Chapter 528: Earthquakes
Just as Xiao Muzhen was about to get angry, he quickly stepped back and walked upstairs.
"I'm going to take a shower."
Looking at his back, Xiao Muzhen couldn't help but smile, with tenderness on her face.
The next morning, as soon as Huo Yunting arrived at Huo's, Ke Ning immediately reported the news to President Wei.
"Boss Huo, I heard something last night. Boss Wei is looking for something recently."
Huo Yunting raised an eyebrow, "What is it?"
“I heard that this is a family heirloom from Mr. Wei’s wife. After Mrs. Wei married Mr. Wei, the Wei family encountered a crisis. Mrs. Wei sold all the dowry she brought with her to help the Wei family overcome the crisis.
Since then, President Wei has been trying to find a way to redeem Mrs. Wei's dowry. He has found most of it over the years, except for a set of jade jewelry that Mrs. Wei pawned as a family heirloom. President Wei has been looking for it and seemed to have received some news yesterday.
Huo Yunting raised his eyebrows and said, "Keep searching. We must find that set of jewelry before President Wei finds out where it is."
"We are investigating and should have results today at the latest."
"good."
There was news in the afternoon.
Koning knocked on the door and came in, his face looking a little grim.
"Boss Huo, where did you find that set of jewelry..."
Seeing him hesitant, Huo Yunting frowned, "Whose place?"
"At...at Mrs. Guo's place."
Huo Yunting was silent for a few seconds after hearing this, and then said coldly, "Go and make an appointment with Mr. Guo."
As soon as Huo Yunting arrived at the door of the Guo family, he saw President Wei walking out with a grim expression. When he saw Huo Yunting, he was stunned for a moment, then quickly adjusted his expression and smiled.
"Mr. Huo, I was surprised to see you here. Did you come to discuss business with Mr. Guo?"
Huo Yunting nodded, "Well, is President Wei here to discuss business as well?"
"Well, I have something else to do at the company, so I'll go back first."
"goodbye."
After Wei Dingcheng left, Ke Ning whispered, "Boss Wei must be here for the same reason as us."
But it was obvious that he did not succeed, otherwise he would not have this expression.
Huo Yunting said calmly, "Go in first."
Knowing that Huo Yunting was coming, Guo Lin waited in the living room. When he saw the servant bringing Huo Yunting in, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Yun Ting, come and sit down. What do you want to see me about today?"
Guo Lin's face was full of enthusiasm. After all, he also hoped that Guo Zhen could be with Huo Yunting. This way, the Guo family and the Su family would have closer ties, which would be beneficial to both families.
The key is that Huo Yunting is also liked by his daughter. You know, he almost went bald because of Guo Zhenzhen's marriage. Now that Guo Zhenzhen can find someone she likes and is satisfied with, Guo Lin is naturally happy to see it happen.
The most troublesome thing now is that Huo Yunting is still entangled with the adopted daughter of the Xiao family.
Huo Yunting sat down opposite him and said straight to the point, "Mr. Guo, I came to see you today because I want to buy something from you."
Hearing this, Guo Lin's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Is it Mrs. Wei's heirloom jewelry?"
Huo Yunting nodded and said, "Well, if Uncle Guo is willing to give it to me, I can buy it at ten times the market price."
Guo Lin frowned, thought for a moment, and then slowly said, "Yun Ting, it's not that Uncle Guo doesn't want to sell it to you. Moreover, based on the deal between your father and I, I'd be willing to give it to you. It's just that your aunt fell in love with that set of jewelry at first sight. She bought it and has carefully preserved it for all these years. She intended to use it as Zhenzhen's dowry when she gets married. So, it's not about money."
Huo Yunting's eyes darkened. "If Mrs. Guo is willing to part with it, I can find the best craftsman to make a better set of jewelry for Miss Guo. It all depends on Miss Guo's wishes!"
"Yun Ting, if you really want that set of jewelry, there's actually a way. If you marry Zhen Zhen, then Zhen Zhen's dowry will be yours. I have no objection to what you want to do with it."
Ke Ning frowned beside him. Was the Guo family trying to use Huo Yunting's desire for that set of jewelry to force him to marry Guo Zhenzhen?!
Huo Yunting pursed his lips, stood up and said, "Mr. Guo, I already have a wife, and it's impossible for me to marry someone else. Miss Guo is very capable, and she will definitely find a better man in the future."
Guo Lin's face turned a little ugly. Just as he was about to speak, a sweet voice came from the stairs on the second floor.
"I don't want to marry anyone else. I just love you. I will never marry anyone else but you in this life!"
Several people turned their heads at the same time and saw Guo Zhenzhen, wearing a light yellow tube-top miniskirt, walking quickly downstairs. She stopped in front of Huo Yunting and then looked up and said, "Mr. Huo, if you are willing to marry me, not only will I get a set of jewelry, but the entire Guo Group will be yours!"
Huo Yunting's eyes darkened. He looked at Guo Zhenzhen seriously and said, "Miss Guo, please don't make such jokes again. My wife will be unhappy if she hears. Since President Guo can't bear to part with her, I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Guo Lin looked at his back coldly. If Huo Yunting was not Su Baitian's son, he would not let Huo go just based on his attitude towards Guo Zhenzhen!
Guo Zhenzhen wanted to catch up, but Guo Lin shouted angrily, "Zhenzhen! Stop!"
His voice was cold. Guo Zhenzhen paused for a moment, turned around and looked at him and said, "Dad, don't worry about me!"
"If I don't care, you're going to run over and throw yourself at me! You're the eldest daughter of the Guo family, not one of those messy women out there. Even if you really like me, hold back and don't do such a cheap thing!"
Meeting Guo Lin's cold eyes, Guo Zhenzhen bit her lower lip and ultimately did not chase after him.
The living room fell silent. After more than ten seconds, Guo Zhenzhen walked over to sit down opposite Guo Lin and said, "Dad, why don't you pack that set for me? I'll give it to Huo Yunting. At least he'll owe me a favor, so it will be easier for me to get close to him in the future!"
Guo Lin couldn't help but glare at her and said unhappily, "Do you know how much that set of jewelry cost?! You just gave it to me as a gift?! Wei Dingcheng just offered 5 billion and I didn't budge!"
"Oh, how can that be the same?! Huo Yunting will be your son-in-law in the future. If you are so stingy now, how can he develop a good impression of me? Threatening him with this kind of thing will not only not make him surrender, but will have the opposite effect!"
A hint of surprise flashed in Guo Lin's eyes. "It's rare that you have a brain."
Guo Zhenzhen rolled her eyes. "If I don't use some tricks and keep being so domineering in front of him, he definitely won't like me. A successful man like him only likes gentle types. I guess this is what impressed Xiao Muzhen."
After a moment of silence, Guo Lin still refused: "Let's wait and see about this matter. Wait a few days to make him anxious. By then, it will be better if you send the things over."
