After Huo Qingxiao hung up the phone, a cold smile appeared on his face. He snatched this position back then because he did not want to be restricted by the shareholders. Of course, it was self-evident who incited those shareholders to lecture him.

Yun Shujing’s habit of eavesdropping was still the same. When she found out that many shareholders supported Huo Shengyuan, there was only joy in her heart. However, she did not understand how much of Huo Shengyuan’s trump card had been exposed.

Yun Shujing didn’t think too far ahead. She only knew that her son had been keeping a low profile for the sake of the day when he could raise his head in front of others.

Huo Jiuxiao wanted to snatch everything he had when he came back. Where did his face come from? Who gave him the courage? He was just a deaf person…

The heavy rain in Jinchuan continued. The autumn weather finally had a hint of coolness.

After burying Old Madam Lin, Huo Jiuxiao took off his suit jacket and draped it over Lin Wanli’s shoulders. The umbrella above his head was only for Lin Wanli to shelter from the rain, and his entire back was exposed to the wind.

After the funeral, Lin Xueyi asked Ye Weiyin, “What are your plans?” Zhenzhen

is still waiting tor you abroad.”

Ye Weiyin tilted her head and looked at the Old Madam’s tombstone. Then, she replied to Lin Xueyi, “This old thing probably wants to drag her descendants down with her even after she dies. That’s why I’ve already decided to stay in Lingshan Temple to help her release her soul. At my age, it doesn’t matter if I go abroad or not. The future belongs to the young. I have to take responsibility for my sins.”

Lin Xueyi wanted to persuade her, but she was stopped by Lin Wanli.

“Mom, respect everyone’s choice.”

Lin Xueyi took a deep breath and nodded. “As long as you want to, you can turn back anytime. Don’t forget that you are still a mother.”

“You guys can go. Stay far away from this old thing and never come again.”

The wind on the mountain was very strong, blowing their skirts and long hair in the air.

Lin Xueyi knew that Ye Weiyin had made up her mind, so she turned around and left with the umbrella. Because she was about to send her daughter and son-in-law off.

Lin Wanli had left Jinchuan and entered the Huo family. It was likely that they would not be able to see each other again in the short term.

Lin Xueyi wanted to complain, but when she turned around and saw half of Huo Jiuxiao’s body in the rain, she couldn’t say anything.

In the end, she could only reach out to touch Lin Wanli’s face and say, “Mom will wait for your good news. I will also take good care of Youran for you. I won’t give Youran any pressure because I only hope that you can all be simple and happy now. ”

“Thank you, Mom.” Lin Wanli’s eyes glistened with tears. ‘Why don’t you say a few words about your son-in-law?”

“I have eyes. I can see.” Lin Xueyi glared at her. “Two people holding an umbrella, don’t always let one person get drenched in the rain.” Lin Wanli turned around and saw Huo Jiuxiao’s drenched body.

“Let’s go.”

Lin Wanli throat rolled. She got closer to Master Xiao and felt the cold air on his body.

However, before they could go down the mountain, Huo Yutan called Lin Wanli. “Is Big Brother with you?” She asked.

“Of course.”

“My mom needs help.”

Mrs. Huo got Butler Qin’s contact information from Huo Yu’an but realized that she had lost contact with this person. Then, Mrs. Huo dug up Butler Qin’s file from a few years ago and contacted his family, but his family stammered and couldn’t explain where he had gone. Mrs. Huo felt that there was something fishy about it, but she couldn’t find Butler Qin now. She knew that Huo Jiuxiao had methods to track him down, so she asked Huo Yu’an to call for help.

Lin Wanli told Huo Jiuxiao the whole story.

“Tell her to send over all the information she has,” Huo Jiuxiao said.

[Then when are we going to the Huo Family?]

Huo Jiuxiao sent Lin Xueyi off first before hugging Lin Wanli and getting into the car.

The butler sent a message saying that Huo Qingxiao was threatened. The shareholders demanded that Huo Shengyuan and Mu Qingya’s wedding be held as scheduled and that the other couple be their wedding decorations.

When Lin Wanli saw the news, she sneered. She thought to herself, I can hear what the Huo Family’s second son is thinking even in Jinchuan.

Did he think that he could suppress Master Xiao’s status just because he had been in the Huo family for ten years? Did he think that an illegitimate child was worthy of having a legitimate child raise his status? It was truly laughable.

Master Xiao had a total of two cards with evidence.

One of them was Huo Xinhong, and the other was Huo Ziahen.

However, he felt that he might not be able to use either of them now. Huo Yu’an’s mother was investigating the truth, and that might solve the problem of the wedding.

He wanted to give Lin Wanli the grandest wedding. It wasn’t anyone’s pendant, nor was it behind anyone.

Moreover, he wanted the Huo siblings to be willing to give up.

The Huo Family had always had an ancestral rule. No matter how much they fought in private, they should not let the other party get hold of any evidence. Once there was evidence, they could request a public trial in the Huo Family’s ancestral hall. If Huo Yu’an’s mother could get the evidence of Yun Shujing causing her miscarriage, then this scandal would make Yun Shujing pay the price.

Huo Yu’an’s mother could make a request. As long as it was reasonable, Yun Shujing would compensate her.

Someone else’s son died, and your son got married in a grand way? This was really piercing.

[Master, are you going to take care of the butler?]

After Huo Jiuxiao got into the car, he took off his shirt that was drenched in the rain and looked at Lin Wanli. “But so far, it’s just a butler. I haven’t touched the security system yet.”

Mind reading was equivalent to cheating in all aspects.

The entire Huo family Imew that Huo Jiuxiao was deaf, so they all treated him as a joke. However, they did not know that he was slowly grasping the factions and thoughts of these people, and was slowly invading everyone’s secrets. Huo Jiuxiao went to Di Heng and passed the information to Duan Yanxing.

Lin Wanli also saw Yan Qiu training there.

“Wait for me,” she said to Yan Qiu from afar.

Yan Qiu was covered in sweat as she gave Song Huaishu a good beating.

Song Huaishu was also furious. He had not expected that he would actually lose to a little girl.

In a place like Di Heng, the only person that could be feared by Yan Qiu was Duan Yanxing. The others were just a matter of lifting a finger.

She was talented, and very talented.

Duan Yanxing saw through this seedling and had no intention of returning her to Lin Wanli.

“When it’s done, tell Lin Wanli that I want Yan Qiu.”

“Anything else is fine. I won’t give Yan Qiu to you,” Huo Jiuxiao said with a frown.

This was because he knew about Yan Qiu’s skills and her loyalty to Lin Wanli. It was not easy to find such a bodyguard. Lin Wanli needed one.

“Why not let her choose?” Duan Yanxing smiled confidently. “Just wait and see.”

Huo Jiuxiao could read Duan Yanxing’s admiration for Yanqiu, but this was where the danger lay. Everyone’s feelings started from admiration.

However, judging from the look on Yan Qiu’s face, Duan Yanxing was probably going to suffer a lot.

“A piece of advice from someone who’s been there before. Don’t be too curious about a person..”
