Huo Mian jogged over to help up the woman being beaten, and she saw that it was actually Huo Yanyan .
It had been a few years since they last saw each other . She looked almost the same, except that her expression seemed to have become more mature .
“Who are you? Mind your own business, we’re disciplining this shameless mistress…” a woman arrogantly said .
“Yanyan, what’s going on?” Huo Mian frowned .
“I’m not a mistress, they’re slandering me…” Huo Yanyan was flustered, with messy hair and a torn blouse .
The fact that a crowd gathered to watch made her feel mortified .
Huo Mian turned around to shoo them away and saw a woman with a pink Hermes handbag standing on the edge of the crowd .
It was Wei Ying, Wei Liao’s younger sister .
Wei Ying was also surprised to see Huo Mian . She approached the latter and greeted her, “Sister Mian, how come you are here?”
Because of Jiang Xiaowei, Wei Ying and Huo Mian had dinner together a few times .
They weren’t very close, but Wei Ying knew that her sister-in-law, Jiang Xiaowei, and Huo Mian were really good friends .
“Ying, what’s going on?” Huo Mian asked .
“This woman seduced my husband, she was already after Mingxi before we even got married . She’s a married woman now, but she is still clinging onto my husband . She’s such a whore . I am going to teach her a lesson…” Wei Ying viciously looked at Huo Yanyan and blamed her .
Huo Mian tilted her head, and before she could say anything, Huo Yanyan hastily explained, “I didn’t, it was a misunderstanding . What she said is not true…”
Huo Mian looked at Huo Yanyan’s eyes and thought that she was telling the truth . They had known each other for years, and Huo Mian knew that somebody like her could not keep a secret .
Huo Mian thought for a second and walked up to Wei Ying .
“Ying, considering our friendship, please let it go… We’re in public, let’s not let it get ugly…” Huo Mian tried to convince her .
Wei Ying wasn’t happy with that, but she knew about Huo Mian’s power and status .
“Since you said so, I’ll let it go . But… Huo Yanyan, if I ever catch you approaching my husband with your wicked intentions, don’t blame me for ripping your face into shreds…” Wei Ying warned .
She finally let Huo Yanyan go because of Huo Mian .
Huo Mian took off her black coat and put it on Huo Yanyan .
She dragged the woman out of the shopping mall and into a cafe .
Huo Yanyan finally recovered after some rest…
Huo Mian poured her a cup of hot water and put it in front of her .
“Have some . ”
“Thank you . ” Huo Yanyan never would have believed that Huo Mian would be the one helping her out in times of need after she fell from her high status .
“Wei Ying seems to despise you,” Huo Mian calmly stated .
Huo Yanyan nodded . “It’s because she knows that I used to like Shen Mingxi . ”
“It’s been so long, why would she hold that against you? Unless… Do you still have contact with Young Master Shen?” Huo Mian inquired .
Huo Yanyan’s expression changed . She took a small sip of her water and answered, “Yes . ”
Huo Mian looked at her and didn’t say anything .
“Huo Mian, I got divorced . ”
“Why?” Huo Mian was a little shocked .
She happened to bump into Huo Yanyan on the day of her wedding and even gave her a red pocket . She thought that the construction manager Huo Yanyan was marrying seemed a little old, but he at least looked like he cared about Huo Yanyan .
“Why did you divorce after three years?”
“He had another woman on the other side, and he didn’t want to break up with her . He didn’t care about me and my daughter and spent all of our money on that woman . He didn’t even want to pay for our daughter when she got sick,” Huo Yanyan hatefully said .
“How long have you been divorced?” Upon hearing of what happened to Huo Yanyan, Huo Mian felt sympathetic…
