Chapter 630: Ungrateful
After sending him upstairs, Xiao Muzhen left.
On the other side, the office of President Huo.
Chi Zhen stood in front of Huo Yunting's desk with a flattering smile on his face.
"Mr. Huo, this cooperation is beneficial to the Huo Group. As long as the Huo Group agrees to cooperate, making tens of millions will not be a problem."
Huo Yunting held a document in his hand, his face expressionless.
"Boss Chi, I'm not interested. Go find someone else to cooperate with."
Seeing Huo Yunting throw the documents on the table without any interest, Chi Zhen immediately panicked. If he couldn't get this cooperation, the Chi Group would be really finished.
"Mr. Huo, what are you dissatisfied with? If it's about profits, we can talk about it. It's okay for Chi to earn less... as long as..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted coldly by Huo Yunting.
"Boss Chi, no matter how much you offer in concessions, Huo's will no longer cooperate with Chi's."
Chi Zhen was stunned for a moment, "Then why did you agree to see me?"
Huo Yunting looked at him with coldness in his eyes.
"I just want to tell you that you don't need to bother trying to save the Chi family. The Chi family is doomed to go bankrupt, and no one will risk offending the Huo and Xiao families to help you."
The astonishment on Chi Zhen's face instantly turned into anger, and he pointed at Huo Yunting.
"Huo Yunting, I was once your father-in-law after all. And when you got involved with Mu Zhen or Xuan Xuan, I didn't do anything to you. Are you trying to burn bridges now?!"
There was no expression on Huo Yunting's face.
"Mr. Chi, you and Mrs. Chi knew exactly what you did to Xiao Muzhen. Besides, Chi Xuan and I have never done anything that crossed the line."
"I'm really dealing with the Chi family for Xiao Muzhen, because you've never reflected on yourself or apologized to her properly!"
Chi Zhen sneered, "What qualifications do you have to blame me? The Chi family treated Mu Zhen badly in the past because you, as a husband, didn't take her seriously. If you had paid more attention to her, the Chi family wouldn't have dared to neglect her!"
Huo Yunting's pupils suddenly shrank, and a hint of pain welled up in his eyes.
Of course he knew that he was the culprit.
So he has been punished now, and he has lost Xiao Muzhen forever.
Thinking of this, Huo Yunting felt cold all over his body.
"You can go now."
Chi Zhen stared at him coldly, and said word by word, "As long as I ask for Xiao Muzhen's forgiveness, will you let Chi go?"
"She won't forgive you."
Chi Zhen didn't say anything else, turned around and left.
When Xiao Muzhen returned home, she saw Chi Zhen standing at the door, who seemed to have been waiting for quite some time.
She parked the car, opened the door, and got out expressionlessly.
She was originally planning to ignore Chi Zhen, but he didn't give her the chance and walked up to her as soon as he saw her.
"Mu Zhen, you're finally back."
Xiao Muzhen looked at him expressionlessly, "Mr. Chi, do you have something to talk to me about?"
Chi Zhen rubbed his hands awkwardly and said sincerely, "Mu Zhen, it was Dad who was confused before, so he was partial to Xuan Xuan. Your mother's death this time made me suddenly wake up... I am not worthy of being a father. If you are willing to give me a chance to make amends, I will definitely make up for the fatherly love I lacked before."
Xiao Muzhen found it a little funny. When she longed for the love of her parents, Chi Zhen and Xu Rou turned a blind eye.
Now she didn't care, and they all rushed to make amends to her.
"No need, we have severed our relationship a long time ago, and don't bother me again in the future."
Seeing that Xiao Muzhen was unmoved, Chi Zhen quickly said, "Today is your mother's funeral. No matter how much you hate her, you must go to the funeral, otherwise she will die with her eyes wide open."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Muzhen looking at him with a mocking expression.
A hint of guilt flashed in his eyes, and he felt embarrassed that Xiao Muzhen had seen through him.
"Mu Zhen, why are you looking at me like that... I mean what I said."
"Really?"
Xiao Muzhen smiled, but her words were extremely cold. "I heard that you gave Ms. Xu a very simple funeral, and you didn't even attend. Now you come to me and act hypocritical. Do you think it's funny?"
Seeing that his self-torture trick didn't work, Chi Zhen finally revealed his true colors.
"Mu Zhen, I came here today because I want you to help me talk to Huo Yunting and ask him to spare Chi's company, otherwise Chi's company will go bankrupt."
"What does that have to do with me?"
Seeing her indifferent expression, Chi Zhen became a little anxious and said quickly: "I don't have a son, and I don't know where your sister is now. From now on, you will be the legal heir of the Chi family. Helping me is also helping yourself..."
"No need, I have no interest in the Chi family."
She turned around and was about to leave, but Chi Zhen gritted his teeth and said, "Do you want me to kneel down in front of you and beg you before you help me?"
Xiao Muzhen looked back at him and said, "Even if you kneel before me, I won't help you."
Knowing that what Xiao Muzhen said was true, Chi Zhen finally couldn't help but yelled angrily, "You are so ungrateful! When that Feng Shui master said that you would destroy the Chi family, I should have drowned you! Now not only have you killed your mother, but you are also bankrupting the Chi Group. You are simply an evildoer!"
Xiao Muzhen's eyes turned cold and she stared at Chi Zhen's hand that was pointing at her.
"Mr. Chi, Ms. Xu committed suicide. I didn't force her to die. And the Chi Group went bankrupt because you were unable to hold on to that little piece of land. It has nothing to do with me."
"To be honest, Chi Xuan was the one who offended Huo Yunting and prevented him from helping the Chi family. Moreover, your child was also made a fool by Chi Xuan. Tell me, did the Feng Shui master make a mistake in his calculations?"
Chi Zhen was shocked, and when he thought about what had happened at home in the past few years, his face became extremely ugly.
Unexpectedly, he actually believed the Feng Shui master's words. Xiao Muzhen felt it was ridiculous and pathetic, so he turned around and went home directly.
After dinner, Xiao Muzhen hesitated for a while and finally called Ke Ning.
"Secretary Ke, please tell Mr. Huo that he doesn't have to do anything for me, and I won't thank him. Also, when he's free, we can get the divorce certificate."
Although her current identity is Xiao Muzhen, she always feels that if this matter is not dealt with, unnecessary trouble will arise in the future.
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and then Huo Yunting's voice sounded.
"I'm always available."
"Tomorrow morning, then."
"good."
The next morning, Xiao Muzhen was waiting for Huo Yunting at the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
When Huo Yunting arrived, she had been waiting for a while.
"Sorry, there was a bit of traffic. Were you waiting long?"
Xiao Muzhen didn't want to engage in meaningless small talk with him, and said indifferently: "It's okay, let's go in."
