Chapter 255: The Villain’s Tool Aunt (1)

After Zhao Yicheng appeased his agent, half a month later, he really took Lin Shichu and Chuyi to the capital. The agent was so happy that he didn't even want Zhao Yicheng, the formal boss, and chased after Chuyi. He even got Zhao Yicheng a pet variety show and made Chuyi a celebrity cat, attracting thousands of cat lovers who clamored for Chuyi's photos and videos on Zhao Yicheng's social platform.

Lin Shichu has completely fallen into depravity. Lin Shiyu feels sorry for her for having worked so hard to support the family and the company in the past few years, so he supports her without any regrets and earns money for her to spend, as if he wants to compensate her completely.

Of course, she herself is actually very rich. After Jiawo Company developed the smart home products, she, as an investor, became a billionaire overnight. She can make money just by lying down. Her daily life is either eating, drinking and having fun, or being intimate with Zhao Yichen.

Zhao Yicheng even reduced his filming work to accompany Lin Shichu. He probably couldn't shoot one movie a year. He would only shoot a movie if he really liked the script and was demanding enough to make it perfect. Therefore, even though he shot less frequently, he was still evergreen in the film industry and became a legend. I wonder how many younger generations wanted to be the next him.

Everyone has a beautiful and hopeful future. As for the protagonists like Ye Congjian and Wen Chuyu? They have nothing to do with Lin Shichu.

"My dear daughter, just promise your mother to marry Zhou Wenye. The company really can't afford any more turmoil right now. Just do this so that your father can rest in peace, okay?" A somewhat old female voice sounded beside Shi Chu's ears.

When Shi Chu opened his eyes, he saw an old lady in rich clothes and with neatly combed hair, looking at him pleadingly.

Shi Chu blinked, and in an instant, the original owner's memories flooded into her mind. She immediately understood the situation, so she shook her head and said firmly to the old lady: "Mom, I'm sorry, I won't marry Zhou Wenye. The company is in turmoil, so be it. Anyway, it's not mine."

"You!" The old lady's face suddenly became ferocious. She obviously didn't expect her daughter to refuse her request. You know, her daughter is the most filial to her. Basically, her daughter will listen to whatever she says. She just wants to be an obedient and sensible daughter to please her.

But now, she dared to reject me so confidently? Mrs. Huo's face changed, and she stared at Huo Shichu angrily and said, "The company is your father's life's work. Can you bear to watch it go bankrupt? I just want you to marry Zhou Wenye to stabilize the company. Why don't you want to? Is this how you are filial to me?"

"Mom, don't avoid the important issue. I only own 5% of the company, and you want me to sacrifice my lifelong marriage for this company that is destined not to belong to me? If Dad's hard work is to go bankrupt so easily, then let it go bankrupt. Even if the company is gone, our family is still bigger than a lean camel. If we live frugally, although we cannot guarantee wealth and glory, we can live a peaceful life. Don't be too greedy." Huo Shichu looked at Mrs. Huo calmly and said in a flat tone.

"Aunt, how can you say that? Grandma is doing this for your own good. Uncle Zhou is handsome and talented. He is a rare young talent and a perfect match for you. How can you misunderstand grandma's kindness?" A fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy with a youthful look on his face supported Grandma Huo and said to Huo Shichu with a look of disapproval.

Huo Shichu narrowed his eyes. This boy was the original owner's nephew Huo Zheng. Although he was young, he had grown into a handsome and outstanding young man like a tall pine tree. No wonder he was the male protagonist of this world.

"Nephew, don't try to fool me with these words. We both know that you and mom just want to use my marriage to tie Zhou Wenye down so that he and I can work hard for the company before you grow up. You've become something. You're already scheming against your elders at such a young age." Huo Shichu said sarcastically to Huo Zheng.

"No! I didn't. How could you think of me like that, Auntie?" Huo Zheng hadn't grown up yet. When Huo Shichu exposed his shameful thoughts, he blushed with shame. He didn't even have the confidence to defend himself, and it was obvious that he was guilty.

Mrs. Huo was not as shy as he was. Even though her daughter had revealed the truth, she remained calm and looked at Huo Shichu coldly. She even threw away her fig leaf and said, "Since you know everything, you should understand my painstaking efforts. If you still consider me your mother, then you should listen to me and marry Zhou Wenye. Otherwise... you are not the daughter of my Huo family!"

She tore her face off and started threatening Huo Shichu.

Is Huo Shichu someone who will be threatened by her? Of course not, so she nodded and said, "Since I'm not your daughter if I don't get married, then okay, from today on, I'm no longer your daughter of the Huo family. Goodbye!"

After she finished speaking, she turned and left. Old Mrs. Huo looked at her from behind in disbelief and said angrily, "If you dare to leave the house today, don't regret it in the future! Don't come back even if you die outside!"

"Don't worry, I won't come back." Huo Shichu turned his head and said to her softly.

Not long after, Huo Shichu found all his ID photos, took only a few sets of ordinary clothes, and went downstairs.

In the living room, Mrs. Huo stared at her fiercely as if she wanted to bite her to death, while Huo Zheng said to her with a worried look on his face: "Aunt, you should apologize to grandma quickly! How can you just walk away?"

Huo Shichu patted his face and said, "Good nephew, you should be happy that your aunt no longer competes with you for the family property. By the way, this time your aunt will not be so stupid as to sacrifice her marriage to keep your company. You have to rely on yourself..."

After saying that, she giggled and walked out of the Huo family's door, leaving Huo Zheng with a stiff expression.

Huo Shichu found a hotel to stay in. Now that she had left the Huo family, she needed to make some plans for the future.

Speaking of which, the original owner had a miserable life in her previous life. Just after she graduated from college, her father suddenly died of a serious illness. Besides her, there were only her young nephew and elderly mother left in the family, and her eldest brother and sister-in-law died in a plane crash a few years ago.

The person in charge of the company passed away suddenly, leaving no reliable successor. The other directors then started making trouble and wanted to change the name of the Huo family's company.

How could Mrs. Huo be willing to watch her own company become someone else's? She wanted to leave it to her precious grandson!

In desperation, she thought of a "good idea", which was to let her younger daughter marry her husband's trusted subordinate Zhou Wenye, and at the same time, her younger daughter would move into the company. Zhou Wen would also become a member of the Huo family and would naturally loyally assist her younger daughter in stabilizing the company. In this way, the company would not be snatched away by other directors with ulterior motives.

After a few years, when grandson Huo Zheng grows up, his daughter and Zhou Wen can "retire from their duties" and return the company to their grandson.

Old Mrs. Huo had beautiful dreams, but the reality was that not everything could go as she wished.
