Becoming a Wealthy Family’s Beloved After Her Rebirth

The first thing Huo Zheng did when he woke up was to call Lin Xiaowan.

Lin Xiaowan answered the call quickly, but she did not speak. He could only hear the sound of her breathing.

After a long time, Huo Zheng said, “Qingqing, I was a little busy with work yesterday.”

Lin Xianwan pursed her lips, angered by his words. Her tone was clearly not very good when she said, “Got it.”

“Don’t be angry.”

“I’m not angry.”

Huo Zheng was speechless. She was clearly angry.

Lin Xiaowan sighed. There was no point in giving him the silent treatment. She said, “I’m really not angry. Your work is important after all.”

However, Lin Xiaowan became annoyed again. She really did not know where Huo Zheng kept her important documents. Without saying another word, she ended the call.

Huo Zheng stared at the phone screen for a while after she hung up. Despite her words, he knew she was still angry.

…

Huo Zheng returned to the company after he changed his clothes. He called his assistant in and said, “Have a look at the latest bags and jewelry and send them to Madam.”

It was not the first time Huo Zheng’s assistant had to pick out presents for his boss. He nodded and quickly left. This was an easy job. Lin Xiaowan was not picky about styles or colors and was very easy to talk to. No matter what was sent to her, she was always happy.

Not long after, Huo Zheng’s phone rang. When he saw the caller, his aura changed immediately. If his subordinates were around, they would have instinctively held their breaths. He looked a little scary at this moment; his expression was extremely gloomy.

…

In the afternoon.

Huo Dabao and Huo Erbao were napping. Qian You’an was worried that Lin Xiaowan’s mood would worsen so she invited Lin Xiaowan out to go shopping. She said bluntly, “Spend his money! The Huo brothers are best at making money. If you don’t spend it, are you going to wait for someone else to spend it?”

Lin Xiaowan thought about it for a moment. She had not completely broken up with Huo Zheng yet. Who was going to spend Huo Zheng’s money? Song Zhiyi? Dream on!

“Wait for me.”

Lin Xiaowan rushed to her room and rummaged through the cabinets for a long time before she found the card in a pink card holder.

The card was given to her indefinitely by Huo Zheng. She could use it as much as she wanted, but she had never used it once in her previous life.

‘If not now, then when?’

Lin Xiaowan put the card in her bag and quickly went downstairs, seemingly in a better mood. She called out, “Sister, let’s go shopping! I’ll pay for everything today with Huo Zheng’s card!”

…

The Celine store was particularly busy today. There was a queue in front of the store, and most of the people were exquisitely dressed women. Apparently, a new line of jewelry had been launched.

Lin Xiaowan and Qiao You’an decided to join the fun.

When the sales assistant saw Qiao You’an, she greeted Qiao You’an and showed her the collection enthusiastically.

Among the jewelry, there were rings as well. They were not very formal and were very colorful, giving off a young and casual vibe.

Qiao You’an glanced at the simple platinum ring on Lin Xiaowan’s finger and said, “Huo Zheng is too stingy. Why did he buy such a ring to propose? When he comes back, you should ask him for a shiny pigeon-egg-sized ring!”

Lin Xiaowan shrugged and smiled; she did not say anything. However, she clenched her hands and hid them, looking slightly uncomfortable. In her previous life, Huo Zheng had given her an extremely shiny diamond ring.

Lin Xiaowan was a little lost in thoughts. In her previous life, Huo Zheng had personally worn the ring for her during their wedding. Although a diamond was just a stone, he had put a lot of effort into the diamond ring. He had looked around the auction houses all around the world before he finally chose the most beautiful one for her. When that diamond that was worth millions was handed to the designer, the designer had been worried about messing it up.

Lin Xiaowan and Huo Zheng’s marriage was not publicized, and the media was unaware of it. The designer only revealed the beautiful and unique diamond ring without revealing any details after obtaining permission from Huo Zheng.

…

After leaving the mall, Lin Xiaowan wanted to get milk tea so Qian You’an accompanied her.

Qian You’an looked at Lin Xiaowan and asked, “This place isn’t far from Huo Zheng’s company. Do you want to drop by for a surprise inspection? ”

Lin Xiaowan shook her head. “Forget it. He’s very busy.”

Lin Xiaowan had no interest in checking up on Huo Zheng. In her previous life, she was caught off guard. The only time she decided to check up on him resulted in her death. In this life, it was better to forget about such a thing.

Lin Xiaowan did not check up on Huo Zheng, but Huo Zheng unexpectedly came to her. To be precise, Huo Zheng and Song Zhiyi came to her unaware.

The two of them stood at the entrance of Yiran Restaurant as they chatted. Huo Zheng’s assistant was not with him so it was obvious that he was here for private matters.

Lin Xiaowan’s expression was a little icy while Qiao You’an’s expression was rather terrifying.

Qiao You’an had met Song Zhiyi before, after all. Although Song Zhiyi had changed a lot, she could still recognize Song Zhiyi. She dragged Lin Xiaowan over angrily; almost stomping holes in the ground with her high heels. She said mockingly, “Oh, what a coincidence! I heard that Second Young Master Huo was very busy with work. How did he have so much time to come to Yiran Restaurant?”

Qiao You’an usually addressed Huo Zheng by his name. It was clear that she was furious based on how she addressed him as ‘Second Young Master Huo’.

Huo Zheng panicked for a moment when he saw Lin Xiaowan and Qiao You’an, but he quickly forced himself to calm down. There were some things he could not explain clearly now.

Song Zhiyi, who was dressed in a maxi dress, smiled gently and said, “Hello, Sister-in-law, long time no see.”

Qiao You’an scoffed. Although she had a good impression of Song Zhiyi when Song Zhiyi first visited the Huo family, she had to consider Lin Xiaowan, who was now Huo Zheng’s partner. She said, “Who’s your sister-in-law? You broke up with Huo Zheng 800 years ago. Currently, apart from the family’s dog, only Xiaowan can call me ‘Sister-in-law.”

Huo Zheng, who had just been indirectly compared to the family’s dog, was speechless.

Song Zhiyi did not seem to take Qiao You’an’s attitude to heart and remained polite. She acted as though this was her first time meeting Lin Xiaowan as she extended her hand to Lin Xiaowan and said, “Are you Xiaowan? Brother Huo spoke about you many times.”

Lin Xiaowan did not expose Song Zhiyi nor did she reach for Song Zhiyi’s hand. Her expression was cold as she said, “No need.”

Song Zhiyi was not embarrassed. After the two women’s hostile reception, she only looked at the silent man next to her with a slightly hurt expression and said, “I mean no harm. Did Xiaowan misunderstand something? Brother Huo, you have to explain it clearly.”

Lin Xiaowan rolled her eyes. She remained calm as she scolded, “Even perfume can’t hide your foxy stench. What’s the matter? You can’t find another man after leaving your Brother Huo so you came back to look for him? Do you derive pleasure from having an affair with someone’s boyfriend?”

Then, Lin Xiaowan glanced at Huo Zheng before she continued to say, “Or perhaps, Second Young Master Huo likes the thrill that comes from two-timing me?”

Qiao You’an looked at Lin Xiaowan in shock. After all, Lin Xiaowan was usually very soft and agreeable. She felt as though her understanding of Lin Xiaowan had been refreshed at this moment.

‘You’re quite good at talking!’

At the same time, doubts grew in Qiao You’an’s heart as well. Yesterday, Lin Xiaowan had asked if Huo Zheng had been in a relationship before. That meant that Lin Xiaowan did not know about Huo Zheng’s past relationship. However, based on what she had seen so far, it seemed like Lin Xiaowan knew Song Zhiyi.
