Huo Mian had a bad feeling about this, so she grabbed her bag and rushed in.
Sure enough, she saw Jiang Hong in a dark red cheongsam. She was Huo Zhenghai’s official wife and was talking to her mother.
Huo Siqian and a few bodyguards were standing next to her. It was a grand scene.
Frightened, Zhixin hid in his room, not daring to come out.
It was obvious that they were up to no good.
“Sister Mian’s back?”
Huo Siqian was always full of smiles, especially after he saw Huo Mian.
“What are you guys doing here?” Huo Mian asked impolitely.
She threw her bag and glared at Jiang Hong and Huo Siqian.
“So this is Mian… she’s already so tall.” Jiang Hong smiled.
However, Yang Meirong still looked very serious.
“Mrs. Huo, please leave. I’m just an ordinary housewife right now. I’m not talented, scheming, or useful, so you’ve found the wrong person…”
“Sister Meirong, I’m here to prove your worth… Even if you don’t think for yourself, you should think for your children… Do you know what kind of education Mian will receive if she goes back? After high school, she’ll go abroad to further her studies. With her intelligence and brain, it’s easy for her to get into a world-class university… But studying abroad requires an expensive fee. I’m not looking down on you guys, but you really can’t afford it. It’ll cost at least a million yuan to study abroad for four years… After graduation, she can come back to work at the Huo Corporation… or stay abroad. I won’t interfere with that. This is her freedom… She’ll have a better future, won’t she?”
Jiang Hong tried to persuade Yang Meirong, and she could tell that Yang Meirong wasn’t completely unmoved.
Mian was indeed a good seedling. If she groomed her, she would definitely be capable.
Their family would definitely not even dare to think about studying abroad. Even if the school waived the fees, they would still have to rent a house for meals and pay for the daily expenses for the next few years.
Overseas, especially in Country M, it would cost a rather large sum of money.
“Mrs. Huo, thank you for your kindness, but I’m born poor… I don’t want to go abroad, so I don’t want to leave the country… I’ll leave myself to fate. I’ll accept whatever my mom raises me to be. As for you, time is precious, so stop wasting your time here… Okay… and take your people with you, I’m going to do my homework.”
Jiang Hong glanced at Huo Mian. “You’re still too young to understand the importance of material things.”
“That’s where you’re wrong. I went to Second High School because I knew the importance of material things too well… However, if these material things came with conditions, we won’t accept them because we’re not old bulls and don’t want to be led by the nose.”
Huo Siqian almost laughed out loud when he heard Huo Mian insult Jiang Hong.
Originally, he had never liked to get involved in Jiang Hong’s affairs. He hated this old woman from the bottom of his heart.
However, Jiang Hong was coming to Mian’s house that day, so he acted like an obedient child just to see Huo Mian.
Reality proved that he was right. Huo Mian was too charming when she dissed people.
Huo Siqian loved it.
However, he did not show it.
“You… really don’t know what’s good for you.”
“You’re the second person today to say that I don’t know what’s good for me. Instead of scheming and using us, why don’t you think of a way to deal with Shen Jiani and her daughter?”
“You…” Jiang Hong was speechless.
