When Yan Jinyi arrived home, Huo Zihang was already sitting on the sofa. Upon seeing her, he scurried towards her and asked, "Is Huo Qingyuan in love? How's the guy she's dating? I bet he definitely isn't as handsome and rich as I am."
"He has better grades than you do."
Yan Jinyi said coldly.
'Damn!'
'If my grades are better, wouldn't the other men line up to jump off a building in guilt?'
"Did you beat that guy up?"
Yan Jinyi, who had already reached the corner of the stairs, suddenly stopped. "Why should I beat him up?"
Huo Zihang clearly remembered the time when Jiaojiao tried to scam him and Yan Jinyi said that one would have to be able to take a beating in order to become a member of the Huo Family.
It was proven that he and Huo Qingyuan were quite resistant to beatings.
As for his brothers...
'Forget it, immortals do not compare with mortals.'
"What does that guy's family do? Although I usually do not care about Huo Qingyuan, she is my own sister, her IQ is low and she's stupid. Didn't she get into a fight with Zhao Xinyue over a man last time? Perhaps, that man is Huo Qingyuan's boyfriend."
Yan Jinyi stopped walking and carefully recalled, only to realize that it was really possible.
As a result, that fool Huo Qingyuan suffered a beating for nothing and managed to snag such a lousy guy.
"Do you people of the Huo Family all have bad eyesight?"
Displeased to hear her words, Huo Zihang retorted, "Who said so? The people of the Huo Family have the best eyesight and judgment. All the tycoons in this area have to follow us when it comes to buying things."
At this point, Huo Zihang raised his chin proudly. "Last year, Second Brother won a koi painting during an auction, and since then, many wealthy families hung similar paintings in their homes."
"…"
'Huo Xishen's IQ is indeed a bit higher than yours.'
'Well, he's got better taste too.'
'How else could he marry me?'
"I heard that your grandfather's birthday is coming up."
"Isn't he our grandfather?" Huo Zihang was puzzled by her words. "There are still two months to go, by then both my brothers will be back. Big brother might be home earlier."
Yan Jinyi nodded.
Huo Chengyu, the eldest son of the Huo Family and the youngest medical professor in the nation, was a person of status.
"I'm going to take a shower, call me when it's time for dinner."
Huo Qingyuan knew that she might have triggered Yan Jinyi and hence, deliberately asked a few friends out to a bar until late at night.
She carefully opened the door only to find that, to her surprise, the lights were still on in the living room on the first floor.
An ominous premonition arose within her and she looked at the sofa to see that Yan Jinyi was indeed there.
She was wearing a conservative cartoon-print pajamas with her long hair tied into a high ponytail on the back of her head. There was a beauty mask on her face and she was staring at her phone screen.
Recently, Yan Jinyi had become obsessed with a cliché soap opera which Huo Qingyuan recommended.
"Hehe, Second Sister-in-law, you're still awake?"
She was exceptionally polite.
Yan Jinyi looked up and said, "Yes."
"Then, then I'll go back to my room to take a shower. Second Sister-in-law, rest early!"
As soon as she took two steps forward, Yan Jinyi suddenly stopped her.
"Hold it."
Huo Qingyuan immediately stood up straight and looked at Yan Jinyi with a smile on her face. "Second Sister-in-law, do you have any more orders for me?"
Yan Jinyi pulled the sheet mask away from her face and wriggled her finger at Huo Qingyuan. "Come over and sit down."
The eagle-eyed Huo Qingyuan had already seen the leather whip beside Yan Jinyi.
She shuddered and then slowly moved towards the seat that was farthest away from Yan Jinyi.
"Second Sister-in-law, is… is there something wrong?"
"Did you fight with Zhao Xinyue over this man previously?"
