The provocative look in his eyes made Lin Mubai, who was already full of anger, instantly flare up. Several people nearby, always keeping an eye on him, quickly grabbed him and continuously reassured, "Mubai, Mubai, calm down, calm down. Impulsiveness is a demon. You’re a smart person, don’t fall for that man’s trick."
Anyone with eyes could see that the man was deliberately provoking tonight.
This was the first time Xi Shaoqi and others had met Zhan Qiyi, yet they were already aware of his existence—Vince Airlines’ chief CEO
—a person who rarely showed up in the media, yet couldn’t be ignored. But what puzzled everyone was what kind of relationship this person had with An Nan, and why would Young Master Lin be so angry upon seeing him.
Soon, two words surfaced in everyone’s minds: ’romantic rival.’ The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the N()velFire.net
These two words made everyone look at each other again. With such a powerful rival, could someone still win the beauty’s heart as they wished? Probably not, even if successful, the cost would be extraordinary.
Everyone’s attention was focused on An Nan and the departing man’s back. Meanwhile, the Huo siblings were completely overlooked. Not only was Huo Bingxuan unable to accept this fact, but Huo Boxuan, who was always accustomed to attention, found it even harder to accept. Yet, he retained a bit of calmness, using it to pull his sister away, sternly warning, "Huo Bingxuan, if you want the Huo Family to disappear completely from B City and lose this affluent life, then continue making a fuss here."
This was the first time in so many years that he spoke such harsh words to his sister, yet he had no regrets, even thinking he was late in saying them.
He truly felt headache over this brainless sister of his, and simultaneously came to a realization that Lin Mubai would never be interested in his sister. It seemed that this time, he needed to discuss with the family, and if nothing else worked, send her abroad; otherwise, the Huo Family would indeed fall because of this brainless sister.
However, Huo Boxuan, despite calculating everything, never thought that the Huo Family would ultimately fall, and it was due to his choice in women.
His words had an effect, and Huo Bingxuan finally stopped causing a scene, but her unwilling gaze remained on Lin Mubai’s back: "Why? Why don’t you like me? Why?" Her voice no longer held unwillingness, anger, nor ferocity; there was only a plea.
At the same time, her voice drew everyone’s attention, but among these gazes, there was not a trace of pity, only disgust. As for Lin Mubai, whom Huo Bingxuan was obsessed with, he was angrily preoccupied for a while, then left the private room to follow. In a short time, his smart mind already quickly calculated: he had to follow no matter what, better than letting someone else get ahead. Losing a wife and regretting it later, what does face matter? That’s all in the past. His pride lay in bringing a wife into the household registry, Lin Mubai thought as he quickly walked out of the room.
From beginning to end, he completely ignored Huo Bingxuan.
Or it could be said that in his eyes and heart, there was never any place for this woman, Huo Bingxuan.
