‘Second Sister-in-law, I haven’t turned 20 years old yet, can you let me live for a few more years?’
Huo Qingyuan secretly wailed.
“Second Sister-in-law, didn’t you make Uncle Zhang move Big Brother’s skull back to his room too?”
Glaring at him with her beautiful eyes, Yan Jinyi said, “How can that be the same? Why did he place a skull there for no reason? Is he scared that others don’t know what he does? Besides, I told Zhang Guoquan to wrap that thing in layers of plastic to protect it. Are my chips getting looked down upon because they’re cheap?”
“…”
‘Second Sister-in-law, you’re sparing a thought for the potato chips, but they may not necessarily appreciate it.’
All of a sudden, the sound of steady footsteps came from the second floor.
Yan Jinyi subconsciously looked up and saw Huo Chengyu making his way down in a white lab coat.
He was very tall and had similar features to Huo Zihang. However, he seemed to be much more mature than Huo Zihang.
He looked especially aloof and charming in the white lab coat and his silver-framed glasses.
“Big Brother, this is Second Sister-in-law.”
Walking gracefully towards Yan Jinyi, the handsome Huo Chengyu said with a slight nod, “Sister-in-law.”
Yan Jinyi looked up and said, “Don’t call me that.”
Other than old Mr. Huo, everyone else in the Huo Family used to be hostile towards the former Yan Jinyi, so she didn’t find it strange that Huo Chengyu seemed to despise her.
However…
“I heard that you moved all my snacks to the wine cellar, is that true?”
“There is no need for there to be junk food in the house. They’re unhealthy,” Huo Chengyu said in a gentle voice, but the gaze in his eyes was distant.
“The Huo Family’s mansion is so large. Huo Xishen is definitely entitled to a few square meters of space, right?”
Yan Jinyi retorted.
Huo Chengyu couldn’t help but glance at her. “Yes.”
“I’m his wife, so his territory is mine too. There’s nothing wrong with that, right?”
Huo Chengyu nodded.
The smile on her face instantly faded and she placed her hands on her waist. “What’s wrong with placing some snacks on my own territory then? Why? Do you despise snacks and are you hoping to let those manufacturers go out of business? Also, my stuffed toys…”
Yan Jinyi pointed to the TV cabinet that had been emptied. “Did you not have a childhood or what? Why are you so disdainful towards them?”
‘Yan Jinyi…’
Huo Chengyu frowned, feeling that Yan Jinyi seemed to be different from what he remembered.
“So what if you’re a good doctor? Back then, I used to be a bandit… Back then, I used to be an osteopathic therapist. I’m well-equipped with skills. You’re just relying on advanced medical technology. In ancient times, you probably won’t be able to recognize any herbs!”
‘Yan Jinyi used to be an osteopathic therapist?’
‘That’s rare.’
Huo Chengyao did not get angry and instead even laughed. “Sister-in-law, can you really fix fractured bones with your bare hands?”
Yan Jinyi raised her chin proudly and said smugly, “Of course.”
“It just so happens that I have a rather special patient. Sister-in-law, since you’re so impressive, why don’t you tag along with me?”
Yan Jinyi looked askance at Huo Chengyu, secretly thinking about it.
She was not a fool and knew who she could work with and who she couldn’t. Huo Chengyu was clearly much more reliable than Huo Qingyuan and Huo Zihang.
She waved her fair hand and said hostilely, “I’m charging a consultation fee of 100,000 yuan. Cash or bank transfer?”
‘100,000 yuan to fix a fracture?’
‘Xishen’s wife is indeed unique.’
“If Sister-in-law could cure, 100,000 yuan would be just a small amount.”
Yan Jinyi grinned widely and patted Huo Chengyu’s shoulder. “I like straightforward people like you. Sure, lead the way!”
