A week passed in a blink of an eye.

The "On the Road" program team is well versed in the trick of whetting the audience's appetite. The new episode of the program switched perspectives and explained in detail the rare symptoms and manifestations of teenagers.

Duan Ming specifically contacted the program team to ask about it. The rest of the film is still being edited and produced. It is estimated that it will take at least two or three episodes to reveal the mystery and enter the popular science stage.

"We also told Mr. Huo that there is no Mr. Liang in the show, so don't watch it specially."

The housekeeper rarely found an opportunity, so he called to report: "Mr. Liang's play is still on the air, and Mr. Huo has not finished his questions, so he probably doesn't have time to pay too much attention."

Duan Ming pressed his forehead, held the phone between his hands, and wrote down a few notes in his notebook: "Thanks for your hard work."

The butler kept saying that he didn't dare, hesitated for a while, and still couldn't help asking in a low voice: "It was really Mr. Liang..."

The agent suddenly called a week ago and asked them to help out.When the housekeeper heard the captain of the bodyguard say that it didn't rain that day, he already had a premonition in his heart, and immediately guessed what was going on.

Both of them were tacit, they didn't make the matter clear, but they had already guessed all kinds of things.

The butler didn't dare to ask in detail these days, and the more he thought about it, the heavier his heart became, and he finally couldn't hold it back.

Duan Ming stopped hiding from him, and sighed: "Yes."

Even though he was already prepared, the butler still followed closely: "How old was Mr. Liang then?"

I was still a half-grown child, desperate, desperate to save my friend, in the end I didn't even dare to stay, and ran away without a shadow with my belongings.

Those gossip accounts were keen to pick up Liang Xiao's past, Huo Lan didn't allow them to hide it, the housekeeper sent it to the study twice, and also read it more or less.

Liang Xiao didn't even have a home at that time.

The housekeeper doesn't know the consequences of omega's hard-handling of division, but he has also read Liang Xiao's medical examination reports over the years, and the old problems from that year are still too severe to be ignored.

Going back ten years, it is almost impossible to imagine how Xiao Liang Xiao, who had just completed his division and was full of injuries, survived alone in the imperial capital.

Duan Ming thought about these things when he first learned the truth, but Liang Xiao kept his mouth tight and refused to reveal a word about these things, and he still hasn't been able to ask them.

"It's because of this." Duan Ming whispered, "Liang Xiao wants to hide it from Mr. Huo as much as possible... At least there is a buffer."

"Yes." The housekeeper was in a dilemma, and sighed for a long time, "It's just difficult for Mr. Liang."

The housekeeper could almost imagine how wronged Liang Xiao was for hiding these things: "We can't make it through for the time being, please help us express condolences to Mr. Liang."

Duan Ming turned his head and glanced at Mr. Liang who was walking with Yu You: "...OK."

The more the housekeeper thought about it, the more worried he became: "How is Mr. Liang these days?"

Duan Ming: "It's okay."

"It is thanks to Mr. Liang himself that he has been able to come to the present all these years."

The housekeeper was full of emotion: "Speaking of it, the Huo family is the one who repays the favor...Mr. Liang is really not easy."

Half an hour will be up soon, Liang Xiao lost his life very hard, and was about to sigh deeply when Duan Ming firmly covered his mouth: "Yes."

The housekeeper couldn't help being concerned: "How is Mr. Liang doing now? Is there anything we can take care of?"

Duan Ming let go of his hands, looked at Liang Xiao who was stuck on the verge of death by the time limit of the youth anti-addiction, rubbed his temples and took a deep breath.

Liang Xiao lost his ideals, and drifted to the bedside with the game console in his arms, and lay down on the bed.

Duan Ming: "...Yes."

The housekeeper didn't expect that there was really something that could help, and he was almost surprised: "What?"

When Duan Ming was working as a manager, he had some ambitions anyway, and had some predictions about the content of his future work, but he never thought that he would get to where he is today.

Duan Ming: "Boss Huo...that game console that I bought for him."

The butler was stunned for a moment: "Huh?"

Duan Ming sighed: "What's the password for the anti-addiction setting?"

The housekeeper tried his best to obtain the anti-addiction code from Mr. Huo.

"Mr. Liang said, in fact, there are answers to the questions on the back..."

The housekeeper made a secret move, sent the password to the broker, and put down the coffee reminder: "Don't you want to see it?"

Huo Lan frowned, and looked up at the housekeeper.

Butler: "...you don't want to read it."

"Mr. Liang came up with the question himself." Huo Lan was very dissatisfied with his attitude, and said in a low voice, "I should deal with it wholeheartedly, and I shouldn't be opportunistic."

The butler thought that you were too dedicated, sighed, and without much persuasion, moved away a stack of used straw paper.

No matter how good Huo Lan's grades were back then, he has graduated for many years. What he learned back then is not useful for many years, so it is inevitable that he is a lot unfamiliar.

If it didn't happen to catch up with the susceptible period, it might be more difficult to make up.

The butler helped him tidy up the table and added new walnuts to the drawer: "There is a little less work during this period, do you want to go see Mr. Liang?"

Huo Lan's eyes moved, and he was silent for a while: "No."

The butler was puzzled: "Why?"

Huo Lan remained silent for a while, pressed his forehead, closed his eyes and rested, put down his pen

Huo Lan didn't touch the walnuts, took an inhibitor and unpacked it, slightly suppressed the pheromone agitation, and closed his eyes again.

"Are you afraid that you can't help it and delay Mr. Liang's work?"

The butler guessed, and carefully prepared medicine for him that could slightly reduce the side effects, and put it on the table with warm water: "Actually—"

"It's just pheromone." Huo Lan said quietly, "I can bear it."

The butler was stunned for a moment, thinking about the situation of these years, he felt sad: "Yes."

The housekeeper tried his best to hide it from him these days, but he couldn't help but think of Liang Xiao, sighed softly, and said in a low voice, "Mr. Liang... can bear it too."

Huo Lan frowned and opened his eyes: "He shouldn't bear it."

The butler was startled.

"If Mr. Liang feels unwell, please let me know immediately."

Huo Lan said in a deep voice, "If his pheromone fluctuates, I will go over immediately."

Huo Lan's expression turned cold: "If anyone keeps hiding the truth, there is no need to continue."

The butler quickly responded: "Yes, I will tell them."

The filming of the crew these days is high-intensity and dangerous. Mr. Liang suffered a lot of minor injuries sporadically, and the team didn't dare to hide them, and reported them all over the place.

Only a while ago, Liang Xiao almost had an accident while filming. With his experience, he was able to save the day, and his chest was blacked out when he hit a tree.The person in charge thought that the inspection results were fine, so he didn't report it.

The artist almost had an accident, and Huo Lan finally found out about it until the crew sent a private letter of apology to Xingguan according to the rules.

"It will definitely not happen in the future."

The housekeeper assured: "I have made it clear to them that everything must be reported, and no omissions are allowed subjectively and objectively."

The housekeeper carefully looked at Huo Lan's expression, saw that his expression was a little slow, and hesitated for a while: "Don't you just go to see Mr. Liang? Mr. Liang's filming is also very dangerous recently—"

Huo Lan shook his head: "I'm going, it's easier to distract him."

The housekeeper didn't expect this, he was stunned for a moment, thought carefully for a while: "Yes."

It’s okay to shoot some ordinary plots, and high-risk plots can’t be distracted at all. You must concentrate on it in order to respond in time when there are changes.

Mr. Liang was easily disturbed by Mr. Huo when he was reciting his lines. When the two of them are together, no matter how hard they try to concentrate, they will inevitably miss each other.

During the filming of that scene, if Liang Xiao lost his concentration, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The butler was convinced and nodded: "You still know Mr. Liang."

"Besides." Huo Lan closed his eyes and pressed his eyebrows firmly, "I can't help it."

The butler was startled.

Huo Lan didn't want to think about the mood when he saw the report, his shoulders and back were tense for a while, and he forced himself to relax little by little.

"This is the path Mr. Liang chose himself."

Huo Lan's voice was very low, as if speaking to himself: "He wants to move forward...I can't stop him."

The housekeeper understood, and his heart suddenly felt sour.

"You don't want Mr. Liang to suffer, do you?"

The butler helped him put a cube of sugar into the coffee, stirred it slowly, and said softly, "You feel sorry for Mr. Liang. Even if Mr. Liang is doing what he wants to do and gets injured accidentally, you will inevitably feel sorry for him."

Huo Lan couldn't say these things by himself, so when he heard the butler who was respected by his elders ask in a low voice, he closed his eyes and let out a low "hmm".

The butler put down the coffee spoon: "But you also know in your heart...Mr. Liang wants to do it."

"I know." Huo Lan used this to remind himself repeatedly these days, trying his best to suppress his temper, and didn't want to think about it, "What's the plan for tomorrow?"

"daily work."

The housekeeper hesitated for a moment: "There is a video conference at two o'clock in the afternoon, and we invite you over at five o'clock... to discuss the reduction of negative profit companies and a thorough investigation of internal stock price short selling."

Huo Lan nodded, drank a few sips of coffee, took the computer to prepare for work, but was carefully stopped by the housekeeper: "Mr. Huo."

Huo Lan looked up at him.

"You can think clearly." The butler hesitated for a while, then asked him softly, "Mr. Liang wants to do it, doesn't he?"

Huo Lan looked at him, frowned, and didn't answer immediately.

The housekeeper didn't ask any more questions. He packed his things for him, turned on the work light, and walked out of the study room quickly.

The next day, the person who came to pick him up from the separated family arrived at Huo's house on time.

"See that old man who looks like a man?"

The captain of the bodyguard led the new bodyguards to identify him, hid in the dark, and whispered: "They were responsible for taking care of Mr. Huo's family back then. His name is Huo Cangxin, and he hasn't done anything good."

A group of bodyguards stood and nodded, murderous.

The captain of the bodyguard was very angry at being separated recently, not in a good mood: "Many things these days are caused by him behind the scenes."

The bodyguards were murderous, eager to draw their batons.

"..." The captain of the bodyguard stopped the baton back in time: "I don't need it today."

"They really have no choice but to invite Mr. Huo over there. Mr. Huo gave them one last chance and agreed."

The captain of the bodyguard: "See you later, no matter what method you use, you can't let them in again."

A group of bodyguards eagerly put away their batons and stood at attention.

The captain of the bodyguard has been in charge of the inner circle for a long time, and he has not enjoyed this kind of unanimous treatment for a long time. He is majestic: "Whatever the enemy wants, we will not give it to him. Whatever the enemy wants to do, we will stop him..."

Before the third sentence could be concluded, the butler had already opened the door and walked in quickly, covered his mouth and dragged people out in a hurry.

After solving Long Tao's confidant's troubles, Huo Lan gradually freed up his hands and began to formally deal with the separation of the family.

These years of sitting and eating, the branch family has become accustomed to easily filling their own pockets with money from the Huo family.At present, the capital flow has been cut repeatedly, and several branch families have sensed the crisis, so they have today's invitation to bow their heads and admit their mistakes or a grand banquet.

The butler was worried that it would be unsafe, so he deliberately dragged the captain of the bodyguard.

"The person who takes you, no matter what time, must not let Mr. Huo be alone."

The housekeeper emphasized to him in a low voice: "You can't let Mr. Huo out of sight, you can't let Mr. Huo fall into the trap of separating the family, and you can't let Mr. Huo hear you talking."

The first few bodyguard captains could understand it, and they also became nervous, and nodded cautiously as if they were facing an enemy: "Why can't President Huo hear me?"

Butler: "Because Mr. Huo doesn't want to hear you talking."

Bodyguard captain: "?"

The butler patted him, gave him a mask, and got out of the car with the people in front.

It was rare for Huo Cangxin to go back to Huo's house, and he was very emotional, and had already chatted with Huo Lan all the way.

In terms of seniority, he should be Huo Lan's uncle, but it's just a few floors away. In reality, the relationship is already remote, and it takes two generations to meet him.

"It's probably fate." Huo Cangxin led him in, and smiled, "I was the one who led you out of Huo's house back then."

Huo Cangxin sighed softly, and looked kindly: "You were so young back then, and you refused to turn back even one step. Your father thought you were ruthless, but he didn't know that you made my hands white at that time."

Huo Lan lowered her eyes: "Thank you."

"It should be, it's also a family." Huo Cangxin smiled, "Let's..."

"Reminiscing about the past can be postponed."

Huo Lan glanced at the situation in the room, interrupted in a low voice, and asked the housekeeper to take people outside the door: "Everyone has something to say, you might as well speak it out."

Huo Cangxin's face changed without a trace, and he put on a smile again: "Okay, come and sit."

The branch family put on a family banquet, but all the people who came were Uncle Huo Lan or even senior elders.Huo Lan didn't give in to him, went straight to the main seat, and sat down on the chair.

The gray-haired old man next to him couldn't help frowning, and began to scold him: "The people present are all your elders, and they all took care of you back then. You—"

Huo Lan raised his eyes, his eyes were calm and cold.

The old man was captured by his aura, and he was stuck in the words of the lesson, and shut his mouth in fear.

Many branch families have not dealt with the main family for many years. Although they knew that the Huo family was almost overthrown at one time, their concept of the main family was almost the same as the careless president and the sick president's wife back then. The lonely and weak gloomy boy back then.

The stance of the family banquet this time is to use seniority to gain the upper hand first, and step by step to suppress Huo Lan to resume financial support for the branch family.

Huo Lan didn't show up when he entered the door, but now he was seated in the main seat, and the cold edge around him no longer restrained, frightening the few people who were ready to make trouble, they didn't dare to speak again for a while.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding." Huo Cangxin hurriedly smiled to smooth things over, "Even if the seniority is there, what's wrong with the Patriarch taking the first place? It would be boring to bring up the old score again..."

Huo Lan said softly, "You can turn it over."

Huo Cangxin paused with a smile on his face, but was speechless.

"Since we have to turn over, there are many things to turn over."

Huo Lan: "When the Huo family was in critical condition, the master asked everyone for help and signed an agreement."

Huo Cangxin didn't expect him to mention this when he came up, his expression changed a few times, he shut his mouth completely, sat down in silence and sat back.

"One is prosperous, and one is lost."

Huo Lan's voice was flat and cold, and he repeated word by word: "Everyone has cash savings, channels, loan mortgages, and capital turnover in their hands. They can coordinate the supply to the owner, and they will be returned ten times in the future."

His tone was calm, but what he said made many people tremble slightly, and they lowered their heads with guilt.

Huo Lan glanced around, but did not continue.

Back then, Huo's every step might be doomed, so he took his father's seal and waited in the office alone for ten days.

Ten days later, three reminders urging the owner to pay the arrears and seventeen applications for equity division came.

He signed each one with his own hand.

Huo Lan had no intention of pursuing the old accounts, and said in a calm tone, "In principle, the equity division had already been completed at that time."

A family member in the corner changed his face, and said anxiously: "Patriarch, we—"

"In recent years, Huo's family has been burdened with reeds and has no time to take care of the various branches. It has indeed caused you a lot of grievances."

Huo Lan: "Now it's time to make a move. The internal development of the branch family has stagnated in recent years. There are long-term negative profits, poor management, and short-selling companies that are full of capital flow. They will help each other, and the main family is willing to help deal with it."

These words could not be understood more clearly, the complexions of the several branch families were completely ashamed, and they looked at Huo Lan, who turned against the customer and came to liquidate, the aura that had finally gathered had dissipated most of it.

Huo Cangxin glanced back and forth, gritted his teeth and broke his wrist, and stood up first: "This is a good thing, we are willing to cooperate."

A family member beside him raised his head in astonishment: "Before you——"

"These moths should have been dealt with a long time ago." Huo Cangxin said in a deep voice, "I also said before that there are no outstanding children in the past few generations of the branch family, so it is a last resort to let the main family do the work for you."

Huo Cangxin turned around and looked at Huo Lan: "The circumstances of these family divisions are different, and you may not know all of them... Calling them today is also to let them explain to you."

Huo Lan raised his eyes, his voice indifferent.

Huo Cangxin gritted his teeth and resolutely said, "We... will be the first ones."

……

The hall door was tightly shut for three hours.

It began to rain lightly in the evening, and the sky was completely dark at the moment, and the rain still didn't stop, but it was getting bigger and bigger.

When the door was opened again, some people had already started to come out with staggering faces and disastrous faces. They didn't even bother to open their umbrellas, and walked out in the rain without saying a word.

"Didn't they come to plead with Mr. Huo?"

The bodyguard captain wore a mask and lowered his voice cautiously: "Why are they all in a trance..."

"They came to intercede with Mr. Huo, and Mr. Huo also came to settle accounts with them."

The steward no longer expected him to think clearly, and sighed: "Why don't you bring your people here, and decorate them with a beautiful scenery along the way?"

Already had no expectations for these people, Huo Lan arranged for them to make preparations when the family sent the invitation over.

The family's mighty bodyguard team guarded outside, and Huo Lan's icy aura, tempered by life and death several times in the shopping mall, was not something that this group of pampered families could handle.

"It's nothing more than going through the motions and explaining things thoroughly."

The butler glanced at the dejected old man who was walking outside, and asked someone to move out of the way, and said in a low voice with disdain, "The Huo family has been paying for these moths, and now they won't pay. Of course they don't want to, but they don't have the cards to follow." Let's talk about Mr. Huo."

The captain of the bodyguard understood this time, and couldn't help grinding his teeth: "It deserves it."

"They deserve it." The butler signaled him to cheer up, "We should also be careful."

At this point, Huo Lan has not left the branch family any escape route, it can be regarded as completely tearing away that layer of camouflage.

If there is any hole card, it will probably be used by this time.

Neither of the two dared to be careless, they stared round and watched outside, until the last family member also went out sadly, and only Huo Cangxin and Huo Lan were left in the room.

Huo Cangxin's complexion was not good-looking at all. He rubbed his forehead and smiled wryly, "You really... have grown so much compared to before."

Huo Lan put away a stack of contracts and agreements, and handed them to the housekeeper who entered the door. His eyes were calm: "One must improve."

"When you came to our house, you were only five years old. You only knew that you were locked in your room by yourself, and refused to go out no matter who called you. You didn't come down for a bite of food for three days."

Huo Cangxin sighed, and sighed with emotion in a low voice: "It's been a while..."

Huo Lan didn't want to hear this, his eyes showed some coldness, and he didn't make a sound.

The housekeeper couldn't take it anymore: "A five-year-old child shut himself in the room for three days and didn't go out. Are you so relieved that no one persuaded him or sent him the food?"

Huo Cangxin's expression froze, he opened his mouth, and said awkwardly, "We thought—"

"Don't say it."

Huo Lan interrupted quietly: "Is there anything else?"

"Yes." Huo Cangxin rushed to answer, "There was a trending search two days ago...do you still remember about your little star?"

Huo Lan frowned, his eyes were cold, and his eyes fell on him.

"You probably don't believe it. We were shocked when we found out about this."

Huo Cangxin sighed: "I also hesitated whether to tell you or not, but after thinking about it, even if you alienate us because of this, it's for your own good..."

Huo Lang said coldly: "You guys took out the note?"

"You know?" Huo Cangxin was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes...you come with me."

He didn't pay attention to the coldness in Huo Lan's eyes, he just thought that he was still unhappy because of the family separation incident just now, so he led Huo Lan for a few steps, turned out the door and entered a long corridor.

The promenade is half-open, and the rainy night breeze blows freshly, which is particularly refreshing.

Huo Cangxin took a deep breath, his energy improved a lot, and he pulled himself together: "We only found out some time ago that the starlet you liked was the liar who almost killed you in Jiangnan."

Huo Lan said in a deep voice, "How did you find out?"

"We actually figured out his identity back then."

Huo Cangxin sneered: "A wild boy raised in a den of liars dares to pretend to be you and ask our people to help you buy things."

"He learned your handwriting very well, and our people were fooled a few times. Later, I happened to see him writing a note, so I figured out what was going on."

Huo Cangxin was always worried about Huo Lan's retaliation for what happened back then, so he made up his mind to file a complaint first and show his credit to him in advance: "How can this kind of person stay by your side? We asked someone to teach him a lesson. Let him go at a young age, but he is still stubborn and refuses to leave..."

Huo Lan's chest seemed to have been hit by a heavy hammer, and there was almost a bloody smell in his throat.

The captain of the bodyguard was told by the housekeeper to follow him every step of the way, he was startled, and hurriedly supported him: "Mr. Huo."

Huo Lan stood quietly for a while with downcast eyes, his chest rose and fell a few times, and he regained his footing: "What about after that?"

"We figured out a way to disclose his whereabouts to his den of liars, which really scared him away."

Huo Cangxin sighed: "It's a pity that we were negligent... He probably didn't want to be reconciled, and secretly used the inducer before he escaped."

"You probably don't remember? At that time, you were still young, and it wasn't long before you successfully differentiated. You couldn't bear the pheromone impact of the omega, and passed out."

Huo Cangxin: "If we hadn't happened to visit the next morning, maybe you would have died."

Huo Lan could hardly continue to understand what he meant, closed his eyes for a while, and said in a low voice, "Did he use an inducer?"

"Didn't many people want to know what happened to his pheromone outbreak sequelae? In fact, that's what happened. We were concerned about your face, so we didn't say it." Huo Cangxin nodded: "I probably ran away because you passed out. ...you have suffered on your own, and it almost killed you as well."

"I know this is not easy to accept." Huo Cangxin sighed, "You like him a lot, right? No one knows that looking at such a clean person now, it turned out to be like this in the past."

"I heard that you are looking for him, and we have been worried about you. If you don't know, how can you know why he came back?"

Huo Cangxin intentionally showed his affection to him, and patiently moved closer: "You two are naturally matched in pheromones, and he knows your hobbies when you were young, so it's easy for you to fall in love with him... You have never liked anyone before, let him bewitch you No, it's not your fault."

The vision in front of him was distorted and turned black, Huo Lan felt sick and took half a step back.

The captain of the bodyguard was also terrified when he heard that, no matter what he didn't believe that Mr. Liang would be such a person, he hurriedly supported him: "Mr. Huo, I won't..."

Huo Lan pushed him away, closed his eyes and stood firm, and found his own voice: "He—"

The rain outside the promenade is getting heavier.

The rainy night is cold, the wind blows up mist, and the refreshing chill penetrates into the body.

The housekeeper took such a slow step, his heart almost jumped out of the fright, and hurried to catch up: "Mr. Huo!"

The butler took every precaution, never expected that something would go wrong here, and he almost vomited blood: "Don't worry, Mr. Liang is fine. Mr. Liang is filming on the set. If you want to see him, let's go now—"

Huo Lan wanted to touch the rain curtain, but when he was hit by the cold rain, he woke up suddenly, and suddenly withdrew his hand: "No."

The butler asked someone to take Huo Cangxin away, and carefully helped him to sit down: "Okay, don't go, don't worry."

Huo Lan's whole body was piercingly cold, his chest and brain were in severe pain and almost burst, and there was a rumble and silence in his ears.

Huo Lan's chest rose and fell, and his eyes fell: "It's not rain."

"No...not." The butler closed his eyes, "Mr. Liang wants to do it, you remember, don't you? Mr. Liang wants to..."

Huo Lan stood up.

The butler didn't dare to speak anymore, and motioned to the captain of the bodyguard to ask someone to bring the car over.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the body was drenched after a few steps.The housekeeper didn't dare to let go, and helped Huo Lan to walk into the car.

Huo Lan followed his strength and walked a few steps, stopped, and raised his hand to catch some of the falling rain.

Huo Lan didn't move any more, watching the puddles that had just accumulated leaking out little by little along the gap between his fingers, he squeezed his drenched palm empty.

Huo Lan lowered his eyes and asked softly, "Why didn't you find out?"
