The beloved one of the rich brother

Chapter 148: Such despicable behavior

Huo Chengluo was standing with his hands behind his back, looking out the window.

Yin Jie was standing behind him, reporting the situation respectfully with his head bowed.

Huo Chengluo's low voice sounded, with suppressed emotions, "What happened last night?"

Yin Jie reported truthfully: "Last night, the lady couldn't contact you and was worried that something might happen to you, so she went directly to Yujingwan. But when we got to the door, we were blocked by security personnel, so we had to force our way in. During that time, we had some disputes with your father."

Huo Chengluo's body remained motionless, like a sculpture, but his eyes became increasingly profound, making it difficult to glimpse his emotions.

He spoke slowly, "What happens next?"

Yin Jie answered one by one, "After that, the young lady and your father had some unpleasant words. But the young lady did not give up, she insisted on seeing you. In the end, the young lady still forced her way into your room."

Huo Chengluo remained silent, as if waiting for Yin Jie to continue.

Yin Jie coughed lightly, hesitated for a moment, and then continued, "After kicking the door open, we found a woman in your bed."

"According to observation, the woman was naked and had signs of having had sex on her body. And you locked yourself in the bathroom."

Hearing this, Huo Chengluo's jaw instantly tightened, and his fists hanging on both sides of his body were quietly clenched.

His eyes became as sharp as a knife, and a cold aura emanated from his body. The temperature in the entire room seemed to drop by several degrees.

His originally calm face was now covered with frost, and the anger in his heart was burning, uncontrollably.

This sudden information was like a sharp sword, piercing his heart.

He tried hard to recall what happened last night, especially what happened after Shu Yingxue hugged him from behind, but his mind was blank.

"Let Yin Qian light some calming aromatherapy in the room and find a way to let Yiyi sleep a little longer." After leaving these words, Huo Chengluo strode away.

Yin Jie watched the man's back as he left, scratched his hair, and then quickly dialed Rong Pei's number.

Huo Chengluo walked into the spacious and bright hall with his tall and slender figure. Yu Huiran, who had been fidgeting all night, stood up immediately upon seeing this.

She hurried forward, her face full of concern and distress, and looked her son up and down carefully, "Chengluo, Chengluo, how do you feel now? Are you okay?"

As she spoke, her hands trembled slightly as she gently touched the gauze on his forehead, "This wound..."

Huo Chengluo stretched out his hand, firmly grasped his mother's palm, and said in a calm tone, "Mom, don't worry, I'm fine!"

Yu Huiran quickly covered her mouth with her hands, trying to hold back the tears that were about to burst out.

But when she thought about what her son had endured last night, she couldn't control her emotions anymore and tears rolled down her cheeks.

She stammered guiltily, "Chengluo..."

"Mom, I have something to say to Dad!" Huo Chengluo interrupted his mother without any hesitation. His indifferent eyes shot straight at Huo Yongan who was sitting beside him like an arrow.

Huo Yongan slowly stood up from his seat with a calm expression. When his eyes met his son's, he showed no intention of retreating.

"I know what you want to ask." Huo Yongan's tone was as calm as water, but it contained an unquestionable firmness.

He paused for a moment, then admitted frankly: "Yes, everything that happened last night was carefully planned and arranged by me in advance. Your grandfather and your mother knew nothing about it."

"reason!"

Huo Yongan chuckled, "Chengluo, at this point, does the reason still matter?"

"Father..." Huo Chengluo's cold and distant voice suddenly sounded.

Huo Yongan's body trembled slightly, because he had never heard his son call him in this way.

At this moment, these two words coming out of his mouth seemed to carry a special kind of irony.

"You and I have been father and son for so many years, but it turns out that we don't understand each other." Huo Chengluo spoke every word slowly, as if he was deliberately emphasizing the meaning.

Huo Yongan was stunned, "What do you mean by this?"

Huo Chengluo asked back word by word, "How could I have given you the illusion that I could be easily manipulated?"

Huo Yongan's face began to look a little ugly.

Huo Chengluo's eyes became sharp. "And you, my father whom I once respected, I just realized that you have such a stubborn mind, and..."

After a pause, he bit the words and added a few words clearly, "Your behavior is still so despicable!"

Huo Yongan was obviously embarrassed to be told this by his own son in person, and he shouted, "Shut up, what's your attitude? How dare you say that to me?"

Huo Chengluo lowered his head slightly, and brushed off the non-existent dust on his cuffs elegantly and calmly, and then said in an extremely cold tone:

"Since you are able to scheme against your own son, I can no longer respect you as a father."

His voice was bone-chilling and contained a deep sense of alienation, as if at this moment, an unreachable, insurmountable wall had been erected between them, father and son.

Huo Chengluo raised his head again, staring straight at his father with a sharp gaze. The indifference and alienation in his eyes made Huo Yongan's heart tremble violently involuntarily.

The man in front of him was clearly still the beloved son he was so familiar with and who had once made him so proud, but for some reason, he had become so strange at this moment, as if he had become a completely different person.

Yu Huiran on the side was shocked, her lips trembling, but she couldn't utter a word.

Huo Yongan's expression was extremely ugly. He asked angrily, "What do you mean by this?"

Huo Chengluo's face was as gloomy as water, and he announced in a firm tone, "From today on, I will officially resign from the position of president of Horton Group and completely leave Horton Group. From now on, I will no longer have any connection with Horton Group."

At this point, he raised his wrist slightly, quickly glanced at the time displayed on his watch, and emphasized: "The relevant statement will be released on time at 9 o'clock this morning."

What this means is that in just fifteen minutes, everything will be settled.

When Huo Yongan heard this, he looked up suddenly and stared at Huo Chengluo with wide eyes.

Huo Chengluo added calmly, "Father, you should start looking for the next heir."

Huo Yongan's pupils suddenly contracted, and he roared in disbelief, "Are you crazy? What are you talking about?"

If the news of the president's resignation without reason spreads, the consequences will be disastrous. The group's stock will probably plummet or even hit the limit, and the losses will be incalculable.

Hearing this, Yu Huiran couldn't help crying out loud, "Chengluo, you, you don't do this..."

Her voice was filled with pain and helplessness.
