Chapter 113: Chapter 113: Huo Yanting Has a Fiancée

She hadn’t told anyone that the land deed was hidden in the pear garden—not even Aunt Lan might know.

She didn’t dare carry it with her, afraid someone might snatch it away.

Lunch was at the pear garden. Aunt Lan prepared the meal, and the two of them, mistress and servant, enjoyed it together.

"Aunt Lan, I’ve found a job. I might come here less often in the future. Please take good care of the garden, and I’ll give you a raise," Lin Banxia said, entrusting Aunt Lan with the garden’s care. Previously, when she had been idle, she would join in cleaning and repairs here.

"Miss, you’re too kind. This place is like half a home to me. Of course, I’ll take good care of it."

Lin Banxia knew Aunt Lan had a good heart, but she insisted, "Don’t refuse, now. You and the pear garden are the most important things to me right now. I promised I would honor you."

"Miss, you’ve grown up, but the old master and mistress didn’t get to see you..." Aunt Lan couldn’t help but feel a wave of sadness.

Lin Banxia’s eyes filled with tears, and she silently vowed in her heart: if she could keep the pear garden safe, that would be the greatest honor she could give her grandparents.

In the afternoon, Lin Banxia went to the Huo Family Empire Group headquarters.

The last time she visited, she borrowed a billion from Huo Yanting. This time, she was looking for a job—and might need to borrow another million.

Lin Banxia felt uneasy, thinking to herself how much of a spender she had become.

Huo Yanting had just gifted her a luxury car worth tens of millions that very morning, and here she was, shamelessly asking for more money.

Lin Banxia bit her lip, feeling like she couldn’t bring herself to ask.

But her mother’s chest didn’t just contain photographs—it also had some gold and silver jewelry. She had to get it back.

It was Qi Han who came downstairs to escort her up. This time, Qi Han’s attitude toward her was far more respectful.

"Miss Lin, I never thought you’d be the young master’s first woman..." Qi Han said, his face full of disbelief.

When Lin Banxia heard "first," her pale little face instantly flushed red.

Qi Han realized he had misspoken and awkwardly chuckled twice. "Sorry, I was just surprised. Don’t take it the wrong way."

"It’s fine!" Lin Banxia flicked her long hair and turned her face toward the glass window outside.

When she entered Huo Yanting’s office, he was in a meeting. Qi Han asked her to wait inside, so she obediently stayed put.

An assistant brought her a drink. Lin Banxia unscrewed the cap and was just about to take a sip when the office door suddenly swung open.

Outside the door, the assistant’s helpless voice sounded: "Miss Tingting, President Huo isn’t here..."

Lin Banxia froze mid-drink, her beautiful eyes darting sharply toward the door.

Standing at the doorway was a girl dressed in a beige long dress, who exuded elegance and nobility, her face full of pride.

Upon seeing another woman in the office, her beautiful expression instantly darkened. She turned angrily toward the panicked assistant and demanded, "She can go in—why can’t I? Don’t you know who I am? You dare to stop me? You’ve got some nerve!"

The assistant was paralyzed with fear, unable to say another word.

Lin Banxia looked at the seething woman and felt a bit awkward.

But with just a hurried glance, she already noticed that the woman was stunning. Tall, with an outstanding and striking presence, she was the kind of beauty that took one’s breath away.

This woman could freely enter Huo Yanting’s office. Who was she? And what was her relationship with Huo Yanting?

Several questions flashed through Lin Banxia’s mind.
