A handsome and elegant man, dressed in a perfectly tailored bespoke suit, slowly stepped out from behind the revolving door.
Media reporters swarmed forward, but were firmly blocked by a human wall of security personnel just two meters away from Hochin.
The crowd moved quickly in unison with Huo Qin's steps.
The cold white flashlight shone on Hockin's sharply defined profile.
The man looked up, his cold, dark eyes staring directly at the source of the light.
The authoritative face, perfectly weathered by the distortion, suddenly stared directly at the camera with such intimidating power that the reporter froze and put down his camera.
"Mr. Huo, is Huo Corporation about to officially announce the new head of the household?"
A reporter tried to hold the microphone closer.
Huo Qin didn't even look up, his expression indifferent, and only gave them three words: "Wait for the statement."
The media was in an uproar.
Does this mean the wife of China's richest man is about to go public with her relationship?
Could she be Chaochao's biological mother?
Before anyone could learn more, the person in the spotlight had already boarded the car.
The engine started, and the car drove away smoothly.
Having spent so much time with Miss Chaochao, the driver was no longer so reserved with Huo Qin. This time, he sighed softly, "Mr. Huo, why don't you let me pick you up from the underground parking garage?"
Huo Qin flipped through the documents in his hand without looking up: "No need." He paused and added: "Go to Xianghe Pavilion first."
The only Xianghe Pavilion in City B is located in the southeast, almost in the opposite direction from the Huo Residence.
After the driver responded, he silently accelerated.
A moment later, Huo Qin stepped into the Huo residence carrying a box of freshly baked kidney bean rolls.
Because it's on the menu of the morning newspaper.
...
The internet exploded.
[Breaking News! Huo Group Chairman Gives First Direct Response to Rumors Regarding Chaochao's Birth Mother!]
[The Huo family's business empire – the matriarch is suspected to be making an appearance soon!]
Statements, etc.
When Huo Qin left the group's headquarters at noon, he only uttered three words in response to media inquiries, which have now been thoroughly discussed and covered by various marketing accounts and news media.
Within just one hour, countless press releases regarding "Foxconn's response to rumors" were circulating online. Some rational observers believe this is a typical "cold treatment" strategy, perhaps dragging it out until later with just a casual new product description.
Disguised as anti-fans, they use dog head symbols to subtly stir up trouble.
"Then let's go to the Huo family company's Weibo account every day for group activities and check-ins! How can a prestigious company like ours passively shirk its responsibilities?"
A bystander, always eager for drama, asked: "The Huo family has over a hundred core companies. Which one do you suggest we go to first?"
Gradually, more and more netizens felt that this was probably a PR tactic employed by the Huo family to handle the situation quietly.
So, at 1:30 p.m. that day, the Huo Group swiftly issued two official statements, which were like two thunderclaps that exploded across the entire internet!
Good news: Chaochao's birth mother was mentioned.
Bad news: There really is only a little bit.
The Huo Group has issued an official statement.
After mutual consultation, all legal rights of the child Huo Chaochao shall belong solely to the father, Huo Qin.
Also attached is a notarized "Declaration of Voluntary Waiver of Custody Rights"—
Ms. XX hereby declares that she voluntarily and permanently relinquishes her custody, guardianship and all parental rights over her child, Huo Chaochao, and will not assert any rights or obligations regarding visitation or support in the future.
The name of the person making the declaration has been blurred out to protect their privacy.
The brief, one-line statement bears a striking resemblance to Huo Qin's own three-word response at noon, making it hard not to suspect that the public relations department may have directly transcribed Huo's words.
Netizens, completely bewildered by the drama, were left wondering: "???"
Ber, did he just eat the female owner away?
The next second, the Huo Group's official Weibo account posted a second message. This time it was even more absurd, with absolutely no accompanying text.

Summary of the "Announcement of Resolutions of the Board of Directors of Huo's Group":
1. Effective immediately, Ms. Huo Chaochao Group will be granted 10% of its shares.
2. Ms. Huo Chaochao was established as the sole heir of the group.
At the end of the document, all directors signed to confirm, and the official seal was solemn and bright red.
The shocked netizens exclaimed: "!!!"
So, that sweet, cuddly little girl on the variety show, who was so good-natured she could be petted and pampered, has suddenly become the youngest billionaire and the future richest woman in China?!
There's no factional infighting, no siblings fighting over property, and no messy, melodramatic drama.
With direct legal heirs and equity as double guarantees, it's a done deal, and no one can shake it.
The second Weibo post from the Huo Group's official account was like the first shot of a grand fireworks display. The hundreds of Huo Group's businesses, which netizens had just been reviewing, immediately jumped on the bandwagon, with industry giants transforming into frenzied retweets and supporters.
