On the way back, the atmosphere was somewhat heavy. Everyone lost their enthusiasm when they thought about the fate of their grandfather's family.
What's wrong with them today? Why aren't they saying anything?
[Could it be that she's jealous that I received a gift?]
[How about I share some with them?]
[My sister is acting strangely today; she hasn't said a word, whereas she used to be the most talkative.]
[Does he also want a gift?]
[Since she can't eat these things anyway, I'll just give them all to her.]
"Little sister, I didn't dare to say much today. I was just thinking that this is your first time meeting your grandparents' family, and I wanted to leave them with a good impression," Huo Jinxin suddenly said, interrupting Huo Jinning's wild thoughts.
[Oh, I see. I thought my sister wanted a gift.]
"Thank you, sister. You're so kind!" Huo Jinning expressed her heartfelt gratitude to her sister with great joy.
As the two sisters chatted, the initially somewhat dull atmosphere inside the car gradually warmed up.
However, Huo Jinxin seemed somewhat absent-minded at the moment.
Actually, she was hiding a little secret—she had developed a slight crush on a boy, and that boy had started pursuing her.
At the same time, she secretly thought about sharing this with her sister and wanting to hear her sister's opinion on the relationship.
More importantly, she wanted to know if this person was the male protagonist in the book her sister had mentioned, the one who had helped her.
However, on the other hand, she was worried that the boy was only approaching her with ulterior motives, and if that were the case, the consequences would be unpredictable.
After much thought, she finally decided to find a suitable time tonight to have a good talk with her sister.
So she secretly made up her mind: that's what I'll do.
At this moment, apart from Huo Jinxin herself, no one else in the Huo family noticed her ulterior motives.
After returning home, everyone began to discuss how to hold a family reunion banquet for Huo Jinning.
Immediately, everyone became enthusiastic and energetic, and began to express their opinions and suggestions in various ways.
Questions arose about which guests to invite, which day to choose for the grand banquet, and where to hold the event. The atmosphere at the scene was incredibly lively and exciting.
After a heated and interesting discussion, Huo Shan finally made the final decision – the family reunion banquet would be held in two weeks, and the venue would be his own villa.
He then immediately issued orders to the servants to clean and tidy the villa courtyard, order the relevant invitations, and take charge of their distribution.
As night falls, it's time to go to bed and rest.
Huo Jinxin finally found the perfect opportunity to have a heart-to-heart talk with her sister alone.
"Sister, is something wrong?" Huo Jinning got out of bed and looked at Huo Jinxin with a puzzled expression.
"Yes, I do have something I want to tell you." Huo Jinxin nodded slightly and said softly.
[Is it because I ran into that jerk, sis?]
[This should be around this time in the original book.]
[No, I need to ask more questions.]
Upon hearing her sister's words, Huo Jinxin was stunned, her eyes widening in disbelief. She wondered to herself: Could there really be something wrong with that boy?
Thinking of this, an indescribable sadness welled up in my heart.
"Sis, what's wrong? Tell me quickly!"
Seeing her sister suddenly fall silent, Huo Jinning anxiously urged her on.
Huo Jinxin took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
So, she quickly gathered her thoughts and deliberately changed the subject, saying, "By the way, little sister, I saw that Grandma gave you a pink diamond bracelet today? That bracelet is so pretty, I really like it! Can you give it to me?"
Hearing her sister say this, Huo Jinning was immediately surprised.
She looked at Huo Jinxin with a puzzled expression, as if trying to figure out why she would suddenly make such a request.
Isn't the issue about scumbags?
Huo Jinxin tried her best to make her tone sound natural and calm, as if she were just joking with her sister.
At the same time, a faint expectation lingered in her eyes, as if she really wanted to get that bracelet.
"Huh? Is that all?" Huo Jinning was clearly surprised that her sister would talk about the gains and losses of the bracelet.
"Yes, that's it. Is that alright?" Huo Jinxin smiled slightly and answered calmly.
At that moment, she was actually very nervous, afraid that her sister would see through her disguise.
"Okay, okay, I'll go get it for you right away." Huo Jinning said as she got out of bed and walked towards the walk-in closet.
Watching her sister's departing figure, Huo Jinxin finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least for now, she had escaped a disaster...
[What happened?]
[Has that jerk shown up yet?]
No, I need to visit my sister's school sometime.
[Prevent that guy from appearing in front of my sister.]
[He learned from others that his sister was a young lady from the Huo family, which is why he intentionally approached her.]
[He wants to use my sister's status to get into the Huo Group and even wants to become a senior executive.]
[At this point in the book, my third brother had just passed away, and my sister was very sad. He then used sweet words to deceive her.]
My sister also had some feelings for him, so she agreed to them being together.
[After they got together, my sister realized he was only using her, so she broke up with him decisively.]
Although this person didn't cause my sister any real harm, I still can't let her be sad.
[So stay away from scumbags.]
Huo Jinxin never expected that her sweet and beautiful love would die before it even began.
But looking back now, it was a good thing. The other person was intentionally getting close to me, and I found out early, which prevented me from getting more and more involved and ending up heartbroken.
Huo Jin thought to herself how lucky she was to have such an understanding, well-behaved, and adorable younger sister.
Little did she know that by trusting her sister, she almost missed out on the person destined for her.
"Sis, here you go."
Huo Jinning smiled and handed her the exquisite box containing the bracelet.
"Thank you, little sister. Actually, I have another diamond bracelet here. I'll get it for you later," Huo Jinxin said shyly.
Actually, she never intended to take the bracelet, but she couldn't find any other suitable reason, so she could only say that.
"No need, sis. I don't usually like wearing these things. Besides, you've already bought me so many, I haven't had time to wear them. Why don't you go and see if there's anything else you like? Oh, and Grandpa and Grandma also gave me a lot of gifts."
"No need, I have plenty too. I just really like pink accessories."
Huo Jinxin quickly waved her hand to explain, afraid that Huo Jinning would give her other jewelry.
