"So, according to you, you hope my lady will deal with that young punk Huangmao and let this matter go?"
The old man tested the waters. If sacrificing Huangmao could calm the situation, it might be considered worthwhile.
Huo Ziyan's mind became active as she weighed the pros and cons in her heart.
Huangmao was just a plaything of hers, though he pleased her more than others, she didn't really have feelings for him.
If sacrificing him could win Lin Beichen's friendship and goodwill, then it's a deal worth making.
Huo Ziyan fell into deep thought.
"No wonder that brat Huo Yongtao is so close to Lin Beichen. The moment he sees Lin Beichen, he idolizes him like a devoted fan. It seems both he and my uncle have it all planned, waiting for my old man to die, then pull Lin Beichen as their external backup to usurp my family's fortune."
"I absolutely cannot let them succeed!"
Thinking of this, Huo Ziyan couldn't help but laugh out loud, her eyes sparkling with delight.
