Chapter 431: He Doesn I t Have a Benevolent Heart

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Maybe in my previous life.” Lin Wanli said sadly. It was a time when Huo Jiuxiao was not by her side. She was pregnant alone, she gave birth alone, and she took care of the child alone. At that time, she had even been worried and wondered if Master Xiao would hurt her daughter.

“Miss Xu has been hurt too deeply. She needs a lot of patience and love to relax her nerves. The child is the key to healing her. Don’t be too nervous and guarded. Help her and take good care of the baby for her. Let her see the baby’s smile more often. Perhaps it can help her return to normal and make her change her mind.”

“As for the medicine, try your best to get her to take it. Sleep is very important to her. When she consciously asks for help one day, it would not be long before she recovers. This time, she should be able to sleep for a while. Prepare a bouquet of flowers for me.”

“Yes, Miss Lin.”

Lin Wanli wasn’t an expert, nor did she have any skills. It was purely because of empathy. No matter how many skills or arrangements there were in this world, they could not be compared to sincerity.

Outside Xu Huiwen’s room, Huo Jiuxiao stood in the corridor for a while. He heard his Little Sweet Wife’s inner thoughts. He had missed the most important two years of Lin Wanli’s life. Even if he was always there on important days, how could he be considered accompanying his wife if he did not show up in front of her?

However, regret was regret. It would not make you correct your mistakes just because you scratched your heart regretfully.

A moment later, a helper walked up behind Huo Jiuxiao and patted him on the shoulder. After he turned around, the helper said politely, “Young Master Huo,

Old Master has invited you.”

“Please lead the way.” Huo Jiuxiao said with a sad expression on his face.

Huo Jiuxiao had once risked his life for others. When Lin Wanli wasn’t around, the hostility and coldness on his body would pour out like dry ice. At this moment, he was walking behind the helpers, and there was a quiet voice in his ears. Everyone in the manor had their troubles, but it had nothing to do with those schemes and fights.

At this moment, Elder Hua, the noble person, and a few other unfamiliar faces were drinking tea and chatting in the side hall. When they saw Huo Jiuxiao, the few old men revealed meaningful expressions. Because in terms of looks, Huo Jiuxiao was definitely the best among all the young men they knew. Moreover, he was not just good-looking. Even though he had been away for many years, his calmness and extraordinary air of nobility far surpassed the other members of the Huo family.

This was the first time the noble person had seen Huo Jiuxiao. His first impression of him was that he was not a playboy. He was completely different from those who risked their lives outside. Even though he risked his life outside, he didn’t act like a bandit.

In fact, he did have that air and was a self-proclaimed sc*mbag who indulged himself in Lin Wanli. There was a man’s sharpness and ruthlessness hidden in his bones. It was just that he had temporarily restrained his bloodlust and it was not easy for others to see it.

“Mr. Huo, we’re here.” The helper led him into the hall and then quietly left.

Huo Jiuxiao raised his head and looked at the five or six pairs of eyes surrounding him in the side hall. He did not show any stage fright or fear. Even though there were two or three old men who looked like they were watching a good show, he seemed to not care at all.

“Jiuxiao, you came at the right time. Do you recognize this picture?” The noble person was dressed in a Chinese tunic suit and held a walking stick in his hand. He sat on a bamboo chair and looked at Huo Jiuxiao.

Huo Jiuxiao followed the noble person’s gaze and saw a copy of a landscape painting that they were evaluating.

“I’m fortunate to have seen it.” Huo Jiuxiao said in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing, “Not long ago, it appeared at the Royal Auction in England. A Chinese businessman bought this painting and entrusted Diheng to escort the national treasure back to the country for donation. I was honored to accept this mission.”

After hearing Huo Jiuxiao’s words, the expressions of the old men changed slightly, especially the noble person.

“I heard that the security company that escorted the national treasure didn’t take a single cent. Why?”

“I don’t like my things at home wandering outside the country.” Huo Jiuxiao answered honestly.

The expressions on their faces when they looked at Huo Jiuxiao became a little more subtle. Just as the noble person had other questions to make things difficult for him, the son of one of the old men came to the side hall with medicine. This person’s surname was An, and he was currently an academician of the Institute of Engineering. He had been on vacation for the past few days, so he had accompanied his father to Lutai. At this time, he had come over to remind his father to take his medicine.

However, when he saw Huo Jiuxiao’s back, he felt that this person looked familiar. When he passed Huo Jiuxiao and saw him in front, he suddenly said in surprise, “I didn’t expect it to be you, Jiuxiao.”

“Huaiming, you know Jiuxiao?” The noble asked.

“Back then, I was able to escape from the United States because he risked his life to save me. Not only me but Xiwen was also rescued by Jiuxiao in the Middle East and sent back to the country. Dad, the child I told you about who saved me was Jiuxiao.” An Huaiming was very excited. He stepped forward and patted Huo Jiuxiao’s shoulder.

‘You don’t know that Diheng has done many things that benefit the country and the people for free. As long as it involves the country’s interests, Diheng will basically risk its life to complete the mission. It’s really been many years since we last met. You’ve become much more mature and steady.”

“It’s nothing.” Huo Jiuxiao said simply.

“But why have I heard so much negative news about Diheng?” At this moment, one of the old men deliberately made things difficult for Huo Jiuxiao.

“Uncle Liu, how can you believe rumors to understand a person?” An Huaiming immediately spoke up for Huo Jiuxiao. “It depends on whether a person is broad-minded or not. You should get to know them yourself.”

After saying that, An Huaiming also saw the copy of the painting that they were admiring. “Isn’t this painting also brought back by Jiuxiao from England?” he asked.

‘You know about it too?” The noble person asked.

“I was the one who recommended him.” An Huaiming said, “If domestically we need such a person to deal with something for the country, then it must be him.”

When Huo Jiuxiao was doing all this, he had never thought that he would have such good karma. Just like when he saved Aunt Qi, he would not know that Aunt Qi would do her best to take care of Youran for him in the future.

An Huaiming had a very high opinion of Huo Jiuxiao.

Moreover, it came from the bottom of his heart.

When the noble person saw this, he finally relaxed and gestured for the old men to stop making things difficult for the young man.

“Jiuxiao, I’m sorry for Uncle Xu’s contempt and misunderstanding of you. After all, we only know you from hearsay. I hope you don’t mind us testing you.”

“Uncle Xu, you’re exaggerating. I’m not as noble as Director An said. I’m just following my heart.”

He had to admit that before he met Huo Jiuxiao, he was biased towards Huo Shengyuan. Although Huo Shengyuan was not perfect, he was more than enough to lead the Huo Corporation, even if he did not have a benevolent heart. However, after meeting Huo Jiuxiao, he finally understood the difference between the two and Huo Qingxiao’s preference.

Huo Shengyuan might not have felt it himself, but he felt that he was more capable than Huo Jiuxiao.

However, only bystanders could see clearly that only those who were truly benevolent, broad-minded, and loving would win the respect of others..
