Chapter 291 The Dust Settles
“Grandpa, please don’t say that.” Fang Lanxin walked over. “Every family goes through this. The fact that the Huo family was able to pull through is the greatest victory.”
Grandpa Huo nodded.
"Qibang".
"grandfather."
"I'm so sorry about Tianle." Old Master Huo's eyes were a little red. "If I had paid more attention back then, he wouldn't have suffered so much."
Kenneth Fok knelt down, tears streaming down his face.
"Grandpa, it's not your fault."
"It's my fault." Old Master Huo shook his head. "I trusted my family too much, which gave those with ulterior motives an opportunity to take advantage of me."
"From now on, all matters concerning the Huo family will be handled by your mother."
What she says goes.
"yes."
Fang Lanxin helped Huo Qibang up.
"Grandpa, please get some rest. I'll handle things at the company."
"Um."
After leaving the old house, Kenneth Fok sat in the car without saying a word.
Fang Lanxin knew he was feeling bad.
Although the truth about Tianle has been found out, the child is still lying in the hospital.
"Qibang".
"Mother."
"The doctor said Tianle's condition is showing signs of improvement," Fang Lanxin said, holding her son's hand. "He will get better."
Huo Qibang nodded, and tears fell again.
"Mom, I hate myself."
"If I had paid more attention back then, Tianle wouldn't be what it is today."
"Silly child." Fang Lanxin hugged him. "It's not your fault."
"It's all those people's fault."
Kenneth Fok leaned on his mother's shoulder and cried like a child.
Fang Lanxin patted his back, tears welling up in her eyes.
In her past life, her relationship with Qibang was always strained.
A large part of the reason is related to Tianle.
Qibang always felt that it was because she hadn't taken good care of the child that the accident happened.
She felt guilty and couldn't face her son.
The two of them tormented each other like this for many years.
But in this life, she will not let that happen again.
"Qibang, how much of what Li Suyun said do you think is true?"
Kenneth Fok wiped away his tears and thought for a moment.
"It could be true."
"Why"
“My fourth uncle is a man who seems all smiles on the surface, but he’s actually more ruthless than anyone else,” Huo Qibang said. “And all these years he’s been wanting more say in things.”
"If he really was behind it, it makes sense."
Fang Lanxin nodded.
That was also her impression of her fourth uncle in her previous life.
Huo Zhenhong is a man who always presents himself as a nice guy.
But the more someone is like that, the more dangerous they are.
"Any news from Awen?"
Kenneth Fok took out his phone and looked at it.
"have."
He opened a text message.
"My fourth uncle met a man named Chen Laosan in Macau. This man runs a casino in Macau and is also the owner of an underground money exchange."
Fang Lanxin narrowed her eyes.
Underground banks.
It's another underground bank.
It seems that Fourth Uncle and Li Suyun really are a couple.
"Qibang, send someone to Macau to bring Fourth Uncle back."
"good."
When Fang Lanxin returned to the company, Huo Siya was already waiting for her in the office.
"Mom, we have news from the police."
"explain."
“Li Suyun confessed to some things, but they were all attempts to shirk responsibility,” Huo Siya said. “However, the police found some medicine in her home.”
"After testing, the components were found to be consistent with those detected in Tianle's body."
Fang Lanxin nodded.
In this way, Tianle's case can be reclassified.
“And another thing,” Huo Siya said, taking out another document. “I’ve discovered another secret about Fourth Aunt’s Swiss account.”
"What secret?"
“Not all the money in that account was transferred to overseas capital,” Huo Siya said. “Some of the money was transferred to another account.”
"The account holder is a boy named Huo Tianfu."
Fang Lanxin was stunned.
Huo Tianfu
“Yes,” Huo Siya said. “This child is ten years old and studies in Canada.”
His mother's surname was Chen.
Fang Lanxin's mind raced.
His surname is Chen.
Chen Laosan.
Could it be...?
"Siya, go and check Ms. Chen's detailed information."
“I’ve already checked.” Huo Siya pulled up the information. “This woman’s name is Chen Manli, she’s thirty-five years old, and a Canadian citizen.”
Eleven years ago, she met her fourth uncle while working in the port city.
"Later she got pregnant, and her fourth uncle gave her a sum of money so she could go to Canada to give birth."
Fang Lanxin gave a cold laugh.
It turns out that Fourth Uncle had an illegitimate child outside of marriage.
Does Fourth Aunt know about this?
“They probably don’t know,” Huo Siya said. “Fourth Uncle kept it a secret very well. If it weren’t for this audit, we wouldn’t have found out at all.”
Fang Lanxin leaned back in her chair.
Now all the clues have come together.
My fourth uncle has illegitimate children and needs a lot of money to support them.
So he had his fourth aunt transfer funds from the Huo family and instructed her to target Tianle, hoping to create chaos and seize power.
But he didn't expect that Fang Lanxin would be reborn.
It disrupted all his plans.
"Siya, keep all these documents," Fang Lanxin said. "When Fourth Uncle comes back, I'm going to settle accounts with him properly."
"good."
Three days later.
Huo Zhenhong was brought back from Macau.
He sat in the interrogation room, a smile still on his face.
"Lanxin, what happened? I just went to Macau for business, how did I get brought back?"
Fang Lanxin sat opposite him without saying a word.
She took out a document and placed it on the table.
"Fourth Uncle, take a look at this."
Huo Zhenhong picked up the document and quickly glanced through it.
His smile slowly froze.
“This is Li Suyun’s confession,” Fang Lanxin said. “She said that you instructed her to do Tianle’s thing.”
"She's talking nonsense!" Huo Zhenhong suddenly stood up. "Lanxin, you can't believe her!"
"That woman will tell any lie to get herself out of trouble!"
"Really?" Fang Lanxin took out another document. "And this one?"
The document contained Huo Tianfu's information.
There are also photos of Chen Manli.
Huo Zhenhong's face turned completely pale.
"Lanxin, you...you found out..."
“Yes, I found out everything.” Fang Lanxin stood up. “Fourth Uncle, I already know about your keeping an illegitimate child outside.”
"Over the years, most of the money you transferred from the Huo family went to that woman and child, didn't it?"
Huo Zhenhong slumped into a chair.
"Lanxin, I can explain..."
“No need to explain,” Fang Lanxin interrupted him. “I have no interest in your private life.”
"I just want to know, did you instigate Tianle's affair?"
Huo Zhenhong remained silent.
After a long while, he finally spoke.
"Lanxin, what happened back then... I was forced into it..."
"I just wanted Tianle to get some sleep so that Qibang wouldn't be able to focus on company matters..."
"Who knew there was a problem with the dosage of that medicine..."
Huo Qibang rushed in and punched Huo Zhenhong in the face.
"brute!"
His fists came one after another, and Huo Zhenhong was soon beaten black and blue.
Fang Lanxin did not stop her.
