Chapter 5: Tens, hundreds, thousands...where is her ten thousand?
Jiang Qia slept until night.
When she woke up, it was already dark outside.
Jiang Qia couldn't help but frown when he thought of his attitude towards Huo Xiulin today.
She was not worried that Huo Xiulin hated her.
Because Jiang Qia had no interest in Huo Xiulin, even if he hated her, it would not be a loss to her.
She is not a wealthy woman, so how can she be liked by everyone?
What Jiang Qia was worried about was that Huo Xiulin would find out that her personality was not right and become suspicious of her.
There was a dull pain in the stomach.
In the original novel, this body is sickly and it is not fake.
Jiang Qia's body was not so weak before.
Jiang Qia really couldn't get used to the fact that he suddenly went from being healthy to being sick.
Jiang Qia walked out of the room and faintly heard voices coming from downstairs.
The man's voice was old and stern: "Wen Yi, your wife's actions this time are very serious. You must take good care of her and prevent her from bringing shame to the family."
Jiang Qia walked to the front of the stairs. She didn't expect that Huo Wenyi would come over.
Huo Xiulin said sarcastically, "Grandpa, you deserve a lid that matches your pot. Who knows, maybe Jiang Qia took the medicine this time just because of him."
Jiang Qia's eyes turned cold.
Sure enough, she was not wrong to hate Huo Xiulin so much when reading the novel.
This kind of male protagonist is really mean and low.
Mr. Huo coldly rebuked Huo Xiulin: "Shut up!"
Huo Xiulin turned his head away reluctantly.
Huo Wenyi said in a nonchalant tone, "I understand."
Old Master Huo nodded and said, "Jiang Qia just came back from the hospital and didn't eat anything at night. You should go see her. You are usually busy with work, so you can ask Xiulin to help you. Spend more time with Jiang Qia and try to have a child soon."
Jiang Qia didn't want to meet the villain yet and wasn't ready to challenge the big boss. When she heard the sound of someone coming up the stairs, she went back to her room.
She had just sat down on the bed when the door suddenly opened.
Jiang Qia slowly raised his eyes.
The man's facial features were as handsome as if carved from marble, and his eyebrows were clear, like the ink color lightly outlined with a brush, with a sense of coolness yet softness.
The nose bridge is high and straight, which complements the thin lips. The corners of the lips are slightly upturned, outlining a perfect arc, which is neither too ostentatious nor too natural.
The man had a tall and slender figure, and his haute couture suit was well-tailored, but it did not conceal his noble and elegant temperament at all.
The bedroom light seemed to cast a veil over him, outlining a soft and warm outline.
The person standing there was like an exquisite painting, making people unable to help but take a few more glances.
Jiang Qia asked tentatively: "Huo Wenyi?"
Huo Wenyi smiled and said, "Madam, long time no see."
“…”
To be honest, Jiang Qia felt that Huo Wenyi's looks and temperament were suitable for being the male lead.
An angry and narrow-minded man like Huo Xiulin is very suitable to be cannon fodder.
But... now should be the early stage of the novel.
It has been less than a year since Huo Wenyi was adopted into the Huo family.
Maybe he hasn't turned evil yet?
Looking at this handsome and noble face, Jiang Qia really couldn't believe that the other party would commit murder and arson.
The article says that after getting married, Huo Wenyi hated the original owner to the core.
Now listening to his tone, it seems that the description in the article is not quite right.
Jiang Qia: "I'm thirsty, let me go downstairs and drink some water."
Huo Wenyi didn't say anything else to her.
After Jiang Qia went downstairs, he found that he didn't know where the kitchen was.
She saw that there seemed to be a light on in a room, the door was not closed tightly, and light came out from inside.
Jiang Qia wanted to find someone to ask, so he walked over.
As a result, she heard the voices inside again.
"Grandpa, you always favor Huo Wenyi. Have you ever thought that I am also your grandson? You clearly said before that all the Huo family's property belongs to me!"
"What do you know?" Old Master Huo's voice was a bit disappointed. "He's been out there for so many years, and I watched you grow up. Don't you know who I prefer?"
Huo Xiulin gritted his teeth: "Then why did you——"
"Xiulin, don't forget that Huo Wenyi's tech company is worth $100 billion. The traditional industries the Huo family has invested in are bound to decline," said Mr. Huo. "You only care about the Huo family's assets. Don't you want more?"
Holy crap! ...!!!
As soon as I walked in, I heard such an exciting conversation.
Jiang Qia really didn't expect that Mr. Huo accepted Huo Wenyi back into the Huo family not to let Huo Wenyi recognize his ancestral roots and divide the Huo family property in the future.
It turned out that he was targeting Huo Wenyi's assets.
To be honest, Jiang Qia finally understood why Huo Wenyi turned evil and took crazy revenge on the Huo family, destroying the Huo family.
Even if a normal person comes here, he will go crazy when faced with such a heartless family member.
What's more, the reason why Huo Wenyi was sent to the orphanage and suffered so much in his childhood was because Huo Xiulin's parents were jealous of Huo Wenyi's parents and deliberately threw Huo Wenyi out.
Generally speaking, anyone who overhears someone telling a secret will be silenced.
Jiang Qia didn't make any sound, but left quietly.
She finally found the kitchen.
Having not eaten for almost the entire day, Jiang Qia wanted to drink a bottle of Coke.
However, when he thought of his sick body, his stomach ached slightly, so Jiang Qia poured himself a cup of hot water.
After returning to the room, Huo Wenyi had already taken a shower and came out of the bathroom.
Jiang Qia was a little embarrassed.
There is only one bed here. Does she have to sleep with Huo Wenyi?
The novel clearly states that the two have been living separately since their marriage and have no substantial relationship.
In her original world, Jiang Qia had no experience in love, and she didn't want to get too close to a man she didn't know.
And this man is a crazy villain who jumped from a tall building.
Huo Wenyi said, "There is a sofa on the terrace. Madam, please sleep there."
Jiang Qia was puzzled: "I am a woman and you are a man. Why do you let me, a woman, sleep on the terrace?"
Huo Wenyi smiled slightly: "Three million, I'll put it on your card tomorrow."
Jiang Qia found it funny.
In the real world, she is a small star whose 60% of income is taken away by an unscrupulous company. If you give her three million, she would not hesitate to sleep on the terrace, on the roof, or in a haunted house.
But now the character she has transformed into is a famous resourceful lady in the entertainment industry, a rich lady!
It is said that her stepfather is a big boss!
Can three million yuan buy off Miss Jiang?
What a disgusting joke!
Jiang Qia took out his phone and showed him the balance of his bank card: "Do you think three million can let me sleep on the terrace?"
"I didn't expect Madam to have spent all her living expenses again." Huo Wenyi said slowly, "No wonder she tried to break into the safe and steal things when she came to my place a week ago."
Jiang Qia glanced at his mobile banking app page.
Tens, hundreds, thousands...what about her ten thousand?
What's the matter with this balance of 3,078.8?
Jiang Qia calmly carried a pillow and went out: "If you want me to sleep on the terrace sofa, it will cost at least 3.01 million. You have to charge it to my card before 9 o'clock tomorrow. Don't forget."
Yes, Jiang Qia was afraid that he would go back on his word, so he only dared to add 10,000 yuan.
