The others also glared at Ye Beisheng. Although they did not say anything, the disgust in their eves seemed to be overflowing.
The middle-aged lady said sarcastically, “You’re indeed from the countryside. I wonder what Xiting sees in you. You didn’t even greet me when you saw me and you don’t even know who I…”
“Who are you?”
A casual question interrupted the middle-aged lady.
Huo Xiting turned his head casually and glanced at the woman from head to toe. He took his time with the question.
The middle-aged lady’s expression instantly stiffened!
Huo Xiting actually asked ‘who are you’? If Huo Shiting asked this question on purpose, wasn’t he only doing this to humiliate her?
The lady smiled guiltily. “Xiting, you don’t have to pretend that you don’t know me because of this woman. She’s just a sl*t. It’s her problem if she’s ill-mannered. We won’t say anything about you, so why do you have to…”
The others came back to their senses.
‘Oh, the ninth master was asking on purpose?’
‘I knew it. How could the ninth master not know anyone from the Huo family?
He must have been afraid that Ye Beisheng would embarrass herself, so he pretended not to know her and asked her who she was.
Although this was a way to help Ye Beisheng, wouldn’t it embarrassed their elders?
For the sake of a woman, he did not care about his own family. This woman was indeed a shameless vixen!
“I really don’t know you. Who are you?” Huo Xiting broke the middle-aged lady’s last bit of fantasy. He sneered, “Do I need to know every Tom, Dick, and Harry in the Huo family?”
The middle-aged woman staggered. She didn’t expect Huo Xiting to be so rude and call her a stranger.
But, what could she do? She did not have the guts to refute the ninth master!
Huo Xiting didn’t even look at her as he held Ye Beisheng’s hand. “I’ll take you to Grandma.”
Ye Beisheng nodded.
However, before she could take a step forward, Madam Huo suddenly stood up. “Xiting, your grandmother is still taking an afternoon nap. All of us have been waiting for you to come back. Now that you’re home, you should sit down and chat for a while before going straight to your grandmother. Others might think that I’m not a good mother.”
Her gaze fell on the young woman who sat to her left.
The woman was about 20 years old and she was blushing.
Madam Huo sighed. “I know you don’t like Ningxue, so I won’t force her onto you anymore. Look, this is your aunt’s niece! She just graduated from university. I was just thinking that you need a personal assistant or even a secretary. Why don’t you take her in?”
The middle-aged woman immediately became excited. “That’s right, Xiting.
My niece graduated from a famous university. She’s much better than some wild chickens.”
She contemptuously glanced at Ye Beisheng and said, “Xiting, she graduated with a design major. Don’t you have a jewelry store? It’s just right for my niece to be your secretary!”
Ye Beisheng looked at the woman on the sofa.
The young woman got up shyly and walked to Huo Xiting. Her cheeks were red and she trembled like a weak rabbit. Her voice was gentle and slender. “Hello, Ninth Master…”
Ye Beisheng raised an eyebrow.
It wasn’t right for Madam Huo to present a woman to Huo Shiting in front of her.
The middle-aged lady was extremely excited and ran forward. “Ninth master, our dear Yingying gets shy easily. Please forgive her in the future. Oh right, it would be best if the others do not do anything stupid to embarrass the Huo family out of jealousy.”
Bai Ying gently tugged at the middle-aged lady’s sleeve. “Auntie, don’t worry. I won’t let you down.”
“Yingying, hurry up and pack up. You’ll go home with the ninth master tonight.” The middle-aged lady was being overly-enthusiastic.
Ye Beisheng crossed her arms in front of her chest and interrupted the middle-aged woman with a cold tone.. “Go home with Xiting? Why? Do we still have to pay for her food and accommodation once we’ve hired her as a secretary?”
