Chapter 687 Marriage
Huo Junshan: "..."
Huo Junshan was stunned. He obviously didn't expect Huo Dongcheng to agree so readily. He frowned, and said with a hint of caution, "Don't go back on your word."
"Of course, the baby in Xue Jun's belly is my...brother or sister." Huo Dongcheng stood up with a smile, "Dad, if you don't have anything else, I'll go back first."
Huo Dongcheng turned and walked out of the study. The smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by a cold look.
He walked down the stairs quickly, and his footsteps echoed in the empty corridor, sounding particularly clear.
Lin Jiamin was no longer in the living room.
As I walked out of the door, the night wind blew in my face, bringing a bit of coolness.
Huo Dongcheng got in the car and dialed a number. His voice was cold and low: "Go check where Xue Jun is now."
There was a response from the other end of the phone.
Seeing that he looked unhappy, the driver asked cautiously, "Mr. Huo, shall we go back to Nuanju now?"
"Um."
…
In a bedroom of the Huo family's old house.
Lin Yinuan put her hands in her hair and looked up at Lin Jiamin irritably and helplessly, "Aunt, are you really going to bring that bitch in?"
Lin Jiamin nodded calmly, having accepted the matter, "Yes."
"But……"
Lin Yinuan felt unwilling!
Xue Jun, that bitch, the shameless mistress, was actually able to enter the Huo family's gate so openly. My aunt, Mrs. Huo, had to take care of her and let her give birth to her husband's child. This is ridiculous!
"No need for buts, Yi Nuan. There's no room for regrets on this matter." Lin Jiamin's eyes darkened as she sighed, "It's my fault. I wasn't careful enough and gave Xue Jun the chance to escape."
Lin Yinuan thought for a long time, not knowing what to do, and stomped her feet in anger.
"Yi Nuan, when she comes, don't mess with her, okay?"
Lin Yinan responded irritably.
She thought of something, and her eyes suddenly lit up, "Aunt, are you planning to get through this difficult situation first, and then take action later..."
"No," Lin Jiamin interrupted her, "I haven't thought about attacking her again."
Lin Yiran shouted, "So are you really going to watch her give birth to the child?"
"If she gives birth to this child, she will at most inherit part of the property, but if your uncle and I divorce, I will get nothing." Lin Jiamin narrowed her eyes.
Donglin is too young. If she leaves the Huo family now, he will easily be educated and guided by the Huo family and dislike her.
If Donglin was as old as Huo Dongcheng... No, it doesn't have to be as big as Huo Dongcheng. Even if Donglin had just started college, she wouldn't have suffered this grievance today.
Although she has her own assets now, they are nothing compared to the Huo family.
All her connections were made in the name of Mrs. Huo. Once she is no longer Mrs. Huo, those people will not associate with her and may even withdraw their investment from her projects.
Lin Yiran opened her mouth and said, "My uncle may not divorce you..."
Lin Jiamin chuckled with a hint of sarcasm, "Yi Nuan, can't you see clearly what kind of person your uncle is?"
The reason why she was able to hold the position of Mrs. Huo was that she knew Huo Junshan's bottom line. As long as it did not touch his bottom line, she would try her best to go along with him, and occasional disagreements were no big deal.
But once his bottom line is touched, he will abandon her without hesitation.
Lin Yinuan was forced to accept this, but she felt very upset.
Returning to the room, she couldn't wait to send a message to Hanhan: "Hanhan! I'm so angry!!"
Hanhan might be busy and didn't reply, but that didn't stop Lin Yinuan from talking to Hanhan about it.
She summarized the feud between Xue Jun and the Huo family in a few simple sentences, and described Xue Jun as a shameless and scheming person in her narration.
"I'm not willing to let that bitch into my house. Can you give me some advice?"
Seeing that Hanhan hadn't replied, Lin Yinuan went to the bathroom.
When she came out after blow-drying her hair, she saw Hanhan's reply.
Hanhan said, "I thought about it, your aunt is so wronged because your foundation is too shallow and your cousin is too young to have much authority."
Lin Yinuan: "You're right, but how can we change the current situation?"
Hanhan: "I don't know if you've read history from the Han to the Tang Dynasty. The official selection system back then was based on the recommendation system, the conscription system, and the Nine-Rank System. It was difficult for commoners to rise to prominence, so the aristocratic families had a huge influence in the court, with deep-rooted connections. Even the fall of dynasties was influenced by the aristocratic families, such as the Li family in the Tang Dynasty, the Longxi aristocratic families in the Sui Dynasty, and the Guanlong military aristocracy."
Lin Yinuan: "..."
Hanhan: "The reason these aristocratic families are so powerful is not just the accumulation of their ancestors, but also due to intermarriage. Families are inseparable, the population is prosperous, and due to intermarriage, many people in the court are related by marriage."
Lin Yinuan: "So, you mean a marriage? But Donglin is too young, and my uncle may not let my aunt interfere in his marriage!"
Hanhan: "Idiot!!! I'm talking about you!"
Lin Yinuan: "Me?"
Hanhan: “Yes.”
Lin Yinuan: "But you know my situation, who can I marry?"
Hanhan: "Isn't there a ready-made one, Wu Haoran?"
Lin Yinuan: "!"
yes!
Isn’t there Wu Haoran?
Under Hanhan's guidance, it was easy for her to control Wu Haoran, and now Wu Haoran obeyed her every word.
Lin Yinuan was a little worried again: "But Wu Haoran's parents don't like me."
Hanhan: "So what? Isn't it enough that Wu Haoran likes you?"
Hanhan: "When you become a member of the Wu family, you and your aunt will help each other. I believe your uncle will not divorce your aunt because of such a small matter."
Hanhan: "Let's take a step back and say, even if they really do get divorced, the Wu family and the Huo family are old friends. You can visit your cousin often and support him so that he will remember the good things about you and your aunt, and he won't become estranged from your aunt when he grows up."
Lin Yinuan: "!!!! That makes so much sense!! Hanhan, you're so smart!! Thank you, Hanhan! If it weren't for you, I really don't know what I would do!"
Hanhan: "You're welcome, we are friends, it's my duty to help you!"
Lin Yinuan bit her lower lip and said, "...I forgot to tell you that my period is five days late this month."
Originally, she only wanted to get pregnant to avoid imprisonment, but after thinking about it carefully, she realized that marrying Wu Haoran was the best solution given her current situation.
Hanhan: "That's great. Wu Haoran already likes you, and now that you're pregnant, he'll definitely be even more determined to marry you."
Lin Yinuan looked at Hanhan's reply and felt excited, as if she had found the key to solving the problem.
She took a deep breath and quickly replied to Hanhan: "I'm going to find Wu Haoran and tell him about this. As long as he stands on my side, the Wu family will have to accept me no matter how reluctant they are!"
