Chapter 581: Bustling Traffic
"Of course it's true. Although this is my first time meeting you, I feel that you are a very good person. It would be great if you could be my sister-in-law!"
Looking at Huo Yiyi's sincere expression, Guo Zhenzhen finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile on her face became more sincere.
"That's good. I liked you the moment I saw you. I thought you would be a difficult young lady to approach, but I didn't expect you to have such a good temper."
"You only know what people are like after you get to know them."
"Yes, we will be good friends from now on. If you need my help with anything, feel free to tell me."
Huo Yiyi's smile deepened. "You are my sister-in-law. I will definitely trouble you more in the future."
"Whatever troubles a family has, they deserve."
After the two finished their meal, Guo Zhenzhen sent Huo Yiyi home before leaving.
On the way back, she kept humming a little tune and was obviously in a good mood.
With Huo Yiyi's help, his relationship with Huo Yunting would surely advance by leaps and bounds.
Thinking of this, her mood became cheerful unconsciously, as if she could see herself marrying Huo Yunting in the near future.
On the other side, after watching Guo Zhenzhen's car drive away, the smile on Huo Yiyi's face gradually faded.
She agreed to Guo Zhenzhen not to match her with Huo Yunting, but to use Guo Zhenzhen to get Huo Yunting and Xiao Muzhen back together.
To her, Xiao Muzhen is her best friend. How could she help a woman she had just met?
I turned around and walked into the villa, before I put my things down, I received a call from Cheng Shumin.
"Yiyi, I heard that you returned to China. Why didn't you come to see me and your dad?"
"I just arrived last night and planned to visit you and dad this afternoon."
Huo Yiyi was overwhelmed by the thought of being nagged by Cheng Shumin later. She had no interest in being in charge of the Huo Group at all, okay?!
Besides, her brother has already given her 10% of Huo's shares. She can spend all the money even if she lies down and does nothing for the rest of her life. Why does she have to work?
"good."
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Huo Yiyi walked into the ward holding a bouquet of flowers.
"Mom, I'm here to see you."
Seeing her, Cheng Shumin's face lit up at first, then she snorted coldly, "You still remember me as your mother? If I hadn't called you, you definitely wouldn't have come to see me, right?"
Huo Yiyi walked to the bedside and placed the flowers on the table, smiling and saying, "How is that possible? Look, I brought your favorite lilies. When I was abroad, I was always thinking about you and Dad. When I knew you were captured by Huo Tianyi, I was almost worried to death."
"Haha, do you think I will believe it?"
Huo Yiyi sat down beside the bed with a helpless look on her face. "Really, it seems like you're recovering well. Where's Dad? Is he next door?"
"Um."
Cheng Shumin looked at her, her expression suddenly becoming serious. "What do you think about what I told you before?"
Huo Yiyi felt a headache when she heard this and quickly said, "Mom, please let me go. I really have no interest in doing business. Besides, Huo's company is what I have built step by step over the years. Even if he handed the company over to me now, the shareholders would not pay attention to me."
"That's because you don't have any ambition at all. As long as you want, I will definitely let my people help you!"
Looking at Cheng Shumin's whimsical and innocent appearance, Huo Yiyi said coldly: "You don't have to say it. Anyway, I will not compete with my brother for Huo's. If you want to get Huo's so much, you can go and grab it yourself."
Cheng Shumin was so angry that her face turned pale. She gritted her teeth and said, "What kind of nonsense are you talking about? How old am I?!"
"You are not old, you are in your prime now. If you really want to get the Huo family that much, then go and plan it yourself. Instead of forcing me, why don't you do it yourself?"
Cheng Shumin: “…”
If Huo Yiyi wasn't her daughter, she would have started cursing at such a stubborn person.
Seeing her unhappy expression, Huo Yiyi quickly comforted her, "Mom, you're just looking for trouble. You've been with my brother for so many years. Just because he's not your biological son, do you hate him so much that you even want me to seize power?"
“You don’t understand!”
How could other people's sons be compared with her own biological son? Before she knew that he was not her biological son, she was fearless in everything she did, thinking that Huo Yunting would indulge her.
But after knowing that he was not her biological son, Cheng Shumin no longer had the confidence she had before.
But she could not accept this gap and could only transform this imbalance into hatred and disgust towards Huo Yunting.
Huo Yiyi rolled her eyes in annoyance. "Yeah, I don't understand. I only know that even though you've been so cold to me these past few years, he never gave up on you. If it weren't for him this time, do you think you and Dad would still be able to recover here safely?!"
"He owes us all this. If it weren't for him, your father and I wouldn't have been arrested by Huo Tianyi!"
Listening to Cheng Shumin's fallacies, Huo Yiyi finally couldn't help but raise her voice and said, "Mom, do you even know what you're talking about?! Huo Tianyi thought you and Dad were the murderers of your uncle and aunt, so he attacked the Huo family and your brother. If it weren't for you, none of this would have happened."
"It was you and Dad who wronged my brother, why are you blaming him now?!"
Cheng Shumin was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "Huo Yiyi, what do you mean? Are you going to criticize me for an outsider?!"
"He's not an outsider, he's my brother. Although we're not related by blood, the memories he protected me from before are real, and he fulfilled his duty as a brother."
Seeing the determination in Huo Yiyi's eyes, Cheng Shumin couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.
"I didn't expect he would brainwash you so thoroughly. Are you being worthy of your brother who died at birth by calling him brother?!"
Huo Yiyi looked calm as she spoke to Cheng Shumin, emphasizing each word. "I know my biological brother's premature death was a huge blow to you, but it wasn't my brother's fault. He was kept in the dark for over twenty years. Mom, if anyone is to blame, it should be Dad. It has nothing to do with my brother."
Cheng Shumin was so angry that her face turned pale. She angrily said, "Alright, I don't want to hear this. Go back. You're grown up now. I can't control you anymore. But I have my own ideas about this matter. Don't try to persuade me!"
Seeing her determined expression, Huo Yiyi didn't plan to say anything else. If she wanted to change Cheng Shumin's hatred towards Huo Yunting, she needed to take it slowly and not be impatient.
"Mom, take good care of yourself. I'll come see you tomorrow."
Cheng Shumin turned her head away and said coldly, "No need. Let's meet again after we've both calmed down a bit."
Huo Yiyi was silent for a long time, and finally just sighed, "Okay."
