Chapter 1837 - 1837 The Catch

1837 The Catch

Huo Wanying squeezed her wrists without answering Meryl.

After some time, she took out her phone and swiped down to Huo Yulins phone number.

Before long, the call got through.

Huo Wanying wasted no time. Are you free to meet right now?

Huo Yulin was still driving. He did not know why Huo Wanying would suddenly want to meet him. He paused briefly and then agreed.

Huo Wanying looked outside the French windows casually. Okay. Where are you?

He said, I am going back to the Huo estate.

See you in 30 minutes then. Saying this, she hung up the phone.

Meryl was still there. When she heard what her daughter said, she could not help asking. Who are you meeting?

Brother Yulin. Huo Wanying replied candidly.

Meryl never liked Huo Yulin. Why are you going to see him?

To talk. Huo Wanying placed her phone in her pocket and stood up. Mom, arent you heading out?

Yes, I am. You looked like you had something on your mind. Meryl smiled.

Huo Wanying shook her head. Nope. Just go and do your thing. Im going upstairs.

Huo Wanying quickly went upstairs. Meryl frowned as she watched from behind.

They were in the middle of the test and it was a critical time. Did something go wrong?

Meryl paused briefly, took out the phone, and texted Huo Qing. After she was done, she finally went out.

30 minutes later, Huo Wanying arrived at the main building in the Huo estate.

Huo Yulin had just gotten home a few minutes ago. Why did you want to see me?

Huo Yulin leaned against the couch, looked up, and said, You?

Huo Wanying nodded. Uh huh. Councilor Ding is in charge of the project and he talked to me about it. If I help, your little sister has a higher chance of succeeding with the a.s.signment. Its not entirely about succeeding in signing the contract. Im sure you know the situation in Sangry Town, so I dont need to explain.

The union a.s.signment was secondary if she had trouble returning in one piece.

Huo Yulin looked at Huo Wanying. After some time, he asked. Whats the catch?

A smile appeared on Huo Wanyings face. Of course, theres a condition. Its really down to you.

If Im not mistaken, you want me to drop out of the race to be the heir. From the moment Huo Wanying brought up the Sangry Town a.s.signment, Huo Yulin had a feeling.

Huo Yao might have performed brilliantly yesterday, but she lacked experience. Even if she was able to complete the Sangry Town a.s.signment, during the voting, the elders would still eliminate her eventually.

In reality, he was Huo Wanyings strongest opponent.

After all, in everyones eyes, he was raised and groomed to be the next heir.

You can say so. Huo Wanying continued smiling, but it was becoming increasingly ambiguous.

Huo Wanying came with a manila envelope. She placed it on the table and said, I have listed all my conditions in the doc.u.ment.

Huo Yulin narrowed his eyes. He slowly reached his hand out to take the manila envelope to open it. Before he opened it, Huo Wanyings voice could be heard once more.

Out of trust, I can help your little sister first. As for the doc.u.ment, its not too late for you to read it after Im done, Huo Wanying spoke mildly.

Huo Yulins hands trembled, holding the manila envelope. He was rather surprised by Huo Wanyings words. At this moment, he genuinely did not know what she wanted.

The sound of the door opening could be heard.

Huo Wanying narrowed her eyes, stood up, and glanced at the doc.u.ments. Thats all I have to say to you, so Ill be on my way.
