In her previous life, she was a high-cold female CEO, suffering from a terminal illness. While doing charity, she encountered a mysterious space, and carrying billions of supplies, her soul transmi...
"Old man, let us protect you and leave. If you don't leave now, you will really be killed by that ambitious man. It would be great if the young master came back. With her superb skills, we can definitely turn the disadvantage around. Unfortunately, the young master is in Hong Kong now and doesn't know what happened here?" Black Spider looked at the old man in front of him and said seriously.
"Black Spider, are you telling the truth? Does that girl really have such great abilities that you admire her so much? Are you trying to please an old man like me?" Huo Wudi said seriously, looking at the Black Spider he had personally trained.
"Grandpa, how dare I lie to you? I'm not the only one who knows about this. You can ask Shadow and the Ghost Doctor, they all know it too. Grandpa, to be honest, if it weren't for the young master, the three of us would have died in China and never come back. We came back early this time to report this good news to you in person, but we didn't expect that person to launch a rebellion in advance and trap us here. It's really terrible." Black Spider said hatefully.
"Grandpa, Sister Black Spider, I have a feeling that the young master doesn't seem to have much intention of returning to the Huo family. And as far as I know, there is a very rich woman in Hong Kong, and her name is the same as the young master's. I have a very strong feeling that the richest woman in Hong Kong is the young master. If that is the case, will the young master still care about the Huo family's property?" The ghost doctor's words were like pouring a bucket of cold water, making the already cold scene quiet again.
Huo Wudi looked at the three people in front of him, feeling deeply moved. He sighed deeply and said, "To this day, I trust the character of the three of you. Besides, that girl Qiqi also needs help. I will tell you the truth. The Huo family is not as simple as you think. We have our own industries in many countries, but only the living heads of the family know about these industries and have the right to manage them. Even that bastard doesn't know about this. He put me under house arrest just to gain control of those companies. Unfortunately, I would rather die than give them to him."
"Big Sister Black Spider, I have a feeling that it won't be long before the young master will return to the Huo family and put an end to all this. This feeling is very strange, and I can't explain it. I believe that after the young master comes back and takes care of all this, everyone's life will return to normal. The days of being under house arrest are really too uncomfortable. I don't want to stay here for a single day. I want to go out and find a few people to have a good fight." Shadow said very depressed.
"You, a piece of wood, are just like the fortune teller, telling fortunes and saying that this feeling is very strange. I think you just think too much. If you have nothing to do, clean the house properly. Now such a big house depends on me and my elder sister to take care of it. You have more free time to lie on the roof and observe the movement. No, starting from tomorrow, I will go to the roof, and you stay in the house and clean with everyone."
Seeing the Ghost Doctor's expression as if he was going to prick him with a needle if he was upset, Shadow swallowed his saliva. Thinking back to the days when the Ghost Doctor used him as a guinea pig, Shadow said, "Brother Ghost Doctor, don't you just want to switch things up? That's easy. Starting tomorrow, you stay on the rooftop and I'll stay inside to clean up. Don't worry, it's no problem at all."
The ghost doctor glanced at the shadow, as if saying, "Boy, that's pretty good. You know when to advance and retreat."
After Huo Wudi left, the three of them gathered together again. Seeing Black Spider's worried expression, the Ghost Doctor asked in confusion, "Big Sister, weren't you very confident just now? Why are you like this now? Did you have a premonition? Or is that jerk about to make a move?"
"I don't know, but I have a strong feeling that if we can't find a way out of this predicament as soon as possible, we'll most likely fall prey to that bastard's murderous hands. It wouldn't matter if we died, but if the old patriarch died, our guilt would be enormous."
Seeing the Ghost Doctor's increasingly serious expression, Black Spider continued, "I really don't want to see so much of the Huo family's assets taken away by that bastard. Now I can only pin my hopes on the Young Master. I just don't know when he'll be able to come here. It would be great if I knew where to contact him, but unfortunately we can't do that right now. It's too much trouble."
Seeing Black Spider's bewildered look, Shadow stood up and said seriously, "Big Sister Black Spider, let me go out and see if I can find some outside help. I believe the old patriarch still has many trustworthy people after so many years. As long as we find them, the old patriarch's situation will improve. Then we can work together inside and outside to hold out until the young master arrives, and our property won't be taken away by that person."
Upon hearing Shadow's suggestion, Black Spider didn't respond immediately. Instead, he thought about it carefully and then replied uncertainly, "We have no idea Shadow's current situation. How many people are as steadfast on the old patriarch's side as we are? Although that bastard is shameless, he's very good at buying people off. If we entrust the wrong person, it will completely infuriate him, and he'll force the old patriarch to do what he wants. Then we really won't have any chance of turning the tables."
"Dad, why don't you just get rid of that old guy? That way, the entire Huo family will fall into the hands of us father and son. Then, whoever dares to go against us will be confused and speculated. We can just get rid of them. Wouldn't that be simpler? Being timid now is really not your style."
"You little brat, what do you know? Are you crazy? I've been planning this for so many years. Do you still care about waiting a few more days? The reason I didn't get rid of that old guy is because he controls all of the Huo family's global industries. How many of those industries are there? Where are they? I have no idea. If the old guy doesn't tell me willingly, I won't be able to get them all. So I'll wear down their spirits first, and then I'll deal with them properly in a few days."
"Son, you must remember that those assets represent a vast fortune. Whoever obtains them will instantly become one of the richest people in the world. If I could truly obtain them by getting rid of him, I would still keep him here. He is an eyesore. I tell you, you cannot make decisions about that old man without authorization. If I discover you doing anything that displeases me behind my back, I will expel you. You must understand that I do not know just one son."
When the young man saw his angry father, he immediately lowered his head, gritted his teeth secretly, and stars of anger burst out of his eyes.
After sending his son away, the second master of the Huo family, who was sitting in the upper seat, called the butler over and said, "Old butler, send someone to keep a close eye on the old man's affairs. We must not let Black Spider and the others escape. If they contact the old man's former subordinates and friends, we will be in a very passive position. Don't worry, I will definitely honor the conditions I promised you after this matter."
When the housekeeper heard what the second master of the Huo family said, he immediately said happily, "Okay, Master, don't worry, I know what to do. I will definitely not let you down. Just wait and see my good news."
After seeing the housekeeper leave, the second master of the Huo family laughed heartily. "You bunch of fence-sitters, now you know who's the boss. You looked down on me in the past, and now you're still living under my intimidation. When I get the old man's fortune, I'll definitely get rid of all of you. I do all these things in the Huo family, isn't it all for the Huo family's wealth? Victory is in sight, and I won't allow anyone to ruin my plan."
