If the old man hadn't dodged quickly, Huo Xuan'an would have already grabbed his leg.

The old man was one of the few remaining elders of the Huo family, known as Fifth Master. He was chubby with a kind face and always had a smile on his face. Huo Xuan'an didn't dare to make trouble with Huo Xuanxi, but seeing that he seemed easy to talk to, he started to pester him.

However, what Huo Xuan'an didn't know was that this Fifth Master looked like Maitreya Buddha, but his methods were those of Yama, the King of Hell—in the Huo family's secret passage, he was in charge of criminal law.

No one could keep a single secret from him.

Fifth Master clicked his tongue: "You brat, how did you offend your brother? Actually, Africa is quite good. It's developing well now. Going there for a few years would be good training."

Huo Xuan'an wiped away his tears and shook his head: "I don't know, I don't know. I'm a very good boy. I never dare to cause trouble with my brother. I do whatever my brother tells me to do. I'm a very good boy..."

Fifth Master looked down on Huo Xuan'an in the slightest.

But everyone in the Huo family knew that the head of the family was not interested in women.

Such a celibate, cold, and terrifying man would never marry, not in this lifetime. Of course, artificial insemination and surrogacy are even less likely... But the Huo family must have a direct descendant.

Fifth Master's plan is to adopt Huo Xuan'an's child, bring him home at birth, and raise him according to the standards of the family head's heir. He must keep the child away from Huo Xuan'an and prevent him from learning that scoundrel's temperament.

However, that doesn't mean he's of mixed African and African descent!

"Alright, I'll go have a chat with the head of the family. You better keep your head down and behave yourself."

Fifth Master shook his head, twirled the large Buddhist prayer beads on his wrist, and strolled off to find Huo Xuanxi.

The top floor of the Huo Group building, the president's office.

Huo Xuanxi sat at the table, his long, slender fingers with distinct knuckles lightly clicking on the mouse. His voice was cold and deep: "I want to use the internet to start tracking and blocking, erasing all traces of my computer usage and browsing information."

His expression was indifferent, his eyes were half-closed, the computer screen cast a faint white light, and his thick eyelashes cast deep shadows, making his features appear even more handsome and striking.

Vice President Lin instantly became serious, his brows furrowing: "Yes!"

Is it to improve the blueprints for the last rocket launcher? Is it to plan the next round of commercial expansion? Or are some underworld figures causing trouble again, and the boss needs to teach them a lesson?!

He immediately went out to arrange everything and considerately closed the door for Huo Xuanxi.

Huo Xuanxi glanced around; the office was empty, and the computer's tracking was disabled, so no one could know what his computer was about to search for.

Huo Xuanxi opened the browser with a serious expression.

He typed a line into the search bar, one word at a time.

What gift should I give a girl?

Vice President Lin returned to his office and had barely sat down when he received a call from his subordinate saying that Fifth Master had come to see the head of the family and was already downstairs.

He thought to himself, "What a coincidence! The patriarch is still busy. How can I interrupt him?"

Vice President Lin hesitated whether to call the family head on the internal line, but the phone rang first.

"..." The dignified and aloof patriarch said, "Do you know that the Huaying Auction is starting tomorrow?"

Vice President Lin scratched his head: "I've heard of it, what's wrong?"

"Send someone to the auction and get me that heart-shaped pink diamond that's the final piece up for auction."

"?"

"Then we found a master jeweler to make it into a necklace and rushed it out."

"?!"

"I need to see it within three days."

"??!!"

Vice President Lin looked stunned.
