Chapter 56 - 56: Can't Even Beat A Few Girls
There was some menace between the woman's pretty eyebrows, and her rosy lips were slightly pursed as she carried a bag in one hand and a wicker in the other.
Huo Qingyuan's gaze dimmed when she saw her, and her expression became strange too. 'Why is it Yan Jinyi?'
"Who are you?" Zhao Xinyue questioned, staring at Yan Jinyi.
"It's none of your business."
Yan Jingyi cast an indifferent glance at her before walking towards Huo Qingyuan.
"Who won the fight?"
Huo Qingyuan didn't respond and instead asked Yan Jingyi in a hostile tone, "What are you doing here?"
"To see how useless the daughter of the Huo Family is. She even gets into a fight with a kid."
Zhao Xinyue was enraged to hear her words. She abruptly stood up and pointed at Yan Jinyi's face. "Hey, who are you calling a kid? I'm the daughter of the Zhao Family. Are you tired of living?"
Yan Jinyi furrowed her beautiful brows and raised her wicker. Smacking it against Zhao Xinyue's hand gently, she warned, "Shut up before I lose my temper."
'Where did this crazy woman come from?'
"Don't tell me you're the new girlfriend of Third Young Master Huo. Hah, you're just a dowdy woman who's destined to be dumped. Do you really treat yourself like his wife? Are you trying to stand up for Huo Qingyuan?"
"Zhao Xinyue, shut up. If there were fewer people here, I would have beaten you up terribly."
Huo Qingyuan snapped angrily.
Yan Jinyi moved the corner of her eyes and glanced at Huo Qingyuan. 'Does this mean that Huo Qingyuan has lost the fight?'
Soon, the head of the department entered and was stunned to see Yan Jinyi. "Miss, you are..."
"Huo Qingyuan's family member."
Yan Jinyi turned around and sat on the single sofa seat, crossing her slender legs in a lazy manner.
She said coldly, "Tell me what happened."
'Huo Qingyuan's family member?'
"You and Huo Qingyuan..."
"I'm her sister-in-law."
The head of department came to a sudden realization. "So it's Young Mistress Huo!"
Pointing at Huo Qingyuan, Yan Jinyi clarified, "My husband is her second brother."
???
Everyone in the room was astounded.
'Huo Qingyuan's second brother?'
'Isn't that Huo Xishen, the current CEO of the Huo Group?'
'Oh right, there were rumors spread by an insider of the entertainment industry that Huo Xishen has gotten married. Could it be true?'
The head of department was more interested about the matters of the entertainment industry than the ignorant schoolgirls who did nothing except get into trouble.
He finally recalled something.
'Isn't this woman... Yan Jinyi?'
'Is Yan Jinyi the Second Young Mistress of the Huo Family?'
Seeing the shock on the head of the department's face, Yan Jinyi squinted her eyes and smiled tenderly. However, as soon as she spoke, the intense murderous intent in her voice made him shiver.
"As the head of department, you should focus on teaching. You should also be very clear about what to say and what not to."
The head of department wiped his cold sweat and nodded profusely. "Yes, yes, yes."
"So tell me about it. What's going on with them?"
"They seem to have fought because of a studious boy, who is a stellar student. Both of them fancy him, so they got into a fight."
"What about the others?"
"Ahem, except for those two, the rest are Zho Xinyue's friends."
'Huo Qingyuan was really outnumbered!'
Huo Qingyuan was already upset to have lost the fight and she was further infuriated when she was bombarded by Yan Jinyi's questions.
"Hey, Yan Jinyi, stay out of my affairs."
Yan Jinyi suddenly stood up and whipped her wicker against the sofa.
She hollered in a loud and clear voice that made them shudder, "You're the daughter of the Huo Family, but all you do is get into fights instead of studying. You're a disgrace to the Huo Family and so, I should take you in hand."
"Besides, they're just a few girls and you can't even beat them. You're so weak. Huo Qingyuan, I feel ashamed for you!"
