Chapter 578: A Drop in the Ocean
After Huo Yunting left, Cheng Shumin quickly made a phone call.
"Yiyi, when is your flight? Come directly to the hospital. I have something to tell you."
…
When we returned to Huo's, it was already past two in the afternoon.
As soon as I stepped out of the elevator, Koning came up to me.
"Mr. Huo... Miss Guo came to see you, and I didn't stop her... She's in your office now..."
Huo Yunting glanced at him coldly and said expressionlessly, "You can't even stop one person. Looks like you can prepare to retire."
When Huo Yunting opened the office door and saw Guo Zhenzhen sitting on the sofa and drinking coffee leisurely, his face turned cold.
"Ms. Guo, I hope you won't break into my office without permission next time. Otherwise, if any of Huo's secrets are leaked, I'm afraid Miss Guo will be highly suspected."
Guo Zhenzhen raised her eyebrows and said nonchalantly, "You are my fiancé, how could I possibly harm you?"
Huo Yunting didn't want to play tricks on her, so he said coldly, "If everything is fine, Miss Guo can leave now. I have to go to work."
Guo Zhenzhen smiled, stood up and said, "Who said I'm fine? Uncle Su asked us to attend a celebration banquet together next Wednesday night. I came here to give you the invitation."
She handed the invitation to Huo Yunting with a proud smile on her face.
In order to seduce Huo Yunting, she specially wore a V-neck suspender skirt today, with a large gray mink coat on the outside. At this moment, she had taken off the mink coat. The V-neck of the skirt was very deep, and as long as she lowered her head, she could see the beautiful scenery of her chest.
Huo Yunting glanced at the invitation and said expressionlessly, "You go by yourself. I'm busy."
"I heard that Xiao Muzhen will also be there. If you don't have time to go, I'll have to go and cause trouble for her. I believe that compared to an adopted daughter of the Xiao family, the people present should pay more attention to me, right?"
Although Guo Zhenzhen knew that Xiao Muzhen would not suffer any loss due to her personality, her words still succeeded in provoking Huo Yunting's anger.
"Guo Zhenzhen, don't challenge my bottom line!"
Guo Zhenzhen looked contemptuous, "Huo Yunting, who is challenging whose bottom line? Don't forget, you agreed to the engagement. Since you agreed, even if you are pretending, you have to act more like my fiancé. If you embarrass me, I will deal with Xiao Muzhen!"
Huo Yunting's eyes grew even colder. "It seems the lesson I taught you last time wasn't enough, giving you the courage to threaten me!"
Guo Zhenzhen slammed the invitation down on the table and smiled nonchalantly, "If you really dare to touch me, the Guo family will not be a pushover. You don't really think that with Uncle Su's protection, you can do whatever you want in the capital, do you?"
After she finished speaking, she picked up her coat and bag, walked up to Huo Yunting, and said word by word, "I hope I can see you at the banquet entrance at six o'clock next Wednesday evening."
Huo Yunting grabbed her wrist and stared down at her, each word seeming to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
"Guo Zhenzhen, you can declare to the public that you dumped me. Continuing like this will only torture both of us."
"How come?"
Guo Zhenzhen shook off his hand and said with amusement, "From the beginning to the end, you were the only one suffering. I'm just enjoying your pain now, and I'm enjoying it. Can't you see that?"
"What do you want? Will you cancel the engagement?"
"I won't cancel it. Forget it. Not only will I not cancel the engagement, but I will marry you in the near future. Even if you hate me, you have to marry me in this life!"
After Guo Zhenzhen left, Huo Yunting's gaze became colder and colder, and a suffocating cold aura emanated from his body.
It seems that the Guo family can no longer stay!
But if he took action himself, Su Baitian might not be willing to give him Xiao Muzhen's antidote, and he would then be in a dilemma again.
This matter cannot pass through his hands.
More than ten minutes later, Huo Yunting made a phone call.
"Let's meet."
8pm, dark night bar.
When Qi Yunzhe pushed open the door of the box, Huo Yunting was already waiting inside.
He walked over to sit opposite Huo Yunting and said coldly, "What do you want from me?"
Huo Yunting poured him a glass of wine and said, "Yunzhe, I need your help with something."
Qi Yunzhe sneered, "Huo Yunting, you won't forget that you almost bankrupted the Qi family. I didn't retaliate against you, which was already good enough. Now you still want me to help you?"
"As long as you are willing to help me, I can help the Qi family return to its former glory."
Qi Yunzhe frowned, his first reaction was disbelief, and his expression became alert.
"Huo Yunting, do you take me for a fool?!"
"What I said is true, and I asked you to help me with this matter, so it must be kept secret and not let anyone else know."
Qi Yunzhe was silent for a few seconds, then said, "Aren't you afraid that I'll tell others about this?"
"I trust you."
Meeting Huo Yunting's serious eyes, Qi Yunzhe was stunned for a moment, then said coldly: "I refuse, because I don't trust you, and I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore. For the sake of our past brotherhood, not taking revenge on you is my last concession!"
After saying that, Qi Yunzhe stood up and left.
Huo Yunting did not try to persuade him to stay. If Qi Yunzhe agreed to this, he would not trust him.
To deal with the Guo family, he needs someone he can trust. Only when he is sure that the other party will not betray him will he tell the other party his plan.
He picked up the glass, drank the wine, stood up and left.
As I passed the hall, I suddenly saw a familiar figure out of the corner of my eye.
He turned his head and saw that it was indeed Xiao Muzhen. He couldn't help but frowned. He remembered that she didn't like to come to this kind of place. Why did she suddenly appear here?
Just as he was wondering, a figure wearing a mask and a hat walked up to Xiao Muzhen, and the two turned around and prepared to leave.
Huo Yunting hurriedly chased after them, but at this time a pole dancer walked onto the stage. Everyone cheered and rushed towards the stage. Huo Yunting was squeezed in the middle and couldn't move forward at all. In the blink of an eye, the two disappeared from his sight.
After finally squeezing out, he immediately called Koning.
"Find out who Xiao Muzhen met at the Dark Night Bar today! I want the results within an hour!"
After hanging up the phone, Huo Yunting looked back at the bar before asking the driver to start the car and leave.
As soon as I got home, Koning got the results.
"Boss Huo, I've checked it out. The person Miss Xiao met today... was Miss Yiyi..."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yunting's eyes flashed with shock, and then he said coldly: "How do they know each other?"
The year Xiao Muzhen returned to the Chi family, Huo Yiyi went abroad to study, so it was impossible for the two to know each other.
"I haven't found out exactly how the two knew each other yet, and I'm investigating."
"I understand. Tell me immediately if you have any news."
On the other hand, Xiao Muzhen never expected that the cold Hua Chong was such a young girl.
"Hua Zhong, I thought you were at least thirty years old, but I didn't expect you to be so young. You should be one or two years younger than me, right?"
