Chen Yulian's face was incredibly gloomy and she was glaring at Yan Jinyi with indignation.

She originally wanted to take this opportunity to cheat Yan Jinyi out of a sum of money but she didn't expect Yan Jinyi to completely turn her back on them. Even after hearing that her grandmother was hospitalized, she refused to fork out a single cent.

Seeing that everyone was pointing at her and making remarks incessantly while the medical workers tried to dissuade her but to no avail,Chen Yulian felt really embarrassed.

'Who does this brat think she is? If Yaxi wasn't underage at that time, she would have been the one marrying Huo Xishen, not Yan Jinyi!'

The door of the ward was opened at this moment and a middle-aged man walked in.

He was clad in an ill-fitting suit that obviously wasn't suitable for his thin stature, and staring at them sternly.

Chen Yulian quickly went forward. "You're finally here! Look at your dear niece, she refuses to pay a single cent for Mother's medical expenses even though she's already so severely ill."

Liu Yong assented with a frown and stared at Yan Jinyi sternly, as if he was looking at a defiant junior. "Why aren't you paying for your grandmother's medical expenses?"

Yan Jinyi retorted, "Why aren't you paying for your mother's medical expenses?"

"You... I'm your uncle! Is that how you should be talking to me?"

Yan Jinyi rolled her eyes and thought, 'Just my luck to be involved with this family.'

"You unfilial granddaughter, I should really take you in hand on behalf of your late parents."

As he spoke, Liu Yong raised his palm and was about to slap Yan Jinyi on her face. "Such an insensible girl. You're a huge disgrace to our family, I must teach you a lesson today!"

Seeing that the slap was about to land on her face, Yan Jinyi turned slightly to the side just in time to dodge it. At the same time, she pushed Liu Yong too.

Liu Yong staggered backwards by several steps and glared at Yan Jinyi in disbelief. "How dare you hit your elders? How did your parents teach you?"

Yan Jinyi retorted sneeringly, "My parents died a long time ago. As my mother's younger brother, shouldn't you be aware of that? I'm not a Liu, and what happens to your family has nothing to do with me."

"You..."

"What? Do you really think I'm still the pushover that you can boss around? Didn't your newly wedded wife tell you to leave me alone? Do you believe me? I'll make sure the Huo Family destroys you."

After saying that, she dragged Huo Qingyuan to the elevator and left. "By the way, if you dare to pocket the money that I'm giving you for that old lady's medical expenses, I'll see you in court. Don't take it that I'm joking, Miss Huo here has heard and witnessed everything."

Liu Yong stared in awe at the young girl who walked into the elevator behind Yan Jinyi.

'That's Miss Huo?'

'Didn't Yulian say that this ingrate isn't close to the members of the Huo Family?'

He suddenly glared at Chen Yulian with a dangerous gaze, causing her to feel a little scared.

Both Yan Jinyi and Huo Qingyuan were not around and Shen Yan suddenly felt like she was an outsider instead of a member of the Huo Family.

'He's never been kind or spoken to me nicely in the past three years that we've been married. He must hate me, huh?' Shen Yan wondered to herself as she sat on the couch and stared at her cell phone screen. She had received a text from Yan Jinyi.

"Young Master Chengyu is back," Zhang Guoquan said loudly. Shen Yan subconsciously looked over to see Huo Chengyu striding through the door.

He was wearing a white lab coat, looking rather dignified and refined. However, Shen Yan knew how cold and aloof he was beneath his gentlemanly facade.

Shen Yan got up and took the computer bag from his hand. "Chengyu, has the feud with the Bai family been settled?"

Huo Chengyu said without even looking at her, "It's none of your business."
