Madam Is A Sensational Figure In The City Chapter 482
Advertisement
Looking at the ring on her finger, Yan Jinyi blinked with some confusion.
She suddenly glanced at Huo Xishen and finally realized that there was a ring on his ring finger too.
His fingers were long, slender, and bony, so the ring looked particularly beautiful on him.
"Mr. Huo, is this your birthday gift for me?"
Huo Xishen glanced at her, as if to say "What else do you want?"
Yan Jinyi raised her hand and admired it under the moonlight for a long time. "Mr. Huo, shouldn't you be giving me a diamond of a larger carat?"
'Diamonds are getting more and more valuable these days. How little would this cost?'
"The diamond stone that Grandpa gave you is rather excellent."
"That is a gift from grandpa not from you, how can they hold the same significance?" As soon as Yan Jinyi said that, she suddenly felt that there was some ambiguity in Huo Xishen's words.
Yes, it was ambiguous.
Too ambiguous.
She coughed twice. "It's getting late, let's go back."
'Doggy Huo took the initiative to hold my hand just now, does it mean that his misogyny has gotten better?'
Yan Jinyi grinned gleefully. 'Actually, I do want to have a taste of Doggy Huo.'
Huo Xishen had no idea that he had already been targeted by the female lecher beside him. At this moment, his cell phone happened to ring.
It was a call from Qin He. Although Yan Jinyi didn't know what they talked about, she felt that there was a change in Huo Xishen's aura as it was now full of menace.
Since she was a bandit leader, she was very familiar with murderous aura. Seeing that he had hung up, she could not help but ask, "What's the matter?"

"Something cropped up. Can you go home by yourself?"
"What happened? Take me along."
Considering the fact that his injured underlings must be in tattered clothes now, Huo Xishen refuted, "It's just some matters between men. Darling, you should go home."
After saying that, he called a cab for Yan Jinyi before getting inside his own car to leave.
'What do you mean it's a private matter between men? Doggy Huo is so problematic!'
As soon as she arrived home, she saw Shen Yan and Huo Qingyuan standing at the door, their faces covered in anxiety.
"Shen Yan, what's wrong?"
Shen Yan held Yan Jinyi's hand and asked, "Jinyi, did Xishen go to the base of the family's escort team?"
"I think so."
Shen Yan suddenly sighed. "We can't even spend the Lunar New Year in peace."
Yan Jinyi frowned at look at Huo Qingyuan before questioning with a commanding tone, "What is going on?"
"Second Sister-in-law, the third squad is back and it's said that they had a brutal fight with the bodyguards of the Bai family."
"Why did they fight?"
"Based on what I heard, both families have set their sights on the same mineral ore. In the past, the Bai family have been on rather good terms with us and we were considered allies. I don't know what happened this time but they got into a serious fight."
Shen Yan suddenly sighed. "When it comes to business, allies are only temporary. All allies are bound to turn against each other when interests are involved. I rather admire Tang Qing, actually. At the very least, he's going against Xishen openly instead of resorting to underhanded tricks."
Yan Jinyi waved her hands expressionlessly. "I don't understand, neither am I interested. Let them be."

"Second Sister-in-law, it's our family's business at stake. What if we lose?"
Yan Jinyi said with raised brows, "There' nothing that can't be solved with a fight. If one fight doesn't work, we'll fight again. If not, we'll fight them to the death."
Shen Yan and Huo Qingyuan looked at each other, both thinking to themselves that Yan Jinyi was probably the only person in this world who was so tyrannical.
"Or..." Yan Jinyi suddenly developed an interest in the matter. "Why don't I go help them fight?"
"Jinyi I have a set of new clothing that I'd like you to try."
"Second Sister-in-law, I'm going to play a video game with a gaming expert tonight. He's a fan of yours!"
