Huang Ling is overweight and has high blood pressure. She stayed up all night, so it's good for her to go home and rest.
Why did Huang Ruo go back too?
They're really spoiled and can't stand any hardship.
Old Mrs. Huo was not feeling well.
"There was a lot going on at the company today, and my uncle couldn't get away. His secretary kept calling to urge him, so he left first."
Grandma Huo nodded, "Yes."
There are a lot of things to do at the company, and some of them are indeed difficult to pass the buck.
"Qizhen, Yunzhen, you two should go to the company quickly! There are doctors and nurses here to take care of things."
Before anyone could speak, Xu Niannian had already made arrangements, "Tingzhen, go ahead and get busy! I'll take care of things here."
An outsider drove away all the people with the surname Huo and stayed behind to keep the old lady company. Huo Yunzhen gave her a deep look. Xu Niannian really didn't treat herself as an outsider.
Huo Tingzhen said, "Nothing at the company is as important as my grandma. I canceled all my work this morning and I'm staying at the hospital with her. It's just that my brother's work is a bit tricky, so I can only postpone it by half a day."
When people get old, sick, or injured, they want to see their children and grandchildren by their side when they wake up.
Grandma Huo was quite satisfied with the arrangements made by her children and grandchildren. "Tingzhen and Niannian can stay here. Qizhen, hurry up and get busy! Your uncle still needs your help."
The old lady still has her eye on Huang Ling's company, which infuriates Xu Que and Huo Yunzhen.
Even Old Mrs. Huo had never been this generous to them.
Just because Old Mrs. Huo is so concerned, Xu Que feels that he has to make sure Huang Ling's company is gone.
Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to swallow this insult.
That's too biased.
Huo Yunzhen clenched his fists and placed them behind his back.
From childhood to adulthood, he, the eldest grandson of the Huo family, received treatment that was worse than that of Huang Ling, an outsider.
Grandma Huo ate something, and soon became drowsy again.
They waited until she was fast asleep before daring to move around.
Kenneth Fok went to the company.
Xu Que accompanied Huo Yunzhen outside.
In the elevator, Huo Yunzhen asked in a deep voice, "Mom, what do you think of Xu Niannian's way of handling things?"
Xu Que said, "That's great! Look, you've managed to smooth things over just now."
Huo Yunzhen sneered, "It's quite good. They've taken all my jobs, and in front of Grandma, they act more attentive than us grandchildren."
"..." Xu Que, "Has he been stealing your job every year?"
"She and Huo Tingzhen have completely taken up both sides of Grandma's bed. If I want to get closer to Grandma, I have to wait for them to give up their spots. Huo Tingzhen is one thing, after all, she's a granddaughter. But what right does Xu Niannian have? Huo Qizhen and I, two members of the Huo family, are still in the hospital. What does it mean that she's taking our places?"
Xu Niannian lives in the Huo family year-round, so naturally she has to please Old Madam Huo, especially when Huo Tingzhen is around, she must make a good impression.
Xu Que never felt that there was anything wrong with Xu Niannian's behavior.
Now, hearing Huo Yunzhen's complaints, she belatedly realized that Xu Niannian's performance was a bit too good.
When the old lady woke up, she wanted to go forward as well, but Xu Niannian took the bedside spot first.
Without much thought, she stood to the left of Xu Niannian.
Xu Niannian smoothed things over and explained things to the old lady, who still thought Xu Niannian was smart and capable.
Her thought was simply that as long as Huo Qizhen and Huo Tingzhen didn't gain the upper hand, that would be fine.
Anyway, Xu Niannian is one of their own.
At this moment, she suddenly realized that Xu Niannian was only concerned with showing off herself, and not only did she steal Huo Qizhen and Huo Yunzhen's chance to perform, but she also stole Huo Yunzhen's chance to perform.
It's a bit much that her three grandchildren combined don't show the same level of care as an outsider like her.
Although Xu Que was angry, he still spoke up for Xu Niannian.
"Niannian probably didn't mean it. She was probably trying to make a good impression and didn't realize the importance of boundaries."
"If it wasn't intentional, then it was deliberate."
Xu Niannian used to have to rely on Xu Que, but now that she wants to become the young mistress of the Huo family conglomerate, Xu Que's opinion is no longer important. She must please Old Madam Huo to have any hope.
Xu Que still couldn't believe that her niece, whom she had raised herself, would want to surpass her and try to prove herself.
But Huo Yunzhen was angry, so she could only try to persuade her gently.
"I'll have a good talk with Niannian later, so please don't be angry."
Huo Yunzhen ignored her and left angrily.
When Xu Que returned to the ward, she found Xu Niannian thoughtfully wiping the old lady's fingers with a wet wipe.
It turned out the old lady had been woken up by the pain.
Huo Tingzhen came over with a piece of cut fruit, picked up a piece with a toothpick, and fed it to the old lady.
Xu Niannian said, "Tingzhen, it would be better if the apples were cut into smaller pieces."
Xu Que peeked out and saw that the apple pieces were the right size.
Huo Tingzhen ignored her and fed her another piece.
Grandma Huo ate two pieces and then stopped.
Xu Niannian quickly grabbed a tissue and wiped Old Mrs. Huo's mouth.
After Huo Tingzhen put down the plate, picked up a tissue, and turned around, Old Mrs. Huo had already wiped her mouth.
Huo Tingzhen calmly withdrew her hand, sat down on the sofa next to her, and played an audio story for Grandma Huo to distract her.
Xu Niannian held Old Mrs. Huo's hand the entire time.
Xu Que seemed to be deep in thought.
Huang Ling returned to the company dejectedly, refusing to speak no matter how his wife and daughter tried to persuade him.
In the afternoon, a group of people barged into his office.
He placed an acquisition agreement on his desk.
He flipped through a few pages at random, then angrily threw the contract on the ground, saying, "Tell the people behind you that you can't possibly get rid of me with this little bit of money. You're dreaming."
Huang Ruo and his wife also cheered from the sidelines, "That's right."
To Huang Ruo and his wife's surprise, the company was acquired just one day later.
It's free of charge.
Overnight, their family lost everything.
Huang Ruo's Porsche was also driven away; they managed to take nothing with them except a pile of clothes.
The Huang family of three kept calling Huo Qizhen, but no one answered.
When I called Huo An, he answered.
He was quite surprised to hear that Huang Ling's company was gone.
Who acted so quickly?
When he heard that Huang's other family had been driven to the side of the road and that he should send someone to pick them up, he suddenly wanted to laugh. "Your wife's family has taken a lot of benefits from you two over the years. Since you have nowhere to stay, shouldn't you go to them?"
Huang Ling hung up the phone in disbelief.
"What do we do?" Huang Ruo squatted on the ground and sobbed.
Huang Ling looked at his wife and said, "Call your brothers and tell them to come pick us up."
After Mrs. Huang finished making the call, someone came to pick them up very quickly.
Mrs. Huang stood up very straight, and at the crucial moment, her brothers did not let her down.
