Xiao Huaixing took a shower in the office before packing up and going home.

However, he was also extremely unfamiliar with the so-called wedding home. He had asked someone to register it. Later on, his mother recorded her fingerprints and asked for the password. Only then did he occasionally go over to stay the night. He only went over when Wen Lan had activities.

When Xiao Huaixing entered the house, Huo Yu’an was wearing a shirt, revealing her long and fair legs. She was brewing coffee in the living room.

Xiao Huaixing closed the door and changed into his shoes. “Aren’t you afraid that you won’t be able to sleep if you drink coffee at this hour?” he asked.

Huo Yu’an replied, “Recently, I’ve been obsessed with the drama that your company’s artiste, Wen Lan, is acting in. I’m planning to watch the drama all night. I have to work during the day, so I don’t have time.”

“I think she has a good figure. What do you think, Hubby?” Huo Yut an asked Xiao Huaixing as he sat on the chair.

“An artist must maintain their figure,” Xiao Huaixing replied after a moment of absentmindedness.

“That’s true. Your industry is quite strict.” Huo Yu’an turned her head back and continued to talk to Xiao Huaixing. She said, “I didn’t know what time you would be back, so I didn’t prepare your meal. If you didn’t eat, you can deal with it yourself.”

Xiao Huaixing frowned, obviously unhappy. Although he couldn’t put his finger on it, he felt that Huo Yutan was acting weird.

After Xiao Huaixing went into the bedroom to change his clothes, Huo Yu’an suddenly looked up and said to Xiao Huaixing, “Your mother came over a few days ago. I told you, didn’t I?”

“You did.”

“I didn’t want to hold it against her at first, but she mocked me for being a collateral relative of the Huo family. My father lost his life in the war for power. But my mother has shares in the Huo Group. Do you know what that means? I remember that your company’s revenue last year was 3-3 billion and the net profit was 2.12 billion, but the Huo Group’s revenue last year was 94.8 billion. I won’t allow anyone to not know about this difference.”

Huo Yu’an said casually, with the Huo family’s natural sense of superiority.

This made Xiao Huaixing very uncomfortable and even made him very angry. “Are you angry at me for saying this?” Huo Yu’an asked in a probing manner.

“But your mom said something even worse.”

“Also, because you weren’t around these few days, I fainted once. I called the emergency number myself and went to the hospital for a day. Your mother thought that I went out to fool around with a man.”

“Also, also, did you know that she sprayed chicken blood on my bed?”

After saying that, he walked to the door and took out his leather shoes from the shoe cabinet.

Without turning her head, Huo Yu’an said, “Xiao Huaixing, do you perhaps know Huo Weichen?”

Hearing Huo Weichen’s name, Xiao Huaixing froze.

At this moment, Huo Yutan turned around and smiled. She looked a little strange. She said, “Don’t be nervous. I’m just asking. When you leave, take the trash with you. Thank you.”

Xiao Huaixing quickly changed his shoes and left. When he reached the door, he saw the black trash bag and cursed a few times, but he still took the trash out unwillingly.

After he went to Wen Lan’s place, Xiao Huaixing kept recalling Huo Yu’an’s words, demeanor, and mental state. He kept wondering if she knew something.

Or was it because she was sick and he was not by her side, so she was angry with him?

“Xiao Huaixing, I called you three times, but you still ignored me.” Wen Lan sat on the armrest of the sofa and complained, “What’s wrong with you? You’ve been absent-minded since you entered.”

“I’m fine.”

Upon seeing Wen Lan, Xiao Huaixing recalled that Huo Yu’an had said that he wanted to watch Wen Lan’s show.

The more it was like this, the more his heart palpitated.

Of course, Huo Yu’an was not as scary as the Huo brothers, but when she was depressed, she was also very crazy.

The reason why Huo Yu ‘an was exiled was because she was close to Huo Qingxiao and Huo Jiuxiao. After all, her father had died fighting for power, but she did not hold a grudge against her enemies at all and was sent to France by her mother.

But mother and daughter were mother and daughter after all. With Huo Qingxiao’s compensation, Huo Yu’an’s mother’s hatred had just simmered down after all these years and she had finally remembered her daughter.

Of course, she was very dissatisfied with a son-in-law like Xiao Huaixing. If it were the children of the head of the Huo family, they would definitely not find such a spouse. However, the side branch family was not so strict. At the same time, she thought that Xiao Huaixing had saved her daughter, so she turned a blind eye. She didn’t expect that a mere Xiao Huaixing would play her daughter like a fool.

Huo Yu’an wanted Xiao Huaixing to be restless. Now she could finally experience the pleasure that Lin Wanli was talking about, sitting on a fishing platform. Wasn’t it more fun than cutting her own wrists?

Fortunately, she didn’t insist on her arrogance and learned a lot of tricks from Lin Wanli. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to see Xiao Huaixing’s ugly appearance today.

There was another thing that Lin Wanli was right about. As someone who came later, it was easy for her to be labeled as a mistress. Then, she would not have any advantage in public opinion. At this time, she would have to let Wen Lan embarrass herself a few times. As long as this person was labeled as a liar, it would be much easier to deal with her in the future.

As for how to embarrass her…

Wenxin had a lot.

Other media outlets did not dare to report it, but her media outlets did not have any scruples.

On the other side, Xiao Huaixing had already received news from his assistant that the person who invested in Wen Xin’s restart project was actually Lin Wanli. This woman had been very popular in Jinchuan recently. She had outstanding abilities and methods.

However, he didn’t know that he was the one who paid for it himself. It was only Lin Wanli in name.

It seemed that Wen Xin’s path was indeed unstoppable.

It was not a big deal. After all, she had been suppressed for so many years. There were still many things to do before the project was launched. Whether the drama could be broadcast in the end was also unknown.

However, there was a high chance that Wen Lan would be unhappy. He had to buy some jewelry to appease her.

In the Huo biological laboratory in Africa.

Huo Qingxiao’s body was gradually recovering, and his return journey with Huo Jiuxiao was imminent. Huo Qingxiao was worried when he thought of the people at home. Huo Jiuxiao was deaf, so he was at a disadvantage.

“After we return to the country, let’s go to the headquarters for another hearing test. Even if there’s still a glimmer of hope, I don’t want to give up.” “No need.” Huo Jiuxiao looked at Huo Qingxiao and refused.

He couldn’t be sure if his mind-reading ability would still be there if his hearing was restored.

Before he completely eliminated the Huo brothers, he wanted to hear their dirty hearts.

Moreover, having a weakness would lower the enemy’s guard.

The first thing he would do when he returned to the Huo family was to find his second uncle, Huo Xinhong, and completely eradicate him.

Of course, his stepmother would definitely know where this person was..
