Chapter 649 Huo Dongcheng is missing
A few simple greetings filled the air with a strong sense of tension between the two.
Wen Liang glanced at Fu Zheng when he heard that.
Is he staying tonight?
That's fine too.
Mason yawned, looking tired.
"Are you sleepy? Do you want to go upstairs and sleep?" Wen Liang asked.
"Yeah." Mason nodded gently, put down the chess piece in his hand, stood up with the help of the carpet, glanced at Huo Dongcheng, and whispered, "I still want to hear my mother tell stories."
"Okay, Mom will tell you a story."
Wen Liang took him upstairs.
Huo Dongcheng glanced at the two men's backs, simply tidied up the toys and flying chess on the carpet, stood up and said, "I won't entertain Mr. Fu, please do as you please."
As he said this, he walked towards the stairs.
After Mason washed up, he changed into his pajamas and lay down in bed. Wen Liang moved a chair to the head of the bed, turned to the second story in the storybook, and began to read with emotion.
Just after reading a few sentences, Huo Dongcheng came in quietly.
Wen Liang paused, and Huo Dongcheng gestured for her to continue. He slowly walked to the end of the bed and sat down, looking at Wen Liang's profile and listening carefully.
A gentle and melodious female voice echoed in the quiet room, flowing like a trickle of water.
The atmosphere in the room is harmonious and warm, with soft lights shining in every corner, giving people a sense of tranquility.
Huo Dongcheng sat quietly at the end of the bed, his eyes focused and gentle, as if he was enjoying the tranquility and warmth of the moment.
At some point, Mason's breathing gradually became even, and he fell asleep to the sound of the story.
The story comes to an end.
After reading the last sentence, Wen Liang gently closed the book, stood up, and gently put the chair back in its original position.
Huo Dongcheng also stood up. The two looked at each other and walked out quietly in tacit understanding.
As soon as she opened the door, Wen Liang saw Fu Zheng standing at the door of her room, leaning casually against the door frame, looking at her with eyes... a bit like catching someone cheating.
Just as she was about to say something, she heard Huo Dongcheng's voice behind her, "Aliang, you are so thoughtful. No wonder Mason likes you so much. The story is also very interesting. I hope I will have the chance to hear it again in the future."
Huo Dongcheng gently closed the door, with a gentle smile on his face, a faint arc at the corners of his mouth, and his eyes full of sincerity and warmth, like a tranquil lake, deep and clear, and the calmness seemed to contain endless affection and concern.
"...Brother Dongcheng, please stop praising me..."
If you praise Fu Zheng again, his face will become darker than the sky outside.
Huo Dongcheng glanced at Fu Zheng seemingly unintentionally, and smiled helplessly, "Okay, Aliang, I'll go rest first."
"Okay, goodbye, Dongcheng brother."
"Good night." Huo Dongcheng walked away steadily.
After his figure entered the room, Wen Liang looked at Fu Zheng, "Ahem...what are you doing standing here? Why don't you go in and rest?"
"Aren't I just afraid that you won't come out?" Fu Zheng said sourly, but he knew in his heart that as Wen Liang said, if she liked Huo Dongcheng, she could just dump him.
He was just worried that Huo Dongcheng was doing something bad to her.
Wen Liang walked into the room, raised an eyebrow and asked, "What would you do if I really didn't come out?"
"Of course I'll just rush in and drag you out."
As he spoke, Fu Zheng stuffed the phone into Wen Liang's arms.
"What is this?" Wen Liang looked carefully at the content on the screen. It seemed to be a fable.
"I heard you're a very good storyteller. I want to listen to some too."
Wen Liang: “…”
After a good night's sleep, when Wen Liang got up and went downstairs for breakfast the next day, Huo Dongcheng had already left.
…
Lin Jiamin has not yet found an opportunity to abort Xue Jun's child, so she can only try to delay it.
On the one hand, she asked Xiaolu to delay Xue Jun's visit to the hospital for a check-up, and on the other hand, she delayed Huo Junshan so that he had no time to go to Xue Jun's place.
Having been Mrs. Huo for so long, Lin Jiamin also has some businesses. She used the excuse of losses to ask Huo Junshan for advice and help, and asked Huo Junshan to accompany her to the beauty hospital for a consultation. In addition, after Huo Dongcheng left, Huo Junshan wanted to take this opportunity to consolidate power, so he frequently went back and forth to the Huo Group, so that he had no time to see Xue Jun in the past few days.
Xiao Lu also stopped Xue Jun and asked her to wait until her next rest day to go for a check-up.
On the third day of Huo Dongcheng's business trip, Huo Junshan received a call, and Lin Jiamin realized that her chance had come.
It was around eight o'clock in the evening. Lin Jiamin was in the study asking Huo Junshan questions about the industry. Huo Junshan answered her questions while showing off his charm and ability.
Suddenly the phone rang, and the caller ID showed that it was Xiao Ding, Huo Dongcheng's secretary, who was on a business trip to City C with Huo Dongcheng.
Huo Junshan stopped explaining and answered the phone. Xiao Ding's anxious voice came from the microphone, "Chairman, this is bad! President Huo is missing!"
Huo Junshan's heart tightened when he heard this, and he said in a deep voice, "Don't be anxious, tell me slowly, what's going on?"
Xiao Ding's voice was trembling, and he was breathing heavily, as if he had just been in a fight. "Vice President Wang invited us... to dinner at the club. I don't know what happened, but the club suddenly became chaotic. It seemed like someone was gathering to fight. We tried to leave, but someone stopped us. By the time we could get away, President Huo had disappeared... I suspect they were coming for President Huo..."
"Have you called the police?"
"The police have arrived, and a few who didn't escape have been caught red-handed, but they still haven't found Mr. Huo." Xiao Ding's voice was filled with fear and anxiety.
Huo Junshan's voice sounded much older. "I understand. I'll be there right away."
Watching Huo Junshan hang up the phone in a daze, Lin Jiamin asked softly, "Junshan, what's wrong? Did something happen in Dongcheng?"
Huo Junshan frowned, "He's missing."
He has a tense relationship with Huo Dongcheng, but Huo Dongcheng is his son after all, and he doesn't want anything to happen to Huo Dongcheng.
"Ah? How could this happen?" Lin Jiamin looked a little worried, and her heart was filled with surprise and joy.
Huo Junshan said nothing more. He took Lin Jiamin's hand and patted it. "I have to rush to City C. I'm relying on you at home."
Lin Jiamin said seriously, "Don't worry, I will take good care of the family. I hope Dongcheng is okay... I'll go help you pack your luggage."
The moment she turned around and walked out, Lin Jiamin couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips.
It’s really God’s help, isn’t this opportunity here?
It would be best if Huo Dongcheng never came back this time.
Twenty minutes later, Huo Junshan took his luggage to the airport and met up with his assistant.
At the same time, the matter also fermented on the Internet.
A news report used a video posted by netizens, saying that a suspected gang fight occurred in a club in City C.
In the video, several police cars and ambulances were parked downstairs of the club, and a cordon was set up. Many onlookers gathered not far away and did not dare to move forward.
Many netizens in the comment section claimed to be locals, saying that the incident was true and had spread throughout the local group. There were also rumors that many people had died.
Soon, the police issued a notice confirming that the attack had occurred, causing multiple injuries and one person missing. Several suspects have been arrested and the case is under investigation.
When the news became a hot topic, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening, and Wen Liang had already gone to bed with Mason.
Suddenly I was awakened by the ringing of my cell phone.
