121: C121 Pier Farewell

C121 Pier Farewell

City B...

The sky was overcast. Dark clouds covered the sky in the distance, as if it was going to rain soon. Soong Shiyan and the butler stood on the dock while Huo Chenglieh, Chiang Shuru and Huo Mingyang stood on the side.

"Grandfather, are you sure you want to leave? "You are so old, and your journey is so long. I am worried that your body won't be able to take it!" Soong Shiyan looked at the old man with a pained expression.

That day, Mingshen had died in a car accident. Although the old man looked calm, he did receive a huge blow. After hurriedly burning the body of the lentinus edodes, the old tutor decided to temporarily leave this sorrowful place and go out to relax. He said that he was going to scatter the bones of the mushrooms into the sea, so he decided to take a cruise. As for the matter of Mingshen dying in a car accident, the old man had already sent people to seal off the news and also ordered the servants of Huo Family to not spread it. As a result, the media still did not know about it, so they all thought that Mingshen had gone to the UK to manage Huo Family's overseas businesses. Otherwise, these few days, his life in the Huo Family would not be a peaceful one.

The old man took the casket from the steward and said sorrowfully to Soong Shiyan: "You should also know that Mingshen has lived for more than twenty years with a closed mouth and has been living in Huo Family and English manors. He rarely goes out to check. "I'll use this opportunity to bring him around and take a look. This will make up for the regret in my heart."

Hearing that, Soong Shiyan choked with sobs, "Then … Grandfather, you have to take care of your body too. "

The old man looked at Soong Shiyan and nodded his head in gratification. He then walked over to her side and said softly, "Girl, go to A City now, I won't stop you. "But I hope that you will keep an eye on Chiang Shuru and her son for me while I'm away. Don't let them have the chance to take advantage of me."

Soong Shiyan nodded with a serious expression.

"Also, you asked me what was the meaning of the key Mingshen left here. When you return to the Huo Family, ask the butler to bring you to the basement of Mingshen's villa, you'll know. " The old man patted Soong Shiyan's hand and said.

When Chiang Shuru saw the old man and Soong Shiyan standing at the side and discussing something in a low voice, she signaled to Huo Chenglieh, who was beside her. Seeing that, Huo Chenglieh hurriedly walked forward, pretending that he did not notice, and pushed Soong Shiyan away. He looked at the old man with grey hair at his temples and said with some reluctance, "Dad, you're so old, why do you have to go through all this suffering? If Mingshen had known in the afterlife, he would definitely protect you and live for a hundred years! "

The old tutor looked at his good-for-nothing son, a trace of helplessness appearing in his eyes. He turned his head around coldly and said to the butler beside him: "Butler, in the days that I'm not in Huo Family, you must open your eyes wide and watch out for me. Don't let the thieves in our house empty Huo Family for me."

"Yes, Old Master!" The butler nodded.

Chiang Shuru, who was standing at the side, couldn't help but have an unsightly expression on her face when she heard this. However, when she saw that the old tutor was still here, she suppressed the anger in her heart and didn't flare up.

"Alright, it's getting late, you can leave now!" Saying that, the old man carried Huo Mingshen's casket and under the escort of a few bodyguards, they slowly boarded the cruise ship.

"Grandfather, you have to take care of your body!" Soong Shiyan looked at the old man on the deck and waved at him as she spoke loudly.

Hearing this, a hint of a smile surfaced on the old man's face. He looked at Soong Shiyan on the dock and waved his hand at her with a smile.

With a loud whistle, the cruise ship slowly pulled away from the harbor.

A figure walked out of the room and onto the deck, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the old tutor.

"I have already sent someone to send a considerable amount of compensation to his family. His ashes are now in the hands of his family. This matter can be considered to have passed just like that. " The old man looked at the distant sky and said slowly.

"Yes." The man looked at the harbor that was getting further and further away and answered absent-mindedly.

"Still, Grandpa was puzzled. Mingshen, how did you know that your father and Huo Mingyang would do you harm?" The old man retracted his gaze and looked at Huo Mingshen, who was beside him, and asked curiously.

"I was only guessing. So, just in case, he got off the car and took a taxi to the airport. "I didn't expect that the car I was sitting in would have been tampered with. It was on the way to the airport and an accident happened." Huo Mingshen said lightly.

"You clearly recovered your consciousness last time, but you asked me to hide it from that girl Jing Sung. At that time, in my heart, I already felt some guilt towards her. I didn't expect you to let me help you lie so much this time. According to the bodyguards, when I entered the operating room, Jing Sung was crying her heart out in the morgue. In the future, if she finds out that you're still alive, I think she won't forgive you so easily! " The old man looked at Huo Mingshen beside him and said helplessly.

Hearing that, Huo Mingshen's expression wavered a little. He clenched his hands tightly, but he still remained silent.

"But it's good for you. As long as Jing Sung is the successor of Huo Family, Chiang Shuru and her son wouldn't have the mood to deal with you. Moreover, the current you, is already a 'dead man'. While Jing Sung is guarding the Huo Family for you, stay in England peacefully and properly learn how to manage the businesses in the Huo Family. Grandfather will be by your side and teach you hands-on until you are able to resolve the difficulties in the market by yourself. " The old man patted Huo Mingshen on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Huo Mingshen nodded and said with determination, "I will work hard to learn this knowledge. I won't let your hard work and effort fall into the hands of Chiang Shuru and her son." I will become a powerful person and protect her!

When the old man saw the determination on Huo Mingshen's face, he smiled in relief. He actually had a trace of selfishness in his heart.

This girl, Jing Sung, was not like an ordinary woman, someone who could bend and plead with others. Her personality was somewhat unyielding, and she was unable to endure any sort of betrayal. Now, Mingshen had lied to her, causing her to live in endless pain and self-blame. In the future, Jing Sung would have a hard time forgiving Mingshen. In fact, she wouldn't forgive Mingshen for the rest of her life. This way, he naturally didn't have to worry about Mingshen and Jing Sung being together anymore. Even though Jing Sung was a pretty good girl, he was indeed very satisfied with her. However, he wanted Mingshen to be with Noble Miss from a big family. Because, only then, Mingshen could not only keep his position as the Patriarch steadily, but also let Huo Family prosper forever.

"Mingshen, will you regret your decision?" The old man suddenly asked.

"No regrets." Huo Mingshen said firmly. Because, only in this way could he have the ability to protect her!

"If that's the case, then it can't be any better!" Seeing Huo Mingshen's reaction, the old man smiled in satisfaction.1
