Chapter 138 Everything is just the beginning
Mr. Huo's face changed immediately and he quickly asked his bodyguards to arrest Huo Tianlei.
"You beast!" said Mr. Huo, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
After Huo Tianlei was caught by the bodyguard, he kept shaking his head: "Let me go! Do you know who I am? Let me go!"
Old Master Huo slapped him: "You bastard! Who told you to talk nonsense after drinking?"
Huo Tianlei yelled, "What nonsense am I talking about? Everything I said is true! Dad, was it you who said that you hated my brother back then?"
Old Master Huo's face turned pale and blue.
In some wealthy families, the complicated relationships are actually no different from those in palace fighting dramas.
Accidents are most likely to happen when the father is strong and the son is healthy.
Back then, Mr. Huo was still young and held great power in the family.
Since the eldest son got married, his fame has grown and he has been increasingly respected by the outside world.
On many decisions, his ideas are different from those of the old man.
The old man is used to having the final say in the group. He can't stand any disobedience and hates it most when others go against him.
Sometimes, some ideas proposed by the eldest son would be regarded by the old man as the son becoming too powerful and trying to seize his power.
In addition, although the youngest son Huo Tianlei is a waste, he and his daughter-in-law are both sweet-talking and make the old man and the old lady very happy.
In comparison, the eldest son and his wife looked like a pair of disgusting logs.
If this continues, much of the Huo family's wealth will easily fall into the hands of the eldest son.
Therefore, although Mr. Huo did not say anything, he saw everything that Huo Tianlei and his wife did to the eldest brother and his wife.
Huo Wenyi said coldly: "So that's how it is. After my parents passed away, it was my uncle and aunt who abandoned me outside."
Mr. Huo quickly explained: "Wen Yi, listen to me, your uncle is drunk and he is talking nonsense. How can you believe his drunken nonsense?"
Jiang Qia said, "If this hadn't happened, would Uncle have mentioned it when he got drunk? Who would bring up something that happened over 20 years ago as a drunken topic of conversation?"
As soon as Jiang Qia finished speaking, everyone present began to discuss in low voices.
That’s indeed the case. If this didn’t happen, why would Huo Tianlei bring this up after getting drunk?
You know, this happened more than 20 years ago.
"Grandpa, as Brother Wen Yi's wife, I must say that you are really too partial."
Jiang Shi publicly accused him, "It was clearly my uncle who slandered Brother Wen Yi online, but you asked us to forgive him. Now you are making excuses for my uncle and aunt."
Parents with two or more children are more likely to be partial to one child.
Sometimes the eldest son is favored, and sometimes the younger son is favored.
But many times, favoritism is just about trivial matters. The Huo family was so outrageous that they threw their eldest son's only child outside.
This is outrageous!
Mr. Huo used to favor Huo Tianlei, and now he favors Huo Xiulin.
It was clearly Huo Xiulin who did something wrong, but Old Master Huo shamelessly asked Huo Wenyi to forgive him in public, trying to pass over the matter lightly.
The most important thing is that in many families, parents are partial to one of their sons, and the other son is filial, but the daughter-in-law can see it clearly.
Now that Jiang Qia, as Huo Wenyi's wife, has revealed this fact in public, it is useless for Mr. Huo to argue.
To be honest, Jiang Cha really couldn't understand what was going on.
No one knows why Huo Tianlei suddenly jumped out and self-destructed.
Even if she doesn't understand the ins and outs of the matter, she will still stand on her husband's side.
The interests of his own small family are more important than the so-called respectability of the Huo family.
The Huo family doesn’t care about Huo Wenyi anymore, so why should I care about them?
Shang Xinmei's eyes were blazing with anger. "Grandpa, you're going too far! You even treat your own child like this. How can you be honest in business in the future? I will never have anything to do with people like you again!"
After she finished speaking, some other people who wanted to please Huo Wenyi also said the same thing.
Even though some neutral people didn't say anything, the balance was quietly reversed.
Huo Wenyi's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness: "Old man, everything that happened before was because you have wronged me. From now on, we will no longer have any ties of friendship."
Then his counterattack against the Huo family could be made public from now on.
Old Madam Huo was very angry. She couldn't stand the fact that so many people were on Huo Wenyi's side. She said angrily, "He's your grandfather! Huo Wenyi, how could you speak to him like that?"
Huo Xiulin's face turned pale and red.
What his father said today completely disgraced him.
Everything Huo Xiulin enjoys is based on the destruction of Huo Wenyi's family.
However, Huo Xiulin still felt a little unconvinced.
He believes that what his parents do has nothing to do with him.
Huo Xiulin said, "Brother, even though my parents treated you badly before, you still managed to survive and live a better life than you did in the Huo family. If my parents hadn't kicked you out, you wouldn't be where you are today. You shouldn't take those things from the past to heart."
Jiang Qia asked, "Survived? Huo Xiulin, do you know what life Huo Wenyi lived before? If your child is born and thrown out to wander before the age of three, would you be willing to do that?"
What everyone sees now is Huo Wenyi, a mature, steady and successful man who is nearly thirty years old.
Today, Huo Wenyi stands here strong, elegant, and graceful, so everyone thinks he is living a good life.
Some people even think that it is precisely because of so many years of hard work that Huo Wenyi has achieved such great success and created a business empire.
Perhaps some people think exactly the same as Huo Xiulin, believing that Huo Wenyi’s success is due to the actions of Huo Tianlei and his wife.
The reality is not the case.
The people present are all elites in the industry, and many of them are parents.
But if you tell them that they are throwing their child, who is less than three years old, into a strange city thousands of miles away, letting the child grow up in a sea of people, and that one day the child will come back with a fortune, they will definitely not agree.
Everyone would rather their children live an ordinary life when they grow up than let them go through so much pain.
If glory can only be forged from the abyss of darkness, then it is better not to have this glory.
Besides, Huo Wenyi can get to where he is today not because of painful experiences. Many more painful people died on the road.
Now that things have come to this, and no one in the Huo family has admitted their mistake, there is nothing more to say.
Huo Wenyi said: "Old man, you guys take care of yourself."
It's not over yet.
It's just the beginning.
Huo Wenyi hugged Jiang Qia and walked out.
When the other guests saw Huo Wenyi leave, they all tried to avoid the people from the Huo family and quickly followed him out.
The banquet that was originally filled with laughter and joy soon became reduced to a floor of lights and sparse figures.
