“Shut up.” Nan Xing clenched her fists and shouted at Rui Jing.
“I can shut up, but some things can’t be changed just because I shut up.” After saying that, Rui Jing returned to her seat.
Nan Xing’s eyes were red with anger, but she feared it would affect her makeup.
“Hongsheng, come pick me up. I miss you. Also, the bag you asked me about last time has arrived today. Accompany me to get it.”
Rui Jing felt that she would never be able to make that coquettish sound in her entire life. Moreover, she felt like vomiting.
“See you in half an hour. I’ll wait for you in the dormitory.”
After the phone call, Nan Xing felt that she did not need to argue with that country bumpkin with no future, and her mood was much better. However, when she saw Rui Jing fiddling with the new camera, she could not help but frown and say sourly, “Your whole family sold everything and finally bought you a camera?”
Rui Jing waved the camera in her hand and suddenly laughed, “You mean this? Ah, you don’t know. Wanli gave it to me.”
“You’ve met Lin Wanli?”
“It’s not just me. Tong La met her too. We even ate together and went shopping.
It felt like we went back to two years ago.” Rui Jing deliberately provoked her,
“You and Wanli are best friends. Don’t tell me you haven’t met each other yet?”
“Of course I have.” Nan Xing said stubbornly, “We met long ago. I just didn’t know that she could still remember you, insignificant people.”
“It’s good that you’ve met her. Otherwise, I would have thought that you couldn’t contact her.”
Nan Xing felt guilty and didn’t dare to continue the conversation, so she took her phone and wallet and left the dormitory.
At the same time, she felt very upset. Why could Lin Wanli meet the two good-for-nothings in the dormitory but not reply to her messages? Could she already know about what happened at the hotel two years ago?
However, if Lin Wanli had known about it, it would have been impossible for her to remain silent for such a long time. Therefore, she could not panic. It could also be because Lin Wanli knew she had a rich boyfriend, so she felt inferior and did not want to contact her. After all, how could a former rich heiress tolerate her follower stepping on her head?
At the moment, she could only guess like that. However, she was also worried because Lin Wanli knew about her family background. She was only glad that Lin Wanli did not know that she had not broken up with that country bumpkin.
If someone offered to give money, why not?
He did it willingly.
She would return it to him when she married into a rich family. Wasn’t that a kind of investment?
If Lin Wanli hadn’t experienced two lifetimes, she probably wouldn’t have known she still had that poor boyfriend.
In fact, Nan Xing and the rich man from the Yue Group met a little later than in her previous life. In her previous life, she was forced to marry Zhou Tingyang. It was her wedding banquet that indirectly led Nan Xing to encounter the rich man from the Yue Group. However, she disappeared for two years in the current lifetime, so the trajectory changed.
However, that was not important.
Some people were still ambitious and would return to their starting point sooner or later.
Sometimes, being a villain was really addictive, especially when she saw someone’s beautiful dream being shattered. At that moment, Lin Wanli would like to drink a few more glasses.
Night fell in Jinchuan, and dusk descended.
Huo Jiuxiao woke up from his nap and regained his energy. He changed into a new black suit and left the house.
Lin Xueyi brought Youran to the door and saw Huo Jiuxiao’s figure. She wanted to greet him, but when she saw the hostility in him, she didn’t go any closer.
Before Lin Wanli headed to the Yue Group, she had informed her that Huo Jiuxiao would be going out to handle some matters at night.
Although she was afraid, she was still willing to try her best to understand.
After all, it was this son-in-law who protected her daughter and granddaughter very well.
She had heard from Aunt Qi. There were some things that even Lin Wanli herself didn’t know, but Huo Jiuxiao had done a lot.
“Father…Father.” Little Youran might have seen her father’s figure, and she could now clearly call out her father and mother.
[Your father is already far away. Little silly, shout louder next time.]
Lin Xueyi thought Huo Jiuxiao had already left, but who knew he would return? Of course, he didn’t hear Youran’s voice, although he really wanted to know how cute his daughter’s soft voice was.
“Why did you…”
Huo Jiuxiao walked up to Lin Xueyi and passed Youran’s toy that was in his pocket to her.
Little Youran immediately started dancing.
“Thank you for your help.” After saying that to Lin Xueyi, Huo Jiuxiao left Yujing Peak.
Although he had lost a family member, he still had his bloodline. Moreover, Huo Youran had his and Lin Wanli’s blood flowing in her. It was like an invisible rope that forever bound the three of them together.
Therefore, he was no longer afraid of losing them.
At the entrance of Yujing Peak, Song Huaishu had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Huo Jiuxiao come out, he immediately opened the car door for him, “Master, I’ve brought him there.”
Huo Jiuxiao stepped into the car, and the light in his eyes was temporarily extinguished.
At seven-thirty in the evening, in the basement of the Diheng Building.
Lu Xunyan was tied up and thrown to the ground. His body was covered in wounds of varying severity.
Soon, the door to the basement was pushed open. Huo Jiuxiao, who was dressed in a suit, walked in with a few subordinates.
He sat down on the sofa not far away from Lu Xunyan like a high and mighty god. Then, he spread his legs and propped his elbows on his knees. He looked at Lu Xunyan and said, “It was really hard to find you and a waste of money.”
Lu Xunyan looked at Huo Jiuxiao in disbelief. He didn’t understand why he had tied him up. After all, he felt that he had hidden himself very well in his subjective consciousness. Huo Jiuxiao shouldn’t have discovered that he had colluded with the Huo family and betrayed him.
“Jiuxiao, Uncle was wrong. Uncle has really turned over a new leaf. I won’t gamble in the future.”
Huo Jiuxiao looked at his fingernails and asked him with extreme pressure, “Do you think you can continue acting?”
[Impossible, he can’t possibly Imow!]
“How is it impossible?” Huo Jiuxiao suddenly laughed, but even though he was smiling, there was hatred and tears in his eyes, “You only told the Huo Family that I was deaf. I’m afraid you don’t know about something else.”
Lu Xunyan’s body suddenly trembled, and he felt cold.
[No, I didn’t mean it. I was set up by the Huo Family!]
“Just because the Huo Family set you up, you wanted to pay with my life?”
After hearing Huo Jiuxiao’s words, Lu Xunyan’s eyes widened.
[You know what I’m thinking? How is that possible?]
However, at that moment, Huo Jiuxiao’s expression was very playful. It was as if he was looking at something transparent. It was as if nothing could escape his eyes.
“The Huo Family has given me such a big gift. Should I return the favor? Since Uncle is in the position of an envoy, I’ll leave the matter of sending gifts to you….”
