It had been two years, and this was the first time Xia Cha was meeting Huo Heng in real life.
Compared to the high-spirited scene she had seen on TV a few days ago, he seemed a little absurd and out of sorts now.
She couldn’t help but think about what Xia Furong had said.
Could it be true that he was going to be chased out of Tian Corporation?
Since he had fallen out of favor, he had come out to have fun?
As if he did not see Xia Cha, Huo Heng smiled devilishly and said to the woman, “Beautiful Ningning, let’s go!”
Xia Cha watched as Huo Heng and the woman walked away. An indescribable feeling surged in her heart.
Although she no longer had anything to do with him, she still hoped that he would live well in her heart. She did not really want to see him indulging himself in pleasure!
Sun Ningning helped Huo Heng to the hotel upstairs..
Sun Ningning took out a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet and poured a glass for herself and Huo Heng.
“Young Master Huo, come. Let’s continue drinking.” If she was right, Huo Heng would be completely drunk after a few more drinks.
Huo Heng clinked glasses with Sun Ningning.
The two drank a few glasses. Just as Sun Ningning expected, Huo Heng was drunk.
He was sprawled out on the bed.
Sun Ningning stared at Huo Heng for a few seconds. In terms of appearance, Huo Heng was undoubtedly handsome and outstanding. If Ye Hongming didn’t have something on her, she might have been attracted by Huo Heng’s change over the years.
Sun Ningning took out her phone and called Ye Hongming.
“Huo Heng is already drunk. What should we do next?”
“According to the original plan, tomorrow morning, get the reporters to come over and take pictures of you two together.”
“Brother Hongming, do you really want me to marry Huo Heng? I’m your woman!”
“Ningning, when my sister and I get everything we need from the Huo Family, I’ll give you the identity you want. For the time being, you’ll have to suffer, okay?”
Tomorrow, the reporters would take photos of Huo Heng and Sun Ningning together. Not only would Huo Yuan be furious, but he would also feel that Huo Heng was the same as before. He would also be able to use public opinion to force Huo Heng to marry Sun Ningning.
Once Sun Ningning became Huo Heng’s mistress, she would be able to get first-hand information from him.
Not only did he not want Huo Heng to become the president, but he also wanted him to lose his status in front of Huo Yuan and never be able to rise up again!
Sun Ningning hung up the phone and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
She came out with a towel wrapped around her. She thought that the man on the soft couch was still sleeping, but she had not expected him to be sitting on the bed and smoking.
He didn’t look drunk at all!
Sun Ningning took a step back in fear.
Through the smoke, she looked at the man’s narrowed eyes and cold expression, and a chill ran down her spine.
Was Huo Heng pretending to be drunk?
“Miss Sun, you don’t have to be afraid. I’m here to work with you.” Huo Heng blew out a mouthful of smoke. His handsome face, which was shrouded in smoke, looked very secretive.
Sun Ningning swallowed nervously. “Young Master Huo, h-how can I work with you?”
“Aren’t you Ye Hongming’s lover?”
Sun Ningning turned pale.
“Half a year ago, a girl named Xiao Ning came to the Huo Family to work as a maid. However, she only worked for a few days before Ye Shuangshuang found an excuse to fire her. That girl called Xiao Ning is your sister, right?”
Sun Ningning looked away. “Young Master Huo, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“You used to be the pillar of JP’s big stage. Many people supported you, and some people found trouble with you when they couldn’t get you. There was once, you were kidnapped and someone took a photo of you. Later, Ye Hongming saved you and even took the photo back from the person who kidnapped you.”
“You are grateful to Ye Hongming, but there are photos that he has in his hands. You are afraid of him, so you don’t dare to go against him. Miss Sun, do you know who was behind the kidnapping?”
“The man who kidnapped me has been arrested.”
The corner of Huo Heng’s lips twitched as he let out a derisive laugh. “The real mastermind is Ye Hongming. If you don’t believe me, take a look at this document.”
Sun Ningning took the document from Huo Heng. After reading it, her pupils constricted.
“N-no way…”
“Ye Hongming orchestrated a show for you to pledge your loyalty to him. Not only that, the person he truly loves, you might not have expected…”
Huo Heng asked Sun Ningning to read another document. After Sun Ningning read it, she fell to the ground unsteadily.
“Tell me, where is your sister?” Sun Xiaoning was fired on the day of Old Madam Huo’s accident. She must have seen some secret.
If he could find her, the truth of Old Madam Huo falling down the stairs and having a stroke would be revealed.
…
Three days later.
Huo Family’s Li Tian Corporation’s shareholder meeting.
Early in the morning, Huo Yuan received an envelope at his doorstep.
Inside the envelope were a few photos of Huo Heng wandering around recently.
Looking at Huo Heng in the photo, Huo Yuan felt like he had returned to how he had been four years ago.
He sighed, endless disappointment in his eyes.
Ye Shuangshuang came downstairs in a suit. She had already been discharged from the hospital. She had lost a lot of weight and looked even more pitiful.
Huo Yuan felt very guilty toward Ye Shuangshuang. He decided to give her 10% of the shares at the shareholders’ meeting and promote Ye Hongming to CEO.
Huo Yuan and Ye Shuangshuang arrived at the company’s conference room.
Ye Hongming and the other shareholders had arrived early. They waited for a while until the meeting started, but Huo Heng still hadn’t arrived.
Huo Yuan was increasingly disappointed with Huo Heng.
For the past few days, Huo Heng had not visited Ye Shuangshuang at the hospital. Even the culprit, Jian Yi, had not visited her.
This mother-and-son pair was increasingly looking down on him.
Ye Shuangshuang saw that Huo Yuan’s expression wasn’t good and whispered to him, “Brother Yuan, don’t blame Ah Heng. He’s still young after all. Which young man doesn’t like to play?”
“He’s already 24 years old. How is he still young? How much older is Hongming? He clearly did something wrong, yet he can’t differentiate right from wrong. He’s just like his mother!”
Huo Yuan waved his hand. “Forget it, let’s not wait for him.” Huo Yuan cleared his throat and said to the people in the meeting room, “I will announce two things in today’s meeting.”
“Firstly, a vice president will be promoted to the CEO of the company. Secondly, I will be giving away 10% of my shares.”
Huo Yuan glanced at the lawyer behind him. “I’ve already asked the lawyer to prepare the shares transfer agreement. 10% of the shares will be transferred to my wife, Ye Shuangshuang.”
The lawyer took out a document from his briefcase and handed it to Ye Shuangshuang. When Ye Shuangshuang saw that Huo Yuan had already signed the transfer agreement, her eyes revealed a trace of unnoticeable joy.
She picked up her pen and was about to sign when the door to the meeting room was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
Huo Heng and Jian Yi came over.
Huo Heng was wearing an exquisite black shirt and a pair of pants. He was neat and stylish, and his aura was strong. The moment he entered, he attracted everyone’s attention.
He walked up to Ye Shuangshuang and took the shares transfer agreement away before she could react.
