Huo's mother was very angry about this. She did not blame Huo Jincheng. Instead, she attributed all the reasons to Jian Yunong.
Jian Yunong was called to the study, where Huo's mother asked her to reflect on her shortcomings as a Daughter-in-law.
Jian Yunong was not in good spirits because she had been having nightmares all night.
After listening to Huo Jincheng's mother go on and on, she still did not understand where she had gone wrong in this matter.
"Mother-in-law," Jian Yunong said, pretending not to understand, "please just tell me directly what I did wrong."
Huo's mother was critical. "So where do you think you did well in this situation? Do you know what your responsibilities are? Do you really think you came here just to be the young mistress? Your responsibility is to have children! Huo Jincheng is being reckless; don't you know to advise him? Don't you know how to fulfill your duties?"
Jian Yunong was confused. "Mother-in-law, Huo Jincheng is your child. If your words don't work, mine will be even less effective."
Huo Jincheng's mother, a strong woman, was respected by the elders at home, while the younger generation looked to her for approval. Outside, her subordinates in the group also watched her expression.
Only Jian Yunong dared to challenge her!
When one dislikes another person, they cannot help but magnify their flaws.
"Good, very good," Huo's mother said with a sarcastic smile, "it seems that it is indeed all our fault. You have no problems at all."
Jian Yunong's lips moved as if she wanted to say something but ultimately gave up.
"Mother-in-law, if there's nothing else, I will go back and rest so as not to waste your time."
Jian Yunong truly had nothing more to say to Huo Jincheng's mother.
Huo's mother turned her eyes away, concealing the coldness etched in her gaze.
Seeing that Huo's mother remained silent, Jian Yunong took it as her agreement.
After all, there was no point in saying more when they were not on the same wavelength.
Huo Jincheng was not at home; he had urgent matters to attend to and went to a neighboring city for a collaboration meeting.
Jian Yunong returned to bed to catch up on sleep, dozing off until evening before finally waking up.
The butler came to knock on the door. "Third Young Master requests your presence. The car is waiting at the door."
Huo Jincheng suddenly returned?
Jian Yunong changed her clothes and got into the car. Two men in black sat in the front seat, both unfamiliar to her.
"Where are we going?"
"You'll know when we arrive."
The response was devoid of any emotion.
Jian Yunong took out her phone, preparing to send a text message to Huo Jincheng, but then thought better of it; she would see him soon anyway, so she decided against it.
"We've arrived."
The car finally stopped, and it was already dark outside.
Jian Yunong got off the car, feeling inexplicably uneasy.
It was so desolate here, with the cold wind howling.
Huo Jincheng would meet here?
Just as Jian Yunong hesitated, two people suddenly flanked Jian Yunong from either side.
"What are you doing?"
"This is an order from Chairman Huo."
So... this has nothing to do with Huo Jincheng?
The door opened, and two people in white coats walked out from inside.
...
Neighboring City.
Huo Jincheng had just come out of the hotel when his phone rang.
Huo Jincheng thought it was Jian Yunong calling and quickly answered, "Nong Nong, how did you sleep today?"
He had called home earlier, and the people at the old house said Jian Yunong was sleeping.
A voice came from the other end of the phone, sounding quite pleasant, "I slept very well."
This voice is really annoying.
“Xu Yizhi, are you sick?”
“Huo Jincheng, come quickly. I’m waiting for you at Nightshade Bar.”
Huo Jincheng replied, “Get lost.”
Xu Yizhi laughed on the phone, “Are you really going back? I know you won’t finish your work that quickly. Just come over, let’s drink, nothing else.”
When Huo Jincheng arrived, he found a private room filled with women, with only Xu Yizhi being the man.
Huo Jincheng was impressed; the nightclub prince was quite something, and the number of women was increasing.
“Tonight we won’t leave until we’re drunk!” Xu Yizhi signaled to a nearby princess to accompany Huo Jincheng.
The princesses in the night were all beautiful, and seeing a handsome guy like Huo Jincheng naturally made their hearts flutter.
He was good-looking and clearly wealthy.
Huo Jincheng merely raised his eyes slightly, and those eager women immediately settled down.
“What’s the matter? It’s just drinking, just playing around. Do you really have to be such a buzzkill?”
Xu Yizhi was unhappy.
“Let’s just drink. I don’t like strange women touching me.”
Especially, there is a little jealous one at home.
Huo Jincheng knows that Jian Yunong dislikes any traces of other women on him.
The silly wife never says anything, but he knows she cares a lot about it.
Well, Xu Yizhi waved his hand and drove all the women out.
Only the two of them remained in the private room.
"Are you heading back tomorrow? To attend your brother's wedding?"
Xu Yizhi tightened his grip on the cup.
Bai Ru and Huo Liangchen's wedding is tomorrow.
Xu Yizhi also received an invitation from Bai Ru.
An invitation felt like a red bomb.
Xu Yizhi felt bitter; he didn't want to go, but he also didn't want to make it too obvious, so he simply found an excuse to come out and play.
Being away from Nancheng, out of sight, out of mind.
Huo Jincheng casually said, "It's not for the wedding that I'm heading back."
He was worried about Jian Yunong being home alone.
"Oh?" Xu Yizhi raised an eyebrow, realizing, "So it's for your little Daughter-in-law!"
Huo Jincheng and Jian Yunong's married life was enviably good.
Why was Huo Jincheng always so lucky?
He used to be the person closest to Bai Ru, and now that he's married, it seemed like he was doing even better, even though he didn't marry Bai Ru.
Xu Yizhi felt a pang of jealousy and deliberately brought up Chu Ai, "Did that actress make your little Daughter-in-law angry? It's just a man having some fun outside; she shouldn't be so calculative."
"I have nothing to do with that woman," Huo Jincheng said angrily. "She's crazy. I haven't even touched her, and she comes here trying to make trouble. Luckily, I said I was using protection. My mom finally woke up. She's probably furious, being fooled by a little star, and she's particularly harsh on that woman."
So that's how it is...
Xu Yizhi actually believed Huo Jincheng.
Huo Jincheng wasn't that casual.
"How could your mother agree to Bai Ru marrying into your family?" This had puzzled Xu Yizhi for a long time.
Huo Jincheng looked at him in surprise, "You didn't know? He's not my biological brother. He's my father's child with someone else."
Xu Yizhi was shocked, "I didn't know. You never mentioned it."
"You never asked."
"Why would I ask about such things..."
Xu Yizhi understood it after a moment of thought.
Since it wasn't his own child, of course, he wouldn't impose strict requirements.
Around eleven o'clock at night, Huo Jincheng returned to his room.
After washing up, he immediately called Jian Yunong.
"The number you have dialed is turned off."
Is she asleep?
Huo Jincheng felt a bit unhappy.
That little thing is ungrateful; she doesn't even think to give him a call.
However, they had only been apart for a day.
Huo Jincheng felt as if he had turned into a lovesick teenager, wanting to see the person he liked at all times; he needed to see her every day, and even one day apart felt unbearable.
