Huo Jinyao stood there with a cold face. His facial features were cold and his eyes were sharp.
"I know who drugged him."
"Who?"
Su Qingsang couldn't figure it out at all. All the guests were relatives.
Strictly speaking, Su Peizhen was the only one who wasn't a relative. But why would Su Peizhen drug Zhang Yichen for no reason?
If it wasn't her, then who among the group of guests could it be?
Huo Jinyao shook his head and put his hands on Su Qingsang's shoulders.
"Don't worry about it. I'll take care of it. Go back to your room and rest. "
"Then …" Su Qingsang glanced at the bed. Zhang Yichen was still sleeping.
The doctor had given him a preliminary treatment after receiving the test results.
It wasn't that heavy. If Zhang Yichen hadn't been drunk, he wouldn't have ended up like this.
"Uncle had an injection. He should be sleeping. He doesn't need anyone to take care of him. "
Su Qingsang nodded. Even if Huo Jinyao wanted her to take care of Zhang Yichen, she didn't want to do it now.
It wasn't that she didn't want to save face for her relatives. It was that after what happened just now, she didn't dare to stay.
Even if Zhang Yichen was drunk, he had to be careful when he was alone with Su Qingsang and Su Qingsang.
"I think so too."
She didn't leave in a hurry because she wanted to save face for Huo Jinyao. Su Qingsang sighed in her heart and glanced at Zhang Yichen.
He didn't do it on purpose, but he was the one who brought this embarrassing situation to her.
However, she wasn't really mad at him, considering that he was drugged and had drunk so much.
Instead, she felt sympathy for him. She didn't know who he had offended to make him suffer like this.
Su Qingsang thought it was a prank, but Huo Jinyao didn't think so.
After sending Su Qingsang back to her room, he went upstairs to Liu Tongjia's room.
Liu Tongjia was still angry. Her anger hadn't completely dissipated even after such a long time.
After a knock on the door, Huo Jinyao appeared in the room.
His hands were clenched into fists. He looked at Liu Tongjia with a complicated look.
Liu Tongjia felt uncomfortable being stared at like that. Before she could say anything, Huo Jinyao had already walked up to her.
He looked at Liu Tongjia with disappointment in his eyes.
"Why are you doing this?"
"…?" Liu Tongjia looked at Huo Jinyao in confusion. She had no idea what he was talking about.
"Mom. Tell me, why did you do this? "
Liu Tongjia's face darkened. "What did I do? Don't tell me that just because I said a few words about your wife, you're in such a rush to stand up for her? "
Huo Jinyao smiled bitterly. He looked at Liu Tongjia and couldn't believe that she could say something like that at a time like this.
"Mom, am I really your son? Are you really my mother? You can't bear to see me happy? You can't look at me, okay? "
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Liu Tongjia was angry. "Who gave you the right to talk to me like that? Do you still have any respect for your mother? "
"If you want me to put you in my eyes, then what about you? Do you really think of me as your son? Do you? "
Huo Jinyao took another step forward. He was tall and strong. Even though Liu Tongjia was twice his age, she still took a step back because of Huo Jinyao's imposing manner.
"Huo Jinyao, get out of here."
"Wait till I have made myself clear, I have made myself clear. I'll get out of here. "
"What on earth are you talking about?"
"Uncle. Only Zhang Yichen was drugged. "
"Drugged?" You were drugged? "Liu Tongjia's eyes widened in shock." How could you be drugged? What drug? "
Huo Jinyao thought that she was just trying to hide something. He smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.
"Mom. Shouldn't you be the one who knows best what kind of medicine Uncle was given? "
"What do you mean?"
"I mean exactly what I said."
For so many years, Huo Jinyao had been tolerating and giving in.
He knew that Liu Tongjia didn't like him, and he knew why.
He knew that he couldn't change her mind. He was used to her coldness and indifference.
However, he didn't expect that one day, Liu Tongjia would use such a trick on his wife.
Putting Zhang Yichen's thoughts aside, Su Qingsang was innocent.
Why did she have to endure all this?
"Huo Jinyao, watch your attitude."
"What about you? Are you acting like a mother again? "
Huo Jinyao didn't want to bring it up. It had been a long time, and many things had been weighing on his mind.
He was so heavy that he couldn't breathe.
No one could truly ignore the hurt that came from their parents and relatives.
He was the same.
"Huo Jinyao. Are you blaming me? "
"Can't I?"
Huo Jinyao's eyes were sharp, and he was clearly blaming her.
"You say that you're my mother, but what kind of mother are you? You drugged Uncle just to make me misunderstand Qingsang? I know you don't like me. But if you're unhappy with me, you can come at me. Don't hurt Qingsang. "
"I, I …"
Liu Tongjia stuttered. She widened her eyes. She couldn't believe that Huo Jinyao would blame her like that.
"Mom, I always thought that after all these years, you should feel less resentful. But I was wrong. I don't want to talk about the past anymore. But I won't tolerate it anymore. "
After saying that, he turned to leave. Liu Tongjia suddenly stood in front of him.
"Did you say that I drugged Zhang Yichen?"
"Didn't you?"
"Why would I drug him?"
"To make you misunderstand Qingsang, to make us unhappy. Don't you always like to do things like that? You have to do things that make me unhappy. "
"Huo Jinyao." Liu Tongjia was furious. She didn't want to refute the second half of Huo Jinyao's words. She nodded her head heavily.
"Good, very good. I want you to misunderstand Qingsang? Is this a misunderstanding? Huh? That woman was flirting with Zhang Yichen in a place where you couldn't see her? Did I wrongly accuse her? I was just trying to make you see the truth. "
"I believe in Qingsang's character. And what you meant by letting me see the truth was that you didn't hesitate to give Uncle that kind of despicable drug in order to frame her? "
"I drugged Zhang Yichen?"
Liu Tongjia was furious. "Why don't you say that he was a dirty person?"
"He was just tricked by you. Why don't you say that you just don't want me to be happy? "
Liu Tongjia nodded repeatedly. She was too angry. She didn't expect Huo Jinyao to rush up to her and criticize her in such a tone.
She felt a ball of fire burning in her heart, making her lose all rationality.
"Fine, fine, fine. Yes. I did it. I really don't want you to be happy. What right do you have to be happy? Huo Jinyao, do you have the right to be happy? "
She pointed at Huo Jinyao with a fierce look, as if she wanted to vent all the resentment she had accumulated over the years.
"You, you, what right do you have to be happy?"
"Everything you have now isn't yours. It's Jinkai's. You took over your brother's position, and you killed him. Now, you have the nerve to say that I don't want you to be happy? "
"Why should I want you to be happy? You killed my son and my daughter. "
"Both of my children died in your hands, and you want to be happy? Based on what? What about Huo Jinyao? Why do you have to make such a request? "
Liu Tongjia couldn't hold it in anymore. Her eyes were red.
She was not acerbic, and she was not without a mother's heart. However, Huo Jinyao had killed her motherly heart.
"You should have known that when you killed them. Huo Jinyao, you are going to hell. You don't have the right to be happy. Don't you? "
Liu Tongjia's voice became shrill, and her body began to tremble with anger.
She couldn't bear it, and she didn't want to.
In fact, for so many years, she and Huo Jinyao had been maintaining a peaceful relationship on the surface.
That was just the surface. Like a bubble, it would burst with a gentle poke.
Just like now, she couldn't bear it anymore, and she didn't want to bear it anymore.
Huo Jinyao looked at her and saw her revealing such a sharp side. This scene had actually happened once before.
When his brother and sister had just died. At that time, she was like this too. She shook his shoulder in disbelief.
She asked him, "Why don't you die if you're so vicious?
Why didn't you die? "
Memories were usually not good. Huo Jinyao closed his eyes. When he opened them again, there was no emotion in them.
"That's the truth, isn't it?"
"That's what you really think, isn't it? You've always thought that way. It's just that all these years, you've been suppressing those thoughts. "
"For you, you actually hope that I was the one who died in that accident, right?"
His voice was very soft, but every word was like a raindrop hitting her heart.
Liu Tongjia felt a little uncomfortable for some reason, but she suppressed that discomfort.
"That's what you said, not what I said."
She didn't say that now, but she had already said it back then.
Huo Jinyao nodded. He stood up straight and his back was straight.
He was tall and strong. He was mature and calm.
He was Huo Jinyao, the invincible Huo Jinyao.
He forced himself to be calm and indifferent. Even though his heart had been riddled with holes by Liu Tongjia. But he couldn't show it on his face.
He just stared at Liu Tongjia. His gaze was indifferent, and his expression was calm. However, his eyes were as deep as the sea, making it impossible to see the bottom.
"Mom. Do you know? I've been thinking the same thing for so many years. Why wasn't I the one who died in that accident back then? "
Liu Tongjia's body trembled, and her legs were a little weak. She forced herself to stand still.
"I'm telling the truth," Huo Jinyao looked at her and said word by word in a very soft tone.
"I really hope that the person who died back then was me."
"If the person who died was really me, I think you wouldn't be so resentful now, right?"
Huo Jinyao closed his eyes. He didn't want to stay any longer, so he turned around and walked straight to the door.
The moment his hand touched the door handle, he stopped.
He didn't turn around. He just stared at a certain spot.
"Tianyu Group belongs to Dad, but it also belongs to Grandpa. You don't like me and want to give Tianyu Group to someone else. I know, and I don't care. Grandpa once said that Big Brother is gone. I am the eldest grandson of the Huo family. I have to shoulder my responsibility as the eldest grandson. "
"Whether it's Tianyu Group or the Huo family, they are all my responsibility."
"If you really think that I don't deserve to sit in this position, I can go and convince Grandpa. Give the position of CEO to someone else. I don't want it. "
"Whether it's the Huo family's things or Tianyu Group. Or even myself. You can do whatever you want. I'll do whatever you want. "
"Just a little. That's my bottom line. That's Su Qingsang. "
"You can deal with me in any way you want. You can take away everything I have now. But if you hurt Su Qingsang, I won't let it go just like that. "
His grip on the door handle tightened. Finally, he opened the door and left without looking back.
After he left, Liu Tongjia's legs turned to jelly. She couldn't stand and fell to the ground.
She looked at the tightly closed door. For a moment, she wondered if she had done something wrong.
But no one could tell her the answer. Huo Mingguang wasn't here. She couldn't discuss this matter with anyone else.
She just sat on the ground. The ground was covered with a thick plush carpet, so it wasn't cold.
However, she felt waves of coldness coming from all directions and surrounding her tightly.
She raised her hand and pressed it against her heart, trying to convince herself that she wasn't wrong.
What was wrong with her?
Look at Huo Jinyao's attitude. What did he mean by his bottom line was Su Qingsang?
In his heart, only Su Qingsang was human. These family members were not human anymore, right?
In his heart, he only cared about Su Qingsang. She wasn't his mother, was she?
Liu Tongjia kept coming up with excuses. She kept telling herself that Huo Jinyao was wrong and that he had gone too far.
Look, he even slandered her and said that she drugged Zhang Yichen.
Did she need to drug Zhang Yichen? Even without the drug, Zhang Yichen would still want to be with Su Qingsang. Why would he need her to add fuel to the fire?
She wasn't wrong. She wasn't wrong at all.
However, no matter how hard she tried to convince herself, Huo Jinyao's words and the expression on his face kept echoing in her mind.
Over and over again.
If he had been the one who had died …
Liu Tongjia's body trembled and she fell to the ground again. She put her hands on the carpet and tried to push those thoughts away.
She wasn't wrong. She wasn't wrong.
She was right.
But this time, even she wasn't sure about herself.
… …
When Huo Jinyao returned to the room, Su Qingsang had just taken a shower.
When Zhang Yichen held her in his arms, she smelled of alcohol, which made her very uncomfortable.
As a doctor, even if she wasn't a Virgo, she was more obsessed with cleanliness than the average person.
She had just dried her hair when Huo Jinyao came in.
"Jinyao?"
He said that he was going to find the person who drugged her. Su Qingsang asked him who it was, but he wouldn't tell her.
Seeing his gloomy face, she looked at him worriedly.
Before she could get up, Huo Jinyao walked behind her and hugged her.
"Jinyao?"
He hugged her tightly, so tightly that she was almost buried in his body.
Su Qingsang couldn't move. She raised her hands and gently hugged Huo Jinyao's back.
They looked at each other without saying a word.
The atmosphere in the room was silent.
Su Qingsang heard Huo Jinyao's heartbeat. It seemed to be faster than usual.
She couldn't help but want to raise her head, but the back of her head was pressed against his chest. She couldn't move at all.
It was a very uncomfortable position, but she couldn't push him away.
It wasn't that she couldn't, but that she didn't want to.
She just leaned against his chest, letting him hug her tightly with a strength that could almost hurt her, not letting go.
Until she heard his heartbeat slow down. She pressed her lips together and pressed her face against his chest.
"Who drugged me? Can you tell me? "
Huo Jinyao didn't say anything. She felt his body tense up.
She thought for a moment. Someone who could make Huo Jinyao act like this couldn't be an outsider. That was …
"That drug, was it your mother who drugged me?"
She wasn't sure. At least, she couldn't think of a reason why Liu Tongjia would do that.
However, Huo Jinyao's body stiffened almost instantly, which made her sure of it.
She suddenly raised her head, ignoring his hand that was still on the back of her head.
Her pretty eyes were full of shock. She looked at him in disbelief.
"Re-really?"
Huo Jinyao pressed his lips into a straight line. He hugged her very tightly.
Su Qingsang didn't know what to say. She was a smart woman.
She didn't even need to think to figure out why Liu Tongjia did that.
"She didn't like me, so she drugged Zhang Yichen? So that you would see it and misunderstand me? "
No way. She went around in circles just to set me up?
If that was the case, Su Qingsang really admired Liu Tongjia. No one else could be so calculative.
Huo Jinyao looked at Su Qingsang and hugged her again. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Qingsang … "
Su Qingsang could sense the apology in his words, but she still felt that something was wrong, as if something was wrong.
"That's not right." Su Qingsang looked up at him. "It doesn't make sense, does it? After all, if I didn't go out to make the call … If I didn't go out to the hallway? Won't her plan fail? "
"Why did you go out to the hallway?" Huo Jinyao thought of what happened just now.
Su Qingsang glanced at her phone and said, "I went out to answer the call. It was from Mengwan. I didn't want to disturb you, so I went out. "
"So you see, it doesn't make sense at all. If I didn't go out, she wouldn't have had the chance. Besides, how did she know that I would go out to make the call at that time? "
"I don't think she needed to know that you would call at that time."
Huo Jinyao's face was cold. He thought of what Liu Tongjia had done recently, no, all these years. He really couldn't be happy.
"In fact, I think even if you didn't go out to make the call. She would have found a way to get you out at that time. "
"Are you so sure?"
"Of course. She was the one who brought the hangover soup. She knows very well which room uncle usually sleeps in. "
Huo Jinyao looked down at Su Qingsang with a sullen face.
"In fact, it might be because you ran away. Another thing was that his uncle's willpower was strong. He didn't really hurt you. "
"Otherwise, she could have called all the other members of the Huo family here. When they came and saw that you were her niece's daughter-in-law, but you had an affair with your uncle, they would misunderstand."
"At that time, no matter how much I trust you, I'm afraid you won't be able to stay in the Huo family anymore."
It was true that Old Master Huo loved him and valued him.
However, Old Master Huo wouldn't let such a scandal happen. He wouldn't allow such a thing to happen to his family.
Huo Jinyao knew that, and so did Su Qingsang.
If Su Qingsang and Zhang Yichen were really caught, even if she knew it was fake.
What would Old Master Huo think?
Even if they could find out later and say that Zhang Yichen was drunk and drugged. Who would believe that?
Zhang Yichen was a relative of the Huo family. He was Old Master Huo's nephew. They couldn't do anything to him, but they could turn around and deal with her.
Not to mention that Zhang Yichen was a soldier. If he did such a thing, his family wouldn't tolerate him. He might even lose his military identity.
Thinking about it this way, the person who drugged him was really ruthless.
"But …" She still had a strange feeling that Liu Tongjia wouldn't do such a thing.
"I'm telling the truth that your mother doesn't like me. But what reason does she have to deal with uncle? After all, he's grandaunt's son. He's also grandaunt's favorite youngest son. "
"She has a reason."
Huo Jinyao said expressionlessly.
He thought of the time when he was in the army. Before he went abroad to study, he would go to Zhang Yichen's army every summer and winter vacation.
Zhang Yichen and he were not only uncle and nephew, but also good friends like brothers.
Liu Tongjia knew this. She just couldn't bear to see him do well.
She didn't want to see anyone who was good to him, no matter who it was.
She came up with such a way to drive a wedge between him and Su Qingsang, and at the same time, make his relationship with Zhang Yichen worse.
Two birds with one stone.
Was that right? Su Qingsang lowered her head. She felt that something was wrong. But hearing Huo Jinyao's analysis, she felt that it was normal.
"You don't have to excuse her. She admitted it herself."
Su Qingsang's eyes widened. She was really shocked this time.
"She, she admitted it?"
"Yes."
Huo Jinyao hugged Su Qingsang again. From an angle that she couldn't see, his face was full of pain.
It was so painful to be hurt by someone close to her.
"Huo Jinyao, aunt might be …"
She wanted to say a few words for Liu Tongjia, but even she felt that such an explanation would be too weak and useless.
Su Qingsang thought of what Liu Tongjia had said last time. She thought of the kidnapping and the departure of Huo Jinyao's brother and sister.
She raised her head to look at Huo Jinyao. She was full of questions.
She really couldn't believe that Huo Jinyao was that kind of person. Even though he was still young at that time.
Huo Jinyao hugged her tightly and rested his chin on the top of her head.
He looked at a certain point in the void, and the nightmarish kidnapping case from that year flashed through his mind.
