Huo You knew Huo Tian well. She was the same in her previous life. She looked brash but was actually very unsociable by nature.
When she was in the Huo Family, Huo Tian would reluctantly socialize at the request of her parents. However, after marrying Si Huan, Huo Tian was spoiled to become more and more easygoing. She never went to any social events that she didn’t like. Even if there were unavoidable banquets and activities, she never forced herself to make small talk with people she didn’t like.
The truth was, Huo You didn’t detest actively performing well in social activities, but she didn’t like Huo Tian to have privileges that she didn’t have.
Huo You couldn’t help but smile smugly at the thought of how the plan she and He Yu came up with was about to succeed.
The attendant felt a little creeped out when she saw Huo You smiling inexplicably at the lounge door. She asked carefully, “Miss Huo, what else do you need? I’ll get a colleague to serve you.”
Under the light, a strange gleam seemed to flash in Huo You’s eyes. The attendant was shocked and cold sweat broke out on her back.
Huo You said in a low voice, “There’s no need to trouble yourself. I just need you to tell the person inside something.”
The attendant felt her heart skip a beat. “May I ask, what do you need my help to tell her?”
Perhaps it was because of the psychological effects, but the attendant actually felt that Huo You’s tone was a little eerie too. “Tell her that I’ll let her slowly lose everything. This is only the first step…”
Even after Huo You left far away, The attendant still felt a little creeped out. He carefully pushed open the door and entered the lounge…
Without waiting for the attendant to say anything, Huo Tian said, “I already know what Huo You wants to say to me.”
The attendant was stunned, but her professionalism was very high. She immediately restrained any bits of her unprofessional demeanor and said respectfully, “Miss Huo Tian, is there anything else I can help you with?”
Huo Tian glanced at the desserts on the table and said regretfully, “Put away the rest of the desserts and then bring me to look for Si Huan.”
Huo Tian was led by the attendant through a quiet garden, still wondering what Huo You’s words meant.
She didn’t think that it was just a casual threat, but she didn’t think Huo You could do anything that would harm her.
Given what Huo You said about slowly losing everything important from now on, it was obvious that Huo You’s first step of the plan was being implemented.
However, at the Si Family’s banquet, Si Huan was the only one who could have connections with Huo Tian. Was Huo You planning to make a move against Si Huan?
Huo Tian felt ridiculous after coming to this conclusion. Although she didn’t know how capable Si Huan was, Huo Tian knew that Si Huan was definitely not a simple character. It would be foolish for Huo You to provoke Si Huan with her petty tricks.
Huo Tian felt that there couldn’t be such a foolish person in the world. Therefore, even though she guessed that Huo You had done something bad, she came to affirm the situation with an uncertain attitude.
However, when the attendant led Huo Tian to the lounge behind the garden, Huo Tian saw that the members of the Si Family looked like they had been twisted together into a rope, fighting to be the first to bite off a piece of meat from Si Huan.
Only then did Huo Tian realize that she had underestimated Huo You. She actually had the guts and was very capable of implementing such a bold idea.
She wondered if Si Huan would make Huo You’s dream come true…
Of course, Si Huan wouldn’t let himself be left to the disposal of the Si Family’s members just like Huo You and He Yu had imagined.
Moreover, Si Huan had also seen Huo Tian, who had come over. How could he let Huo Tian see him suffering in defeat?
Hence, after Si Li stood up and finished talking about how they wanted Si Huan to hand over more control over the family business to them for the Si Family’s development.
Si Huan only smiled mockingly and said, “Third Granduncle, uncles, and cousins, today is the Si Corporation’s anniversary celebration. Various companies will also be having a one-month-long celebration. I didn’t want to hurt everyone’s reput`ation under such circumstances, but you guys came to find trouble for me…”
An uncle who was more than 50 years old said with a grim expression, “Si Huan, we’re your elders after all. How can you be so rude? To think that you would say such things?”
“You guys were the ones who wanted to talk business with me just now, and now you’re also the ones who want to talk about kinship and etiquette with me.” Si Huan smiled and shook his head. “You guys aren’t young anymore. To think that you’re acting so shamelessly in front of me, a high school student who hasn’t graduated. To get money, you guys don’t want your face anymore?”
All the Si Family’s members who were staring at him covetously all had grim expressions on their faces. Some of them, who still had some conscience left, clearly looked guilty…
There was a refined-looking young man who was Si Huan’s cousin. He tried to persuade him in a low voice, “Si Huan, we’re not coveting your assets. We just feel that you’re still young and might end up acting on impulse…”
