Chapter 283: My Wife Has Suffered Hardship When She Was A Child

“Seems like Second Young Mistress Huo lives a carefree life without discipline,” gibed the wife of one of the wealthy men present.

She looked about the same age as Yan Jinyi, but the man beside her was clearly in his fifties.

Yan Jinyi didn’t answer and simply looked at Huo Xishen smilingly. “Hubby, who’s this?”

‘Hubby?’

Huo Xishen stiffened and he stared at Yan Jinyi with a deep gaze in his eyes.

Yan Jinyi winked at him and said in a sweet voice, “It’s my first time meeting guests outside of our home, I’m so nervous!”

“…”

If Huo Zihang and Huo Qingyuan were around, they would have definitely thought that Yan Jinyi had been possessed by a ghost.

With a stern and handsome face, Huo Xishen said, “This is Mr. Wang, the chairman of Sky Dawn Departmental Store, and his wife, Mrs. Wang.”

‘This is obviously the wife of his second marriage.’

Despite making that remark in her head, Yan Jinyi said with a smile, “Hello, Mrs. Wang, my husband usually dotes on me a lot and lets me do whatever I want at home.”

Mrs. Wang was even more jealous after hearing her words.

She was about the same age as Yan Jinyi and being a former school belle, she was absolutely pretty too. A woman of her standard could definitely marry an eligible bachelor like Huo Xishen. Yet, she ended up marrying an old fogy.

“I see. There are rumors that the two of you have never appeared together in public because your relationship with each other is hostile.I was quite worried but I’m at ease now that I know how loving you are to each other.”

‘What are you worried about?’

‘Trust you to have the cheek to say such words.’

Yan Jinyi resisted the urge to insult her.

Although she used to be a bandit, it didn’t mean that she had poor judgment.

The people in front of her were all business elites. She was now no longer in the Black Cloud Fortress but in modern society.

The fact that they were all dining with Huo Xishen meant that they were his business partners.

Huo Xishen did not like her in the first place. If she ended up offending them and got thrown out because of that, she would be in hot soup. She wasn’t financially self-sufficient now!

Yan Jinyi smiled and was ready to take Huo Xishen’s arm, but she stopped when she reached it out halfway.

‘Right, Huo Xishen is misogynistic.’

However, to her surprise, Huo Xishen actually took the initiative to hold her hand, his eyes full of indulgence.

“Since my wife has had a childhood full of hardship, she naturally has to live a carefree life after marrying me.”

‘Wow! Incredible! Is this really the scheming, dark, cold, and unfeeling Huo Xishen who hates women?’

The women present were even more jealous.

Yan Jinyi stared at Huo Xishen’s side profile in bewilderment.

She could sense his hand trembling.

‘You’re feeling uncomfortable, why do you still insist on holding my hand?’

Everyone else thought that Yan Jinyi was looking at Huo Xishen affectionately.

“Second Young Mistress Huo is so lucky, haha,” Mrs. Wang remarked with an insincere smile.

Dinner officially began and the men naturally discussed their businesses while the few wives of wealthy men began whispering about which beauty salons were good and the latest designer goods.

Yan Jinyi held a glass of juice and took a sip every now and then.

‘It turns out the people of the upper class society are all so boring. This is even more boring than the get-togethers of royals during my time.’

‘At least, the scheming and sarcastic exchange of remarks between royals are quite interesting to watch.’

“Second Young Mistress Huo, I’m the wife of the chairman of Li Corporation.”

The middle-aged woman closest to Yan Jinyi suddenly said.

She was a little chubby and although there were wrinkles on her face, her skin was in good condition. She was wearing a Chanel suit and would deliberately reach out to fix her hair from time to time, so as to flaunt the large diamond ring on her ring finger.

Yan Jinyi nodded indifferently and said, “Hello, Mrs. Li.”
