Chapter 57: If You Don ‘t Let It Go, It Will Be Meaningless

Old Madam Yue was shocked watching the two of them being intimate. She repeatedly confirmed that it was Huo Jiuxiao’s car. In the end, she had no choice but to believe the fact that Lin Wanli was Huo Jiuxiao’s woman.

However, she owed Huo Jiuxiao a favor in the past. If Lin Wanli wanted to use that relationship to cooperate with her, she would definitely not refuse. But Lin Wanli did not seem to use her relationship with Huo Jiuxiao to threaten her? Or perhaps, Lin Wanli did not know at all?

Old Madam Yue’s expression was complicated. Seeing Lin Wanli enter the departure hall, she instructed her assistant to help her out of the car. Today, Elder Hua was heading North, and Lin Wanli actually came to see him off. Could it be that she knew that she would come too, so she specially created an opportunity?

With such suspicions, Old Madam Yue also entered the departure hall.

In the hall, Elder Hua was chatting with a few good friends, including the other two elders who had appeared at Frank’s house that day, Elder Huang and Uncle Qing.

“Wanli is here.” When Elder Hua saw Lin Wanli, he could not help but shake her hand excitedly. “I spoke to Dr. Duan on the phone last night. I only found out then that you actually waited for him for three months just for me. You contacted him many times before he was free.”

“Elder Hua, please don’t say that. You are a friend of my teacher. Of course I will do my best for you.” Lin Wanli consoled the old man, “I’ve also made arrangements regarding Dr. Duan. You just need to be at ease, it will be a smooth and safe journey.”

“If the old man can come back alive, I will definitely repay your kindness!” “I’ll wait for you.” Lin Wanli smiled generously.

Just as the two of them were talking, Old Madam Yue walked over to Elder Hua with the help of her assistant. The atmosphere suddenly became strange.

“You followed me here for the sake of cooperation?” Old Madam Yue mocked Lin Wanli.

“Old Madam, I’m just here to send a friend off on behalf of my teacher today.” Lin Wanli replied calmly, “I’m asking for cooperation not to force you, but because I want us to understand each other.” Old Madam Yue snorted and laughed.

“Elder Hua, have a safe journey. I’ll be leaving first.”

Elder Hua nodded and reminded her to pay attention to her safety. However, she did not expect Old Madam Yue to suddenly speak.

“Miss Lin, may I have a word with you?”

The two walked to the side. Old Madam Yue leaned on her walking stick and said, “I saw Huo Jiuxiao just now. You are really unfathomable, but Huo Jiuxiao isn’t that easy to control. Don’t play with fire.”

Lin Wanli still laughed after hearing that. She replied, “I won’t use my husband.

It’s impossible in this lifetime. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave first. Old Madam, I’ll still wait for your good news.”

Hearing the word husband, Old Madam Yue was so shocked that she lost her expression.

But what shocked her even more was Lin Wanli’s words.

It was firm and unquestionable as if Huo Jiuxiao was something she did not want to talk about.

After Lin Wanli left, Old Madam Yue returned to the front of the Elder Hua.

Elder Hua laughed and asked, “You still haven’t let go of your prejudice? Do you know that the girl contacted Dr. Duan for three months because of my illness? Even my unfilial descendants can’t do what she did. She was really different from the Lin Family, and she would never be the same.”

“Brother, you don’t have to say anymore. I have my own judgment.” Madam Yue shifted the topic away from Lin Wanli. “This time, your trip will definitely go smoothly. Please take care.”

“Alright.”

After sending Elder Hua off, Old Madam Hua returned to the car and asked her assistant to find the phone number that was already covered in dust. She called it.

The person who answered the call was Song Huaishu. The two of them had just arrived at the company. Song Huaishu looked at Huo Jiuxiao and asked, “Old Madam Yue, Master Xiao, do you want to meet her?”

“Send her the address.”

Since she was calling him, it meant that she had bumped into him and Lin Wanli at the airport just now. Although he had promised Lin Wanli that he would not interfere with any of her plans for revenge, now that the Yue Group had found him, was he going to ignore it?

Huo Jiuxiao strode into the office.

There was no news of Lu for the time being, and the company’s shareholders wanted to make use of this to make a fuss. Therefore, before the meeting even started, the shareholders were already arguing in the meeting room.

At this moment, Huo Jiuxiao entered the conference room with a vicious aura. It was as if he had muted the phone. No matter how much the shareholders disagreed, they could only give up in front of Huo Jiuxiao.

It was not just because Huo Jiuxiao was ruthless. It was also because Huo

Jiuxiao was the one who handled all the confidential business deals that involved billions of dollars. Everyone knew that the reason Huo Jiuxiao stayed in the company was because of that good-for-nothing Lu. Without him, the company would not have a tomorrow.

Huo Jiuxiao did not want to listen to the scheming thoughts in their hearts. He sat down in his office chair and asked directly, “I’m still sitting here. What are you unhappy about?”

Everyone was speechless.

With Huo Jiuxiao around, the business would not be lost, and the company would not collapse. What dissatisfaction would they have?

“We’re already looking for him. After we send him back, everything will be handled according to the company’s regulations. Those who should be held accountable and dismissed will be dealt with accordingly. I only have one point. If anyone has second thoughts, you can leave now. If I find out, the outcome might not be good.”

“I hope that none of you will ever be targeted by me.”

Although it was a meeting, it was actually just to show his attitude and stabilize the shareholders.

But even so, it was enough to shock the shareholders. In the past, Huo Jiuxiao did not care about such things.

However, since Huo Jiuxiao was personally in charge, the shareholders were naturally at ease. The company quickly stabilized and restored order.

The trouble that he had wanted to delay was solved in one go. Huo Jiuxiao felt much better. Therefore, when Old Madam Yue entered the Diheng Building and appeared in front of Huo Jiuxiao, he was not wrapped in such a thick layer of hostility.

“Mr. Huo.” Old Madam Yue sat down with the help of her assistant.

Huo Jiuxiao turned his office chair around and looked at Old Madam Yue. “Why are you looking for me?”

He did not mention anything about the airport or Lin Wanli. He just wanted to know what kind of rumors this Old Madam could make up. [I have to first test whether their marriage is true.]

The Old Madam thought.

“This morning at the airport, I happened to bump into your car. You brought Lin Wanli along. Then, Mr. Huo, do you know that Lin Wanli is making use of her relationship with you to get Old Madam Yue to work to repay your kindness and get the Yue Group to cooperate with her?”

However, Huo Jiuxiao just laugh and mocked, “Impossible.” “Mr. Huo, do you really believe that your partner won’t lie to you?”

“Do you think anyone around me would dare to lie to me?” Huo Jiuxiao questioned Old Madam Yue instead. “We’ve been married for two years. She wouldn’t have waited until now if she wanted to move. Besides, you lied to me, but she didn’t.”

At least, she had never done so ever since they got married.

“Now that you know about our relationship, you should understand that she’s lowering her status by cooperating with the Yue Group. Old Madam, if you don’t let it go, it’ll be meaningless.”

Old Madam Yue was once again shocked speechless.

Lin Wanli had indeed lowered herself to seek cooperation. No matter how much she rejected, humiliated, or suspected, Lin Wanli always gave her the respect she deserved and never lost her composure. “I was too narrow-minded. I will get to know her again..”
