Yin Na arrived at the residence with Xu Wenhai and found the preparation for Wang Hao's marriage had started. Initially, she was returning with her father and brother, but Xu Wenhai asked them if he could drop her later since he wanted to converse more with her.

Huo Jin was asking the florist about the flowers when his eyes fell on Yin Na and also Xu Wenhai. "Just go to General Wang. He will tell you about it," Huo Jin sent the florist to General Wang, who was present in the main courtyard of the residence.

Huo Jin walked to them and greeted Xu Wenhai. "Greetings to the son of Lord Xu," He lifted both hands and joined them along with a bow. Xu Wenhai smiled and bowed back to him.

Huo Jin looked at Yin Na, who was not looking happy to him.

'So, he is Huo Jin,' Xu Wenhai thought.

"It is my pleasure to meet Huo Jin," He said and put his hands down. Huo Jin turned his gaze back at him and welcomed him.

"Father is resting and General Wang is busy in the marriage preparation. Please, this way," Huo Jin waved his hand in the air, formally when Xu Wenhai shook his head

"Huo Jin, I am not here to rest. I will give a helping hand to him in the marriage-related work," Xu Wenhai stated.

"You do not need to trouble yourself. Go home as your parents must be looking for you," Yin Na kept the tone polite despite talking to him in an informal tone.

Huo Jin was amazed to see that Yin Na got exceptionally relaxed around Xu Wenhai.

"Yin Na, Father, and Mother will be happy if I help you all. Also, for our marriage, I need to understand your family too," Xu Wenhai stated and gazed at Huo Jin, "Am I right?"

"Since you will be the future Son-in-law of this family, it is not acceptable to let you work in the Wang Residence. We have plenty of servants, who will do the work," Huo Jin asserted. He did not want Xu Wenhai to stay in the Wang Residence for long.

"An ideal Son-in-law is the one who respects the family of his wife too; who helps them in every work," Xu Wenhai reasoned and stepped forward.

"Huo Jin, you seemed to do a lot of work alone. I will give you a helping hand," He stated and grinned. Yin Na found the way of their conversation strange, but before she could interrupt them, she heard Wang Hao's voice.

"Brother," she walked to him and passed him a smile. Wang Hao and Xu Wenhai bowed at each other.

"Thank you for bringing my sister safely."

"It was duty towards my future wife," Xu Wenhai stated. Huo Jin narrowly gazed at him and thought to leave when Wang Hao stopped him.

"Huo Jin, could you please check the courtyard? A few of them are still confused about the work in the main hall. I am thinking of going to the Palace myself to bring the Emperor," Wang Hao asked the kind help of Huo Jin, who agreed to him.

"The Emperor is coming here?" Yin Na asked.

"Yes." He turned to glance at Xu Wenhai and said, "I will prepare the carriage for you."

"It's not needed, General Wang. I want you to let me help with such a great event. In your absence, I will keep a check on everything and also help Huo Jin," He offered his help.

"How can I let you work here? The servants will do the work. You shall return home," Wang Hao stated.

"General Wang, my father will get angry at me for not including myself in such a great event. Just treat me as equal to your brother or a friend." Wang Hao could not refuse Xu Wenhai as it would offend him.

"But please avoid the heavy work," Wang Hao urged him. "Huo Jin, don't let Minister Xu do any hard work," he told him, who nodded his head.

"I will be back soon," Wang Hao said and then left for the Palace.

Once he left, Huo Jin told Yin Na that she should take some rest. She ignored him and walked away. Xu Wenhai noticed it and then gazed at Huo Jin.

"It seems that Yin Na is angry at you," he said and came near him.

Huo Jin ignored him and went towards the main courtyard. Xu Wenhai followed him by putting his hands behind his back.

The courtyard was decorated in red color. The large red carpet was put on the main walkway to the main hallway. Xu Wenhai stepped on the carpet when Huo Jin pulled him back.

"You will make it dirty. You have come from outside," Huo Jin said.

Xu Wenhai looked at his shoes and hummed at him.

"Why don't you just sit?" Huo Jin suggested to him.

"Why? Is Huo Jin afraid that General Wang will appreciate my work if I intervene?" Xu Wenhai's question made Huo Jin chuckle. He walked ahead without answering him and started to talk with the worker.

Xu Wenhai came near them and overheard their conversation.

"Complete it by the evening and also give a fine finish to the palanquin," Huo Jin told him. "Keep the space broad," he stated.

"Don't put the poles there. Also, use the white flowers to decorate them along with the large red curtains around them," Huo Jin instructed the worker, who was a little far from him.

Xu Wenhai removed his shoes and walked on the carpet when Huo Jin's voice stopped him. "What are you doing?"

"I will check if the preparation inside the hall is completed," Xu Wenhai said and went towards the main hall when Huo Jin stopped him.

"The work is not completed yet. Why don't you stay quiet?" Huo Jin was getting annoyed at him, and he was not aware of the reason behind his annoyance.

"Oh. No worries.. I shall check it once though," Xu Wenhai said and walked forward, thus ignoring the words of Huo Jin.
