huo Qingyuan?”


  His tone was so calm that Yan Jinyi even suspected if he was being concerned about his younger sister.

  “What can I do to Miss Huo? Mr. Huo, are you trying to convict me?”


  “Don’t give her hope and then put her in despair.”


  It was said that Huo Xishen had always been an introvert who liked being alone and was particular about the details. He also had high expectations for everyone around him.

  That was the reason he despised his wife, Yan Jinyi.

  Yan Jinyi smiled coldly and said, “Huo Qingyuan’s business has nothing to do with me. Huo Xishen, if you just want to give me a warning, I’m sorry but please forgive me. I can’t comply with you. Also, don’t challenge me, I am more difficult to deal with than you think.”


  After saying that, Yan Jinyi hung up the phone.

  ‘Who does he think he is? Does he think he’s a big deal because he’s a domineering CEO?’


  ‘If you have what it takes, fall in love with me first!’


  Yan Jinyi hung up on him again!

  Huo Xishen stared at his cell phone screen that had dimmed, with a cold gaze in his eyes.

  ‘What trick is this woman playing?’


  He heard that she managed to make Zhao Xinchen invest 50 million yuan in her film. It seemed that she was really quite something.

  *

  After running promotional events in five cities, about more than half a month had passed. The last stop for the promotion of ‘Female Fortress Leader’ was at Shenyang University.

  The last time she was there, it was for Huo Qingyuan.

  Yan Jinyi strolled through the spacious campus with a small, exquisite umbrella.

  Unfortunately, she was already an adult in society. Otherwise, she would really want to experience what this desirable college campus life was really like.

  “Jinyi, Zhuang Heng’s autograph event is expected to go on for a while longer. If you’re bored, why don’t you take a stroll around the campus?”


  “Yes.”


  As soon as Yan Jinyi answered, she suddenly glanced at the small forest opposite her.

  She saw Zhou Yan and an innocent female student walking in one after another.

  “Jinyi?”


  Seeing that Yan Jinyi had gotten lost in thought, Tao Wei couldn’t help but call out to her again.

  “What is it?”


  “There is a dinner gathering tonight. Will you come along with us?”


  Yan Jinyi was still staring at the forest, but Zhou Yan and the female student had already vanished out of sight.

  “Nah, I’ll be having dinner at home tonight.”


  “That’s good, spend more time with your parents. From now on, your career will definitely get better. By then, you won’t have time to spend with your parents.”


  ‘Spend time with my parents?’


  Yan Jinyi snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Tao Wei.

  That seemed to be impossible for her.

  “I don’t have parents.”
