Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 235 - Chapter 235 Chapter 235 No Need to Inform_1

Chapter 235: Chapter 235 No Need to Inform_1 Chapter 235: Chapter 235 No Need to Inform_1 When Huo Jinlan was first brought to the Huo family, she had already begun to develop some memories. She couldn’t remember the day-to-day stuff clearly, but she knew about some significant events. She could remember her biological parents, and she also remembered her birth mother’s ruthless pursuit of men.

In her memories, Jing Tong always had a particular knack for mesmerizing men. A young Jinlan admired and idolized it greatly. However, now, that admiration was nowhere to be found in Huo Jinlan’s heart anymore.

It was bearable when she was in her twenties, weak and pitiful.

Now in her forties, acting the same way was just irritating.

“Jinlan?” Jing Tong noticed Huo Jinlan’s gaze and looked back in confusion.

“Mom.” Huo Jinlan got off the bed, sat down next to Jing Tong, and nestled in close to her. “Mom, what are we going to do now? I’m scared. I don’t want to be trapped here.”

Jing Tong felt a wave of irritation rise inside her. She had been coddled by men all her life; now that she was suddenly expected to comfort someone else, she wasn’t comfortable. But even though she didn’t like it, she had to keep up appearances.

“It’s okay! Your father is very powerful, he will get us out.”

“But school is starting soon, I want to get out as soon as possible. I still need to go to school!” Huo Jinlan’s face showed fear as she began to sob, “What if my classmates find out that I have been arrested and brought into a police station? What do I do then?”

“When we take you back, we’ll have to change your school. Who would know in the new school? And we are the victims here; even if people find out, it doesn’t matter.”

“Mom, I want to continue studying at my current school. After I get admitted to a top university, then we can go back. At that time, I will also be able to make you proud.”

Huo Jinlan’s words were very tempting for Jing Tong.

Nowadays, not many people go to university. If their family could get a child admitted to a prestigious university, it would make them proud. Jing Tong always felt looked down upon by people who thought they were superior. If her daughter could get into a prestigious university, she would regain her dignity.

“You’re right! I will try to find a solution.”

Huo Jinlan breathed a sigh of relief, happily saying, “Thank you, mom.”

“You must work hard and make your mom proud. I will make you a princess in the future. You will be admired wherever you go.”

“Then mom, you have to be good to me.” Huo Jinlan cooed, “You can’t send me away again.”

“I had no choice back then!” Jing Tong held Huo Jinlan and cried softly, her voice sweet and emotional, “Why are we mother and daughter so pitiful! We’ve been separated for so many years. Now that we’ve finally met again, we’re put into a police station.”

He Rongxi heard Jing Tong’s words from across the room, instinctively wanting to comfort her. But as words reached his lips, he swallowed them back.

He couldn’t continue spoiling her.

“He Rongxi, come out.” A police officer came to take him out.

“Alright.”

Lawyer Chen was pacing anxiously in the visitors’ room until He Rongxi was brought out, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

“President He, are you alright? I heard that your wife and daughter have also been brought in? Do we need to inform the Leng family?” Lawyer Chen was not completely aware of the situation and thought that it was He Shasha who had been arrested!

As a granddaughter of the Leng family, they would not stand by if there were trouble. In this way, they would have additional help.

“No.” A hint of embarrassment flashed across He Rongxi’s face, “No need to notify them!”

“Alright.” Lawyer Chen pushed his glasses up on his nose and said in confusion, “President He, did you offend someone on this visit?”
