Chapter 151: The Hongmen Banquet
"Lin Banxia? I’m Mrs. Huo, Yan Ting’s grandmother. I want to invite you to have lunch with me this afternoon." The person straightforwardly stated her name, instantly frightening Lin Banxia, whose face turned pale.
"Hello, Grandma. Lunch this afternoon? Sure, I’ll let Yan Ting know soon..."
"No need to tell Yan Ting. I’m inviting you specifically. Come directly to the Emperor Hotel..." Mrs. Huo’s tone was assertive, and after finishing her sentence, she immediately hung up the phone.
Lin Banxia stared anxiously at her abruptly disconnected phone. It’s over. The matriarch has come looking for trouble.
What should she do? Should she tell Huo Yanting?
If she told him, would Huo Yanting let her go meet the matriarch alone? If she didn’t tell him, and Mrs. Huo chose to make things difficult for her, that wouldn’t be a joke either.
Lin Banxia knew very well what kind of temperament Mrs. Huo had. In her previous life, she’d served her for three years; Mrs. Huo was absolutely not the easy-going or affable type.
Sitting in the car, Lin Banxia agonized for quite a while before finally making up her mind.
Since she had already decided to be with Huo Yanting, this hurdle with the matriarch was inevitable, and she needed to mentally prepare herself to face it.
