Chapter 379 - 379: Flowers Go Well With Beautiful Women
"You took away my hard-earned money that I was planning to use for my tuition fees. For the sake of being able to pay for tuition, I swallowed my pride to become the mistress of an ugly old man. I worked hard to get to the status that I have today. What does it have to do with you?"
At this point, Liu Ran sneered in derision, "So what if I played some unscrupulous tricks in between? Everything is fine as long as I can get what I want."
With a furious look on her face, the middle-aged woman snapped, "Liu Ran, are you insistent on not helping your younger brother? Do you believe that I"ll contact the media immediately and expose all your dirty deeds?"
Liu Ran immediately panicked. "Mom, I"m your daughter too, why are you showing favoritism to my younger brother?"
"Blame it on the fact that you"re a girl, you were born to be his slave. Since you"re earning a decent income now, you should spend some money to let your brother lead a better life. He can"t go to prison, or his life will be ruined once he has a criminal record! Can you bear to see the bloodline of our family cease?"
Liu Ran said coldly, "You want a million yuan, huh? This is the last time I"m going to help you."
The middle-aged woman was holding Liu Ran in her arms and saying in a warm tone, "Good, I knew you wouldn"t bear to let your younger brother suffer."
Yan Jinyi watched the entire process and she couldn"t help but be reminded of her aunt who had tried to borrow money from her on several occasions.
She didn"t expect such a selfish woman like Liu Ran to have such a horrible mother who forced her to bear the responsibility of supporting her brother.
"No wonder this woman wants to marry a wealthy man so badly. Forget it, I"ll let her off this time."
After the both of them left, Yan Jinyi finally walked out slowly and stared at Liu Fan"s back.
"Since her mother showed up here, does this mean her sugar daddy is somewhere around too? What"s wrong with these actresses? Can"t they just do their jobs decently? Acting pays very well too!"
Her cell phone rang again, and this time, it was Shen Yan who called. It was a video call.
Yan Jinyi picked up immediately.
Soon, Shen Yan"s pretty and exquisite face appeared on the screen.
Yan Jinyi blinked and said in a sweet and clear voice, "Shen Yan."
Shen Yan was still as gentle and elegant as usual. She grinned and moved the cell phone further away from her face. "Zihang called the crew and they said you got off from work early today. Why aren"t you home yet?"
"Do you miss me? I"ll be right back!"
After hanging up, Shen Yan looked up at Huo Xishen and said, "She"ll be home soon."
Huo Xishen nodded and scanned Shen Yan from head to toe.
Feeling a little shy and awkward, Shen Yan touched her face and said in confusion, "Why? Is there something on my face?"
"Sister-in-law, maybe you should work harder."
"What for?"
Huo Xishen stood up and answered as he walked upstairs, "To win Brother"s heart."
Shen Yan moved her lips and remained silent in the end.
"Win his heart? How?"
Huo Zihang and Huo Qingyuan were also waiting for Yan Jinyi together with Shen Yan. They had already heard about what happened at the base this morning.
They wanted to learn a thing or two from her.
After looking around, they finally saw Yan Jinyi who had returned.
She was holding a bunch of flowers that she had picked from the roadside. When she saw Shen Yan, her eyes lit up and she walked over gleefully.
Handing it to Shen Yan, she said, "Sister-in-law, I picked these for you. Fresh flowers are the best accessory for a beautiful woman."
Watching Shen Yan take the flowers from Yan Jinyi whose hands are now empty, Huo Qingyuan couldn"t help but ask, "Second Sister-in-law, where"s mine?"
Yan Jinyi looked at her in disdain and stopped smiling. She glanced at Huo Zihang and said impatiently, "Get him to pick some for you."
