Huo Jianzhang plucked up his courage and said, "I admit that I wanted to kidnap Shuxin. She forced me to resign from the Huo Corporation. I only wanted to scare her. You can't remove me from the Family Huo because of an outsider. I didn't do anything to harm the company's interests. You can't take back my shares."
Huo Jianzhang looked at Huo Jianrong and said, "Brother, you have to say something."
The only direct descendants of the Family Huo were Huo Yanqing, Huo Jibai, Huo Jianzhang, and Huo Jianrong. Huo Yanqing's decision to remove Huo Jianzhang from the Family Huo Corporation and take back his shares had to be approved by Huo Jibai and Huo Jianrong.
Needless to say, Huo Jibai would definitely listen to Huo Yanqing. Therefore, Huo Jianzhang pinned his hopes on Huo Jianrong.
Huo Jianrong frowned and said to Huo Jianzhang, "Brother, Shuxin is Yanqing's fiancée. She's a member of the Family Huo. How can you say that she's an outsider? It's wrong of you to kidnap her. You've done wrong."
Huo Jianzhang glanced at Shuxin coldly. He didn't say anything. He had to keep his cool at this moment.
After Huo Jianrong finished speaking, Huo Jianzhang looked at Huo Yanqing and said, "Yanqing, your uncle did wrong, but he didn't really hurt Shuxin in the end. Your punishment is a little too harsh."
Shuxin sneered in her heart. She stood up and looked at Huo Jianrong coldly. "Uncle, you're wrong. If I hadn't learned some martial arts, I'm afraid that I would be dead now. Isn't it obvious that he wants to hurt me? Do I have to die for that to happen? "
Shuxin's words were sharp and Huo Jianrong's face turned pale. However, he quickly smiled and said, "Niece-in-law, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that we're all family and we should prioritize harmony."
"The problem is that he doesn't treat me as family. He just said that I'm an outsider." Shuxin retorted mercilessly.
Last time when Huo Yanqing was injured in Country Z, Jianzhang brought shareholders to the villa to cause trouble. Shuxin knew that Jianzhang wasn't a kind person.
However, she didn't know much about Huo Jianrong. Before she came, Shu Xin deliberately learned about Huo Jianrong from Song Li.
Song Li said that Huo Jianrong was a wolf in sheep's clothing. On the surface, he was gentle and easy to get along with, but in fact, he was just as concerned about the Huo Corporation as Huo Jianzhang. However, he was smarter than Huo Jianzhang and didn't show it on the surface. He was used to taking advantage of the situation and adding insult to injury.
Shuxin remembered that when Huo Jianzhang brought shareholders to the villa to cause trouble, Huo Jianrong was also there. However, he didn't stand up for Huo Jianzhang. He secretly approved of Huo Jianzhang's actions. Shuxin felt that such a person was more despicable than Huo Jianzhang.
Shuxin could guess why Huo Jianrong would speak up for Huo Jianzhang. He just didn't want to lose someone who could take the bullet for him in the future.
Huo Jianrong was speechless at Shuxin's words.
Huo Jianzhang had always been afraid of Huo Yanqing because his son's leg was crippled by him. However, he hated Huo Yanqing very much in his heart. How could he not hate his son for being crippled?
Now that things had developed to this point, he wasn't so afraid anymore. He felt like he was ready to risk everything. He straightened his back and said to Huo Yanqing, "You crippled one of your cousin's legs, and now you're attacking me, your second uncle. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
