The Huo family is vast and wealthy, that’s one perspective. On the other side, the Huo family members are all proud, never resorting to intermarriage to enhance their power.
The fact that the matron of the Huo family was so eager to match Xia Shi with Jun Mochan was more because she liked Xia Shi, not her family background.
"Really, do you think you could enter the Huo family by marriage?"
Xu Zi realized she had spoken wrong and hastily rectified her statement: "No, I didn’t mean it like that, just hear me out."
"I don’t want to hear what you have to say now. Don’t show up in front of me in the future." Huo Yi shrugged off her hand and strode away.
After leaving the café, Huo Yi didn’t go home, but went straight to Jun Mochan’s office.
"Sir, you cannot come in without an appointment," the secretary stopped Huo Yi.
"Get out of my way." Huo Yi pushed past the secretary and went straight into Jun Mochan’s office.
Jun Mochan was communicating with the manager in charge of the new product launch. Upon seeing Huo Yi, he signaled the manager to leave.
"Brother, what’s up?" As the room emptied, Jun Mochan ensconced himself in his chair, watching him coolly.
As for Huo Yi going to see Ye Ranran, Jun Mochan knew.
He trusted Ye Ranran and he was confident that she was his alone now, and only had room for him.
"What do you want?" Huo Yi suddenly blurted out.
But Jun Mochan understood.
"All I seek is her and only her. Brother, you were the first one to let go of her, do you really think you still have a chance?" Jun Mochan looked at him as if he were a joke.
Huo Yi also felt like a joke.
"I’ve told you before, you would regret it eventually. Oh, and do you need me to remind you? That slap you gave her, you used quite a bit of force, her face was swollen for two days."
Huo Yi’s figure violently swayed, face as white as paper, clearly, his memory returned.
"And do you remember, if you were not my older brother, I would have shot you long ago?"
Seeing his pain, Jun Mochan felt extremely happy.
This was what he owed Ye Ranran.
Anything owed to her, he would reclaim it, one by one.
In the end, Huo Yi wasn’t very sure how he had left the J.C. building, all he knew was that he’d wandered out like a lost spirit.
With all these things happening in the Huo family, naturally, no one was there to look after Xia Shi.
With no one to watch her, Xia Shi sneaked out.
Her foot was still in a plaster, naturally, she couldn’t walk on her own, so she sat in a wheelchair and had someone push her around.
She didn’t really go anywhere, after leaving, she headed straight for the prison.
At this moment, Xie Yuan had just finished fighting. Although he won, his body was left with one slash after the other.
His plight was so pitiful and pathetic, where was the elegance he had before?
Xia Shi didn’t visit him as a normal visitor would, she went straight into the prison, standing right in front of Xie Yuan.
"Who are you?" Xie Yuan looked at Xia Shi, his mouth slightly curling upwards, casting her a glance of indifference.
"Do you want to get out?" Xia Shi did not answer him but threw out an alluring prospect.
Xie Yuan laughed as if he’d heard a huge joke: "You can let me out?"
"Of course, but you have to do something for me. Once you’ve done it, you can run as far as you can."
"What is it? Why should I agree to you?"
"I want you to help me kill someone, the same person you equally despise, that’s why I’m certain you will agree to help me." Xia Shi was extremely confident.
Xie Yuan seemed interested: "Who should I kill?"
"Ye Ranran." Xia Shi said word by word.
She wanted Ye Ranran dead.
