Chapter 43: Coming Uninvited
Yun Qing was stunned. Then, she thought of the jade ring that she had taken away. It seemed that Elder Huo had come to collect the debt.
She lowered her head and smiled. She walked to the door of the office and pushed it open.
She looked up — not only Elder Huo had come, but also Huo Qing.
Was he here to interrogate her?
“Don’t you know how to knock when you come in?” Elder Huo sat on the sofa and looked at Yun Qing coldly.
Another show of force?
Was it the international show of force day?
Yun Qing was speechless, but she retained her calm and said curtly, “Elder Huo, this is my office. If you want to knock, feel free.”
As she said this, Yun Qing walked to her desk and turned on her computer. She no longer paid any attention to him.
When he saw Yun Qing like this, Elder Huo was so angry that he blew his beard out and glared at her.
How could Yun Qing dare to treat him like this in the Huo Family?!
“You’re really capable. The moment you got a divorce, you instantly transformed and became the Vice President of the Yun Group. You’ve already found a family, haven’t you?”
Grandfather Huo was aggressive and glared at Yun Qing fiercely.
Huo Qing, who had been tricked by Yun Qing a few times, sat beside him and did not dare to say a word.
“Elder Huo, didn’t you say every day that I’m not worthy of the Huo Family? Now that Huo Chuan and I are getting divorced, the Huo family should be holding a feast and celebrating joyfully. Why do you want to see me every day and take the initiative to look for trouble?”
Yun Qing did not forget the humiliation that Elder Huo, Sun Lan, and Huo Qing had inflicted on her.
They had been in cahoots and never treated her as the Huo family’s daughter-in-law. Instead, they treated her as a “thing” that was worse than a servant.
“Yun Qing! How can you talk to grandfather like that?! Grandfather is your elder, after all!”
Huo Qing could not stand it anymore and began to scold her.
She really did not expect Yun Qing to really look down on Grandfather Huo!
Yun Qing sneered, “First of all, this is the company and the Yun Group. I am the Vice President of the Yun Group and you are outsiders who came to visit us. You should show me some respect. Second, I am no longer the Huo family’s daughter-in-law. You came here uninvited. I am not even obligated to entertain you as much as I already am.
“Since you have nothing to say, I’ll ask my secretary to send you off later.”
Seeing that Yun Qing was drive them out, Elder Huo finally couldn’t hold it in anymore and explained the purpose of his visit. “Alright, I’ll speak my mind. I’m here to get back my jade ring.”
There were many eyes in the casino. The news of Huo Qing losing the Huo family’s ancestral ring to Yun Qing had long been spread in the circle and naturally reached Elder Huo’s ears.
“That ring is my lifeline. I didn’t expect it to be used by this girl to show off and fall into your hands.” As he spoke, Elder Huo glared at Huo Qing. “Name your price.”
Yun Qing had long been mentally prepared. She drawled lazily, “So that’s the case. But… I don’t plan to sell this thing.”
Elder Huo’s eyes widened — not planning to sell it? What did she mean?!
“Yun Qing, no matter how much you want, you can put it on the table!” Elder Huo said through gritted teeth.
Yun Qing smiled leisurely. “Elder Huo, haven’t you always said that I’m a woman who loves money? If I take this money, wouldn’t I fall into your trap? You can even make fun of me as you wish.”
All these years, the Huo family had always regarded her as a parasite and a gold digger. They never once forgot to humiliate her.
Now, it was time to embarrass them.
Elder Huo took a few deep breaths and slapped his chest angrily.
Seeing this, Huo Qing pointed at Yun Qing’s nose and scolded, “Yun Qing, you just want to make our family suffer, don’t you? You deliberately lured me into a trap and cheated me out of the ring, but you deliberately wouldn’t return it to grandfather!”
Yun Qing did not even try to argue and shrugged. “Yes.”
Elder Huo and Huo Qing’s expressions became even more unsightly.
Yun Qing looked at their unsightly expressions as if she had eaten a fly and couldn’t help but clap her hands in satisfaction.
She just wanted to tell them that she, Yun Qing, was not someone to be trifled with.
She wanted to return all the grievances she had suffered for the past three years.
“Yun Qing, we have wronged you for the past three years. We are willing to apologize to you. From now on, we will stay out of each other’s way, okay?” Elder Huo softened his tone, intending to “move people with love.”
“I have punished Xiao Qing and her mother as well. I have come here this time to apologize to you.
