Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant novel Chapter 421

Chapter 421: Chapter 421: Did You Come Back Just to Annoy Me?

Fang Minjuan felt somewhat exasperated. "But if he doesn’t like you, what can we do? Besides, he’s transferred to a local post now to protect the Huo Family. Even if he were willing to marry you, we wouldn’t want you to follow him and suffer."

Pan Huixin leaned on her mother’s shoulder. "Mom, I still don’t understand. He was promoted not long ago, and then suddenly he transferred. Why would he leave Beijing to go to such a small place?"

Fang Minjuan had heard her husband mention this before. Some people were targeting the Huo Family, so Huo Jingrui had given up a promising future and transferred to a local position to protect the other members of the Huo Family.

Of course, this was a story deliberately leaked by the Huo Family.

However, it was true that some people had their sights set on the Huo Family. That was how they managed to fool everyone into believing that Jingrui had been forced to compromise to protect the careers of the other family members.

Many people in the compound felt sorry for Jingrui.

Fang Minjuan patted her daughter. "Those people never wanted the Huo Family to become too powerful; naturally, they wouldn’t let Jingrui stay in Beijing."

Pan Huixin, thinking of what Jingrui had said, asked, "Mom, I heard that Jingrui’s fiancée is an orphan. What do you think the Huo Family members would think if they knew about this?"

Fang Minjuan immediately understood her daughter’s idea. "Alright, leave this to me."

Pan Huixin knew her mother was always smart; she would certainly understand what she meant. If I can’t have him, then no one else gets to be happy either.

It didn’t take half a day for the news to spread throughout the compound: the Huo Family’s fourth son, having supposedly given up on himself, had found a country girl who was also an orphan.

When Jiang Jingya found out, she was so angry she almost flipped the table. "If I find out who’s spreading these rumors, mark my words, I’ll go to their door and give them such a scolding they’ll wish they’d never been born! This is infuriating."
