Lu Yan watched as Lin Yin turned around and left with Huo Ge. She had already made up her mind. If Lin Yin really went to pour wine for everyone, she would do the same. If anyone dared to not drink well and come looking for trouble, she would beat them up one by one. After that, she would get her uncle to save her.
Lin Yin looked at Mu Ning, who was walking not far in front of them, with an indifferent smile on her face.
Huo Ge lowered his head slightly and chuckled in Lin Yin’s ear. “You’re quite scheming. You clearly know that you’ll win, but you still want to bet.”
“Didn’t they also think that they would win, that’s why they bet with me too? It’s just an eye for an eye! I’m a very fair person. I’ll scheme as much as others scheme against me!” With that, Lin Yin looked at Huo Ge with an unfathomable smile.
Huo Ge shook his head and said, “Tsk, tsk, tsk. You’re quite vengeful. Why are you so petty?”
“I thought I had already made things clear to you when you planned to scheme against me. Why? Didn’t you hear me clearly back then?” Lin Yin retracted her gaze and looked straight ahead as she sneered.
“You’re a little unreasonable, aren’t you? Although our deal wasn’t written in black and white, I only agreed to spare her life back then. You can’t blame me,” Huo Ge said innocently.
Lin Yin smiled and snorted. “Alright! I don’t blame you! But your people kidnapped my… family and even kidnapped my friend before. They even wanted to capture me to Country D. Who do you think I should blame for this?”
Huo Ge straightened up and sighed. “Looks like there’s no solution between us. Since the hatred has been established, we can only see who will win!”
Huo Ge admitted that he was a little interested in Lin Yin, but he would not bring danger with him.
Lin Yin was too wild and difficult to control. Once he brought Lin Yin back to
Country D, with Lin Yin’s personality, she would probably not be easy to manage. Lin Yin was not someone who would obey.
In that case, when he regained his dignity and had enough fun, Lin Yin would die.
Huo Ge sighed. Why was such a beautiful girl so stubborn and calculative?
It was such a waste!
It was simply such a waste!
Such a good-looking person should be obedient and give in. Only then would she be loved.
On the other side, Huo Bing brought Mu Ning through the rockery and stream in the courtyard to Old Madam Huo’s living room.
“Grandma, I’ve invited the eldest daughter of the Mu Family over for you.” Huo Bing smiled at Old Madam Huo, who was lowering her head to make tea.
Old Madam Huo looked up slightly and saw Huo Bing bringing an unfamiliar young lady into the room.
She frowned slightly. “Who did you say she was?”
Huo Bing did not notice that something was wrong with Old Madam Huo’s expression. He only said respectfully, “Miss Mu, Mu Ning!”
Mu Ning was a little nervous under Old Madam Huo’s scrutinizing gaze. She quickly went forward and introduced herself respectfully. “Grandma Huo, my name is Mu Ning. I’m ranked fifth in the Mu family. You can call me the fifth child or Ah Ning.”
“The fifth daughter of the Huo Family?” Old Madam Huo sized up Mu Ning with her sharp eyes and smiled. “I didn’t know that there was a fifth daughter in the
Mu Family.”
Mu Ning smiled appropriately. “I’ve always been raised by my grandparents and haven’t come out much all these years. This is the first time I’ve come out to attend a banquet. When I heard that Grandma Huo wanted to see me, I boldly came to visit you.”
Old Madam Huo picked up her teacup and sniffed it gently. Then, she sipped her tea elegantly.
When the tea in the cup was empty, Old Madam Huo gently put down the cup and said solemnly, “When did I say that I wanted to see the Mu family’s… Fifth Daughter?”
Huo Bing did not hear the difference and said with a puzzled expression,
“Grandma, didn’t you tell Huo Ge to bring the eldest daughter of the Huo Family to see you? Huo Ge was mesmerized by a girl called Lin Yin. I didn’t want to disappoint you, Grandma, so I brought the daughter of the Mu Family to see you myself.”
Old Madam Huo snorted. Her expressionless face looked especially serious, making the two people present a little helpless.
“I remember that I’m talking about the eldest daughter of the Mu Family and not some unknown fifth daughter, right? Huo Bing, you know that I don’t like to see strange people,” Old Madam Huo said bluntly.
Huo Gels heart skipped a beat. He looked at Mu Ning in disbelief and then at his
Grandma..
