Chapter 360: Sister Jinyi Is His Parent
Jiang Zhao had already turned pale from the pain and when he heard her words, he asked contemptuously, “So you’re here to take revenge for Zhao Xinchen. Are you his girl?”
‘Girl? He said I’m Zhao Xinchen’s girl?’
Yan Jinyi squinted and stepped on him while his face turned pale, feeling as if his organs were about to be crushed.
“You… Just you wait… I will make you…pay the price for this…”
“Is that so?” Yan Jinyi smirked and said, “I’ll wait for you to make me pay the price.”
After saying that, she kicked him hard on his body before turning around to leave.
Dumbfounded, Dong Xu watched what was going on while feeling indescribable admiration for Yan Jinyi.
‘Sister Jinyi is really suave!’
‘It’s such a blissful thing to be Sister Jinyi’s underling. You can enjoy her protection too.’
As soon as Yan Jinyi came close, Dong Xu hurriedly unscrewed the cap of the bottle of mineral water and handed it to her. “Sister Jinyi, you must be thirsty, have some water.”
Yan Jinyi took it with one hand and said, “In the future, don’t bother being polite to Jinyi when you see him.”
“Yes, Sister Jinyi!”
‘Seems like I have to put the establishment of Black Cloud Fortress on the agenda.’
When Yan Jinyi returned home, Huo Xishen was sitting on the sofa.
He was wearing home clothes and had a laptop resting on his lap. When he saw her, he closed it expressionlessly and asked coldly, “Darling, where di you go?”
Yan Jinyi wasn’t in a good mood so she was quite cold to Huo Xishen. “I got rid of some evil being.”
“I heard that Zhao Xinchen got beaten up,” Huo Xishen remarked.
Yan Jinyi turned to look at Huo Xishen, not surprised that he was aware of that. “And so?”
Looking at her small, delicate face with his deep eyes, Huo Xishen pressed his lips together.
‘She went to the hospital to visit him. I didn’t expect that Zhao Xinchen would mean so much to her.’
“Darling, your birthday is around the corner.”
Yan Jinyi asked nonchalantly, “Mr. Huo, are you planning to give me a gift?”
Huo Xishen suddenly stood up and looked down at her from above. “I’m just wishing you a happy birthday in advance.”
Her birthday was a few days before New Year’s Day.
Yan Jinyi stared at Huo Xishen’s back, slipping into a trance.
Back when she was in the Black Cloud Fortress, the former leader would cook Yan Jinyi a bowl of longevity noodles during her birthday each year.
After the former leader passed away, longevity noodles became a taboo for Yan Jinyi. To be more precise, she would avoid celebrating her birthdays.
If Huo Xishen hadn’t mentioned it just now, she would have almost forgotten about her birthday.
She had spent the two decades of her previous life and the 500 years in Hell, in loneliness.
But here…
She looked around and realized that she had a home, a family, friends, and a few underlings.
‘I should be spending my birthday happily this year.’
Yan Jinyi smiled a little.
Zhao Xinchen was lying on the bed and watching some anime when Dong Xu scurried over while panting heavily. “Mr. Zhao, you definitely didn’t expect this, Sister Jinyi has taken revenge for you just now!”
Zhao Xinchen immediately sat up, putting a strain on his wounds. He was in so much pain that he started seething.
After taking a deep breath, he tried his best to ignore the pain and then started asking eagerly, “You mean Sister Jinyi went to confront Jiang Zhao and took revenge for me?”
“Yes!” Dong Xu’s eyes were glistening. “Mr. Dong, you should have seen how domineering she was when she went forth and kicked Jiang Zhao…”
Dong Xu started describing enthusiastically while Zhao Xinchen’s heart beat rapidly.
He suddenly lifted his injured arm to rub the corner of his eyes. ‘Sister Jinyi actually took revenge for me, even my father has never done something like this for me before.’
He decided that he must defend Yan Jinyi in the future!
“Did Sister Jinyi get hurt?”
“No, how can she possibly get hurt? She’s alive and well!”
