The two of them pressed their hands on the Lucky Cat's head. After a brief exchange of force, Lin Xiao knew that she couldn't beat him, so she could only sigh and withdraw her hands.

Seeing that he was adamant, Huo Yelin could only open his mouth.

"Although your strength can't defeat me, your brain is not weaker than mine. When I was a kid, I was always the one in the front line, you always crossed your legs and acted as a strategist at the back. Do you think I would believe your bullshit? "

Lin Xiao stared at the empty space for a long time before he finally let go of the struggle in his eyes. "Ye Lin, you and Zhao Yilin must separate now."

"Give me a reason."

Lin Xiao suddenly slammed the table and said angrily, "Don't tell me you don't know how important the shares of the Zhao Family are to you. All the hardships you have endured all these years cannot be wasted on a woman! "

Huo Yelin looked into his eyes and said, "It was Grandpa who told you to do that."

"What's the use of arguing about it now!" Lin Xiao tugged at his hair, feeling extremely vexed, "You're not an idiot. You know better than anyone else how much it costs to be with her, so why do you insist on doing this? Was she beautiful? Is her figure good? You even know how to use demonic arts! "

Huo Yelin was silent, but Lin Xiao couldn't find any trace of regret in his eyes. He took a deep breath and said, "You have to get engaged to Zhao Yueran. That can't be changed. "Don't force Grandpa Huo to interfere with your plan anymore. The next time, it will definitely be Zhao Yilin who will suffer. I can't stop him!"

Huo Yelin held the pen and was writing something unknown. He casually said, "I will consider it." However, did you make such a ruckus tonight purely because Grandfather found you? "

Lin Xiao leaned on the table and replied in a muffled voice.

Huo Yelin folded the paper and walked up to him, placing it in his hand. "Take this."

Lin Xiao opened the paper and saw that the contract for the transfer of shares was written on it. Huo Yelin transferred 5% of his private shares to Lin Xiao.

"You, why did you give me this?"

Huo Yelin patted him on the shoulder, "Grandpa must have found you because he has something on the Lin Family. The tourism project that your family invested into last year didn't seem to be that good. Take my money to go around it."

Lin Xiao looked at the contract in his hands and his eyes turned red. He wanted to say a few words of thanks, but he heard Huo Yelin say, "Oh, the interest will be calculated according to the average interest rate of the bank. Pay it back within five years." As he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and coldly said, "If you dare touch her again, I will chop off your hand and feed it to the dogs."

Seeing him leave, Lin Xiao bitterly smiled and pocketed the contract, "Huo Yelin, you really are hopeless."

Zhao Yelin and Dou Dou were waiting at the staircase. When they saw Huo Yelin come down, they rushed up to him and asked in unison, "Are you alright?"

Zhao Yilin was still worried, so she added, "You didn't hit him, did you?" After all, we're good friends, so we have to talk properly. "

Huo Yelin stopped walking and looked at her, "Why are you always facing him with your mouth open."

"No!" Zhao Yilin muttered in anger, "After all, this has something to do with me. Isn't it normal for me to be concerned about something?"

Huo Yelin coldly said, "Don't worry, your Brother Lin is fine."

Zhao Yilin could not help but shut her mouth as she heard his tone.

The corner of Huo Yelin's mouth curled up as he pulled her hand and said, "Let's go. Accompany me to watch the steel pipe dance."

"Ah?" "Who would want to invite a girl to look at that kind of thing …"

When Zhao Yilin returned home, it was already late in the night, so she was a little drunk. She shakily took out her key to open the door, but halfway through, the door opened by itself, scaring her, "Ah! Huo Yelin, why are you here again! "

Fang Xinying stuck her head out and looked at her, "Oh, I seem to have accidentally found out a secret."

Zhao Yilin: "…"

"Listen to me," she said. "It's not what you think."

Fang Xinying went to the kitchen to cook a soup for her, "Mmm, I know, it will only be more serious than I thought."

Zhao Yilin tilted her head and pretended to be dead. Fang Xinying came over with some tea to poke at her, "Stop pretending. Drink the soup."

Zhao Yilin opened one of her eyes and took a sip of the soup. "Good soup!" she said with a big thumbs up.

Fang Xinying rolled her eyes at her, "You slept with him?"

Zhao Yilin nearly vomited a mouthful of soup. "Ugh …" "How is that possible?" When she finished speaking, she saw Fang Xinying's look of disbelief, and could only lower her head slowly.

They were silent for a long time, the owl clock on the living room wall ticking.

"Linlin, the day after tomorrow. It's the day of Qi Xiaoyan's death."

Zhao Yilin looked up at the calendar on the wall, and her heart turned cold. She couldn't believe that she had forgotten.

Tears began to flow from his eyes in an instant.

Fang Xinying held her hand tightly and said: "Don't be like this. It's been so long already, it's not that you purposely forgot about it, but you should have let it go long ago! Actually, I have always hoped that you could let it go. The two of us will work hard to find a good man to marry off. " Looking at Zhao Yelin's dazed expression, she said angrily, "But why are you looking for Huo Yelin? How could someone like him make you happy? "

Zhao Yelin silently shed tears. As she talked about Huo Yelin, she felt an even greater sense of sadness.

"Eli, I don't know what happened between you and him during this time, but you need to remember clearly that he has a fiancée! "No matter how much you like him, you'll just be a mistress in the future!"

The phrase 'mistress' was a nightmare for her and her mother. Even if she were to die, she could not walk on this path. It was also impossible for Huo Yelin to give up his engagement with Zhao Yueran for her sake.

Zhao Yilin put down the bowl and bit her lips to force the tears back. "Yingying, don't worry. I won't betray Xiao Yan and I won't fall in love with Huo Yelin!"

After saying that, she got up and returned to her bedroom. Closing the door, she suddenly heard a cellphone ring in her bag. She took it out and looked at the caller ID: Huo Yelin.

She jumped onto the bed and covered the phone with the covers, but no matter how hard she tried, she could still hear the sound.

"Sorry, sorry... Xiao Yan, I will not fall in love with him. Please believe me. "

The next day.

Huo Yelin drove to Huo Qiang's villa.

As he drove through the front gate of the villa and passed by the front garden, he saw Huo Qiang, wearing a straw hat, standing under a tree and pruning a La Plum.

This was the best time for La Mei to open. Huo Qiang liked to read and admire flowers, which in ancient times would have made him a respected Confucian businessman. However, in modern times, most merchants spent their time and time thinking about how to earn more money. Huo Yelin had been forcefully turned into such a merchant by the new era.

"Grandfather."

Huo Yelin took the scissors in his hand and helped him prune the tall branches.

After he finished building the tree, Huo Qiang didn't go back in a hurry. Instead, he pulled his grandson and took a seat in the viewing chair beside the tree.

Huo Qiang took off his straw hat and patted it a few times. "You wouldn't come to see me on your own accord. It must be for Zhao Yilin. "

The grandfather and grandson duo sat facing the Huo family's mansion. At the beginning of the last century, the Huo family's patriarch specially invited famous designers from Europe to build it.

Huo Yelin said, "Grandpa, I came here today to ask you how I can cancel my engagement with Zhao Yueran."

Huo Qiang looked displeased, "What, are you really infatuated with Zhao Yilin?"

Huo Yelin did not directly answer him, "Speaking of our relationship with the Zhao Family, we have to start from father's failed investment. From then on, the Zhao Family owned 30% of the Huo Group and the Huo Family only had 40%."

Huo Qiang snapped, "That's why I got you to marry Zhao Yueran and think of a way to get the shares back!"

Looking at his grandfather's pained expression, it was not hard for Huo Yelin to imagine what kind of dangerous situation the Huo family had experienced back then. However, Huo Qiang refused to tell him about it.

Huo Yelin looked at the Huo family's mansion firmly and said in a deep voice, "If I can get the shares back, please let me marry Zhao Yelin."

Huo Qiang turned around and glared at him. He suddenly hit Huo Yelin on the head with his hat. Two slashes were made on Huo Yelin's face.

"Bastard!" Huo Qiang was panting heavily as he hit Huo Yelin on his head. Huo Yelin did not dodge or say anything.

"I've already explained the pros and cons to you last time, and you even went to seduce her! The one who came to find me with the jade pendant was not Wu Yali! It was Bao Yanyun! Do you know where the Huo Family would put their face if this matter got out!? I don't even have the face to see Wu Yali! Do you think you're a lover? I don't know you! "You like her now, you can't protect her for more than a few days, and you also have other women in your heart. If you still want to listen to more, you should break off all relations with her as soon as possible, and stop interacting with her!"

Huo Qiang trembled as he stood up. Huo Yelin wanted to go up and support him, but he was thrown off. "There's no need for your support. Think about it when you get back!"

Huo Qiang walked back shakily. His back was old and stubborn.

Huo Yelin raised his head and saw that a plum tree had bloomed just in time. Some of the branches were still piled with snow, and he recalled the scene of Zhao Yelin holding his hand and reaching out of the window.

"Grandfather!" Huo Yelin suddenly shouted.

Huo Qiang stopped, but didn't look back.

"I really like her." Huo Yelin's voice was heard very far away, as if everyone on the other side of the world could hear him.

Huo Qiang paused for a moment before walking away.

Huo Yelin stood on the spot, feeling helpless or relieved. He took out his cell phone and saw that Zhao Yelin still hadn't called him back. For some reason, he wanted to see her. He first drove to Zhao Yilin's apartment, but she wasn't there. Then he went to Fang Xinying's place and found that both of them had disappeared.

Zhao and the crew took two days off to go to Qi Xiaoyan's hometown with Fang Xinying.

They flew to C just after noon and settled down in a nice hotel.

After that, Fang Xinying suggested that they go to the alma mater first. Zhao Yilin didn't want to be alone in the hotel, so they took a taxi to the entrance of B Academy.

It was the same as before. There were always a lot of people who wanted to make a movie and become famous overnight.

Zhao Yilin felt that she was not red and that no one would be able to recognize her, so she didn't try to cover it up. She didn't expect that the girls sitting by the door would recognize her and ask her all sorts of questions about how to film the movie and become famous.

Fang Xinying watched from the side with a look of envy on her face. However, Zhao Yilin was embarrassed. Even she herself did not know how to succeed.
