Chapter 43

On Friday night, Xu Yinyin was playing a fighting game with Xu Yao. At the critical moment, Huo Yan called.

In order not to affect her gaming, Xu Yinyin turned on the Do Not Disturb mode, and only the continuously glowing screen indicated the incoming call.

After it flashed four or five times in a row, Xu Yao was the first to notice it. He glanced at it and reminded, "It's my brother-in-law calling."

"What brother-in-law?" Xu Yinyin didn't react for a moment.

"Brother Yan, your family's marriage partner!" Xu Yao explained considerately.

"Wait until I finish this game. I will kill you."

As soon as Xu Yinyin finished her harsh words, the NPC on the screen was knocked out by Xu Yao's ultimate move.

Xu Yao turned around and looked at Xu Yinyin, who seemed to have lost all hope in life, and said with a sly smile, "Don't keep your brother-in-law waiting for too long."

What answered him was a swift kick from Xu Yinyin, which made Xu Yao grimace in dismay.

The call came at this critical moment.

Xu Yinyin pressed the answer button angrily: "What?!"

Huo Yan frowned. Is this the resentment of people who work overtime?

"Why are you so angry? Who pissed you off?"

"It has nothing to do with you. If you have something to say, please speak up."

"My sister lost the game to me, brother-in-law, please help comfort me!" Xu Yao screamed on the opposite side.

Huo Yan was stunned at first, then he chuckled, "Fight back if you lose. Is it useful to get angry?"

"It's none of your business. Do you have anything to do? If not, hang up now."

"Wait, I have something to do." Huo Yan said anxiously.

"say!"

"I'll pick you up tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, and you'll be with me all Saturday and the weekend."

"Hey, don't go too far. You've taken up two days and I don't even have any time to rest." Xu Yinyin's resentment soared visibly.

"I'll give you a raise, 5 million a day, okay?"

Xu Yinyin narrowed her eyes slightly. It is not the behavior of a capitalist to actively increase the money. I am afraid that she wants more work!

"More money, but no more work."

"I know. I won't assign you more work. I'll take you abroad to ski and meet friends."

"Is that so?" Xu Yinyin was a little bit unbelievable.

"Well, that's it, nothing else."

[Oh my god, you have to go abroad to ski? Isn’t there enough for you to do in China? You are so hypocritical! But I like it, hehe! ]

[Oh, I was just saying this is a domineering post. Your weekend skiing plan was disrupted, and he immediately made up for it. If you don’t know, you would think he can read your mind.]

[Haha, it's just a playboy's usual way of picking up girls. What a considerate person. If he really wanted to be considerate, he would let me take the money without doing any work.]

Huo Yan: “…”

"Should I prepare anything?"

"No, I'll prepare it. It's fine for you to go empty-handed."

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the place where you got off that night at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning. Is there anything else?"

“No more.”

"Beep, beep, beep---"

Huo Yan was stunned for a moment after hearing the busy tone, and was once again amused by her ruthlessness and disloyalty, what a little white-eyed vixen!

*

Early the next morning, Xu Yinyin heard laughter downstairs before she went downstairs. After asking her aunt, she found out that the person was Huo Yan.

She packed her things in a hurry and went downstairs, where the bastard was having a great conversation with his rich parents.

When he saw her, he said shamelessly, "I'm sorry, I didn't listen to you and wait outside. I thought since I was here, I should meet my uncle and aunt first to avoid being rude."

Xu Yinyin smiled at his teasing tone and immediately started to act out, "It's my fault for not thinking it through. I originally wanted to confirm the relationship before bringing you home to meet my parents. Now that you're here, I'll just treat it as a meeting."

This way, whenever the master invites Huo Yan to a banquet in the future, he will have to come even if he doesn't want to, so he can just save some hiring fees!

When the couple heard this, they immediately smiled happily.

Jiang Xin hurriedly took Xu Yinyin's hand and sat beside her. "It's great that you two like each other. I was afraid that you two would force yourself to do something for the sake of your elders."

"It's not a stretch, Auntie. Yinyin is so outstanding. It's my blessing to know her."

[Oh, he is really good at acting. He really thinks he is my future son-in-law. I won’t pay you. ]

Jiang Xin's smile froze, her hands trembled, and she heard Huo Yan say, "Yinyin and I have just started to get to know each other. I will spend more time with you in the future so that we can get to know each other better. Don't worry, auntie. I won't let Yinyin down."

Jiang Xin smiled bitterly. Oh my God, if you two really made a deal, you would be working harder than the other. Oh, my God!

Jiang Xin glared at Xu Yanwen with resentment, and the latter said hurriedly: "More contact is a good thing. Only by understanding each other can we get along better. Of course, we are very open-minded. If you feel that it is not suitable for each other, you must not make it difficult, and there is no need to force yourself to consider both parents. If you like it, you like it. If you don’t like it, let it go in time. We will never force it. Marriage is not a joke. You must treat it with caution. Do you understand, Yinyin?"

"Yes, I know. My daughter will definitely remember what Dad said."

[Dad, this reassures me. I know they won’t force me. I’m so happy!]

[Even I want to be your parents' child. Parents like this are awesome! ]

"Thank you for your advice, uncle. I'll take note of it."

"Then we'll set off. Goodbye, Mom and Dad."

Xu Yinyin grabbed Huo Yan's sleeve and took him away.

After watching the two of them leave, Jiang Xin hesitated and said, "Ayan should be able to hear Yinyin's thoughts, but he doesn't look like he's acting. I'm a little confused."

"If you don't understand, then don't understand. I've just made it clear. Whether they are sincere or just cooperating, our goal is to not let Yinyin suffer any grievances. Ah Yan has good character and is an excellent person. Yinyin is so smart, she will handle it well. We just need to trust her."

"Compared to Yinyin's marriage, the most important thing right now is to completely destroy Zhou Xinyi's scheme as soon as possible and make them confess their crimes. Otherwise, the crisis in our family will always exist. It's good that Yinyin has been with Huo Yan recently. With someone to protect her, we can do our work more freely."

"Yes, yes, yes. Only when Zhou Xinyi's roots are completely eradicated can our family rest easy."

*

As soon as Xu Yinyin walked out of the house, she suddenly shook off Huo Yan's sleeve and angrily complained: "Who asked you to come home? Don't you need it now?"

"I didn't want to either, but my uncle just came back from his morning run. It would be bad if I ran into me without saying hello." Huo Yan lied without blushing.

Xu Yinyin squinted at him, "Is this really a coincidence?"

[Xiao Qi, did he lie? ]

Huo Yan's heart skipped a beat. Oh no, he forgot she had help.

The system determined: [No, it was indeed an accidental encounter! ]

Just kidding, there is no reason not to support a couple that is right in front of you.

Huo Yan was secretly delighted. He didn't expect that this little thing was so useful.

Why doesn’t he have one? Tsk!

Xu Yinyin warned with a stern face: "I won't give you money anyway. It's not what I asked for."

Huo Yan smiled and said, "I won't take your money, even if you ask me to. I'm very generous."

Xu Yinyin snorted and walked straight towards his car.

Huo Yan's smile gradually widened at the corners of his lips, and his heart, which had been calm until now, began to ripple as if someone had thrown a stone into it.

On the way to the airport, Huo Yan took the initiative to introduce his friends.

"There are three friends flying with us later. The one with curly hair and dimples when he smiles is Wang Xun. The other one who looks like a playboy is He Yang. The other one has a bookish and elegant demeanor, and his name is Ji Kai."

"Shouldn't you introduce your friends to me in person? If you tell me in advance, I won't remember them. If I make a mistake, won't people think I'm being disrespectful to them?"

"I'll introduce them to you again when we meet later. You don't have to remember them deliberately."

Of course he knew he had to introduce himself in person, but he wanted to get to know Ji Kai in advance :)

"That's better." Xu Yinyin muttered unhappily.

[Xiao Qi, did he just mention Ji Kai's name? Is he the big bastard we met at the racecourse before? ]

[Yes, the circle of wealthy families is so small. ]

[By the way, has he found the twin sisters disguised as men? ]

Huo Yan's eyes widened slightly. He knew there was something fishy when Ji Kai said about the woman disguising herself as a man. Sure enough!

[Found him, but the elder sister didn't want to see him, because the younger sister got there first and cried to her sister, telling her how much she loved Ji Kai and couldn't live without him. She cried so hard that it was so pitiful that the elder sister cried away the little ripples in her heart, and even began to blame herself for having other thoughts about Ji Kai.]

[What did I say? The younger sister is really a scheming bastard. It was vicious enough that she instigated her elder sister to dress up as a man to seduce Ji Kai. Now that she finds out that her elder sister is attracted to Ji Kai, she starts to make trouble again. Her main goal is to destroy her if she can't get her, right?]

[Alas, what can I do? Who made these two fools unable to defeat her? The younger sister is really good. The elder sister has always felt guilty towards her. Now without Ji Kai, the younger sister has a harder time in the entertainment industry, while the elder sister has been singing all the way, taking all the big awards and honors she can get. She is definitely a winner in life. ]

[The younger sister was so jealous that she almost went crazy. She even complained to her older sister, asking why she didn’t stop her from entering the entertainment industry. If she also danced, her achievements would not be worse than her older sister.]

[Oh my god, how can she be so shameless? My sister has been very good to her, and even put aside her principles to deceive Ji Kai for her. My sister is too greedy. How could Ji Kai provoke such a person? A white lotus like Song Qing should fight against a green tea Huo.]

Huo Yan gritted his teeth silently. Who is the partner who gave you the money?

[Wait, why don't we let Huo Yan take care of Song Qing, and give Ji Kai and my sister's true love a place. ]

Huo Yan: “…”

You are considerate of Ji Kai!

He couldn't help but glance at her.

Xu Yinyin was so absorbed in eating melons that she didn’t see it, but the system did.

Tsk tsk, look at that sad little look, maybe he’s jealous of Umbro’s anger over Jikai?

[Hey, don't say that, this proposal is quite good. Huo Yan's worth will kill Ji Kai in a second. As soon as he comes on the stage, Song Qing will come over.]

The system sees the excitement and adds fuel to the fire.

Huo Yan: I take back what I said about Xiaodong.

[You think it's okay? Then I'll find a chance to find out and remind him that it's not my nature to stand by and watch someone die without helping.]

Huo Yan sneered out loud, and when he noticed Xu Yinyin looking at him in confusion, he was surprised at how he could not keep his temper. What on earth was he angry about? !

"What are you doing?"

"My throat hurts." Huo Yan pretended to clear his throat.

"If you give me your cold, it'll be considered a work injury."

"······I'm fine, I don't have a cold!"

Huo Yan was so angry, she might have turned into a money-grubber!

The car arrived at the airport quickly, and the exclusive VVIP flight attendant greeted us attentively and took us directly to the private jet waiting room. Various high-end desserts and teas were delivered to the table one by one.

Xu Yinyin was extremely shocked, but she tried to remain calm on her face. It was not until all the flight attendants had left that she began to express her excitement.

[I didn't expect Huo Gou also has a private jet. It turns out that rich people can really fly as they please. Tsk tsk tsk, the evil capitalists! ]

[The balance in your card is already enough to buy a plane. Why don't we buy one and apply for a flight to wherever you want to go?]

[No, I don't want it. I spent enough money to buy it. As for the maintenance, airplanes are expensive to use. I can't bear to part with them.]

[Also, the ladies who dated me have all scheduled their trips for two years in the future. I don’t need to worry about where they go. I just follow them. But then again, what do they like about me? They are all so enthusiastic about me. I can’t stop. I can’t stop! ]

[Who cares about her? It's always a good thing if someone likes you.]

【Uh-huh.】

Xu Yinyin looked towards the gate and muttered: [Why hasn't Yuan Zhongkai come yet? ]

Huo Yan felt inexplicably unhappy when he saw the person he hired with his own money paying special attention to another man.

He even regretted calling Ji Kai, feeling that he would lose himself if he watched the show today.

There were footsteps at the door, mixed with occasional laughter.

【Are you here? 】

【Here it comes. 】

Xu Yinyin sat up straight, straightened her clothes, and smoothed her smooth shoulder-length hair with her small hands.

Someone is unhappy again. Why is he so casual when he meets him?

He Yang pushed the door open and walked in. When he looked up, he saw Xu Yinyin's beautiful smile and someone else's dark and handsome face.

He Yang, who often lingered among the flowers, immediately saw what was going on. Someone was trapped!

"Hi, sister-in-law, I'm He Yang."

"Hello, Xu Yinyin." The two shook hands and greeted each other.

Following closely behind was Wang Xun, and then Ji Kai, who looked a little uncomfortable.

"I've heard Brother Yan mention you a long time ago. I'm really amazed to see you today. Hello, sister-in-law." Wang Xun smiled and shook hands with her.

"Hello, hello."

Xu Yinyin looked at Ji Kai and pretended to be surprised: "Hey, have we met somewhere before?"

[It is indeed a resentful Kaiye. 】

He Yang and Wang Xun were both stunned. Their sister-in-law clearly didn't say anything, but the voice--

The two of them subconsciously looked at the other two, and seeing that they seemed to accept it well, they were not too surprised.

But what the hell is Yuan Zhong Kai? Is he referring to Ji Kai?

As soon as doubts arose, the two of them looked at Ji Kai.

Ji Kai was feeling miserable, but this day finally came QAQ!

He forced a smile and said, "We met once at Yan Yiyi's racecourse last time."

"Oh~ yeah, yeah, I remember now, why didn't you bring your girlfriend? I wanted to get an autograph from a famous star."

The corner of Ji Kai's mouth twitched slightly. Although he was very grateful to Xu Yinyin for helping to expose Song Qing's trick, this did not offset the depression of his shameful past being made public by her.

"We broke up because of incompatibility."

"That's a shame. I'm sorry."

[You should have broken up long ago. Song Qing has such an easy time controlling you. Not only does she control you, she also morally kidnaps your true lover. She cries to me every day about how much she loves you and drinks to drown her sorrows. The more she does this, the further I will stay away from you. Tsk, how miserable!]

Ji Kai's legs went weak and he almost fell to his knees.

Song Qing actually went to Xiaoxuan to cry and complain. How could she be so shameless!

Ji Kai quickly calmed himself down and casually confessed, "It's not a regret. I was the one who fell in love with her twin sister first."

Rather than guessing a riddle, he would rather be a scumbag and not allow Yinyin to reveal more details that he doesn't know when she is angry and attack him, so that he can pursue her more easily.

“Huh?!!!” The two people who were unaware of the situation cried out in surprise.

Man, this is an awesome trend!

Nobleman VS sisters, you have to know how to play!

"It's normal for men to be a little fickle. I can understand that." Xu Yinyin accepted it well.

After all, he was a complainer. What could she ask of him?

The two unaware people were immediately impressed by Xu Yinyin's magnanimity.

He quietly gave Huo Yan a thumbs up, as if to say, Brother Yan has a keen eye, awesome!

Huo Yan: “…”

[Oh, you are such a grudge, why are you still making excuses for her now? She just doesn't want you to be with her sister. She is so jealous of you two being together that she is going crazy. She has quit her job and has been crying to her sister all day long, just to make her leave China as soon as possible so that she will never see you again in this life.]

Ji Kai staggered. If Xiaoxuan was determined to break up with him, he might never see her again. What should he do?

"It's my fault for not handling this matter properly. If I had confronted her earlier, she wouldn't have been hurt."

[Oh my god, you are a masochist. You may have done it on purpose but it was not your fault. She almost broke your leg. You don't need to feel guilty for her.]

The crowd eating onlookers were stunned. What a masochist, what a straight bend, ahhh, please give us more details, sister-in-law, we love to hear it!

"Love is a very personal thing. If you like someone, you like them. If you don't like someone, you don't like them. Why force it? I believe that once Song Qing finds a better helper, she will be able to let it go soon. She looks very carefree."

[I have reminded him so much, he should understand my hidden message, hurry up and find a scapegoat for Song Qing to divert her attention, then you will have a chance to win back your sister! ]

Ji Kai's dim eyes suddenly brightened. This was a good idea, but who should he find?

Xu Yinyin silently observed his reaction and saw his eyes move for a moment, then he became confused again. Her problem of worrying about others came back again.

"If you really want to make up for it, you should seize Miss Song's needs and compensate her, such as introducing other friends to her and helping her continue to smoothly pursue a career in the entertainment industry."

After Xu Yinyin finished speaking, she glanced at the other three people meaningfully, and her eyes stayed on Huo Yan for a few seconds before moving away.

[Your three friends can all take over, but judging from Song Qing's ambition, Huo Yan is obviously more suitable. I have already pointed this out, you still don't understand, right? ]

Ji Kai understood it, he saw it clearly.

She wanted him to introduce Song Qing to Huo Yan.

But sister-in-law, isn't that your crush? You are too generous!

Ji Kai glanced at Huo Yan with some sympathy, and the other two tried hard to hold back their laughter. The eldest sister-in-law was indeed very broad-minded.

Huo Yan: “…”

She actually did this for Ji Kai, whom she only met once. Good, very good!

Ji Kai forced a smile and said, "This is indeed a good idea. Let me think about it."

[Tsk, what are you still hesitating about? Good brothers are there to fill in the gaps. Besides, you are just trying to divert Song Qing's attention. With Huo Yan's ruthless behavior, he will definitely not be affected at all. Huo Yan's neglect will only arouse Song Qing's desire to conquer. The two of them will start to tug at each other, and you will have a loophole to exploit. It's really frustrating!]

Ji Kai's eyes lit up again. This sounded very reasonable.

The crowd also thought this was a good idea. After all, among the people present, only Huo Yan was an insulator, and he would not suffer any loss in such a beauty trap.

Huo Yan suddenly received three eager gazes: "..."

You really think he is a freeloader, what a wish!

Xu Yinyin read Ji Kai's embarrassment, took the initiative to walk to Huo Yan and sat down, saying with a smile: "A Yan, didn't you say yesterday that you wanted to invest in a movie? It just so happens that A Kai has someone to guide you."

"Akai?" Huo Yan smiled at her familiarity, "Isn't this only the second time you've met?"

Xu Yinyin choked, but remained calm and said, "But I think he and I are quite compatible. It's not like we're only meeting for the second time."

"Really?" Huo Yan said with a fake smile, "I don't have any money."

Xu Yinyin: “…”

[Hiss, what is he crazy about? The capitalists are just sitting there with their money and not making any money. This is amazing!]

[Umbro, is it possible that he is jealous? Are you too nice to Jikai? ]

Ji Kai was shocked when he heard this. This was not allowed!

The eyes of the onlookers suddenly lit up, and their eyes wandered over the two parties involved, wishing they could start a fight right there!

[Please, I just felt sorry for Ji Kai and wanted to help him. I'm jealous. He just deliberately didn't give me face and wanted me to lose face in front of his brothers. I know too well that he will never let go of a grudge.]

Xu Yinyin felt that Huo Yan was just taking revenge on her for preventing him from showing off in front of his parents in the morning.

Xu Yinyin glared at him hatefully, then sat aside angrily and vented her anger on the cake.

Huo Yan was also angry. Why would he sacrifice him to help Ji Kai?

I'm not used to her bad habits!

When Ji Kai saw this atmosphere, he inexplicably felt a little guilty. His sister-in-law was only thinking about him, but it ended up creating a rift between the two of them.

"I'm also thinking about investing in a movie recently. How about Akai recommending some to me?" He Yang volunteered to help.

Ji Kai and Xu Yinyin looked at him at the same time.

[You can't do that. You look like a playboy. Song Qing doesn't like you.]

He Yang: “…”

Wang Xun suppressed his laughter and silently gave up the idea of ​​provoking the devil.

[Although He Yang looks like a playboy, he is really willing to help his friends when they are in trouble. He is not like Huo Gou, who watched them in need without helping. He is a scoundrel! ]

Huo Yan slowly clenched his hands and said, I can bear it!

[Also, he is not being asked to sacrifice himself, just showing up to keep Song Qing hooked, buying time for Ji Kai to pursue his girlfriend, how hard can it be, but he is not willing to do this, what a stingy guy! I will stab you to death!]

Xu Yinyin poked the belly of the bear cake with a fork, then picked up a large piece and ate it. Her puffy cheeks moved, and the faint red color of anger creeping up her cheeks made her look inexplicably cute.

Huo Yan looked at her angry expression, and the anger in his chest was instantly extinguished.

How can a grown man like me argue with a woman? Forget it!

He picked up the coffee beside him, took a sip, and said casually: "If it doesn't have the potential to make 10 billion yuan at the box office, I won't invest."

Everyone present was shocked. Does this mean they agree?

Weren't you so tough just now?

The three of them exchanged glances silently, and then looked at Xu Yinyin tacitly.

The man who was snorting angrily just now suddenly brightened his eyebrows and looked at Huo Yan.

[Oh, what did I say? He is clearly pretending to be so. He wants to make a lot of money, but he still pretends to be indifferent! ]

【Is there a possibility that it is for you! 】

[Yes, in order to make my mood fluctuate, he first stepped on me, then followed me, and acted like a good man. All the fame and fortune were taken away by him, TUI! ]

Huo Yan: “······” Don’t be angry, don’t be angry!

Well, our brother Yan is really in trouble this time.
