"Hello, Mr. Hobbs." Huo Qiyu still kept opening the door slightly, and he could talk to Philip, but as long as Philip didn't forcefully barge in, he would never be able to enter the door, "Joe is already asleep. Why don't you let him in?" Rest here for one night, and I will send him there tomorrow?"

"Don't bother you," Philip said. "Could you wake Joe up for me?"

"He's already fallen asleep. It's not good to wake him up."

"It's okay." Philip said in a low voice, "If Mr. Huo is afraid that Joe will be unhappy, I can call for him myself."

"As I said, Joe is already asleep." Huo Qiyu's tone was slightly cold, "Don't disturb the child."

Feeling the faint toughness in his words, Philip could no longer hold back, and his tone became irritable: "I am Joe's brother, and there is nothing wrong with me taking him home. You are an outsider, why bother to meddle in our family affairs?"

"Whether I'm an outsider of your family or not, this is New York, I don't agree, no one can snatch someone from me." Huo Qiyu said calmly, and gestured towards Philip to see off the guests, "Please go back."

Almost as soon as he finished those two words, Philip felt that something seemed to be pressing against his abdomen. He looked down and saw that Huo Qiyu's other hand, which had been in his pocket all the time, was holding a pistol. to him.

Philip was shocked: "You------"

All the bodyguards behind him immediately raised their guns, Huo Qiyu remained unmoved, and the hand holding the gun did not tremble at all. Obviously, he was an old hand.

"You are trespassing, and I have the right to kill you." He said, "As for the follow-up matters, I can still bear the responsibility for killing the eldest son of the Hobbs family by mistake."

"Put down the gun!" Philip shouted.

The bodyguards hesitated for a moment, but put down their guns one after another.Philip stared into Huo Qiyu's indifferent eyes, trying to stay calm: "Kill me, and my people will kill you too. You don't have to take this risk for Joe."

"Even if you kill me before I shoot, neither you nor the Hobbs family can bear the diplomatic responsibility or LH's revenge." Huo Qiyu bent his fingers slightly, as if he was about to pull the trigger, "If you How will your father deal with you for causing so much trouble for the family? You don't have to take this risk for Joe."

A drop of sweat dripped from Philip's brow.

His father asked him to bring Joe back to England, and told him that his authority was "at all costs", but he was sure that Huo Qiyu's tough stop was absolutely not included in his father's initial estimate.

He knew the status of this man in New York. He was the "military adviser" of the Lockett family. There were even rumors that he was actually George Lockett's gay lover, not to mention that he also had the special status of a diplomat. Regardless of his level, his unnatural death will inevitably cause international disputes after it is exposed.

If he didn't bring Joe back tonight, he wouldn't have a chance when Elizabeth came tomorrow, but he didn't know if Huo Qiyu had any backup. If he took the risk and still didn't bring Joe back, then he didn't even think about the consequences .

What's more, the most important thing is that there is a gun on his stomach now, and he may die at any time.

"If you stop tonight, it will be a mission failure at most, which may affect your father's perception of you, but it is not a final decision on the battle between you and your brother's inheritance rights." Huo Qiyu said leisurely, "But if you want to Take a risk, whether the Hobbs family will exist in the future will be unknown, and you should think clearly about it."

Philip's face was uncertain, and after a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go!"

The bodyguards got into the car one by one, Huo Qiyu retracted his gun, and a bodyguard next to him immediately supported Philip.Before getting into the car, Philip suddenly looked back at Huo Qiyu: "If you have too many grievances, you will not end well in the future."

"It's very necessary to have a grudge against you." Huo Qiyu ignored Philip's hint, and closed the door behind him, "Be quiet when you leave. Don't disturb the children."

"Thank you for yesterday."

In the restaurant, Shen Yun poured a glass of wine and clinked glasses with Huo Qiyu.Huo Qiyu smiled and said, "It's nothing."

Before Shen Yun came to New York, she found that the plane had been planted with a bomb. She was shocked and immediately began to investigate the situation around her, so she would not be able to come.At the time, I was secretly glad, but now that I think about it, it's more like turning the tiger away from the mountain: If it wasn't because of Huo Qiyu last night, Shen Qiao might have returned to England with Philip.

"Have you and Hobbs broken faces?" Huo Qiyu asked while cutting the steak, "As far as I know, Charles Hobbs still cares about Joe's studies."

"He cares about Joe's studies because he wants Joe to help him launder money in Hollywood, but now for him, blackmailing me is Joe's greater value." Shen Yun's indifferent pupils reflected the warm lights in the room, but still seemed like A mirror without reflection, "If you don't do anything, his property in Hong Kong will be wiped out."

"Have you decided to fully move to Beijing?"

"I won't leave a cent to Hobbs for the ones on the white road. As for the ones on the underworld, if they are useless, I can wait for them to slowly decline."

During the six years when Charles Hobbs was in charge of the Shen family on an outlying island, what he did the most was to install cronies in it and deeply tie up the two businesses, so that even if Shen Yun came back, cooperation would be the only way she had to do it. .

The method Shen Yun adopted was industrial transfer.She began to sell the property through selling and transferring, and then continued to purchase new properties in Beijing --- a place where Charles Hobbs could not intervene. It is true that she hurt the enemy one thousand and self-destroyed eight hundred, but Shen Yun has the confidence After making a comeback in Beijing, Charles Hobbs had absolutely no way of blackmailing her.

In a sense, this road is also her father's legacy. His family was at its peak during his lifetime, but it never expanded outwards. Instead, it kept moving closer to the mainstream, but it didn't seem like he wanted to clean up the whitewashing. Shen Yun vaguely Yue felt that what his father wanted to take was not the traditional path from businessman to white man, but to learn from Zhao'an, which was not uncommon in modern times: If your power is used by the country, it is a good thing to grow stronger.

"That's good." Huo Qiyu nodded, "The next time we meet, we should be in Beijing."

"Are you going to call back?"

"It doesn't count. The vice president asked me to submit my resignation after returning to China, and then go to work in Zhongjin." He smiled slightly, "It's more suitable for me there."

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the West imposed a complete blockade on Red China. In order to obtain some special materials, Sino-Zimbabha Enterprises took on the responsibility of communicating between Hong Kong and the mainland.In order to ensure the smooth progress of the transportation, Zhongjin was quite involved with the underworld forces on Hong Kong Island, which is why her father first got involved with the central government.Although Zhongjin was reorganized after the re-opening, the accumulated habits of many years cannot be changed overnight.

Thinking of Huo Qiyu's special background, this place is really suitable for him.

"Congratulations." She clinked glasses with Huo Qiyu again, "See you in Beijing."

"See you in Beijing." Huo Qiyu drank the red wine in one gulp. He suddenly thought of something and asked, "What about Joe?"

"What do you mean?"

"He can no longer stay in New York." Huo Qiyu said, "Charles Hobbs is the director of the American Academy of Drama. He may not dare to do anything when you are in New York these days, but after you leave, there is no guarantee that he will come back one day. He It’s best to go to Beijing as soon as possible, he’s safest staying by your side.”

"Then help me persuade him. If it's not necessary, I still don't want him to know about my father."

When mentioning her father, Shen Yun's expression darkened slightly, the beauty that was originally alienated and indifferent, all had a tinge of fragility because of this small change.

She was only 17 when she witnessed her father's death.He had heard the cause of his death, was shot in the heart by a dum bullet, and died a few hours later.

He saw the man who was hit by a dum bomb later, and he knew how painful it was to die, and his heart couldn't help but constrict when he thought of it: the gentle and handsome man he remembered, the man he respected so much- -----How could he die like this?

"I won't." He said, and couldn't help holding Shen Yun's twisted hands, "I will protect you."

Shen Yun lowered her head and was taken aback for a moment. Then he realized something was wrong, and quickly withdrew his hand: "I'm sorry."

Shen Yun suddenly smiled.

She is definitely not the kind of beauty who is not aware of her beauty and wears away her appearance for nothing, but in her eyes, beauty has never been her capital.She always maintains a cold and silent expression, but when she laughs, the beauty of inverting all living beings is really revealed:

"My teacher told me that when you came to my house as a guest, my father once said: 'If Lizze likes him, he will be the best son-in-law I can think of'."

"You mean..." Huo Qiyu's voice trembled slightly.

"I've thought about your proposal last time. It's a very good relationship for us." Shen Yun put down her wine glass, raised the corners of her lips slightly, and said:

"Let's marry."

"Second brother!"

It was already twelve o'clock in the evening when Huo Qiyu returned home, and Shen Qiao, who had always had an extremely regular schedule, was still in the living room.

"Why aren't you sleeping?" Huo Qiyu was in a great mood today, and stretched out his hand to call people over.

Shen Qiao dawdled and wanted to lean over, but her face hesitated to speak, Huo Qiyu pinched his face: "What's wrong?"

Shen Qiao seemed to have finally made up her mind, and looked up into Huo Qiyu's eyes: "Second brother, can you do me a favor?"

"What are you busy with?"

"Elope for me."
