“Darling, you’re used to being modest.” Looking like a meticulous and considerate husband, he bent forward and whispered into Yan Jinyi’s ear, “Are you tired?”
The two of them were very close to each other and seemed to be rather intimate.
The wives of wealthy men were jealous.
However, they were really an attractive couple.
Yan Jinyi sneered.
‘These people intentionally want to embarrass me, of course I have to pay them back in their own coin.’
“It’s rare for us to get together. I heard there is an archery range nearby and I’ve always wanted to try it, can I go?”
Yan Jinyi raised her head and looked at Huo Xishen pitifully with watery eyes.
Huo Xishen’s Adam’s apple moved and he said, “I’ll accompany you.”
Yan Jinyi blinked and asked, “Just the both of us?”
“Yes.”
‘No! My intention is to abuse those scums!’
Mrs. Li got rather excited and nudged Mrs. Wang who was beside her. “Archery? Mrs. Wang likes extreme sports like archery. Second Young Mistress Huo, you can compete with Mrs. Wang. Why don’t we place bets?”
‘Does archery count as an extreme sport?’
‘Forgive me for being ignorant.’
Yan Jinyi smiled sweetly and said, “Sisters, let’s all go together then.”
‘Sisters?’
Those who were older were naturally delighted to hear that but Mrs. Wang who was about the same age as Yan Jinyi, frowned. She was clearly displeased.
‘What are you being so conceited about? I used to be an athlete who competed in archery. You want to compete with me?’
The sky had already darkened. The thought of defeating Yan Jinyi later lifted Mrs. Wang’s spirits.
“Second Young Mistress Huo, you’re being too polite. Mr. Huo, please come here!”
The sky was already getting dark, and they chose to enter the shooting range.
Knowing that Huo Xishen was coming, the owner of the archery range hurriedly asked all the people present to leave.
“Mr. Huo, there are now no outsiders except you. I hope you’ll have fun.”
Since it was his first time seeing so many big shots, the owner was particularly cautious.
“Yes.”
Huo Xishen nodded and pulled the chair back to sit down.
Seeing this, everyone returned to their seats.
“Second Young Mistress Huo is going to compete with Mrs. Wang while we play at the side. Why don’t we lay our bets?” Mrs. Li suggested.
Mrs. Wang covered her lips and chuckled lightly. “If I win, the bets will all be donated to the charity fund, so as to help those in need.”
After she said that, the wives of wealthy men all praised her for being kind while Mr. Wang looked at her with admiration.
“Second Young Mistress Huo, what do you plan to do with the bets if you win?”
Yan Jinyi answered rightfully, “Of course I’ll take all of them.”
‘Is Second Young Mistress Huo such a money grubber?’
Huo Xishen was not surprised either. Yan Jinyi loved money and that was no longer a secret in the Huo family.
“In that case, I’ll use the necklace my husband gave me last year as a bet!” Mrs. Li was unusually generous as she swiftly took off the necklace on her neck.
The dark blue gemstone of the necklace was particularly eye-catching. Although the design was a bit tacky, it was obvious that the necklace was exorbitant.
Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Zhou did the same.
Mrs. Zhou’s husband was only a vice chairman whose status was the lowest among this group of people. Hence, he was very cautious and deferential towards everyone.
She had obviously obtained her husband’s permission to take off her watch. “We ordered this custom-made watch last year, although it costs only a few hundred thousand yuan, it’s a token of my blessing.”
At this point, she first looked at Yan Jinyi, seemingly hesitating.
