Chapter 418 – The Huo Family Preaches Diligence and Frugality

“Third Young Master Huo, it’s been a long time since we met. Are you going to bet some of your assets at today’s event?”

“Third Young Master Huo, is this beautiful masked woman your new girlfriend?”

“Third Young Master Huo…”

In an instant, Huo Zihang and Yan Jinyi were surrounded by lots of people. Zhao Xinchen finally had the chance to meet Yan Jinyi. Seeing this, he wished he could send throw a bomb at them to make them leave.

“All of you, get lost! She’s my second sister-in-law, try getting close to her and see what I’ll do to you!” Huo Zihang hollered.

‘Count yourselves lucky if my Second Brother doesn’t skin you people alive!’

‘Second sister-in-law?’

Everyone was stunned and they soon looked at Yan Jinyi in unison.

‘Wow, doesn’t that mean that she’s the rightful wife of the prestigious Second Young Master Huo Xishen who’s the helmsman of Huo Group?’

The women all looked at Yan Jinyi with jealous gazes. ‘How did she get so lucky as to marry Mr. Huo!?!’

Zhao Xinchen took the opportunity to squeeze into the crowd. “Jin… Second Young Mistress Huo, please take a seat over there, the event is about to begin soon.”

After saying that, he secretly felt a sense of relief.

‘The look in Sister Jinyi’s eyes just now was too terrifying. Fortunately, I was quick-witted enough to react in time.’

Each table here was marked with a number and there were four seats at every table.

As soon as Yan Jinyi sat down, Huo Zihang and Zhao Xinchen eagerly sat down on her left and right respectively.

The heavy curtains by the floor-to-ceiling windows were half-drawn.

“Sir, it’s Second Young Mistress Huo.”

The mysterious man was completely hidden in the dark and his chiseled appearance could be seen vaguely.

He was holding a glass of wine in his hand and swirling it every now and then. “She’s just a country bumpkin who managed to marry into a rich family because of her elders.”

The man’s words were full of disdain and he seemed to have no interest in Yan Jinyi.

“But Missy…”

“Hmph, there’s no need to let her know about such a lowly woman.”

Yan Jinyi couldn’t help but glance at the corner as she had an uncomfortable feeling of being watched by a pair of eyes.

Finally, the event officially began.

As expected of an event that was exclusive to heirs of wealthy families, the host they hired was a famous one.

After reading out some rules, a dozen beautiful women in sexy cheongsam dresses walked over, carrying trays in their hands.

“Everyone, you may place your bets.”

Surprisingly, everyone was extremely eager to put their money and valuables on the line.

Some placed more than 100,000 yuan in cash while some placed their expensive watches and diamond rings that were worth millions. Some even bet with the title deeds of their property.

Soon, it was time for the guests at Zhao Xinchen’s table to do so.

Everyone knew that Huo Zihang would definitely bet something expensive. Being the heir of a famous family of status in the city, everyone was curious about what Zhao Xinchen would bet.

“Second Young Mistress Huo, I’ll bet on your behalf,” Zhao Xinchen waved his hand and placed a bunch of keys on the tray.

“There’s a box in the warehouse that contains three paintings inside, all of which are created by Master Mo.”

The moment they heard the words “Master Mo”,everyone got into a huge uproar.

Master Mo Yu was a famous contemporary painter whose famed works were now rare and difficult to acquire even with tons of money. Yet, Zhao Xinchen managed to take out three at once!

“What are you showing off for?” Huo Zihang humphed, knowing how miserly Yan Jinyi was.

He took out a watch especially calmly, which was also worth a few hundred thousand yuan. However, considering Huo Zihang’s status, they felt that he was being too stingy this time.

“No way, Third Young Master Huo, Mr. Zhao has already taken out three of Master Mo’s paintings and you’re offering only your watch?”

One of the heirs who was quite close to Huo Zihang, teased.

Huo Zihang glared daggers at him and chided, “Don’t you know that the Huo Family values diligence and frugality? I’m already being nice enough to put up this watch for your sake.”

He wanted to say that he was doing it for Yan Jinyi’s sake but he was scared that she might hit him.
