It was already very late when Huo Jinyao got home.
Su Qingsang was still awake. Seeing Huo Jinyao enter the room, she put down the book in her hand.
"You're back? Have you eaten? "
"I have." Huo Jinyao didn't say anything. He walked to the bed and hugged Su Qingsang, who was about to get up.
Su Qingsang was stunned for a moment. Her lips moved, but she didn't ask anything.
The room was very quiet. Neither of them spoke. A few minutes later, Su Qingsang patted Huo Jinyao's back.
"Grandpa told me to tell you that it was his decision to let Huo Yifan return to the company."
Huo Jinyao's body froze for a moment. He let go of Su Qingsang and looked at her face.
"You know?"
Su Qingsang nodded. They returned from C City, but Huo Jinyao didn't go back to the old mansion for dinner. Old Master Huo was a smart man. How could he not know that Huo Jinyao was angry?
"Grandpa said that nothing beats family harmony, so —"
She didn't finish her sentence, but Huo Jinyao understood what Old Master Huo meant. It was nothing more than asking him to bear with it for the sake of the bigger picture.
Patience?
The problem was, he didn't want to endure it.
He didn't want to put up with Huo Yifan or Su Peizhen. He didn't want to see Huo Yifan strut around in front of him.
Old Master Huo had thought that Huo Yifan would go home for dinner, so he wanted to tell Huo Jinyao himself.
However, Huo Jinyao didn't want to go home. He had no choice but to call Su Qingsang to the study when she was about to go home and briefly explain the situation to her.
"Grandpa said that he understands your feelings and knows that you have grievances in your heart. But no matter what, Huo Yifan is your younger brother. His proposal this time was also very good. So please understand. "
Su Qingsang's voice was very low, and she held Huo Jinyao's hand as she spoke.
She could understand his feelings, but she didn't know how to help him.
"Honey."
Huo Jinyao suddenly held Su Qingsang's hand and looked at her attentively.
"What?"
"If I leave the Huo family one day, will you come with me?"
Su Qingsang frowned slightly. "Are you serious?"
"Yes. I'm serious. "Huo Jinyao looked at her with a serious face." I don't want to endure it anymore. "
"Then don't be patient. No matter what you want to do, I will support you. "
Huo Jinyao smiled. It was a rare smile on his face after returning to Rong City.
He held Su Qingsang's hand and kissed it. When he looked up again, his eyes were very sharp.
"However, I don't plan to leave the Huo family."
Su Qingsang didn't understand. Huo Jinyao slightly raised the corners of his mouth with a hint of playfulness.
"Why should I be the one to leave? The Huo family can only be mine. "
He wasn't greedy for his current position. If it hadn't been for that accident, the Huo family would have been Huo Jinkai's.
He didn't care who the president of Tianyu Group was, and he didn't care about Huo Mingguang's attitude towards him.
However, no one could replace Huo Jinkai in controlling the Huo family and Tianyu Group.
"Jinyao, then you —"
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
Since Huo Yifan was feeling smug now, he would just let him be for a few more days. It was just a plan. He would have a way to make it impossible for him to complete it.
Su Qingsang didn't respond. She reached out and hugged him again.
It didn't matter if he stayed in the Huo family or left the Huo family. No matter where he was, she would go.
As for whether he was the president of Tianyu Group or not, when she was with him, didn't she think that he was just a small employee?
So what did it matter whether he was or not?
"No matter what you plan to do, I'll support you."
Huo Jinyao lowered his head. When he met her misty eyes, he leaned over and kissed her on the lips.
He held her in his arms. In a place where Su Qingsang couldn't see, his deep eyes were filled with sharpness.
..
When Huo Jinyao entered the cafe, he immediately saw Qi Xiwei, who was sitting by the window.
Qi Xiwei sat there with her long hair draped behind her head. She seemed to have become a little more plump. She sat there flipping through the magazine on the table, her eyes filled with gentleness.
She hadn't changed much over the years. She was still so innocent. In that way …
When she saw someone in front of her, she raised her head. When she met Huo Jinyao's face, she smiled gently.
"Jinyao, you're here?"
Huo Jinyao nodded and sat down opposite her. Qi Xiwei didn't close the magazine in her hand. She just turned her face and looked at Huo Jinyao.
"I haven't seen you for so many years, but you're still the same."
"Really? You're the same. "
Speaking of which, he hadn't seen Qi Xiwei for nearly eight years.
Qi Xiwei curved the corners of her lips, and the smile on her face didn't diminish. "I'm not the same. I'm old and haggard. "
"You're younger than me. If you say you're old, won't I be older?"
"It's different. Women always age faster. " Qi Xiwei's voice seemed to be emotional, but it was only for a moment. She quickly changed the topic. "By the way, what do you want to drink?"
"A latte."
"Your taste hasn't changed much."
As Qi Xiwei spoke, she called the waiter over and ordered a latte for Huo Jinyao. She ordered a glass of juice for herself.
"I remember you like Blue Mountain?"
"Yes. But I can't drink coffee now. I've already quit. "
Qi Xiwei ordered another two sets of snacks. Only then did she put away the magazine and put it aside.
"Quit?" Huo Jinyao looked at her expression, as if he didn't understand. "By the way, how have you been these few years?"
"Not bad. I know you're married. You should be quite happy, right? "
"Yes."
"That's good." A sincere smile appeared on Qi Xiwei's face. "I thought you'd be very busy. I didn't expect you to have the time to look for me."
Huo Jinyao didn't deny it. "I'm indeed very busy, but I have something to ask you."
As he spoke, he took out the document from his briefcase and pushed it in front of Qi Xiwei.
"This."
Qi Xiwei looked at the document and flipped through it. She closed the document and looked at Huo Jinyao in confusion.
"Have you guys already started? This plan isn't bad, right? "
"Very good." Huo Jinyao looked at Qi Xiwei and praised her generously. "If it can really be implemented, it will bring huge, long-term benefits to the group."
"It's good that it can help you."
Qi Xiwei smiled. The smile on her face was very pure. Huo Jinyao looked at her and put away the plan.
"Unfortunately, this plan doesn't help me now."
"Huh?" Qi Xiwei was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't quite understand what Huo Jinyao meant. "Why? Why can't it help you? "
"Xiwei, can you tell me why you gave me this plan? If I remember correctly, with your major and what you've learned, such a plan is also very beneficial to you and your company. "
"I know. But now, I don't have the energy to care about it. "
Qi Xiwei bit her lip and said softly, "I'm very optimistic about such a plan. But I don't have enough energy, so I can't continue. In my heart, you're the most suitable candidate. I feel that if I let you do such a plan, you'll definitely make it work to the fullest. "
"Thank you. Xiwei. Thank you for thinking so highly of me. But the question is, why didn't you come to me personally and give me this plan? "
Qi Xiwei lowered her head, as if a little embarrassed. "I did. I went to Tianyu Group to look for you, but they said you weren't there. Then, I met your sister-in-law. She said that you went to C City and wouldn't be back so soon, so I gave the document to her and asked her to pass it to you. "
Huo Jinyao pursed his lips into a straight line. He was a little helpless at Qi Xiwei's rash actions. "Are you very familiar with her? You gave her such an important thing? "
"I'm not very familiar with her. But I met her when she was in the United States. I knew that she was the daughter of the Li family in Lin City. I happened to see the video of your anniversary celebration. Now that she's married to your cousin, you're family. "
"So when she said she could pass it to you, I gave it to her."
"Xiwei –" Huo Jinyao didn't expect Su Peizhen's perfect plan to come from this way. "I remember that you weren't such a simple person in the past."
"Yes. I also feel that I've changed a lot. " Qi Xiwei smiled, looking a little uncomfortable. "But there's nothing I can do. This is a special period. Not only can I not keep up with my energy, but sometimes my thoughts can't keep up either. "
Special period? This time, it was Huo Jinyao's turn to be confused. Qi Xiwei smiled. "That's right. I'm pregnant. So – "
She didn't finish her sentence. She had been sitting and holding a magazine in her hand, so Huo Jinyao didn't pay attention to this.
Because of her words, Huo Jinyao looked down at her abdomen. Only then did he realize that Qi Xiwei's abdomen was already bulging. She did look pregnant.
"Jinyao, to tell you the truth, ever since I got pregnant, my spirit has been much worse, and my temper is also sometimes good and sometimes bad. You're right. Originally, I planned to carry out this plan in my own company. But because my mood hasn't been very stable recently. My boss asked me to hand this plan over to someone else. I was very unhappy and had an argument with my boss. "
"After the argument, I was angry and annoyed. I didn't want my boss to benefit, so I decided to give this plan to you. "
"I only found out that you were married when I returned home. After thinking about it, I didn't have any other gift to give me. I've been working on this plan for a long time, and it's barely presentable. I wanted to give it to you as a wedding gift. "
Qi Xiwei seemed a little embarrassed when she said this. "I originally wanted to give this to you personally. But the last time I went to your company to look for you, you weren't there. My low blood pressure came back again. It was your sister-in-law who sent me to the hospital. At that time, the plan happened to be in her car. Later, she said that she would give it to you. I happened to be feeling unwell, so I naturally gave it to her. "
She finished explaining the process, but she didn't understand what was going on.
"She didn't give it to you? Then, why is this with you now? "
Everything was clear. Huo Jinyao was silent for more than ten seconds. Qi Xiwei's expression turned ugly again. "Did I do something wrong? What happened? Tell me. "
"Xiwei, can you do me a favor?"
"Of course. You know, as long as it's your matter, I'm willing to help. "
She didn't finish her sentence, but Huo Jinyao understood what she meant. Yes, Qi Xiwei was like this. She was always very enthusiastic.
She used to be like this when she was in school, and she was still like this after she left school.
"Let me thank you in advance." Huo Jinyao didn't say what it was. He looked at Qi Xiwei with a hint of concern in his eyes. "Oh right, you're married. Does your husband treat you well?"
"We broke up." Qi Xiwei shook her head and didn't want to talk about it anymore. "I'm alone now."
Huo Jinyao was a little stunned by this random sentence. When he saw Qi Xiwei's normal expression, as if she couldn't be any better, he didn't know what to say.
"But, aren't you pregnant now?"
"Yes. I know I'm pregnant. " As Qi Xiwei spoke, she lowered her head and placed one hand on her abdomen. At that moment, her expression was rather gentle. "I know I'm pregnant. This is my child. If his father doesn't want him, I'll want him. "
Huo Jinyao was a little surprised that she didn't seem to care. After thinking for a while, he spoke very seriously.
"Xiwei. We're friends. If you need my help, you must tell me. "
"Thank you." Qi Xiwei smiled at him. "But I don't need it now. I'm fine like this."
She thought of what Huo Jinyao had said just now. "By the way, you said that you needed my help with something. May I ask what's the matter? "
Huo Jinyao glanced at the proposal. There was a flash of malice in his eyes, but he didn't show it in front of Qi Xiwei.
… …
When Huo Jinyao entered the company, it happened to be Monday. There was a regular Monday meeting today.
Huo Yifan had already been kicked out and wasn't qualified to attend, but because of the recent proposal, he sat in the conference room again and occupied a seat inside.
When he saw Huo Jinyao and Yang Wenchang get up together, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and a look of pride and arrogance flashed across his eyes.
When Yang Wenchang saw it, his face darkened, and he couldn't help but look at Huo Jinyao.
Huo Jinyao, on the other hand, acted as if nothing had happened. He walked to the top seat and sat down at the first seat at the conference table.
The seat at the top was Huo Mingguang's. Ever since Huo Jinyao and Huo Mingguang parted on bad terms, Huo Jinyao hadn't gone to look for Huo Mingguang in the past few days.
He didn't have any business matters to talk to Huo Mingguang about. The father and son worked at the Tianyu Group every day, but they didn't meet even once.
Thinking about it, it was really ironic.
Soon, Huo Mingguang arrived. It wasn't just him. There was also Huo Mingliang.
The two of them entered the conference room one after another. They sat down at the head of the table. Huo Mingguang glanced at Huo Jinyao. If one looked carefully, one would find a flash of guilt in his eyes.
But it was only for a moment. Soon, he looked at the people in front of him. He announced the start of the regular meeting.
There wasn't much to hear in the first place. It was about the daily matters of the company and the progress of some big cases.
Huo Jinyao supported his chin with one hand, as if he was listening to the reports of these people seriously.
From time to time, he would look at Huo Mingguang. In the past, he wouldn't attend such a regular meeting every time.
Today, he was listening especially seriously. When he looked at Huo Mingliang again, his face was full of pride. He couldn't hide it.
There was also Huo Yiyang and Huo Manzi, who were sitting next to Huo Yifan. They covered up the dejection that Huo Yifan had when he was kicked out of the Tianyu Group a while ago. They looked more or less proud.
Huo Jinyao admired their expressions. He knew in his heart that such pride. It wasn't long.
It was only today. After today, he was confident that Huo Yifan would never be able to be proud again.
Soon, it was Huo Yifan's turn to speak. What he wanted to talk about was the project that he was currently working on.
When it was Huo Yifan's turn to speak, Huo Mingliang's eyes lit up. He looked at Huo Yifan, his pride evident in his words.
It wasn't just him. Weren't the Huo siblings the same?
This plan was indeed very good, Huo Jinyao admitted. Qi Xiwei looked soft and weak, but she was very capable.
In fact, after she graduated, Huo Jinyao had thought of letting her enter the Tianyu Group.
However, Qi Xiwei refused. She chose to stay in the United States. A few years ago, he had almost no contact with her.
If it weren't for this incident, he would have followed the clues given by Yang Wenchang and discovered that Huo Yifan's plan was actually given to him by Su Peizhen.
Su Peizhen, on the other hand, had actually managed to get on Qi Xiwei's good side without him knowing. He also wouldn't know that Qi Xiwei had returned to the country because of her boss's business philosophy and design philosophy regarding some new products.
She had been back for a while. Previously, her health wasn't good, so she stayed at home to recuperate. At the same time, she changed the plan in her hands.
It wasn't until later that she felt that it was perfect and could be taken out. That was why she came to look for him. This plan, which was originally a wedding gift from Qi Xiwei, had somehow fallen into Su Peizhen's hands.
Heh. Su Peizhen, that woman. His previous punishment of her was still too light.
This time, he could deal with both Huo Yifan and Su Peizhen at the same time.
At that moment, Huo Yifan was speaking with confidence. He was quite confident in the case he was currently working on.
Half of this confidence came from the perfect plan. The other half was because he was confident in his own abilities.
He believed that this time, he would definitely be able to make a beautiful comeback.
When he thought of this, he couldn't help but look at Huo Jinyao. His expression was proud and provocative.
Huo Jinyao acted as if he didn't see it. He lowered his head to look at the time. It should be about time.
The moment he raised his head, the door of the conference room was opened. Zhang Yan walked in front. When he saw the person inside, he finally looked at Huo Jinyao.
"President Huo?"
Huo Jinyao curled his lips. Very good. He was here. The show was about to begin.
Zhang Yan's appearance made everyone look at him. They also saw the person standing behind him.
