Chapter 521: I Never Go Back On My Words
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“You must have thought that our family relationship was very good in the past. You must have thought that the mother was kind and the son was filial.”
Mu Qingya couldn’t deny this. From the moment she first met Huo Shengyuan, her impression of everyone in the Huo Family was indeed like this. Everyone was in their own position, doing their own job, and they were very well-mannered. Therefore, she was very comfortable with everyone until Huo Jiuxiao and his wife returned to the Huo Family and completely tore apart the hypocritical mask of the Huo family.
Only then did Mu Qingya realize that Huo Zizhen was so rotten, Huo Weichen was so lecherous, and Huo Shengyuan…
“You’re starting to reflect on yourself. This is a good thing. This means that you won’t be deceived by that mother and son anymore.”
“Forget about me, but you, Zizhen, how could you? Mom just gave you the Huo Corporation’s shares!” To Mu Qingya, even if there were no good people in the Huo Family, Huo Zizhen was not a good person either. She was not in the position nor qualified to criticize the Huo family in front of her because they were all the same.
“She’s not giving me shares. She wants me to let her son live. I’m afraid I’ll feel disgusted. Second Sister-in-law, would you instigate your daughter to scheme for your sister-in-law to have a miscarriage? Knowing that her family background might threaten her daughter’s safety, she pushed her own daughter out without hesitation. She didn’t even let go of the wedding. She wanted to use it to achieve her goals. Hasn’t she abandoned me completely?”
Mu Qingya was speechless. She had just cut off all ties with Mother Mu and was still pregnant. She knew that neither her mother nor herself would do such a crazy thing.
“Then what role do you play in the Huo Family now?”
“You will know in the future.” Huo Zizhen did not intend to state her position. “Cherish your body. At least you’re still healthy.”
As for her, she could no longer walk normally.
Mu Qingya subconsciously looked at Huo Zizhen’s legs. Her right leg was crippled because of Huo Weichen, and her left leg was injured because of Miss Lei. Huo Zizhen really seemed to be paying off her debts.
“The surgery will be done in the next two days. The mother and son are dealing with the Huo Corporation’s interrogation now, so they won’t pay too much attention to your movements. Even if they do, there won’t be a problem with my cooperation here. Or do you need an excuse to give up completely?”
Mu Qingya didn’t say anything. Although she didn’t want to admit it, the subtle flame in her heart was still burning.
“Silly woman, let me arrange it.”
Huo Zizhen and Xing Guan’s wedding was only a few days away. However, due to Huo Shengyuan’s scandal, everyone in the Huo Corporation had been talking about it, afraid that Huo Qingxiao would find out about it and implicate them. Therefore, they were no longer interested in attending the wedding of this rich young lady.
Huo Shengyuan’s investigation team was re-established and extended to a month. During this period, Huo Shengyuan’s position was temporarily taken over by Huo Shengyuan himself, and the Huo Corporation once again entered a state of danger and chaos.
The Mu family, which was implicated because of Huo Shengyuan, was in a bad state. Several of Mu Qingya’s uncles were investigated, and then it was her siblings. If it were not for the Mu family’s parents, the Mu family would not have been able to recover from this.
During this period, Huo Shengyuan the person who had benefited from the wedding, did not say anything, not even a word of sympathy. All his thoughts were on stabilizing the shareholders and how to make good use of Huo Zizhen’s wedding to drag Huo Jiuxiao into the swamp.
What was Master Xiao doing at this moment? He was completing Xu Chonglou’s arrangements and tests. The government wanted to build a large-scale medical experimental station abroad and expand the impact of domestic medical treatment on developing countries. However, the government could not directly come forward, so they needed this middleman contractor.
Huo Jiuxiao was undoubtedly the best candidate because he had a natural advantage overseas. Coupled with his ability and character, Xu Chonglou believed that he would be able to handle this matter perfectly. However, this way, the couple might be separated from time to time.
However, Xu Chonglou’s worry was unnecessary. The couple had been living together for two years, and no one knew better than them the value of parting and the importance of each busy with their own lives.
Lin Wanli was willing to cover for Master Xiao because she knew that this was the value of her man. He wouldn’t be bothered by the Huo Family’s little fight at all. Huo Shengyuan’s ending was near, and Master Xiao’s path had just begun…
At night, Lin Wanli was already asleep. In the middle of the night, she heard some movement. When she opened her eyes in a daze, she saw Master Xiao lifting the blanket and getting into bed.
Lin Wanli rushed over and laid her head on Huo Jiuxiao’s chest. She heard his strong heartbeat and thought in a daze.
[You’ve been coming back later and later these past two days.]
“Miss me?” Huo Jiuxiao put his right hand behind his head and his left hand on Lin Wanli’s shoulder.
[Yes, I can’t sleep well without you. Mu Qingya’s surgery is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon, but she still wants to go to the hospital in the morning to make sure that she doesn’t die, so Zizhen has already arranged it.
Huo Jiuxiao kissed the top of her head and said, “I’ll take you and Huo Zizhen to see Youran tomorrow night. I’ll be on a business trip the day after tomorrow. I’ll be back before Huo Zizhen’s wedding. I’ll send Huo Shengyuan off one last time, cover for me.”
[So you still remember that Huo Zizhen really wants to see our daughter.] Lin Wanli raised her head and looked at Master Xiao’s face. In the darkness, although there was only the outline of his face, Lin Wanli’s infatuation with this face did not diminish at all. Darkness had its own charm.
“I never go back on my words.”
No matter who it was.
This was Huo Jiuxiao.
[It’s been a long day, hasn’t it?] Lin Wanli suddenly asked.
“It’s alright.”
[But I want you to be happy.] After she finished speaking, Lin Wanli moved down, but Huo Jiuxiao pulled her back into his arms.
“I don’t want Ah Li to do this for me.” After saying that, Huo Jiuxiao’s kiss came, as if he wanted to vent his longing for the whole day. “But I don’t object to it. Sit up…Move yourself.”
When would Huo Shengyuan find out? Huo Jiuxiao had never cared about the Huo Corporation because he could create whatever he wanted. This was just one of the reasons why Lin Wanli was infatuated with him.
The next day, it was raining and snowing. The sky in Jinzhou was as gloomy as a black hole that swallowed a giant beast.
Mu Qingya and Huo Zizhen went to Huo Shengyuan’s ward together. Before that, Huo Zizhen gave Mu Qingya an idea. “People say that you should judge a person by his bottom line. Pretend that the Mu family is going bankrupt. Let’s see how the mother and son will react. But let me say this first. There won’t be the answer you want.”
“You’re working for Huo Jiuxiao, aren’t you?”
Huo Zizhen smiled and said, “When everyone was abandoning me and humiliating me, only he and sister-in-law saved me. Just like how Lin Wanli saved you that day.”
