Chapter 104 Time Passed
Mo Yinchuan and Huo Junge's phones received the video almost at the same time, and they both picked up their phones to open the video almost at the same time. Finally, they put away their phones after watching the video almost at the same time.
"Don't you think we shouldn't take the old ones away as well?" Mo Yinchuan turned and looked at Huo Junge, who had a frown on his face, and asked.
"No, I've never been soft-hearted. You know, don't let Tiantian and Yuner know about this. There's no need to increase their moral burden. If I do it, they will only be more miserable." Huo Junge said lightly.
"There are plenty of opportunities for my people to add icing on the cake." Huo Junge said after a moment of silence.
Mo Yinchuan said nothing after hearing this, he understood the extent to which Huo Junge's people could go, but Mo Yinchuan did not intend to stop them. He should not have the intention to harm others, but if someone maliciously hurt his family, Mo Yinchuan would not show mercy.
Man, you will always have to pay for what you have done.
Although Xu Zhiheng was not the one who started the trouble, he was the initiator of Jiang Tiantian's frame-up. Mo Yinchuan would never let him live in peace as if nothing had happened and live a life of good fortune in the sun.
Don't they like to send people to dark places? Mo Yinchuan will treat them in their own way and let them all enjoy this kind of living condition worse than pigs and dogs where there is no way to survive or die in the dark.
Yes, that's right. The place where Xu Zhiheng and Li Xiuyan were located was the underground human trading ground where Fang Minyi and Lu Jianing had teamed up to sell Jiang Tiantian.
As soon as Xu Zhiheng and Li Xiuyan landed in Country M, the person arranged by the Li family to pick them up failed to pick them up. The two were picked up by someone contacted by Ye Chuyun and sold to the human trafficking black market.
Here, they will be well taken care of. To what extent is it so well taken care of? Most people will never experience it, and those who have experienced it usually don't have the opportunity to tell outsiders.
People who are sold to such places will almost never see the light of day again. They will first be controlled by the minions here with Du Pin, and then sell their bodies in exchange for daily rations to survive, until every drop of oil and water is squeezed out of them.
What does this have to do with Li Xiuyan? Mo Yinchuan's people found out that Li Xiuyan knew about this matter, but she didn't say a word against Xu Zhiheng, Fang Minyi, and Lu Jianing's activities. Just for her attitude, she deserved to go to such a place to experience the taste of it.
"Let the people over there take action at a slower pace and don't let people die too quickly. They need to keep their lives and slowly experience the life they long for, right?" Mo Yinchuan nodded lightly and said lightly.
"Don't worry, there are plenty of ways to make them live a few more decades." Huo Junge nodded, and the two of them walked into the house at the same time and returned to the living area with Bai Youming.
"Alas - it's really scary to see the iron tree bloom. Look at how proud you two are now. The power of love is indeed extraordinary." Bai Youming clicked his tongue in surprise.
"If you meet the right person, you must seize the opportunity. Sometimes fate may only come once in a lifetime, or never at all." Mo Yinchuan accepted Bai Youming's teasing with a smile.
"Indeed, since the emergence of a mistress and a child, this place really feels more like a place to live. I can't help but come here more often. You see." Bai Youming said with a smile.
"Uncle Bai, as long as you are not a bachelor or a DINK, you will have a wife and children sooner or later." Jiang Yixi walked over and said softly.
"Hey, kid, you know a lot." Bai Youming raised his eyebrows and took over the conversation.
"I'm not a three-year-old child, grandpa. I'm here to tell you that it seems like your father is outside. It's up to you whether to see him or not. I'll let you know. It seems that the housekeeper can't stop him." Jiang Yixi said to Huo Junge with a smile.
"Dad, I'm going upstairs. Good afternoon." After saying hello to Mo Yinchuan for the last time, Jiang Yixi turned around and disappeared at the entrance, going upstairs lightly.
"Oh, he's so persistent, as if I'm his only son." After Jiang Yixi walked away, Huo Junge sighed helplessly.
Between Huo Junge and Huo Boxiong, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. The way the father and son get along is: they always quarrel whenever something happens. Both of them have big ideas and no one can convince the other. Each of them thinks that the one with the bigger ideas has bigger ideas. Huo Junge thinks, why bother?
It's not like you need living expenses when you're old, so can't you just prepare yourself and live a good life?
Besides, the dissolution of the father-son relationship was made public at the time and the whole world knew about it.
After Huo Junge left home, Huo Boxiong published an announcement in the newspaper that he had severed the father-son relationship with Huo Junge, and that all of Huo Junge's actions outside had nothing to do with the Huo family.
What does it mean that he is now so strong to meet her? Huo Junge said he didn't understand.
"Do you really not understand what has been going on in the Huo family in recent years or are you pretending not to understand? We don't believe that you don't understand Mr. Huo's goal." Mo Yinchuan chuckled.
"It seems your security is not as good as you thought. They can't even stop an old man." Huo Junge said sarcastically.
"Damn it - stop talking nonsense and ruining my reputation. Can't you stop my people? If his surname is not Huo, and yours happens to be Huo as well, do you think a mere old man can really run rampant here? This is a joke." Mo Yinchuan snorted coldly.
"Go back and tell your people that this old man can treat everyone equally and there is no need to show mercy." Huo Junge said lightly.
"This is not a difficult task. Do I and Lao Bai need to avoid it?" Mo Yinchuan asked.
"Stay here and see what fantastic ideas this old man has." Huo Junge said that he had nothing to hide from Mo Yinchuan and Bai Youming.
Mo Yinchuan and Bai Youming shrugged their shoulders upon hearing this, indicating that they didn't care. The key point was that they, father and son, felt that there was no problem in front of outsiders.
"You're all here. It's really not easy to see you." As he spoke, Huo Boxiong had already appeared at the door of the living room. The old man was leaning on a cane, with a dignified look on his face.
"We are all important people, so we can't just meet anyone we want. I wonder who Mr. Huo wants to meet today." Huo Junge remained calm and asked softly as if he was dealing with an insignificant passerby.
"You little brat, we haven't seen each other for more than 20 years, and you don't even call me dad when we meet?" Huo Boxiong acted like a parent and scolded him softly.
"Don't! We have had no relationship for 25 years. You have even published an article in the newspaper to distance yourself from me. How come so much time has passed that you have forgotten?" Huo Junge is no longer the reckless young man who would obey orders after being scolded by his elders.
"You - Chuan, Bai, can you let us, father and son, talk alone?" Huo Boxiong suppressed his displeasure, looked at Mo Yinchuan and Bai Youming with bloodshot eyes and said.
"No need. Your uninvited presence is already enough to upset Youchuan. There is nothing in our conversation that they cannot hear. If there is, it means I shouldn't know it. You know in your heart that there is nothing about the Huo family that you cherish so much that they don't know. It's just that you think you are good at hiding it." Huo Junge said firmly.
The father and son each had their own opinions. Mo Yinchuan and Bai Youming looked at each other helplessly, and finally decided to listen to Huo Junge.
"Uh, Mr. Huo, should we listen to you or Junge?" Mo Yinchuan asked.
"Just listen to me, thank you both." Huo Boxiong sighed helplessly, sticking to his bottom line and principles.
Huo Boxiong is a person who does not have much ability to trust others. What Huo Boxiong wants to tell Huo Junge now concerns the core secrets of the Huo family, so naturally he does not want a third person to be present. Huo Boxiong cannot understand why Huo Junge trusts Mo Yinchuan and Bai Youming so much?
Huo Junge insisted on letting Mo Yinchuan and Bai Youming stay at the scene, otherwise he would not communicate with him further. Huo Jun was helpless, but had to accept it. However, because of the presence of Mo Yinchuan and Bai Youming, two outsiders, Huo Boxiong felt insecure about the topic he was going to discuss.
Huo Boxiong is the kind of person who is naturally unwilling to trust others. This trait may stem from his personality, upbringing, or some unpleasant experiences in the past.
Huo Boxiong felt extremely uneasy about Huo Junge's decision to let Mo Yinchuan and Bai Youming stay on the scene. In his opinion, the topic they were about to discuss concerned the core secrets of the Huo family, and such sensitive information naturally should not have outsiders present. His concerns were not unreasonable, because once the secrets were leaked, it might have unpredictable effects on the Huo family.
After all, this is about the lifeblood of the Huo family, about the survival of the Huo family's foundation. In a business war, how can there be so many close friends who are willing to die for each other? Some of them are just profit-oriented.
However, Huo Junge's insistence on letting Mo Yinchuan and Bai Youming stay still made Huo Boxiong feel disappointed from the bottom of his heart. Huo Boxiong thought that Huo Junge had become mature, sophisticated, cunning, experienced and knowledgeable about human nature after more than 20 years of working outside?
This involves core business secrets that concern the life and death of the family business. Huo Boxiong feels that Huo Junge should not be willful and gamble with human nature over such matters.
To outsiders, Huo Boxiong's distrust may stem from his pessimistic view of human nature. In Huo Boxiong's view, people often act out of their own interests, so human nature is not worthy of complete trust.
Old veterans are naturally well versed in life. Huo Boxiong's foresight in life experience would never allow him to be as willful as Huo Junge. Although Huo Boxiong felt disappointed with Huo Junge, the person he valued the most and regarded as the Huo family's last straw, because of Huo Junge's defenseless and childish behavior of being willing to run naked in front of Mo Yinchuan and Bai Youming, Huo Boxiong had to suppress his disappointment and find ways to continue to promote the collusion.
On the one hand, Huo Junge's way of doing things made Huo Boxiong, who easily distrusted people, feel insecure and thought that Huo Junge had no sense of commercial confidentiality. On the other hand, Huo Boxiong had to admit that Huo Junge's career success over the years was definitely not based on luck, which was enough to prove that Huo Junge was not a mediocre person.
Mo Yinchuan and Bai Youming looked at each other, and finally looked at Huo Junge. After seeing Huo Junge nod slightly, Mo Yinchuan and Bai Youming got up and left, leaving space for the father and son who had been estranged from each other for more than 20 years.
"You don't have to do this. I know why you are here, but I had no interest in the Huo family before, and I have even less interest in them now." Huo Junge spoke first in a calm tone.
"Son, now that you know why I'm here, I'm sure the situation of the Huo family is no longer a secret to you. The Huo family needs you." Huo Boxiong said earnestly, looking at Huo Junge with eyes full of expectations and anticipation.
"Sorry, knowing and me taking over are two different things. I have no such plan." Huo Junge refused directly without waiting for Huo Boxiong to appeal to his emotions and reason with him in a long speech.
It seemed like there was no affection at all, which made Huo Boxiong very sad.
"What you mean is, Yinchuan and the boy from the Bai family also know about our family's situation, so you think it's okay to say it in front of them?" Huo Boxiong had more or less guessed what Huo Junge had done just now, but he still couldn't help asking.
It is also convenient to know each other and find out the transparency of the outside world towards the situation of the Huo family.
"Yinchuan is not an ordinary person, you don't have to doubt it. Yinchuan's ability is no worse than his father and grandfather, and even better. What I can easily know, there is no way he doesn't know it, so you don't have to bother hiding it." Huo Junge's words broke Huo Boxiong's last fantasy.
"Dad is begging you for help, okay? No matter how much you hate dad in your heart, the Huo family is the place that gave you your life. Come back and save the Huo family." Huo Boxiong almost looked at Huo Junge with tears in his eyes.
"You're too serious. The Huo family gave me life, but also hurt my life. What you did to Yun'er made me lose her. At that time, your son Huo Junge was already dead. He left the Huo family not in anger, but because he was heartbroken. The reason why he is still alive in this world is because his Yun'er once made him swear that he would never give up the right to live at any time and no matter what happened. He promised, so he didn't follow her twenty-five years ago. So, you have already lost that son. Do you understand?" Huo Junge calmly told Huo Boxiong about his situation at that time.
This was the first time that Huo Junge had said these words from his heart to Huo Boxiong, something he had never said before.
Times have changed. Why did Huo Junge say it now when he didn't say it before? Huo Junge had a purpose. After he married Jiang Yun, Huo Boxiong would know sooner or later that Jiang Yun was not dead in the accident. Once Huo Boxiong knew the news, he might not intervene as strongly as he did in the past to separate the two. Huo Boxiong would definitely try his best to excuse himself.
Then, he intervened in Huo Junge and Jiang Yun's lives again. Huo Junge no longer wanted anyone to interfere in his and Jiang Yun's lives for any reason.
Huo Junge and Jiang Yun have already lost the best twenty-five years of their lives. In the rest of his life, Huo Junge doesn't want to waste even a single minute with Jiang Yun.
Even if that person was his biological father, Huo Junge didn't want to compromise anymore. Life is his own, and everyone should try to live for themselves without hurting others, instead of living in the expectations of others, especially when such expectations are contrary to his own expectations, Huo Junge must make a firm choice.
