Chapter 343 I Have No Other Choice But Her

The people who had just spoken looked at each other and then fell silent.

"If all of this is your reason, then fine, I'll give you an answer."

In the silence, Huo Yanmo spoke: "I like Shi Nian. It's not me choosing her now; it's me who went through all sorts of hardships to finally get her to nod and choose me."

“But young master, you could totally…”

"I have no other choice but her," Huo Yanmo interrupted him directly.

"She's fine, even better than you think."

"Without her, I wouldn't be who I am today."

Huo Yanmo's voice was devoid of emotion: "Since everyone has raised this question today, it's as if I've already informed you."

This is an announcement, not a discussion; there is absolutely no room for negotiation.

The group exchanged glances, and finally the bald middle-aged man spoke.

“Young Master, the Huo Group is not just your company. Your marital status is closely related to the Huo Group. You can’t be so willful.”

Huo Yanmo looked up and glanced at the other person.

The other party flinched slightly, but still insisted firmly, "Anyone is fine, but Shi Nian is not."

Huo Yanmo suddenly smiled.

His smile was always gentle and refined, but at this moment it sent chills down one's spine.

"So, you're going to introduce your niece to me?"

“I remember I already declined in private, but Director Xu, why did you send someone to persuade my mother?”

Director Xu's face stiffened, and he was speechless.

Everyone looked at him strangely.

Huo Yanmo still had a smile on his face.

He said, "If you all feel that I am unfit to be the president of the Huo Group because of my marital problems, then fine, I will step down."

The crowd was shocked, and some people even began to communicate openly or secretly with their eyes or their phones.

But Huo Yanmo still had a smile on his face.

He quietly observed all of this, watching the undercurrents swirling within these people.

He's seen plenty of things like this in his twenty-odd years of life.

About five minutes passed like this.

Suddenly someone realized what was going on.

"Young Master, what about shipping and the origins of minerals around the world..."

Huo Yanmo's smile remained gentle.

He said, "Of course I'm taking my own things with me."

The crowd immediately erupted in uproar.

"That won't do, young master. The Huo family's ability to stand firm in City A is inseparable from its shipping and global production bases. Without these, we would have to pay extremely high costs!"

"Young Master, you are also a member of the Huo family, you can't be so ungrateful!"

"Yes, young master, if we separate these things out, we'll soon no longer be one of the three giants in City A!"

Amidst the chatter of the crowd, Huo Yanmo remained calm and composed.

He listened calmly to these words, then lowered his smile and stopped laughing.

He said, "So you guys know how important these things are too."

The three giants of City A were all originally in traditional industries. Later, the Lu family, led by Lu Yanzhi, transformed into a tech upstart. The Fu family engaged in internal strife while expanding into new industries, such as the entertainment industry under Fu Jinyan's control. The Huo family, on the other hand, competed with each other by relying on globalized industries and luxury goods.

Although the Lu family is the leader of the three giants, the three families actually check and balance each other, and the Lu family does not have a significant lead or absolute dominance.

The reason why Shi Yichen almost became the fourth largest financial giant was because finance is a wealth amplifier.

Regardless of which company Shi Yichen has a deep partnership with, he can directly break the current situation of the three companies vying for power.

It's a pity that Shi Yichen died.

Things at sea are inherently extremely dangerous; at any moment, you could be thrown into an unknown sea area and drowned, leaving no trace of your body.

The competition for global gemstone mines is even more brutal.

So nobody cares about these messes, because life is more important; if you die, you'll have money but no life to spend it.

The Huo family had once declined and was almost kicked out of the three major powers. It was Huo Yanmo who forcibly put everything back together and led the Huo family to a revival.

In the meeting room, no one dared to utter a sound.

How could they not know the importance of these things?

They were also very clear that Huo Yanmo was only including them in the group because he still considered them part of the Huo family.

Otherwise, given Huo Yanmo's current methods and power, he could easily throw them off and create a new company.

It won't be long before it becomes a new giant and crushes the current Huo family.

It's not that Huo Yanmo needs the Huo family, but rather that the Huo family needs Huo Yanmo.

"So, can we now proceed with my marriage proposal?" Huo Yanmo glanced at everyone present.

No one spoke.

"Any further objections?" Huo Yanmo continued to ask.

Still, no one dared to utter a sound.

"Very well, meeting adjourned." After saying this, Huo Yanmo stood up and walked out of the conference room first.

After Huo Yanmo and his men left, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

They looked at each other without saying a word.

After a long while, someone finally spoke up and asked, "Director Xu, why didn't you tell us about introducing your niece to the young master?"

A balding middle-aged man wipes his forehead.

"It didn't work out, did it?" Director Xu muttered, still angry. He added, "Speaking of which, Shi Nian really has some tricks up her sleeve. Lu Yanzhi does too, and so does the eldest young master. I heard that Fu San also had some feelings for her before. I wonder what kind of bewitching drug she used."

"Cough cough..."

Before Director Xu could finish speaking, a cough was heard.

Director Xu looked up in alarm and saw Huo Junhui standing at the door.

"I just got back," Huo Junhui said with a smile. "I heard there was a big show just now."

Everyone denied it, saying that each of the three members of the Huo family was difficult to deal with.

"I advise you not to cause trouble in front of Shi Nian," Huo Junhui continued, her tone threatening. "She's my future sister-in-law, understand?"

Everyone nodded repeatedly, vying to make their promises.

Huo Junhui then turned and left, satisfied.

As she walked along, people greeted her.

Finally, Huo Junhui arrived at a dim sum shop downstairs.

I saw Huo Yanmo picking out snacks to bring to Shi Nian and Si Si.

She smiled and said, "Brother."

Huo Yanmo nodded, but didn't look at her, and continued choosing.

Huo Junhui complained about a lot of those people.

She added, "They're really something. So many people like Shi Nian because she's a good person. Lu's Group's successful transformation is thanks to her risking her life. Fu San's good relationship with her is also due to their collaboration. Before, Fu San could barely survive at home, but after collaborating with Shi Nian, he has a voice. And then there's my brother. Back then at sea, if it weren't for her..."

Huo Yanmo glanced at Huo Junhui and told her to stop talking.

Too many people, too many opinions.

Before the cause of Shi Yichen's death is determined, the relationship between the Shi family and him cannot be exposed.
