Jian Xi replied, "Thank you."
Ji Chifeng replied, "You're welcome. This is what I should do."
Jian Xi entered the villa.
However, Huo Yanqing stayed behind under the hint of Ji Chifeng's gaze. His expression instantly became a little solemn. "Why, my mother's health …"
"No, your mother is fine." Ji Chifeng quickly interrupted Huo Yanqing. When he saw that his expression had relaxed, he continued, "How do you plan to solve your wife's problem?"
Huo Yanqing pinched his glabella with his slender fingers. He took out a cigarette box and lit it.
"Didn't you quit smoking? When did you start smoking again? "
Huo Yanqing took two puffs before speaking. "I started smoking when I found out that she's Xin 'er's mother."
Ji Chifeng could understand. Huo Yanqing probably smoked because he was under too much pressure. "Let me know if you need my help."
"Okay."
Ji Chifeng patted Huo Yanqing's shoulder. "I support you. Stick to what you love."
Huo Yanqing smiled faintly. "I will. Thank you."
"Go ahead. I'm leaving." Ji Chifeng waved his hand and left.
Huo Yanqing stood outside and finished his cigarette before going in. When he arrived at Yao Huiqin's room, Jian Xi and Yao Huiqin sat there quietly. The atmosphere was a little stifling. It seemed to make it hard to breathe.
Yao Huiqin looked at Huo Yanqing. He wanted to say something but stopped. In the end, he didn't say anything.
Huo Yanqing left after seeing Yao Huiqin. There were a lot of things waiting for him outside. The company, public opinion, everything was a mess. However, this man wasn't afraid. He was like a god of war. He accepted these 'challenges' one by one. He fought for love and didn't back down.
The matter continued to ferment. It was now the era of the Internet. Although the media and newspapers were suppressed by Huo Yanqing, he could not control the Internet. In addition, there were people who deliberately spread the news. Within three days, the whole city knew that Jian Xi and Shuxin were mother and daughter.
The shares of Huo Group had been falling since the day of the one-month-old celebration. They kept falling, and the shareholders started to make trouble. In fact, they hoped that Huo Yanqing would quickly cut ties with the mother and daughter. However, they were afraid of Huo Yanqing's cold aura and ruthless methods. They dared to think about it, but they didn't dare to say anything. They could only put more pressure on Huo Yanqing and ask him to come up with a countermeasure.
Shuxin stayed in the bedroom and didn't go out. Jian Xi came over to take care of her but she didn't open the door and let her leave. Later on, Mother Yun came over to take care of her three meals a day.
On this day, Shu Youkang came. Shuxin looked at the man who seemed to have lost a lot of weight. Her heart ached and she hugged him. "Father, have you not been eating properly recently?"
Shu Youkang's lips curled up slightly, but his eyes instantly became cloudy. He patted Shuxin's back gently. "I thought the first thing you would ask me would be if she's your mother."
Shuxin let go of Shu Youkang and pulled him to sit on the sofa. "Then is she?"
Shu Youkang nodded. "She is." Then, he tucked Shuxin's hair behind her ear and said, "You've lost weight. You're the one who hasn't been eating properly."
Shuxin held Shu Youkang's arm and leaned on his shoulder. "Father, I'm so sad."
Shu Youkang's eyes turned sour. "Father knows. I'm sorry. It's all Father's fault …"
Shuxin shook her head on his shoulder. Her tears fell like a broken string of beads. "It's not your fault …"
"No, it's Father's fault." Shu Youkang held Shuxin's shoulders with both hands. "There are some things that Father can't hide from you anymore. Back then …"
