Yan Jinyi instantly stopped smiling.
‘What is that old woman here for?’
Suddenly reminded of something, she squinted and sized up Leng Yuxi. “Miss Leng, haven’t you met my grandmother before?”
Leng Yuxi was slightly stunned, her smile was a little stiff, “How could I have met your grandmother before, Miss Yan?”
‘Would it kill you not to pretend for a day?’
“Ah, I finally know why Mr. Huo did not choose you, Miss Leng.” Yan Jinyi shook her head and said very regretfully.
Leng Yuxi kept her guard up. ‘What is this woman planning to do again?’
“Not long ago, you ran to the Huo Group to confess your love to Mr. Huo. After you left the office, you b.u.mped into my grandmother and your conversation with her was also recorded by the surveillance cameras. Miss Leng, how can you say that you don’t know her?”
Leng Yuxi panicked, ready to defend herself but Yan Jinyi interrupted her, “Don’t get so worked up, I know you want to say that you don’t know her but you two seemed really intimate when you were pulling each other!”
‘The old woman also threatened me with divorce.’
“You…”
“Big Brother, Miss Leng specially came over to celebrate your birthday with you. You have to entertain her well!” Yan Jinyi suddenly stood up and pulled Shen Yan up as well. “Yan Yan and I are going to go outside to take a look, lest the old lady says that I’m heartless, right?”
Yang Guifang might be in cahoots with Leng Yuxi by showing up here.
Leng Yuxi realized that whenever she was facing Yan Jinyi, she wouldn’t have the chance to speak at all. Hence, she clenched her fist and waited for Yan Jinyi to leave before looking at Huo Xishen pitifully. “Xishen, what did I do wrong? Why does Miss Yan hate me so much?”
Huo Qingyuan secretly rolled her eyes and thought, ‘You’re trying to s.n.a.t.c.h her husband away, how can she not hate you?’
‘Calling her a pretentious b.i.t.c.h is being too nice to her!’
Yang Guifang was really there to see Yan Jinyi regarding an urgent matter. As soon as she saw Yan Jinyi, she immediately dashed forward to grab her. “Jinyi, you’re finally here. Just take it that I’m begging you to help your uncle’s family, okay?”
‘Hah, that family is finally in trouble!’
Yan Jinyi hid the excitement on her face, covered her lips and coughed while pulling away from Yang Guifang. “Grandma, you must be joking, what can I help you with?”
“Your uncle has been addicted to drugs for some time and mortgaged his house. Now, the debtors have come knocking on our door and making us move out. Jinyi, I know you’ve made a lot of money from acting. Just help your uncle redeem his house!”
‘She wants me to fork out money to help that family redeem their house?’
‘She must still be dreaming!’
“I don’t have money for that,” she immediately replied coldly with a sullen expression.
Yang Guifang secretly cursed, but she couldn’t help it because there was no other solution she had except to beg Yan Jinyi. “If you don’t help your aunt and uncle, your cousins and I will have to sleep on the streets. We are at least your closest relatives in this world, do you really want to see us being reduced to living such a life?”
Those who didn’t know might think that Yan Jinyi was being heartless and cruel to the old woman with a full head of white hair who was crying.However, even if she was the original Yan Jinyi, there was no way she would help.
Not to mention the past. After she transmigrated over, this family had already asked her for money countless times before.
They were just like leeches and vampires that will never get enough blood. Once she gave in, such matters would happen countless times more in the future.
Besides, she just didn’t have any money!
“Jinyi, or I…” Shen Yan did not know Yang Guifang’s family very well and she thought that Yan Jinyi really didn’t have enough money since she had just started a business and had been investing in TV shows. Hence, she was ready to give Yang Guifang some money generously but Yan Jinyi immediately stopped her.
“Yan Yan, we can’t afford to help this family. They still owe me a lot of money!”
