C72 (1/2)

Zhao Yelin suddenly became depressed. The future that Huo Yelin was going to face was not something that she could help with.

Huo Yelin noticed the change in her expression, ”What's wrong?” Are you angry? ”

”No, I just feel like I'm very useless and I can't help you with anything. What you said on the plane was right. Men should look for women who are intelligent and helpful to their careers. ”

Huo Yelin acknowledged, ”You're still lacking in this area.”

Zhao Yilin lowered her head in shock.

Huo Yelin looked at her with a smile in his eyes, deliberately adding fuel to the fire. ”I invested 100 million into Lilith. She helped me earn 500 million. She can be considered quite a smart woman.”

Zhao Yilin's heart sank. She felt that her soul had fallen to the bottom of the valley and was about to fall to her death.

Lilith was simply a nightmare to her. Every time Huo Yelin lifted her hand, whether intentionally or not, he would stab her in the chest.

Huo Yelin couldn't bear to tease her anymore and wanted to console her.

Zhao Yilin suddenly raised her head and stared at him with teary eyes, saying, ”So what!?” ”Don't tell me that in your eyes, the money she earns is worth more than the money I give you?”

Huo Yelin felt a chill in his heart, ”No, that's not what I meant.”

”What does that mean!” Zhao Yilin clenched her fists and said harshly, ”I am what I am, even if I am not smart enough or beautiful enough!” You are not allowed to compare me to others! ”If you think she's good, you can …”

Huo Yelin pulled her into his embrace, using his lips to block the words that she wanted to say. At the same time, he gently caressed her as if he was trying to curry favor with her, as if he was admitting his wrongs.

Zhao Yilin was so angry that she felt wronged and wronged. She pounded on his shoulder and chest. Huo Yelin did not stop her and allowed her to beat him up.

”Eli, I was wrong.”

He apologized carefully, afraid that she would not forgive him.

Zhao Yilin glared at him, not intending to forgive him at all.

”I'm sorry, forgive me.”

Zhao Yelin did not look at him. Instead, she turned her head to look out the window. Huo Yelin gently turned her face away, then turned away. For a long time, the two were in a stalemate.

It was the first time that Huo Yelin had seen her look so angry. Instead, he felt an itch in his heart.

”Eli, tell me, how can I apologize to you?”

Zhao Yilin sneered and came up with a good idea.

That night, the servants in the Huo family mansion were exceptionally careful when they went in and out of the house. Their footsteps were as light as a cat's pace, afraid that Huo Yelin, who was kneeling in the living room, would notice their presence.

Huo Yelin was kneeling on the washboard with a serious look on his face. Zhao Yelin was sitting on the sofa, eating blueberries one after another. Soon, the pot was half full.

Huo Yelin said, ”If you eat less, you'll get diarrhea.”

Zhao Yilin glared at him. ”Leave me alone!”

Although Huo Yelin was being punished, his back was very straight. He looked like an ancient soldier who was enduring humiliation.

He said very naturally, ”Although I've been punished, but as your boyfriend, I still have the right to control you.”

Zhao Yilin was no longer angry. She wanted to find an opportunity to teach him a lesson after he got used to all the shouting. ”Then I'll strip you of your political rights.”

”Impossible!” Huo Yelin said very seriously, ”The position and power of my family's head is something that I bring back after I die. No one has the right to take it away from me.”

His words were sonorous and forceful. In fact, Zhao Yilin's heart was filled with admiration for his daughter.

”Then here you are, don't you think I have any rights as a wife?”

Huo Yelin said, ”Of course there is. The right to punish, the right to squander and the right to act coquettishly.”

The grievance in Zhao Yilin's heart disappeared as soon as she heard that. She glanced at the wooden washboard. The sawteeth on it looked sharp, and it must have hurt her knees.

”Forget it, get up. My lord is magnanimous. I'll let you off this time, if there's a next time!”

Huo Yelin answered, ”There definitely won't be a next time.”

Zhao Yilin nodded in satisfaction and went to help him.

Although he looked calm and composed, as if nothing serious had happened, when he stood up, his body was stretched taut. He must be in great pain.

Zhao Yilin was blaming herself for punishing him in such a way. What would happen if his muscles and bones were injured?

Huo Yelin sat on the sofa.

Zhao Yilin asked the servant to bring the medicine box over and carefully apply the medicine.

Huo Yelin rested one of his legs on the tea table, leaning against the sofa and watching the television in satisfaction. Zhao Yelin, on the other hand, had been focused on applying the medicine.

The servants in the room looked at the two of them strangely, wondering why they had turned the tables.

When the medicine was done, Zhao Yilin put the box away and sat down obediently on his shoulder.

Huo Yelin said, ”I forgot to remind you in the company today.”

Zhao Yilin raised her head and looked at him.
