C16 He Wanted Fourth Huo to Leave

Zeyang, who had been quiet on the side, suddenly asked Xinyan, "What happened to your face?"

"My face?" Xinyan touched the spot where Zeyang's gaze had landed. With a nonchalant shrug, she replied, "Oh, just a little gift from Hongyuan and Hu Fanqin. It's no big deal!"

"You make a living with that face, and you say it's no big deal? Remember to put some ointment on it when you get home," Zeyang advised. "So, what’s your plan now?"

"My plan?" Xinyan placed her phone back beside Siye, her big eyes darting around playfully. With a mischievous grin, she said, "I haven't figured it out yet, but I'll let you know when I do!"

Both Zeyang and Siye were her loyal allies on her path to revenge. However, sometimes she preferred to keep her plans to herself to avoid their constant nagging.

Zeyang noticed Xinyan's eyes twinkling with mischief and knew she had already devised her next move. He didn't press further.

After a bit more chatting, Xinyan stood up to bid farewell to the two gentlemen and left the Golden Moon Bay Hotel.

"What do you think she'll do?" Siye asked, glancing at the door before lazily reclining on the sofa, a warm smile playing on his lips.

The smile was pure, warm, and gentle, almost outshining all the world's beautiful things.

Zeyang glanced at Siye with a cold smirk. Others might not understand him, but Zeyang did. Siye was the quintessential "smiling tiger"—the happier he appeared, the harsher his actions.

However, when it came to Xinyan, Siye was always more attentive and cautious than anyone else. Take the recent recording incident; even Zeyang was unaware of it.

Following Siye's gaze, Zeyang remarked, "If nothing unexpected happens, she'll go to Lin's!"

Zeyang's prediction was spot on. The next day, Xinyan stood before Lin's corporate building, glanced at the gilded letters, and confidently stepped into the lobby.

She now had leverage on Lin Yuerong and Hongyuan, making it easy to persuade Lin Huaizhong to pull his investment from Hongyuan's company.

Indeed, her first move was to drive Hongyuan's company into bankruptcy.

Though Hongyuan was a descendant of the Huo family and held shares in Huo's, his ambition led him to secretly acquire stock from minor shareholders, aiming to establish a separate company in the jewelry industry.

Recently, he and Lin's had jointly acquired a large domestic jewelry company and were preparing an operational plan.

But Xinyan had no intention of letting him succeed. She planned to use her leverage to convince Lin Huaizhong to withdraw his investment, leaving Hongyuan with no way out.

Fourth Huo spent most of his life scheming for money and personal gain. Three years ago, to get his hands on Huo Yinyao's shares and the position as head of the Huo family, he even kidnapped her, using her as a hostage. Since he loved money so much, she decided to leave him penniless, begging on the streets. The thought of Huo Hongyuan possibly starving on the streets filled Bai Xinyan with glee.

"Jiang Xiner? Isn't she that minor celebrity?"

"What's so surprising about that? She's been visiting Lin's a lot lately!"

"Yeah, yeah, that's right. She's been around often. Once, she even spent the whole night in Mr. Lin's office. Who knows what happened?"

"Hey, I heard she crashed Miss Lin and the Huo's CEO's engagement party yesterday. Can you believe how shameless she is?"
