Chapter 2128 - Foolish Fantasies (19)
“No need to thank me. It’s not like we’re wrongly accusing that b*tch of something she didn’t do. She deserves to be punished! I consulted my team of lawyers and they said that she’s most likely going to be sentenced to at least ten years of prison because she tried to blackmail you for a large sum of money… Also, Yingzi was involved in pornography and sex trade. Our country has been targeting the sex industry and she basically got caught red-handed!” Su Yu chuckled proudly.
“Persisting in doing evil deeds brings about self-destruction. She’s done so much evil that it’s not strange how God will take care of her… I just feel a bit bad for Ni Yang, with all those things she had the heart to do to him…” Huo Mian exclaimed.
“Doctor Huo, not everyone is as kind as you. If they were, then the world would be a much more peaceful place.”
“I’m not kind. I sometimes have my own schemes but I’m just not as evil as her…”
When Huo Mian said this, she recalled how many b*tches she had to deal with.
It was truly a tiring journey. It started with Jiang Linyue, then Song Yishi, Zhao Qingya, and Jian Tong… There was also Mo Xue’er, Wang Shasha, Yan Ruoxi… She had to deal with so many women that wanted to wrong her. Some were because of Qin Chu, some were because of Su Yu, while others were because of Huo Siqian.
They all had their advantages. There were even times that Huo Mian didn’t want any involvement with them but they just came at her.
In the end, she had to fend off the enemies with all her power, and it might even make it seem like she was the most vicious one out of them all since she was the victor.
Sometimes, life could only be summarized by a bitter smile.
“Okay, okay… You don’t have to act so humbly with me… Since you helped me so much this time, dinner’s on me. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t want dinner with just you and me. I’m going to treat your whole family to dinner,” Su Yu emphasized.
“It’s fine. Don’t worry about it. We’ve known each other for so long. Also, Ni Yang is like my little brother and helping him is something I should do. Us teaming up together against Yingzi was a natural thing to do, so no need for dinner.” Huo Mian declined the dinner offer.
“You really don’t want it?”
“Yeah, it’s fine.”
“Fine. Thanks for saving me the money then…” Su Yu joked.
“When we come to your place for dinner, make sure to prepare a lot of seafood.”
“No problem. My mom has been nagging me about when you guys are coming. She says she misses you,” Su Yu said with a smile.
“I’ll be less busy in a few days. I’ll go to visit Mrs. Su then.”
“Okay, just call me before you come.”
“Okay.”
“I’m going to hang up now. Take care of yourself okay? You’re a mom now so don’t just go workaholic mode,” Su Yu nagged.
“Okay, okay, President Su. I understand,” Huo Mian chuckled.
Then they hung up the phone.
Since the twins complained that their parents went out on a date without them, Huo Mian and Qin Chu ran home as soon as they got off work.
The food Uncle Li prepared was as healthy and delicious as always.
In the midst of the cold winter, the whole family sat around the table having hot-pot while having a great conversation.
“Ning-Ning, I heard you’re going back already?” Huo Mian asked. She had overheard Pudding say that Qin Ning had already booked her return flight to the States.
“Yeah, if I don’t go back soon, my dad will go nuts…” Qin Ning smiled.
“Don’t go, Ning-Ning. Stay a bit longer. Why don’t you stay till New Year’s is over? Qin Chu’s parents are coming back for Chinese New Year’s and if you and your dad were here, then the whole family would be reunited!”
