Ye Beisheng subconsciously stopped in her tracks.
Lin Zhen was still as calm as ever, but his words shocked Ye Beisheng.
“Madam, Mrs. Huo and Chairman Huo have already eliminated all obstacles over the years, so even if we know that the Ninth Master isn’t Mrs. Huo’s biological son, it won’t help.”
Ye Beisheng asked, “Why would it be useless now? Huo Shiting has nothing to do with Mrs. Huo. Why should he suffer all these years? Mrs Huo….” “If the Ninth Master isn’t Mrs. Huo’s son, then who does he belong to?”
“Madam, perhaps you have the answer in your heart, but it’s too difficult to change anything now.” Lin Zhen asked slowly.
Ye Beisheng didn’t understand. “How could it be difficult?
Since Lin Zhen could say such things, it was obvious that Lin Zhen knew what she was thinking about.
Ye Beishen guessed that Huo Shiting had nothing to do with Mrs. Huo. He should be Xie Zhinian’s child, or… he could be someone related to Xie Zhinian. Since Mrs. Huo was so afraid of him and wanted him dead, then Huo Shiting was probably the son ot Chairman Huo’s first wife, Xie Zhinian.
Why couldn’t he tell the Xie family? If he had told the Xie family when he was young…
“When the Ninth Master was young and helpless, he certainly sought help from the Xie family.”
“Ninth Master is an intelligent man. Could it be that he can’t think of a reason?” Lin Zhen said slowly. He even brought his DNA comparison with Mrs. Huo’s to the Huo Family, but the Old Master of the Xie Family had been in a vegetative state all these years. After Miss Xie passed away, the entire Xie Family could not take care of themselves. Who would care about him?”
“Later on, the Xie family had Xie Lan.”
Xie Lan… The adopted son of the Xie family was rumored to be Xie Zhinian’s biological son.
“Didn’t they check their DNA?” Ye Beisheng asked with difficulty. “If Xie Lan’s genes were different from the Xie family, how could they…..”
Lin Zhen shook his head. “Of course the Xie family has investigated. Do you really think the Xie family doesn’t know anything? How could a huge family like the Xie family not know the Ninth Master’s identity? However, there was no other way. The Huo family and the Xie family had already parted ways. There was no need for them to give up their face for someone with the surname Huo.”
Ye Beisheng felt a chill run down her spine.
She understood what Lin Zhen meant.
Lin Zhen meant that the Xie family knew Huo Shiting’s identity, but… He had already been taken away by Mrs. Huo and had lived with her for so many years as her son.
But now, if they were announcing to the world that Huo Shiting was actually Xie Zhinian’s son…..
Then the world would think that the Xie family was incompetent and could not even protect the eldest miss’s child well, allowing him to fall into the hands of a mistress and suffer.
The Xie family could not afford to suffer such a loss of reputation, so they simply went with the flow… From then on, he would not have any contact with Huo Xiting, and they would also suppress Huo Xiting in all aspects, cutting off the possibility of him announcing this matter to the world.
So… It was clearly Mrs. Huo and Chairman Huo’s greed that turned Huo Xiting from the real young master of the Huo Family into an illegitimate child.
The Xie family, who should have helped Huo Xiting, stood on the opposite side of him just to save their ridiculous reputation.
Lin Zhen sighed. “Madam, the Ninth Master only wants to find out how his biological mother died. As for the rest…. He won’t have any extravagant hopes of getting a hold of himself.”
Whether it was the Xie family or the Huo family, they were both bottomless pits to him.
Ye Beisheng nodded. “I understand. I’ll go up and check up on him.”
Upstairs, Lin Long was very anxious.. “Ninth Master, are you alright?”
