C279 Exogenous Disease
The company is delayed, Huo Mingyang has to stay in the company overtime. By the time he got home, it was already around nine o'clock. The moment he entered the living room, he saw Huo Chenglieh and Lih Jinhsing happily chatting on the sofa. Even the old man sat there red-faced, laughing heartily at Lih Jinhsing's joke.
Seeing Huo Mingyang's return, Lih Jinhsing raised his head and looked at him. He said expressionlessly, "You're back!"
Hearing this, Huo Chenglieh, whose mind had been preoccupied with Lih Jinhsing, slowly raised his head. He looked at Huo Mingyang. "Mingyang is back — we've already had dinner. If you have anything you want to eat, just tell the servants to get it ready for you."
Finishing his words, Huo Chenglieh smiled and told Lih Jinhsing everything he had seen and heard before. It seemed to be a scene of father and son getting along harmoniously.
Seeing this, Huo Mingyang couldn't help but feel slightly resentful in his heart. Ever since Lih Jinhsing entered the Huo Family, Huo Chenglieh rarely went to work at the company. Every day, he either accompanied Lih Jinhsing around to play or stayed home to chat and play chess with Lih Jinhsing. Even the old man, who had always been dissatisfied with Huo Chenglieh, didn't say that he was in the wrong this time. Instead, he silently approved of his actions.
However, although they were both Huo Chenglieh's sons, Huo Chenglieh rarely cared so much about him, not to mention not going to work for him. As for the old man, he had lived in the Huo Family for so many years and had not given him any face at all. This caused Huo Mingyang's heart to be filled with resentment.
"Alright, I understand." Huo Mingyang squeezed out a smile and said to Huo Chenglieh.
"Alright, then you should head back earlier!" Huo Chenglieh glanced at Huo Mingyang while he was busy, and said, "Your mom is not feeling well today, and is still lying on the bed. I don't know if she's sleeping — you should go back first and check on her condition. If she's really not feeling well, call the doctor over."
Huo Mingyang was wondering why his mother wasn't here. Hearing Huo Chenglieh's words, he finally understood that Chiang Shuru was actually sick.
As the saying goes, a husband and wife must be merciful for a day. Chiang Shuru was sick, so Huo Chenglieh should stay by her side. Needless to say taking care of her while pouring tea, just accompanying her would make people's hearts warm up. However, he was currently sitting in the living room, accompanying his son, who had been wandering around for so many years, sharing his heavenly happiness. He had completely forgotten about Chiang Shuru.
Seeing this, Huo Mingyang was even more dissatisfied in his heart. However, he still smiled and said to Huo Chenglieh, "Since that's the case, I'll go check on mother first."
"Yes." Huo Chenglieh replied lazily and continued chatting with Lih Jinhsing.
Seeing Huo Chenglieh's reaction, Huo Mingyang gritted his teeth and finally left the living room unwillingly, walking towards the villa that they were staying in.
… ….
Chiang Shuru lay on the bed. Her lips were dry and cracked, and her face was pale. She looked weak and listless.
Seeing that Huo Mingyang had returned home, Chiang Shuru struggled to sit up. She looked at Huo Mingyang and wanted to say something, but tears flowed uncontrollably. It looked like she had become a bit weaker.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Weren't you all right when I left this morning? "Why is he suddenly sick?" Although Huo Mingyang was sometimes a bit annoyed by Chiang Shuru, she was his mother after all, so he still cared about her.
"I-I got sick from your dad's anger!" Chiang Shuru said indignantly as she reached out her hand to wipe her tears.
"What's going on? Mom, even if dad likes that Lih Jinhsing, you don't have to be so angry about it! " Huo Mingyang sighed and said somewhat helplessly.
"You don't know, your dad, he …" Chiang Shuru was so angry that she couldn't finish her sentence.
"What happened to my dad?" Seeing Chiang Shuru's expression, Huo Mingyang had a bad premonition.
"I don't know what kind of bewitching soup Lih Jinhsing gave your father. Today, I heard from your father's tone, he seems to be planning to give his share of Huo Family to Lih Jinhsing," Chiang Shuru said extremely angrily. "At the beginning, I already felt that Lih Jinhsing wasn't a good person, but now, it seems that it's true!"
For the sake of her wealth of Huo Family, she shamelessly entered the Huo Family. She had never received an account for Huo Family in her entire life, and she even suffered under the cold eyes of the old man for so many years. Even though the Old Master had chosen Jing Sung as the successor of Huo Family, even though she was angry, she still endured — after all, Huo Chenglieh was still on her side. Even if they couldn't get the property of Huo Family and could get Huo Chenglieh's share, they wouldn't need to worry about food and clothing in this life, next life, and next life.
However, now, Lih Jinhsing had suddenly appeared, causing Huo Chenglieh to be completely enchanted. Now, Huo Chenglieh even said that he would leave his shares to Lih Jinhsing, how could she accept that?
Hearing this, Huo Mingyang's expression turned ugly to the extreme. All these years, he had been working diligently in the Huo's. It was all just to get the shares in Huo Chenglieh's hands, gain a foothold in Huo's, and stop being looked down upon and looked down upon! But now, telling him that wanting to obtain the shares in Huo Chenglieh's hands was simply a dream! How could he swallow his anger?
"Mom, then did my dad say anything else? What is he going to leave for me? " Huo Mingyang asked, unwilling to give up.
"I don't know. Your father only talked about the shares and didn't talk about anything else — — Now, ever since Lih Jinhsing entered the Huo Family, I can't decide what plans your father has in mind." Chiang Shuru sighed and said quietly, "I hate him!"
How could Huo Mingyang not hate him? But, he knew that right now, Chiang Shuru was already completely enraged. If he still got angry, then it wouldn't be long before the mother and son pair would really leave from the Huo Family, right?
"Mom, don't be angry — — if you get angry and get sick, no one will bother with you at this Huo Family. Maybe that Lih Jinhsing is still secretly happy in his heart! " Huo Mingyang said with a grave expression.
"But in my heart, how could I not be angry!" Chiang Shuru gritted her teeth and said, "Let's not talk about the stocks – I'm almost going to fall ill from anger. Look at your father, even though he's clearly at home, he can't bear to spend some time with me. He was like a piece of dog skin plaster, sticking on Lih Jinhsing's body all day long, unable to be ripped off! That Lih Qiumei didn't forget to act like this even after death. She's really pissing me off! "
Huo Mingyang was also a bit angry in his heart. He didn't expect Huo Chenglieh to be so heartless to them both — it was all Lih Jinhsing's fault! If not for Lih Jinhsing's sudden appearance, everything that was within his reach would not have left him!0
"Mom, don't be angry — that Lih Jinhsing has been out for a long time. It's within reason that my dad would spend so much time with him every day." Huo Mingyang comforted her against her will.
Hearing this, Chiang Shuru hatefully said, "If I had known that Lih Jinhsing would appear in front of Huo Chenglieh one day, I wouldn't have pushed Lih Qiumei down the stairs. I would have directly caused her to give birth to this son!"
