Chapter 391: Chapter 391: Heard You’re Getting Divorced
Laughing like a rogue, Tang Qing said, “I’d like to choose Second Young Mistress.”
Tang Qing was seriously challenging Huo Xishen’s limits at all times.
Huo Qingyuan shook his head. ‘They’ve been at odds against each other for several years, doesn’t Tang Qing have any self-awareness at all?’
“Mr. Tang, you’re not good enough for me. You have an hour’s time to bring her here or I’ll wreck your auction house immediately.”
Tang Qing didn’t doubt her words at all because he knew that she was entirely capable of doing so.
He had heard about Zhao Xinchen’s incident from Dong Xu. Resting his face in his hand, Tang Qing felt extremely conflicted.
‘Why does Zhao Xinchen deserve such good treatment from her? It’s not like his family is richer than mine.’
“Go bring Jinyi’s grandmother here,” Tang Qing said to his underling.
‘That old lady is indeed with Tang Qing.’
Chen Yulian straightened her back and began to get into the mood.
Soon, an old lady walked over with Tang Qing’s help.
She was wearing a set of brand new clothes with her white hair tied into a bun secured at the back of her head. Although she was already in her seventies, she seemed to still be in the pink of health.
Yan Jinyi began to search her memories carefully again.
The original Yan Jinyi did have a maternal grandmother named Yang Guifang whom she rarely met. Besides, her grandmother had always been biased to her son so she never showed much concern to Yan Jinyi’s mother who got married and moved to the town later on in her life.
‘No wonder I don’t have a deep impression of her.’
“Ma’am, this is your granddaughter, Yan Jinyi,” Tang Qing introduced affectionately.
Yang Guifang had a hostile expression at first but when she looked at Tang Qing, she immediately smiled radiantly. “Tang Qing, didn’t you say that Jinyi is here?”
As she spoke, Yang Guifang scanned the room and finally fixed her gaze on Huo Qingyuan. She then immediately walked over and held onto Huo Qingyuan’s hand. “Jinyi, I didn’t expect you to be so grown up now. Do you still recognize me? It’s all my fault for not visiting you often, I can barley recognize you now.”
Huo Qingyuan coughed awkwardly and said, “Ma’am, I’m Jinyi’s sister-in-law, she’s over there.”
She then pointed to Yan Jinyi who was munching on an apple with one leg crossed over the other.
In the past, Yan Jinyi used to be somewhat ladylike but as she gradually let herself go, she became more and more unfeminine. It was no wonder her grandmother was mistaken.
She smiled and said, “Oh look at me, I’m old and silly. I remember that Jinyi used to like wearing dresses so when I saw you in a dress, I assumed you were Jinyi.”
‘Do I like wearing dresses? Not really…’ Yan Jinyi thought as she looked at the sweater and jeans that she was wearing.
“Jinyi.” Yang Guifang turned to walk towards Yan Jinyi and sat down beside her. “I’m sorry sweetheart, your parents refused to bring you to visit me and I had to take care of the things at the ancestral home so now…”
Seeing that Yang Guifang had mentioned the ancestral home, Chen Yulian hurriedly walked over with a smile and stood in front of Yang Guifang, afraid that she would announce her will to let Yan Jinyi inherit the ancestral home.
“My dear mother-in-law, why didn’t you inform me before coming here on your own? Do you know how worried I was about you?”
Yang Guifang seemed to be quite nice to her daughter-in-law. She patted Chen Yulian’s shoulder to comfort her, “Tang Qing said that he’s going to bring me to meet Jinyi.”
“By the way, Jinyi, Tang Qing said that you’re planning to divorce your husband. It’s quite a good idea to get divorced if your marriage wasn’t built on love. Why don’t you consider Tang Qing and give him a shot?”
Huo Qingyuan, Huo Zihang, Zhang Guoquan, and all the other servants who had been watching the scene quietly from the side, all turned to look at Huo Xishen in unison.
‘Can he tolerate this?’
Huo Xishen stood up and picked up the teacup on the coffee table to take a sip of tea before saying, “Serve Grandma some tea.”
Yang Guifang had been paying attention to Huo Xishen who was seated beside Yan Jinyi.
She could tell at first glance that the handsome young man, Huo Xishen, was a scheming person.
