Just then, the doctor finished examining the old man.
Huo Jiayuan helped to button up the old man's clothes.
"Doctor, is my grandfather alright?"
The doctor put away his instruments. "What's wrong with the old man...?"
Before the doctor could speak, the old man asked, "Why did you come so early in the morning?"
The old man looked at Pei Zhi: "Zhizhi, don't you need to go to work today?"
Pei Zhi joked, "He was so worried yesterday that he didn't sleep all night. If I dare to go to work today, he'll probably kill me."
The old man was amused by Pei Zhi, but then he started coughing incessantly.
Huo Jiayuan quickly brought over some hot water, gave the old man a sip, and patted his back.
Pei Zhi watched Huo Jiayuan serving her so carefully and couldn't help but sigh, "The young master actually knows how to take care of people!"
Although I'm a bit clumsy.
After the old man felt a little better, he said to the maid beside him, "Go and make a call to Ah Li and Qian Qian and bring them all back."
The old man looked at Pei Zhi and said, "Perfect timing. With so many people here today, I have something to announce."
Huo Jiayuan didn't understand. "Grandpa, if you have something to say, can't you wait until you're feeling better?"
"The most important thing for you now is to get some rest."
The old man shook his head, "It's not easy to get all of you here."
Huo Jiayuan thought his grandfather was complaining that he didn't come home often enough. "Grandpa, I'll go pack some things in a bit and move back in. I'll live here and take care of you, okay?"
"Nonsense!" the old man scolded. "You're married now, how can you still live at home? If word gets out, people will laugh at you."
Huo Jiayuan didn't understand. "Even if I'm married, this is still my home. Why is it a laughing stock for me to come back and live here?"
Huo Jiayuan didn't understand, but Pei Zhi did.
She stepped forward and patted Huo Jiayuan on the shoulder, signaling him to shut up.
"If the old man has something to announce, then we'll just listen."
Huo Li had just arrived at the company and hadn't even entered her office when she was called back by a phone call.
She thought the old man was unwell and rushed back breathlessly.
Huo Jiaxi did the same; she turned back halfway home.
The old man had Huo Jiayuan help him to the study, and sent the servants away. In the study, there were only a few members of the Huo family and Pei Zhi.
The old man sat down in the chair and waited until his breathing calmed down before speaking.
"Although the Huo family has quite a few members, you are the only true relatives."
The old man looked at Huo Jiayuan and said, "Your father still has a branch office overseas. He didn't tell him about my illness, but it's the same for you to be here."
The old man gestured to Huo Li to open the safe.
Huo Li stepped forward and took a document out of the safe.
This document is the old man's will.
"I don't know how much longer I can live with this body, so I want to avoid you all fighting over this inheritance after I die."
The old man sighed, "Why don't we distribute them while I'm still alive?"
"Grandpa, don't talk nonsense. What will or anything?"
"Jiayuan, let me finish what I have to say first."
Pei Zhi saw that Huo Li had opened the safe, and she already had a clear idea of how the will would be distributed.
Inside the house, only Huo Jiayuan acted like a fool, showing concern for the old man.
The old man took the document and opened it.
"My lawyer has already compiled a list of all the real estate and properties under my name."
The old man first looked at Huo Jiaxi, "I will divide these properties into three parts. Since Jiaxi is not married yet, she will take two parts."
"I don't know if I'll ever see Xixi get married. At most, it'll be a wedding gift from Grandpa to you and your future husband."
"The remaining share will go to Jia Yuan. Jia Yuan, you don't have any objections, do you?"
Huo Jiayuan shook his head, "No, I have no objection to how Grandpa distributes it."
The old man nodded with satisfaction, "I still have some money in my account, not much, just a few tens of millions."
"I'll leave this money to Jia Yuan's father. You don't have any objections, do you?"
Huo Li shook his head, "Dad, this property is yours. We have no objection to how you divide it."
Finally, there are the company shares.
"I own 34 percent of the company's shares."
"Twenty percent is for Huo Li. From now on, everything in the company depends on you."
Huo Li already knew the contents of the will, so he remained calm at this moment.
"Ten percent, you can keep it temporarily, and transfer it to her name before Sisi gets married and remarries."
Huo Li nodded, "Dad, don't worry, I will do whatever you say."
"There's also 4% of the shares, which Jia Yuan and his father will split equally. That's all the content of the will."
Pei Zhi, who was waiting to the side, lowered her eyes and sneered.
Pei Zhi stood up and said, "Grandpa, your will has been read and I've heard it all. I have things to do at the company, so I'll be leaving now."
How could Pei Zhi not understand the old man's intention?
The reason for announcing the will in front of her was simply to prevent her from fighting for it later for Huo Jiayuan's sake.
The old man nodded: "Alright, there's nothing else, you can go ahead and get back to work."
Pei Zhi looked at Huo Jiayuan, "Jiayuan, do you want to come back with me? There are still things to do at home."
"I have something to tell Jia Yuan that I'm not going."
Pei Zhi stared at Huo Jiayuan, who looked at his grandfather and then at Pei Zhi.
"You go first, I want to stay with Grandpa."
Huo Jiayuan's mind was now completely blank.
He was somewhat confused by his grandfather's will.
Reason told Huo Jiayuan that he shouldn't fight for it; it belonged to his grandfather.
Grandpa can give it to whomever he wants; he can't blame Grandpa.
Everyone knows that the company's shares are the majority.
Of the 34% of the shares, my aunt and sister each received 30%.
He and his father could only get a small fraction of the money.
It's impossible to say that Huo Jiayuan had no ulterior motives.
"Okay." Pei Zhi's lips curled slightly, her voice also carrying a hint of laziness. "Then you stay here and keep watch. Call me if anything happens."
Watching Pei Zhi turn and leave, Huo Jiayuan took two steps forward, wanting to leave with her.
He always felt that this place was no longer his home.
Indeed, it is no longer the case.
The will has already designated the house as belonging to Huo Jiaxi.
From then on, he didn't go back to his own home, but to Huo Jiaxi's house.
"Jiayuan, you won't blame Grandpa for distributing things this way, will you?"
Huo Jiayuan lowered his head and remained silent.
"Jiayuan, you are married to Peizhi, and you will have children with Peizhi in the future."
The old man earnestly said, "Everything in the Pei family will belong to your children; you don't lack any of these things."
Huo Jiayuan mustered his courage and asked, "What if Pei Zhi also gives all her assets to her daughter in the future? What will happen to my son?"
