Chapter 164: When Have You Ever Borrowed Money From Me?

Shen Yan smiled particularly tenderly as she looked Yan Jinyi in the eye and said, "Grandpa likes you very much, I think he will like the gift that you give him too."2

'That old man likes the former Yan Jinyi, what does it have to do with me!?'

'I'm just a poor female bandit who's being exploited to no end by my evil husband despite being penniless!'

"I don't have any money." 

With a pitiful expression, Yan Jinyi reached her hand out to swing Shen Yan's sleeve. "Sister-in-law, that dog Huo Xishen terminated my black card. Nowadays, when I go out, I have to borrow money from Huo Zihang to pay for my cab fare. I don't have any money to get a gift for Grandpa." 

'Damn it!'

'Yan Jinyi, are you out of your mind?'

'When have you ever borrowed money from me?'

'Aren't the box office sales of your film very high?'

'Also, stop being so pretentious, it's irking me!'

Huo Zihang roared in his heart. 

Seeing how pitiful Yan Jinyi was, Shen Yan sighed secretly as she didn't expect her sister-in-law to have such a tough life. 

When she heard that Huo Xishen had been mistreating Yan Jinyi, Shen Yan somehow thought of herself and her clear, bright eyes gradually became dim. 

She smiled and held Yan Jinyi's hand in hers. "Jinyi, you can tell me if you have any problems in the future. There's an auction in the city tomorrow night and I was intending to go to the auction and see if I can get a gift for Grandpa. Come with me, if you see anything you like, you can let me know and I'll help you get it. How does that sound?"

'Ah, she's indeed worthy of being a gentle and likable beauty. Sister-in-law is an angel!'

Yan Jinyi suddenly grinned widely and said, "Sister-in-law, you treat me so well, I really don't know how to repay you. Why don't I give myself to you in return?"

Huo Qingyuan shivered while Huo Zihang's eyes widened. Shen Yan looked surprised too.

Yan Jinyi tried her best to recall the tone of voice of the prime minister's daughter that she had teased in her previous life. She then looked at Shen Yan with tears in her eyes and her chin trembling. Sobbingly, she asked, "Sister-in-law, are you despising me?"

'Damn it!'

'Yan Jinyi is really out of her mind!'

Knowing that Yan Jinyi was an actress, Shen Yan simply took it that she was just acting and pulling her leg. "Okay, I know you are good at acting. Go change out of your clothes first and come down for dinner. Qingyuan showed me some snippets of that film you starred in just now, your acting is really superb."

'This beauty is so charming even when she's praising me.'

'Actually, there are advantages to being Huo Xishen's wife.' 

'Unfortunately, I'm not a man, or else...'

Before Yan Jinyi prepared to go upstairs, she suddenly thought of something and turned around. Looking at Shen Yan particularly solemnly, she said, "Sister-in-law, if Huo Chengyu mistreats you, feel free to tell me about it. I'll help you teach him a lesson and send him to your room so that you can take revenge and torture him!"

"Uh..."

Huo Zihang secretly heaved a sigh of relief and thought, 'Right, this is what Second Sister-in-law is supposed to be like.' 

The auction was held in a famous clubhouse in Shenyang, which was exclusively meant for auctions. The organizer of the auction was Tang Qing.

The clubhouse was Tang Qing's turf too. 

Yan Jinyi knew that the Tang Family and Huo Family were at odds, and they would usually stay away from each other, but she didn't expect Shen Yan, the dainty and weak beauty, to have the guts to appear on Tang Qing's turf. 

However, Yan Jinyi was fortunately going to protect her. 

The people there were all from the top wealthiest families of the city and Shen Yan, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo Family, had every right to be there. A lot of people knew who she was. 

In the dimly lit office, Tang Qing leaned lazily on the sofa, with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Mr. Tang, Shen Yan, the daughter-in-law of the Huo Family is also here. She brought someone with her, who seems to be Second Young Mistress Huo who has been very popular recently."
