Chapter 83: Night Before the Divorce the Villainous Family Can Hear My Thoughts!

 Chapter 83: Mrs. Huo, Choose Between Me and Gold

"Ah, Dad, so you know you were blind back then!" Wen Yintong looked at him playfully. "How could she compare to my mother? She’s not even worthy of polishing my mother’s shoes, yet you remembered her all these years."

"You're still laughing at me!" The old man glared at her angrily. "If you weren't blind, would you have been deceived by that piece of garbage, Huo Yunshan, all these years? Stop it, stop it, don't be a hypocrite."

Wen Yintong: "…"

"Hahaha…" Huo Yushu laughed triumphantly and cheerfully.

"You still have the nerve to laugh!" Two reprimanding voices rang out.

The old man: "You’re no better! You couldn’t even see through Huo Yuyan! Yet you pretend to be so close to her!"

Wen Yintong: "You still have the nerve to laugh? Don’t you know what your fate will be? If I were you, I’d reflect on myself. You’re all about the ‘love brain’!"

Huo Yushu: "…"

She hadn’t said anything, so why was she getting scolded?

"Isn’t ‘love brain’ our family heirloom?" She blinked her innocent eyes and said, "Didn’t Grandpa pass it down to Mom, and then Mom passed it to me and my brother?"

"…"

"Shut up!" Both father and daughter shouted, clearly in a panic, trying to cover their unease with loud voices.

"Oh," Huo Yushu nodded.

Then, as if thinking of something, her beautiful eyes sparkled like a cunning little fox. "Grandpa, Mom, we can't just sit and wait for death, right?"

"Now that we know their true colors, shouldn’t we fight back? Perfect, since Sister-in-law isn’t here, let’s have a meeting of the ‘love brain’ family across three generations and plan how to deal with those scumbags."

"I’ll state my position first." She cleared her throat, then seriously said, "I definitely want Huo Yuyan to spit out everything she has eaten."

"Also, yesterday, she set me up again. She’s already introduced me to the man who made my ‘love brain’ go haywire."

"What?!" Wen Yintong was furious. "Make sure you have your head on straight this time. If you get tricked by them again, I won’t save you!"

"Mom, don’t worry!" Huo Yushu nodded repeatedly, her smile radiant. "How could I fall into the same pit twice? My brain is not just for decoration, it actually has some knowledge inside."

"Don’t worry, this time, I’ll turn the tables and use their own tricks against them."

Wen Yintong sighed with relief. "Just make sure they don’t fool you again. Don’t get tricked, and listen to what Chengzi says."

"Right, right!" The old man nodded in agreement. "It’s always right to listen to little Chengzi. This family can do without anyone, but not without her."

"I know, Grandpa. Sister-in-law is the backbone of this family!" Huo Yushu said, giving a thumbs-up.

"Dad, I plan to sell the villa I’m currently living in and move in with you." Wen Yintong thought for a moment and said seriously, "I’m also going to sell the villa where Yu Fengcai and her son are living."

"Yes, yes! Sell everything under your name." The old man agreed.

The three of them exchanged a look and smiled with delight.

Qin Xin Garden

Shen Cheng had been sitting on the ground motionless for half an hour.

There was a pyramid made of gold in front of her.

Yes, a real gold pyramid.

It wasn’t tall—only about a foot wide and a foot high—but it was enough to blind her eyes with its dazzling shine.

【Ah! Ah! Ah! I’m not dreaming! I’m not dreaming! All this sparkling gold is mine!】

【At least that dog man, Huo Xingjian, has some conscience!】

【Hahaha... I finally saw a pyramid with my own eyes. It’s even more adorable than Huo Xingjian by a hundred times.】

Not so adorable. Huo Xingjian slowly walked over, squatted down in front of her, blocking her view of the gold pyramid.

"Hey, what are you doing? You’re blocking my view!" Shen Cheng glared at him angrily.

"Mrs. Huo, I’m giving you a multiple-choice question." His face was serious, and he spoke slowly, "Choose between me and this pyramid of gold."

"What pyramid!" Shen Cheng retorted. "It’s a pyramid! Move, don’t block my view of its cuteness! Do I even need to hesitate? I definitely choose—"

"You only have one chance!" Huo Xingjian interrupted her, his tone threatening. "Think carefully before you answer!"

Shen Cheng: "…!!!"

【That dog man, threatening me again!】

【Am I out of my mind, that I would choose you over gold? Gold shines, it makes me happy, can you do that?】

【You can only make me angry, hurt my chest, and make me furious. What else can you do?】

【Oh, you can cheat on me! You can flatter Li Qingxue and worship her, while trampling on me!】

【Choose you? Am I tired of living?】

"Hubby~ Do I even need to think? I’ll definitely choose you! You’re like walking gold!" She gave him a dazzling and seductive smile, looking at him affectionately.

Her gaze and expression were so sincere that, if he didn’t hear her inner thoughts, Huo Xingjian would’ve believed her.

Hah!

Huo Xingjian let out a cold laugh in his heart but didn’t rush to expose her.

He gazed back at her with the same deep affection, a satisfied smile playing on his lips. "Hmm, I’m very pleased with your answer."

Shen Cheng nodded, her smile even brighter.

【Then why don’t you hurry up and disappear from my sight? I don’t want to see you, I only want to look at my gold!】

【What are you still standing there for? You’re Huo Xingjian, not a wooden stake! Please hurry up and leave!】

"Hubby~ Do you have any other questions?" She smiled sweetly and asked patiently.

He gently stroked his chin, looking as though he was deep in thought, yet showing no intention of leaving.

At this moment, Shen Cheng was smiling on the outside, but cursing him internally.

After a while, Huo Xingjian finally spoke, "You’re right."

"What?" Shen Cheng looked confused.

Then...

"Ah!" She screamed, "What are you doing? Why are you hugging me?"

Huo Xingjian easily picked her up by the waist and started walking toward the stairs. His voice was calm as he said, "Since you said I’m like walking gold, then of course I should show you the gold you like most."

What?!

Shen Cheng stared at him, her mind blank, not knowing how to react.

Until...

She was "thrown" onto the soft bed, and soon after, he pressed down on her like a mountain.
