HCB Chapter 290: Monsters and ghosts, stay away
Chapter 290: Monsters and ghosts, stay away
Before Shi Shi married Huo Shan, she was just a small clerk. It was thanks to Huo Shan that she had her current status and affluent life.
She has been cautious and careful in her actions over the years, which has brought her the good life she has today.
In front of Huo Liancheng, she is an obedient and filial daughter-in-law. In front of Huo Shan, she has to curry favor from time to time and play the role of a virtuous wife.
"Grandpa, my eldest sister is still doing business abroad. Why don't you say that she should stay at home to take care of her husband and children? And I work diligently every day and contribute to the group, but I haven't seen you criticize me."
Huo Xiaonuan changed her attitude, walked over and took Huo Liancheng's arm.
"Grandpa, you are prejudiced against my second sister-in-law, right?"
"You are wrong. How can you look at people with tinted glasses? It's so unfair to my second sister-in-law. She is studying and doing business. Everyone praises her and says that she is hardworking and beautiful. How can you not see her advantages?"
"You have to target her here every day and break up my second brother's family. Do you feel comfortable with that?"
Huo Xiaonuan said this and glanced at Shi Shi.
This woman is annoying and disgusting if I look at her for more than a few seconds!
Huo Liancheng remained silent. He did have some opinions, so much so that no matter what the girl did, he didn't like it.
"I know you have a thorn in your heart because of my uncle and Huo Jiayuan, but you have never thought that, to be honest, the Jing family is as powerful as ours. If my second sister-in-law is really the kind of unreasonable, cruel, and extremely selfish person, she could just divorce and then make a big deal out of this matter."
"If negative news gets out about her child being murdered by her husband's relatives, the impact on our group is foreseeable. Huo Jiayuan will definitely end up in jail, not to mention being paralyzed in bed. If the Jing family can make some more efforts and operate, maybe our family will fall."
"Second sister-in-law lost her own flesh and blood. She has already made concessions as much as possible. You are still finding faults and think she is not generous."
"Grandpa, you don't do things like this. Be lenient to yourself and strict with others. She is a good girl, not a saint. She has to dedicate everything to the Huo family. She is getting married, not selling herself."
Huo Xiaonuan defended Qiao Chuchu word by word, but Huo Liancheng listened without saying a word.
However, from his expression, it can be seen that the old man seems to have realized that something was wrong with him.
Originally, she didn't want to say these words, and she didn't want her second sister-in-law to come back from the bottom of her heart.
It is better to have less trouble than more. How many couples and lovers in this world have broken up because of family members' interference?
If my second sister-in-law and second brother don't return to the old house, these problems can be avoided as much as possible.
But today Shi Shi really went too far. It was obvious that she wanted to continue to discredit her second sister-in-law in front of Huo Liancheng.
Huo Xiaonuan couldn't stand it anymore. If she didn't talk to them, did they really think her second sister-in-law was easy to bully?
It happened that the housekeeper brought the family doctor over to examine the old man.
Huo Liancheng went to the side hall.
In the front hall, Shi Shi put away the teacup and prepared to leave with an expressionless face, when suddenly a foot stretched out in front of her, blocking her way.
"For my uncle's sake, I'll call you aunt, but don't forget your identity."
Huo Xiaonuan looked at her coldly, without any expression on her face.
"Sowing discord is your strong point, but as long as I, Huo Xiaonuan, am alive, don't even think about throwing dirty water on my second sister-in-law."
Huo Xiaonuan's mother is gone. Apart from the old man, the person closest to her over the years is Huo Yunzheng.
Anyone who deliberately targets her second brother and his wife is going against her, Huo Xiaonuan, and they will be killed!
Don’t get involved with any demons or monsters.
After warning Shi Shi, Huo Xiaonuan left with her small bag.
Shi Shi stood in the front hall, her face turning green.
She has been walking on thin ice during this period. Her son just got into trouble because of some bullshit school bullying and was punished by the family. According to Huo Liancheng's wishes, Huo Shan stopped giving pocket money to her son and also had bodyguards following him at school, nominally for protection but actually for supervision.
In the Huo family, although she is in charge of all trivial matters in the old house, in the final analysis, it is only a nominal housekeeper's power. The real people in charge of the Huo family are still the old man and Huo Yunzheng.
She had to live her life according to the expressions of Huo Liancheng and Huo Shan, and dared not make the slightest mistake.
Shi Shi had had enough of days like this.
She is now waiting for her son to join the group after he grows up so that he can have the opportunity to seize power. By then, the entire Huo family will be decided by the two of them, mother and son.
Shi Shi picked up the teacup and walked to the kitchen with her chin up. She wanted to see if today's meal was ready.
No matter what Huo Xiaonuan said, she was still a noble rich lady, enjoying wealth and glory.
A little impatience can ruin a big plan. Having endured all these years, she will definitely not make any mistakes in the final stage.
……
At the same time, inside Yunxi Group.
Qiao Chuchu held Huo Ziyan's hand, took the exclusive elevator, and went to the top floor.
"Madam, young master."
"Hello, madam."
"Madam, are you here to see the president? Do you need anything to drink?"
Everyone in the President's Office is very enthusiastic.
Some time ago, their President Huo publicly released a photo of himself and his wife, which fed them a lot of dog food all over the Internet.
The man is talented and the woman is beautiful, a match made in heaven.
Not to mention that the lady herself comes from a prominent family and is also working hard to run her career. She is excellent in every way. The two of them are simply a perfect match.
"Is Yun Zheng busy?" Qiao Chuchu asked.
She brought Zi Yan here without telling him in advance. Zi Yan was participating in a model competition today and she accompanied him. Huo Yunzheng said that he had to attend a multinational conference and could not postpone it, so he could not accompany Huo Zi Yan to the competition.
The event ended early, so she brought her son over.
Baby Zi Yan is very good and won the first prize in the children's group. They have to celebrate.
Yin Xiao brought two glasses of water and said respectfully, "Mr. Huo is still in the meeting. Madam, please take a seat first. It should be over in about ten minutes."
"Thank you, Special Assistant Yin." Qiao Chuchu smiled slightly.
"You're welcome, madam."
Qiao Chuchu sat on the sofa, reading comic books with her son, asking him to keep quiet and not disturb the work of his uncles and aunts.
Huo Ziyan is extremely well-behaved and always speaks in a low voice.
With a "ding" sound, a man walked out of the elevator with a black folder in his hand.
"Vice President."
Yin Xiao looked at Huo Jiachuan, reminding him that the meeting inside was not over yet.
Huo Jiachuan stopped and noticed that Qiao Chuchu and Huo Ziyan were also there.
"sister in law."
Huo Jiachuan walked towards Qiao Chuchu, looking a little uncomfortable.
"Little uncle." Huo Ziyan narrowed his eyes and revealed an innocent and lovely smile.
Huo Jiachuan also smiled, and then looked at Qiao Chuchu again.
"Sister-in-law, come over today if you are free."
Awkward greetings.
Qiao Chuchu looked up at him, without any emotion, and just said "hmm".
