The banquet at Songshan was tomorrow night, but Huo Shengyuan had already gotten the list of people who would be attending the banquet. Director Liu, Director Zheng, and the like were also present.

Huo Shengyuan was supposed to attend, but he had to go to the neighboring city to sign an important contract, so he could only call Director Liu to take care of Huo Jiuxiao.

“Don’t worry. Your reputation on the Board of Directors is unparalleled. Besides, this eldest son of the Huo Family has caused us so much trouble regarding the Moon Breeze. How can I let him have it easy? If you’re not here tomorrow night, then I’ll take back what’s yours from Huo Jiuxiao a thousand times over.”

“Leave him some dignity.”

If Huo Jiuxiao was too ugly, Huo Shengyuan wouldn’t be able to stand it either.

“Since you’ve asked, I’ll try my best.” Director Liu boasted shamelessly over the phone.

After hanging up the phone with Huo Shengyuan, Director Liu looked at the missed calls on his phone again. He first returned the call from his subordinate, and then impatiently dialed his lover, Yi Mengjie’s number.

“Why are you looking for me?”

“Yousong, your wife is at my house with her son. She wants to discuss a deal with me.” Yi Mengjie whispered over the phone.

Director Liu narrowed his eyes. There was a fierce look in his eyes. He replied to his lover, “Keep an eye on them. I’ll go and arrest them personally now.”

“Alright, I’ll wait for you.” Yi Mengjie hung up the phone and created an escape scene with Liu’s mother and son. They only left the evidence of Director Liu’s crime on the dining table in Yi Mengjie’s living room.

After leaving Yi Mengjie’s house, the mother and son took advantage of the time difference and sneaked to the vicinity of the Liu family when Director Liu came to arrest them. They mustered up the courage to find the chef in the family. This chef had been indebted to Madam Liu for many years and was the only person the Liu family could trust.

They didn’t dare to make any reckless moves. They only asked the western kitchen to help put up cameras in the living room, Director Liu’s study, and the master bedroom.

If we’re unlucky and that scumbag finds out, he’ll suspect you. So, you should resign tomorrow morning. I still have friends that I can trust. I’ll recommend you to a Michelin restaurant. Don’t work at that scumbag’s house anymore. It’s too dangerous.”

“It’s fine. I can keep an eye on it for you.” The western chef replied, “Don’t worry, I know some self-defense skills. I won’t get hurt. I’ll take responsibility

for my own life.”

Madam Liu couldn’t bear it, but she had no other choice. She finally nodded. “Zhiheng and I will create some chaos at the door. We should be able to create some opportunities for you. That scumbag went to his lover’s house and won’t be back for a while.”

“You’ve grown a lot, Madam.” The chef, who had tanned skin but looked very healthy, smiled and sighed.

“I have no choice. If I want to achieve my goal, I have to pay the price.” The temptation of letting that scumbag go to jail was too great. Even if she had to risk her life, she wanted to give her son a clean and free future.

“Then let’s split up.”

At the same time, a gust of wind blew in Jinzhou. The evening breeze rustled the trees outside the villa area, causing the pedestrians on the road to be in a hurry. The leaves were rolled up again and again and finally fell to an unknown place along with the dust.

Liu Yousong brought his men to his lover’s residence. However, when he opened the door, he saw his lover, Yi Mengjie, walking around the living room alone.

“Where is he?”

“Tomatsu, they jumped out of the window and ran away. I really couldn’t stop them. They even brought knives. Look, my hand is cut.” As Yi Mengjie cried, she rolled up her sleeves, revealing the scars on her skin and flesh. It was indeed a shocking sight.

“He ran away, and you still called me here?” Director Liu was not in the mood to comfort his lover.

“No, they didn’t have time to take this away.” Yi Mengjie handed the yellow paper bag on the table to Liu Yousong. “I didn’t know what it was, so I opened it to take a look. But I couldn’t understand it. I thought that since they treasured it so much, it must be very important, so I called you.”

Liu Yousong took the yellow paper bag and opened it. It was the evidence that was lost in his safe. He kept the evidence and looked at Yi Mengjie suspiciously. “You don’t understand?” he asked.

“Yousong, I can’t understand. I’m your woman.”

Liu Yousong grabbed Yi Mengjie’s neck and leaned closer to him. He dangerously warned her, “You better remember this. Also, you did a good job on this matter. When I have time in two days, I’ll come over to see you and our son.”

With that, Liu Yousong let go of Yi Mengjie and asked his subordinates to search the house. After confirming that there was no one in the house, he turned around and left with his subordinates and evidence.

Yi Mengjie watched Liu Yousong leave, but there was anger on her face and a trace of hatred in her eyes. From Liu Yousong’s point of view, Yi Mengjie had almost spared him five years of his sentence. He had only said, “You did well.”

It seemed that some positions needed to be fought for by themselves. It was probably impossible to rely on his pity and charity in this lifetime.

An hour later, Liu Yousong returned home. He heard the butler say to him, “Not long ago, Madam and Young Master came back. They wanted to enter the house, but they ran away after being discovered.”

“B*tch, when I catch her, I’ll skin her alive.”

Liu Yousong put the evidence back into the safe. Although he had changed the password, this time, there was a surveillance camera in the study, so his password was almost non-existent.

Late at night, a rain fell.

Yun Shujing was drinking red wine in her room, celebrating the change in Huo Qingxiao’s attitude alone. At this moment, Huo Zizhen called.

Thinking of Huo Weichen’s instructions, Yun Shujing hung up on Huo Zizhen.

She was about to turn off her phone when she received a message from Huo

Zizhen. “Mom, I’m being hunted down.”

How could Yun Shujing believe it? However, she still called Huo Zizhen back to comfort him.” Daughter, I was busy with work just now. I couldn’t pick up your call. How are you now?”

“Mom, my leg is broken. It’s broken. I want to buy a plane ticket home. Let me go home.” Huo Zizhen cried over the phone. “I’m really scared. I’m going to die.”

At this moment, Yun Shujing only felt that Huo Zizhen’s cries were like flies, making her a little annoyed.

“Zizhen, it’s not that I don’t want you to come back. It’s just that Huo Jiuxiao is eyeing our whole family like a tiger. If you come back, I won’t be able to care about you at all. What if the Lei family takes revenge and the ancestral hall finds trouble? What will I do to you?” Yun Shujing patiently comforted Huo Zizhen.

“Am I not your child? Why can’t you care about me? Is it because you want to take care of Second Brother?”
