Chapter 117 - David Is Not Dead

Xia Luobing thought for a moment and shook his head.

“How’s Huo Yunzhan recently?” Director Gao looked at Xia Luobing and said, “If the two of you work together, the case should be able to progress faster!”

Xia Luobing thought for a while and said, “High-level, I’ll deal with the clues of the case first. If you need his help, immediately inform him to return. Do you think this is okay?”

Although intoxication was no different from before, he had only rejected Huo Yunzhan for a thousand li. Right now, that fellow was chasing after intoxication in a persistent manner.

Director Gao nodded, “Alright, you arrange this matter.”

Xia Luobing nodded and talked to Director Gao about the other details of the case. After a long time, she took the information and left the director’s office.

“Boss, you’re finally back!” Li Xiang was so excited that he laughed and said, “If you are not here, I will handle the case. I have no confidence in my heart!”

Xia Luobing reached out and knocked on Li Xiang’s head and said with a dark face, “Hurry up and work!”

“Yes!”

She had to talk to Huo Yunqi about David, perhaps she could find some new clues.

Xia Luobing drove downstairs to the Huo Corporation. He checked the time. It was five o’clock now. In half an hour, Huo Yunqi should be off work. He decided to wait downstairs and not go up.

Huo Yunqi tossed the plan to Feng Shuo, “I don’t agree with this case!”

“Reason?” Feng Shuo stared at Huo Yunqi and sneered, “Are you worried that I will solve the company’s crisis and affect your status?”

Li Xiao Ren interrupted, “President Huo, we all know the strength of D.C. Company. If we cooperate, the benefits obtained by Huo Corporation are not only to solve the current problems, but also to the long-term development in the future!”

“As far as I know, the D.C. Is mainly engaged in virtual services on the Internet, while the Huo Corporation is focused on entities. It is too risky for the two to rashly cooperate on such a big project!” Huo Yunqi said coldly.

Feng Shuo bent down and picked up the documents scattered on the ground. “Huo is always worried about the risks? Together with the traditional entities and the growing Internet, this is a huge business opportunity in itself!” Feng Shuo said bluntly.

“Business opportunity? Alright, where do you think the connection between the two companies is?” Huo Yunqi looked at Feng Shuo and said, “Are you going to bear the consequences of such a hasty decision?”

Feng Shuo frowned, “If the plan is not perfect, everyone can work together!”

“I won’t agree to this plan!” Huo Yunqi interrupted Feng Shuo and turned to leave the meeting room, leaving the rest of them looking at each other.

“Ai, President Huo is getting more and more disobedient!” “I’m afraid the company is doomed!” Li Xiao Ren lowered his head and said dejectedly.

Feng Shuo stood up and looked around the shareholders in the office. “If everyone trusts me, I can think of a way to solve this matter. I hope that everyone can support me. We can tide over the difficulties together and not give up on Huo shi!” Feng Shuo said warmly.

“General Manager Feng, we all support you!”

Under Li Xiao Ren’s leadership, all the shareholders signed the plan.

Seeing that everyone else had left, Feng Shuo looked at Li Xiao Ren and said, “Have a good cooperation.”

“Happy cooperation!” Li Xiaoren smiled and said, “I believe President Feng will be able to sit in the position of president soon!”

Xia Luobing waited until seven o’clock, but he didn’t see Huo Yunqi come down. He couldn’t help but wonder if Huo Yunqi was in the company.

“If I weren’t here, wouldn’t I have waited for so long in vain?” Xia Luobing dialed Huo Yunqi’s number with a dark face and said unhappily, “Are you in the office?”

Huo Yunqi scanned the information about D.C. On the computer and said, “Yes, I’m working overtime. What happened?”

Xia Luobing would not have called him if it wasn’t for the importance of the matter.

“Passing by you.” Xia Luobing raised his eyebrows and the corner of his mouth unconsciously rose, “Now go up, will it disturb your work?”

Huo Yunqi stood up and stood at the window. Sure enough, he saw a car parked in the open square in front of the building. His irritability instantly lessened by a lot. “You get up!”

However, after waiting for nearly twenty minutes, no one came up. Huo Yunqi could not help but frown. Could it be that this woman had lost her way?

Thinking of this, Yunqi got up and left the office chair, ready to look for Xia Luobing.

“Kada!”

As Yunqi opened the door, Xia Luobing walked out of the elevator with a bag of things in his hand.

“I brought you dinner!” Xia Luobing raised the item in his hand and said with a dark face, “Must the president be on the top floor?”

Originally, he wanted to come up directly, but thinking that Huo Yunqi definitely didn’t eat, he decided to be kind. Thus, he ran to a nearby fast food restaurant and packed up two boxed lunches. One came and the other went, wasting quite a bit of time.

After dinner, Xia Luobing took out a napkin and wiped his mouth. He looked at Yunqi seriously, “What’s David’s age?”

Huo Yunqi was stunned for a moment, “If I were to live till now, I would be thirty years old. Why did I suddenly mention him? Did something happen?”

“David probably isn’t dead!” Xia Luobing said seriously.

Huo Yunqi was very surprised, “People were blown up at that time. It was impossible for them to survive!”

“The person who died was not David, but a substitute!” Xia Luobing carefully analyzed the situation and added, “According to the forensic examination of the skeletal age of the deceased, that person is around 45 years old.”

Huo Yunqi couldn’t digest the news just like Xia Luobing did. If it weren’t for David, how would he know so much? And his hatred for him didn’t seem fake at all.

“I will investigate this matter clearly!” Xia Luobing thought for a while and then warned Yunqi, “If David isn’t dead, then why would he want a substitute? We don’t know what else to do next, so you have to be careful!”

Years of criminal policing had taught her that there was someone manipulating all of this in the dark, and that danger was slowly approaching where they could not see it.

“You’re still in charge of this case?” Huo Yunqi frowned. The last Chiang Mai case left him with lingering fear. “Be safe!”

He understood Xia Luobing’s personality, and once she made her decision, no one could change it.

“I know.”

As Xia Luobing went all out to investigate the case, Huo Yunqi’s troubles followed.

In the meeting room, Huo Zhengxiong put down the contract in his hand and said seriously, “I have already signed an agreement with the business representative of D.C. The crisis of the company has been resolved. Everyone can rest assured and work in the future. Huo shi will not treat everyone wrongly!”

Huo Zhengxiong held 30% of the company’s shares, plus Feng Shuo and the other shareholders’ shares, directly skipping Huo Yunqi’s signing of the agreement.

“Yunqi, leave this matter to Feng Shuo!” Huo Zhengxiong signaled for Feng Shuo and the other shareholders to leave. He wanted to talk to Huo Yunqi alone.

Huo Yunqi’s face was ashen and his eyes were deep. He didn’t expect Feng Shuo to move so quickly, and he didn’t expect Huo Zhengxiong to support him with all his might!

“Dad, you don’t know D.C!” Huo Yunqi frowned and said, “This cooperation will bring huge hidden dangers to the company!”

Huo Zhengxiong said solemnly, “Yunqi, you’ve let everyone down during this period of time! If I allow you to continue on your own, it won’t be long before Huo shi declares bankruptcy!”

“I won’t let Huo shi go bankrupt!” Huo Yunqi said resolutely, “You must cancel the contract with DC!”

“If we unilaterally terminate the contract, we will need to compensate three times the penalty, six billion!” Huo Zhengxiong stared at Huo Yunqi and said, “Do you think you can easily take out so much money according to Huo Clan’s current situation?”

Huo Yunqi said coldly, “I will think of a way to deal with the money, but Huo shi has to cancel the contract with D.C.”

“Bastard!” Huo Zhengxiong’s face turned ashen with anger. His walking stick knocked on the floor and his eyes widened as he stared at Huo Yunqi. “What Feng Shuo said is indeed correct. You don’t listen to everyone’s opinions at all!”

Huo Yunqi’s chest was furious as he looked at Huo Zhengxiong and said coldly, “Dad, you can’t do this!”

“Since you don’t agree to this cooperation, let Feng Shuo handle this matter!” Huo Zhengxiong said coldly. He leaned on his walking stick and stood up. He said in a deep voice, “Yunqi, you’ve really disappointed me!”

Huo Yunqi was the only one left in the large meeting room. The man’s eyes were tightened and his fists were clenched into fists. Blood seeped out from between his fingers, but he didn’t feel any pain.

“Feng Shuo!”

He must not allow the company to fall into his hands.

The news that Feng Shuo had replaced Huo Yunqi in charge of the cooperation between Huo Clan and D.C. Quickly reached Liu Yan’s ears.

“I don’t agree!” Liu Yan rushed into the study with an ashen face and shouted angrily, “You can’t leave the company to Feng Shuo!”

How could Huo shi hand it over to an illegitimate child for nothing because of her son’s hard work today?

Huo Zhengxiong said in a deep voice, “This is the decision of all the shareholders of the company! If you don’t understand, don’t interfere!”

“If it weren’t for Yunqi, how could the Huo Clan be today?!” Liu Yan said angrily, “You are just biased towards Feng Shuo, aren’t you? Do you think that woman’s son is better than mine?”

Ever since Feng Shuo’s identity was revealed three years ago, Liu Yan had been feeling unhappy in her heart, but she didn’t expect Feng Shuo to steal something that belonged to her son today! Dream on!

“I’ve already decided on this matter. You can leave now!” Huo Zhengxiong said unhappily.

The more Huo Zhengxiong acted like this, the more Liu Yan thought that he preferred Feng Shuo, and the anger in her heart burst out, and she simply couldn’t suppress it.

“Huo Zhengxiong, it was you who did me wrong. That woman deserved to die! If you feel guilty and want to make up for it, don’t use my son’s blood as a favor!” Liu Yan shouted regardless.

As soon as she spoke, Liu Yan regretted it. She could feel Huo Zhengxiong’s angry gaze and couldn’t help but shiver. However, she didn’t show any fear and the study fell into a deathly silence.

“Shut up!” Huo Zhengxiong suddenly stood up, his hands on the table, his lips trembling, “You, you get out!”

“Now you want me to shut up? Why didn’t you think about our family when you were fooling around outside?” Liu Yan shouted unconvincingly, “I’ve already endured enough. Now you actually want a bastard to replace my son! You …”

“Fuck off!” Huo Zhengxiong picked up the book on the table and smashed it out. With a muffled bang, scarlet blood cooked out from Liu Yan’s forehead.

Liu Yan was stunned for a moment. She stretched out her hand and touched her forehead woodenly. It was so hot that it was sticky. Seeing the red color on her hand, her eyes darkened and she instantly collapsed to the ground.

“Liu Yan!” Huo Zhengxiong’s face turned pale as he hurriedly came over to help the person on the ground, “Are you alright?”

“Auntie, what’s wrong?” Ji Wei pushed open the door and entered. Seeing the chaotic scene in the study, he was shocked. He hurriedly helped Huo Zhengxiong to help Liu Yan onto the sofa. “Uncle, don’t be anxious. I, I’ll call the doctor immediately!”

After the doctor dealt with it briefly, he was sure that nothing serious was wrong and did not send her to the hospital. Liu Yan quickly woke up. Seeing Huo Zhengxiong sitting at the side, her pale face was filled with anger, “You want to smash me to death?!”

Huo Zhengxiong’s face was dark and he didn’t say a word. He was so angry that he threw the book out.

“If I die, you can live a good life with that bitch’s son!” Liu Yan looked at Huo Zhengxiong and felt even more guilty.
