Madam Is A Sensational Figure In The City Chapter 931

In a state of extreme elation, Huo Zihang remained utterly unfazed by Yan Jinyi’s veiled threat. “Second Sister-in-law, I just so happened to come across Sangsang’s diary, and it turns out she’s been harboring feelings for me all this time! Do you happen to know when she became pregnant with Mumu? I’m absolutely overjoyed!”

“You’ve lost your mind.”

Yan Jinyi uttered a curse before decisively ending the call.

Huo Zihang, with a wide grin plastered across his face, continued to peruse the diary with an air of nonchalance.

“Huo…”

!!

Tan Sangsang, on the verge of selecting the next day's attire, opened the door only to find Huo Zihang engrossed in her diary while sitting cross-legged on the bed.

Her pupils contracted instantly, and she rushed towards him, attempting to snatch the diary away. “Huo Zihang, what’s gotten into you? Who gave you permission to read my diary?”

“How else would I discover the depth of your love for me?”

Huo Zihang abruptly seized Tan Sangsang, drawing her into a tight embrace.

“Let go! Are you insane?”

“I’m incredibly happy. Sangsang, why don’t we make it official and register our marriage? We can give Mumu a sibling too!”

Tan Sangsang struggled fiercely. “Go find someone else! I’m not interested. Don’t you have plenty of other women expecting your child, desperately seeking your acknowledgment?”

“They were all schemers. Second Sister-in-law can attest to my words. Sangsang, if we both harbor these feelings, why don’t we register our marriage tomorrow?”

Recalling the foolish entries she had penned in her diary, Tan Sangsang’s face flushed with embarrassment. “Let go! I was young and foolish back then.”

“Then how could you have given birth if you were so insensible?”

“It was an accident! Please, hurry and release me.”

Tan Sangsang remained steadfast in her refusal. Huo Zihang tightened his hold, nuzzling his face against her. “No, not until you tell me how Mumu came into our lives.”

Taking a deep, steadying breath, Tan Sangsang met his earnest gaze. “Very well, I’ll tell you once you let me go.”

Meanwhile, within the opulent Huo family mansion.

Yan Jinyi had already counted an absurd number of sheep, attempting to lull herself into slumber, yet sleep remained elusive.

‘Huo Zihang had better hope I don’t encounter him!’

Slipping on her shoes and grabbing her cardigan from the sofa, she draped it over her shoulders.

The clock had long passed midnight, a time when Huo Xishen was typically engrossed in his study.

In a rare display of consideration, Yan Jinyi personally prepared a glass of warm milk in the kitchen before carrying it to the study.

The door was slightly ajar, allowing a warm glow to spill from within. Faintly, she could discern the murmur of voices engaged in conversation.

Yan Jinyi cautiously drew nearer.

“Huo Xishen, what is it about my sister that you admire?”

It was Bai Moliang’s voice.

‘When did he even get here?’

“I simply admire her,” Huo Xishen replied curtly. His affection had nothing to do with her appearance or her family’s status; it was purely because she was Yan Jinyi.

“Mr. Huo, we live in an open society now, and I wish to compete with you.”

‘Eh, what is that ruffian doing here?’

“Mr. Huo, you’re overthinking things. It’s not going to happen.”

‘It’s midnight. Surely those three gentlemen aren’t playing a game right now.’

“Aren’t you already married? Why the need for a wedding ceremony?”

“Mr. Huo is merely troubled by his conscience. Bai Moliang, don’t give in. How incredibly embarrassing would it be to have a wedding ceremony twice?”

Huo Xishen chose to disregard Tang Qing’s interjection. “Mr. Bai, wouldn’t you like to experience the joy of walking your sister down the aisle?”

Bai Moliang immediately conceded. “Let’s hold a wedding. Jinyi is the most cherished daughter of our family. We must compensate for the fact that she has stooped to marry you. She deserves the most spectacular wedding the world has ever seen!”

“…”

‘Is Doggy Huo going to marry me all over again?’

‘Does that even count as a remarriage?’

She quietly finished her milk before turning to depart.

‘Fine, I haven’t had the chance to be a bride before. It would be wonderful to experience it.’
