Billionaire's Adorable Sweet Wife-Chapter 962: Yin Zhao, Trust Me!

Yin Mingzhu was shocked.

She couldn’t believe Old Master Huo would treat her this way, condemning her without even discerning right from wrong.

She was filled with regret.

She should not have been greedy for these riches, otherwise she would not have been caught.

Old Master Huo had always treated women as playthings, ruthlessly. He ordered people to throw Yin Mingzhu into the pantry and lock her up, and then instructed Chen Xishan to store away the money and jewels.

Chen Xishan gave a slight smile, "Yes, Old Master."

Having dealt with the matter, Old Master Huo ignored Yin Mingzhu’s screams and pleas as he embraced his new lover and indulged in pleasure.

Chen Xishan approached Yin Mingzhu.

Yin Mingzhu spat at her, "Vicious woman."

Chen Xishan lightly wiped it away with a handkerchief, smiling serenely, "Concubine, do you understand now? In this household, whatever I say is black is black, and what I say is white is white."

Lu’er said proudly, "Serves you right for going against the young madam! Don’t think the young madam doesn’t know you helped the second young master."

Yin Mingzhu glared at them.

Chen Xishan instructed Lu’er, "Take her money to my room... as for this concubine, keep her locked up for two days, then find a chance to sell her off! Make sure to find an ugly man!"

Lu’er was worried Old Master Huo would not agree.

Chen Xishan gave a cold smile, "Didn’t you see? The Old Master has already brought a new woman back."

Lu’er laughed sinisterly as she called for people to lock up Yin Mingzhu...

Eight in the morning.

Yin Zhao could not wait for Yin Mingzhu.

He went to Huo Mansion to inquire but the servants were tight-lipped, saying the new concubine had gone on a trip.

Their words were cunning, and Yin Zhao had no means to object.

He tried everything but could not reach Yin Mingzhu.

In the end, he could only seek out Su Ruanruan for advice.

Su Ruanruan met him in the lounge downstairs, listened to Yin Zhao’s words, and frowned slightly, "We must find her quickly, otherwise things might change."

Yin Zhao had no base in Yangcheng and was relying on Su Ruanruan.

Su Ruanruan spoke gently, "Don’t worry, I have some connections in the Huo family."

Then she dialed the grand young madam of the Huo family.

The gentle grand young madam of the Huo family didn’t answer; her maid did, saying upfront that the grand young madam had a headache and was bedridden.

Such subtle rejection, how could Su Ruanruan not understand?

When she hung up, she was thoughtful.

Yin Zhao was somewhat anxious, pouring her tea, "Ruanruan, how is it?"

Su Ruanruan reassured him, "I have another way!"

Just then, Qin Chao spoke, "Miss Su, why not contact Miss Yan? If she speaks, Huo Shaoting will surely help."

Su Ruanruan shook her head.

She said softly, "Sister Yan has already helped us so much! She’s finally living well; unless necessary, let’s not trouble her..."

She thought for a moment, then, her eyes sparkling with wisdom.

She told Yin Zhao, "I have an idea!"

Yin Zhao trembled slightly.

Su Ruanruan said, "Just now, when I called the grand young madam, she refused... so this matter must be related to Chen Xishan. She doesn’t want to openly offend Chen Xishan."

She spoke while pondering, "If I were to ask Huo Shaoting for help, then I must offer him a considerable benefit."

Su Ruanruan lowered her eyes and smiled gently.

She said, "The Huo Family Bank has always been controlled by Chen Xishan. If we can help Huo Shaoting take it back, it’s both a favor to him and a blow to Chen Xishan!"

Yin Zhao’s heart was stirred.

He was unlike others who were accustomed to seeing Su Ruanruan’s strategic demeanor; it was his first time witnessing her charm.

He grew more enamored in his heart.

Having made up her mind, Su Ruanruan said to Qin Chao, "Call Huo Shaoting for me, say I’d like to invite him for tea!"

Qin Chao immediately went to do it.

A minute later, Qin Chao returned with news, "Second Young Master Huo invites Miss Su to lunch. It’s said Miss Yan will also be there."

Su Ruanruan smiled, "You all think of a way to keep Sister Yan busy so she’s not free at noon."

Qin Chao nodded, "Don’t worry Miss Su, I’m good at this!"

Qin Chao left.

Su Ruanruan told Yin Zhao, "You just wait; I’ll bring Mingzhu back at the latest in two days! Yin Zhao, trust me!"

Seeing her charm, Yin Zhao was impressed.

He couldn’t help but say, "I trust you!"
