Chapter 734 Three People
The two of them were talking excitedly.
I thought I could convince the old man.
The old man closed his eyes and watched the two of them become more and more excited as they talked, his whole face turning red.
"Grandpa, what do you think of our idea?" Huo Lao Si asked the old man, while Huo Lao Wu looked at him eagerly.
The old man couldn't even sneer.
He fumbled with his crutch at his side with one hand, looked at the two idiots in front of him, and asked coldly, "What do you think of this girl Bian Zhi?"
As soon as these words fell.
Huo Laowu and the other two thought that the old man was asking them who to choose as the head of the Huo family.
The two of them immediately became excited.
"That girl! She's pretty... good at what she does," everyone in the Huo family had to admit. "She's just a girl, and as a girl, she's bound to have children. Plus, she's bound to be soft-hearted. Look at how Bian Zhi treated Zhou Suihuai. She was too soft-hearted. So, I think she's not stable enough and unreliable."
Huo Laowu nodded.
The old man sneered, "Oh, she's unreliable? Then you two tell me, who in the Huo family is reliable?"
When Huo Laowu and Huo Laosi heard this, they chuckled.
Then--
"I think Fourth Brother is good."
"Hey - Old Five, what are you talking about? Fourth Brother thinks you are calm and steady, and you are the perfect choice to be the head of the Huo family."
"How could that be, Fourth Brother? In my heart, you are the smartest among us brothers."
“…”
“…”
The two of them exchanged compliments, becoming more and more excited, and almost forgot that there was an old man present.
The old man was also furious. Without saying a word, he looked at the two of them like monkeys. He wanted to see how exaggerated and brainless they could be.
result--
"Fifth brother, your talent is like the bright moon in the sky. It is beyond the reach of mortals like us."
"No, no, no, Fourth Brother, your talent is like Zhuge Liang's. The whole world is in your control."
Old man: “…”
Want to endure.
But I really can't stand listening to it.
The two men had no shame at all and started boasting, "If you keep talking like that, you two will be the princes of North America, right?"
The old man finally spoke slowly.
The two finally realized that there was an old man in the room.
At this moment, the old man smiled with his white teeth, stared at the two people with cold eyes, and then picked up the crutch that he had been holding in his hand for a long time and hit them hard.
"ah!"
"ah--"
"Help!"
"Old man, you told us to say it, why are you still using violence?"
The old man showed no mercy, and every blow of his cane landed on the two unworthy people. "I told you to talk nonsense! You're talking about Zhuge Liang! You're not ashamed to say that, but I'm ashamed for you! I don't know what sin I have committed to deserve such care from you guys. Have you seen the white hair on my head? You're so angry!"
The crutch fell on the two men mercilessly, making a dull bang. This time the old man was really angry and used all his strength.
He was about to leave, and before he left, he wanted to let them know who the real head of the Huo family was! Otherwise, if they offended Zhou Suihuai in the future, they would end up dead!
The old man was old, and after hitting him more than ten times, he put down his crutches, panting.
"You two have been harboring evil intentions since you were little, thinking no one knows. You think you're hiding your thoughts, but who doesn't know? You two fools think you're so smart! If you were really smart, it would be fine, but you're just completely stupid!"
The old man was tired, so he pulled out a chair and sat down, too lazy to waste time talking to these two idiots.
So, he said directly to Huo Lao Si and Lao Wu, "I know, even if I say it now, you won't listen. Someone will naturally teach you a lesson in the future." Although he didn't want to admit it, the old man was really old. After a few knocks, he couldn't breathe. "But I want you to promise me one thing."
"Regarding this matter, no matter when or under what circumstances, you must absolutely not cross the line. Otherwise, I will not be able to protect you in the future."
Huo Laowu and Laosi exchanged a glance, rubbing the hurt area, frowning, and asked, "What?"
They thought that the old man was saying that they would never be able to covet the position of power in the Huo family in this lifetime.
The old man looked at the two of them sideways, saw through their thoughts, and smiled coldly, "You think you can do it? You are overestimating your own abilities."
The two people who were insulted: "..."
The old man rolled his eyes and said, "Nothing else, I want you to promise me that you will not touch the child in Bian Zhi's belly or Zhou Suihuai!"
"Grandpa, what are you thinking about? The child in Bian Zhi's belly is a descendant of our Huo family. We have always recognized this. How could we possibly change it?" Huo Lao Si said cleverly.
The old man saw through it at a glance, "What about Zhou Suihuai?"
As soon as these words came out.
The two were silent.
"I'm not kidding your sister. Zhou Suihuai is Bian Zhi's life. You've all seen it for yourself. If you don't care about your life and touch him, Bian Zhi will show no mercy in the future, and I won't be able to do anything about it. That's all I have to say. Whether you believe it or not, whether you listen or not, is up to you."
Finished.
The old man waved his hand, indicating that he was tired and asked the two to leave.
Huo Lao Si was about to leave, but Huo Lao Wu stopped.
He was more serious and wanted to ask the old man for a golden ticket to immunity from death.
He dragged his feet and refused to leave.
The old man glanced at the fifth brother and said earnestly, "Go back and think carefully. Do you have what it takes to take power? If you do, what did you do when Huo Wuzun wasn't in North America? You didn't. You don't have the means, nor the courage. It's not that I don't give you a chance. I treat each of you equally. But if you don't have the ability, you don't have it. I've paved the way for you and found someone to take the helm. If you still have extravagant ambitions, then you'll have to walk the path ahead on your own. I'm old, and I've done my best to plan this far. I'm not worthy of any of you."
Finished.
The old man turned his back, looking old and lonely.
downstairs.
Bian Zhi sat in the main seat on the sofa.
Standing opposite were Huo Tianyao and Huo Laosan, who were questioning Bian Zhi, "Is the old man really going to retire? What did he tell you?"
Bian Zhi glanced at Huo Lao Si and Huo Lao Wu who were coming down the stairs and said frankly, "The old man asked me for a promise."
Huo Tianyao: "What?"
Bian Zhi has always been open and honest, never hiding anything. "The old man asked me to promise that as long as you don't touch the child in my belly and Zhou Suihuai, then I will leave you a way out no matter what."
Huo Tianyao didn't understand. He frowned and said, "What do you mean? Didn't we sign the agreement? Who would touch your child?"
Bian Zhi smiled lightly as he looked at the two people walking down the stairs.
"Really?"
"I'm being frank. The information I received indicates that three of you four have the intention and the action to take power."
Huo Tianyao was shocked. "Three people?"
Bian Zhi nodded, "Three people."
"Girl, you're wrong, aren't you?" Huo Tianyao was dumbfounded. "How could there be three?"
There are only four of them here, okay?!
Why are there only three problems?
"I also hope that I'm mistaken," Bian Zhi said calmly, pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. "But what can I do? I only received three messages. As you know, the Scorpion's intelligence network has never made any mistakes."
Bian Zhi laughed lightly, feeling righteous and confident.
At this moment, Gu Yan, who was standing behind Bian Zhi to protect him, twitched his eyes.
He could tell from the back of Bian Zhi's head that Bian Zhi's face at the moment definitely said: "The Scorpion's intelligence network has never made any mistakes, so it doesn't matter if there is a mistake." If the big fish can be retrieved, that would be great, but if not, that would also be a good thing.
Bian Zhi turned his head to look at Gu Yan, met his angry eyes, and smiled soothingly.
But at this moment, the Huo family members were not in such a good mood.
Three!
Three of the four of them had taken action!
Huo Laosan and Huo Tianyao had a tacit understanding about the two exposed fools. Since there were three of them, then -
Huo Tianyao took a step to the side and looked at Huo Laosan with a deep expression, "So you still have such thoughts!"
"You're talking nonsense! If I really had such thoughts, would I still be standing here? Wouldn't I have gone upstairs to find the old man and plead for Butler Li like those two idiots? It's you who has such thoughts!" Huo Laosan looked at Huo Tianyao with displeasure and said coldly, "I didn't expect that you were so well hidden that you even fooled me. But then again, you are the loudest in everything, so naturally no one would suspect you. If it weren't for Bian Zhi's powerful poisonous scorpion, no one would have known that you were such a person!"
Bian Zhi watched the two of them biting each other, then glanced at Zhou Suihuai beside him. Zhou Suihuai leaned over and said, "Go back first and leave them alone for a few days. You won't be able to hold it back any longer."
Bian Zhi nodded and yawned. When he left, Huo Tianyao and Huo Laosan were about to fight.
Before going home, Bian Zhi went to the hospital to see Li You.
The condition is relatively stable, but that's all. It's no different from being in a vegetative state. An Xinran stays by his side.
Seeing Bian Zhi coming, she wiped her tears with the back of her hand and stood up.
Bian Zhi nodded, looked at Li You who was lifeless on the hospital bed, paused for a few seconds, then turned around and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, he saw a streak of scarlet on An Xinran's face out of the corner of his eye.
Bian Zhi paused, then pointed at An Xinran and asked, "What are you doing?"
Upon hearing this, An Xinran put her fingers behind her.
Bian Zhi looked straight at An Xinran, and then sighed, "You may not be able to save Li You like this, and you will sacrifice yourself in vain."
An Xinran shook her head, tears falling from her eyes, looking desolate and silent.
It was a personal choice, so Bian Zhi didn’t say much. He just looked at An Xinran again and turned away.
In the car.
Zhou Suihuai asked Bian Zhi in confusion, "Is she saving Li You?"
Bian Zhi curled up in the passenger seat, sleepily saying, "Yeah."
"How to save her?" Zhou Suihuai tried to find a topic to talk about so that Bian Zhi wouldn't sleep in her bed. If she got a stiff neck, she would be uncomfortable for several days. Seeing home was just around the corner, Zhou Suihuai drove the car a little faster while ensuring safe driving. "Does she have a solution?"
Bian Zhikun's eyes were fighting, "Ah, An family, there are some secret techniques."
Zhou Suihuai looked at the road ahead, thinking that he should find a driver to drive in the future so that he could hold the sleepy Bian Zhi in his arms when he got home. He replied calmly, "Well, what secret technique?"
Bian Zhi opened his eyes and straightened his body, which was about to slide down. "Acupuncture combined with a secret recipe, taking human blood, there is a folk remedy that can save people who are in a deep sleep."
"Human blood?" Zhou Suihuai still had no interest. When he stopped at the red light, he leaned over and straightened Bian Zhi's hand. "Are you saying that the wound on An Xinran's finger was intended to draw human blood?"
"Um……"
"Don't you consider blood type?"
There was a moment of silence in the air, and then, a very light laugh could be heard. Then, Zhou Suihuai heard Bian Zhi say, "Are you stupid? Human blood is used as medicine, and acupuncture and moxibustion are used to activate blood circulation. It's a tradition passed down from ancient times. They consider blood type, and you can't just drink it directly."
Zhou Suihuai looked over from the co-pilot seat and saw Bian Zhi with his eyes closed, smiling lightly with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. He looked very relaxed.
"Zhou Suihuai, I've chosen the land in China and will start construction next month. We'll definitely be able to go back before the end of the year. Don't you want to build an amusement park for your children? You can find a site now."
Bian Zhi's voice became softer and softer.
Zhou Suihuai really couldn't bear to quarrel with her, so he responded softly and stepped on the accelerator faster.
Bian Zhi's thoughts were very vague, he only knew that the car seemed to have arrived at its destination.
Then, her body felt lighter, and a pair of strong arms picked her up. Then, she flew into the air and fell into the arms with a faint scent of fir.
She felt very relieved.
She rubbed his firm chest through the soft fabric, and her consciousness became lighter and lighter.
Before falling into a deep sleep.
She vaguely felt that someone was whispering something in her ear.
Her mind was a bit confused, and her reaction was slow. When she realized it belatedly, she thought Zhou Suihuai had asked, "Do you know how to use this secret technique?"
Bian Zhi nodded, "Of course."
After a few seconds of pause.
Another voice came.
"Then, if something happens to me one day, will you save me like this?"
Bian Zhi felt that this was simply impossible.
She would allow anything to happen to the whole world, but she would never let anything happen to Zhou Suihuai.
But Zhou Suihuai seemed to ask another question.
Bian Zhi opened his mouth, but his brain couldn't keep up with his mouth.
She seemed to answer something, and Zhou Suihuai also responded in a serious and solemn tone.
But she had already been dragged into the dream and had no ability to think about Zhou Suihuai's answer.
When I wake up.
It was already bright outside.
Bian Zhi rubbed his eyes and turned his head to look at Zhou Suihuai who was still sleeping.
This man followed her everywhere and had a restless day. She hadn't slept for more than ten hours, and he was worried about her.
Bian Zhi lay on her side, propping up her head to look at Zhou Suihuai's sleeping face. Her sight moved from his straight forehead, to his high nose bridge, to his sexy lips, and then all the way down to his alluring Adam's apple, and then -
It's a hard chest.
Further down...
Before my eyes could even fall, a hoarse voice came from above my head, "Where are you looking?"
Bian Zhi curved her eyes and smiled innocently.
After that, he fell into a warm embrace. "Girl, you're smiling when you've had enough sleep. I called you to get up for dinner and you almost kicked me over. Are you sleeping well now?"
Bian Zhi nestled in Zhou Suihuai's arms: "Yeah," she replied obediently, "I slept well."
Zhou Suihuai was very fond of her and held her tightly in his arms. "That's good. Eat well, sleep well, and drink well, so that you can grow up to be a hundred years old."
Bian Zhi smiled and suddenly remembered the question he had asked Zhou Suihuai before he fell into a deep sleep.
She said, "I remember telling you that I know a folk remedy to save lives, so don't be afraid. Nothing will happen to you, and I won't let anything happen to you. Even if something does happen, I can still save you."
Zhou Suihuai's expression gradually hardened after Bian Zhi's words.
In the end, he became completely expressionless.
People who used to smile suddenly look frowned, which is actually scarier than people who are prone to temper.
What's more, Zhou Suihuai has a smiling face, but once his expression is gone, he will reveal the coldness of a superior. His cold eyes are so piercing that people dare not look directly at him.
Bian Zhi is not afraid of bad luck in the new year.
Afraid that he would make himself unhappy.
So, he raised his hand and pinched Zhou Suihuai's nose, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
Bian Zhi didn't think he had said anything wrong.
"You don't even know where you went wrong?" Zhou Suihuai narrowed his eyes.
Bian Zhi had just woken up, and when he faced Zhou Suihuai, he didn't think much and just said whatever came to his mind, "I don't know."
Zhou Suihuai was so angry at the little girl in front of him.
But she looked so obedient, lying defenselessly in his arms, looking at him with big eyes like glass beads.
Zhou Suihuai couldn't keep his stern face any longer, so he could only sigh and pinch his nose, "I don't want you to save me even if I get into trouble."
These words fell.
The child whose nose was pinched frowned and looked at Zhou Suihuai with disapproval, saying in a muffled voice, "What did you say?"
"How could I not save you if you're in trouble?"
"Besides, I saved so many people. God will surely have mercy on me and won't let anything happen to you."
Zhou Suihuai looked at Bian Zhi's wrinkled but serious face and smiled gently, knowing that she took it seriously.
But he was serious.
So, he let go of her hand and gently said to Bian Zhi, "But I also hope you're well," and held the little person in his arms, "I hope you'll always be well, forever. The method of bleeding from your fingertips is too cruel. If I really need this method to survive, then I think it's fine to be a vegetable for the rest of my life."
Zhou Suihuai felt so sorry for the person that he was heartbroken.
"Seeing you so busy these days, I feel distressed and annoyed. I always feel like there are so many things going on, and I'm worried that you won't be able to balance them all and hurt yourself. You said yesterday that you would return to China by the end of the year, but later I thought about it and felt that returning or not is not that important. As long as you are well, it's fine wherever you are."
"Wherever you are, it is still my home, Zhou Suihuai."
A breeze blows outside the window, and everything is beautiful and peaceful.
Apart from--
There are a few big Buddha statues downstairs that spoil the view.
"Aunt Li, the person upstairs hasn't come down yet, can you go up and take a look?"
Zhou Suihuai was afraid that Bian Zhi would not be used to the food and drink abroad, so he brought Aunt Li with him when he went abroad.
Everyone in the Huo family knew that Aunt Li had watched Bian Zhi grow up, and was loyal to her, so everyone respected her.
However, Aunt Li had a bad temper, and they didn't dare to provoke her, so they were all very polite when speaking to her.
Even though a few people were anxious and stretched their necks to look up, they did not dare to rush upstairs past Aunt Li.
Aunt Li picked vegetables and glanced at the four people without any emotion. "They will come down naturally when the time comes. Is this your territory? Are you looking up? It's just because I'm here. If outsiders were here, they would come and see what these uncles of the Huo family are like. They raise their heads and pry into the private lives of young people. Do you have any shame?"
Aunt Li spoke directly, like a machine gun, and the men in the Huo family couldn't handle it.
He sat back in his seat angrily, but his eyes kept drifting upstairs.
After waiting for a long time until dinner time came, the people upstairs didn't come down. Aunt Li stood in front of them wearing an apron and said, "I haven't cooked for a few uncles yet. Now that we're at the restaurant, everyone should go home."
Several men of the Huo family: "..."
In this life, no one has ever dared to kick Huo Tianyao out at dinner time. He felt very aggrieved, but he really didn't dare to act rashly in Bian Zhi's house. The girl upstairs was pregnant, and the nanny was taking advantage of her power to bully others.
Huo Tianyao gritted his teeth, his face not looking good, but he was still polite. "Well, we are all here, there is no hurry, let's stay for a meal. It doesn't matter if we don't make it, it won't bother you. I'll ask someone to bring it over from the hotel later, okay?"
Huo Tianyao swore that he had never been so polite to a servant in his life, and today was the first time!
In the end, the man didn't appreciate it, stared at me, put his hands on his hips, and said, "Who are you scolding?"
"You come to my house and bring food in from outside. People will think I'm missing out on a meal for you?!"
The men of the Huo family rubbed their noses and thought: Don’t you need us for a meal?
Before she could even begin to speak, Aunt Li spoke up again, "You're already old, what are you doing guarding a little girl all day?! Our young lady is pregnant. Do you even know what pregnancy is? We were all born from the womb. If you don't understand, go home and review your studies! I'm telling you, I don't care how powerful you are in North America, but you have to let our young lady get some rest!"
"How long have you been in this shabby place of yours? Your face has become so skinny! I'm warning you, don't try to catch monsters in my territory, otherwise, you won't be able to enter again!"
Aunt Li treated Bianzhi as her own child and protected him with good food and drink every day, but these troublemakers kept coming back every day, and she got angry just seeing them.
"I'm telling you, in this house, our young lady makes all the decisions, but I'm the one who decides when it comes to food. If anyone dares to bring out anything that's not from my kitchen!" Aunt Li wielded her cold kitchen knife, "I'll chop them to pieces!"
After saying that, he narrowed his eyes and glanced fiercely at the men.
Then, he went to the yard to make a phone call.
It seems like he is beating up a monster and complaining.
"Yeah, those so-called uncles are nothing like uncles. They act like effeminate women and are shameless for a little profit."
A few shameless people, "..."
"Yeah, they're hanging out with my family right now. I'm ashamed for them! I just scolded them!"
"What? Go?"
"They won't leave. They're thicker-skinned than city walls. Every day they just try to trip up our young lady behind her back. If men don't do things honestly, they would all become eunuchs in ancient times!"
"Don't worry, I won't give them a good face! What uncle? If they don't consider themselves elders, why should we try to appease them? Don't worry about it. I know my limits!"
After saying that, he hung up the phone again.
From then on, the Huo family members understood that Aunt Li really had some say in the family.
Aunt Li hung up the phone and came in. Not only did she not give them water or food, she also glared at several people.
Several people from the Huo family who had fought in the bloody battles outside were now timidly shrinking their necks here, swallowing their saliva when they were thirsty.
