Chapter 577: One in a Hundred
After leaving the hospital, Liang Zixuan went directly to the bar.
When Huo Yunting walked into the box, he had already drunk quite a bit.
Seeing him pouring glass after glass of wine into his mouth, Huo Yunting couldn't help but frown and stepped forward to snatch the glass away.
"What happened? Why did you drink so much?"
Liang Zixuan sneered, "Give me the wine."
"No matter what happens, drinking won't solve the problem."
"I called you to ask you to come over and drink with me, not to ask you to persuade me to drink."
Huo Yunting's expression was icy. "You've already drunk several bottles. If you keep going like this, you'll end up in the hospital!"
"It doesn't matter. She doesn't care anyway."
Thinking of Zhen Yan, a trace of pain flashed in Liang Zixuan's eyes, followed by anger and unwillingness.
Huo Yunting glanced at him and asked in surprise, "Is it because of Zhen Yan?"
"Don't mention her to me! I've already broken up with her, and we have nothing to do with each other anymore!"
Huo Yunting had been watching the two of them grow up over the past few years. Liang Zixuan had even told him that he was going to propose to her next year, so how could they suddenly break up?
"What happened? Why did you break up so suddenly?"
"I also want to know why she broke up with me for no apparent reason, but it doesn't matter anymore. I don't want to hear anything about this person anymore."
Seeing his angry face, Huo Yunting knew that he was just being stubborn. If he really didn't care, he wouldn't even blink even if he heard the other person's name.
"I don't know what went wrong between you two, but based on my understanding of Zhen Yan, the affection she usually shows for you is not fake. Did you do something to make her angry?"
Liang Zixuan snorted coldly and said unhappily, "Before she proposed breaking up, we had almost no conflicts, and she said she was just tired of it. I also contacted her several times and gave her chances. Since she refused to talk, forget it. She's just a woman. As long as I want any woman, I can get her. Why bother wasting time on a woman?"
And she is a heartless woman!
Huo Yunting couldn't help but laugh at him, "Your actions are completely contrary to your words. You clearly care terribly about it, yet you insist on being stubborn."
"Who cares about her? It's just a relationship, right? I'll start dating another woman tomorrow!"
Seeing his eyes were red, Huo Yunting couldn't help but frown and said, "Alright, I'll take you home. Why are you drinking so early in the morning? Let's talk about it after you sober up."
It was almost noon when I sent Liang Zixuan back home.
Huo Yunting called his assistant and then prepared to return to Huo's.
As soon as I got downstairs, I received a call from Ke Ning.
"Mr. Huo, Ms. Cheng wants to see you."
Huo Yunting paused for several seconds before speaking: "Send me the address."
Ever since she found out more than three years ago that he was not her biological son, Cheng Shumin has always hated him and refused to meet him. She even moved to Country M in order to completely sever ties with him.
This was the first time she asked to see him.
It was an hour later when we arrived at Cheng Shumin's ward door.
Huo Yunting walked into the ward and looked indifferently at Cheng Shumin who was sitting on the hospital bed.
"I heard you wanted to see me."
"Um."
Cheng Shumin's eyes when she looked at him no longer had the hatred she had before, but there was not much tenderness either, only complexity.
"Come and sit down first."
She devoted almost all her energy to Huo Yunting and had been proud of him for more than 20 years. Suddenly one day, she found out that he was not her biological son. No mother could bear it.
So Huo Tianyi locked them up and brought them to the capital, and then locked them up in a dark basement. Cheng Shumin resented him.
She hated herself for raising a child who was not her own, and she also hated that her own son died at birth...
However, when Huo Yunting rescued her and Huo Jinsong but refused to meet with them, she knew that Huo Yunting actually had a grudge against her, so he was unwilling to meet her.
Huo Yunting sat down beside the bed, his expression still calm.
"If you have anything to say, just tell me."
Cheng Shumin sighed, "Yun Ting, I know I've been too cold to you in the past few years, but after what happened this time, I realized I can't blame you. After all, you don't know the truth either."
"I'm sorry, can you forgive me?"
There was no fluctuation in Huo Yunting's eyes, and his expression as he looked at Cheng Shumin remained cold.
"These words you said shouldn't be your true purpose, right? What do you want from me?"
When Cheng Shumin met Huo Yunting's cold eyes, her pupils shrank and her expression became a little unnatural.
"I really want to reconcile with you. Let's put those things in the past behind us. Can you forgive mom?"
As Cheng Shumin finished speaking, the ward fell into a suffocating silence.
After a long moment, Huo Yunting said indifferently, "I will guarantee your future life with my father, but I won't have any contact with you again. You said you wanted me to forgive you, but in fact, your eyes were still filled with disgust when you looked at me. One cannot hide disgust."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Shumin's face turned extremely ugly, and it took a long time before she looked at Huo Yunting.
But the calmness he had pretended to have was no longer in his eyes, but was instead filled with disgust and hatred.
"Indeed, I still dislike you and hate you, but Yiyi is going back to China soon, and I don't want you to treat Yiyi badly because of what happened between me and your father, so I pretended to forgive you!"
"Don't worry, I won't tell Yiyi about this. I will treat her as my own sister. As long as she is obedient, I will give her everything she deserves."
After saying that, Huo Yunting stood up and was about to leave.
Cheng Shumin's expression became extremely excited, and she raised her voice and asked, "What do you mean?! Huo's already has 10% of Yiyi's shares, are you trying to embezzle it?! Huo Yunting, why are you so selfish?!"
Huo Yunting looked back at her, and the coldness in his eyes made Cheng Shumin stunned.
"When did Huo's get her shares? When I took over Huo's, it was already on its last legs. I led Huo's to become stronger step by step. If she obeys me, I will naturally give her some of Huo's shares. But if she goes against me, I won't give her a penny."
Cheng Shumin sneered, "You finally showed your true colors. If you really regarded Yiyi as your own sister, you would give her the shares regardless of whether she obeyed you or not, right?"
"You don't have to say these things to anger me. I have my own principles and methods for doing things. Take good care of yourself. Once you recover, I will have Koning arrange a plane to take you abroad."
"No! I don't want to go abroad! I want to stay in Wangjing from now on. Don't forget, I am still your nominal mother."
Meeting her disgusted gaze, Huo Yunting unconsciously clenched his hands hanging by his side.
He looked at her and said word by word: "Whatever you want!"
