So, he called Mother Xiao. Mother Xiao was so angry that she almost went crazy when she found out that Huo Yutan was the cause of Tianlang’s recent mishaps.
“I told you not to provoke such a jinx, but you didn’t believe me. If you hadn’t pulled her back from the gates of hell, she would have committed suicide dozens of times. How could she have the face to deal with you and the Xiao family?”
“Mom, she’s from the Huo family. We can’t afford to offend her.” Xiao Huaixing no longer wanted to struggle.
“She’s from a side branch…”
“Even if it’s a side branch, a year’s income is enough to buy ten Tianlang.
They’re different from the poor relatives of ordinary people like us.”
Mother Xiao was speechless when she heard that. She didn’t know that the Huo family’s side branch was so rich. “Just how rich is the Huo Family?”
“Last year’s financial report, the Huo Corporation’s revenue almost broke 100 billion.” In the past, Xiao Huaixing had no concept of this number. Even when he paid attention to the Huo family’s financial report, he felt that it had nothing to do with Huo Yutan. However, after Huo Yutan mocked him that day, he spent money to check the current status of the Huo family’s third widow’s shares. Only then did he understand that if Huo Yu’an wanted to flatten Tianlang, it would be as easy as crushing an ant.
“This… That much?” Mother Xiao stuttered after hearing that.
Mother Xiao didn’t know much about the Huo Corporation. She only felt that since the Huo family could marry their daughter over, it wasn’t a big deal. Thinking about the side branch of the Xiao family and the people who rented houses, she was even less interested in Huo Yu’an.
Thinking about what she had done to Huo Yu’an, Mother Xiao felt a chill in her heart.
“It’s more prominent than you think.”
“Then why are you still protecting your little lover at a time like this? Even if you can’t get Huo Yu’an’s forgiveness, you can’t make things too bad. What about the Xiao family?”
At this time, Xiao Huaixing laughed at himself and said, “Mom, our whole family played with her. Protect Wen Lan and we still have a chance to live.”
Because if he could get rid of Wen Lan, he might be able to give Wen Lan another push. When that time came, Wen Lan would come back to life, which meant that Tianlang could recover its position.
At this moment, Mother Xiao’s mood was very complicated. She seemed to have forgotten that Huo Yutan had come to the Xiao family and discussed the relationship between Xiao Huaixing and Wen Lan with her.
“Then…Alright then.”
Mother Xiao had no other choice but to blame Huo Yu’an in her heart. She was really too low-key. Why didn’t she tell her about the Huo family’s prominence earlier?
She felt that she was very compatible.
At nine o’clock in the morning, Wen Lan, who had already stopped working, had been feeling uneasy ever since Xiao Huaixing left. She felt that the way Xiao Huaixing looked at her when he came out in the morning was very different from usual.
She was anxious and didn’t dare to call to ask, afraid that she would push Xiao Huaixing too hard and it would backfire.
At this moment, Wen Lan’s phone screen lit up. It was the unknown number from yesterday. There was a reply. “Didn’t you want to see me? Come to Yuebo
Hotel. ”
Wen Lan was secretly delighted. Thinking that she was qualified to negotiate with Huo Yu’an, she dressed up as if she were attending a banquet and drove to the hotel address Huo Yut an had given her.
Because according to the timeline, she was Xiao Huaixing’s real wife. Huo Yutan had come out of nowhere and taken over the magpie’s nest, so she was full of confidence.
However, when she walked into Huo Yutan’s room with her head held high, she suddenly felt uncertain.
At this moment, Huo Yu’an was not wearing any makeup, but her bare face was beautiful and her facial features were exquisite. She had the temperament of a socialite that could be seen without any makeup.
She was not wearing any jewelry, only a red watch on her wrist. However, that watch had once appeared in an auction in a certain country and was worth tens of millions.
The most amazing thing was her gaze. It carried the natural superiority of the Huo family. Even if she looked at people normally, she would still give off a sense of condescending oppression.
The moment Wen Lan met her gaze, she was immediately repelled by her sharp gaze.
Huo Yu’an stared at Wen Lan, then raised her right eye slightly, giving off a
playful and sexy vibe.
“Miss Wen, you can start your performance now.”
Huo Yutan made an inviting gesture.
Wen Lan swallowed nervously and wanted to speak, but she stuttered and could not say anything.
“Don’t be nervous. I don’t eat people. I’ve learned about your relationship with Xiao Huaixing from the side. It’s been eight years, it really wasn’t easy. To be honest, even I feel sad for you. So, don’t worry, I’ll quit and let the two of you get married.”
“Really?” Wen Lan’s eyes lit up and asked hurriedly.
“You’re so naive,” replied Huo Yutan with a smile.
The Huo Yu’an at this moment was completely different from the Huo Yu’an at the previous moment.
At this moment, Huo Yu’an was like a demon that had just crawled out of hell.
“I was the one who released all the dirt on you.” Huo Yu’an took out the deck of cards with three cards missing and threw them in front of Wen Lan.
Wen Lan squatted down, trembling slightly as she looked at the dirt from the past.
“I restarted Wen Xin’s film. The money I used was the betrothal gift Xiao
Huaixing gave me.”
At this point, Huo Yu’an wore the hotel’s white slippers and slowly walked towards Wen Lan. She squatted down in front of a pile of poker cards and pinched Wen Lan’s chin hard. “I’ll only ask you one thing. Do you want to be beaten by these cards every day, or do you want to betray Xiao Huaixing and fight for a chance to live?”
Wen Lan did not dare to meet Huo Yu’an’s eyes because she felt a chill run down her spine.
Huo Yu’an reached out and used her hands to straighten Wen Lan’s face.
“I hate it when people look away when I’m talking. Don’t you know that’s very rude?”
“Yes… I’m sorry.” Wen Lan was so frightened that she almost cried.
Huo Yutan shook off the face speechlessly, then got up and went to the sink.
She was speechless that she had actually lost to such an opponent.
No, it wasn’t considered a loss, but it wasn’t considered an opponent either, because this was originally a scam. It could only prove that her mind was filled with water in the past.
The Huo Family members should not pursue a normal and healthy life, at least not now. If she had to pay such a price for thinking about it, she should just obediently return to her position.
“Give me an answer. I don’t like people wasting my time.”
Wen Lan stuttered and her brain seemed to be unable to work. She paused for a few more minutes before she replied, “Let me go. Let me go. I’m just a small artiste. ”
“You don’t want Xiao Huaixing anymore?”
“No, no, no. I don’t want him.”
“Is this your great love?” Huo Yutan laughed out loud because she found it ironic and ridiculous. She also felt sorry for Xiao Huaixing. “Since you don’t want it anymore, then… Let’s make a public statement..”
