“If word of what you said last night gets out, Huo Qihan will probably come to the door to cause trouble for you and Young Madam.”
Huo Chenhuan narrowed his eyes dangerously. “The fact that he’s still causing trouble for me and Yanyan means that he hasn’t encountered enough hards.h.i.+p.”
Zuo Yanbai’s eyes darkened. “Something is going to happen to the piece of land that Huo Qihan bought previously. However, if something happens, I’m afraid the Huo Corporation will suffer great losses…”
“It’s fine. The Huo Corporation that Huo Qihan has been managing for so many years is no longer the Huo Corporation that my father left behind.”
Zuo Yanbai furrowed his eyebrows and remained silent. With Huo Chenhuan’s current a.s.sets, a small Huo Corporation was not worth his attention.
But if that was the case, why did he have to go through so much trouble to get the Huo Corporation back?
As if reading Zuo Yanbai’s mind, Huo Chenhuan sneered, “No matter what, the Huo Corporation was left behind by my father. They don’t deserve it.”
Huo Chenhuan asked, “How’s the investigation of my parents’ deaths back then?”
Upon hearing Huo Chenhuan’s question, the two of them straightened their faces and said guiltily, “It’s been a long time since the incident happened, and most of the people involved have either gone far away or pa.s.sed away. It’s slower to investigate.”
This answer was within Huo Chenhuan’s expectations. He lowered his eyes and said, “It’s fine. Continue to investigate. There will always be a conclusion.”
It was fine if this matter had nothing to do with Huo Qihan and his wife, but if it really had something to do with them…
Huo Chenhuan subconsciously touched the ring on his finger. When he opened his eyes again, the anger had already dissipated.
Downstairs, Su Yayan was dragged by Ling Xiaoqi to the backyard of the manor. She walked back and forth a few times before she finally sat down beside the swing rack. They chatted casually.
The yard was surrounded by blue roses that Su Yayan liked. On the swing’s rattan stand, there were circles of light purple flowers. It looked warm and beautiful, perfect for the fairytale home.
“This place is so beautiful.” Ling Xiaoqi walked on the swing as she praised, “I used to think that rich men were fickle, but now that I’ve seen you interact with your husband, I realize that I was too narrow-minded. There are good people and bad people in every kind of crowd. There are good people and bad people among the poor, and there are also bad people among the rich.”
“The kind of rich man that you’re talking about, if he’s not a playboy, then he’s one of those self-righteous male phoenixes who rely on women to start their own business. It’s true that once a man has money, he becomes bad, but it’s not absolute. It’s just that under the bombardment of money and the drunken riddles, few people can survive.”
“That’s why girls should keep their eyes open. Don’t look for a boyfriend in the trash. Even if you’re unlucky enough to run into him, you should know how to stop yourself from falling deeper and deeper.
Ling Xiaoqi was silent for a while after hearing what she said. She could not help but laugh. “Oh, you’ve become a relations.h.i.+p consultant after getting married. You’re so reasonable. It’s a pity that many things in this world are easier said than done. Just like your husband. You’re so logical now. If he really changes in the future, you might not be willing to let go.”
“It’s impossible.”
“What?”
“Even if he changes, he will only grow to love me more and more. It will never happen the way you’re worried about.”
“Are you so sure?” Ling Xiaoqi was a little upset. Did her mother believe that man too?
