Chapter 306 - 306: The Beginning of Another Matter
After such a farce, Yun Shujing naturally did not have the intention to teach Lin
Wanli a lesson. Huo Zizhen and the other two quickly helped the “shocked” Yun Shujing back to the bedroom. In fact, they needed to close the door and discuss what they should do in the future.
It was just that the scene just now contained too much information, making Yun Shujing unable to figure it out for a while.
“You two go back to your room first. Let me calm down.”
Huo Zizhen wanted to say something, but he was pulled out by Huo Weichen.
Yun Shujing seemed to have thought of something. She took out her phone and dialed a string of unfamiliar numbers, but realized that the phone was already switched off. Therefore, she called a few times, but no one answered in the end. For a moment, Yun Shujing panicked.
Other Huo Xinhong himself, even Shen Changmei had no chance to get the photo in her hands. How did Huo Jiuxiao get it? Could it be that Huo Xinhong had already been found by Huo Jiuxiao? Thinking of this possibility, Yun Shujing’s heart was once again in her throat, suffocating her.
Huo Xinhong held too many things that were disadvantageous to her, and she could not let Huo Jiuxiao gain the upper hand. No, she had to find out where Huo Xinhong was right now.
Therefore, just as Huo Zizhen left the house, she was called back by Yun Shujing.
“Zizhen, I can’t contact your second uncle right now. I’m guessing that Huo Jiuxiao has already found your second uncle. That’s very disadvantageous for us, so I need you to bring your bodyguards to Korea immediately and find your second uncle to confirm if he’s under Huo Jiuxiao’s control.”
“I got it, Mom.” Huo Zizhen knew the seriousness of the matter. Huo Xinhong had too many things on them. If Huo Jiuxiao beat her to it, the consequences would be unimaginable. “I’ll find an excuse and go to Korea as soon as possible.”
“Go now, go!” Yun Shujing urged.
The person outside was clearly deaf, a deaf person who could not hear anything. However, as long as he sat there, Yun Shujing began to feel afraid. All these years, they had been hunting Huo Jiuxiao down. Even Lu Xunyan’s betrayal had not taken his life. Now that he thought about it, this deaf person was indeed not to be underestimated.
Huo Zizhen had no choice but to go out and pretend to be on the phone with the doctor in the living room to arrange for cosmetic surgery in Korea.
There was only Huo Qingxiao and the butler in the living room.
Huo Qingxiao said to Huo Zizhen after he heard her on the phone, “Your mother has been in a bad mood these days. Why are you still running around?”
“Dad, it’s too difficult to get the queue of top doctors. I’ll be back soon. Besides, there’s second brother and third brother? You also want your daughter to get married as soon as possible, right?”
Huo Qingxiao snorted coldly and turned his attention back to the financial report.
Huo Zizhen took the opportunity to slip away.
At this moment, the butler smiled and said to Huo Qingxiao, “Old Master, should we prepare some clothes for the Young Madam? She came empty-handed.”
“Do you still need me to arrange this kind of thing?” Huo Qingxiao raised his eyes slightly and asked.
“Then I’ll buy clothes for Young Madam according to the brands that Eldest
Young Master often uses. I’ll invite a designer over to tailor them.”
“There’s no need.” At this time, Lin Wanli went downstairs and rejected the butler’s arrangement. “I have a fixed preference for clothes, so there’s no need to trouble everyone.”
“But…” The butler wanted to say that Lin Wanli’s identity was different from the past, and she had to dress properly. Otherwise, she would only drag Huo Jiuxiao down with her and be laughed at by others.
However, Lin Wanli seemed to have seen through his thoughts. She explained, “An Olympic champion who brought glory to the country married into a wealthy family and was praised by all walks of life for her diligence and thrift. This shows that people are valued by their character, not their appearance. The daughters of wealthy families are already noble enough. Why should I compete?”
The butler did not expect this.
Huo Qingxiao did not expect this.
Huo Qingxiao thought that such a ruthless woman must have a lot of things to pursue. After entering a wealthy family, it would be the beginning of another battle because he needed chess pieces and a sharp knife. However, he did not expect Lin Wanli to have other ambitions.
“Do as Young Madam says.”
“Yes, Old Master.” The butler nodded.
With that, the butler left.
At this moment, only Lin Wanli and Huo Qingxiao were left in the large living room.
Huo Qingxiao was as steady as a mountain, but Lin Wanli seemed to have seen through her father’s true thoughts. “I already know your choice.”
Judging from the scene just now, did it matter whether Huo Qingxiao trusted Yun Shujing or not? It was important to outsiders, but it was not important after entering this house.
Huo Qingxiao did not even care if Huo Shengyuan and the others were his children. In the end, they would all be Huo Jiuxiao’s opponents.
Perhaps he was also waiting for the opportunity to sort out his grudges and prove that he had made the choice to be loyal to his wife.
Upstairs, Huo Huo Zizhen sent a message to Duan Yanxing: Huo Zizhen has set out for Incheon.
Duan Yanxing, who was driving, stopped the car by the side and replied: I’ll arrange everything accordingly.
Yan Qiu sat in the backseat. She was unhappy with Duan Yanxing’s constant pacing and said, “If you can’t do it, let me drive.”
“Has anyone ever told you that it’s dangerous to say that a man can’t do it?”
Duan Yanxing grunted and started to speed up. He asked Yan Qiu, “There’s a mission in Incheon. Are you going? To be President Lin’s executioner.”
Elsewhere, a few elders in the Huo Family’s ancestral hall had sent their elders to Shen Changmei’s villa to ask about it because they were afraid of Huo Xinhong. On the other hand, they also wanted to apologize.
Although Shen Changmei had a grudge in her heart and rejected Uncle Zhong’s gift, she did not hide the source of the photo.
“Butler Qin gave it to me. He said that all these years, in order to collect more evidence against Yun Shujing, he had tried to find Huo Xinhong. He almost found him several times, but Huo Xinhong managed to escape in the end. The photo was found by accident at that time. Also, he said that the last time he found out that Huo Xinhong was very likely to be in Incheon, Korea.”
The other party asked with a frown, “Can I see Butler Qin?”
“He’s already very miserable and doesn’t want to be involved in the Huo family’s troubles anymore. Let him go. He also said Huo Xinhong Huo is crippled and there should be a chance to find him. I think you can go to Incheon and give it a try.”
After the other party heard this, he thanked her and left Shen Changmei’s residence.
At this moment, Shen Changmei revealed a meaningful smile.
Huo Xinhong was in Incheon. Huo Zizhen went to look for him, and so did the people from the ancestral hall. If they happened to see Huo Zizhen and Huo Xinhong together, would Yun Shujing choose to come out and admit it himself, or would she choose to sacrifice Huo Zizhen?
At this moment, Shen Changmei finally understood how terrifying Huo Jiuxiao was.
He had calculated everyone’s psychological activity, which was why he had set up such an interconnected trap.
Did Yun Shujing think that the matter at the Huo family’s ancestral hall was over? No, that was just the beginning of something else….
