Chapter 95: The Big Villain Goes Home to Inherit the Family Business
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Nan Qiao ran for a long time and didn’t stop. It wasn’t until she left West Street that she slowly stopped and panted.
Her hair fell down her back. The b.a.s.t.a.r.d had ripped the hair band out of her hair.
Her ears felt hot and painful at the same time. Recalling what had just happened, her entire face turned red with embarra.s.sment. She kept wiping her ears with her hands, making them red. Even so, she could still feel the scorching temperature of Huo Yichen’s lips when he bit her.
Moreover, she had subconsciously slapped Huo Yichen just now.
That was the person who would become the evil big boss in the future.
Nan Qiao pinched the s.p.a.ce between her eyebrows and felt that her emotions were in a mess.
It shouldn’t be a problem, right? Even if he wanted to take revenge in the future, she still had her Big Brothers to protect her. It shouldn’t be a problem.
She never wanted to see that b.a.s.t.a.r.d again.
She would treat it as if all her sincerity during this period of time had been fed to a dog.
At this moment, Nan Qiao thought of a problem. Huo Yichen was in such a miserable state. How did he become the final top boss in the end?
It was only briefly described in the novel. After all, he was not the main character.
The next night, Huo Yichen put his mother to rest. He was alone in the small, 4.0 square meters house. He didn’t turn on the window or the lights. In the dark world, he was the only one moving. He then curled up in a corner. He opened a can of beer and leaned his head against the wall tiredly.
Huo Yichen knew that Nan Qiao would never come back after how rough he had treated her yesterday.
It was all he’d hoped for, but he couldn’t help remembering the smell of her, the sound of her voice, the tears, the smile…
Just thinking about it made Huo Yichen feel a part of his body gradually become stronger. He couldn’t even control it.
However, at this moment, there was a knock on the door. It was light, heavy, and not urgent. It was obvious that the visitor was an extremely well-educated person.
Huo Yichen’s thoughts were interrupted, and his expression changed. He raised the unfinished can of beer and smashed it against the door.
“Don’t be a f.u.c.king pain in the a.s.s. The door’s unlocked.”
The man who opened the door was wearing a suit and leather shoes. He looked to be in his fifties and was a very particular man. His tie was neatly tied. He had an amiable smile on his face as he stood at the door.
“Young Master, Old Master and Madam both hope that you can go back and inherit the family business.”
“Get lost.”
Huo Yichen bent one leg and opened another can of beer. He held the can in his slender hand and poured it into his mouth.
The Huo family’s old butler, Huo Feng, advised, “Young Master, Old Master, and Madam miss you very much and look forward to your return every day.”
Huo Yichen sneered and said in a low voice, “I haven’t even f.u.c.king met them before. What are they looking forward to?”
Two days after his mother pa.s.sed away, a group of mysterious people actually looked for him. They claimed to be from the Huo family in Beijing and told him about their background.
When he was in the prime of his youth, his father had made a mistake, resulting in his birth. All these years, his mother had brought him to hide everywhere and finally stabilized in An City. Unexpectedly, just as his mother died, this group of people came looking for him.
Their goal was for him to go back and inherit the family business just because his first wife’s son had died in an accident.
“The girl Young Master saw yesterday is the only heir of Shengjing Group. Her future is limitless. Old Master Murong adopted five children when he was alive, and all of them were dragons and phoenixes among men. Now, the difference in status between you and that lady will only grow. Are you willing to watch her get further and further away from you?
Becoming the heir of the Huo Family is the only way for you to be on par with that young lady. You have to know that even if you achieve something by yourself in the future, the Murong Family is a height that you can’t reach even if you work hard for several lifetimes.
Don’t you want an ident.i.ty and status that could put you on the same level as her?”
The old butler, Huo Feng, hit the nail on the head and exposed Huo Yichen’s thoughts.
For the past few days, he had been deliberately observing Huo Yichen, including what he had done yesterday.
It seemed like he was bullying a little girl, but in fact, he was deliberately trying to drive her away. What made Huo Yichen do all this was nothing more than the difference in their status.
“Young Master, as long as you become the heir of the Huo family, your status will be on the same level as hers. Don’t you want to seek justice for the grievances your dead mother has suffered all these years?”
Huo Yichen fell into a trap, unable to breathe or escape.
However, when he thought of the torture his mother had suffered and the exquisite little face that always greeted him with a bright smile and cunning eyes, he agreed.
“Pick me up tomorrow.”
“Alright, Young Master.” Huo Feng left with satisfaction and closed the door for him.
The noise around them seemed to be completely separated by the door. The only sound in the room was Huo Yichen’s own panting and the sound of beer swaying in the can.
Hearing the heavy rain outside the window, he raised his finger and wrote Nan Qiao’s name on the ground over and over again.
He kissed the hair tie on his wrist and called out gently and lingeringly, “Qiaoqiao, wait for me.”
A month pa.s.sed, and next week was the day of the college entrance examination. Nan Qiao and An Nuo took advantage of the weekend to go shopping to release their stress.
“Qiao, we’re about to become university students. Shouldn’t we buy more mature clothes?” An Nuo had recently become obsessed with mature styles. The design pictures on the cell phone were all midriff-revealing, shoulder-revealing, and short skirts. She liked this style of clothes.
“It’s up to you. I don’t like them.” Nan Qiao and An Nuo had browsed through two types of clothes.
One was a s.e.xy and hot girl outfit.
One was a refreshing mature sister outfit.
An Nuo didn’t know if it was just her imagination, but she felt that ever since Huo Yichen transferred schools, Nan Qiao had become more and more reticent. Although their relationship was still as good as before, she didn’t like to interact with others now. Even her smile had decreased a lot.
“Qiao, when Huo Yichen left, did something happen between the two of you?” This question had been lingering in An Nuo’s mind for a long time. Ever since she came back that day, Nan Qiao’s emotions had been abnormal. It had lasted for more than a month, and she finally could not help but ask.
“It’s nothing. I just saw the real nature of that person.” What happened before seemed to be still vivid in Nan Qiao’s mind. In the past month, she couldn’t figure out why Huo Yichen would risk his life to save her if he really hated her.
Sensing that Nan Qiao was even more depressed, An Nuo quickly changed the topic.
“Let’s not talk about this. Let’s look at the clothes. I’m going to a party after the college entrance examination. Help me choose which clothes would suit me better.”
“What party?” Nan Qiao had to ask clearly so that she could recommend clothes for her.
“Do you know Old Master Cheng? It’s that old professor from the archeology Department, the master appraiser. This gathering is to celebrate his 70th birthday. Basically, all the famous families in An City will go.. Your family should have received the invitation too, right?”
