“Then what about Jingzhi? Is it also fake?” Huo Shengyuan was indignant and defended himself.
At this moment, Mother Xu looked at her son, feeling very worried. Because she knew how much Xu Jingzhi liked Huo Shengyuan, even to the point of falling out with his family for him.
Xu Jingzhi also walked over in front of everyone’s eyes, but before he could speak, Mother Xu hurriedly said.
“Jingzhi, this person is lying to you. I don’t want you to be deceived.”
However, Xu Jingzhi ignored Mother Xu’s words and turned to Huo Shengyuan.
“It was too boring last night, so I took a breather under the bamboo forest. Then, I took some photos. Brother Shengyuan, you were the one who told people to spread the negative news about Huo Jiuxiao’s heinous crimes, right?”
Huo Shengyuan was speechless because he thought Xu Jingzhi would at least stand on his side.
“You’ve always been good to me because you’re using me, right? Otherwise, you wouldn’t know how much I care about my sister, but you still went to work with Su Yuanchao. You’ve never cared about my feelings, right?”
Huo Shengyuan was still speechless.
“You’re not saying anything, but I have to clarify one thing. Otherwise, others will think that our Xu family is ungrateful. The reason why I turned over a new leaf and went to military school was because I knew who my father’s foot injury was for. Although I fought with him and didn’t want to forgive him, in the depths of my heart, he has always been a father worthy of my pride. I did it to become him, not because of you.” Xu Jingzhi said seriously, “Everyone says that you’ve done me a great favor. I’ve never clarified it and allowed others to misunderstand. I’ve given you enough face, but you’ve never treated me sincerely.”
“Hahaha… Isn’t your Xu family just trying to draw a clear line with us?” Yun Shujing couldn’t take it anymore and burst out laughing. “What’s so good about having a child from marriage? He’s just a cripple. He’s not like my son, who manages the Huo Family in an orderly manner. As long as one isn’t blind, they can see the difference in their abilities, right?”
“I realized that this family is blind. Who is the one who said that Huo Jiuxiao can’t do business?” At this moment, Elder Lu couldn’t sit still anymore. This group of people could put on any act, but he couldn’t look down on Huo Jiuxiao, because that would be the same as looking down on himself. “Don’t you know that his assets have already reached more than 30 billion? Without Huo’s Family, he could still prosper and become one of the richest people in the world, but those illegitimate children of the Hunts? Without Huo Family, what are they?”
“There is indeed a huge difference in ability.”
Although Old Lu was rebutting, Master Xiao frowned. “Why did this old thing
Imow so much about his assets?”
“Isn’t that because Huo Qingxiao took out a lot?” Yun Shujing would rather die than admit that Huo Jiuxiao was better than her son. That would be worse than killing her.
“Old Huo, say something. Have you ever given your son a penny?” Elder Lu snorted coldly.
“No, I haven’t.” At this moment, Huo Qingxiao cooperated and asked Yun Shujing, “Don’t you know my shares and assets better than me?
“Let me say something fair. If it weren’t for you and your son chasing after him time and time again, Huo Jiuxiao wouldn’t even care about the Huo Family’s little things. However, someone didn’t know what was good for him and couldn’t wait to have a good life. He insisted on provoking this big Buddha.
Now, it’s good. It’s easy to invite a god but difficult to send him away. You and your son should just bear with it. Sigh, Huo Jiuxiao is indeed better than the Huo family.”
Lin Wanli looked at Elder Lu’s mouth and felt that this person must have been a ruthless character when he was young. Moreover, the temperament of that old child was indeed funny. How protective was he of his children?
“Since we are not welcome here, my mother and I will take our leave now. Uncle Xu, I’m very sorry for ruining your birthday banquet today. I’ll visit you and apologize in a while.” Huo Shengyuan didn’t want to pester him, because the more he pester him, the more he would know the gap between him and Huo Jiuxiao. He wouldn’t be able to take it.
He had retreated in the face of difficulties, which could be considered to have saved his last trace of face. At the same time, he had taken away Yun Shujing, the troublemaker, so that he still had a chance of survival.
“I won’t let it go just like that.”
Yun Shujing was dragged out of the Xu residence by Huo Shengyuan, and everyone was there to watch the Huo Family’s show. The battle for the Huo Family’s heir was indeed fierce. It had even reached Deer Terrace Pavilion.
However, after this battle, it could be seen that Huo Jiuxiao was completely crushed by Huo Shengyuan. This severely shattered Huo Shengyuan’s impression of a dragon among men. What kind of dragon was this? It could only be considered a worm.
“Heh, a clown.”
He looked at Huo Qingxiao again. The others looked sympathetic and pitiful. However, this person was used to the wind and rain. He only said, “It’s true that he’s not disciplined enough.”
It was as if the embarrassing mother and son had nothing to do with him. Because he still had someone who could live up to his expectations, even though that person did not want to be acknowledged by him.
It was just a short interlude. After losing her temper, Mother Xu’s mood instantly lightened up. Especially when she knew that her son could distinguish right from wrong, she felt extremely relieved.
At this moment, Elder Xu looked at his son with warmth.
Every year, the gifts from Xu Jingzhi would enter his safe because he treated them like treasures. Even his wife did not know about this…
The atmosphere quickly returned to normal. However, in the black car, Huo
Shengyuan couldn’t help but ask Yun Shujing, ‘Why did you stand up for her? Why did things get to this point? I could have endured it and gotten sympathy points, but now I’m out.. Mom, are you satisfied? Why do you always make all kinds of wrong decisions? Why are you always dragging me down?”
