Huo An didn't ask any more questions, but looked at Jian Yu and said, "This time, our family has wronged you. If you have any requests, just say so, and I will definitely fulfill them, as long as you can forgive your Aunt Xu and Niannian."
Xu Zian was coming to greet Huo An when he heard these words from afar. He immediately stopped and did not go any further.
The recording is still being played out.
Huo An said, "Shut it down! There are too many people here. Letting more people know will only make us a laughing stock."
joke?
"So you're afraid of becoming a laughing stock too?" Huo Tingzhen mocked.
Huo An: "So what do you want? Jian Yu is alright, isn't she?"
"Jian Yu is lucky that she's alright. If something like this happens again, she might not be so lucky."
Huo An, "Your aunt is already in a mental hospital."
"Isn't Xu Niannian still here?"
"At most, it can be considered as knowing but not reporting it every year."
"That sounds nice, but when the police came to investigate, she didn't say that at all. Do you know that covering up a crime is wrong?"
Xu Niannian hurriedly grabbed Huo An's sleeve, "Uncle!"
Huo An said, "We can compensate you every year."
"Do you think Jian Yu is short of money? You probably don't know how much Jian Yu is worth. Don't bring up the meager assets of the Xu family. Oh... I forgot, the Xu family went bankrupt a long time ago and can't afford anything of value."
When asked about his net worth, Jian Yu tilted his head slightly.
Huo Qizhen immediately explained to her, "Sorry! I looked at the documents in your room."
The only documents in Jianyu's room so far are those in the safe, so it seems they know the contents of her will.
Jian Yu: "Oh! It's nothing!"
An Ke naturally realized that Jian Yu was of extraordinary status, and gently touched her heart, finding it beating faster and faster.
Huo An, however, thought that Huo Qizhen had given Jian Yu a lot of assets and then helped Jian Yu make money through investments. "No matter how high his net worth is, it's all given by our family."
"Oh!"
Huo Tingzhen laughed in anger, "If Xu Que hadn't caused so much trouble, Grandma wouldn't have died. Are you determined to protect her to the very end?"
Huo An doesn't want to hear anyone mention the cause of Old Madam Huo's death anymore.
That's enough.
Huo Tingzhen nodded, "Then let the police decide!"
"......"
Xu Niannian turned her gaze to her phone.
Huo Tingzhen immediately withdrew his hand. "Trying to steal it?"
Xu Niannian estimated the distance and realized she couldn't overtake them, so she had no choice but to back down, "You can make demands, as long as I can meet them."
"Who cares about your terms? You..."
Before Huo Tingzhen could finish speaking, Bao Yanbai picked her up and spun her around halfway.
Xu Zian's hand missed its target. He tried to grab it again, but Bao Yanbai kicked him several meters away.
"Zian!"
Xu Niannian shouted and ran towards Xu Zian.
Everyone's attention turned to Xu Zi'an.
Just then, Xu Niannian suddenly made a feint, jumped back, and snatched the phone from Huo Tingzhen's hand.
"careful!"
Anke went to help, but was tripped by Huo An's bodyguard.
Anke fell heavily to the ground, wincing in pain.
Huo Tingzhen's eyes turned cold, and he shouted to the bodyguards in the distance, "Take it back for me."
A group of bodyguards rushed over.
Xu Niannian grabbed the phone and ran outside.
Fearing he might accidentally hurt Jian Yu, Huo Qizhen immediately took several steps back.
Jian Yu said, "You can put me down."
Huo Qizhen turned his head, and his bodyguards immediately formed a human wall to clear a path for him, leading directly to the car door outside.
“Mr. Huo, I can walk by myself.”
Huo Qizhen shifted his gaze to Jian Yu's legs, "Your ankle is still swollen."
Jianyu, “…”
Before the Cayenne fell into the water, Jian Yu jumped out of the car and twisted her ankle, but it wasn't serious. She bought a plaster and didn't bother with it anymore.
Unexpectedly, Huo Qizhen discovered it.
"Where else are you injured?"
Jian Yu shook his head.
"You smell strongly of plasters."
Jian Yu thought for a moment, "Defensive midfielder."
Huo Qizhen looked down. "Bones?"
Jian Yu said, "It's the muscles that are injured, the bones are fine."
Huo Qizhen looked slightly serious.
Jian Yu had no idea what he was thinking.
"I'm really fine, don't worry."
Huo Qizhen was still worried and continued walking towards the car door with Jian Yu in his arms.
Jianyu, “…”
Why is this person so disobedient?
The garden was very noisy, and many people came out to see what was going on.
Jian Yu looked up and a bodyguard ran to Huo Tingzhen's side. "Miss, we were a step too late. Xu Niannian smashed the phone with a stone from the garden."
Huo Tingzhen was about to rush over.
Jian Yu called out to her, "Never mind."
"It doesn't count."
"Look over there."
Jian Yu pointed to Huo Yunzhen's mourning hall, where someone was secretly taking pictures.
He gently patted Huo Qizhen's back, signaling him to let go.
Huo Qizhen glanced in that direction but ignored it, and carefully put Jian Yu into the car.
Seeing this, An wanted to get in the car, but was stopped by Huo Qizhen's bodyguard.
An Ke hurriedly explained, "Mr. Huo, please let me go with Jian Yu! I can take care of her."
Huo Qizhen: "Arrange a guest room for Miss An."
Anke still wanted to get on the bus.
Huo Tingzhen grabbed her arm, and she watched helplessly as Huo Qizhen led Jian Yu away.
After Jian Yu left, An Ke immediately became as obedient as a quail.
Huo Tingzhen released her arm and waved his hand at the bodyguard, "Tell them to delete the stuff."
When members of the Huo clan came over to inquire about the situation, Huo Tingzhen simply said, "Ask my father."
Huo An looked displeased and couldn't help but glare at Huo Tingzhen in front of his clansmen.
Old Master Huo tapped his cane and said, "Fine! You did something wrong and took it out on your daughter. Do you think that now that your mother is gone, we old folks can't do anything to you?"
Huo An changed the subject, "Second Grandfather, could you please check if everything for tomorrow's funeral has been prepared?"
"Don't change the subject."
Huo An pointed at Xu Zi'an, who had stood up, and said, "Take your sister back! She's not feeling well, so don't come over tomorrow."
He then pointed to his bodyguards, "You two take them back."
Want to leave?
Huo Tingzhen refused to release him.
Huo An scolded her, but she wouldn't listen.
Seeing the increasingly tense atmosphere between the father and daughter, Bao Yanbai quickly pulled Huo Tingzhen back, saying, "Don't argue in front of your grandmother's mourning hall, or she won't be able to rest in peace."
Mentioning Madam Huo, Huo Tingzhen's eyes welled up with tears. "Grandma was driven to her death by Xu Que. Her life shouldn't have ended like this. She must have left in unease. I don't know how some people can sleep soundly. Aren't they afraid that my grandma's spirit will come back to settle scores with them?"
Everyone could tell that Huo Tingzhen was making veiled criticisms.
Huo An was so angry that his cheeks trembled, but he couldn't refute it. He left the scene after saying, "I'm going to Yun Zhen's funeral hall."
Xu Niannian returned safely to the Xu family home under the escort of bodyguards.
What she didn't expect was that she had just stepped inside when her grandmother sent her to a mental hospital.
She even lived in the same room as Xu Que.
