Chapter 359 Giving Them a Lesson
Knowing that Chen Man was worried about him, Huo Tao patted the woman’s hand comfortingly. He said with a cold expression, “The Kang family actually dared to attack Xuan’er and hurt Xiao Zhu today. They clearly think that the Huo family is easy to bully and don’t care about us. If we don’t teach them a lesson, the Kang family won’t learn their lesson!”
When Chen Man heard this, she frowned slightly and continued nervously, “But I heard from Huan’er just now that Xuan’er had already promised Cheng Tang to let the Kang family off and not pursue today’s matter. Isn’t it bad for us to do this?”
Just now, under Xu Huan’s protection, Huo Tao and Chen Man were sent back to the small mansion first. After everyone returned, Xu Huan took the opportunity while Mo Jiu was diagnosing Mo Zhu’s condition to brief Chen Man and Huo Tao about what happened to them in the Kang family after they left.
Therefore, the two of them naturally knew that because of the favor they owed Cheng Tang, Huo Xuan had agreed to let the Kang family off this time.
Huo Tao’s expression darkened and he cleared his throat unhappily. “Xuan’er said that letting them off can only represent his own intentions. How dare they lay a hand on my son and daughter-in-law. I didn’t say that I would let the Kang family off easily!”
Chen Man and Huo Tao had been husband and wife for many years. She understood Huo Tao’s character and knew that he had already made up his mind and couldn’t be persuaded. Thinking of the expert that appeared in the Kang family that Xu Huan had mentioned, she pinched the space between her eyebrows and instructed worriedly, “Then you have to be careful. Since the Kang family has such a powerful subordinate, they definitely have a backup plan. Now that the other families of the Huo family are useless, we have to rely on our family for everything!”
Huo Tao nodded and held the woman’s hand tightly. He looked down at Chen Man and said softly, “Don’t worry, I know my limits.”
After pausing for a few seconds, Huo Tao looked up at the rooms where the people from the younger generation were resting and instructed Chen Man seriously, “Although this place is a small mansion Xuan’er secretly bought in the suburbs of Beijing and doesn’t attract much attention, it’s hard to guarantee that someone will not have the means to investigate this place. Mo Jiu and Huan’er must be tired taking care of them. instruct Mo Wu and the rest to keep a close eye on the outside. Call me immediately if there’s any abnormal activity!”
“Sure.” Chen Man smiled. She seemed to have thought of something and patted Huo Tao’s hand before asking, “How do you plan to deal with the Kang family? You can’t go head-on with them!”
When Huo Tao heard this, he raised his eyebrows nonchalantly. He replied in a low voice, “How could I be such a stupid person? The Huo family definitely won’t have the upper hand in a direct battle with our current strength. Besides, the Kang family might have hidden experts now.”
“However, no one can be sure about business matters. Before the Kang family is done with their work, I’ll take in a few of their companies first. I want to see how many experts the Kang family can raise without the support of the family business!”
When Chen Man heard this, she clapped in agreement and replied with a smile, “Good, good. I knew you had an idea. Hurry up and do it. Tomorrow morning when Xuan’er and Xiao Zhu wake up, I’ll quickly tell them this good news. It’s time for us to make the Kang family pay the price!”
After saying this, Chen Man did not say anything else. She pushed Huo Tao outside and let the man leave the small mansion.
The night passed quickly.
The next morning, just as the sun rose from the east, Huo Xuan rubbed his sleepy eyes and got out of bed.
Seeing that Xu Huan was sleeping beside his bed, Huo Xuan frowned slightly and patted him awake. After instructing Xu Huan to rest, he stood up and went to Mo Zhu’s room to visit the girl.
As Mo Zhu was a girl, it was not convenient for others to take care of her. Therefore, as the only woman in the small mansion, Chen Man took the initiative to take care of Mo Zhu for the entire night.
DUpon seeing Huo Xuan enter, Chen Man thought about what Mo Jiu had said before he left and said plainly to Huo Xuan, “Mo Jiu said that Xiao Zhu’s body is has recovered quite a bit, but because he doesn’t really understand the internal energy that was running rampant in her body previously, he isn’t sure when she will wake up.”
