“Let’s have a chat,” Bai Moliang said indifferently before turning around to go downstairs.

After being deep in thought for half a second, Huo Xishen strode forward to catch up with him.

The two of them strode to the garden. From afar, they could still see Yan Jinyi, Old Mr. and Mrs. Bai. Leng Jing was following behind, looking rather careful.

“I grew fond of Jinyi the moment I saw her but at that time, I began to be prejudiced against Jinyi because Yuxi had been really upset and I loved Yuxi very much.”

At that time, she even wanted to make Yan Jinyi her daughter-in-law.

Huo Xishen looked at Bai Moliang and said, “Got it.”

Bai Moliang was irked by his attitude. “Huo Xishen, in terms of seniority, I’m your brother. Please have a better attitude.”

“Does my wife approve of you?”

“…”

‘Damn it!’

It was no wonder that Tang Qing disliked him. Huo Xishen was too oblivious.

“Uncle Bai is nice. Otherwise, Darling wouldn’t have come here.”

After saying that, Huo Xishen walked towards Yan with steady footsteps.

Yan Jinyi had gained a lot of benefits from this trip to the Bai family’s residence. Huo Xishen could sense the joy that was coming from her.

“Darling, come over and play again next time.”

Yan Jinyi glanced at Bai Moliang who was behind Huo Xishen and asked, “Did he bully you?”

Bai Moliang was speechless.

‘Am I such a person to my sister?’

“He probably doesn’t dare to.”

The word ‘probably’ angered Bai Moliang again.

“Grandpa, Grandma, I’ll head home with Huo Xishen now. Come over and have some fun when you guys are free. We bought a riverside apartment in the city that offers quite a nice view.”

The elderly couple nodded and said smilingly, “Okay, okay, come home often too.”m

Yan Jinyi nodded and looked at Leng Jing. After hesitating for a moment, she bade goodbye to her. “Goodbye, Madam Bai.”

“Okay, let Moliang see you guys off.”

“It’s okay, I’ve been practicing driving lately.”

She deliberately said in a clipped and terse manner. Leng Jing and Bai Moliang glanced at each other awkwardly.

“Jinyi, I’m sorry, I was wrong.”

“It has nothing to do with you, Madam Bai. You didn’t let me off. We’re going to get going now. Goodbye.”

Huo Zihang and Huo Qingyuan were having dinner when they returned to the Huo family’s manor.

There were prawns and braised barbecue meat…

It seemed rather sumptuous.

“Second Brother, Second Sister, you’re back. Do you guys want to have some food?” asked Huo Qingyuan who slowly got up with a radiant smile when she saw Yan Jinyi.

“Why are you eating at such a late hour if you’re not hungry?”

Huo Qingyuan glared at Huo Zihang and remarked scornfully, “It’s all Third Brother’s fault. He said that it’s too lonely eating out there and he wants me to wait for him to knock off from work.”

“Huo Qingyuan, watch your words. I was clearly afraid that you’d be lonely!”

Huo Qingyuan looked rather disdainful.

The braised pork made by the Huo family’s chefs was delicious. After a moment of hesitation, Yan Jinyi picked up her chopsticks to have a mouthful of it.

However, as soon as she did, the greasiness overwhelmed her and her stomach began to churn.

“I must have eaten too much at the Bai family’s home. I’ll take a trip to the bathroom.”

The three of them stared at Yan Jinyi’s back, thinking otherwise.

After laying on the toilet bowl and barfing for a long time, she still felt queasy. For the first time, Yan Jinyi felt that braised pork was terrifying.

‘Seems like my stomach is sensible enough to stop me from eating too much, lest I become a pig.’

“Darling, are you okay?” Someone started knocking on the door at the right time.

After wiping his mouth, Huo Xishen opened the door and stood at the entrance with a cup of water. “Uncle Zhang got you some digestion pills. Take them.”

“What for? When have you ever seen me taking these stuff?”

After chugging some water, the queasy feeling and greasiness were greatly relieved.

Yan Jinyi heaved a sigh of relief. “I’m fine now. Shall we go back to the apartment tonight?”
