In the end, the pair chose to have fish that had already been caught and was available at the restaurant.
The fish sold at this restaurant was indeed very delicious, especially the fish soup and rice. Yan Jinyi had already had two bowls of it.
Huo Xishen had a clean small plate in front of him and was concentrating on picking out the fish bones.
“How do you guys handle the raw material of diamonds?”
Huo Xishen answered patiently, “We process and polish it.”
“…”
‘So, how in the world did this boring man get married?’
In the Huo Family’s manor back in the city.
Huo Zihang was now at the stairwell while Huo Qingyuan was seated on the couch, holding the hem of her skirt tightly.
Huo Chengyu and Shen Yan were seated opposite each other and the current ambiance was really bizarre.
There was a stack of documents on the coffee table and the words “Divorce Agreement” were particularly eye-catching.
Shen Yan placed both hands on her knees and straightened her back. She was wearing a purple vintage dress and looked particularly elegant.
“I don’t need anything from the Huo family and you, I’ll leave without a single cent of yours. Now, I just need you to sign this agreement, Mr. Huo.” She spoke softly, but with obvious firmness as she glanced at Huo Chengyu calmly.
She had once fallen in love with him at first sight and her heart would race whenever she saw him but now, she could only face him calmly.
“I will announce to the public that I divorced you for my own reasons, and it won’t cause you any trouble.”
After saying that, Shen Yan couldn’t help but look around. “I won’t step foot into this place and cause you any trouble either.”
Huo Chengyu didn’t say anything and instead stared at the divorce agreement on the coffee table.
Usually, he would wear a smile on his face all the time and he seemed like a gentleman. At this moment, he had a cold expression on his face and it seemed impossible to find out what he was thinking.
Huo Qingyuan suddenly grinned and said, “Ah, we’re all a family, why do you have to make things turn out this way? Sister-in-law, did Brother make you upset? Just let me know. We’re all on your side.”
Shen Yan had a good impression of Huo Qingyuan.
She shook her head with a smile on her face, still maintaining the posture of a dignified mistress of the family. “Qingyuan, your big brother and I just don’t have feelings for each other, and if we continue staying married to each other, it won’t be good for either of us. Once we get a divorce, your brother will finally get to marry the person he genuinely likes.”
“But Grandpa only approves of you. Big Brother, quickly say something!”
Huo Zihang began to get a little anxious. ‘Second Sister-in-law likes Shen Yan so much. If she finds out that Shen Yan has left while she’s away for filming, she’ll definitely confront Huo Zihang and me.’
With that thought in mind, Huo Qingyuan quickly winked at Huo Zihang who was at the stairwell.
Huo Zihang covered her mouth and coughed twice. “Huo Qingyuan is right. It’s normal for married couples to have a tiff. Don’t get divorced just because of that. Grandpa is waiting for you to give him a great-grandchild and Second Brother’s illness can’t be cured so soon. Grandpa can only pin his hopes on you and Brother.”
As he spoke, he winked at Huo Qingyuan again.
“Yes, yes, Third Brother is right. Grandpa has been wanting to have a great-grandchild. You and Brother are both so good-looking, your child will definitely be good-looking too. I’m already looking forward to seeing him or her.”
Shen Yan did not get angry and instead just smiled at them. “I believe your next sister-in-law will definitely fulfill Grandpa’s wishes. There’s no point in forcing a failing marriage to work. That will only cause us to be distressed.”
Huo Chengyu did not expect Shen Yan to be so determined.
