The husband I got is actually the heir to a wealthy family

"Because you are my own choice, unlike others." Huo Beichen answered frankly.

"But, you chose me that day, and it was also a blind selection. How can you be sure that I will be the one you like?" Mu Ningxi asked without giving up.

"Do you think I would be a person who does things without thinking ahead?" Staring into Mu Ningxi's eyes, Huo Beichen asked back.

When asked this, Mu Ningxi was silent for a few seconds before shaking her head slightly.

Huo Beichen always plans and plans things out in advance, otherwise, how could he develop such a large multinational company abroad in just a few years, and how could he lead the Huo Group to a new level now.

But, if that was the case, did it mean that Huo Beichen had investigated her in advance, and that their chance encounter at the Civil Affairs Bureau that day was not a coincidence?

Mu Ningxi looked into Huo Beichen's eyes, trying to see the answer from them: whether it was just as she had imagined, that day, Huo Beichen and her would get the marriage certificate, and it was all planned in advance.

If that's the case, does it mean that Huo Beichen already had a good impression of her and that's why he made such an arrangement?

"I'm not as amazing as you think. It's impossible for me to have planned the encounter at the Civil Affairs Bureau that day." As if seeing through Mu Ningxi's inner thoughts, Huo Beichen denied it.

Seeing that Mu Ningxi had no intention of interrupting him, Huo Beichen continued, "It was purely coincidental that we met at the Civil Affairs Bureau that day. It was just that when I was looking at the employee information of Huo's, I got to know you a little bit."

"That day I heard you calling and learned that someone had broken off your engagement, and I happened to be in the same boat as you. Based on my understanding of you, I wanted to take a gamble."

"Since my family is urging me to get married, why shouldn't I choose someone who looks good to me?"

"Fortunately, I made the right bet."

After Huo Beichen finished speaking, he stared at Mu Ningxi motionlessly, waiting for her response.

Looking at the sincerity in Huo Beichen's eyes, Mu Ningxi understood that he was not lying.

"I'm also very lucky to have met you that day, otherwise, I might have been used as a stepping stone by Mu Yuande to marry Liu Wenbo." Thinking of the aggressive pressure from Mu Yuande and his wife, Mu Ningxi shuddered in her heart.

Judging from the situation at the time, Mu Yuande and Liu Yunzhi were determined to make Mu Ningxi marry Liu Wenbo. In order to allow her to marry into the Liu family smoothly, those two people might have done some shady things behind Mu Ningxi's back.

With Mu Ningxi's personal abilities, he would definitely be unpredictable.

"This kind of thing will never happen again, my dear. Don't worry, I won't let anyone bully you again. Not only that, I will also help you find the culprit who murdered your parents."

Holding Mu Ningxi in his arms, Huo Beichen promised.

The two of them stayed in the room for a while before going downstairs.

Seeing the two people coming downstairs, the servant arranged by Aunt Qin immediately brought the breakfast that had been prepared to the table.

"After dinner, I want to go back to Liyuan." Mu Ningxi and Huo Beichen discussed at the dinner table.

"When you go back, spend less time on your phone and computer, and get more rest." Knowing the real purpose of Mu Ningxi's return to Liyuan, Huo Beichen reminded.

Seeing that Huo Beichen had no objection to her returning to Liyuan, Mu Ningxi smiled and responded, "I will definitely listen to you."

Looking at the happily laughing Mu Ningxi, Huo Beichen shook his head speechlessly. He had planned to let her stay away from work and rest peacefully for two days, but he didn't expect that this girl just couldn't stop.

It's really troublesome to marry a workaholic wife.

Huo Beichen complained silently in his heart.

After returning to Liyuan, the two went back to their room together. Mu Ningxi was about to change into home clothes when she heard Huo Beichen's phone ringing.

When Mu Ningxi came out after changing her clothes, Huo Beichen said to her, "There is something urgent that I need to deal with right away. You stay at home and take care of yourself."

Mu Ningxi nodded and watched Huo Beichen leave in a hurry.

He said he would stay home with her for a few days, but he was called out as soon as he came back. It seems that being a president is really not easy. He doesn't even have the freedom to take a vacation. How pitiful.

Secretly feeling sorry for Huo Beichen in her heart, Mu Ningxi opened the door of the study and walked in.

"Why did you call me here in such a hurry? Did something happen?" Huo Beichen came to Zhao Yu's house and asked hurriedly when he saw Zhao Yu.

"Look at these photos." Zhao Yu did not give a direct answer, but took out a stack of photos and placed them in front of Huo Beichen.

Huo Beichen looked at Zhao Yu doubtfully, then looked carefully at the photo Zhao Yu had placed on the table.

"Zhou Ziyi?" Huo Beichen asked uncertainly after seeing the familiar person in the photo.

Zhao Yu nodded and responded, "Yes, it was Zhou Ziyi. The person behind the incident with Zeng Xiaoqiang was Zhou Ziyi."

After a pause, Zhao Yu continued, "As far as I know, Zeng Shijin's death is also related to Zhou Ziyi."

"I really underestimated him before." After listening to Zhao Yu's story, Huo Beichen said coldly.

"Indeed, we all underestimated Zhou Ziyi. We didn't expect him to be so tolerant. It seems that he hasn't let go of what happened to the Zhou family back then." Zhao Yu nodded and echoed Huo Beichen's words.

Huo Beichen nodded, his thoughts going back to more than ten years ago.

At that time, Huo Beichen was supposed to go to high school, and the Huo family was run by his father Huo Hongzhang.

Huo Beichen remembered that one day when he just got home from school, he saw Zhou Ziyi's father Zhou Tianzhang coming to the house to look for his father. In the end, Zhou Tianzhang left angrily.

A few days after this incident, Huo Beichen learned that Zhou Tianzhang was sent to the hospital because of cerebral hemorrhage. Although he was rescued in time, Zhou Tianzhang was still paralyzed.

After losing Zhou Tianzhang, the backbone of the Zhou Group, the company almost went bankrupt. In the end, it was Zhou Tianzhang's brother who was abroad who returned to the company to take charge of the situation, which prevented the Zhou Group from going bankrupt.

But after such changes, the Zhou family could never regain its former glory and was left far behind by the Huo family, the Shen family, and several other big families, and could no longer be compared with those companies.

Huo Beichen later found out that Zhou Tianzhang came to see his father that day and wanted his father to give up an order that Huo's company had just signed. Zhou Tianzhang said that the order was originally negotiated by Zhou's company, and it was Huo's company that interfered.

After being rejected by Huo Hongzhang, Zhou Tianzhang went home and couldn't figure it out. Coupled with the loss of that big order, Zhou's business came to a standstill for a time. For this reason, Zhou Tianzhang suffered a cerebral hemorrhage, which caused paralysis.

At that time, Zhou Tianzhang's son Zhou Ziyi and Huo Beichen were in the same high school. After something happened at home, Zhou Ziyi became silent.

After Zhou Ziyi graduated from university, his uncle who was not interested in the company gave up his position as president of Zhou Group and let Zhou Ziyi take charge.

Although the two families had such a history, Huo Beichen had never seen dissatisfaction with him on Zhou Ziyi's face. Not only that, every time Zhou Ziyi saw Huo Beichen, he was always polite. There was no sign of resentment in the other party's heart.

No wonder Zhao Yu just said that Zhou Ziyi hid it so well.

"Beichen, what are you going to do next?" Looking at Huo Beichen who had remained silent, Zhao Yu asked.
