Even the first time he lent a helping hand to Su Yaoyao was because he recognized her identity, knew she was Yu Chiyan's woman, and deliberately approached her.
Every time after that, he was always the first to lend a helping hand to Su Yaoyao, because Su Yaoyao had always lived under his surveillance and scheming.
From the very beginning, he approached Su Yaoyao because she was Yu Chiyan's possession. Initially, he was just curious about what kind of person Yu Chiyan's woman was, but later, he discovered that Yu Chiyan's feelings for Su Yaoyao were unusual. So, he maliciously thought about what would happen if he took away what Yu Chiyan liked.
Perhaps it was because I did more things and said more things later on that I started to take things seriously when I couldn't get them.
When he risked his own safety to sow discord between Su Yaoyao and Yu Chiyan, he knew that he might have really fallen for Su Yaoyao and couldn't wait to take her away from Yu Chiyan.
"Young Master, what's wrong?"
Seeing Huo Xiting's expression turn ugly, Zhang Wei couldn't help but ask a question.
Huo Xiting pulled his thoughts out of his memories, clenched his fist, and his expression returned to calm.
"It's alright, Uncle Zhang. Just focus on recovering. I'll send someone to investigate the background of the people who were chasing you."
Zhang Wei nodded, and then a solemn expression appeared on his aged face.
"By the way, young master, could you tell me how you've been living all these years?"
Back when the Huo family was still around, Huo Xiting was the apple of everyone's eye. Zhang Wei was just a young man then, and he also adored the young Huo Xiting. Thinking about all the suffering he had endured over the years, Zhang Wei felt a pang of sadness.
Huo Xiting was silent for two seconds, but finally told Uncle Zhang what had happened over the years, and also how he was adopted by Yu Qing.
Upon hearing Yu Qing's name, Zhang Wei immediately frowned. "Young Master, he's from the Yu family. If he knew about the relationship between Second Young Master Yu and the Huo family from the beginning, why would he have saved you?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Xiting's eyes narrowed slightly. "At that time, he didn't know I was a member of the Huo family. The year he found out about my identity was when I was eighteen years old. It was during my investigation of the Yu family that he discovered it, so I confessed to him."
But to my surprise, he told me that he was the eldest son of the Yu family head. He said that everything in the Yu family should belong to him. But unexpectedly, the old lady of the Yu family would rather leave everything in the Yu family to a half-dead cripple.
Instead, he kicked him out, even though he was supposed to be his son. Then he met me, and I'm his nominal son. His future depends on me. He said if I want revenge, he can help me; if I want the Yu family, he can help me; he can give me anything I want.
Hearing this, Zhang Wei was deeply moved; "Back then, there were no rumors of any internal conflicts within the Yu family, so how could Yu Qing have been expelled from the Yu family...?"
For a moment, Zhang Wei didn't know what to say.
Upon hearing this, Huo Xiting's eyes deepened; "I don't know, it might be related to the Yu family's secrets."
Zhang Wei thought about it again and realized that there was some truth to it.
After chatting for a while, Huo Xiting finally suggested leaving.
Before leaving, he reminded Zhang Wei to take good care of his injuries, and then opened the door and went out.
When Wen Qing saw Huo Xiting come out, a look of joy immediately appeared on her face.
"Mr. Huo, you're out. What did Mr. Zhang say?"
Huo Xiting glanced at the closed door and lowered his voice.
"Go down and talk."
Wen Qing immediately understood. He nodded, and the two of them entered the elevator one after the other, went into the underground parking lot, and got into a black Maybach.
Wen Qing got into the driver's seat, and only after Huo Xiting got into the back seat did he ask a question.
"Mr. Huo, do you not trust Zhang Wei?"
Huo Xiting rolled up his sleeves, revealing an expensive watch on his wrist. Hearing Wen Qing's words, he didn't even raise his head, and simply said something.
"Don't you think it's a bit too coincidental that Zhang Wei is appearing in Nancheng now?"
Wen Qing was puzzled; "Mr. Huo, what do you mean?"
"According to Zhang Wei, he has been hunted down all these years. Have you ever thought about how he, as just a driver, managed to evade the pursuit all these years, and how he was able to return to Nancheng at this critical juncture, and coincidentally, crash into my car while on the run?"
Wen Qing fell silent upon hearing this; "So, how does President Huo plan to handle this matter?"
Huo Xiting smiled, his cold, handsome face displaying an inscrutable expression.
"We need to find a way to keep it from our godfather for now."
Wen Qing was somewhat surprised. It seemed that although President Huo did not believe Zhang Wei on the surface, he still had some doubts in his heart.
"Should we investigate why Zhang Wei is in Nancheng?"
Huo Xiting smiled upon hearing this; "No need, I have a rough idea of how the people got here."
Wen Qing was puzzled; "What does President Huo mean?"
After a while, Huo Xiting's soft voice echoed in the carriage.
"Yu Chiyan should be quite free these days. I'll prepare some wine tonight and see if he's willing to give me face."
The young man's expression shifted slightly, and he vaguely guessed what was going on...
