Chapter 189: Chapter 189: How Can My Wife Borrow Money From An Outsider?

Huo Qingyuan shook her head. “Sister-in-law, I really don’t have any. Who would bring money around with them everywhere they go?”

Yan Jinyi frowned and thought, ‘Huo Xishen came home straight from the airport. Maybe…’

‘Forget it, that dog is so stingy.’

She glanced at Tang Qing again and said, “Hey, give me 100 yuan, I can…”

Before she finished, Huo Xishen took out a banknote from his wallet and said, “How can my wife ask someone else for money?”

Staring at the money on his palm, Yan Jinyi couldn’t help but look at Huo Xishen. ‘Wow, for once, the miser is not being stingy!’

Fearing that Huo Xishen would go back on his word, Yan Jinyi snatched the banknote away from him and handed it to Chen Yulian. “Since I’ve given you ten slaps, here’s 100 yuan for you. Keep the change, you don’t have to thank me.”

She would receive a million if she got slapped a hundred times, but now she’s only getting 100 yuan for being slapped ten times.

Chen Yulian’s chest heaved up and down. ‘Yan Jinyi is being such a huge bully!’

“What are you waiting for? Are you planning to keep her around for dinner?” Yan Jinyi raised her eyebrows and ordered coldly, “Drag her away. She’s a fool to come to me for a loan.”

She scolded her while making her way back into the mansion and everyone stared at her back.

‘Second Young Mistress Huo is…quite fierce.’

“You guys seemed to have complaints about Second Young Mistress Huo just now, didn’t you?” Tang Qing suddenly pointed at the few wives of rich men and continued, “I’ve taken a liking to her and I’m planning to woo her, so those who look down on her are looking down on me too!”

Huo Xishen glanced askance at Tang Qing. “Mr. Tang, sometimes dreaming too much is an illness.”

“Are you worried, Mr. Huo?”

Huo Xishen said calmly, “She’s my wife, there’s nothing to be worried about.”

Tang Qing hated it whenever Huo Xishen behaved nonchalantly when talking to him.

‘Damn it, do you think you’re the only one who knows to put on airs?’

Tang Qing was just about to lose his temper. Glancing at the people present, Huo Xishen said, “I don’t want anyone to spread rumors about my wife after you leave this place today.”

Everyone nodded.

Since Huo Xishen had already said so and they were no fools either, they definitely wouldn’t dare to spread any rumors.

The banquet ended late at night.

After seeing the guests away, Huo Xian stopped smiling and stared at his grandchildren with a stern expression. “All of you, come in.”

Huo Qingyuan couldn’t help but feel worried for Yan Jinyi. ‘Will Grandpa form a bad impression of Second Sister-in-law after what happened today? Second Sister-in-law’s aunt is too detestable. I must teach her a good lesson the next time I see her!’

As soon as he sat down, Huo Xian knocked the cane in his hand against the ground. “Where’s

Jinyi?”

“Grandpa, Second Sister-in-law should be in the room.”

“Xishen, ask Jinyi to come here.”

Before Huo Xishen said anything, Yan Jinyi had already appeared at the stairway with a large bag of potato chips. “You don’t have to go to the trouble, Mr. Huo.”

Everyone looked at Yan Jinyi, who had already changed into her pajamas and was holding a bag of chips, even though they were all still dressed to the nines. There were some tears in her eyes and she should have just woken up from a nap as her hair was messy too. She looked completely different from her usual domineering, scheming, and sly self.

At this moment, Yan Jinyi looked a little cute and vulnerable.

“What are all of you doing here at such a late hour instead of sleeping?”

Yan Jinyi rubbed her eyes wearily.

‘We were busy receiving and entertaining guests, but you were sleeping upstairs?’

Seeing that all eyes were on her, Yan Jinyi scratched her hair and asked with a look of confusion, “What are you looking at me for? Do you want to molest me?”

“…”

‘What outrageous words did you just say!?! Grandpa is still here!’

Huo Xishen’s eyelids moved and he thought, ‘She really needs to be disciplined.’
