Huo Yan entered from outside, his handsome face bearing the same arrogance as Huo Xize's, and his words were even more arrogant and haughty, truly worthy of being Haicheng's infamous troublemaker!
Ye Boyun's face was filled with disbelief, "You..."
Too shocked to speak, Ye Boyun felt a surge of anger rising in his chest, his eyes burning with fury.
He doesn't understand!
Huo Xize used the entire Huo family as a bargaining chip, risking a sudden attack from the Ji family, to kick the Ye family when they were in crisis, because Huo Xize is Xu Qingyun's biological father.
Huo Xize feels guilty towards Xu Qingyun and wants to make up for his lack of responsibility as a father over the years, which is understandable. But what about Huo Yan?!
He and Xu Qingyun are just half-siblings, so why would he give up all his wealth to help Xu Qingyun?
You have to understand, that's the Huo family's inheritance rights! No one is willing to give up their enormous power and wealth to become the bride of an illegitimate daughter born to a father and his mistress!
Doesn't Huo Yan hate Xu Qingyun? Doesn't he hate Ye Jianjia? She was the mistress who ruined his parents' relationship!
Huo Yan was wearing a long down jacket, but the zipper was undone, and his hands were in his pants pockets, exuding a bandit-like aura.
Huo Yan glanced at Ye Boyun from head to toe, his smile widening: "Aren't you leaving yet? I'm afraid if I say another word, you'll faint from anger. You're practically buried up to your neck, so take it easy and take care of yourself."
“You…” Ye Boyun pointed at Huo Yan, his face flushed with anger, and he could even feel the hot blood rushing up his veins. His temples throbbed and his heart pounded.
Upon seeing this, Huo Yan exclaimed "Oh dear!" with a bloodthirsty smile: "Quick, quick, your blood pressure is high! What if you suddenly pass out? I'm not afraid of killing people, but I'm afraid of getting my hands dirty with blood."
Ye Boyun's teeth chattered, and he quickly asked the butler to help him leave.
Back in the car, Ye Boyun pounded on the car door.
"The Huo family father and son are simply going too far! Is this how the Huo family is raised?! They don't even understand the most basic respect for elders. They are arrogant, lawless, and outrageous!"
"Hmph, does the Huo family think they can bully the Ye family just because they're in crisis? They underestimate me, Ye Boyun. I can cooperate with Ren Anjing!"
The butler hesitated for a moment, "Master, the Ji family... belongs to Ninth Master."
"Hmph, Ren Anjing dislikes that girl Xu Qingyun and will absolutely not allow her to enter the family. Why did Ren Anjing come to Nancheng? And why did she leave in anger? The Ji family is now in Ren Anjing's hands, how could it belong to Ji Hanchen?!"
Ye Boyun knew how strong-willed and domineering Ren Anjing was; she would never allow her son to disobey her!
**
Inside the suite, Huo Yan's face was grim. "That old bastard Ye Boyun! He really is a scoundrel who lives a thousand years! How could such a piece of trash still live to this age! I was so blind to have ever thought he was my maternal grandfather!"
When Huo Yan learned that he was Ye Jianjia's biological son, he actually fantasized about taking care of his maternal grandfather in place of his mother.
But after learning what this old man had done, I thought about killing him more than once!
Now they're even bullying his sister; they really have a death wish.
Huo Xize took a puff of his cigar. "Where did you go?"
"I went to see my sister." Huo Yan pouted. "I originally took a picture of a pretty hairpin for my sister, but Ji Hanchen wouldn't let me deliver it."
Huo Xize frowned. "Huo Yan, tone it down. You're constantly going to Xiao Yun's place. Doesn't the Huo family get suspicious?!"
Huo Yan grinned, his smile absolutely explosive. "Can't I pursue her as my girlfriend? Dad, what do you think would happen if I publicly asked Xiaoyun to marry me right now?"
Huo Xize sneered, "It'll cause chaos. Your reputation is already bad enough, don't cause any more trouble for the Huo family. Also, news has come from the mansion that Miao Miao has come to Nancheng."
Upon hearing Huo Miaomiao's name, Huo Yan frowned. "What's she doing here? Is she here to cause trouble for my sister?"

Sheng Huating.
It was still snowing heavily outside, the whole world was covered in white, and there was a chill in the air.
Xu Qingyun stood by the French windows, looking at the world outside, her cool face expressionless.
Ji Hanchen was dealing with his work, which seemed to be quite tricky.
She was also deeply troubled, thinking about her mother.
My mother's ashes were taken away by someone, but the person who did it didn't even contact her, which doesn't make sense.
Although Ye Xiao hates her mother, it's impossible that she would only dig up graves to vent her hatred. Moreover, if it really were Ye Xiao, Ye Boyun wouldn't have used Ye An's ashes to threaten her.
Therefore, this person must not be Ye Xiao.
Could it be Xu Jia?
No, not exactly.
There has been no news from Shen Luo, which clearly means they can't find any clues. Xu Jia doesn't have the brains to evade all surveillance, nor does she have such a powerful backer.
Who exactly is it?!
Ye An's death was suspicious. Who killed him to silence him? What did Ye An possess that was worth silencing?
Is it possible that the person who gave her that drug for two years wasn't Ye An, but someone else, and that Ye An was just a pawn?
The results of her paternity test with Huo Xize were also strange. Bai Ruiting was Ji Hanchen's good friend and it was impossible for her to fake it, so why were she and Huo Xize not father and daughter?
If Hoczez is not her biological father, then who is her father?
And if Huo Xize isn't her father and Huo Yan isn't her brother, why would they be so enthusiastic?
Could there be another purpose?
No, she definitely isn't.
Xu Qingyun trusted her intuition; there was no malice in Huo Yan and his son's enthusiasm.
Xu Qingyun had a headache; she really couldn't figure it out.
Just then, a cell phone ring interrupted Xu Qingyun's thoughts. She collected herself, turned around, picked up her phone from the coffee table, and glanced at it. It was Qin Shuang calling.
"Hey beautiful, what are you doing? Out for drinks tonight?"
Xu Qingyun was in a state of confusion at the moment, so she agreed, "Okay."
"Okay, come to Yiye City at six o'clock tonight. It's Shen Gou's territory, so you can spend whatever you want without paying."
Xu Qingyun couldn't help but laugh. How could Sister Qin Shuang be someone who cares about money?
**
At six o'clock in the evening, Xu Qingyun went to Yiyecheng.
Ji Hanchen was worried about her being alone, so he personally brought her over and only felt at ease after watching her enter the private room.
"Call me if anything happens," Ji Hanchen instructed.
Xu Qingyun nodded, "I understand."
Qin Shuang joked, "Ninth Master is such a devoted and filial husband, when are you planning to marry our Xiaoyun?"
Ji Hanchen raised his thin lips: "Soon."
Upon hearing the words "soon," Xu Qingyun looked at Ji Hanchen with some surprise, only to meet his dark, inky eyes.
He answered naturally, but how could their marriage be so simple? Was he really going to completely sever ties with Ren Anjing and abandon the entire Ji family for her?
