“Song Huaishu.”
Hearing Huo Jiuxiao’s voice, Song Huaishu, who was waiting outside the door, immediately pushed the door open and walked in.
“Master Xiao. ”
“How are the others?” The current Huo Jiuxiao was completely different from the man who was relaxed and showed his true feelings in front of Lin Wanli just now. He was still cold and distant, but Song Huaishu knew that some things were different.
“Only one person is seriously injured. His condition is very stable now,” replied Song Huaishu.
“Transfer one million from my personal account to each of you.” Huo Jiuxiao instructed, “As for the person with the surname Lu…”
Song Huaishu hurriedly replied, “There’s no news at the moment.”
“Open the bounty. Dead or alive, I want to see him. Also, inform them that Diheng will hold a board meeting in a week. I want to clean up the company.” When Huo Jiuxiao said these words, his tone was as casual as usual, but the degree of danger did not decrease at all.
With someone to protect, he had to be tougher and more ruthless.
Outside the ward, Lin Wanli leaned against the corridor and asked Yan Qiu,
“What is it?”
“Xu Menglan just called. The Ye family’s mother and daughter were blackmailed by Qin Huaijing and are trying to raise money. Ye Zhenzhen contacted Nan Xing just now to disturb you. She was probably afraid that you would ruin their beautiful dream.”
“Have they set the date and time for the family recognition banquet?” asked Lin Wanli.
Yan Qiu replied, “It’s basically confirmed that it will be in half a month. I guess it should be on the anniversary of the Lin Group.”
“Half a month. If it’s just Nan Xing, she probably won’t be able to disturb me.” Lin Wanli sneered,” Who are they looking down on? Before the Lin Group makes their identities public, find a suitable time to let Qin Huaijing know that the mother and daughter are about to ascend. Then, it would be a matter of who would suffer more.”
“In that case, would the mother and daughter be ruthless to Qin Huaijing in order to ascend?” Yan Qiu guessed that if they didn’t remove the thorn that was Qin Huaijing, the Ye family’s mother and daughter wouldn’t be able to eat or sleep in peace.
“I want their relationship to escalate to the point where one of them dies. I want someone to keep an eye on Qin Huaijing because this mother and daughter might use Xu Menglan’s knife to get rid of Qin Huaijing. When the time comes, arrange for Qin Huaijing to stay somewhere else and send him to the family recognition banquet… That scene… It is exciting just thinking about it. Qin Huaijing might expose everything about the Ye family’s mother and daughter.” Lin Wanli had already made arrangements for the mother and daughter.
“Yan Qiu, you have to do three things now. First, we can use the chess pieces we buried in Huamei Design. I just want to know Nan Xing’s and the grandson of the Yue family’s progress. Secondly, urge the hospital side to release news of the Ye family’s mother and daughter ascending to Qin Huaijing. Third, assure Xu Menglan. She might cower when she touches on this matter. Tell her not to be afraid, I’m controlling everything from behind.”
“I understand, President Lin.” Yan Qiu agreed, “Also, have you spoken to Master Xiao and reconciled?”
Lin Wanli looked at her mysteriously and said, “Is this something you should be gossiping about?”
“That… Your lipstick is still smudged.”
Lin Wanli couldn’t help but laugh when she heard that. She said, “Go and do what you’re supposed to do.”
“I’ll go immediately.”
Seeing that Lin Wanli was happy, Yan Qiu was also very happy.
Although she always knew that Huo Jiuxiao was Lin Wanli’s drug, whether he was her poison or her antidote… Only they would know.
From the looks of it, he should be the antidote…
After Yan Qiu left, Lin Wanli looked at Huo Jiuxiao’s ward door and had an idea.
Could he hear it or not?
How far can he hear her thoughts?
Or could he only hear it if he was close?
Once a person was curious, they would want to get an answer.
Therefore, Lin Wanli kept thinking about the Huo family when she returned to the ward.
[Since the root of the problem lies in the Huo family, shouldn’t we find an opportunity to visit them? I remember that the fiercest person in the Huo family is at the second branch. Then, everything Master Xiao suffered through is probably related to her. It should be easy for a woman to talk to another woman, right?]
Huo Jiuxiao looked at the woman with a heavy heart. He frowned and raised the corner of his eyes slightly.
[Or should I look for Master Xiao’s father directly?]
This time, Huo Jiuxiao grabbed Lin Wanli’s arm and warned, “Don’t touch the
Huo family, especially when I’m not around.”
[You know that I’m testing you, but you’re still so serious.]
“Woman, sometimes you think you’re too smart. I’m afraid you’re really overestimating yourself.” Huo Jiuxiao knocked her on the head. He said, “Finish your revenge well. Before that, don’t cause any trouble.”
[So, you can really hear my thoughts? This kind of communication seems easier than talking…]
Lin Wanli suddenly became excited.
“So, what are you happy about?”
[This is amazing!]
“It’s amazing, especially when I hear someone thinking about how to sleep with me.”
Lin Wanli was speechless.
Lin Wanli suddenly lost her excitement and started to recall what unhealthy thoughts she had been thinking about previously.
Was this place for sadists?
“Isn’t it too late to recall all that now?” Huo Jiuxiao turned the tables and started teasing her again. He reached out and rubbed Lin Wanli’s lower lip with his fingers. Then, he said in an extremely dangerous tone, “Didn’t I tell you long ago that our circle is indulgent in our desires?”
Lin Wanli’s face was flushed red, and her breathing was very awkward. She looked at Huo Jiuxiao and asked innocently, “Then did you hear everything I said in my heart?”
“Since I owe you two lifetimes of affection, Ah Li, I will return it to you.”
This time, before Huo Jiuxiao could react, Lin Wanli had already taken the initiative. Their lips moved against each other.
On the other side, at Huamei Design.
Ever since Nan Xing received Ye Zhenzhen’s call, she had been anxious and restless.
This was because Lin Wanli had already caused so many things in the short period of time that she had returned. Not only did she destroy Qin Huaijing, but she also caused the Ye family’s mother and daughter to suffer a huge loss. Nan Xing did not want to provoke Lin Wanli at all. She even wished that Lin Wanli would forget about her in a corner and let her live.
However, she had no choice but to listen to Ye Zhenzhen’s words.
She was destined to be in Ye Zhenzhen’s hands because of her vanity back then. Especially now that her relationship with the young master of the Yue Group was not stable enough, she did not dare to reject Ye Zhenzhen’s request. After all, she wanted to marry into a rich family using her womb, so at this
time, she definitely could not cause any more trouble.
She only hoped that Lin Wanli had never suspected her.
Judging from Lin Wanli’s reaction, she had been back for so long and had yet to contact her. Did this mean that Lin Wanli really did not know the truth?
In fact, Lin Wanli just felt that it was a waste to set up a trap for Nan Xing alone. It was just that it was not the right time yet.
Some people could ruin her life just by stepping on it.
It was just like how Nan Xing had casually stabbed her with a knife two years ago….
