Chapter 5: Turning defeat into victory
Lin Yilan had a good sleep and got up early the next day.
I had a boxing match, took a shower, and had dinner before leaving.
Lin Yilan decided to go to the Huo's Building first to pick up her luggage, and by the way, ask her if she could go up now.
If she could get in, she would first smash Chen Shimei's head with a hammer and then break off the engagement with him.
After arranging today's affairs, Lin Yilan went out.
Because she didn't have much money on her, she had to run to the Huo Building again, which delayed her for some time.
When she arrived, many employees had already started coming in and out.
Lin Yilan was familiar to many people because of her heroic deeds yesterday, but they didn't dare to step forward and greet her because she had offended the big boss of the Huo family, Huo Juncheng!
However, there are exceptions.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, you are here again!" Zheng Ronglan ran over happily.
Lin Yilan looked at Zheng Ronglan with disdain: "I'm not even married yet, how come I'm your sister-in-law?"
Zheng Ronglan reached out and helped her carry her things in a gentlemanly manner. He turned his head and smiled, "Aren't you Juncheng's fiancée? Isn't it only a matter of time before I call you sister-in-law?"
After hearing this, Lin Yilan loosened her grip and said with a sinister grin, "Who said he and I are engaged? I want to cancel the engagement."
Zheng Ronglan didn't notice Lin Yilan letting go of his hand. He only felt his hand sink and was almost dragged down by the snakeskin bag.
He looked at the snakeskin bag he was holding in shock. He tried his best but couldn't lift it.
It was obvious that Lin Yilan carried it very easily. How strong was she?
Zheng Ronglan calmly let go of his hand and took a step back. He suddenly felt that his good buddy Huo Juncheng would be beaten into a pig's head, just like Lin Pinyan...
He smiled awkwardly and said, "We can talk it over. Why are you cancelling the engagement? Sister-in-law, there must be some misunderstanding. Why don't you come in with me and sit down. When Juncheng arrives, we can talk it out."
So she agreed, "Okay!"
When you see someone, beat him up first and then talk about breaking off the engagement.
After making this decision, Lin Yilan carried the snakeskin bag and followed Zheng Ronglan into the Huo Building.
There were only two of them in the elevator, and it actually said it was overloaded.
Zheng Ronglan glanced at what Lin Yilan was carrying. The bag was equivalent to the weight of more than eighteen people.
Immediately, he began to pray for Huo Juncheng.
After some trouble, the two arrived at Huo Juncheng's office.
Not long after we sat down, Grandma Huo arrived.
After all, they rushed here without stopping after receiving the notification, so they must be much faster.
As soon as she entered the door, she enthusiastically pulled Lin Yilan and said, "Granddaughter-in-law, grandma misses you so much."
Lin Yilan remained unmoved: "Grandma Huo, I'm here to cancel the engagement!"
Grandma Huo didn't care at all: "If you want to cancel the engagement, then cancel it. What does it have to do with me? I came to talk to you about opera."
"Opera?" Lin Yilan's eyes lit up: "Grandma, do you like it too?"
Grandma Huo cleared her throat, hummed a few words, raised her eyebrows and looked at Lin Yilan: "How is it?"
Lin Yilan seemed to have found a kindred spirit: "Grandma, you sing so well."
Grandma Huo waved her hand and said, "Haha, it's just so-so. You sang well, too. When I heard you sing the Chen Shimei segment yesterday, I decided that I'd marry you as my granddaughter-in-law."
Lin Yilan was also a little embarrassed. She liked opera because the only way to entertain herself in the mountains was to listen to it. Unexpectedly, as she listened, she really fell in love with it.
What I didn’t expect was that I would find a like-minded person as soon as I came down the mountain.
Lin Yilan sighed and said, "I'm afraid it will be difficult for my grandson's wife. I can't tolerate even a grain of sand in my eyes. I'm afraid that if I force him, I will accidentally kill him after we get married."
Such horrifying words were spoken in the calmest tone, and Zheng Ronglan trembled all over. He suddenly felt that he shouldn't have bothered to bring her up.
If Lin Yilan starts to fight later, will he stop the fight or not?
Just as he was thinking that he wanted to live a few more years, footsteps were heard outside the door.
Immediately afterwards, the office door was pushed open, and a tall figure strode in with a whistling cold wind.
"Notify the managers of each department that if you can't finish the task today, pack up and get out! Let others go to this meeting, and you have to do everything yourself. What are you doing?" Huo Juncheng was giving instructions for today's to-do list to the assistant following behind him, and suddenly felt that there seemed to be too many people in his office.
He turned his head slightly and his expression changed suddenly.
Lin Yilan!
Why is she here?
Suddenly, his icy face became even colder and harder.
Lin Yilan was also stunned when she saw Huo Juncheng, but she quickly reacted.
She jumped up: "Are you Chen Shimei?"
Huo Juncheng asked his assistant to go out first, and then looked at Lin Yilan. His expression did not change, but he was unsure in his heart. Why didn't he reveal his identity yesterday?
It's just that I saw her beating someone.
It seemed that they would have to meet sooner or later. He relaxed a little, but still kept a cold face and said, "Huo Juncheng."
"Hmph! You actually deceived my feelings! If I had known you were Huo Juncheng, I shouldn't have saved you yesterday." Lin Yilan regretted it.
Huo Juncheng continued to act like a refrigerator. He said coldly, "I haven't settled accounts with you yet. How am I going to settle accounts with you for ruining my reputation?"
Fortunately, the live broadcast was quickly cut off yesterday after she subdued the gangster, otherwise, he would have been embarrassed to the whole world.
"Hmph, you dare to have a mistress, what reputation do you want?" Lin Yilan gritted her teeth.
"What do you mean by looking for a mistress? Do you know who the mistress you beat up yesterday was?" Huo Juncheng stared at her and asked.
Lin Yilan stood up, trying to appear more impressive: "What does it matter who it is?"
"She is your stepsister. As for what she said, it was all her self-righteousness that represented you!" Huo Juncheng stated the results of his investigation.
Lin Yilan's mouth twitched. The person she beat up yesterday was actually her stepsister Lin Pinyan?
I really regret not hitting him a few more times.
But in this case, it seems that she really misunderstood him?
Lin Yilan was timid. She looked around and said, "Ahem, is that so? I was impulsive."
"Heh, can you undo the damage to my reputation by saying that I was impulsive?" Huo Juncheng successfully turned the tables.
Lin Yilan coughed and said, "I'm sorry, at most...at most, I can keep you warm for a month."
"Puff! Puff!" The two people who were drinking tea and eating melons were shocked by the explosive remarks.
Even Huo Juncheng was choked by her, but thinking of her warm little hand, he coughed and said, "Huh, one month is enough?"
Lin Yilan wanted to cry but had no tears: "How many months do you want?"
"It depends on your performance."
Grandma Huo looked at herself who had turned defeat into victory and defeated Lin Yilan's grandson, and silently gave a thumbs up.
He is worthy of being her grandson, and has the same demeanor as she did back then.
But praise is praise, this matter cannot be excessive. After all, her granddaughter-in-law has spent eighteen years practicing martial arts for her grandson. The Huo family has no way to repay such kindness except to treat her like a jewel in the palm of their hand.
