Madam Is A Sensational Figure In The City Chapter 284
Advertisement
"Mrs. Huo, can you play mahjong? Your sister-in-law, Shen Yan, is really good at it so I think you shouldn't be too bad at it, right?"
Mrs. Li asked with great enthusiasm.
Yan Jinyi frowned slightly. 'Is there a hidden meaning in her words?'
She had played some mahjong games on her cell phone before but she found it really boring.
"No."
"Mrs. Huo, you actually don't know how to play mahjong? That's such a pity," remarked Mrs. Li who seemed rather surprised.
"Mrs. Li, do you know how to play gun battle games?" Yan Jinyi suddenly asked.
Mrs. Li froze in shock and shook her head. "Hehe, no, I'm usually busy with handling some household matters, and I also have to manage the charity association of Li Corporation, so I'm not as free as you. I don't have time for games."
Yan Jinyi pretended not to hear the contempt in Mrs. Li's words and said nonchalantly, "Oh, that's such a pity."
The people in the upper class society did not pay much attention to the entertainment industry, so no one here really recognized who Yan Jinyi was.
They only knew that Yan Jinyi was rather different from most women who were married to wealthy men. She was rather uncouth, but she didn't go overboard with it, and thus, others thought that that was the remaining etiquette she had.
After the meal, the people who were seated at the table moved to the leisure area. It was obvious that Huo Xishen was the leader as they were all following him around.
Huo Xishen was discussing business with some directors and business owners. Usually, such junctures were the time for the wives of wealthy men to shine.
The wives of wealthy men were not to be underestimated. If they managed to form close connections with the wives of other prestigious businessmen, they might bring great benefits to their husbands' business.

Hence, Yan Jinyi became their target.
However, none of them were sincere.
"Second Young Mistress Huo, come sit over here. Since we don't understand what those men are discussing, shall we chat among ourselves?"
Mrs. Li pointed to the spot in the middle of the sofa and said with a smile.
Yan Jinyi glanced at it but did not sit down and instead sat alone on a single armchair.
Seeing this, Mrs. Li was satisfied and then sat down.
'This woman still has some self-awareness.'
Mrs. Li sat in the so-called "center seat", but for some reason, after everyone was seated, Yan Jinyi, who was sitting alone on the single couch, looked just like their boss.
"Second Young Mistress Huo, do you have any hobbies?"
After considering it very seriously, she said, "I'm rather interested in skeletons."
Mrs. Li's expression changed and she secretly clenched her fists.
'If it wasn't for the fact that you are Mr. Huo's wife, I wouldn't have bothered to butter you up.'
'Hmph, ignorant wretch who doesn't know any better.'
Thinking about it, Mrs. Li suddenly looked at the wealthy lady beside her and said, "Oh, there's a Chinese zither here. I remember that Mrs. Liu plays the Chinese zither very well, and she even managed to win over her husband with her skills."
Mrs. Liu was about the same age as Mrs. Li. After hearing her words, Mrs. Liu said coyly, "I'm not that good, I've only learned it for a few years when I was in elementary school."
Mrs. Li almost mentioned all the attributes of each lady who was present.
All of a sudden, Yan Jinyi seemed exceptionally untalented.
Although she was pretty, she was uncultured and did not have any fortes.
"Second Young Mistress Huo, a life of luxury can be boring at times. In your free time, you can learn painting or floral arrangement."
Yan Jinyi looked up and said, "I like studying the structure of human bodies and discussing the internal organs with my brother-in-law. I think that's a good hobby."
'Why are the things she say always so unexpected?'
