A blind date, a flash marriage, and a stepmother, the billionaire praised her every day
Chapter 159: Poisoning me, was it just a moment of confusion?
"If you want to meet her, wait until our Chuchu is free, then you can come to visit her with gifts." Huo Yunzheng didn't take Huo Jiayuan seriously at all.
Who is he? How dare he let his baby take a look at him?
"Yun Zheng, what are you talking about!" Huo Shan scolded. This son was becoming more and more unruly. With so many elders present, even if the old man had not agreed to let the woman enter the house yet, they were already married, so she should come and greet them first.
Huo Yunzheng is too protective. What great things can be achieved with such a deep love between a young man and a woman?
Huo Jiayuan snorted. Huo Yunzheng was becoming more and more arrogant by relying on his contributions to the group. He really thought he was very capable. If the old man had not wanted to push him to the position, it was not certain whether he would get the position of power!
"Yun Zheng, after dinner, come with me to the study." Mr. Huo ordered.
Huo Yunzheng put down the chopsticks in his hand, looking as aloof as ever.
"Okay, I have something to tell you."
As he spoke, he glanced at Huo Qi and Huo Jiayuan. His icy gaze made Huo Qi feel uneasy.
There is still no news about Ding Yongpeng, and no one knows where he is. Could something have happened to him?
Was he discovered by Huo Yunzheng? Was he caught?
If Huo Yunzheng killed the person directly, it wouldn’t be a big deal. What I’m afraid of is that the guy named Ding can’t control his mouth!
Damn it, I spent so much money and still nothing is done!
Huo Qi felt so upset and uncomfortable that he had no appetite at all.
In the study, Mr. Huo lit a cigarette as usual, puffed out smoke, and looked at his grandson sitting in front of him.
"Bring your wife home tomorrow. It's almost New Year, so you can take this opportunity to have a meal together."
Huo Yunzheng smiled and said, "As I said before, if you don't clearly agree to propose marriage to the Jing family and complete the missed ceremony, our Chuchu will not enter the Huo family. Everything must follow the rules and procedures. This is what you said yourself, Grandpa."
Mr. Huo glared, "Do you really want me to kowtow to that old man Jing? It's up to you whether you want to accept it or not!"
Huo Yunzheng was relaxed. He would not let Chu Chu come to the Huo family without any clear reason. He would only consider bringing her back after the Huo family showed that they valued her.
His wife will not tolerate any unnecessary grievances.
"Your fifth brother wants to marry Chen Xinru. What do you think?" asked Mr. Huo.
Huo Yunzheng leaned back in his chair, his face calm, "I have no objection, he can marry whoever he wants. Grandpa, it's inappropriate for you to ask a married person such a question."
Mr. Huo took a puff of his cigarette and frowned, "This incident is not good if it gets out."
"No matter whether it sounds good or not, Third Uncle got what he wanted anyway." Huo Yunzheng said, "He got on board the Chen family's ship. Not only that, Third Uncle has a big appetite. It's not enough to have a good in-law, he wants to kill me."
His tone was relaxed, but his words surprised Mr. Huo.
"Your uncle wouldn't be able to do this, so don't talk nonsense."
He understood that there would be disputes among large families, but Huo Qi was his biological son and Huo Yunzheng was his grandson. They were related by blood, so how could they be so cruel?
Huo Yunzheng smiled and said, "I know you won't believe it, I have brought all the evidence."
As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened a video, and placed the phone in front of the old man.
On the screen was a bloody man with swollen eyes and a bleeding nose. He had been taught a lesson badly.
This guy was very stubborn and held back for two days before he was willing to speak. If you didn't know him, you would think that Huo Qi had done him a great favor.
"A member of the Huo family, Huo Qi, the vice president of Yunxi Group, gave me two million to buy the life of a woman named Qiao Chuchu. I also promised him that I would kill Huo Yunzheng while I was at it. After the task was completed, he would give me another ten million in reward."
"I originally wanted to do it in Shanghai. I followed their car all the way, but was discovered. Later, I didn't find a chance to do it. I knew they returned to Beijing, so I followed them here."
Although the man had blood coming out of his mouth, his voice was still clear. Old Master Huo listened to every word he said, and his expression changed from initial suspicion to gloomy.
"You want to buy my life and my wife's life with 12 million? Uncle San underestimates me too much." Huo Yunzheng said dimly.
"This man is called Ding Yongpeng. He was originally a killer trained by Qinglong Hall. Later, he was kicked out because he made a mistake. Third Uncle is very capable and made a deal with him."
After the video was finished, Mr. Huo remained silent.
He knew that this video must be real. Huo Yunzheng would not have found someone to act for him. He knew the temperament of his grandson, whom he had raised, and he would not do such a thing as deliberately framing someone.
But Huo Qi...
Huo Yunzheng chuckled, put away his phone and looked at the old man.
"I told you that our Huo family is a den of wolves, but you didn't want to hear it. I don't dare bring my wife back to this place."
There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone, but his eyes were cold.
"Yun Zheng, your uncle has been suppressed for so many years, and he has no say in the group. Maybe he is just confused for a moment."
Mr. Huo intended to comfort Huo Qi.
Such a reaction was within Huo Yunzheng's expectations.
"Then was it just a momentary confusion that you poisoned me?" Huo Yunzheng asked back coldly.
He didn't say anything in the past because he wanted to get solid evidence before telling the old man. But now, looking at the old man's attitude, it doesn't matter whether he wants the evidence or not.
"Poisoned?"
Mr. Huo's right hand trembled slightly. He was completely unaware of this matter. So Yun Zheng asked to go to the Shanghai branch at that time because he found out that he had been poisoned and wanted to stay away from the Huo family to find out the mastermind behind it?
"Grandpa, Huo Qi wants the power of the group. If he can manage it well, I will give him the position. But he should never, ever set his sights on my wife."
If they were only targeting him, Huo Yunzheng might have shown mercy because they were both members of the Huo family.
But Huo Qi and his son were courting death by touching Qiao Chuchu!
That night at Wenxiu Garden, if Chuchu had not gone to bed late and been careful enough, the consequences would have been disastrous.
He couldn't bear the pain of losing her. Just thinking about it made him feel heartbroken.
Old Master Huo's chest was heaving violently. His son had such vicious intentions that he was willing to even harm each other within the family!
"Yun Zheng, don't make this matter public for now. Grandpa will give you an explanation."
Don't show off?
Huo Yunzheng understood that what the old man valued most was face, and the Huo family could not allow such a scandal to be exposed.
As for the explanation, Huo Yunzheng did not hold out hope.
Even if Huo Qi is cruel, he has a father-son relationship with the old man. Can the old man really kill him? Can he drive him out of the Huo family and let him live a miserable life on the streets?
Some things have to be done by yourself.
Even if I don't want his life, I will make sure he will never be able to turn over.
