Chapter 480: Is She Working For You?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Not only did the board of directors demand that Yun Shujing be kicked out of the board of directors, but they also requested that Yun Shujing hand over the follow-up of Huo Weichen to the company’s public relations. This was the only way to ensure that this matter would not be leaked to the greatest extent.
They did not want to embarrass themselves with the Huo Family.
After the board of directors ‘meeting ended, the directors dispersed one after another. At this time, Yun Shujing saw that Huo Jiuxiao was about to leave. She ran after him and blocked him at the entrance of the conference room. She asked, “I just want to know one thing. Are you in contact with Huo Xinhong?” Is Huo Xinhong working for you?
Huo Jiuxiao looked down at Yun Shujing, who had lost all her bearing. “Now, everyone in the world knows that the wife of the Hunt Corporation’s chairman can slander her husband and give birth to a child as she pleases to protect herself. Who do you think will believe that I have something to do with Huo Xinhong?”
“Huo Jiuxiao, don’t you know that you’ll ruin the Huo Family by doing this?”
“Is that so?” Huo Jiuxiao chuckled, then walked around Yun Shujing and left the Huo Corporation.
No one would suspect Huo Jiuxiao used Huo Xinhong because…Huo Xinhong was the culprit behind Huo Jiuxiao’s car accident ten years ago. Huo Jiuxiao probably wanted nothing more than to tear Huo Xinhong into pieces, so how could he possibly work with him from the inside?
To outsiders, Huo Jiuxiao still didn’t have much say in the Hunt Corporation.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been slandered and humiliated in such a situation. If it wasn’t Huo Xinhong clearing Justin’s name on the spot, Justin would probably be the one in trouble today.
Look at the mistress and the illegitimate child. How hateful they were. Even though they were in power now, they would not let go of any opportunity to humiliate the legitimate child. They were too condescending.
This was what Huo Qingxiao heard from his employees after Huo Jiuxiao left. The old fox could not help but chuckle. He felt that when he was young, he was too far behind his son.
Huo Qingxiao had known from the start that Huo Xinhong was in Huo Jiuxiao’s hands, but he had not expected that Huo Jiuxiao would use Huo Weichen’s matter to bury a huge thunderbolt for Yun Shujing and her son.
No matter how much the board of directors valued benefits, they would not be able to tell the fear and threat that Huo Xinhong brought to them. However, Huo Jiuxiao brought this matter to the surface and let everyone see with their own eyes that Yun Shujing and Huo Xinhong were in contact. It was even more likely that they had colluded and made more dirty plans. This made everyone even more afraid of Yun Shujing and her son.
Moreover, Huo Jiuxiao had placed himself in a weaker position, which made it easier for him to do things and less likely to attract attention. Think about it, what kind of shocking big picture could a disabled person with a low status do?
Back then, Huo Qingxiao lost because he was too arrogant. He was not like Huo Jiuxiao, who had come into contact with all levels of society and understood the psychology of those people. Therefore, there were many things that he could not tolerate, and there was no gray area.
Thinking of his son’s brain, Huo Qingxiao couldn’t help but feel gratified.
Perhaps, shortly, even if he wanted to help Huo Jiuxiao, he wouldn’t have the leeway to do so.
Yun Shujing didn’t get an accurate answer from Huo Jiuxiao. Or rather, even if she got an affirmative answer, she couldn’t believe it. Huo Jiuxiao was too scheming. He had everything firmly in his hands, and the outside world still felt that this marriage was too weak. He had no support or external help at all.
Therefore, on the way back, Yun Shujing went crazy. She didn’t know why she kept falling into Huo Jiuxiao’s trap, but she didn’t even know what the scheme was, so she only realized it after losing everything.
What did it mean to be caught by the board of directors in the act of contacting Huo Xinhong Hunt?
This meant that everyone in the Huo Corporation no longer trusted her and Huo Shengyuan as before. They might even start to guard against them. What was worse was that she was kicked out of the Board of Directors and lost a very precious vote. She was too careless.
As for Master Xiao, after he left the Huo Corporation, he went straight back to the business center because he was trying on the evening gown with Lin Wanli. It wasn’t because he wanted to be grand, nor did he want to suppress those unrelated rich kids and daughters. He just wanted to accompany his little wife for a walk. A place like the Huo Family was as boring as a cemetery.
The Rolls-Royce VIP banquet was set up in a French palace. There were many rich people in the circle present, and the children of the aristocratic families were also very famous. When they heard that Huo Jiuxiao was attending, they could not help but laugh. Deaf could not even drive a car, so why would he come to such a place to embarrass himself?
Among them, there was a very famous rich playboy. He was wild, crazy, and loved horror games. This made the rich playboys in the industry always afraid of him. When they attended events together, they never dared to take the initiative to provoke him. They had to obediently go up and greet him. Coincidentally, this man was also here today, and his skills were very terrifying. He had rebelled against his family, so he had trained his martial arts skills. He was almost invincible in the industry, and his mood was moody. If an unlucky person met him and was unhappy, it was common for him to break his arms and legs and receive compensation.
She wondered what kind of scene Huo Jiuxiao would have when he bumped into this living Buddha. Of course, that person didn’t have much to do with the Huo Family and wasn’t Huo Shengyuan’s friend. After all, this man hated people like Huo Shengyuan who were gentle on the surface but hypocritical behind his back.
At three in the afternoon, it rained in Jinzhou.
The Huo family’s limited edition Rolls-Royce appeared at the entrance of the palace on time. Then, the accompanying bodyguards held up black umbrellas for Huo Jiuxiao and Lin Wanli.
Both of them were wearing coats, but Huo Jiuxiao’s was dark green, while Lin Wanli’s was beige. The waiter led the two of them into the inner hall. At this moment, Lin Wanli also took off her coat and handed it to the waiter, revealing her red velvet French dress. Because of the large area of red, her skin was as fair as snow.
Her long, wavy hair draped over her shoulders. There was not much decoration, but the pearl hair clip on the right side of her black hair added a hint of innocence and playfulness to her. Such a pretty beauty naturally attracted the attention of many. However, the most amazing one was the man beside her.
This was the beauty of her face. Her deep-set facial features were mesmerizing at first glance. It was so exquisite that Huo Jiuxiao’s face looked like a piece of art on display. In addition to his tall and slender figure, he gave off a dignified aura. When such a person appeared, he would be the center of attention wherever he went.
What was even more amazing was that Lin Wanli did not seem to be at a disadvantage by his side. One was stunning and the other was charming. Both of them were beautiful and evenly matched. They looked like a perfect match.
Who would have thought that under such a shell was a deaf person?
