Central City, a private club.
Huo Zhanhe sipped his tea for a long time, glancing at Gu Mang standing in front of him from time to time, his fleshy face revealing a contemptuous expression.
Huo Zhiyan smiled smugly, raised her eyebrows, and said, "Dad, what do you think of my idea?"
"With this man, we can eliminate Huo Zhixing without anyone noticing. He will be our puppet, and the Huo family will be yours for the taking!"
"Heh." Huo Zhanhe chuckled dryly, waved his hand, and ordered someone to take Gu Mang away.
"If you arrest this guy, who will know?"
"They're all my people! You can rest assured!" Huo Zhiyan fiddled with the amber bead string in his hand, his legs crossed high.
Huo Zhanhe hated his arrogant attitude the most!
Arrogance inevitably leads to great losses. In the Huo family, only by keeping a low profile can one secure a place and find opportunities to eliminate those one desires!
He got angry and swung his cane at Huo Zhiyan's leg!
"Sit down properly!" He rolled his eyes a few times. "You dare act like this in front of your father!"
Huo Zhiyan dared not speak out in anger, so he could only sit up straight and look at his father with a puzzled expression.
"What's wrong with you again?" You've probably been mistreated by the old man again.
"What else can I do?" Huo Zhanhe glared at him. "You're so stupid!"
"I……"
"Huo Zhiyan, your grandfather is neither deaf nor blind, and at his age, he's even more robust than me! Do you really think you can fool everyone by creating a fake Huo Zhixing?"
Huo Zhanhe sighed heavily, "Huo Zhixing needs to be eliminated, but not by this method! You need to find a legitimate way..."
"A plane crash?" Huo Zhiyan scoffed. "Dad, the plane crash didn't kill him last time. That kid's too tough! So we have to kill him directly to eliminate any future trouble!"
"But what about your grandfather..."
Huo Zhiyan blurted out, "Let Grandpa go with him!"
Huo Zhanhe's eyes widened instantly as he stared at him in disbelief, his face turning bright red.
"What did you say? You even schemed against my father?!"
Huo Zhanhe slammed his fist on the table with a deafening roar, then swung his cane at him.
"Oh, Dad, listen to me!" Huo Zhiyan cried out in a panic. "Grandpa doesn't like you anyway, so why are you still worried about father-son relations! He's so biased, your uncle is inferior to you in every way, yet you always suffer from his temper! You might as well take this opportunity to..."
"Shut up!" Huo Zhanhe roared, his voice trembling with fear. "How could I have given birth to such an unfilial brat like you?"
"I'm doing this for you, Dad! Don't you want the Huo family business?"
"Ha, I think that's what you're thinking!" Huo Zhanhe gritted his teeth. "If you ever don't like me, do you want to kill me too?"
"dad……"
"Get out! Get out! Get out!" Huo Zhanhe was annoyed just looking at him. "Huo Zhiyan, I'm warning you, if you keep going like this, not only will you die a horrible death, but I'll be dragged down with you too!"
Huo Zhiyan was unconvinced and kept rolling her eyes.
"Those people you've hired are all gangsters, don't think I don't know!" Huo Zhanhe continued, "I don't think those people are reliable. Who knows, one day you might get sold out and be helping them count the money!"
Is Huo Wenyuan someone you can easily mess with? If you did, wouldn't the world be thrown into chaos?
A family in chaos would do them no good; without a leader, who knows what trouble that would cause? With Huo Zhanhe's abilities, he simply couldn't seize power.
It would be better to curry favor with the old man, then secretly deal with Huo Zhixing, so that the old man would have no choice but to hand over the Huo family business to his branch.
"Huo Zhiyan..." Huo Zhanhe let out a long sigh of relief, "Without my order, you are not allowed to act rashly, do you understand?"
"Also, hide Gu Mang well, don't let anyone see him! Contact the British side in the next couple of days."
Huo Zhanhe sneered, a malicious glint in his eyes.
The slush fund set up by Huo Zhixing's maternal grandfather for Huo Zhixing requires facial recognition, and the land in the western suburbs of Yangcheng has been shelved due to a lack of funding.
Perhaps Gu Mang's face will come in handy someday!
...
Jiang Can was led by the hand by Huo Zhixing all the way to the Emperor Hotel.
Even after entering the luxurious suite on the top floor, she still felt like she was in a dream, looking around at everything in a daze.
"Husband? This..."
"This is what I'm giving you as a bonus." Huo Zhixing hugged her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder. "The wedding is over, and next... should be our wedding night."
They didn't get to spend their wedding night together, so they have to make up for it this time.
"You..." Jiang Can's eyes widened at the sight of the luxurious suite.
She turned sharply to look at him, her big eyes full of confusion, "You won the lottery? How much did you win tonight?!"
Huo Zhixing was taken aback, then chuckled.
This doesn't sound like a bride asking.
"Tell me quickly!" Jiang Can punched him, "How much is it per night?!"
"Well... I don't know either." His gaze was full of affection. "I went to a competition a few days ago and won a prize, but I didn't tell you."
"Did you use your bonus to pay for the house?"
"Um."
Jiang Can gasped.
She knew his prize money was substantial!
This is all gone and ended up in this luxury suite... It really hurts!
Huo Zhixing couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at her. He wrapped his strong arms around her, and his large hands began to roam freely over her body...
"Honey, are you worried about the money?" he teased her.
Jiang Can glanced at him, her face slightly flushed.
"Since you think it's expensive, then we should hurry up and get down to business!"
"Um?"
Before Jiang Can could react, he pushed her onto the bed.
The bed was soft, and the man suddenly pounced on her, making her feel like she was sinking into it.
A slight smile played on his lips, his eyes burning with desire, as his large hand reached inside and skillfully unfastened her clasp...
"You did this on purpose, didn't you?" Jiang Can scolded playfully, "Choosing such an expensive place..."
“Yes,” he said in a hoarse voice, teasing her, “so if we don’t come a few more times, it’ll be a waste of the room fee! Right, honey?”
Jiang Can bit her lip, "If you're so capable, then don't stop tonight!"
The man's eyes lit up. "Did you say that?"
Jiang Can's face was flushed, she pursed her lips and smiled mischievously, her doe eyes sparkling and charming.
"Wife," Huo Zhixing chuckled softly, "Am I the kind of person... who stops easily?"
