Chapter 430: Chapter 430: Insult Tang Qing With The Card?
“Talking about money puts a strain on relationships. Mr. Huo, why don’t you just give the card to me?”
Yan Jinyi reached her hand out as she spoke.
‘You’ve terminated my card and you have the cheek to ask me what I think of it. How shameless of you.’
To her surprise, Huo Xishen really took out his money clip and put an extraordinarily dazzling black card on her palm.
Yan Jinyi raised her chin a little to pretend to be arrogant but she couldn’t take her eyes off the card.
‘He’s giving me the principal card? What is Doggy Huo trying to do? Humiliate Tang Qing with his credit card?’
“Miss Yan, don’t you like mountains?” Tang Qing suddenly asked.
Yan Jinyi first took a look at Huo Xishen’s black card before turning to look at Tang Qing, stuck in a dilemma.
‘Doggy Huo might be giving me the principal card but what if it’s already been terminated?’
‘But what if it hasn’t? The money would be enough for me to buy several mountains.’
“Miss Yan, do you like the ocean? I may not have much of everything else but I’ve got lots of land. Maybe I can give you a seaside villa where you can go to after you get sick of being on the mountain.”
‘Is he making it convenient for me to expand my side hustle and become a pirate?’
“Darling, that mountain is quite good, the Huo family escort team can protect you.” Huo Xishen wrapped his fingertips around a segment of Yan Jinyi’s long hair and started playing with it, looking rather ambiguous. “Since you and I are a married couple, the rent is waived.”
Huo Xishen emphasized on the words “married couple”.
Only then did Yan Jinyi suddenly realize that she couldn’t leave the Huo Family just yet because at least before she becomes fully-fledged, she would still need their protection.
“Mr. Tang, I suspect that you are trying to sow discord in the relationship between me and my husband.”
Tang Qing disagreed. “Beautiful and demure women appeal to all men. Miss Yan, you’re so outstanding and gorgeous, it’s only normal for me to carry a torch for you.” Tang Qing stood up and continued, “In this case, I won’t impose on you any further. Miss Yan, you’re welcome to come and harass me whenever you wish.”
Tang Qing grinned at Yan Jinyi sinisterly before leaving suavely.
Huo Xishen took his hand off Yan Jinyi’s back and said, “Darling, you attract too many men, I hope you’ll get these messy entanglements sorted yourself.”
Yan Jinyi stared at his back and sneered. ‘You seem to be the one who has the most number of suitors.’
Apart from Huo Qingyuan, the rest of the Huo siblings were extremely appealing to the opposite sex as they all had a long list of admirers.

Tan Sangsang had been very distracted lately and she would often dream of Mu Mu getting snatched away by Huo Zihang.
In the dream, Huo Zihang’s face was hideous and menacing as he kept humiliating her by calling her a loose woman. He even said that the Huo Family would never accept her even though she had given birth to Huo Zihang’s son.
“Tan Sangsang, the news article you’ve written lately are all so nonsensical. You’re in charge of the society news edition, not the tabloids or entertainment section!”
The chief of the publishing house slammed a roll of newspaper onto her desk with a loud thud, giving Tan Sangsang a huge fright.
“Sir, I’ve been too busy with taking care of my son lately, I really didn’t have the energy to scour for news.”
“It doesn’t cost much to hire a babysitter. If this goes on, you can forget about clinching the Outstanding Employee Award at the end of the year…”
After being berated for an entire hour, Tan Sangsang finally dragged her exhausted self away from her office.
‘It’s all Huo Zihang’s fault!’
Tan Sangsang gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. If it wasn’t for him, she wouldn’t have ended up in such a state.
Yan Jinyi had just returned from the mountains. The construction speed of the workers there was quite fast, as she could already vaguely see the prototype of the Black Cloud Fortress.
As soon as the car entered the main city, she got a call from Tan Sangsang.
“Jinyi, what do you say we go for some drinks at a bar? It’s on me. The bar is near the cluster of colleges, I’ll send the address to you.”
Tan Sangsang sounded a littled upset.
“Are you sick?”
“No, it’s just easier to get some juicy news at places like bars. Just take it that you’re doing me a favor, will you?”
