After the scumbag cheated on me, I turned around and married the heir to a wealthy family.

Zhu Jin turned his head and looked away from others, instead looking at the scenery outside the window.

After a long silence, Zhu Jin hummed the word "um" to express his agreement with his statement.

Huo Jingcheng raised his eyebrows, a smile flashed across his lips, and he said no more unnecessary words.

It is rare that the Huo family's old house is brightly lit late at night.

When Zhu Jin and Huo Jingcheng walked in, the old housekeeper lowered his voice and reminded, "Second Master, you and Second Wife can just watch from the side. You may as well not interfere in today's matter."

"Thank you." Zhu Jin said.

The old housekeeper waved his hand, "It's okay, you two go in first. I have to wait for Miss An An at the door."

Zhu Jin and Huo Jingcheng walked to the main hall.

The people in the big house originally lived in the old house, so naturally they arrived early and filled up the corner of the sofa.

Mr. Huo was sitting on the main seat of the mahogany sofa chair, leaning on crutches in front of him, his whole face tense.

Kneeling in front of him was a man with his head lowered.

Not far in front of the man stood Huo Jingxiu, who was dressed meticulously.

The voices of Zhu Jin and Huo Jingcheng when they came in caught the attention of the people in front of them.

Everyone turned their attention to them.

Mr. Huo's expression softened slightly, "Jingcheng, Jin Yatou, you two come here and sit down first."

Zhu Jin pushed Huo Jingcheng in the direction pointed by the old man.

After the two sat down, Zhu Jin looked around.

There was no figure of Zhu Yuan present.

Has she gone back?

Then, Zhu Jin felt a look full of hatred falling on her, which made her suddenly stiffen.

Huo Jingcheng calmly turned his wheelchair to help block his sight.

After a while, Huo Zhiqi's careless voice reached everyone's ears.

"Hey, why is the fourth brother-in-law kneeling on the ground? What happened?" Huo Zhiqi glanced at the people in front of him, and when he met Mr. Huo's cold gaze, he wisely chose to shut up.

Huo An'an and Ji Siyan walked behind Huo Zhiqi. They only glanced at each other lightly and didn't say much.

When everyone arrived and sat down, Mr. Huo said in a deep voice, "Fourth family member, tell yourself what stupid things you have done!"

The pressure brought by Mr. Huo's words made Zhu Jin unconsciously breathe faster.

Mr. Huo is worthy of being the business hegemon who has dominated the shopping mall for many years. With just one sentence, the entire Huo family living room was silent, and no one dared to speak out.

Zhu Jin saw Lu Siyuan trembling while he was kneeling on the ground, and he was obviously a little frightened.

"I, I was greedy for money, seeking small profits, and did not take the Huo family's interests into consideration, which led to the decline of the Huo family's reputation." Lu Siyuan's voice sounded calm, but a faint tremor could be heard.

"Speak more frankly." Mr. Huo said again.

Lu Siyuan swallowed and lowered his head, "I deliberately teamed up with others to change the silver purchase price to earn the difference."

No one dared to say anything. The only thing in the living room except Lu Siyuan's confession was Mr. Huo's questioning.

"anything else."

Lu Siyuan couldn't answer this time and hesitated for a long time.

The crutch that Mr. Huo was leaning on hit the ground heavily, making a dull thud.

Zhu Jin was startled.

A hand was placed on the back of her hand, giving her warmth and gradually calming down her racing heart.

"Dad." Huo Jingxiu couldn't stand it anymore and stood up.

Before she could continue, Mr. Huo directly raised his crutch and said, "Get out of the way!"

The harsh words made everyone present stunned for a moment.

Mr. Huo has never been so angry on weekdays.

Huo Jingxiu bit his lower lip.

"Xiuxiu, go back." Lu Siyuan said, "I did something wrong, and my father wants to punish me. I admit it."

Huo Jingxiu reluctantly returned to his original position, but his eyes remained fixed on Lu Siyuan.

"Dad, I really don't know what else you are talking about." Lu Siyuan said, "I hope you can point me to a clear path. If I did it, I admit it! But I won't admit it when others slander me! "

What he said was impassioned, and he had a good attitude towards admitting his mistake.

Zhu Jindu doubted whether Mr. Huo had really been deceived.

He has already admitted his previous crimes, so why hide them.

Mr. Huo's expression became even colder after hearing this, "Are you sure there is nothing else?"

Lu Siyuan's answer this time was not as decisive as before, but with a bit of hesitation, "I..."

"Lu Siyuan, Lu Siyuan, you are so brave!"

Mr. Huo was furious, stood up on crutches, and glared viciously at the man kneeling on the ground in front of him.

"Who allows you to secretly attack your partners for your own selfish purposes?"

"If you want to change suppliers, you can. But who asked you to use unfair competition methods? Our Huo family does not recognize such people!"

Lu Siyuan's back stiffened.

The person who was originally upright lowered his head in an instant.

He didn't say anything, but his attitude clearly acquiesced to what Mr. Huo just said.

Huo Jingxiu's legs softened and she sat directly on the chair. She closed her eyes.

Zhu Jin opened his mouth slightly in surprise.

The development of this matter was beyond her expectation.

"Lu Siyuan, Lu Siyuan, you did a great job of accepting bribes, helping others scheme against your partners, and earning the price difference!" Every time Mr. Huo said a word, the crutch in his hand hit the ground hard with a dull thud. sound.

This moment seemed to hit the hearts of everyone in front of me.

"I think you have forgotten whose family you are from, and what you are supposed to do!"

Mr. Huo had a calm face and glanced around coldly, taking in everyone's reactions. "You have made a lot of contributions to the Huo family. I only think that you were deceived by others and took the wrong path this time. Not calling the police and demanding compensation.”

Huo Jingxiu breathed a sigh of relief.

"But." Mr. Huo paused for a moment before continuing, "You can't stay in Beijing City. You can go to Hai City. It just so happens that the director of the sales department of He City has been transferred recently and there is a vacancy. You can go and practice hard and make a good job. Come back after the results.”

Although He City is not far from Beijing City, its development is average and it is mainly agricultural. Huo Group's sales there have never been very impressive.

Going to Heshi to work as a sales director would have been considered an exile in ancient times.

Huo Jingxiu immediately objected when he heard this, "Dad!"

Mr. Huo looked at her with cold eyes, and she immediately became mute.

"Okay." Lu Siyuan was afraid that Huo Jingxiu would make Mr. Huo unhappy again, so he immediately agreed to the matter, "I am willing to go to Heshi, as long as Dad can calm down. This matter is my fault alone, Jingxiu doesn't know anything."

"Okay. Tomorrow you pack your things and go to the river market. I will ask someone to help you."

Mr. Huo made the final decision on how Lu Siyuan would go next.

And the so-called arranging for help probably means arranging for people to monitor him and prevent him from taking the wrong path again.

However, no one would be stupid enough to explain this matter.

"I want you to come back. I hope you all know one thing." Mr. Huo said solemnly, "Everyone in the Huo family will be prosperous, and everyone will suffer."

"I am old, not dead."

"Hide all your little thoughts from me, don't let me catch them!"
