Chapter 63: Night Before the Divorce the Villainous Family Can Hear My Thoughts!

 Chapter 63: Huo Yuyan, You Owe Me a Lot of Money, Time to Pay Back (1/2)

The Moonlight Bay Bar was a familiar haunt for Huo Yushu and Huo Yuyan.

Huo Yuyan was six months older than Huo Yushu, and the two had grown up together, often sharing the same bed during childhood.

To Huo Yushu, Huo Yuyan was like a real sister.

Before hearing Shen Cheng's inner thoughts, Huo Yushu would never have believed that her aunt's family harbored any ill intentions toward them.

If anyone dared speak ill of Huo Yuyan in her presence, Huo Yushu would flip out on the spot, forcing the offender to kneel and apologize.

Huo Yuyan’s words held great influence over her. No matter the circumstances, a single call from Huo Yuyan would make her drop everything and rush over as fast as possible, regardless of how important her own matters were.

In Huo Yushu’s eyes, her older cousin was the most important person in the world.

But now...

Ha!

Huo Yushu sneered inwardly.

Now that she knew the true colors of that family of ingrates, she would let them reap what they had sown. An eye for an eye.

It was the perfect time of evening at the bar.

Moonlight Bay wasn’t a rowdy place. It leaned more toward being a quiet lounge, where friends could gather in private rooms, have a few drinks, listen to soft music, and chat peacefully, enjoying the relaxing atmosphere.

When Huo Yushu and Shen Cheng pushed open the private room door, Huo Yuyan had already arrived.

She wasn’t alone; several mutual acquaintances were also present—heirs and socialites from their circle.

They were Huo Yuyan’s usual sycophants, though many now fawned over Huo Yushu as well.

After all, Huo Yushu’s social standing was on another level.

When Huo Yuyan saw Shen Cheng, she paused briefly, a fleeting emotion flashing through her eyes, though she quickly masked it.

"Yushu, you’re here," she greeted warmly, standing up from the sofa with a friendly smile and opening her arms for an enthusiastic hug.

But Huo Yushu deftly sidestepped it without a trace. "Where’s my gift?"

She beamed radiantly, extending her hand expectantly toward Huo Yuyan.

Huo Yuyan’s outstretched arms froze awkwardly, her smile stiffening as she rolled her eyes playfully and scolded, "You’re still as impatient as ever."

"Would I forget your gift? I told you I brought something for you, so of course I did."

"Where is it? Where?" Huo Yushu’s eager face brimmed with curiosity. "I’m dying to know what you got me. You’ve always been so stingy!"

"How am I stingy?" Huo Yuyan retorted, glaring at her.

"How are you not stingy?" Huo Yushu said with a serious expression. "Every time we went shopping, it was always me footing the bill, no matter how big or small the expense."

"From dresses costing over ten grand to a cup of milk tea, it’s always been my money."

"Oh, right! Even that outfit you’re wearing now—I paid for it, didn’t I? Just last month, you said the store released a new collection you loved, but Aunt didn’t have money to buy it for you, so you asked me to cover it."

"By the way, do you have money now? If you do, pay me back. I’m strapped for cash myself. Eighteen thousand eight hundred—it’s no small amount!"

"You have no idea—I’m so broke right now my wallet is cleaner than my face!"

"Yushu..."

"Oh, right! And don’t forget to return all the money I covered for you before! I’m so short on cash, I’m tempted to sell my blood." Huo Yushu interrupted her, putting on an unusually serious tone.

She pulled out her phone, scrolling through her notes. "I’ve kept a record. Oh, look at this, Huo Yuyan! Over the years, you’ve had me cover... ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, hundred thousand, million, ten million..."

"My goodness! It’s over 148 million yuan! And this is just the recent stuff—the earlier amounts are on my computer! Huo Yuyan, how in the world did you manage to burn through so much money?"

"No way, no way! You have to pay me back! Over 100 million yuan! I could open a studio with that kind of money! I’m broke; hurry up and pay me back!"

Huo Yuyan felt her lips twitching uncontrollably as she stared at Huo Yushu in disbelief. She couldn’t believe her ears.

"Yushu, no, you must be mistaken! I couldn’t possibly owe you that much!"

"Yeah, yeah, Yushu, you must’ve made a mistake. How could Yuyan owe you that much money?"

"Exactly! Besides, you two are sisters—you’ve always shared everything! What’s the big deal about buying her some clothes?"

"Yushu, you’ve always been so generous. No need to make things hard for Yuyan over a little money. Look, she’s gone pale from fright!"

Several of Huo Yuyan’s lackeys chimed in, trying to smooth things over, making excuses on her behalf.

[Is Huo Yushu snapping? Is she about to fall out with Huo Yuyan?]

[Oh, right! It all started yesterday when Huo Yuyan introduced that man to her. The naive sweetheart fell for his charm completely, losing all sense of direction.]

[For the sake of her so-called love, she went to plead with Huo Jianjian, begging him to arrange a job for the man in their company.]

[When Huo Jianjian refused, she threw a tantrum, even resorting to wrist-slashing to threaten him.]

[In the end, Huo Jianjian had no choice but to relent.]

[Little did she know that man was just another gold digger, just like Huo Yunshan—only after money. And he was in cahoots with Huo Yuyan.]

[The two had been together for a while, and Huo Yushu was merely their stepping stone. After they got together, he never even touched her.]

[That one time Huo Yushu thought they were intimate, it turned out the two had drugged her, sending her to a man with AIDS. They then accused her of promiscuity and contracting a filthy disease.]

[Sigh, poor naive Huo Yushu, who never realized until her dying breath that she was set up by her so-called sister Huo Yuyan and the man she loved most.]

Huo Yushu: “...!!!”

Damn it!

For the first time, the little princess wanted to curse out loud and pin this vile woman, Huo Yuyan, to the ground.

Taking a deep breath, she suppressed her anger and forced a sweet smile toward Huo Yuyan.

"Ah, I was just kidding with you! Look at how scared you are! Do you even know me? What’s mine is yours—always has been!"

"Alright, alright, don’t worry! Forget one million—even if it’s two million, I won’t ask you for it."

Hmm, but I’ll make sure Huo Yunshan pays.

Hearing this, Huo Yuyan let out a long sigh of relief and smiled in satisfaction.

"Come on, come on, order anything you like, ladies. Eat, drink, and enjoy yourselves to the fullest!" Huo Yushu said with a radiant smile.

"Yushu, you’re treating us?" someone asked cautiously.
