[Chapter 233 She is the best choice for marriage]
After struggling for a moment, Lin Yin decided to test Huo Jingze's opinion of Jiang Yirou.
She tilted her head, looked at the man's well-defined profile and asked, "Can you tell me why you were with Jiang Yirou in the first place?"
Huo Jingze met her black and white eyes, a little surprised, "Why do you suddenly ask this?"
Lin Yin said: "I'm just a little curious. I think Jiang Yirou looks pretty good. Why did you break up?"
Huo Jingze was silent for a moment, slowed down the car, moved his thin lips and spoke slowly, "It is inevitable for a lawyer to offend people. Once I was retaliated against, and it was Jiang Yirou who took the knife for me. I owe her a favor, and she didn't want anything but for me to marry her."
"She is also your savior..." A complex look flashed across Lin Yin's eyes.
Huo Jingze hummed, "At that time, we planned to get married after Jiang Yirou graduated, but some accidents happened later and we broke up. Then I went to Lancheng."
"In your eyes, what kind of person is Jiang Yirou?" Lin Yin clenched his hands into fists hidden in his sleeves and couldn't help but clench them.
Huo Jingze looked at Lin Yin affectionately for a moment, thinking that she still minded the past with Jiang Yirou, so he freed his right hand to hold her small hand, interlocking their fingers.
"It's over between her and me. She's just a thing in my past. Don't think too much about it."
Lin Yin pursed her lips and asked tentatively, "What do you think of Jiang Yirou's character?"
"You seem to care about her a lot." Huo Jingze began to think whether he had done something wrong that made Lin Yin feel insecure.
Thinking back on his recent actions, it seemed that he had done nothing wrong, and he had always kept his distance from Jiang Yirou.
Is it because Jiang Yirou called him Brother Jingze?
Huo Jingze explained: "He calls me brother because our two families are old friends. Not only her, but Jiang Shu also called me that before she disappeared. If you mind, I will ask her to change her name."
Lin Yin: “…”
This is not what she cares about at all. She wants to know what kind of person Jiang Yirou is in Huo Jingze's heart. If she tells Huo Jingze that Jiang Yirou is one of the murderers who killed Jiang Shu, will he believe it?
To be honest, Lin Yin was not sure at all.
Firstly, there is no evidence, and secondly, her identity is special. If she reports Jiang Yirou without evidence, it will probably only make others think that she is narrow-minded and wants to frame Huo Jingze's ex.
Lin Yin inevitably felt deeply annoyed and frowned slightly.
She turned her head to look out the window, her voice unconsciously filled with a kind of suppressed muffled tone, "Nothing, just asking casually, you don't have to mind it."
The woman's pretty profile seemed tense, and her whole body revealed an unhappy emotion.
Huo Jingze was a little confused, wondering why Lin Yin suddenly became unhappy.
Everything was fine when we were having dinner at the hotel.
He didn't like the depressing atmosphere between the two of them, so he pulled the car over to the side of the road, leaned towards Lin Yin, and held her in his arms.
His slender fingers grasped Lin Yin's chin and turned her face to face him. "Why are you suddenly unhappy? Can you tell me?"
Lin Yin didn't know what to say and shook her head, "I'm not unhappy."
"You do." Huo Jingze stared at her face with deep eyes, "Every expression of yours tells me that you are unhappy and that you have something on your mind."
“…”
She did have something on her mind, but she couldn't let anyone know.
If Jiang Yirou and Huo Jingze had no relationship, she could tell him that they were exes.
Jiang Yirou once blocked a knife for Huo Jingze.
Lin Yin didn't know how to express her feelings at the moment. She felt so heavy-hearted that she couldn't put it into words.
In order to stop Huo Jingze from making wild guesses, she forced a smile and pretended to be relaxed, "I'm really fine. It might be my period. I'm in a bad mood for some reason."
Huo Jingze was stunned for a moment, "Why didn't you tell me that you had your period? Do you have a stomachache?"
Successfully changing the subject, Lin Yin nodded and agreed, "A little bit."
Huo Jingze opened the secret compartment in the car, took out the hot pack from it, tore it open and helped Lin Yin stick it on her belly.
"Put it on first, and I'll make you some brown sugar water when we get home."
Maybach restarts.
…
The Jiang family's family recognition banquet was held, confirming Zhou Qianxun's identity as a rich girl, and she had to interact with various wealthy families.
Although Lan Weiyu's health has recovered a lot, she still needs to rest well. The task of taking Zhou Qianxun out for social activities falls on Jiang Yirou.
The Huo family and the Jiang family are old friends and they often have exchanges with each other. The first place Jiang Yirou and Zhou Qianxun visited was the Huo family.
Zhou Qianxun was lively and simple in nature. Faced with Huo Qingyun's serious personality, she felt so embarrassed that she didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, Jiang Yirou suggested that the servant take her to the garden, and Zhou Qianxun immediately followed the servant away.
Only Jiang Yirou and Huo Qingyun were left in the living room.
Jiang Yirou came to visit the Huo family today. In addition to taking Zhou Qianxun to socialize and meet people, she also had her own selfish motives.
She took a sip of coffee and smiled, "Uncle Huo, I met Brother Jingze and Miss Lin at the Imperial Capital Hotel a few days ago. They looked so inseparable, so they must be in a good relationship. Are they about to get married?"
Huo Qingyun's expression did not show a trace of happiness, and his tone was filled with a hint of disdain, "It's just a relationship, it may not lead to marriage."
It sounds like you don't approve of Huo Jingze and Lin Yin getting married?
Jiang Yirou was secretly delighted, but pretended to be confused on the surface, "But Brother Jingze seems to like Miss Lin very much, how come they can't even get to the stage of discussing marriage?"
"Yiro, you should understand that in a family like ours, marriage must be between equals. If you were to marry Jingze, I would naturally not interfere." Huo Qingyun looked at Jiang Yirou with a deep gaze, and there was some hint in his words.
The Huo family is in politics and has power, while the Jiang family is in business and has money, making them the perfect choices for a marriage.
Although Jiang Yirou is not the real daughter of the Jiang family, and the incident that happened that year caused the Huo family to lose face, looking at the entire imperial capital, Jiang Yirou is the most suitable candidate.
Although Zhou Qianxun is a real rich girl, she has been living away from home for many years and has never even attended college. She doesn't have a proper job and her personal abilities are difficult to evaluate. It is estimated that she can only be a vase in the future and cannot participate in the management of Jiang's company.
Although Jiang Yirou is only an adopted daughter, the Jiang family never favors one over another and has trained her very well. Now she is the general manager of the Jiang Group and has real power. Only people like her can help Huo Jingze's future.
As for Lin Yin, although as Ni Lu's apprentice his future prospects might be immeasurable, he did not have a family background like the Jiang family, so he was still much inferior in comparison.
Jiang Yirou was good at observing people's words and expressions, so she naturally understood the hint in Huo Qingyun's words and had an idea in her mind.
She stood up with her bag, smiled and said, "It's getting late. I'm going to take Chihiro back first. I'll visit you next time."
Old Mrs. Huo, who was in the blind spot, heard the conversation between the two. After Jiang Yirou left, she came to Huo Qingyun with an unhappy look on her face.
"You still want to interfere in the matter between Jingze and Yinyatou."
