This idea coincided with Huo Zhanhe's.

Although they secretly trained Gu Mang after capturing him, Gu Mang was no match for Huo Zhixing.

The things ingrained in their bones are different; no matter how much you train them, a mouse can never become a tiger.

He sent Gu Mang to impersonate Huo Zhixing to sign documents in England to swindle money. Ha, England is his own mother!

If things escalate, Huo Zhanhe will be in deep trouble again.

"Does that Gu Mang really resemble Director Zhixing?" Huo Wenyuan asked him casually.

Sweat beaded on Huo Zhanhe's forehead. "Yes..."

"Moreover, I heard that Gu Mang was originally engaged to the Jiang family, but due to unforeseen circumstances, our Zhixing went to that village to recuperate from his injuries, and then..."

Huo Zhanhe quickly stopped talking, knowing that if he continued, he would inevitably bring up the plane crash.

"Anyway... that's basically it!" Huo Zhanhe smiled. "Dad, it was just a misunderstanding. Maybe Zhixing had never seen a woman from such a humble family before, and he was just looking for something new."

"Once we get rid of her, Zhixing will still be the most outstanding heir of our Huo family! Haha..."

This time, Huo Zhanhe's smile was genuine.

Eliminating Jiang Can would be tantamount to taking Huo Zhixing's life!

This tactic of striking at the heart is far more effective than tinkering with airplanes. Moreover, it's a case of using someone else to do the dirty work, since Huo Wenyuan also dislikes that woman!

The more Huo Zhanhe thought about it, the more he felt that he was really too smart.

“Dad,” he said with a smile, “Don’t worry, I’ve already found out where Jiang Can lives. She and Zhixing run a small coffee shop in Jiangzhou.”

"I'll send Gu Mang over right away. All you need to do is stop Zhixing!"

Huo Wenyuan looked up at him and smiled gently.

"Okay, I'll leave this to you. Do it quickly!"

"But what if Zhixing makes a scene later..." He had to consider the King of Hell in his family, after all, he didn't want to have a grave on Minghuang Mountain.

Huo Wenyuan said, "If Zhixing makes a fuss, I'll handle it!"

Huo Zhanhe had been waiting for these words, and after saying them, he chuckled and left.

"Book Gu Mang a flight immediately, a flight to Jiangzhou in two hours!" He immediately began making the arrangements.

"After he gets rid of Jiang Can..." Huo Zhanhe lowered his voice, "you guys find another opportunity to get rid of him!"

...

Before Huo Zhixing even reached the main gate of the house, he saw Uncle Cen come out of the mansion.

Is Grandpa feeling better?

"Much better," Cen Bo said, sounding a little guilty.

What did the doctor say?

“This…” Cen Bo didn’t know how to answer.

Sometimes he couldn't understand Huo Wenyuan's actions. Even if he wanted Huo Zhixing to take over the company's affairs, he could have just given a clear explanation. Why did he have to pretend to be sick?

Is it because they're afraid Huo Zhixing will leave Yangcheng again?

Even when he wasn't in the central city, Huo Zhixing still did a lot for the Huo family...

Uncle Cen shook his head and sighed.

"Young Master, the old chairman is probably getting old and his health is not as good as before, which also affects his mood. You should be more understanding of him."

"Okay." Huo Zhixing nodded. "I'll go in and check on him."

“The old chairman just went to sleep.” Uncle Cen handed him a stack of documents. “Before he went to sleep, he asked the third young master to review these documents and come back in the evening.”

"But didn't he just see my second uncle?"

Uncle Cen was taken aback. "The Second Master did come by, but he left after delivering the abalone and shark fin."

Huo Zhixing's brows furrowed slightly, sensing that something was amiss.

He stood outside for a while, then turned around and went back into the conference room.

Several business negotiations in a row left him somewhat exhausted.

He wanted to go to the lounge to lie down for a while, but at that moment he received an international long-distance call.

"Hey, son!" You could tell from the voice that the person on the other end was decisive and efficient.

Huo Zhixing chuckled, "Mom, why are you calling me at this hour?"

Judging by the time, it should be morning in London now. My mom holds an important position in the company, so it's impossible for her to have time to chat on the phone with him as soon as she gets to work.

"That's exactly what I wanted to ask you! Didn't you say you were sending me a fake son so I could take him down on the spot?"

"But it's been several days, where is he?"

Huo Zhixing frowned.

Logically speaking, Huo Zhanhe and Huo Zhiyan should have already taken action.

Huo Zhixing hung up the phone, a bad feeling creeping into his heart.

"Fang Han," he said in a deep voice, "what has Second Uncle been busy with these past few days?"

"It seems like he's always been serving the old chairman."

Where is Huo Zhiyan?

Before Fang Han could reply, Huo Zhixing's feeling of distress intensified.

He had never felt this way before, as if a piece of his heart had been ripped out.

He subconsciously dialed Jiang Can's number, but no one answered.

Huo Zhixing's face darkened, and he immediately made a decision: "Book plane tickets right away and go back to Jiangzhou!"

"But young master..."

"Don't you understand what I'm saying?!"

Huo Zhixing became inexplicably anxious, tugged hard at his tie, and his heart pounded.

...

In the evening, Jiang Can was preparing to close the coffee shop when she suddenly heard a noise at the courtyard gate.

She looked outside and saw a tall figure stepping into the courtyard. Jiang Can's heart leaped with joy, and she called out loudly, "Husband!"

The man's figure stiffened slightly.

He slowly raised his head; in the twilight, his face lacked any heroic spirit, and his eyes held a lewd glint.

However, this face looks too much like Huo Zhixing.

"Honey! Didn't you say you wouldn't be back for another week? Are you trying to surprise me again?"

Jiang Can ran over like a happy little bird and buried her face in his chest, hugging him tightly. However, the moment she hugged him, a strange feeling suddenly washed over her.

Jiang Can paused for a moment, then gently released her hand and carefully looked up at him.

This outfit wasn't something she brought for him.

His gaze was somewhat unfamiliar, but in the instant their eyes met, she clearly saw an ambiguous glint in his eyes... He brazenly looked her up and down, and the desire and wickedness in his eyes sent chills down her spine.

Jiang Can felt a chill run down her spine and involuntarily took two steps back.

After returning from a short separation, he would indeed have needs... but he would never look at her like that.

What's wrong with him?

Jiang Can's heart was pounding, and she forced a smile. "Honey, are you tired? Why don't you rest here for a while? I'll make you something to eat."

Gu Mang nodded and walked into the shop.

Jiang Can followed behind, subconsciously glancing outside the yard. Strange, hadn't he brought the car back?

And what about his luggage?

She has already changed his habit of wearing black clothes, and he usually dresses mainly in white and gray tones...

But why is he back in all black again today?

Jiang Can's mind was in turmoil. Her husband had changed inexplicably today, making her very uneasy.

"What are you standing there for?" Gu Mang turned around. "Aren't you coming in?"

Jiang Can was startled and ran over in small steps, tentatively taking his arm.

"Honey, do you...do you have a cold? Why is your voice hoarse?"
