So what if she's a fake heiress? She's being pampered by a powerful figure in Beijing'

After she got into the car, her assistant immediately handed her a thick stack of documents:

"Mr. Xie, this is all the information about that orphanage and the transaction records between the Huo family elders and them."

"The dean has been detained by our people and is awaiting your decision."

Xie Junfei nodded, took the document, and carefully reviewed it, giving instructions as he read:

“Keep a close eye on her. Threaten her with her son and grandson who have already fled abroad. If she dares to run away, chop up her grandson and feed him to the dogs.”

"Before those old fogies from the Huo family find out, quickly send them to Shanxi, and I'll deal with them when I get there."

The assistant nodded, then, as if remembering something, whispered:

"And President Xie, the Huo family elder must have powerful backers, especially in Beijing..."

Upon hearing this, Xie Junfei scoffed and said sarcastically:

"These days, who doesn't have someone to rely on?"

"A mere elder who wants to follow the path of collusion between officials and merchants in ancient times? He's too naive."

After she finished speaking, she looked up and asked:

Where is my older brother now?

The assistant replied:

"You're still on the plane, but we've basically confirmed your location."

Xie Junfei nodded and continued browsing the documents.

She knew her older brother was genuinely worried about her.

The Huo family is currently embroiled in internal strife. Although she and Huo Shen are not yet engaged, anyone who is willing to investigate can easily uncover their intimate relationship.

She was Huo Shen's only weakness besides his family, and on the surface, she was indeed a powerless and weak "easy target" who hadn't even grown up yet.

We'll tie her up and use her to threaten Huo Shen; it'll be a sure thing.

She was well aware that ever since she ran away and Holland left her, the elders of the Holland family had begun to send people to harm her.

However, they underestimated Xie Junfei, so all the men they sent were detained by her subordinates.

She came to Northeast China for two reasons.

On the surface, she is a spoiled young lady who is oblivious to the current situation. At this critical moment, she is still thinking about sending a child actor to act. She is even blinded by love and goes to the old house to find Huo Shen without the protection of her family. She never thought that she would be kidnapped and used to threaten Huo Shen.

Behind the scenes, she was the biggest "intelligence chief" in the capital, and had even found the Huo family elders' dirt on them before Huo Shen did.

After arranging things in the capital, she used the pretext of sending Lu Wanzhou to a movie performance to personally come to the Northeast to arrest people and gather evidence. Once she had all the evidence, she went straight to the Huo family's old mansion and started a fight with the elders.

After flipping through the documents, Xie Junfei let out a soft breath.

The assistant found very comprehensive evidence.

If we're really serious, these things could keep those elders busy sewing machines and making umbrellas until they're buried.

Thinking of this, she looked up at her assistant:

"Have you booked your plane ticket? When can I arrive at the Huo family's house?"

The assistant glanced down at the time:

"Before 9 PM tonight."

"A car is ready at the airport. You can get there as soon as you get off the car."

Upon hearing this, Xie Junfei nodded in satisfaction.

The phone beside me lit up; it was a message from Zhu Wensheng:

"Don't worry, sister. Everything is fine in the capital. Don't worry."

Upon seeing this news, Xie Junfei was completely relieved.

She smiled and picked up her phone to reply to Zhu Wensheng:

"Thank you very much, Brother Zhu. I'll treat you to a meal when we get back to the capital."

Zhu Wensheng's message came back quickly:

"Let's skip the meal; we're all family."

"Just be careful on your end. Your older brother is worried sick. If anything happens to you, we're all doomed."

"The old house is their stronghold; even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake."

“I have already contacted the Zhu family in the area, and they are waiting at the airport to pick you up.”

The Zhu family was a powerful and influential family in the capital, and in some areas, they were even more powerful than the Huo family.

Aunt Zhu's brother holds a truly "high position and great power" in Beijing.

Especially with the help of the Zhu family in recent years, he has risen step by step.

The message Zhu Wensheng sent her was telling her that he had already established relations with the local forces.

With the Zhu family's protection, even the Huo family elders, who were backers, dared not easily touch Xie Junfei.

Xie Junfei was deeply moved and immediately thanked Zhu Wensheng.

Zhu Wensheng, however, still had the mind to joke:

"We're all family, no need for thanks. Lily, I haven't seen you in so long, I miss you terribly."

"When you return to the capital this time, remember to visit Lily at the Zhu family home for a few days."

She smiled and accepted Zhu Wensheng's invitation, then selectively ignored Huo Shen's message asking her to go home, and opened a match-3 game to start playing.

The plane landed at 8 p.m.

Accompanied by the Zhu family, Xie Junfei boarded a van heading to the old house.

The luxury car sped along the highway, and the assistant was still somewhat uneasy, constantly looking behind the car to see if anyone was following them.

Xie Junfei herself has already started talking with the people sent by the Zhu family.

The young man, wearing frameless glasses and with a refined, scholarly appearance, smiled at her.

"Miss Xie, please rest assured."

"The Zhu family will ensure your safety."

Xie Junfei smiled and nodded, then opened her phone and condescended to send Huo Shen a message:

"I'll be at your doorstep soon, remember to call someone to pick me up."

Huo Shen immediately sent a question mark:

Didn't I tell you to stay home and wait for me to come back?

Why don't you listen to me?

Xie Junfei ridiculed him mercilessly:

"On Jasmine South Street, I told you not to kiss or bite me, did you listen?"

"Enough with the nonsense. I'm already here, so hurry up and come out to greet me."

Inside the Huo family's main residence, Huo Shen, who was confronting the elder, frowned and rubbed his temples, a rare occurrence for him, as he had a terrible headache.

In front of the elders, he stood up expressionlessly, and just as he was about to turn and leave, an elder stopped him:

"Did your elders tell you to leave before you got up? Have you forgotten all the basic manners and values ​​you learned in elementary school?"

"Or was it that lowly, illegitimate prostitute from your humble background who corrupted you?!"

The man turned his head as soon as he finished speaking, his eyes sharp:

"If you dare to insult my fiancée again, don't blame me for fighting you to the death."

"Anyway, even if I lose, my mother will cover for me."

"If you lose, you're completely finished."

After saying that, he ignored the angry curses of the elders behind him and strode out of the house.

The Huo family has a long history and strict family rules.

Before going to pick up the person, Huo Shen made a point of informing the butler and having the servants prepare the side room in his courtyard.

Now that he was the head of the Huo family, the butler naturally agreed immediately.

At the main gate of the Huo family residence, a business vehicle slowly came to a stop.

It's snowing heavily in Shanxi.

The old house was buried by wind and snow, and even the candlelight in the lanterns hanging at the door was swaying precariously in the wind.

The main gate of the Huo family was wide open, and Huo Shen, dressed in a black overcoat, was waiting inside with an umbrella.

Snow fell on the umbrella, on his shoulders, and in his hair.

In this silent, dignified, and ancient old house.

The man remained silent, like a statue, as if trying to blend into this cannibalistic place.

Xie Junfei got out of the car and looked at her beloved, whom she had been longing for day and night, from afar.

Immediately afterwards, disregarding etiquette, the girl threw herself into Huo Shen's arms amidst the butler's exclamations.

From then on, the ice and snow melted, and spring returned to the world.
