Bai Yaoyao's face was covered in tears. "What did I do wrong? We're not even divorced yet! Why?!"
Standing nearby was the wife of the Second Branch, Huo Jinge's biological mother, wearing a look of amusement. "I told you, Yaoyao, don't be too angry. The tabloids always like to write nonsense. I really don't think it's possible. If you can't find Huo Liangchen, you can ask your sister. She shouldn't do something so shameless!"
The words "shameless" reminded Bai Yaoyao.
She immediately lifted her foot to go out and personally ask Bai Ru for clarification!
This matter couldn't be discussed over the phone; it had to be addressed face-to-face.
She ran into Huo Jincheng, who was returning.
Bai Yaoyao acted as if she saw nothing.
At that moment, she truly saw nothing; her eyes and heart were filled with the humiliation caused by Huo Liangchen.
A force gripped her arm.
Bai Yaoyao was stopped, her expression filled with surprise.
Hadn't Huo Jincheng been treating her like air for a long time?
Bai Yaoyao didn't think that Huo Jincheng stopping her now was for her own good.
"My business is none of your concern! Don't stop me!"
Bai Yaoyao couldn't help but struggle.
"Are you embarrassed to go out? It's just a small tabloid report, nothing serious, and you're jumping around in a panic?" Without saying another word, Huo Jincheng directly dragged Bai Yaoyao back and threw her onto the sofa in the living room.
The servants were busy cleaning up the messy living room.
"Go pour a glass of water for the First Wife and let her calm down," Huo Jincheng instructed.
Bai Yaoyao glared at him, biting her lip tightly.
As the water was poured, the servant dared not approach the furious Young Master's grandmother, standing nervously to the side.
"Why are you standing so far away? Do you think I'm dead?" Bai Yaoyao glared at the servant.
Everything in this house was uncomfortable now.
Anyone could bully her!
The servant bullied her!
Huo Liangchen bullied her!
Even a poor girl like Jian Yunong, who had just married in, could bully her!
"Enough! Don't vent your anger on innocent people!" Huo Jincheng couldn't help but scold Bai Yaoyao.
What good does crying and throwing a tantrum do?
It does no good at all!
She seemed to have no understanding of her current situation.
"Do you want the elders to come back and see you like this?" Huo Jincheng said coldly. "Big Brother is a scoundrel, and you are the victim. Do you want to make everyone hate you?"
"But..." Bai Yaoyao felt as if her heart was being cut, her eyes filled with hatred, "Am I not allowed to vent my sadness? I've lost everything. My face is gone. My life is ruined!"
"Is it that difficult?" Huo Jincheng looked at her indifferently, "If I had known this would happen, why did you bother in the first place?"
Bai Yaoyao's expression cracked.
Finally, she couldn't hold back any longer and collapsed onto the sofa, crying.
If only she had known...
But she truly couldn't accept it!
While Bai Yaoyao cried endlessly, members of the Huo Family began to return one after another.
Today was the day to have dinner at the old house.
After all, it hadn't been long since Grandpa's funeral, and Grandma had just returned from a trip to Hawaii. Everyone was there to spend time with the elderly and bring some joy.
What could be more delightful for the elderly than family happiness?
Huo Jincheng stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, watching luxury cars drive in one after another.
It was an unprecedented bustle.
Huo Jincheng hoped his older brother wouldn't choose today to expose everything.
When Jian Yunong arrived at the Huo Residence, most of the family members were already gathered.
Sister-in-law Bai Yaoyao looked normal aside from her slightly red eyes.
"Grandma, you look younger after going out for a bit."
Huo Jinge had specially come back today, snuggling up next to the elder and acting cute.
Grandma smiled widely, "Did you run out of pocket money again?"
"How could that be? I'm just speaking the truth," Huo Jinge insisted on his honesty.
Jian Yunong was called over.
"This is a gift for you."
Receiving the box handed over by Grandma, Jian Yunong was a bit surprised. "Thank you, Grandma."
"I've noticed you've lost a bit of weight recently. Let Huo Jincheng cook you some good food. His cooking skills are great!"
With just a few words, Jian Yunong became the center of everyone's attention.
"Huo Jincheng can cook?" Everyone was curious about this.
"Wow, is it edible?" Jing Ge exclaimed, unable to believe that Huo Jincheng could cook.
Jian Yunong felt a bit shy but couldn't help feeling proud in his tone, "His cooking is really delicious."
At that moment, Huo Jincheng arrived at the dining room, and Huo Jinge immediately ran to his side. "Third Brother, I heard your cooking is amazing! When will you make me a meal?"
Huo Jincheng sat down next to Jian Yunong. "Depends on my mood."
"You don't give me any consideration at all!" Huo Jinge pouted.
Grandma joked, "What use is it to ask your Third Brother? You should go find your Sister San!"
Huo Jinge didn't react at first, "Why?"
"Because I only cook for your sister-in-law," Huo Jincheng said while secretly holding Jian Yunong's hand, gently rubbing and stroking her palm, sending a warm sensation throughout her body.
Jian Yunong shot a playful glare at Huo Jincheng.
This sweet scene fell into Bai Yaoyao's eyes like dust, impossible to rub away, painful but not deadly, yet extremely uncomfortable.
Bai Yaoyao really wanted to claw Jian Yunong out of her sight and throw her away.
Grandma scanned the people present and asked, "Where's Huo Liangchen?"
There was a three-second silence in the room.
"He has something to do; let's eat first," Bai Yaoyao spoke up.
"Old Daughter-in-law, give Huo Liangchen a call. The old man is gone; our family needs to gather more. These days together are fewer and fewer."
But Huo Liangchen wouldn't answer his wife's calls at all!
Bai Yaoyao lowered her head and left the table, pretending to call Huo Liangchen.
Three minutes later, Bai Yaoyao returned. "Huo Liangchen said he had to go on a business trip out of town at the last minute and will apologize to you next time he comes back."
"Then let's start the meal," Grandma said, no longer insisting. After all, Changsun was always career-oriented and had always been so independent.
Bai Yaoyao breathed a sigh of relief.
At that moment, the sound of high heels echoed at the door.
Tap, tap, tap, coming closer from afar.
Just now, Huo Liangchen, who was said to be on a business trip, had returned.
Not only did he come back, but he also brought Bai Ru with him.
Bai Ru linked arms with Huo Liangchen, indifferent and calm, facing the various gazes of the Huo Family.
Bai Ru did not smile; since she couldn't please the people of the Huo Family, it was better to make herself happy.
"Boss, what are you doing!" Mother of Huo Jincheng was furious upon seeing Bai Ru, how dare she actually bring her home.
"Grandma, I want to marry Bai Ru. She is carrying my child."
This statement shocked everyone awake.
Even though Jian Yunong was not surprised, he was still stunned by Huo Liangchen's rebellion and boldness.
Bai Yaoyao was still here; he couldn't see her as his wife.
This meal was likely going to be uncomfortable.
Jian Yunong cast a worried glance at Grandma Huo, fearing that she might react like Grandpa and cause a scene.
