The old housekeeper lowered his head and said slowly: "Master, you are doing this for the eldest young master's own good."

Subotian smiled bitterly, "But in his opinion, I am harming him now. Do you think if I agree with him to be with Xiao Muzhen, will he be less hostile to me?"

"The young master will understand your good intentions one day."

"Ugh……"

Su Botian's face was full of fatigue. Too many things had happened recently, and he was a little exhausted mentally and physically. He had to admit that he was really old.

"Master, the medicine in the kitchen is ready. I'll bring it to you."

Soon, the old housekeeper brought a bowl of dark medicine in front of Su Botian.

Subotian frowned, "After taking this medicine for so many days, not only has my headache not improved, but it has become more and more painful. It doesn't matter if I don't drink it!"

"Master, how can this be done?! The last time I had a headache, I drank this medicine and gradually got better. Now I think it's the onset of a headache, so I'd better drink it."

Subotian was silent for a few seconds, then took the medicine from the butler's hand and drank it with a frown.

He didn't notice the flash of light in the old housekeeper's eyes.

After drinking the medicine, Subotian rubbed his painful temples, stood up and said, "There will be a meeting at the company at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. Call me at six o'clock."

"it is good."

After Subotian left, the old housekeeper put the bowl back in the kitchen and dialed Su Nan's phone number after returning to his room.

"I have done as you said, when did you let my granddaughter go?"

Su Nan chuckled lightly and said slowly: "Uncle Zhong, don't worry. Once I confirm that you have indeed given the medicine I gave you to my uncle, I will send your granddaughter back."

Just thinking about Su Botian's expression when he knew that the housekeeper he had used for so many years had drugged his own people, Su Nan couldn't help but feel excited.

Originally, he didn't want to do this. He planned to hand over the Su family to Su Baitian when he got old, but Huo Yunting suddenly appeared.

Su Botian would rather try his best to get Huo Yunting to come back and inherit the Su family than to hand over the Su family to him. Su Botian deserves to die for this reason alone!

Uncle Zhong's expression changed and he said angrily: "I have already done what you asked me to do! If I can't see my granddaughter before tomorrow, I will tell the truth to you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a little girl's scream and plea for help came from over there.

"Grandpa...save me...I don't want to be beaten again...wuwuwuyou..."

Hearing his granddaughter's cry for help, Uncle Zhong's face was full of anger, "Su Nan, are you still a human?! My granddaughter is only eight years old!"

"Uncle Zhong, since you know that your granddaughter is only eight years old, just listen to me. If you dare to threaten me again, I can't guarantee whether she will be a living person or a corpse when she is returned to you."

"you!"

Uncle Zhong was full of anger and regret. He should not have been threatened by Sunan at that time, and it was too late to regret now.

"Okay, if you really do as I say, my uncle will vomit blood and fall into a coma in a few days. After I take control of the Su family, I will let your granddaughter go."

After saying that, Sunan hung up the phone directly.

Uncle Zhong put down his phone, his eyes full of pain and regret.

If he was given another chance, he would definitely tell Su Botian all the truth.

However, regret now...is it too late...

After moving into Xiao Muzhen's villa, Shen Tian finally had a good sleep.

When she woke up the next morning, she saw Xiao Muzhen reading a document while eating breakfast. Shen Tian's eyes flashed with surprise.

"Zhen Zhen, it's Saturday, do you still have to work?"

Xiao Muzhen put down the document in her hand, looked at Shen Tian and said, "No, it's some matters of my own that I have to deal with."

"Oh."

"You come over for breakfast, I'm going out later."

"So early?!"

"Well, I'm going out first. If you need anything, just call me."

Before Shen Tian could say anything, Xiao Muzhen had already picked up the documents and stood up to leave.

It was just after eight o'clock in the morning when we drove to the door of Huo Yunting's villa.

Xiao Muzhen took a deep breath, picked up the documents from the passenger seat and got out of the car, stood at the door and rang the doorbell.

Soon, the door opened.

Seeing Xiao Muzhen, Huo Yunting frowned.

"You came here so early to see Yiyi?"

Xiao Muzhen looked up at him, "No, I'm coming to find you."

After the two sat down in the living room, Xiao Muzhen handed him the document in her hand.

"This is the client I contacted last night who is willing to cooperate with you. See if there is any need. It will take a long time to snatch the Huo family back from Tang Ruxing. The clients here are all the ones I have screened and worked with from the Tang family. If there is a holiday, you can believe it.”

Huo Yunting took the document, but did not open it in a hurry. Instead, he stared at Xiao Muzhen, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.

"Why do you want to help me?"

Facing his dark eyes, Xiao Muzhen looked away calmly.

"Because the Huo family was taken away by Tang Ruxing, it was because of the Xiao family. You wanted to help the Xiao family before, so I should help you now."

"Is it just because of Xiao?"

Xiao Muzhen frowned, and her voice became a bit colder, "Huo Yunting, I am already engaged to Shi Yiheng. It is impossible for us. I also hope that you will stop showing that you have lingering feelings for me. The list has been I’ve given it to you. If you want to believe it, just take a look. If you don’t want to, forget it.”

She stood up and left directly, her steps fast and urgent.

When she got back to the car, she looked up at the door and saw Huo Yunting standing by the door, his eyes falling on her. She unconsciously tightened her grip on the steering wheel, quickly started the car and left.

On the other side, Shi Yiheng knew that Xiao Muzhen was looking for Huo Yunting, so he immediately threw his phone.

The servant was startled and lowered his head and did not dare to speak for fear of offending Shi Yiheng.

"Prepare the car, I want to go out!"

As soon as Xiao Muzhen returned to the door of the villa, she saw Shi Yiheng's car parked not far away.

She got out of the car and walked towards his car. When she was about to reach the car, the back seat door was pushed open, and Shi Yiheng got out of the car with an ugly face.

"Why did you come here suddenly?"

"What are you doing to find Huo Yunting?"

Hearing this, the look on Xiao Muzhen's face turned cold, "You sent someone to follow me?"

Shi Yiheng sneered, "I was supposed to protect you, but I didn't expect to find out that you were going to find Huo Yunting. It's over between you and him. Is there anything important enough that you need to go to his house to find him?!"

Facing Shi Yiheng's doubts, Xiao Muzhen couldn't help but frown.

"Shi Yiheng, I am indeed engaged to you, but this does not mean that I have sold my freedom to you. It is not your turn to control who I want to meet or associate with."

There was anger on her face. After saying this, she turned to leave, but Shi Yiheng grabbed her wrist.

"Have you forgotten how he hurt you in the first place?! When you were in a coma in the hospital, he was openly engaged to another woman! If you are still looking for him now, don't you feel that you are making a fool of yourself? !”
