Chapter 288 It Would be Better to Have a Dog
However, the CEO did not pick up the phone until the call ended.
The CEO didn't answer the phone, but Liu Ni was relieved.
After all, she had already reported this to a certain CEO. However, the fact that this CEO was unable to pick up the phone was something that she could not control!
The Huo house was located in the middle of the mountain, which was surrounded by beautiful scenery. The house occupied a large part of the forest. From afar, it looked like a vacation house.
The manor was surrounded by a tall red wall. Upon entering through the gate, they found themselves in the east, west, and north of the manor. However, these rooms were just for the servants of the Huo Family to live in.
It would take about 30 minutes to get through the main hall and into the villa.
These villas were built in the deepest parts of the villa. Just being near them made one feel a sense of respect and dejection.
Inside the house, the Huo family was sitting on a wooden chair beside a long sandalwood table in front of the fireplace.
They were still dressed in their elegant, retro cheongsam, midmount attire, pink headwear, and white petticoats. The boy wore a small, formal suit, tie, and leather shoes. His hair was neatly combed to the side.
The people sitting on the wooden chairs surprisingly did not speak. Even the children were as quiet as wooden puppets.
The atmosphere was especially gloomy and depressing!
Huo Feng, the chief of the Huo Family, who was holding onto a walking stick, sat majestically at the head of the long table. His expression was sharp like an emperor who had made his own decisions in the past, as he glanced at the people around the long table.
Finally, his gaze fell onto the person sitting opposite him. He was the only one among the crowd who wore a casual suit and had a haughty appearance.
The man's expensive black suit was unrestrainedly opened, and the white shirt underneath the black striped vest was untied. There were even three loose shirts at the collar.
The man lowered his eyes in disdain, his short black hair like his person, lazy and fluffy. Amongst the group of well-dressed people, he seemed somewhat slovenly.
However, the cold, arrogant air that emanated from his body made it so that no one dared to object to his "extraordinary" attitude.
Huo Feng's eyes flashed with a glint of light, and his voice became hoarse: "Yaoting, the reason I called you back is to discuss with you about your big brother Mohan, what do you think?"
Huo Yaoting didn't even raise his eyes, and spoke with an indifferent tone, "Didn't you guys already discuss this? Why don't you just tell me the result of your discussion, and I will do as you say? "
Huo Feng squinted his eyes, "I think the matter between Mohan and the Gu family's second young miss must have had a huge impact on our Huo's. Now that there's news of them causing trouble in the south of the city, Mohan ?"
"Second Miss of the Gu family? Is there a Second Miss in the Gu family? "
Huo Yaoting lifted his eyelids, Mo Mo Mo glanced at the hypocrite Huo Mohan who was sitting beside him, looking like he was waiting to deal with him.
Huo Mohan did not raise his head.
"Speaking of which, that Second Miss Gu is the same type of person as Yaoting."
Huo Mohan's mother, Huo Feng's original wife Xi Hongfei said as she coldly looked at Huo Yaoting.
Her voice and expression had been worn down to calmness and nothing else in such a family.
When she said this, no one could figure out her true emotions and the side emotions in her tone.
But Huo Yaoting knew about it.
Gu Xi
ing was an illegitimate child in the Gu family, but in the Huo family, wasn't he the same?
"Lady Xi's words still have such meaning." Huo Yaoting coldly looked at Xi Hongfei. The coldness that slowly converged in his eyes was not concealed at all as he said, "But is it possible for you to call me Yaoting? I think it's more appropriate for Mistress Xi to call me Chairman Huo. "
Xi Hongfei's pupils constricted, her fingertips pinching her palm, as she calmly looked at Huo Yaoting, "Yaoting is now the CEO of the Huo's, her status and identity is completely different. Even after returning home, she has yet to jump out of her identity as a CEO."
"Yaoting, you need me to remind you that I'm still your auntie at home. Just like Second Miss Gu in the Gu family, they all had an aunt. Heh ? If it wasn't for the incident between Second Miss Gu and my Mohan, I actually think that woman would be a good match for you! "
"Auntie? "Ms. Xi has been to the market many times at her age. You're used to people calling you auntie, aren't you? You're not used to people not calling you Auntie when you're back home, are you?"
Huo Yaoting laughed coldly, the hostility in his eyes becoming even stronger.
"Market? "Will I go to that place?" Xi Hongfei let out a disdainful cold snort from the tip of his nose.
"I forgot, Ms. Xi is the precious daughter of the former mayor, of course you wouldn't go to a place like the market. After all, the previous mayor painstakingly saved 'ill-gotten wealth', it's more than enough for Ms. Xi to squander!"
"Huo Yaoting, my father has been an upright and fair man his entire life, I will not allow anyone to insult my father!"
After being struck in the face, he could not bring the mask down anymore, so Xi Hongfei stood up in anger and pointed at Huo Yaoting as he spoke angrily.
Huo Yaoting leaned against the back of the chair, facing Xi Hongfei's anger from the embarrassment, his face remained calm and refined, "A loud voice might not be reasonable, Mistress Xi, please take note!"
Xi Hongfei screamed in anger, "Huo Yaoting!"
"Enough! Do you still have the look of an elder?! " Huo Feng bellowed as he glared at Xi Hongfei.
Xi Hongfei clenched his fingertips, his entire body trembling and he stood straight.
Both of his eyes were red, filled with anger and hatred, staring straight at Huo Yaoting.
If it wasn't for this man, his father wouldn't have fallen overnight, and he wouldn't have to bear the notoriety as a corrupt official to commit suicide.
Her father was the man who doted on her the most in her life!
He was also the man she loved the most in her life!
But because of that bastard Huo Yaoting, he had left her long ago!
She hated him! She hated him!
She swore to kill him with her own hands, to take revenge for her father!
"Sit down!" Huo Feng bellowed, his brows knitted, indicating that he was at his limit.
Seeing that, Huo Mohan squinted his eyes, got up, walked to Huo Feng's other side and held onto his shoulder, "Mom."
"Pa!"
Huo Mohan's face was suddenly slapped to the side. He touched his face, and a red light flashed past his eyes.
Huo Mohan turned his head towards Xi Hongfei with no expression.
"Pa!"
Xi Hongfei raised his hand and slapped Huo Mohan again, his eyes red as he roared in anger, "What a useless trash! What's the use of me keeping you? It would be better to have a dog! "
Xi Hongfei slapped Huo Mohan twice, everyone on the scene did not even bat an eyelid, they coldly watched from the side, as though they were already used to this kind of scene.
Huo Yaoting tapped his fingertips on the table, sneered, and lowered his head.
