Bai Moliang was a little frustrated. He actually didn’t really like Huo Xishen and he was too scheming. Just like Tang Qing said, he was a sly old fox.

  He just couldn’t help it because his younger sister liked him.

  Staring at Leng Yuxi’s tear-stained face, he couldn’t help but ask, “Yuxi, must you really marry Huo Xishen?”


  Leng Yuxi nodded and said, “Yes, I must marry Huo Xishen, I’ve already made my mind up to be with him.”


  “But he’s already married.”


  “So what? Even if he’s married, he can get married too. Besides, as long as I can be together with him, I won’t mind if I can’t marry him.”


  ‘Why is my sister so stubborn?’


  ‘Our parents are not that stubborn.’


  Bai Moliang was feeling helpless. He took out his handkerchief and wiped the tears at the corners of her eyes. “Alright, as long as you want it, I’ll help you get it regardless of the price.”


  Leng Yuxi smiled and suddenly hugged Bai Moliang. “Brother, I knew you were the best to me!”


  “Okay, look at how you’re crying. It’s your birthday and you don’t even know to restrain yourself a little. Be careful, lest you get doomed next year.”


  Leng Yuxi punched his body hard and said, “Stop cursing me, you’re the one who’s going to suffer bad luck next year!”


  Huo Qingyuan and her sordid friends were still playing outside and when Yan Jinyi saw Huo Xishen coming out, she frantically went forth and asked, “Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law, where are you going?”


  Yan Jinyi glared at her and said, “Let’s go home.”


  Sensing that Yan Jinyi’s tone was hostile, Huo Qingyuan cringed a little. ‘Wow, Second Sister-in-law is so fierce, Leng Yuxi must have made things hard for her.’


  Just as they were about to get inside the car, a person dressed in waiter’s clothing scurried over and said, “Please wait a moment, Mr. Huo.”


  “Mr. Huo, Old Master wants to meet you.”


  ‘Old Master?’


  Yan Jinyi couldn’t help but look at Huo Xishen. ‘He should be the father of the oddball siblings.’


  ‘Well, Huo Xishen has just embarrassed his precious daughter, it’s only right that he would want to speak to Huo Xishen.’


  Without even lifting his eyelids, Huo Xishen answered indifferently, “I’m not going.”


  The waiter was put in a difficult spot. “But Old Master is still waiting in the study, please don’t make things hard for me.”


  Huo Xishen still didn’t bother about him. Just as he was about to get inside the car, Yan Jinyi suddenly tugged his sleeve.

  He raised his thick brows and looked her in the eye as he asked the question.

  “Mr. Huo, you’d better go, lest I get into trouble.”


  He pursed his lips and took a large step forward. “Show me the way.”


  The waiter quickly bowed to Yan Jinyi before hurriedly walking in front of Huo Xishen.

  “Second Sister-in-law, the Huo family is still in a good position, it’s okay not to go.”


  Yan Jinyi poked Huo Qingyuan’s face and asked, “You think I’m afraid of offending the Bai family?”


  Huo Qingyuan seemed to be asking with her eyes, ‘Is it not?’


  “Your Second Brother said that he’s going to clarify things and make his stand clear to them, lest they accuse me when I teach them a lesson in the future.”


  Huo Qingyuan came to a sudden realization. ‘Second Sister-in-law is so vicious!’


  ‘Second Brother must have directly rejected or even warned Leng Yuxi. When Leng Yuxi or the Bai family comes confronting Second Sister-in-law using Second Brother as a reason, Second Sister-in-law would be able to teach her a lesson using the excuse of “being harassed and threatened”.

  Yan Jinyi looked around and pointed to the fountain not far away. “I’ll go there for a while, call me when your Second Brother is out.”


  “Oh.”


  Coincidentally, soon after they sat down, Leng Yuxi brought a bevy of fancily dressed wealthy heiresses over.

  “Hey, this lady seems to be a stranger. Who are you……” Leng Yuxi asked, pretending to be confused when she saw Yan Jinyi.

  Yan Jinyi rolled her eyes without saying anything.
