Chapter 838: Second Sister-in-law Has Gone Overboard
“Shut up, no one thinks you’re dumb if you don’t speak,” Huo Zihang rebuked scornfully.
As soon as he finished, the chopsticks in Yan Jinyi’s hands suddenly landed on the table. “What are you being so fierce for? She’s your sister. Huo Zihang, if I catch you bullying Huo Qingyuan again, I’ll make sure I knock your teeth out!”
Huo Zihang shuddered and suddenly grinned. He reached his hand out to pinch Huo Qingyuan’s face and teased, “I’m just joking, why are you being so serious?”
Huo Qingyuan said with a look of disdain, “Move your dirty hand away from me. You’re just scared because Second Sister-in-law is standing up for me.”
‘So why did I object to having this sister in the first place?’
Huo Zihang obediently went for a run, and the atmosphere at the table was temporarily harmonious until Zhang Guoquan came over in fear.
“Young Master, Second Young Master, Miss Leng said that she’s here to give Young Master his gift on behalf of her parents.”
Huo Chengyu looked at Yan Jinyi and said after hesitating for a moment, “Let her in.”
Yan Jinyi thought to herself with raised brows, ‘She must be doing it on purpose, huh?’
‘It’s definitely intentional.’
Afraid that Yan Jinyi would be upset, Shen Yan hurriedly leaned closer and explained, “Uncle Bai has always been on good terms with the Huo Family. Before Xishen took over the Huo Group, the Huo family faced a crisis, which they couldn’t have tided through without Uncle Bai’s help. Bear with it.”
Yan Jinyi nodded. Of course, she wouldn’t stoop low to Leng Yuxi’s level. However, Leng Yuxi had been acting like a madwoman just because she was born to a rich family. ‘Does she really think she owns this world?’
Soon, Leng Yuxi followed Zhang Guoquan in. She was still dressed like a little princess and was carrying a delicately wrapped gift box in her hand. Her eyes lit up the moment she saw Huo Xishen.
“Xishen, my parents sent me here to give Big Brother Huo his gift. Daddy picked it out before he went on a business trip and it’s been sitting at home. We were just waiting to give it to you today!”
“Miss Leng, it’s not my birthday today.” Huo Xishen didn’t even look at her. While speaking, he helped Yan Jinyi to the food.
Yan Jinyi continued eating at ease, making Leng Yuxi incredibly jealous.
“Big Brother Huo, here’s a gift from my parents.” She walked over and placed the gift on the table. Leng Yuxi then walked over to sit next to Huo Xishen. “Xishen, my feet are hurting from wearing heels. You won’t mind me sitting here, will you?”
Before Huo Xishen said anything, Yan Jinyi said smilingly, “Miss Leng, do you like drinking tea? Especially tea that’s extra green.”
Due to Huo Xishen’s presence, Leng Yuxi actually smile at Yan Jinyi, which was rare of her. “Miss Yan, drinking tea is also a kind of etiquette, which I will naturally learn.”
Yan Jinyi pretended to have come to a sudden realization. “I was wondering why you were talking like a green tea b**ch (a pretentious girl). Indeed, it’s because you drink so much tea.”
Only then did Leng Yuxi realize that Yan Jinyi was indirectly scolding her.
“Miss Yan, you’re Xishen’s wife after all. Do you always behave in such an uncultured manner? Aren’t you afraid of offending others?”
“My husband is not afraid of me offending others. What are you worried about?” As she said that, she moved the chair closer to Huo Xishen and reached out to hold his arm. “I can’t help that he dotes on me. No matter what I do, he finds it pleasing to the eye. I’m very troubled too!”
‘Second Sister-in-law, you’re really overboard. How can you bully others like this!?!’
Huo Qingyuan was watching with great interest while supporting cheeks with her hand. “Sister Yuxi, you’re not getting any younger, huh? I think you’d better hurry up and find a boyfriend. Maybe next year, you can even invite me to your wedding!”
Leng Yuxi said with a mirthless smile, “Qingyuan, do you not know me well? By the way, I saw an old lady at the door who was behaving mysteriously and claiming to be Miss Yan’s grandmother..”
