Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Huo Xiuyuan didn’t say anything in the face of Xu Dong’s surprise. He was the only one who remembered the sorry state he was in overseas. He had never mentioned it to anyone.

As for his purpose of meeting Xu Dong here this time—

Huo Xiuyuan seemed to be waiting for something. Then, he saw the photo someone had sent him on his phone and smiled in satisfaction.

“Actually, we both have a common goal.”

He looked up and stared at Xu Dong. “Huo Yichen shouldn’t be the President of the Huo Corporation.”

Huo Xiuyuan had never hidden his motive for returning to the country. Even when he faced the sly old fox, Xu Dong, who was on par with his father, he spoke his mind very frankly.

“I know you’re not doing well in Huo Yichen’s hands now.” A smile appeared on his face. “I can help you.”

The board of directors’ current situation was not very dangerous, but at the very least, they didn’t feel too good.

Compared to when Huo Hong was still around, the board of directors could sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor. Now that Huo Yichen had taken over the position of President, the board of directors was restricted in every way. He had even cleaned up a few members and replaced them with new blood.

These actions were undoubtedly exploiting the power of Xu Dong and the others step by step, making them unable to cope.

Xu Dong’s expression didn’t change when his sore spot was mentioned. Even the smile on his face didn’t change at all.

He just looked into Huo Xiuyuan’s eyes, as if he could see through him, making everything about Huo Xiuyuan appear in front of him.

“But even if you sit in that position, it might not be beneficial to me.” Xu Dong gave a fake smile.

At his current height, he could naturally see more than before. It was not that Xu Dong was not interested in Huo Xiuyuan’s words, but he was still waiting.

Huo Xiuyuan was not angry at all. He only nodded calmly, as if he had long expected this.

“Since I came to cooperate with you this time, I naturally have my sincerity.” Huo Xiuyuan told him about this matter very frankly without any displeasure. Xu Dong was only a temporary alliance. The first thing he had to do was deal with Huo Yichen, the thief who had stolen his things, and pull him down from his position.

Huo Xiuyuan’s heart was filled with calculations. At the same time, he spoke nicely to Xu Dong.

The Huo Corporation should have belonged to him.

He had been raised by Huo Hong in the Huo Family since he was young. It could be said that he had long been the heir of the Huo Family.

Those things should have been his to begin with. On the other hand, the bastard child who appeared out of nowhere had snatched everything away. Now, he was still above him.

Every time Huo Xiuyuan thought of this, he wished he could kill Huo Yichen. However, he had forgotten that the original intention of bringing him to the Huo Family in the first place was only an “insurance procedure” nurtured by Huo Huohong.

Those so-called things that “belonged to him” originally belonged to Huo Hong’s biological son. If he had not killed the other party, these wouldn’t have fallen into Huo Yichen’s hands.

Perhaps he had caused all of this by a freak combination of factors.

Ye Zhen was sitting in the car and by the window. There was a distance between them, so he didn’t know the contents of Huo Xiuyuan and Xu Dong’s conversation. He could only see the two of them talking happily for a long time.

However, Ye Zhen originally thought that he would have to wait here for a long time. Unexpectedly, in just half an hour, he saw Xu Dong leave first.

As for Huo Xiuyuan, he was on the phone and seemed to be looking for someone. His actions of looking around proved this.

“Why are you suddenly looking for me?” Huo Xiuyuan frowned and looked around with the phone in his hand, but he didn’t find Kelly’s voice.

He originally wanted to discuss the details of their cooperation with Xu Dong. After all, the enemy of an enemy was a friend, and they happened to have the same enemy, Huo Yichen.

At the very least, both Huo Xiuyuan and Xu Dong were certain that they could become temporary partners, so they had a pleasant conversation.

However, what disrupted this plan was a sudden call from Kelly, forcing him to end his meeting with Xu Dong in advance and wait for the other party to come and look for him.

“Because you’re always busy, and I really want to stay with you, so I came to look for you,” Kelly said matter-of-factly.

She took what she had heard when she met Murong Qiao to heart.

Kelly’s thoughts were very simple. Since she liked Huo Xiuyuan so much and still wanted to stay by his side, Huo Xiuyuan would just stay at the side and do his own thing. It was fine as long as she didn’t disturb him.

However, Huo Xiuyuan was not in a good mood because his conversation was interrupted. It was fine if it was anyone whom he could flare up against, but not Kelly.

Helpless, he could only endure his temper that was about to flare up and soften his tone.

“Then I’ll wait for you here.” Huo Xiuyuan improvised and agreed to Kelly’s request to come over.

Kelly knew his location. Their cell phones were connected, so they could also know each other’s location.

However, Huo Xiuyuan had never paid attention to this. He only felt that it didn’t matter where Kelly went as long as she didn’t disturb him and delay his work.

On the other hand, Kelly would look at Huo Xiuyuan’s position from time to time, but she was not the one who suggested it. Kelly didn’t have much control over her lover at all. The one who really made this request was Kelly’s father.

Firstly, he was worried that his daughter would be tricked. Secondly, after knowing Huo Xiuyuan’s identity and background, he could be considered to have taken precautions to prevent anything from happening.

“Then I’ll come and look for you.” After hearing his agreement, Kelly’s voice became much lighter and she felt happy.

The call ended. Huo Xiuyuan pinched his nose in frustration before taking a deep breath.

However, the call had just stopped for less than a minute when his cell phone rang again.

However, this time, the ringtone was not from Kelly. Instead, it was from the other SIM card he had placed in his phone.

“…?” Huo Xiuyuan turned on his phone screen and frowned in confusion when he saw that the caller was an unknown number.

He couldn’t remember giving this number to any stranger.

However, after thinking about it, someone who knew his second number wouldn’t have called by coincidence. After thinking for a long time, Huo Xiuyuan picked up the call and placed the phone to his ear.

“Hello?” he said casually.

On the other end of the line, when the other party heard Huo Xiuyuan’s voice, she suddenly cheered in surprise. It was as if she couldn’t suppress her joy. It was obvious that it was a female voice.

“It’s really you!” The person on the other end said happily. “The number Weiyang gave me was indeed right…”

Weiyang? Jiang Weiyang?

Hearing this slightly familiar name, Huo Xiuyuan’s memories returned.

Then, he heard a familiar voice on the other end of the phone. After searching his memories for a long time, he recognized the person.

“Are you Huo Ya?” Huo Xiuyuan asked directly.

The person who called was indeed Huo Ya. However, she originally wanted to give it a try and called, but she didn’t expect the call to really go through..
