Yan Jinyi remained composed as ever. “So be it then.”


  “Huh?” Huo Qingyuan felt that she had either misheard Yan Jinyi, or she wasn’t talking to Yan Jinyi at all.

  “No, Second Sister-in-law, did you not hear what I said clearly? Big Brother and Shen Yan…”


  “I know, they got a divorce, right? What’s there to make a big fuss about? It’s such a trivial matter. Okay, go study. You’re a college student but you’re being so gossipy instead of paying attention to your studies.”


  ‘Second Sister-in-law is so calm. Is Shen Yan not her favorite?’


  “Bye.”


  After hanging up, Yan Jinyi looked at Huo Xishen and said gloatingly, “Huo Chengyu and Shen Yan have gotten divorced.”


  Huo Xishen had his hands in his coat pockets and an indifferent expression on his face. His emotions actually didn’t change a single bit after hearing that, as if they weren’t his family members at all.

  “Yes.”


  “Aren’t you shocked?”


  ‘Isn’t Huo Chengyu the closest to Doggy Huo?’


  Huo Xishen looked up and answered calmly, “They didn’t have true feelings for each other. It was only a matter of time before they’d get a divorce.”


  “…”


  She felt that he was directing those words at her.

  “Mr. Huo, don’t worry, once…”


  Not giving Yan Jinyi a chance to finish her sentence, Huo Xishen interjected, “I have an excellent relationship with you, Darling. You don’t need to worry that I will file for divorce.”


  ‘Well, but I will!’ Yan Jinyi thought to herself.

  When she returned to her room, Yan Jinyi took her cell phone and called Shen Yan from the balcony.

  Usually, Shen Yan would pick up very quickly but this time, it took several calls before Yan Jinyi could reach her.

  “Hello, Jinyi?” Shen Yan’s voice sounded a bit hoarse and nasally. The noisy sounds of music could also be vaguely heard in the background.

  “Shen Yan, where are you?”


  “I’m at a bar. Jinyi, I’m finally back to being single today. I’m here specifically to celebrate my singlehood.”


  Yan Jinyi finally figured out that Shen Yan was probably drunk.

  ‘Shen Yan is so beautiful. At such a dangerous place like the bar where there are lots of sordid people, she’d definitely be taken advantage of by lechers, especially since she’s so vulnerable!’


  “I’m the heiress of the Shen family after all, who would dare to bully me… Jinyi, I’m hanging up now, let’s meet again when you come back…”


  Yan Jinyi was certain that Shen Yan had had too much to drink. Usually, she would never speak in such a tone of voice.

  Hearing that her line was engaged, she hurriedly searched for Huo Qingyuan’s contact number and gave it some thought before scrolling down her contact list again.

  ‘Forget it, I’ll call Tan Sangsang.’


  Tan Sangsang had just bathed Mu Mu and was about to tell him a bedtime story. She was surprised to receive a call from Yan Jinyi at this hour.

  Nowadays, Yan Jinyi rarely calls her, and was even colder and more indifferent than Huo Xishen.

  Her intuition told her that something must be amiss.

  Just as she expected…


  Yan Jinyi called her late at night to ask her for help in saving her sister-in-law, Shen Yan.

  Yan Jinyi waited for a long time and only went to bed with a peace of mind when Tan Sangsang sent her a video. Before going to sleep, she even instructed Tan Sangsang not to get all touchy with Shen Yan.

  On the following day.

  Huo Xishen personally sent her back to set. He didn’t alight from the car at all and simply left without turning back after confirming that Yan Jinyi had met up with the crew.

  Yan Jinyi was carrying a few pieces of diamond ore with her so she was behaving sneakily like a thief.

  “Jinyi, why is Mr. Huo in such a hurry to leave? He should have at least stayed for lunch.”


  She glanced at Tao Wei coldly and asked rhetorically, “Can the food here be better than the food served at a five-star hotel?”
