“Are you asleep?”
“You are…?”
Huo Mian didn’t recognize the number and thought that someone had sent it to the wrong person.
“Haha… You don’t even remember my number… Then how did you know to ask me for help at the pool hall?”
At the mention of the pool hall, Huo Mian realized that this person was Huo Siqian.
She really wasn’t familiar with Huo Siqian at the moment. The other day, she contacted Huo Siqian through Brother Jun’s lackeys at the pool hall.
She did not save his number, but his number was just a series of 6s and 8s.
Huo Siqian was definitely the one with such a good combination of numbers; it was his style to be high-profile.
“What is it?” Huo Mian’s tone didn’t sound good either.
The truth was, her dislike of Huo Siqian had something to do with him being part of the Huo Family.
In Huo Mian’s eyes, no one in the Huo Family was good, especially Huo Zhenghai, and Shen Jiani and her son and daughter.
She had interacted with them a few times since she was young, and she was always mocked by them.
Fortunately, over the past few years, Huo Mian didn’t let her mother look for him or ask Huo Zhenghai for money.
It could be said that they had severed ties with the Huo Family…
She really didn’t know why Huo Siqian was looking for her.
Upon hearing how heartless Huo Mian was, Huo Siqian immediately called her…
Huo Mian hesitated for a moment before answering the call.
She pulled the covers over her head and crawled under the covers, lowering her voice.
After all, she didn’t want her mother to know that she had any connections with the other members of the Huo Family.
“Huo Siqian, what are you trying to do?” Huo Mian tried her best to suppress her voice.
“I’m not doing anything… I just want to ask, Sister Mian, you’re such a loyal person… why would you kick me to the curb after I’ve outlived my usefulness?”
Huo Siqian laughed as he spoke.
However, Huo Mian could still hear the sarcasm in his voice.
Huo Siqian did help her and Lingling that day.
After that, she left in a hurry and did not say anything.
So, was this guy asking her to return a favor?
Huo Mian thought about it and calmly replied, “You helped me the other day, I’m very grateful.”
“Just a little gratitude?”
“I can give you whatever you want as long as I have it… I have less than 100 yuan on me, and if you want it, I’ll give it to you.”
Huo Mian thought that there was nothing she could do to repay Huo Siqian.
Except for the 80 or so yuan on her.
Upon hearing Huo Mian’s words, Huo Siqian burst out laughing.
“100 yuan… Are you kidding me? It’s not even enough for a bowl of Hagen-Dazs.”
“How can we poor people compare to you rich…” Huo Mian’s face turned cold; she didn’t give Huo Siqian any face over the phone.
“You’re not poor… You’re my dad’s daughter… as long as you’re willing to come back…”
“Shut up… I’m not going back.”
It wasn’t that Huo Zhenghai didn’t acknowledge Huo Mian; he wanted her to go home previously.
However, Yang Meirong couldn’t go back, and Shen Jiani wouldn’t tolerate her existence.
Therefore, Huo Zhenghai wanted Huo Mian to go back to the Huo Family so that Jiang Hong could raise her.
Jiang Hong was the eldest wife and Huo Siqian’s adoptive mother.
However, Huo Mian’s mother immediately rejected the idea.
No matter how poor she was, she would never send her daughter there. What kind of place did the Huo family have?
With that vixen Shen Jiani around, how could Huo Mian survive?
She would be bullied to death by them…
Seeing how agitated Huo Mian was, Huo Siqian laughed again. “I was just teasing you, don’t be so nervous… Sister Mian, I actually really like you… Do you believe me?”
