The Huo family didn’t expect that after Shen Yin took Song Tan away, he would come back by himself.

He appeared calm and walked straight in, finding a seat for himself.

The Huo family members exchanged puzzled glances.

Has Shen Yin become too arrogant now?

They hadn’t paid much attention to Shen Yin before.

In the Huo family, he seemed like an invisible person, to the extent that now, upon reflection, they realized they didn’t really know Shen Yin.

Those who are close in age to Shen Yin might pay a bit more attention to him.

Shen Yin is a genius, his studies is one of the best among them.

His outstanding performance naturally caught the attention of many.

Although he doesn’t bear the surname Huo, his mother held shares in the Huo’s company, which were all transferred to him after her passing.

If he had any intentions towards the Huo’s company…

However, they later discovered that Shen Yin, just like his father, was simply a person who enjoyed scholarly pursuits.

Like the business courses conducted by the Huo family, he performed mediocrely and lacked enthusiasm.

Later on, they gradually let go of their guard against him.

After all, an academic genius who only knows how to study poses a lesser threat to them compared to a business prodigy.

Afterward, Shen Yin obtained his Ph.D. and, upon graduation, the old man originally intended to have him join the company and lead a research team. However, Shen Yin chose to stay at the university as a teacher.

By not joining the Huo’s company, he simply ceased to be a threat.

If it weren’t for this incident, that Song Tan chose him, they would have almost forgotten that there was still such a person in the Huo family.

People whispered among themselves in private, but considering the prescription in Song Tan’s hands, if it truly saved the old man, then Song Tan would be a great contributor… So, nobody wanted to stand out at this moment.

Without someone making a fuss, Shen Yin was able to enjoy peace and quiet.

He raised his hand and adjusted his glasses.

These bunch of useless people from the Huo family.

Shen Yin didn’t pay any attention to them at all.

They are only concerned about their own interests, but very few of them have any intelligence.

On the other hand…

At this moment, a commotion could be heard from outside.

It was Huo Yanlin returning.

As soon as Huo Yanlin entered, everyone turned their gaze towards him.

Huo Yanlin’s eyes fell upon the isolated Shen Yin.

His gaze darkened.

The failure of Project An No. 1 had a direct impact on other projects’ research.

Currently, the most effective solution was to borrow the team and technology from the Song family to resolve this crisis.

The Song family’s business was not doing well, but their core technology was considered relatively advanced in the industry.

After the complete failure of Project An No. 1, he attempted to contact Song Zhiwen.

However, Song Zhiwen’s conditions were…

These people from the Song family truly had unrealistic ideas.

Huo Yanlin did not agree.

After returning from the Huo family, the face of Song Tan kept appearing in Huo Yanlin’s mind involuntarily.

If he had married Song Tan, and the company encountered this crisis, would she…

This idea was indeed somewhat absurd, but it strangely felt like something that had actually happened.

To the extent that when he saw Shen Yin now, what appeared in his mind was Song Tan standing beside him, speaking up to help him.

He collected himself, ignoring everyone, and went straight past that door to find the old man.

“We’re not allowed in, but he just went in directly.”

“Can you compare to him? That’s Huo Yanlin.”

Huo Yanlin.

Although no one said it aloud, they all knew it in their hearts. If things went as expected, Huo Yanlin would become the next leader of the Huo family’.

All of them would have to make a living under his control in the future.

Therefore, even though nothing had been finalized yet, they couldn’t offend this future leader.

Shen Yin looked at them, their unwillingness to offend and their resentful expressions, and it was truly ironic.

Under their incredulous gazes, Shen Yin also stepped past that door.

Huo family members : ???

When Shen Yin entered, Huo Yanlin looked at him with a slightly furrowed brow.

“Young Master Shen Yin, Doctor Chen has examined the prescription, and it is indeed suitable for the illness. They are currently decocting the medicine.”

Uncle Liu saw Shen Yin come in and his attitude improved quite a bit. He took the initiative to update him on the progress.

Shen Yin nodded and said, “As long as Grandfather is fine.”

Upon hearing this, Huo Yanlin looked at Shen Yin.

“Why is it only you here? Where is Song Tan?”

Upon hearing Huo Yanlin’s question, Shen Yin narrowed his eyes.

“You should address her as Biao Sao.”

Huo Yanlin furrowed his brows.

He didn’t want to.

That woman played him, and now she wants him to call her Biao Sao?

“Fine, Biao Sao. I’d like to ask, with Grandpa being seriously ill, where is she?”

Huo Yanlin’s use of the term Biao Sao could be described as through gritted teeth.

Shen Yin looked at him like this, not only was he not angry, but he also smiled.

“She came to see Grandpa. Grandpa is seriously ill, and she is also very worried. It’s just that her health is not good, so I sent her back.”

Huo Yanlin listened to his words and snorted.

Don’t think that he is outside and doesn’t know what happened at home.

Shen Yin is truly hypocritical.

Why didn’t Huo Yanlin notice his hypocrisy before?

Huo Yanlin wanted to say something more, but at this moment, the doctor who was treating the old master brought the medicine over.

At present, the most important thing is naturally the old man’s illness.

The medicine was administered to Old Master Huo, and now it’s a matter of waiting for the medicine to take effect and see the results.

“If this prescription from Biao Sao is really so effective, it should have been brought out earlier, and Grandpa wouldn’t have suffered so much.”

This remark is in line with the style of the Huo family.

Domineering and self-centered.

“The prescription is her private property. She can bring it out, and you should be grateful to her. Why are you still complaining that she brought it out late?”

Although everyone knows what the Huo and Song families had their own schemes with the marriage alliance, the Huo family still has face to maintain.

They are not straightforward about what they are after, the prescription in Song Tan’s hands. Moreover, it’s not just this one prescription, but all the prescriptions left behind by Old Master Song.

What Huo Yanlin said now is truly shameless. It’s incredible that he can say such things.

“Biao Ge has become quite eloquent after getting married.”

Huo Yanlin didn’t pay much attention to Shen Yin before. It was only when Song Tan chose Shen Yin during the selection process that he couldn’t help but pay more attention to Shen Yin.

The current Shen Yin is different from what he knew before.

Has Shen Yin started revealing his ambition?

“What I’m doing is not being eloquent. It’s about protecting my other half.”

Of course, Shen Yin’s original plan wasn’t like this.

But Song Tan’s performance today forced him to change his plan.

“Now, Song Tan is my wife. I hope you will show some respect to my wife, your Biao Sao, in the future.”

Song Tan has no idea that Shen Yin is standing up for her like this.

It was rare for her to have someone comment on her book, which has encouraged her and made her look at other novels.

And then she discovered that in other people’s novels, there really were male protagonists who were zombies.

From being shocked to disgusted, and then… she found it somewhat intriguing.

It seemed that it wasn’t so hard to accept after all.

But… Song Tan couldn’t write romantic scenes.

Perhaps…

Song Tan blinked.

Although she had no experience with emotions right now, she had a husband.

At this moment, her husband, Shen Yin, was waiting until Old Master Huo woke up.

Shen Yin lowered his gaze, concealing the resentment in his eyes.

“Grandpa.”

Huo Yanlin called out to the old man and then glanced at Shen Yin.

What Huo Yanlin was about to say involved the company’s secrets.

Therefore, his gaze was a signal for Shen Yin to step aside.

Shen Yin smiled at him in response.

In that smile, there was a hint of provocation.

Huo Yanlin furrowed his brow.

Without waiting for Huo Yanlin to say anything, Shen Yin directly spoke to the old man, “Grandfather, it’s good to see you awake. Please take care and rest. Shen Yin will come to see you again tomorrow.”

This time, Old Master Huo had a close call with death, and he was still very grateful for Song Tan’s prescription.

“Alright, you should go back and spend more time with Song Tan. Today is your wedding night, you should spend more time with her in the room.”

As soon as the old man spoke, Huo Yanlin’s eyebrows furrowed tightly, sensing a feeling of crisis.

He had an undeniable responsibility for the failure of Project An No. 1.

If he couldn’t find a way to save the other projects, the Huo’s company, which was about to be given to him, would have to be handed over to someone else.

He would never allow that.

But… would he use his own marriage as a bargaining chip?

Huo Yanlin would use his own marriage as a bargaining chip.

Shen Yin knew this cousin of his too well.

He only needed to stimulate Huo Yanlin a little, and Huo Yanlin would choose the path he had already arranged.

Huo Yanlin would make his choice.

Choose to join forces with the Song family.

In due time…

Shen Yin thought of Song Tan.

His eyebrows slightly furrowed, then relaxed.

Whether Song Tan married him with ulterior motives or…

Regardless, she had already married him.

This is something that cannot be easily changed.
