Chapter 342: A Sour Lemon
There was a tinge of jealousy in his tone, but Su Yayan seemed to be used to her brother’s occasional outbursts. She coaxed him. “I’ve been busy recently, so I haven’t been contacting you and our parents. How have you been?”
“I’m pretty good, but there’s one less person at home. It’s too empty.”
Su Yayan was startled and her heart warmed. She smiled and said, “Then I’ll go back with Chenhuan this weekend.”
Su Yayan seemed to have thought of something and added, “I’ll bring you something nice to eat.”
“I’m the Young Master of the Su family. What good food have I not eaten? Why would I be concerned about the food you brought back?”
“Yes, yes, yes. You can’t care less about it. It’s just that I’ve come up with a few new dishes recently, and I want you to try my cooking.” It was as if she had no idea who was the one who ate the most when she was cooking at home.
Hearing his sister’s words, Su Yuxuan said awkwardly, “Since you’ve said so, we will wait for you at home. We’ll see if your cooking has improved since you married into the Huo Family.”
“Mm.”
Su Yuxuan chatted with Su Yayan for a while before asking, “Don’t you have anything else you want to ask me?”
“Ahem, I do have something to ask you. About the Huo Corporation, did you also…”
“That’s right. I bribed the media to fan the flames and blow things up. I also secretly found a close friend and asked his family’s elders to help pressure Huo Qihan.”
It would have been better if Su Yayan hadn’t mentioned this. Su Yuxuan felt aggrieved at the mention of this.
Thinking back, when his sister was bullied at school, he was the first person she would run home to with red eyes.
But now, Huo Shaofeng had brought that mistress to look for trouble with her and did not even tell him about it. She really did not want a brother anymore after having a husband.
At that thought, Su Yuxuan snorted and said, “Did Huo Chenhuan tell you? What are his intentions? Does he want to question me? Does he think I shouldn’t have touched the Huo Corporation?”
When Su Yayan made the call, Huo Chenhuan was beside her. Although she did not put him on loudspeaker, Su Yuxuan’s voice wasn’t soft either.
Su Yayan subconsciously glanced at Huo Chenhuan when she heard his accusation. She saw that his expression had changed slightly. He was still looking at her gently and did not seem angry.
She let out a sigh of relief and explained, “You misunderstood him. He didn’t mean it that way. Actually, he was involved in what happened to the Huo Corporation this time. He was taking revenge for me.”
After Su Yuxuan heard Su Yayan’s explanation, he fell silent for a moment before saying, “At least he’s responsible.”
When Su Yayan heard her brother complimenting Huo Chenhuan, she said happily, “He has always been responsible. Brother, don’t worry. He loves me the most now.”
Su Yuxuan, “…”
Su Yuxuan, who was caught off guard, felt as if he had just eaten a whole lemon. He felt sour all over, but he could not let this sourness affect his sister.
He could only turn his sourness into anger as he said coldly, “Huo Shaofeng and that woman are really pus.h.i.+ng their luck. They don’t know what’s good for them. It’s already good enough that you didn’t go and find trouble with them, but they actually came to slander you. If we don’t teach them a lesson, they’ll really think that the Su family is easy to bully.”
Su Yuxuan had intervened partly because of the video and partly because the two families had already become enemies because of the broken engagement.
Now that Huo Shaofeng did not know the gravity of the situation, it was obvious that he wanted to force the Su family to fight him to the death!
