Chapter 623: High Spirits
Shen Tian looked at him indifferently until he finished speaking, then a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Wen Qinghe, you think too highly of yourself. I didn't get pregnant with this child to get revenge on you. I just wanted to have a child of my own."
Wen Qinghe's face turned pale, his eyes were scarlet, and he unconsciously grabbed Shen Tian's wrist.
"How is that possible? Do you really have no feelings for me at all?!"
"No more, not a single bit left."
Shen Tian looked calm, and there was no trace of sadness in her eyes.
The day Wen Qinghe pushed her down the stairs for another woman, there was no possibility between them anymore.
Seeing the determination in his eyes, Wen Qinghe smiled bitterly.
"I'm sorry for you, and I deserve it for treating me like this... But I still want to ask you to give me a chance..."
Shen Tian pushed his hand away and said expressionlessly: "What's past is past. Don't appear in front of me again."
"I won't give up. Even if you won't forgive me now, I can stay by your side until the day you are willing to forgive me!"
He looked determined, but in Shen Tian's eyes, he seemed a little ridiculous.
"Wen Qinghe, you don't have to do this. It's hard to mend a broken mirror. I could completely draw a line between me and Jin Yi back then, and now I can completely end it with you. No matter what you do for me, it's just self-satisfaction. I won't give you another chance to start over."
After saying that, without caring about Wen Qinghe's expression, Shen Tian turned around and left.
She thought that she should have made everything clear to Wen Qinghe this time, and he should not bother her again in the future.
Huo's CEO's office.
Huo Yunting was reading a document when the phone on the table suddenly rang.
When he saw it was Su Baitian, his eyes darkened.
"I've given you the antidote for a while now. Isn't it time for you to fulfill your promise and hand the person over to me?"
"Okay, I'll have Koning send the person over later."
After hanging up the phone, Huo Yunting called Ke Ning into the office and asked, "Where is that woman being held now?"
"In the villa in Cuiyuan, I sent someone to watch it."
"Go over there right now and send the person to the Su family."
Ke Ning frowned, "Mr. Huo, she has Su Baitian's leverage. If she falls into Su Baitian's hands, she probably won't be able to leave the Su family alive."
Huo Yunting looked indifferent, "It has nothing to do with me."
Even if it wasn't him, Su Baitian would find her sooner or later.
If anyone is to be blamed, it's only because she followed Guo Lin and found out secrets that she shouldn't have known.
After a moment of silence, Ke Ning lowered his head and said, "Okay, I understand."
Half an hour later, Huo Yunting received a call from Ke Ning.
"Mr. Huo, that woman said she wants to see you. She has something to tell you. It's about... your mother."
A hint of surprise flashed in Huo Yunting's eyes. Huo Pingting had been missing for so many years. How could that woman know that she was his mother?
"I'll be right there."
When the black Maybach stopped at the door of a villa in Cuiyuan, a Mercedes-Benz followed closely behind.
Soon, Su Baitian's secretary got out of the car.
"Boss Huo, Boss Su asked me to come pick someone up."
"I have a few more words to say to her."
Seeing Huo Yunting was about to go in, the other party reached out to stop him, with a smile on his face, but no warmth in his eyes.
"Mr. Huo, this is probably against the rules. You should know that if you don't keep your promise, Miss Xiao's safety may not be guaranteed."
Hearing this, Huo Yunting's eyes turned cold.
The two of them were in a stalemate for a while before he spoke coldly, "Ke Ning, bring the person over!"
Soon, Ke Ning brought the person to Su Baitian's secretary.
"Go back and tell President Su that if anything happens to Xiao Muzhen, I won't let him go!"
The secretary didn't say anything else and just left with his men.
"Mr. Huo, what that woman said about your mother..."
Before he could finish his words, Huo Yunting interrupted him coldly, "Just pretend you haven't heard anything about this."
On the other side, after the car left Cuiyuan, the secretary immediately called Su Baitian.
"Boss Su, the person has been picked up."
"Get rid of it, and remember to do it cleanly."
After hanging up the phone, Su Baitian finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the huge stone that had been pressing on his heart finally fell to the ground.
As long as this woman dies, no one will be able to threaten him anymore.
Thinking of this, Su Baitian showed a relaxed smile on his face.
…
Late at night, the Tang family's servant carried a sack into the basement.
After the sack was untied, a pale-faced woman suddenly appeared in front of Tang Ruze. Her eyes were full of panic and she was obviously very scared.
Tang Ruze sat on a chair not far from her, looking at her with a smile on his face.
"Su Baitian is so anxious to get rid of you, you must have some leverage over him, right?"
The woman looked up in panic and shook her head quickly, "I don't know what you are talking about..."
The smile on Tang Ruze's lips slowly faded, and his eyes became extremely cold.
"I have no patience, so you better tell me everything you know."
"No... I really don't know anything, please let me go..."
Tang Ruze stood up with a cold expression and said coldly, "I want to hear the answer to that question from her before tomorrow."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Screams were heard from behind him, but the expression on his face remained unchanged.
On the other side, the Su family study.
"Have they dealt with it?"
The secretary lowered his head, hiding the guilt in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "It has been handled."
"That's fine. You've worked hard today. Go back and rest."
"OK."
The secretary turned and left, and only breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the Su family.
If Su Baitian had continued to question him, he would definitely have told the truth.
Thinking of the consequence, his face turned pale unconsciously.
But the matter was finally dealt with. All we had to do was find that woman and deal with her secretly.
The next morning, as soon as Tang Ruze came downstairs, he saw the housekeeper standing beside him.
"What's wrong?"
"Master, that woman said that she only knew that Huo Pingting was Huo Yunting's biological mother, and that Huo Pingting had been with Su Baitian in the past. She didn't know anything else."
Tang Ruze's eyes flashed with surprise, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? There is such a thing?"
Since she can threaten Su Baitian, Huo Pingting must be investigated thoroughly.
"Go check this woman's background, as soon as possible."
"OK."
After the butler left, a servant came in from the door holding an invitation.
"Mr. Tang, this is the invitation from the Shi family."
Tang Ruze took it and took a look at it, then smiled with interest. It turned out to be the engagement invitation of Xiao Muzhen and Shi Yiheng. Maybe there would be something interesting to watch then.
"Got it, go prepare a gift."
