C458 Tell Me about the Future

When Huo Mingyang arrived at the apartment, he saw Huo Chenglieh waiting outside.

Huo Chenglieh stood by the window with his back facing him. Smoke was swirling around his body, and even the corridor was filled with the smell of smoke. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he put out his cigarette and threw it into the trash can beside him. Then, he slowly turned around and looked at Huo Mingyang. Before he could finish his words, he coughed violently until his face was completely red.

Huo Mingyang opened the door with his fingerprint and said to Huo Chenglieh, "Come in." After saying that, he first walked into his own apartment. After changing his shoes, he took out a new pair of shoes from his shoe cabinet and placed them on the ground. After that, he went to the kitchen to make coffee and didn't greet Huo Chenglieh.

After Huo Chenglieh changed his shoes, he slowly walked into Huo Mingyang's apartment and looked around.

Huo Mingyang's apartment was not big. Compared to the huge Huo Family, it could even be described as a palm-sized house. However, although the apartment was small and simple, it was comfortable and cozy.

"This house of yours is not bad!" Huo Chenglieh glanced at Huo Mingyang, who was making coffee in the kitchen, and said leisurely.

Huo Mingyang did not say anything as he continued to brew the coffee. Perhaps it was because of what he had said to Huo Chenglieh this morning that made him so helpless.

Seeing that Huo Mingyang didn't say anything, Huo Chenglieh sighed and then slowly sat on a chair in the living room.

A moment later, Huo Mingyang came into the living room with two cups of coffee. He put the coffee on the table in front of Huo Chenglieh, then went to the kitchen and served a plate of delicate pastries. Then, he sat opposite Huo Chenglieh.

Neither of them spoke, except for the aroma of coffee on the table and the awkward silence.

After a long while, Huo Chenglieh took the lead and said, "I have cancer." His voice was calm, as if he was talking about someone else.

Hearing that, Huo Mingyang widened his eyes in shock. He looked at Huo Chenglieh in disbelief and mumbled to himself, "What did you say? Cancer, cancer? "

Huo Chenglieh nodded with a calm face and continued, "Yes, you did not mishear me. I have cancer, lung cancer — it was investigated two years ago. At that time, the doctor told me that the spread of cancer wasn't serious. So as not to worry my family, I didn't tell you about it. However, four months ago, when I went to the examination, the doctor said that the cancer cells in my body had increased in speed and my condition had worsened. Even if I were treated, I would only be able to live for at most two years … "

After hearing Huo Chenglieh's words, Huo Mingyang was a little shocked and was unable to recover from the shock for a long time. Because, he really didn't expect that Huo Chenglieh was already in the advanced stage of lung cancer, and he, Chiang Shuru, and even the rest of Huo Family didn't realize that — If this matter was exposed by the media, how ironic would it be!

"At that time, after I learned from my doctor that cancer cells were spreading, my only thought was to find Qiumei, because, I want to know, after all these years, after leaving me, how is she doing?" And then, I found Jinxing — I admit that I have indeed neglected the two of you in the past few days. It is normal for you to be unhappy … "

"Tell me. Ever since I was young, I've only cared about whether you listen to me or not. I care about learning from you, okay?" I admit it, I am indeed like that — but, you must know, although you are the son of I, Huo Chenglieh, the person in charge of Huo Family, is not me. The old man doesn't like you, and if you don't become a good person, then your days in the Huo Family will be even more difficult. Furthermore, there's also Huo Mingshen's existence — — I treat you strictly because I hope that you can become an outstanding person that can satisfy the old man … "

What Huo Chenglieh said was also the truth. However, the only thing he didn't say was that ever since Lih Qiumei had left, he had never learned how to love anyone, be it to Chiang Shuru or his son, Huo Mingyang.

Huo Mingyang sat there quietly. Looking at Huo Chenglieh's aged eyes, he felt as if something had tightened his heart, making it hard for him to breathe.

He knew clearly in his heart that Huo Chenglieh was already good to him — if it was another Wealthy Class family, how many people could bring their illegitimate children to and from famous banquets and let everyone in the upper class know of their scandal? Furthermore, in order for him to have the chance to inherit the Huo Family in the future, Huo Chenglieh had even attacked his other son.

The reason why he complained to Huo Chenglieh was because of his identity as the illegitimate child. If Huo Chenglieh hadn't succumbed to the old man's authority that year, and if Huo Chenglieh had married Chiang Shuru and made his name appear in the Huo Family's account book, then perhaps, he wouldn't be the current him.

Huo Mingyang was silent for a long time, and then he said with difficulty, "I know, you treat me well — I admit that I do envy Lih Jinhsing, even envy him. But if I were you, I think I'd probably react the same way. Thus, I am not qualified to blame you. "

Seeing that Huo Mingyang was finally willing to talk to him, a trace of gratification appeared on Huo Chenglieh's face.

"Regarding this matter, I am indeed not qualified to blame you. But, I am thinking, if you did not bring me back to the Huo Family back then, how would I be now? " Huo Mingyang said leisurely.

Hearing that, a hint of disappointment surfaced on Huo Chenglieh's face.

"If I had not come to the Huo Family to live, then even if I knew that my identity was that of a despised illegitimate child, I would not have been mocked for so many years by these so-called elites of upper class society. If I hadn't come to the Huo Family to live, perhaps I too am just an ordinary person, to marry, to have children, and to live an ordinary life — but after I entered the Huo Family, this kind of ordinary life was something that I could only wish for, wasn't it? " Huo Mingyang's eyes were filled with tears, but those tears didn't fall.

Looking at Huo Mingyang's appearance, Huo Chenglieh sighed, and after a long while he quietly said, "Mingyang, do you think that if you had not come to Huo Family to live, you would have been able to live an ordinary life? As long as you are my, Huo Chenglieh's, son, you are destined to live your entire life.

Hearing this, Huo Mingyang also laughed at himself — yes, even if he did not live in Huo Family back then, he would not have been able to live the life he imagined. After all, his mother was Chiang Shuru, a woman who could do anything for the sake of wealth!

If Huo Chenglieh hadn't brought him to live in Huo Family back then, he might have abandoned Chiang Shuru and him. With Chiang Shuru's personality, even if she could not enter the Huo Family's gate, she would still do everything possible to obtain a "compensation" from the Huo Family. And his existence, was a stain on Huo Family's reputation.

As long as Chiang Shuru exposed this matter to the media, and set herself up as a white lotus, even if she was the mistress, even if he was the illegitimate child, but because of the tragic abandonment, he was at a disadvantage. The person that the public denounced, even insulted, would only be Huo Chenglieh, or even Huo Family — because, whether it was the media, or the public, they would all choose to stand on the side of the weak without knowing the truth.

"You're right, even if I hadn't gone to the Huo Family back then, it would have been impossible for me to live the life of an ordinary person. Huo Mingyang said with a wry smile.

Huo Chenglieh sighed. He took out a stack of documents from the document bag and placed it in front of Huo Mingyang.1

"This is?" Seeing this, Huo Mingyang looked at Huo Chenglieh in surprise and asked in puzzlement.

"All the property in my name —" Huo Chenglieh looked at Huo Mingyang and replied slowly, "I had intended to wait until I died before you could get your hands on these property. But now, I thought, it's time to give you these things — don't you like Jing Sung? Huo Mingshen has Huo Family. If you don't have this money, what are you going to compete with Huo Mingshen for? "

What Huo Chenglieh said had indeed touched Huo Mingyang's sore spot — if he didn't have the money, how would he have the confidence to win the battle with Huo Mingshen? However, he had only spoken those words to Huo Chenglieh this morning and was determined to stop interacting with Huo Family. If he took Huo Chenglieh's possessions, wouldn't he be smacking his own face?

All of a sudden, Huo Mingyang was in a dilemma, he had a hesitant expression on his face.

Huo Chenglieh saw through his thoughts, and said slowly: "I know, these years, you have indeed lived an unhappy life, and now, since you don't want to have anything to do with Huo Family, I can understand a bit more — — Since that's the case, I respect your decision. After all, I intend to leave this place in a few days. "

"Leave? "What do you mean?" Hearing that, Huo Mingyang was even more confused.

A sweet smile appeared on his face. After a long while, he slowly said, "Right now, I don't have much time left, so I want to take this opportunity to travel around the world."

Around the world? Huo Mingyang looked at Huo Chenglieh in surprise. He knew Huo Chenglieh didn't seem like the kind of person who liked to wander around.

"Qiumei and I agreed to travel around the world together. She has been dead for many years, and I am the only one who can fulfill that promise. I'm worried that if I don't go now, I won't have a chance. " Huo Chenglieh sighed and said gloomily.

Huo Mingyang nodded and didn't say anything.

"I know that you are a person who has his own will. After I leave, you will decide for yourself your mother's fate." Saying that, Huo Chenglieh slowly stood up, "It's getting late, I won't stay any longer — you have to take good care of yourself and don't repeat what I did." Then, Huo Chenglieh slowly walked out.

"Dad!" Looking at Huo Chenglieh's back, Huo Mingyang finally couldn't help but shout, "Take care!"

Hearing that, Huo Chenglieh's footsteps paused as hot tears welled up in his eyes. He stretched out his hand to wipe his slightly moist eyes. Without turning his head back, he hurriedly walked away.

Huo Mingyang looked at the documents on the table, then raised his head and looked at Huo Chenglieh's back and sighed heavily.
