Even though Huo Jingtang had plastered a smile on his face, he was cursing his grandfather in his head.
He remained, as if he was apologizing for his mistake, and said, “I will do my best in the future and make Yunhai better.”
“Good, you may leave now,” Huo Xun said, waving his hand as he turned his back to Huo Jingtang.
With the att.i.tude that Huo Xun was showing, Huo Jingtang could only keep the marriage to himself. He left the Moxiang Residence unhappily.
As soon as he walked out of the residence, his smile disappeared instantly.
One of his subordinates rushed to his side, handing him a file. “Sir, I’ve found out who the little girl is. She’s an online celebrity that goes by ‘Cherry Baby.’”
“You know what to do,” Huo Jingtang said after he’d read the file.
“Yes!”
“Don’t leave any traces behind.”
“Yes, sir!”
A cunning smile appeared on his face.
You cunning old man, trying to chase me out of the family! Then don’t blame me for making the first move!
Huo Jingtang was already picturing how devastated Huo Yunshen would be after he’d lost his daughter.

Xu Xiyan arrived at a mansion the next day, which was at the address provided to her. She’d already guessed that her employer must be someone loaded with money.
She introduced herself to the guard and was led into the living room, which was decorated with crystals.
“Is she here?” a voice from the second floor asked.
“Yes, she’s waiting in the living room.”
Xu Xiyan raised her head and saw Xue Yating coming down from the spiral stairs wearing a light purple dress.
Xue Yating? Xu Xiyan thought. Don’t tell me this is Xue Yating’s house! I thought I was here for a violin job? What does that have to do with her? Wasn’t she in an accident not long ago?
“Jing Xi?” Xue Yating blurted out of surprise as she instantly recognized who Xu Xiyan was. What made her puzzled was why Xu Xiyan was at her home when she’d searched for a violinist through the black market.
“Nice to meet you, Miss Xue.”
“Are you here for me, or…”
Xue Yating wasn’t sure why Xu Xiyan would have come to her house.
“I was sent here by a middleman in the black market. I heard that this place needs a violinist,” Xu Xiyan explained.
“Yes, you’re right…” Xue Yating replied, as she couldn’t believe the coincidence. “Come up here with me, I’ll tell you the whole story.”
Xu Xiyan went up to Xue Yating’s room and heard her whole story.
It was Xue Yating, herself, who needed the violinist double.
After talking for a while, Xu Xiyan told Xue Yating that the “Ye Xun” she’d met at the Huo mansion was herself in disguise. Xue Yating looked at Xu Xiyan with a weird expression, as she couldn’t believe that the first man she’d fallen for was actually a girl.
