In the study room
Huo Yanqing finished going through a pile of information and wrote down a price on a document. He then put the document into a yellow leather bag and turned to look at the petite woman beside him. She was supporting her head with one hand and holding a pencil with the other. The pencil was twirling between her slender fingers.
She pursed her lips slightly and frowned slightly. She seemed to be thinking about something.
Her serious look was especially pleasing to the eye.
Shuxin was done with the idea and was about to draw it on a piece of paper when her chin was suddenly lifted by a long finger. The next second, warm lips covered hers.
When Shu Xin saw the handsome face that suddenly approached her, the corners of her mouth curled up into a smile. She cooperated with him and kissed him for a while. After the two of them separated, Shu Xin asked with a smile, "are you always so half-hearted when you work?"
Huo Yanqing looked at Shuxin's blushing face and smiled. "You're the only one who can distract me."
"Then I'll work in the bedroom from now on?"
"Right here …" Huo Yanqing was about to say something when his cell phone rang. It was Lu Jinshen calling. He answered the call. "Is there any progress?"
Lu Jinshen's deep voice was heard. "Yes, that call wasn't from my dad."
Huo Yanqing's smile disappeared and his expression became serious. "Was it from Tang Weizhong?"
"Yes."
Huo Yanqing's eyes turned stormy in an instant, and a terrifying coldness leaked out from his body. He gripped his phone so tightly that his knuckles turned white because he used too much strength.
Shuxin sensed that Huo Yanqing was not in a good mood and asked him worriedly, "What's wrong?"
Huo Yanqing did not speak. He only reached out and pulled Shuxin into his arms.
Shuxin leaned into his arms obediently. His chest was heaving violently and it was obvious that he was trying to suppress some kind of emotion. His voice was as cold as the wind from hell. "Help me collect evidence of his crimes."
"He used my dad as a cover. It'll be difficult to find direct evidence."
"Tell Uncle Yao about this and ask him to help investigate. I remember that after the incident that year, Tang Weizhong retired. He didn't get promoted, so the only benefit he received was money. The start-up capital he used to establish the Tang Corporation is not a small amount. Check his bank account details."
"It'll take time to investigate something that happened five years ago."
"Okay."
Huo Yanqing hung up the phone. His expression was extremely gloomy.
Shuxin had never seen Huo Yanqing like this. He was dark and full of murderous intent.
From what he said, Shu Xin guessed that he must have found the mole in the accident five years ago, and that mole was Tang Weizhong.
The Tang family and the Huo family had been friends for generations. Shuxin had heard Huo Yanqing mention that Tang Weizhong used to be a political commissar in the army. He and his father, Lu Jinshen's father, were good brothers who had gone through thick and thin together.
Huo Jianqing was betrayed by his brother and died so miserably, while Huo Yanqing witnessed his father and brother die without a complete corpse. Now that he knew that it was Tang Weizhong who caused all of this, Shu Xin could not imagine how strong the hatred and anger in his heart was now.
Shuxin did not know how to comfort Huo Yanqing. At this moment, nothing could alleviate his pain and hatred. She understood how he felt. In her past life, her most trusted sister and her most beloved man had betrayed her and even joined forces to steal her heart. It was a hatred that made her want to burn their bones and scatter their ashes.
