“Big brother, you, you’ve gone too far!” Xing Siqing’s voice was choked with emotion, her eyes reddening as the hint of a sob emerged from her words.

Huo Qinyu also looked unhappy, “Ashen, Siqing just graduated and has no working experience in this field, she’s only twenty-two…”

“When I was twenty-two, Yunda had already listed on the London Stock Exchange.” Huo Jingshen spoke with his usual indifference, but every word struck deep.

Xing Yuyun couldn’t help but frown.

Twenty-two…

He was still studying for his master’s degree abroad at that age.

A sudden ring from the cellphone interrupted, Huo Jingshen rose, his eyes stern and cold, “Huo Yuan isn’t a charity or stray animal shelter. If you want to get in, you must start from the bottom. If you can’t bear this tiny test, you can stay at home and live comfortably like Zhexi.”

With that, he went to the balcony to answer the phone.

Su Wanwan was left flabbergasted.

Her husband, was indeed… so acerbic!

He didn’t hold back at all!

Suddenly, it seemed he was quite polite to her, heh.

As for Huo Zhexi, who was drinking at a club, he unexpectedly sneezed more than a dozen times in a row.

Which son of a bitch was talking behind his back?

As the balcony door closed, Xing Siqing burst into tears and dashed out the door.

Huo Qinyu quickly rose, “Dad, Mom, we’ll head back first.”

“Go.” Old Madame Huo didn’t stop them.

As for Old Master Huo, he continued sipping his tea leisurely.

Huo Qinyu chased after her all the way outside, “Siqing, Siqing, stop!”

Xing Siqing halted, her eyes already red and swollen from crying.

“How can you be so rude? How have I taught you, just running out like that in front of the elders?”

Xing Siqing felt even more wronged, “Mom, it was clearly big brother… He was so over the line, why did he publicly humiliate me like that?”

Huo Qinyu didn’t expect Huo Jingshen to be so ruthless.

No matter what, Siqing was his cousin.

“It’s all Su Wanwan’s fault, she must have been bad-mouthing me!” Xing Siqing gritted her teeth, “I have no idea what my big brother is thinking, bringing such a woman home, and not even bothered about the disgrace she brings!

He’s just like uncle, he likes all the pretty ones, doesn’t care where they’re from…”

“Don’t you dare say things like that again!” Huo Qinyu cut her off sharply.

“Did I say something wrong?” Xing Siqing retorted, “Su Wanwan is only an illegitimate daughter, the child of Uncle Su’s mistress, previously just a low-class girl! Does grandma senile, does she not care she was engaged with my brother?”

“Ashen is already legally married to her.” Huo Qinyu sighed, “You must show respect to your grandfather, you can’t disrespect her in any way, you will have to call her sister-in-law…”

“Me call her sister-in-law? No way!”

“Siqing…”

“I’m definitely not calling her my sister-in-law!” Xing Siqing wiped away her tears fiercely.

Did she think she’d become a phoenix just because she climbed up a big tree?

Xing Siqing knew too much about Su Wanwan, could a woman who mixed with all types of men in the bars at the tender age of sixteen have anything good about her?

It’s hard to change one’s fundamental nature, she may fool them now, but for a lifetime?

One day her true colors will show and she will grasp it!

“Mom, I don’t want to work at the sales department, help me plead with grandpa,” Xing Siqing added.

She was, after all, a granddaughter of the Huo family, her major was in architectural design. If she was seen working at the sales department by her friends and classmates…

She couldn’t bear the shame!

Huo Qinyu’s eyebrows knitted together.

Ever since the old man was diagnosed with his condition and decided to semi-retire in their old mansion, transferring the company’s responsibilities to Huo Jingshen, especially the real estate section, Huo Jingshen has been fully in charge, having the final say, as the old man’s attitude clearly proved earlier.

“I’ll try my best.” Huo Qinyu could only say she would try.

On the balcony, as soon as he answered his phone, Chu Xiuhuang demanded, “Why the hell aren’t you checking the group chat?”

“What group?”

“What do you mean what group?” Chu Xiuhuang hurried, “Quick, I found a bunch of good stuff for you. Don’t fucking say I don’t have your back.”

Huo Jingshen wasn’t accustomed to checking group chats, he only started using WeChat after he returned to China, because it was too noisy, he muted all the group chats.

He hung up, took out a cigarette and fired it up, then opened the chat group named “WJY”.

There was over a hundred new messages.

At the very top was a picture from Nangong Ci: Su Wanwan sitting on the chair, the gauze on her leg drew the eye.

Then after.

Chu Xiuhuang: “Isn’t that girl too weak?”

Nangong Ci: “It’s obviously because big brother is too wild!”

Lu Chenyu:

Ming Jing: “Third brother, how do you know everything?”

Nangong Ci: “I asked, the gynecologist said that sister-in-law can’t even walk, advised big bother to control himself and be more gentle.”

Chu Xiuhuang: “Puhahaha.”

Ming Jing: “Tsk, tsk, tsk.”

Lu Chenyu:”…”

Chu Xiuhuang: “It’s mating season for the animals! The thousand-year-old Wrought Iron Tree has finally bloomed! It’s necessary to take out my years of collection for him.”

Nangong Ci: “Western ones are fine too, Mingzi remember to bring back some good discs for big brother as gifts.”

Ming Jing: “Cough, cough, I don’t involve myself with those kinds of things.”

Lu Chenyu:”…”

Chu Xiuhuang: “Lu, try sending me dots again!”

Lu Chenyu:

Suddenly, the message at the top of the WeChat group showed, “Huo Jingshen has left the group chat..”
