After Escaping Marriage, She Intrudes into the Dominance of the Tycoon

With an icy heart, Su Ningxi pushed the check across the table, feigning disgust at money.

"I'm terribly sorry, Madam, but Yuchen and I sincerely love each other. I won't leave him until he asks me to go," she stated, barely suppressing her urge to vomit at her own words.

Beside them, Ling Yin listened jealously to Su Ningxi, seething with rage. How dare this woman marry Yuchen! She didn't believe Yuchen could truly love someone like her - she was utterly unworthy of such an outstanding man.

Only a noble young lady like herself was a proper match for Yuchen. Considering her family background, beauty and talents, this woman didn't compare at all. She wasn't even fit to tie Ling Yin's shoes!

Seeing Su Ningxi refuse the money, the old woman's face darkened in anger at her ungratefulness.

"Drop the innocent act. I bet you've never seen this much money in your life! Taking the money and leaving is your best option. Otherwise, when Yuchen eventually abandons you, you'll get nothing."

Feigning realization, Su Ningxi replied, "You're right, that reminds me - I should take what I can before he dumps me."

The old woman was so furious she could barely breathe. Pointing at Su Ningxi, she yelled, "I knew you only wanted Yuchen for his money! I'll tell him to divorce you immediately."

Su Ningxi just shrugged, completely unfazed.

She thought to herself - if the old woman could actually convince Huo Yuchen to divorce her, she ought to thank her!

Just then, Ling Yin spoke up, "Grandma, don't get angry. Su probably didn't mean it like that, she just didn't express herself clearly...after all, she only graduated middle school."

She then acted apologetic, turning to Su Ningxi, "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to insult your education, I spoke rashly. Please don't take offense."

Her words further stoked the old woman's rage.

"Why are you apologizing to her? We can't even mention her low education now?"

Speaking of education made the old woman grit her teeth in hatred. No one in the Huo family had ever graduated just middle school - at worst, they had university degrees. This Su Ningxi was an utter disgrace to the family.

Ignoring the old woman's murderous glare, Su Ningxi wasn't angry at all. Casually popping a grape into her mouth, she said, "What's wrong with low education? I still managed to marry into a prominent family."

Fuming, the old woman retorted, "You're even proud of your lack of education? I won't allow you to enter the Huo family, no matter what tricks you used to seduce Yuchen."

She turned to Ling Yin, "Cynthia, call Yuchen and tell him to come back and throw this shameless woman out."

Feigning hesitation, Ling Yin replied, "Grandma, that seems too harsh - she is married to Brother Yuchen after all."

"Don't worry, I'm throwing her out today no matter what. You're the only woman worthy of Yuchen in my eyes."

Ling Yin's face fell, "Please don't say that Grandma, I only see him as a brother. Besides, he's already married, we can never be together."

The old woman looked at her intently, "Just tell Grandma - do you like him or not?"

Blushing, Ling Yin stammered, "I...I..."

Seeing her reaction, the old woman knew she harbored feelings for her grandson. "If you like him, say it boldly. Don't be afraid - as long as I'm alive, no woman except you will enter the Huo family."

Ling Yin looked as if she might cry from emotion, choking out, "Thank you for your regard Grandma, but I won't be a third party destroying Brother Yuchen's marriage."

The old woman's brows furrowed, "Who said you're a third party? I'll be the first to object if anyone speaks ill of you. Don't worry, leave the dirty work to me. Once I've thrown this woman out, I'll make Yuchen marry you."

"Ugh...ugh..."

Suddenly, Su Ningxi made retching noises as if she was about to vomit. She gagged twice.

The old woman and Ling Yin looked over in shock as Su Ningxi spat out the two grapes she had been chewing. Her brows knitted, she grumbled, "Disgusting."

The old woman's face darkened again at the uncouth country bumpkin.

Raising her head to meet their stares, Su Ningxi said sincerely, "Sorry to disturb your conversation. Please continue, don't mind me."

Seeing Su Ningxi's behavior, Ling Yin sneered inwardly. This woman was truly an embarrassment to Brother Yuchen. She believed it was only a matter of time before Su Ningxi got kicked out.

Noticing the old woman's ugly expression, Ling Yin wanted to cause more trouble. "Su, you're being extremely rude. Grandma is your elder, you should show her respect even if you don't like her."

"Who are you?" Su Ningxi only sensed a strong aura of jealousy and pettiness from this woman. She had heard the old woman calling her Cynthia, but didn't know her identity yet.

From their conversation, she could tell Cynthia had feelings for Huo Yuchen, but it was unclear if he returned them.

"I'm Ling Yin, young miss of the Ling family." Saying her status made Ling Yin swell with pride. As the precious daughter of the eminent Ling family, second only to the Huo family, her background was something a country bumpkin like Su Ningxi could never dream of attaining.

Ling Yin? The name sounded so familiar. Su Ningxi recalled Feng Xiao Xiao mentioning her fiancé's younger sister was also named Ling Yin. Judging by her catty behavior, she was likely the woman Feng Xiao Xiao had described.

"You like my husband?" Su Ningxi asked.

Ling Yin quickly clarified, seeming anxious to avoid any misunderstanding. "Don't get the wrong idea Su. I only see Brother Yuchen as a sibling."

Su Ningxi replied, "I figured a young miss like you would never covet another's husband. It seems Grandma has misunderstood you, Ling."

The old woman...

She stared sharply at Su Ningxi - this country bumpkin really had a glib tongue. Just as the old woman was about to curse her out, Huo Yuchen's voice rang out from the doorway. "Grandma, why are you here?"

Seeing Huo Yuchen, the old woman turned her verbal gun on him instead. "So you still recognize me as your grandma? Did you even consider that when secretly marrying this woman?"

Huo Yuchen calmly explained, "Please don't be angry Grandma. I didn't notify anyone about the marriage, we simply registered our license. Of course you'll be invited to our wedding banquet."

"You're still holding a wedding with her? I forbid it - I don't accept her as my granddaughter-in-law. Go divorce her immediately."

Before Huo Yuchen could respond, Su Ningxi rushed over to continue the act.
