Chapter 440 Testing Assistant Jiang
Huo Cheng clenched his fists tightly.
If I had known he would be like this, I wouldn't have agreed to his request!
But he also knew that there was no point in saying these things now. The most important thing was to persuade Huo Sinian to give him the power. Without the power, his life would be controlled and manipulated by others, just like in the past.
"I don't need any more, just give me back the small portion that doesn't affect you."
Huo Sinian did not answer.
Huo Cheng added, "Even if it's only half of what was promised back then."
“Retirement should be done like retirement.” Huo Sinian looked at him. “If other elders knew that you’ve clearly retired, and I’m still bothering you with things, wouldn’t they think I’m unfilial?”
Huo Cheng suppressed his anger: "No one will say anything about you."
"Just because you don't say it doesn't mean you don't think it." Huo Sinian responded calmly. "The news of Zhi Zhou's amnesia has only just spread in the industry. If I were to make a scene about being unfilial at this time, wouldn't that put the Huo Group in dire straits?"
After a few words.
Huo Cheng understood that Huo Sinian was determined not to relinquish power to him.
He stared at him, his eyes like a hawk's: "Aren't you afraid that next time the president is elected, I'll have your uncles and elders vote for Zhizhou?"
"Do as you please," Huo Sinian said casually. "As long as you can persuade them."
Huo Cheng's pupils contracted.
One sentence made him understand everything.
No wonder Huo Sinian has been so busy lately; he's been busy removing Zhi Zhou's people and bringing those who originally belonged to him back to his side.
Huo Sinian.
That's quite a scheme.
Seeing that he had come to his senses, Huo Sinian made his point clear: "As long as you don't do anything reckless or cause trouble, I can guarantee you a comfortable life for the rest of your days."
After saying that, he left without lingering and with his secretary.
Huo Cheng was furious.
He went back to Qiao Shuyun and threw a huge tantrum.
After posting, she didn't forget to criticize Qiao Shuyun: "Look at the children you gave birth to! One after another, they're all going against me! If they had listened to me back then, would they be as arrogant as they are now?"
“If we had listened to you back then, Zhizhou and Si Nian would have run away from home long ago.” Since Huo Zhizhou lost his memory, Qiao Shuyun has become more and more like a mother.
Gone is the selfishness and snobbery of the past; she begins to try to consider Huo Sinian and Huo Zhizhou's thoughts.
But they were an exception when it came to their marriage.
"I'd rather they ran away from home," Huo Cheng said angrily, "so they wouldn't be thinking about my rights all the time."
Seeing that he still showed no remorse, Qiao Shuyun stopped interfering.
She is quite satisfied with her current life. Zhi Zhou has forgotten everything from the past and has begun to get closer to her. She can also make up for the hurt she caused him in the past.
As for Si Nian...
Let him do what he wants.
Zhizhou has been working hard for so many years, it wouldn't hurt for him to take a break.
Huo Sinian didn't care about their thoughts at all.
After leaving the Huo family's old house, he first went to where Jiang Yu and the others were.
A week after Huo Zhizhou woke up, he had them moved back and arranged for them to stay in one of his villas in the suburbs.
When he arrived, the three of them were taking turns playing tennis in the open space outside.
Seeing him arrive, Jiang Yu wiped the sweat from his brow and handed him the racket: "President Huo, it's a rare treat for you to come all this way, how about a game?"
"Mr. Huo?"
Huo Sinian repeated the title, his eyes revealing a meaningful look.
"I heard you've taken over the company and become the new CEO of the Huo Group." Jiang Yu put his racket aside; although he wasn't wearing a suit, his air of a business elite was still there. "If I don't call you CEO Huo, what should I call you?"
Huo Sinian smiled slightly, a slight curve to his lips.
He wasn't surprised that Jiang Yu knew; it wasn't a secret. With so many people guarding them, it would be easy for them to find out. He was just surprised that Jiang Yu would actually call him President Huo.
"Now that you know I've taken over the Huo Group, you should also understand that as an employee of the Huo Group, you are required to obey the president's orders."
"I know." Jiang Yu nodded. "You mean you're planning to have me work for you?"
Huo Sinian looked at him with a probing gaze.
Jiang Yu appeared relaxed and spoke naturally: "I'm fine on my end. I can be on duty anytime the company needs me. But you, are you comfortable letting me go out?"
Huo Sinian's eyes held a deep warmth and amusement.
He didn't mince words, stating simply, "Of course I'm worried."
As Huo Zhizhou's most capable assistant, if Jiang were to start working at the Huo Group, there was no guarantee that nothing would go wrong. To ensure everything went smoothly, he had no choice but to...
"That's why I'm here to deliver your termination notice."
“I understand.” Jiang Yu wasn’t surprised at all, only concerned with one question: “Was the compensation adequate?”
"Aren't you going to fight for yourself?" Huo Sinian didn't expect him to not hesitate at all.
Jiang Yu took the coat from the bystander and put it on, still looking calm: "You'll give it to me if I try?"
Huo Sinian: "It's not impossible."
Jiang Yu: "Then please don't fire me?"
Huo Sinian smiled.
Jiang Yu also smiled.
The two did not talk much, but they both knew that they could not get anything done by just talking on the surface.
"You two have fun first." Huo Sinian said this to Lin Bei and Lin Feng, then turned his gaze to Jiang Yu and said in a calm tone, "I have something to discuss with Assistant Jiang."
Lin Bei and Lin Feng did not speak.
Until they went some distance.
Lin Feng leaned close to Lin Bei's ear and whispered, "Did Huo Sinian call Jiang Yu over to torture him? Should we go help him?"
"How can I help?" Lin Bei's gaze swept over the group of bodyguards surrounding the villa. "Can you beat them?"
"How will you know if you don't try?" Lin Feng was an honest and sincere man. "Are you scared?"
"Don't worry, Huo Sinian just doesn't want us to go out and cause trouble. It won't result in anyone getting killed." Lin Bei watched their figures disappear around the corner. "At most, it's just a matter of financial incentives."
After Jiang Yu followed Huo Sinian down to the living room, the latter sat down on the sofa first and then gestured to Jiang Yu: "Sit down."
Jiang Yu sat next to him.
“I know you’re not afraid of being fired. If you’re frugal, the severance pay will be enough to support you for the rest of your life.” Huo Sinian looked at him, his hands clasped together on his lap. “But once you’ve been in a high position for a long time, you never want to step down.”
Jiang smiled but remained silent.
Huo Sinian raised his narrow eyes slightly: "You've been by Zhizhou's side for so many years, you should have a deep understanding of this."
"Yes." Jiang Yu did not deny it.
Although he was the boss's special assistant, all the senior executives treated him with great respect. In a sense, he held a high position and wielded considerable power within the company.
"I can spare your job, but you have to tell me what Zhizhou told you before I took him away." Even though he had gotten what he was supposed to get during this time, the things Zhizhou said before his memory was erased still made him uneasy.
His younger brother is too smart.
He was so clever that even after his memories were erased, he still couldn't live up to Lu Er's words of reassurance.
“I did hope that the BOSS would tell us something meaningful,” Jiang Yu said, his words perfectly tactful. “But you came too fast. Lin Bei and I were caught on our way to run some errands.”
Huo Sinian thought for a moment.
That's true.
"Did he tell Lin Feng?"
"Do you think that's possible?" Jiang Yu asked rhetorically.
impossible.
This was Huo Sinian's first reaction.
He had met Lin Feng before; he was too stubborn and couldn't think straight. Zhi Zhou wouldn't trust him with such an important matter.
But if there was no plan, how could Jiang Yu and the others be so calm? Since they were imprisoned, they have not had any thought of escaping, and have even given up and given up.
