Chapter 208 Utilization

Huo Siya's expression changed as she looked at Huo Qibang's serious expression, and she said in a sullen voice, "Brother, what are you saying? How have I been disrespectful or bad to Mother? This is my first press conference, which is so important to me, and Mother refuses to come back. I really don't understand what Mother is thinking, what's going on?"

Seeing Huo Siya's unreasonable behavior, Huo Qibang felt a headache coming on. Before this, Fang Lanxin had taken care of all of Huo Siya's emotions, so the relationship between the two siblings had always been very good. But now Fang Lanxin no longer cared about their affairs, so even Huo Qibang couldn't stand Huo Siya's unreasonable behavior.

"Ya Ya, we've all grown up now. Mom's very busy, so it's okay if she can't come."

"Isn't my presence enough?"

Huo Qibang looked at Huo Siya helplessly.

Although she was really dissatisfied, seeing Huo Qibang's impatient expression, Huo Siya didn't dare to say anything more and could only nod reluctantly. Then she said sullenly, "Fine, fine, since you've said so, what can I do? I won't say anything more, okay?"

In any case, nobody in this family cares about her!

Huo Siya rolled her eyes at Huo Qibang and strode outside.

Huo Wen felt a pang of sadness seeing Huo Siya like this. He sighed and said, "The young lady is still as willful and capricious as ever. I wonder when she'll ever grow up."

"She'll never grow up." Huo Qibang rolled his eyes, clearly a little impatient.

Seeing Huo Qibang's angry expression, Huo Wen smiled and said, "Miss is still young, she will get better in time, so don't worry about it. Our financing plan is about to start. The old men at the old mansion are making a lot of noise. Why don't you go and take a look? If any scandals break out in the family at this time, it won't do us any good."

The mere mention of this made Huo Qibang's head spin. After thinking for a moment, he decided to call Fang Lanxin.

"Mom, I'm planning to start my first round of financing, and I'm ready to take the company to the next level." Huo Qibang stated his purpose directly after answering the phone.

Fang Lanxin certainly wouldn't disagree with this matter, so she directly said, "You can make your own decisions about company matters. I can't interfere with you. You can do whatever you want."

“But if the financing officially begins, the unity of the Huo family will be especially important. If there is any trouble at the old house, it will not be good for us either. Mother, what should we do about this?” Huo Qibang asked with some difficulty.

An old house?

Fang Lanxin's eyebrows furrowed tightly as she immediately understood Huo Qibang's meaning. It was mainly because she had already broken ties with the old family home, so if she wanted to go back and apologize to maintain the so-called peace, she would have to pay a heavy price.

Huo Qibang didn't want to pay this price, which is why he came to tell Fang Lanxin; the core purpose was to make things difficult for her.

This child is just as selfish as he was in his previous life. He seems fine most of the time, but when it comes to his own core interests, he becomes a completely different person.

Although Fang Lanxin had long been used to Huo Qibang's behavior, she still felt uneasy thinking about it now. Instead of going along with it as before, or choosing to keep it a secret, she directly asked, "So what do you expect me to do now that you're telling me this?"

Originally, Huo Qibang thought Fang Lanxin would understand what he meant, but he never expected that she would ask him this question in the end.

Some things are better understood than said; if you were to say them directly, Fok Kai-pong simply couldn't do it.

He took a deep breath and then said helplessly, "Mom, I just don't know what to do, that's why I'm calling you. Can you help me think of something?"

"You are the president of the Huo Group and the head of the Huo family, so you should have the final say on family matters and company matters."

"that's all."

Fang Lanxin hung up the phone without hesitation.

Huo Qibang was truly dumbfounded. He stared in disbelief at the phone that had been hung up on him, his eyebrows furrowed tightly. He then sighed helplessly, "Mom is really becoming more and more independent. She really does say she doesn't care about me anymore."

"Young Master Bang, Madam is probably in a precarious situation herself and is very busy, which is why she is like this."

"How about we take a trip to the old house?"

Huo Wen stepped forward and tentatively began to speak.

“If we go to the old house now, with Mom and the people there having such a mess, who knows what kind of treatment we'll get? I think we should wait a bit longer.” Huo Qibang sighed helplessly, “Alright, let’s go back to the company first!”

After hanging up the phone, Fang Lanxin's face turned very pale, and she sat quietly in her chair.

Guan Er, who was standing to the side, frowned as he looked at Fang Lanxin and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, just some trivial matter concerning the Huo family."

"Neither of my two children is easy to deal with, so it seems I still have to go back."

No matter how tough she spoke, Fang Lanxin just couldn't bear to see her children being mistreated. As a mother, she always wanted to do more for her children.

Upon hearing this, Guan Er was somewhat surprised and looked at Fang Lanxin in disbelief before saying, "Didn't you say before that you didn't want to get involved in these two people's affairs anymore? Why do you want to go back now?"

“I’m not doing this for them, I’m doing this for the gentleman.”

"No one can destroy the Huo Group. It is the culmination of Mr. Huo's life's work, and I must protect it!"

As Fang Lanxin spoke these words, a faint sadness and longing appeared in her eyes.

After seeing the longing in Fang Lanxin's eyes, Guan Er felt as if something had stabbed his heart.

His eyebrows were furrowed tightly as he stared at Fang Lanxin: "For him, you'd do anything, even risk your life, is that right?"

"yes!"

Fang Lanxin answered frankly and openly.

Whether in the past or now, her feelings for her husband have never changed. He is the most important person in her life. It is only because of him that Fang Lanxin has not taken extreme measures against her two children.
